AS for the names you mention for the
State Legislature, l understand that these
were the best out of fourteen your noml'
mating committee had under consldera-

and have given you ten too many. Othef-
wise. for idle curiosity, | think the peo'
pie would like to know who the othef
ten could have been.
I am told that some Of these, If not
all, who mad been in the State lons
enough to vote, voted for Daniel H. Rus

that be true, assure you, sir, that they
are not in sympathy with the good white
people of North Carolina and I, for one
do not want such men to represent the
good county of Meclllenburg in the state

thing or anywhere.

the hearts of all good white men IL
North Carolina-by which the white Deo-

the moment comes to resume negotia-

have left the archipelago in such n
way that the friar question will have
resolved itself without the necessity of
further discussion.
The foregoing plan interpreted as a
tate but significant recognition by The
Vatican that Secretary of War Roots
first propositions made to the Vatican
through Governor Taft were the most
liberal that could be devised for the
settlement of the question.
The great influence of the religious
orders in Rome must be reckoned

their interest to resist these measures.

seem not to be so. as the General of

Declares Mlssouri-Kansas Telephone VAL

Mayor Jas. Reed of Kansas City ap-
peared before the State Board Of
Equalization relative to the assess
ment for taxes Of the Missouri Kan

first time that the State Board has as
sessed telephone lines for State taxes

Kansas Telephone Company, in its re-
turn to the State Board. estimated tho
value Of its property in Kansas c!ty
to Re worth about $4,000.
Mayor Reed. before the boerl con-
tended that this was an outrageously
low figure at which to place the val
uation for assessment and that the
company owned property IN Kansas
City to the amount of at least $780,
900. He asked the State Boar1 to per-
NIT him to have officials of the COM
pany subpoenaed before the board with
their accounting books to assist in de-
termining the real value of the prop
erty in question. Kansas City is in
terested in large assessment, as the

with Great slaughter.

Panama, Colombia, Aug. 1.-The
Peace Commissioners who left here
July % on the British steamer Cana
to visit the Revolutionary General
Herrera. near Aqua Dulce, returned to
Panama at noon today.
They were unable to fulfill their mis-
sion because a very severe engagement
between Herrera's forces and the Gov

since Tuesday, July 90. when the rev.
dictionary forces began to attack Aqua
Dulce.
AT ) O'Clock Thursday morning the
best battalions of the revolutionary
forces attacked the Government in
trenchments with fierce courage.
The slaughter of the rebels. 1t Is
said, was excessive and barbarous.
That same afternoon a white flag was
raised in their camp, and they asked
for armistice during which they could
bury their dead. This was granted.
At the expiration of the time of arm
istice the engagement recommended
with the same fierceness. Nine Gov

ILLINOIS RIVER ANALYSIS.

State Board of Health Discovers It Sup
plies the rurest OF Water.
Springfield, ILL.,, Aug. 1.-THE Illinois
State Board Of Health is about to pub
lish a third report on the sanitary in
vestigation made by the board of the
Illinois River and It's tributaries, and
also the Mississippi River. The first
report, issued in 1899, gave the results
of analyses made prior to the opening
Of the Chicago Drainage Canal, ant
the second. published in 1901, brought
the results of analyses made down to
April of that year.
In the Investigations in 1S99-19o1 the
Illinois River at Its mouth was found
to be in better condition than most OF
it's tributaries. The amount of album
inoid ammonia in the river at its
points of entrance into tho Mississippi
was found to be far less than the Mis-
sissippi at the same place, and the
oxygen consumption markedly less.
Practically no contamination remained
in the Illinois River to tell of the
enormous pollution 800 miles above.
In the opinion OF the DOaru, THIS re-
markable destruction of organic mat
ter was due to organic oxidation.
The results set forth in the reports
of 1899 and 1901 are confirmed and
strengthened by the investigations con-
Quoted in 1901, and 1902 These in
vestigations, however, were confined to
the Illinois River at its mouth. the
Mississippi River a short distance
above the mouth of the Illinois, and
the Missouri River at its junction with
the Mississippi. The analyses revealed
the significant fact that the Illinois
River at it's mouth contained less
pathogenic and sewage bacteria than
the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers at
the points named.
