FOURTH OF JULY CELEBRATION.

The celebration held at Roaring
Brook Park last Saturday was a grand
success. The weather was all that
could be asked for and the people
commenced coming in from the sur
rounding towns early in the morning.
Later very large number arrived on
the trains from the North and south,
until fully five thousand people
we're on the grounds. The attrac-
tion of the morning was the ball
game. In a well played game st.
Johnsbury defeated Hardwick before
large crowd of enthusiastic people.
The game although not particularly
close abounded in sensational plays
and in some respects was one of the
best ever played on the ground.
There was IN unusually large number
of double plays, the one made by APP
polt and Thomas, being especially
good. For st. Johnsbury Richmond
pitched an elegant game, having al
most perfect control while Wright
put up splendid game behind the
bat and his throws to Sc cond made
base stealing seem like a lost art.
Carr and Phillips robbed the opposing
team of several seemingly sure hits
by good judgment and Bedor and
Thompson did the best work with the
stick. For Hardwick Suitor pitched
strong game and the score would
have been much closer but for the
fact that the errors made by Hard
wick came at critical times. Thomp-
son played very good game at third
as did Purcell at short, and Appolt
made one remarkable catch in right
field. The best hitting was done by
Sullivan. Brown umpired good
game as usual.

Hanna's Nesro Bill.

Senator Mark Hanna has in
troduced in the Senate a bill
which because Of its barefaced
purpose of catching the negro
vote and cff8atting the ne!ro
appo'n,men. S Of President Roose-
vsit, would be ludicrous were it
not capable OF being made the
means Of dofrauding thousands
of Ignorant and trusting people.
Senator Hanna's bill proposes to
tension every eX-slavo and the
relative Of such ex-s,ayos as
have elder members Of their
families dependent on them, The
pensions are to vary from 81 per
month for slaves under 90 to
5l5 per month for slaves 10 and
over. Moreover, bonuses are to
be paid to such as prove eligible
for pensions ranging from 500
for those aged 80 to $500 for
those seventy and over. As soon
as the bill was introduced, Mr..
Hanna was seen by your
correspondent and frankly admit
| ted that he had 10 intention OF
urging the measure and never
expected it to become law.
When asked why he had in
/ troduced it, he sal! he had done
so at the requeot Of a friend and
merely wished to be accommodate
ing. Asked if the friend was
! going to be his campaign man
ager in 1904 Mr.. Hanna refused
/ 10 answer. COmmi5slOne? Ware,
when seen the next day, said
that the Hanna bill would almost
bankrupt the government il it
wereito become a law. Evidence
as to who were and who were
not ex- slaves would be practically
impossible to procure and the law
would be made the excuse foE
voting thousands Of private pen
sion5 to negroes by Legislators
anxious to secure the nagro vote.

Everybody Knows the Two.

Governor Eagle has been be-
fore the Senate Committee On
Public Buildings, seeking to vim
dicate his character becsuse of
his removal from the state capitol
commission by Jeff Davis. Every
man according to his tempera-
ment, but we believe Governor
Eagle is making a mistake. There
is no. a man in the staue convers-
ant with the facts, but that kncWs
mis- character is in no wise in
yolved. Everybody knows jeff
Davis; what puff-up fool he is;
what an egotist he is and always
has been; what a political boss
he would like to be; what an in
sufferable boor he has always
proven himself to be; and the
idea that a man Of irreproachable
character, as Governor Eagle is,
should feel aggrieved, or arrive
at the conclusion that his good
name is in jeopardy seems
grotesquoly at odds with the facts
of the case. Helena World.

TIE LEGISLATURE.
A Few Notes OF Interest ASoN the
Arkansas Congress.

%ll lAi32SS wa ~@7'
Many matters are warming up
considerably before the Legislature
The McPherrin bill, which seeks
lto place the entire management
of the penitontiary in the hands
of the governor, is being cussed
and discussed both in the senate
and TN the streets. The gov
ernor's forces claim to have 20
votes in the senate, for the
measure. The combined vote
for the proposition actually num-
bers eight, with a half dozen
senators ga straddle the fence, "
and chances are that they may
fall off on either side. The bill
will hardly be abe to muster
more than a dozen votes.
The governor has signed the
the joint resolution providing
q committee to investigate the
recent purchase Of the Cummings
pla ntation for a convict farm in
a body and make a critical in
vestigation Of the property, as
well as to 60 into the details Of
purchase. The committee is
composed of eight as good men
as there are in the state, and if
there is anything wrong in con-
nection with the farm or its pur-
chase the public will know it,
Senator Norwood's bill ap-
propriating S24O, 900 for an annex
to the insane asylum passed the
senate Thursday by unanimous
vote, 1t will p obably be passed
by the house next Friday.
Several evenings during the
CAST week have been devoted to
argument before the ways and
means committee on the antitrust
bill, The insuran ce interes s
were looked after by half dozen
able representatives, while the
ants were represented 10y the
governor, Senator King, Judge
Bourland, and others. We hardly
think the bill IN its present shape
/ will become a law,
BY the way, this is the most
temperate legislature we have
elected in years. Neither Of the
presiding officers drink drop Of
shmulants Of any kind, and a
large majority OF the members OF
both houses are total abstain
ers. In this it differs from the
last general assembly, in that
they were nearly all royal booze
killers.
Local bills are the curse Of
! this as Of the last session. Over
