at Marcus Island

Acting Secretary Adee has been informed
by the Japanese legation here that Capt.
RosehilI, who undertook to lay claim to
Marcus Island and take possession, arrived

spirit which seeks to arouse prejudice
of the people against the railroads." and
advocates the "enactment of laws so reg

protect the interests of the people, but
is opposed to any drastic measures.
The platform then endorses the wis
dom Of the Dingley Tariff law and
urges a continuance of that policy. Re
publican legislation to build an inter
oceanic canal is approved. The bravery
and heroism of our soldiers and sailors
in the Philippines" are ~applauded, and
the attacks of the Democratic party on
them are condemned. The platform then
expresses confidence in the administra-

"We exercise our faith in his thorough

believe that his leadership establishes
confidence both in the success of the Re
publican principles and the continued

National Committeeman j. w. Dimmich

There was some opposition to the en-

recent action of the President in re-
moving William Vaughan, retiring Re

Of District Attorney for North Alabama
for alleged neglect of duty. A substitute
