OIL INSPECTION IN IOWA.
Experts Give Figures and Say System
Is Too Expensive.

Des Moines, March 4.-The expert
accountants appointed to examine the
accounts of state officers have filed
their report with the executive COM
mittee The feature of the report is
the criticism of present system of oil
inspection, both as to cost to the own
ers of oils and to the state The re-
port shows that for the year ending
January 1, 1902, the fourteen oil in
spectors of the state collected from
the owners of oils S42,342 OF this
amount the inspectors retained in fees
$15,614, and for travelling and other
expenses S13,613. turning over to the
state treasury $13,l14. The experts
find that the oil inspectors paid out
for helpers" the sum of $7,4S2.
The system followed by the inspec-
tors is said by the experts to be de-
serving of the severest criticism both
as to the amount paid out for assist
ants and in the matter of supplies.
The recommendation is made that the
present law, which is declared to be
lax and inefficient, be so amended
that oil inspectors will be compelled
to secure their supplies the same as
do other state officers. and that detail
ed statements as to the number of as
sistants and the actual time put in by
| them be required.
| The report doubtless will result in
| the enactment of legislation requiring
the strictest accounting for all mon.
eys collected as fees for the inspec.
ton of oils and providing a method
for the securing of supplies.

der of the New York Staats-Zeitung,
in honor of Prince Henry of Prussia.
The banquet was given in the great
ball room of the Waldorf-Astoria hotel
and was one of the most elaborate and
notable social functions ever given in
this country. There were 1000 guests
present, the majority of whom were
newspaper publishers from all parts
of the United States All the arrange
ments for the banquet were made on a
most. elaborate scale and the decora-
lions with electric lights, flowers,
and plants, flags and festoons, We're
beautiful beyond description. The
prince was present during the entire
affair from $3.50 p. M until midnight,
and listened closely to all the after
dinner speeches and applaGded many
of the sentiments expressed. His own
address was an interesting one and
was given in clear and distinct Eng
fish, but was read from manuscript In
his address Prince Henry surprised
his hearers somewhat by the evidence
shown of his close acquaintance with
the American people, institutions, gov
eminent and business methods 1t
was in this address that Prince Henry
llduS tuS lOlloWlh6 Hol1oiO
as to the nature of his mission to this
country at this time.
His majesty the Emperor has mi
nutely studied the recent and rapid de-
velopment of the United States, and
His Majesty is we'll aware of the fact
that yours is fast moving nation.
His sending me to this country may,
therefore, be looked upon as an act of
friendship and courtesy, with the one
desire of promoting friendlier rela-
lions between Germany and the Unit
ed States. Should you be willing to
grasp a proffered hand you will find
such one on the other side of the At
lantic Ocean,"
Other addresses were made by Hon.
Whitelaw Reed, Hon. Herman Ridder,
ex-Postmaster General Smith and
Publisher Chas. w. Knapp, Of st.
Louis. The souvenirs presented to
each guest at this banquet were an
excellent portrait of the prince print
ed on satin and miniature statue of
the prince done in plaster of paris.

DoLLIvER's MAIDEN EFFORT.
His First Speech in the Senate Was
on the Philippine Question.

AS a United States senator, elected
by the votes of the legislature of Iowa
Jonathan P. Dolliver has delivered his
maiden address in the senate. His re-
marks were in relation to the Philip
pine proposition and Senator Dolliver
spoke under the fifteen minute rule.
In the house after general debate has
been concluded additional time is Civ
en- to enable each member who desires,
to speak for five minutes. In the sen
ate this time is extended to fifteen min
utes.
During the progress of the speech of
Senator Dolliver the galleries broke in
to applause and the president was
compelled to warn the enthusiastic
persons that if the offense was repeat
ed the galleries would be cleared. AT
the conclusion of the address Senator
Dolliver was warmly congratulated by
practically the entire republican mem
bership of the senate, passing by his
desk in single file and shaking hands
with the junior senator from Iowa.
The remark is frequently heard that
Senator Delivers remarks constitute
the most effective deliverence made
by any republican upon the Philippine
question. His speech as officially re-
ported, was as follows:
Mr.. President, | have had good
deal of hesitation, amounting, | may
say, almost to timidity, in taking any
part at all in this controversy, and that
feeling of timidity has increased rath-
e. than diminished as the debate has
drawn toward a conclusion on account
of the bewildering variety of talents
which have been brought into action.
There are some questions, and
have all along felt that this is one OF
them, the proper solution of which re
quires the counsel and the good Will OF
everybody. There are situations in
which country like this ought to pre-
sent united front, and in which con
tentions of merely partisan charac'
ter are not only damaging to the pub
lie interests, but injurious to the ma
tional prestige.
| The questions presented in this bill
if have got the meaning of it correct
| ly, are comparatively simple. 1t is moi
question of constitutional law. 1t is
a question of practical public policy in
our commercial relations with the Phil
Iippine Islands. The bill proposes tc

Forty guests were in the hotel and
had but little time to escape as the
flames spread rapidly, cutting off ave-
nues of escape. The screams of the
girls aroused the guests, many OF

cony to the pavement in their night
clothes. The three injured girls jump
ed from the third story.

fallen President of the United States
that in the midst of the darkness
which has surrounded the American
people as they have tried to deal with
these difficulties and complex ques-
tons, he more than once publicly
avowed his dependence on the arm
which is almighty and recognized with
reverence our divine commission to
stand in the arena of the worlds great
affairs, as the obedient servant of man
kind. | am not ashamed of that phil
osophy.
If l read the history of the United
States correctly, this platform is a dis
paragement of every stage in our ma
tional growth. Even these pleas in
behalf of liberty, these citations more
or less accurate from the Declaration
of Independence, are not new. They
have beset the footsteps of the great
statesmen who have guided the en-
largement of our frontiers in other
generations.
For my part l have no fear for hui
man freedom, and l will say, also that
l have very little patience with a man
on any side Of this chamber who
thinks that the cause of civil liberty
will stand better chance under the
proclamations of the military chieftans
of the Malay tribes in the Islands of
the Pacific than it does under the flag
of the American republic
Senator Delivers address was de-
livered entirely without manuscript or
notes. Naturally he was conversant
with the facts and principles brought
forward but the words came upon the
| inspiration of the moment.
Mrs. DolIiver Declines Office.
Mrs. J. P. Dolliver, in the absence of
a delegate from Iowa to the national
mothers congress, looked after the in
! terests of Iowa at the convention, and
so impressed the delegates that the
convention elected her auditor of the
congress, a position of great RESPONSE
bility. On account of family cares
Mrs. Dolliver was compelled to decline
the office.
