The Blassburg, Pa, Advertiser has the
following remarksto make while Congress
and the Supreme Court are trying to de.
eide just where they stand OH tariff and
taxation in our new possessions, which
have given them all sorts of trouble and
worry to unravel: One hundred and
twenty-five years after the Declaration OF
Independence was made by the thirteen
colonies against Great Britain and deny.
ing the right of Great Britain to tax the
colonies without giving them represen.
tation, we find the same colonies now a
great power, enforcing the same doctrine
upon the Porto Ricans and Philippines as
the British government attempted to
fasten upon the colonies one hundred and
twenty-five years ago. The taxing with.
out representation did not succeed then,
neither will it now. A greater outrage
has never been attempted by the Amer.
lean people, and the party which is re.
sponsible for such an outrage will vel
have to answer for it to the liberty loving
people of this country"

OIL FLOWS IN THE STREET.
A Surprising Find in Bedford City-Strong
Smell Of Kerosene.
Especial Dispatch to The Timcs.)

BEDFORD CITY, VA, Feb. Pa ru-
NOR was spread abroad Saturday after
roor that Bedford City had probably dis
covered oil, and at once the deepest III
terest was evinced on every hand, anu
yesterday great numbers of persons vis-
tied the spot and inhaled the strong door
Of kerosene that pervaded the air.
Saturday Mr.. ]. w. Gish WAS surprised
to note a small stream of a darlf-colored
liquid flowing down the street past his
l,cusc and on toward Randolph-Macon
Academy. Investigation showed that the
stream had its source from an aperture
in the earth beneath the brick sidewalk
il. front of the gate to the residence OF
Mr. J. n. Easily. Mr.. Easily states that
he had known of the existence Of this
oil there for some time, but had attached
10 special Importance to 1t. He had
caught some of it in Il saucer and thrown
iC upon a wood fire and it blazed up just
as kerosene does when set on fire. Any
vessel in which any of the fluid is al
lowed to stand becomes permeated with
Il strong scent of oil.
Yesterday crowds Of curious persons
visited the scene and all bear testimony
tc the existence of the odor of oil in the
locality and the appearance of oil upon
the surface of the water.
Whether or not this is q valuable dis
covery that may open up a new era of
progress for the town and those who own
the property upon which the oil may
exist, is a problem yet to be determined.
There has as yet been no scientific opin-
ion on the subject, and it may mean a
good deal or nothing at all Of Importance.
