gress at Boston.
ROOSEVELT is THANKED
For His Pledge in Behalf of An
other Hague COnclave.
A LETTER FROM CARNEGIE.
In II He Suggests Plan for Obtaining
Universal Peace-Gen. Nelson A.
Miles Speaks in Favor Of Reducing
Armies and Navies.

Boston, Oct. THE arrest and sub
sequent reduction of military and
naval armament throughout the world
was called for Thursday at the session
of the international peace congress
when resolutions were adopted ex-
pressing the opinion that the first task
which the worlds convention sug-
gested by President Roosevelt should
take up, was the gradual disarmament
of the powers.
The thanks of the congress were ex-
tended to President Roosevelt for his
pledge to take the first steps towards
a conyocation of a new international
peace conclave.
The most pronounced oratorical
moment which the congress yet has
seen came when a Boston delegate,
Charles F. Dole, proposed to amend
the disarmament resolution by dec
laration that no necessity existed for
the United States to view with sus-
picion the powers of Europe and that,
therefore, 1t was quite unnecessary
for America. with the purpose of en-
forcing the Monroe doctrine, to build
up such an immense navy. Several
delegates warmly opposed the amend
ment, first, on the ground that such q
resolve should properly come before q
congress composed of American dele.
gates merely, and second, on the
ground that the congress had no right
TO criticize the American government
for upholding by suitable naval force
a doctrine. by the enforcement oi
which war had been excluded from the
western hemisphere, and by means ol
an insistence upon the open door In
the east preventing war also in thai
section OF the globe. The Dole amend
ment was defeated by a large ma
jority.
A letter was read from Andrew Car
negie in which Mr.. Carnegie suggested
q unique plan for reaching universe
peace. Its nucleus was a union of the
great powers, which would be granted
authority to enforce as an organiza
ton peaceful settlements Of all Ques
tions in dispute.

Inspector Is Now Hard at
Work in Logan
County.

Kentucky has Jared well during the
past three years in the lsbcrs of the
Postoffice Department. Three years
ago there were less tnan q dozen rural
free delivery routes In that state
The Postoffice Department besitated
somewhat in making investigations.
owing TO the fact that none OF the spe-
cisl sgents were desirous of accepting
this territory in their assignments by
reason of the internal political condi-
tIons and the further fact that rural
free delivery was not popular with a
majority of the men representing that
State in Congress.
However. during the knights Tenn
plar conclsve in Louisville, three years
ago. Col. q. G. Rising. prominent
member Of that order, asked to be as
signed to Kentucky, and his request
was granted by the department. Col
Rising took personal interest in the
work and large part of the routes
now in operation were established
through his recommendations. s o
careful and thorough was he 10 this
work that Ii can be said that Ken
tucky possesses today tine best equip
ped routes of any State in the Union.
Recognizing Col Rising's ability. the
department recently assigned him to
the higher class work. that of investi-
cations for full county service and he
is now working in this county at such
task
Duripg his service in Kentucky
Colonel Rising established 1873 new
routes in the state. an average of more
than a a year. ana 200 more were
recommended which will doubtless be
established within few months. In
all there are 4l3 routes in Kentucky.
