Trouble over a House.

Charles Napier brought suit in the dis
trict court to restrain Hollenbeck Bros. OF
this city and W. r. Baughn OF Harlan from
moving a house on his property near Mos
quito creek. Napier sets forth In his petit
tion that the Great Western railroad is pre-
pairing to build a trestle right through his
property and that the defendants are pre-
pairing to remove the house to the west side
of the trestle and that II permitted to do
so he would be unable to move 1t back to
its original site. He asks for mandatory
injunction. The Great Western brought
condemnation proceedings against Napier,
who was constructing a large residence on
his property and the sherin's jury awarded
him 50. 100. which Included the value OF the
house. The Great Western. It is said. sold
the house to Baughn, who contracted with
Hollenbeck Bros. to move It TO a lot on
Harrison street in this city. The railroad
appealed to The district court from the
sherin's jury award and Napier takes the
position that he is still owner Of the house
until that matter OF damages Is settled.

message lie published here tonight and will

The message opens by giving thanks to the
Almighty for His assistance in carrying out
the work Of obtaining Cuban independence,
and asks divine aid In the establishment OF
a firm and stable government.
Never did a people fight with more per-
severance" says the message, land sacri-

No people, therefore, are more entitled to
see their just efforts rowne with sue
cess. Together with our own heroism is
the attitude Of the great people impelled
by their own love OF liberty to put them
selves on our side in our tenacious fight
for the independence Of the country. Their
motive was one Of generous sentiment, pure
and disinterested in origin.
'Impelled by this sentiment, the powerful
republic OF the north recognizes through
its illustrious president. the republic of
Cuba. The promise formally made has been
carried out. In this moment, when we feel
our right as an Independent nation, it is
impossible to suppress our gratitude to
the United States.

A SURPRISING RLUNDER.

That the House postoffice committee
should agree TO report in favor Of abolish
ing the present acceptable carrier system
for rural delivery and substituting a con-
tract system similar TO the star routes is
a genuine surprise and a grievOus disap-
pointment. The present system OF carriers
is satisfactory and will insure a far better
service than any contract system, for the
reason that the carrier is an emplOye Of
the government and can be removed when
his service is not satisfactory. On the
other hand. the postoffice department can
have no such hold upon a contractor. even
il the law requires that he shall reside
within the territory in which the route
is located. A man who can give the bond
will secure the contracts and then turn
them over 10 class of men who will not
render good service. Having no control
over the general business of the contractor,
a carrier may be the travelling agent of a
firm TO sell and deliver it's goods; he may
even become a retailer of whisky, as were
some carriers until forbidden by the
postal authorities in Washington. Such a
change would prove an injustice to hun
dreds of men who have become carriers
by leaving other employments To hold
their places they must bid against others
who will have an advantage in that they
can make low bids with almost a certainty
that the carriers who are in the service
and who have an equipment for the serv-
ice will pay the outside bidder bonus to
continue the business at so low rate that
an efficient service cannot be given for
the money unless package delivery should
be the source of considerable revenue.
Nothing can be said in favor of the
change, a fact which the committee favor
ing the scheme practically admits when
its members express a fear that it will be
difficult to persuade the House that their
scheme has merit. The contract rate, the
maximum for star routes. is s24 mile per
annum, or about $500 for a twenty-five
mile route. II probably does not cost so
much under the present system. a rad
zeal change in the character of the service.

TEN of contractors, would go far to de-
moralize the rural delivery In fact. the
longer the proposed charge is considered
the more numerous and serious the objec-
tions to it.
The rural postal delivery is the most
useful extension of the postal service which
could be made. Wherever established it
meets with great favor, and in time it can
make the postal service of the country a
Therefore, the Postoffice Department
should keep this service within its control
and Congress should vote a liberal compen-
sation to the carriers in order to secure
efficient service.

THE FILIPINO MEMORIAL.

The memorial of the Federal party Of the
Philippines to Congress is a very interest
ing document. 1t was transmitted through
Governor Taft and the secretary of war
The phraseology of those parts of the
memorial which are quoted and the points
as summarized argue very considerable in
telligence and culture on the part of those
who framed it, with apparently a just APP
probation of the benefits likely to be real
lied under American government. In the
absence of any evidence to the contrary
it should be treated as a sincere express
sion. and no doubt Governor Taft so re-
CARDS it or he would not have transmitted
it TO Congress. Some Of it's statements
make strongly against those Americans
who are clamoring for the independence of
the Philippines. Among other things it
says that 1.-THE attack by the Filipinos upon
the sovereignty of the United States was
brought about through a misunderstanding
and not through hatred of American SOW
ereignty;" that "out of sixty provinces and
districts now exists in only two" that
ito grant independence to the Philippines
would be to hand the islands over to dis
order and to anarchy, to destruction and
to chaos" that from an exhaustive study
of both the Americans and the Filipinos
the trainers of the memorial are convinced
sit is the intention of the two peoples that
they should never be disunited." These
statements coming from a party composed
of the educated class in the Philippines
are very significant. Even Senator Hoar
will hardly sneer at them.
For the rest the memorial is a strong
appeal for annexation to and incorpora-
ton in the United States and for the COM
plete establishment of civil government as
soon possible After admitting the in
evitable dangers of independence the
memorial says: Federation or annexation
would settle all these difficulties by con-
centrating the interest of the Filipino peo-
pie upon education and labor" The plea
for annexation and for civil government
is made in way that must command the
attention of Congress. The memorial goes
too far in attempting TO outline the form
of government that should be provided for
the Philippines, though the plan proposed
does not differ materially from the terri
torial form of government so familiar to
Americans. But this is a matter for Con-
gress to decide, and there need be no fear
but it will decide wisely. The memorial
closes with an appeal for the speedy root
ing out of the friars, who, it says, con
stitute element which are visibly OPP
posed to the Filipino people securing the
noble ends gained by the Constitution of
the United States This reasonable re-
quest should be complied with as soon as
possible Altogether the memorial is an in
teresting and instructive document.

no surprise, as the facilities for planning
and executing such deeds from this country

New York police have made an official
statement of the facts to the italian am
bassador at Washington. 1t is not known
whether any of the conspirators all of
