Mr.. Morgan's Argument in

THE SIX PROPOSITIONS
REASONS FOR SELECTING THE

Mr.. DeArmond Opposes the Cuban
Reciprocity Bill and Stirs
Up the House.

Soon after the Senate convened today
bill authorizing the county commissioners
OF Crow Wing county. Mimi to construct
bridge across the Mississippi river be-
tween Pine river and Dean Brook was
passed
Other bills were passed as follows:
Granting to the Mobile. Jackson and Kan
sas City railroad the right to use a tract
of land held for lighthouse purposes on
Choctaw Point, Mobile county, Ala; pro-
Viding for the transfer of the title to the
military reservation at Baton Rouge, La,

The resolutions offered by Mr.. Culberson

MI. Morgan Advocates Isthmian Canal
Mr.. Morgan (Ala). chairman of the COM
mittee on isthmian canals. at the conclu-
sioE of routine business. addressed the SEN
ate upon the Hepburn bill providing for a
Nicaraguan canal.
lie assumed. in beginning. that the Sem
ate was convinced of the indispensable
character of a canal-that 1t was a ma
d
choice of methods and a comparison of
national advantages which was left to de-
eide all questions of financial ability, of
private interests, of political bias, having
been relegated to the rear by command
OF a free, honest and powerful people. 1t
is TO reach the logical results that should
follow the actual merits of the claim of
either canal route, IN deciding the prefer
enCe. that / will try to present an outline
of the questions that now require dis
cuSSion."
Stated in Six Propositions.
Mr. Morgan said the subject could be
stated in six propositions: Investigation was
complete and nothing could be gained by
delay: 1t was a choice of two routes
Panama or Nicaragua: the controlling fac
tors were the success of construction and
the best interests of the United States the
control of selection should not be affected
all things considered account of
pense, say within limit of $50, OD0, 900; the
praCticability of constructing the Nicara-
qua canal was beyond a shadow of doubt
and within the estimates: If the Bohio dam
at Panama should fail the only hope of a
canal would perish, while the failure of
one dam on the San Juan river would mean
construction at another point.
Mi Morgan said none of the three COM
missions had expressed a doubt or appre-
hensiOn as to the Nicaragua route. The
supplemental report of the last commission
posed gain to the government in cost of
81. $50 TO4
Mr.. Morgan spoke of the clouds of doubt
concerning the Panama route. He also Sa id
the political conditions of Nicaragua and
Costa Rica were more favorable than those
OF Columbia He said the commission had
no authority to accept an offer from the
Panama Canal Company.

DEATH OF GOV. SHEPHERD.
The Man Who Made Washington q
Magnificent City Passes Away
at BatopiIas, Mexico.

Washington, Sept. ia private tel
egram received from Batopilas, Next
co, announces the death there Friday
morning of Alexander r. Shepherd,
who was vice-president of the board
of public works of the District of
Colombia during the territorial gov
eminent of the district in 1871, and
two years later governor of the dis
trict. He was 81 years of age. The
cause of death was peritonitis,
brought on by an attack of appendi-
citis. Mrs. Shepherd, accompanied by
her son-in-law and daughter, Dr.. and
Mrs. Frank Merchant, who reside in
Washington, were informed of the Sc
rious illness of the governor Thurs
day, and left at once for Batopilas.
Gov. Shepherd, as the executive Of
ficer of the board of public works, in
spite of vigorous opposition, began
and successfully continued improve
ments in all parts of the city, with
the result that Washington became a
magnificent capital. To the governor
is given credit for nipping in the bud
a project for the removal of the cap
ital to some western city. which was
warmly agitated at one time. At the
expiration of his term as governor,
in company with New York capital
lists, he purchased the Old Hacienda
San Miguel silver mines. at Batopilas,
which in later years have proved
profitable, and there he has since re-
sided. He leaves q widow and seven

NO CASTE OVER THERE.

Oh! we who poise a lordly head
In naughty gold-created pride,
Who walk the streets with kingly tread
And brush the honest poor aside,
Who think the toilers but the scum
OF earth and always in the way, :
Know you the time will surely come
When you will be as poor as they?
That death will level king and slave?
There1l be no caste beyond the grave.
You look with proud and cold disdain
On those who toll for daily bread;
The clanking of the labor chain
You hear with careless toss of head.
You never shake a poor mans hand
Unless you have an ak to grind
Some new ambition to be famed
From coal to flame. but keep in mind
Death knows no master, knows no slave
Theren be no caste beyond the grave.
This life is as a quick-drawn breath
Compared unto eternity:
IT'S but a span from birth to death,
Then out upon the shoreless sea
We drift, and there the man of pride
Who was a king upon the earth
Must float as equal side by side
With fellow man of humber birth.
He cannot ride a private wave
There'l be no caste beyond the grave.
Till crack of doom wise men may preach
OF universal brotherhood,
With tongues inspired may strive to teach
That principle so grand and good,
But just as long as gold is good
And purSe-pride sways the human heart
A battlement both high and broad
Win keep the rich and poor apart;
But death will equal lord and slave
There'n be no caste beyond the grave.

To Develop Truck Growing.

The advantages of the soil and

growing is now attracting the atten-

development of this industry in the
near future seems to be assured. A
large concern in Pennsylvania is now
in negotiation for 10000 acres of
land in Southeast Mississippi and in
the prairie country in the northeast
ern section. The plan upon which
the company proposes to operate is
to buy up tracts of land suitable for
truck farming and then lease out the
lands in small farming tracts to
thrifty farmers. The land is to be
leased ont on easy terms, and they
will also be furnished with all the
money needed to make and market
their crops, the concern agreeing to
market all of the produce grown by
the farmer for a small commission
fee.
