fsneclal 20 rhe Post.N

Washington. June 13.--"If II be In order,
MI President, l move that the document
just read be referred 70 the republican
caucus"
President Roosevelt sent special mes
sage urging Cuban reciprocity TO congress
today, and the somewhat 'facctous motion
quoted above was made by Mr. Builey after
the message had heen rend In the senate.
Tho democrats and the beet.sugar men
smiled broadly. but the admlnistrationists
could not see the humor OF the remark.
The presidents action In sending In this
message was a fuhllment of the predtc-
tlons made in these dispatches Wednesday
night, when It was stated that he would
appeal to the members of his party In con
gross 70 stand bv him on the reciprocity
matter. II Is significant In every way and
It has already had the effect OF intensity.
Ing the feeling, which has been kept up
to n particularly high pitch ever since the
disclosures made in the Thrrbcr testimony
before the senate committee Wednesday.
Both sides realize that a crisis Is at hand
md that the development OF the next few
days will be fruught with consequences
which will go long way toward deter.
mining the future of the now dominant
party.
There was absolutely nothing remarkable
about ths message. II was not concilia-
tory. II was not strenuous either. II was
simply repltltion Of tine arguments that
have been put forth by the admlnlstra-
tionists ever since the Cuban reciprocity
question came up, coupled with au appeal
TO the party to stand by the administers
ton" The presidents friends deny that

RICH FIND AT OALENA.
CAVERN Reveals Twenty-Foot Vein
of Lead.

Galena, Kas., Dec. pa big cave
in occurred on the New York Zinc
Company's ground today on the lot
being mined by Downing & Sons,
in which it exposed rich vein of
lead heretofore undiscovered. The
vein is about twenty feet in thick
ness and is exposed about three
fourths of the way around the en-.
tire circle. Millions of pounds of
lead are in sight. This cavein is
beneficial, an exception to the rule,
on account of the exposure made
and is causing no little excitement.
Many are now anxious to purchase
the lease.

GOV. cRAWHoRD,s IpRA.


Governor Crawford has some we'll
defined ideas Of HE own regarding
what Liquidation 10 needed TO be
passed by the coming Legislature.
The following from the governors
pen appeared in Sundays Topeka
Capital:
To the Editor of the Capital:
In my opinion, Legislation provid-
ing for the resubmission of the
prohibitory amendment is of the
fret and highest importance to the
state and people of Kansas. The
prohibition law 10 a delusion, a
cheat and a fraud. It leads to in
temperance, high taxes, hypocrisy,
dishonesty and perjury.
Second. A stringent law should
be enacted forbidding the killing
or trapping of birds of all kinds
except the hawk and damned" lit
tie English sparrow. Where birds
are plentiful insects are scarce. One
quail will consume a thousand
bugs and other grain destroying
insects In single day; and many
other birds are equally valuable to
the farmer. BY protecting the birds
the state protects it's leading in
dustry.
Third The law pertaining to our
state institutions and public
schools should be revised. The
state institutions are burdehsome
in the extreme. Our public school
system, insofar az the common
schools are concerned, is all right.
1t is the duty of the state to give
every child good common school
education. That is all that should
be required of the tax payers and
that is all that most of the tax pay
ers who are struggling to secure
comfortable homes for their fami-
Lies can afford to do. Those who
wish to give their children a high
school or collegiate education
should do at their own expense.
The high school should either be
abolished or supported by those
who patronize it. There are many
other matters of reform and needed
that might be sug-
gested, but the governor and legis-
lature will take care of them, and
do, no doubt, what is best for all

Born in Germany, he became later

where through his persistent economy

character in Illinois politics. Fsl-

not recognized at its true worth, and
his patriotism was often questioned

A Few DAYS ago little, red

Kansas who has lately achieved some
military notorlety in the Philippines,

ne was invited to take dinner at the

place where they serve oysters on the
half shell, drink poor whiskey and
smoke cheap cigars.

bringing in a verdict of guilty. The
attorneys in the case were the same
as 10 the case of the People vs.. Dan

1--WE understand they were each

There was a shooting scrape in
Pearl last Sunday. We could not
get particulars, but the main facts
are these: A man named Morey
who is recognized as a would-be
bad man, got on some kind of tear
and some say he got a gun, while
others report that he had only {
club, and started after row. III,
soon came in collision with miner,
named Henderson who shot ut him
hitting him in the hip. A DIR. from
Encampnent being there that night
dressed the wound and we suppose
everything is now quiet AT least
no reports Of any further trouble
hare come down.
