Attended st. Patrick's Church-Some
Went Horseback Riding With
the President.

Washington, May 26.-From indica-
tions> last night the senate will de-
vote another full week, if not a longer
time, to consideration Of the Philip
pine bill The prediction is freely
made that a vote will not be reached
before the middle of the following
week.
1t is not expected that there will
be any session of the senate on Fri
day, as that is Memorial day and a
holiday. The practice of the senate
in the matter Of adjournment on Me-
mortal day has not been uniform and
khere may be an effort to keep the
senate in session, but this effort viii
be antagoniZed.
The continued deferment of the
time for taking vote on the Philip
pine measure has caused considera-
Die abatement in the preparation for
discussion of the Nicaragua canal
bill and the Cuban reciprocity bill,
which will be taken up next in success
sion or jointly. The beet sugar peo-
pie predict months debate on the
Nicaragua bill, but this prediction is
not in accord with the views of the
advocates of the Nicaragua bill or it's
opponents in the Isthmian canal COM
mittee. Both these elements are now
claiming a majority and are saying
that the sooner the vote is reached
the better they will be satisfied. The
beet sugar men, however, are count
ing confidently on the cooperation Of
the side which finds itself in the mi
nority in the matter of postponing the
vote on the canal bill. In other
words, the beet sugar advocates well
come the introduction Of any ques-
ton which will defer consideration
Of the Cuban bill, since they think
that there will be no Cuban legisla-
ton at all if the taking up Of that
question can be postponed until after
the passage of all the appropriation
bills.
The appropriation bills should be
passed before the first of July in or
der to supply money for the support
of the government after that date.
aid they consequently expect that
considerable. time will be given dur
ing the month Of June to the appro-
priation bills remaining undisposed
of. They count confidently on the
early adjournment of congress after
the appropriation bills are out of the
way, and they hint that if after that
time there is an effort to pass the
Cuban bill it will be incumbent on
the friends Of the bill to maintain a
quorum in the senate. ut would be
hardly fair" said beet sugar Repub-
lican senator Sunday in discussing
the contingency mentioned, ito expect
the opponents of the proposed reduc-
ton to assist in prolonging session
in midsummer for the purpose of
passing q measure which they do not
want to see enacted into law"
There is still a considerable Re-
publican element in the senate OPP
posed to the tariff reduction, and II
is asserted by the beet sugar men
that the IS Republicans necessary to
pass the bill have not yet been sc
cured. 1t is declared, however, that
practically unanimous vote should
be secured for rebate measure.
The Rochambeau monument was
unveiled Saturday.

Better Chinese Oppose 1t.

Pekin. May 2G.-The failure Of the
efforts Of German firm to secure
exclusive rights Of selling opium
throughout the Chinese empire. for
which privilege the firm in question
offered to pay the Chinese govern
ment $15,000,000 a year. appears to
be assured on account Of the opposi-
ton to the proposal Of the better
class Of the ministers and the palace
officials.

Washington, May 26.-The mem
bers Of the French mission which
came to Washington to attend the
ceremonies incident to the unwilling
Of the Rochambeau statue finished
their visit here yesterday, and last
night left the city for Niagara Falls
on their weeks tour Of the east be-
fore sailing for home. There were no
formal functions on the program for
the day, but the visitors found every
minute Of their time occupied In at
tending divine services, returning nu-
merous calls, Official and otherwise,
and in drives about the city and sub
urbs.
Heard Cardinal Gibbons Preach.
Ambassador Cambon accompanied
the members Of the mission to ST
Patrick's church at 10 o'clock in the
morning, where low mass was said
by the Rev. DR.. Mangien, of Balti-
more, the Right Rev. Monsignor
Rocker. of the Apostolic delegation,
and other priests assisting. The Wis.
itors wore the full uniform of their
rank. Cardinal Gibbons preached a
short sermon. In part, he spoke of the
French missionaries who had crossed
the seas to America, and preached
the gospel to the aboriginal inhabi-
tants, carrying the torch Of faith in
one hand, and the torch Of civiliza-
ton in the other. It was meet and
proper that the sons of France should
assemble in the temple of God to give
thanks to the Almighty for the great
things which had been accomplished
by their countrymen in this hemis-
phere, in the cause of religion and
civilization.
Several Of the party, including the
Count and Countess de Rochambeau
and the Count de Lafayette, visited
the beautiful Arlington cemetery Sun
Gay afternoon. and Fort Myer, nearby.
Got Wet Riding With the President.
A quite unexpected feature of the
afternoon, and one which pleased the
visitors very much, was an Invitation
Eom President Roosevelt to accom-
pany him and several others on a
horseback ride. The entire party as.
sembled in front of the White House
about o'clock, the visitors in their
uniforms making a very pretty pic.
ture in the bright afternoon sunlight.
A photograph was taken of the group
while there. The president guided
the party through the northern sec.
ton of the city until they reached the
Geological park. While in the park
a storm began to gather and the party
came home at lively canter. The
rain overlook them, however, and be
fore reaching their stopping place the
entire party was drenched. Those OF
horseback were President Roosevelt,
his son Theodore and daughter Alice
Secretary Root and Senator Lodge
am the following members CT the Ro-
chambeau mission: General Bru-
gere, Vice Admiral Fournier, General
Chalendar and Captain Lasson.
The party left Washington at half
past o'clock last night for Niagara
Falls, via the Pennsylvania railroad.
Those going included all the members
Ct the mission, Ambassador and
Madam Cambon and the members of
the staff of the French embassy and
the presidents commission.

Dodgiug tae Icsue.

The dominant issue in the APP
preaching congressional election
throughout the country is the regu.
lation of the trusts. The wage
Garner, the tradesman, the farmer,
the small dealer and operator see
in the great combinations Of capitol
the passing of individual enterprise.
These great combinations or trusts
as they are called stand together
FOR their own protection and per-
petuation, thus forming a gigantic
octopus, that brushes out competi-
ton, arbitrarily regulates the prices
not only of its own output, but de
;ermines the cost of materials it
purchases and places its merciless
heel upon all grades and classes of
labor. Mr.. F. A. Godcharles, nail
manufacturer of Milton, and the
Republican candidate for Congress
in this district, is a member of the
nail trust. This association con-
trolls the output of the cut nail
factories of this country, and the
evidence is in the possession of the
writer, under their own signature,
that it eXtorts an additional profit Of
forty-one cents a keg more from
the home consumer than it does
from nails exported iuto foreign
countries for the use of foreigners.
Mr.. Godcharles realizes his po-
sition and is lodging the issue. He
is resorting to every possible plan
that his fertile and INSCRIPTIONS
Imagination can suggest to keep
the attention of the voters from the
only real issue in the campaign
that effects their interests. If Mr..
Godcharles could be elected. of
which fortunately there is not even
remote possibility, he could be
depended upon to support every
measure before Congress that would
strengthen the grip OF these monop-
olies upon the people, and oppose
every bill that was intended for
their protection and relief. A vote
for Godcharles means a vote to
continue the extortion of the meat
trust, the coal trust, and the other
trusts that have increased the living
expenses of the wage-earner over
forty per cent. upon nineteen per
cent. increase i'll wages. The
workingman votes with his eyes
open. If he by his ballot elects to
put the corporation yoke around
his neck, he ought not to grumble
or complain when it becomes op-
pressive. 1t is there by his own
act.

To the Democratic Voters of
Columbia County.

The work Of the preliminary can
vass is over. The committee men
of the several districts have render
ed most valuable aid III organizing
the county. Public meetings have
been held in nearly every township,
and the large attendance has shown
that the people are aroused, and
that great interest is felt in the COM
ing election. The thanks of the
party are especially due to the speak
ers who have given their time and
services, going through the county
and ably discussing the issues that
confront the people of this common
wealth. 1t is now in your hands,
and the'result of the election next
Tuesday depends entirely upon
you. With a full vote Columbia
county will give Patlison and the
whole ticket a good majority, anc
we will maintain our reputation a:
one of the banner Democratic
counties OF the state. Let there bC

Perjury or What ?

There are a good many ways OF
running political canvass, but
some of the methods resorted to in
the present campaign cannot inspire
very much respect among the bet
ter class of people. Four persons
have been found, who for a money
consideration have been willing to
make a statement under oath that
is intended to convey to the public
a false impression. J. w. Vankirk,
O. Stevenson, John O. Koch and
Charles Montague have made afh-
davits that they were paid eighty
nine cents for a days work, by the
Milton Car Works. Two hundred
and one of the most reputable en-
ployees that ever worked at the
Milton car works voluntarily state
over their signatures that eighty
nine cents was never paid Tor
days work by that company, and
that is supplemented by the afIi-
davit Of Robert NJ Longmore, one
of Miton's 5 most respected aud re.
liable citizens and business men,
who states that he was pay master
at the car works for a period of
thirty years and that eighty-nine
cents was never paid for day
work.
To a man who hasn't any con-
scientious scruples himself there is
really nothing in the way to pre-
vent him from purchasing affidavits
when they can be had at bargain
counter prices. Here is an affidavit
that will explain itself:
NORTHUMBERLAND COUNTY, S. S.
Before me the subscriber, JUS
tice of the peace in and for said
county, personally came John c.
Karchner, of the Borough of Milton
in said county, who being duly
sworn according to law doth depose
and say that he had on October 20,
1902, conversation with J. o.
Koch and that in the course OF this
conversation the said J. O. Kocf
did state that he had received five
dollars (S5) for signing an affidavit
stating that Murray. Dougal &
Company Limited had paid eighty
nine cents a day; which affidavit i.

Fisher was entitled to the nomina-
tion from the south side. Alter
full hearing in open court, it has
been so decided, and his name has
been ordered to be printed oil the
ballot in the regular Democratic
column.
To abide by the rules Of the party
is Democratic; 10 abide by the law
as proclaimed by the courts is
Democratic. To refuse to do these
things is neither Democratic nor
good-citizeuship. To override the
laws and the rights Of the public,
and then ask the people what they
are going to do about it, is one Of
the great reasons in this campaign
why we are trying to drive Quay
ism from the State.
Democrats, what are you going
to do about it, Are you going to
override the rules of your party,
and ignore the decisions OF the
courts? If so, you are encouraging
state of anarchy in the Demo
cratic party in Columbia County.
You are helping 10 establish pre-
cedent for overturning the party
rules at any and every election.
You are helping to stifie the party
cry of stick -to-the ticket" You
are encouraging and inviting a 60
aS-you.please habit in voters tha,
will be ruinous to the Democracy
as a time honored organization.
We are not pleading William II
Fishers cause. We are pleading
the cause Of Democracy, and we
are impelled to do it, because TIL
less our rules are observed and our
organization kept up OH SOUND
Democratic principles, we can see
only disaster and defeat i'll more
than one county Office in the future
1t is our duty to sound this warn
ing note, and we have done It, The
responsibility rests with the voters,

One Of the very thin pleas that
are being made in the effort to get
votes away from Mr.. Dickerman,
the Democratic congressional candi-
date, is that he is a Democrat, and
if elected, being representative of
the minority patty, he wonld have
no influence at the capitol and
would not te able to accomplish any
thing for his constituents. What
bosh. If it were true, what a COM
mentary upon our Republican
government Elias Deemer is a
Republican congressman from the
Lycoming- Clinton district and the
Williamsport .Snn points out that
while be was getting three rural
delivery routes i'll his district, our
congressman, Rufus x. Polk, Dem
ocrat, was plastering the counties
of his district over with rural
routes. 1t is true that Republican
craftsmanship in Pennsylvania has
reached pretty low ebb, but it is
not quite so bad yet, that a man o
merit and character cannot get {
hearing because his politics is out
of gee with those in power. Sticl

Columbia County is highly
honored in being so well and so
conspicuously represented in state
politics as she is by Hon. w. T..
Greasy, chairman OF the Demo
cratic State Committee. The value
of his public services is deservedly
recognized by his retention year
after year as state chairman, and
his popularity at home is shown by
his being returned to the legisla
ture FIVE times in succession. He

Warm Springs is one of tht most
noted resorts in the south, located
in Pine Mountains 1900 feet above the
Sea, the air is always cool and dry.
There is no malaria nor mosquitoes
and the bathing is the finest in the
world. The baths at Warm Springs
have a great reputation to those run
down and needing some agency to
restore them to perfect health, Warm
Springs can not be too highly recon-
mended. Mr.. Chas. L. David the pro-
prietor is we'll known and has the
reputation of conducting a resort in the
right way. The hotel is well kept and
the rates are very reasonable. Round
trip tickets are sold at low rates.

FOR BI-STATE CHAMPIONSHIP.

COrdele and Gainesville, Represent

VaIdosta.
Valdosta, Ca, Aug. 1.-The most ex-
citing game of ball that has been
played here in years was lost by the
locals to Cordele this evening by a
score of to 6. Two wild throws gave
Cordele four runs in one inning, giving
them the game. Splendid work was
done by both clubs. Arrangements
were perfected this evening for series
of games by Cordele, which is the
champion of Georgia, and Gainesville,
the champions of Florida. The two
teams are to play here next Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday for the
championship of the two states and
purse of $400. Neither teams has been
defeated this year and large crowds
are expected to come to Valdosta and
from adjoining cities to witness the
games. The railroads will give special
rates to Yaldosta for the games.
