Facts only Are Wanted,

Mr.. Richardson said that while he
would have preferred the reports
called for in tn original resolution he
would be satisfied with the substitute
if it elected the facts as he was assured
it would. He was the more disposed toy
accept the substitute as the senate al
ready had adopted resolutions almost
Identical with that introduced by him.
If congress got the facts relative to
4he transport service, he said, he be-
1ieved the country would receive a
chapter OF very interesting reading.
The resolution was adopted without d.
vision.
The house then went into committee
of the whole and entered upon the con-
sideration of private pension bills.

TELLER OPPOSES SUBSIDY
Colorado Senator in Speech Gives
His Views Concerning the
Pending Measure.
SAYS RESULTS HOPED FOR WILL FAIL.
House Discusses Resolution Calling
for Reports of officers Who EXAM
ined Transport Service Between
San Francisco and ManiIn-Privnts
Pension Bills Considered.

Washington, March 17.-Rev. F. j.
Prettyman, pastor of the Mount
Vernon NJ. f. church, Washington, D.
G., pronounced the invocation at the
opening of session of the senate.
Senator Teller Speaks.
Senator Teller (Col.) then began
speech in opposition to the pending
ship subsidy bill. He maintained that
under the law the American flag
could be raised over any ship owned
in whole or in more than half by
American citizens and thus gain
whatever benefit that might give.
While he always had been in favor
of the upbuilding of the merchant
marine he could not believe that the
pending bill would accomplish the
results hoped for by its advocates.
If he believed that such results would
be achieved, as Senator Frye believed,
the would support it. To his mind it
was infinitely preferable to the sub
sidy measure presented last year.
BETTER ADOPT Old Policy.
Personally he was of opinion that
it would be better to adopt the old
policy of discriminating duties for
the upbuilding of the merchant
marine. Such a policy would be pre-
ferable, in his judgment, to the plan
presented by the present bill.
A serious objection to the pending
bill was that it did not provide for
new lines. The money paid in sub
sides, therefore, would be paid to es-
tablished lines. And yet one of the
professed objects of the bill was to
establish new lines.
The Colorado senator said that
Americans had demonstrated how to
run railroads and our methods now
were an object lesson to Europe. He
believed that the end of railroad build
ing to a great extent was at hand in
this country and that surplus money
which heretofore had gone into rail
roads from now on would go into ship
ping. If the government would deal
fairly with shipowners, he said, the
United States would have soon the
greatest shipbuidling plants in the
world. He contended the government
ought to permit its citizens to buy
ships where they could buy them
cheapest and then give them Amer
lean register. The great commerce OF
the United States then would induce
capital to go into the shipping indus
try.
Minority Report.
I Washington. March Ex-senator
berry, representing the minority of the
senate committee on commerce, pre-
scented the report in opposition to the
pending ship subsidy bill. Most of the
points have been covered in speeches
in the senate. The minority deny the
accuracy of both the predictions and
4he facts in the ma jority report. They
Mrge that the bill is wrong in principle,
and declare that 1T will utterly fail in
She accomplishment of its professed
objects They also say that while it
is not so complicated as the subsidy
bill of the Fifty-sixth congress it is in
some respects even more objection

PATRICK J. McHUGH.

Democratic Candidate for Sheriff.
Patrick J. McHugh, of Aberdeen,
democratic nominee for sheriff, was born
in Canada in 1868, and came to the
United States when 16 years of age, and
has resided in Chehalis county since
1891.
Mr.. McHugh has been engaged in log
ging ever since he came to this county,
working in camps for others, loggi ng for
himself and in partnership with other
parties, and it is no small testimonial to
his integrity, geniality and square meth
DDS that his strongest supporters for the
Office of sheriff are those who either
worked with him, or for him, or who
have had business dealings with him.
There is not a logging camp in the
county that does not contain friends OF
P. J. McHugh, and they are his friends
because they know him. If elected-of
which there is little room for doubt--he
possesses all the qualifications to make
the best sheriff Chehalis county ever
had.

PETER F. CLARK.
Democratic Nominee for County
Commissioner, 2nd District,

Democratic Nominee for County
Commissioner, 2nd District.
Peter F. Clark, of Aberdeen, demo.
cratic nominee for county commissioner
for the second district, was born at
Hamilton, Canada, of American parents,
in 1S45, and, when quite small, his par.
ents returned to the United States, set
Ting in New York state. In 1856 he
moved west with his parents, who located
in the state of Michigan, where the SUBJ
ject of this article resided until 1888,
when he came to Aberdeen, and followed
his trade, moulder, in the Aberdeen
foundry until 1896 In that year he was
appointed postmaster of Aberdeen. and
held that Office until 1899.
AS postmaster, Mr.. Clark came in d.
rect contact with the people of this city,
and 80 great was the satisfaction given
by him in that position that he has held
the position of assistant under his re-
publican successor until the present
time, and, but for his political beliefs,
might hold the position indefinitely, and
it has been said that if he would consent
to alter his politics he would have been
reappointed postmaster when his term
expired. But Mr.. Clark is not demo-
crat for revenue, he believes in the poll
cies of that party, and would not stultify
himself for any pos ton. He retires
from the postoffice December l.
Mr.. CLARK has served on the city coun-
Gil with credit to himself and to the
benefit of the city, and served one term
as city treasurer, with that degree of
capability and honesty which has char
acterized him in whatever place or posi-.
ton he is placed in. As postmaster, city
treasurer, councilman or in the foundry,
he is the same courteous, genial Peter F..
Clark, and it is safe to assume that he
will receive eight-tenths of the total vote
of Aberdeen for the Office that seeks him
for he was extremely reluctant to &C.
cept the nomination for the place, and,
had the republicans named an Aberdeen
man for this position, Mr.. Clark's name
would not appear against him. Nothing
but the necessity for this city having a
representative on the board of county
commissioners would have induced Mr..
Clark to run for the position.

ACIOIAoy.
B. G. Cheney, democratic nominee for
county attorney, was born at Boudion-
ham, Maine, in 1860. where he grew to
manhood. He was educated in the pub.
lie schools, and is graduate of Bates
college, at Lewiston, Maine. Upon
graduating he adopted the profession of
school teaching, which he followed many
years with, marked success.
After teaching several years in his
native state, Mr.. Cheney removed to
Minnesota, where he followed his chosen
profession for SIX years, during four
years OF which he was principal Of the
city schools of Audubon. In 1889 he
came to Washington as president of the
Benjamin p. Cheney Academy. at
Cheney, WASH, which position he held
until the academy was turned over to the
state as a normal school. Mr.. Cheney
was rendered the presidency of the
normal school, but, his health not being
good, he came to Western Washington,
and taking land claim on North river,
he accepted the position of principal Of
the Cosmopolis schools, which position
he held until elected county clerk in
1896.
Since that date Mr.. Cheney requires
no introduction to those who have since
been residents OF Chehalis county. His
ability and integrity was recognized by
his reelection in 1898. and when he COM
pleted his second term, it is safe to say
that no official ever left better record
behind him. During the four years he
was clerk, Mr.. Cheney studied law, his
office being really an excellent law school.
At the close of his second term Of Office,
he passed an examination for admission
to the bar in such a highly creditable
manner as to call for the congratulations
of the supreme court. For the past two

in the produce business at Hoquiam,
and here he has shown himself success

farmer, and has built up a thriving bust

democratic ticket, the nomination came
to Mr.. Foster unsought. He does not
need the Office, but, if elected will give
it his earnest attention, and it would be
difficult to find a man in the third dis

Coming to the United States when
young man, Mr.. Murray soon pushed for
the West determined to make himself

honesty of purpose and determination
to succeed.
Mr.. Murray arrived in Chehalis county
with $3.50 in money and wife and small
family. Taking up some government

settlers then in that vicinity for the sup
port of his family, and labored when he
could at clearing farm out of the will.
derness. As an example of the difficulties
ne had to contend with, it may be said
it took him three years to obtain suffi-
cient cash with which to file on his
land, holding mere squatter's title in
the meanwhile.
Today, Mr.. Murray is the owner of 1853
acres of fine land, in a we'll improved
condition, and residence in Elma,
where he lives in the winter on account
of the school facilities, and does not owe
a dollar that he cannot pay on demand.
Meantime he has raised family OF
seven children, and has made a reputa-
ton for honesty and business capacity
with all he has come in contact with.
The first commissioner district is the
farming district of the county, and no
man in its borders is better acquainted
with it's needs, or more qualified to care
for them than Honest Patrick Murray.
