Rural free delivery service is no
longer in the experimental stage it
has become fixed policy. The re-
suits following its introduction have
fully justified the Congress in the
large appropriations made for the
establishment and extension. The
average yearly increase In post o.
flee receipts in the rural districts of
the country is about two per cent.
We are now able, by actual results,
to show that where rural free -deliv-
cry service has been established to
such an extent as to enable us TO
make comparisons the yearly increase
has been upward of ten per cent.
On November /, 1902. II $50 ru-
raj free. delivery routes had been es-
tablished and were in operation,
covering about one-third of the ter
ritory OF the United States available
for rural free delivery service. There
are now awaiting the action OF the
Department peuons and applica-
tons for the establishment # 10.
748 additional routes. This shows
conclusiyely the want which the es
Enlistment of the service has me,
and the need of further extending
1t as rapidly as possible. 1t is Just
ihed both by the financial results
and by the practical benefits to our
rural populations it brings the men
who live on the soil into close rela-
tons with the active business world;
it keeps the farmer in daily
touch with the markets; it is po
tential educational force; it enhances
the value of farm property, makes
farm life far pleasanter and less iso-
lated, and will do much to check the
undesirable current from country to
city.
1t is to be hoped that the Con.
gress will make liberal appropria-
tons for the continuance of the ser
vice already established and for its
further extension.

Through the efforts of DIR. !. N.
Simpson, professor of Anatomy and
Physiology, arrangements have been
made by which all of the medical
work done by students at West Vir-
ginia University will be accepted
without examination by one of the
eastern medical colleges of the first
class. Negotiations are so pending
for the utilization of the University
medical department with the med
ical college referred to, so that all
of the laboratory work ia full med.
ical course may be done at Morgan
town and the hospital work at the
medical college. Young men in
West Virginia who contemplate
studying medicine will find these
arrangements greatly to their advan
tage, as the laboratory facilities at
the University are admirable, and
the cost to the student at the Uni
versity is but fraction of what it IS
at the medical colleges, The Univer
sity instructors giving courses in
this department are; ]. N. Simpson

Paris, Nov. 9.-The government is
taking precautions to handle another
outbreak on the part of the striking
miners in case the decision reached
last night to continue the strike is
followed by violence. Troops were ac-
tive in the mining regions through
out the day but no serious disorders
have been reported as yet. The au-
thorities believe that the crisis in the
strike is near and that the next TWEEN
tyfour hours will settle the question
whether the men hold to their de-
cision to continue the movement or
straggle back to the mines.
Following the decision of the miners
congress to continue the strike there
were disorderly occurrences in Lens

airy charged repeatedly a crowd of
$1,000 riotous miners and succeeded
In preventing them from advancing.
Considerable minor damage was done.
At Courrieres (Pas de Calais) houses
Oh non-strikers were sacked and a
number of coal WAGONS were burned.
A clash between strikers and gen.
darmes and cavalry is reported from
Clermont Ferrand (Puy de Dome); 1t
was not attended with serious results.
From some mining centers it is re-
ported that the miners are likely to
return to work tomorrow in spite of
the decision of the congress to the
contrary
1t Is reported here from Domain, De-
partment du Nord, that at a meeting
OF 1000 miners held there to-day it was
voted to continue the strike. Denair

ISLAND POLITICS.
Seems That Our New Possessions Are
in Line with us.

Madison, Wis, Nov. 9.-Senator ].
C. Soooner has decided to call Pres
ident Roosevelt's attention to the re-
ports OF political Irregularities or OUT
RACES in the Island of Porto Rico, and
probably will ask that an official in
vestigation be made. Senator Spooner
left for Washington last night, having
been called there by the President for
a conference on the coming message
to Congress. Mr.. Spooner will bring
the Porto Rican subject to the atten-
ton of the President this week.
George w. Bird of this city, father
of Hobart S. Bird, publisher and edi-
tor of the San Juan News, persuaded
Mr.. Spooner to take the matter up
with the President. He laid before
the senator evidence tending to prove
that certain prominent members of
what is known as the Federal party
of the island were being maliciously
prosecuted and prosecuted for their
political activity.
1t is alleged that during the cam
paign that ended last Tuesday GER
tain element of the party that opposed
the Federalists, resorted to every
means of intimidation and in some
cases even physical violence to break
their political meetings and suppress
their POLITICAL activity.
1t is also alleged that threats were
freely made against the lives of the
Federalists should they go to the polls
and attempt to vote.

MONARCHS TOGETHER.
King Edward and His Royal
Nephew at Religious Service,


Nephew at Religious Service.
Sandringham, Eng, Nov 9.-The
weather here to-day was perfect and
mild and the bright sunshine brought
crowds of visitors to Sandringham on
the chance of seeing Emperor Will
liam.
The approaches to the church were
lined with spectators. Queen Alexan-
dra, the Prince of Wales and Mrs.
Chamberlain arrived at the church
together. Half an hour later King
Edward, Emperor William, Prime
Minister Balfour. Colonial Secretary
Chamberlain and other distinguished
persons arrived and stood chatting
outside. King Edward talked with Mr.
Chamberlain for a few minutes; then
the Emperor of Germany approached
and for a quarter of an hour the En-
peror and Mr.. Chamberlain stood apart
and conversed earnestly. The service
had begun and the anthem had been
reached before the royal party entered
the church, the King taking the EN-
peror's arm.
The Bishop of Ripon preached on
the possibility of the disappearance
of race distinctions and the attaining
of the grand brotherhood of man. He
referred to King Edwards recovery
from his illness; to the visit of his
kinsman monarch. and to the ties
which have long united Germany and
Great Britain. The bishop said. how
ever, these countries were divided by
the German ocean. race blended of
both peoples was continuing to grow
on the other side of the Atlantic,
where Germans and Englishmen were
becoming one nationality. The service
was closed by the singing of the ma
tional anthem. Afterwards the two
monarchs walked together through the
gardens.
During the day King Edward receiv
ed a host of birthday CONGRATULATIONS
and gifts. Emperor William gave him
a valuable vase.

TO SUPPRESS LADRONISM.
ing Vigorous Measures in Three
Provinces.

Provinces.
Manila, Nov. 9.-The government is
adopting vigorous measures to sup
press ladronism in the provinces
of Cavite, Rial and Bulacan. A zone
embracing the provinces, and sur
rounding Manila, is the scene of con-
slant petty and. sometimes. serious
disorder Several armed bands, some
of them numbering 200 or 500 men,
are operating in the described dis
tricts and have committed various
depredations. They find a safe refuge
in the mountains. The plan of the
government contemplates securing the
assistance of the military, which has
been inactive since the end of the in
surrection. The extent of the armys
participation in the work of suppress
sion depends upon developments. 1t
is probable that the military author
tiles will request the garrisons to
protect the more important towns,
while the constabulary conduct the
field operations. 1t is thought that
be declared, and the privilege of the
writ of habeas corpus suspended in
Cavite province, which has been the
home of the ladrones for ages.
Military control of Cavite province
is not contemplated.
1t is intended that the military and
civil authorities shall work in con-
junction. Advantage has been taken
in some parts of the islands of the
complete inactivity of the soldiers, and
it is thought that the use of the army
by the civil authorities will have a
beneficial effect.
The vigorous campaign against the
ladrones which has been conducted
by volunteers in Bulacan province
has resulted in driving many refugee
bandit bands into Rial, where the
campaign is now pending
Gen. Davis is operating with Gov.
Taft He has strengthened the gar
risons in Rial and is supporting and
assisting the native constabulary
which is now afield
The operations in Cavite province
will commence shortly

Binghampton. N. Y, Nov. 9.-Mrs.
Enoch Hink shot and killed her hus-
band about three miles above Port
Dickinson, this morning about
o'clock. Hlnk was SO years of age, his
wife is 40. They have been married
twenty-three years. For some time
Hink has been jealous of a nephew,
Frank Hink, who has boarded at the
Hink home. Saturday Mr. and Mrs
Hink and Frank Hink came to Bling
hampton. Mrs. Hink and Frank drove
home alone.
About o'clock this morning Hink,
who had arrived home some time pre-
viously in an intoxicated condition,
quarreled with his wife and made an
assault upon her. She ran out of doors
in her night dress, barefooted, and
pursued by her husband, ran down the
road. He was armed with a clasp
knife. Finally in the darkness Mrs.
Hink eluded him and going back to the
house, barricaded her bedroom. Hink
came back and when he tried to open
the door to renew the assault the wo-
man took up a shotgun and pointed it
at her husband. 1t was discharged
the charge entering Kinks breast just
above the heart. He died in a few
minutes.
1t is not thought that Mrs. Hink will
be arrested. The coroner says that he
looks at it as case of justifiable hon.
icide.

London, Nov 10.-The Daily Mail
and the Daily News this morning
throw doubt upon the reality of the

of Shanghai. The former paper hints
that Germany has a secret under

and with an endeavor on the part OF
Germany to secure a guild pro quo for

Dagupnn Railroad Wants Philippine
Government to Make Concessions.
Manila, Nov. 9.-The English syndi-
cate which operates the Manila-Dagu-
pan Railroad, has applied for a fran
chise to construct a railroad from
Guiguinto, province of Bulacan, to
Cabanatuan, province of Nueva Foija.
The syndicate contemplates later the
extension of the road from Cabana-
tuan to APART, on the north coast of
. LuZon. 1t wants the government 70
grant a right of way and to make GER
tain tariff taxes and concessions for a
term of years.
The commission is preparing to enact
railroad law and it will not grant the
franchise applied for by the English
syndicate until Americans have had a
chance to examine the line of the pro-
jected road and submit proposals The
railroad line to Apart will be part of
the future Luzon trunk line and the
granting of a franchise for it's con-
struction is therefore a matter of i'm
pOrtance.
