Scott Said That Roosevelt Initiated
Cleveland In Dining Negro.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-During
consideration of the District Of Column
iia appropriation bill in the house Mr..
scott (Kan.) made the declaration that
. negro had dined at the White House
with President Cleveland during the
alters first administration. The state
ment was prompted by a reference by
Mr.. Gilbert (Ky.) to the dining Of
Booker Washington ut the White
House. When the name was demand
ed Mr.. Scott said it was C. ii. J. Tay-
lor, who was appointed by President
Cleveland as recorder of deeds for the
District of Columbia.
Mr.. Gilbert observed that lie and
others never had heard OF the incident,
but the Democrats were not 'partlcu-
larly claiming" Mr.. Cleveland, and Mr..
Cochran (Mo.) said it was but cumula-
tive evidence that ''there is no better
Republican in the country than Grover
Cleveland"
Mr.. Scott in contrasting Booker
Washington with Taylor said the for
| mer was a man of recognized ability,
while he declared there was nothing
| to commend the latter.
Continuing, Mr.. Gilbert said that in
the Spanish war there was General
Miles, commanding general Of the ar
my; Admiral Dewey at Manila, Admi-
raj Schley, Generals Lee, Wheeler and
Bell, all of whom were Democrats. Or
the other side, he said, there vas a
member of the Republican cabinet ac-
cused of sending embalmed beef to the
soldiers. .'Then," he said, there was
Il Republican horse doctor sent to
Cuba who was accused of befriending
the gamblers and lawbreakers." He
referred to the conviction of Rathbone
and Nicely and alluded to General Fun
ston, who, he charged, had violated the
rules of civilized warfare in wearing
the uniform of an enemy in the emp
ture of Aguinaldo. He-next referred
to General Davis, "who," he said, sold
rice and other provisions to starving
natives at enormous profits"
The Republicans had promised to de-
stroy trusts. declared Mr.. Gilbert. but
they now had a bill in the senate
making lawful all reasonable trusts
and repeating the Imprisonment clause
Of the Sherman law as to criminals"

GORGES ON
The RARITAN.
Pack Frozen Solid for Miles
Water Overlooking Miles
Of Meadows.

The south branch of the ..Raritan
River is causing much uneasiness in
the neighborhood of Pennington.
Little or snosiee has gone out since the
winter set in, and there are ten gorges
within as many miles, some Of which
are from one to two miles in length.
The!iee that has damned in the chan
mel varies from fifteen to twenty foul
inches in thickess. Some of the
georges began forming several weeks
ago, and eacbntime there was a break
in the ice it damned tighter and piled
higher at the different points, only tc
be frozen stiIlEmore compact by the
extreme cold. q
There are many small islands north
( the sparsely settled hamlet OF
Woodfern, and upon these are piled
several feet of ice, extending to within
a stones throw of Riverside, where
il stops, only to start again on the
mill dam OF George o. Higgins g. Son,
the Riverside millers. This gorge ex-
tends almost to the village of Three
Bridges, a mile and a quarter distant.
None of the ice in the dam has gone
out and it helps to hold back the tire
mendous weight of thelgorge.
At Three Bridges another gorge has
formed. The ice has jammed solidly
in the channel of the river and in the
meadow. The gorge is nearly q mile
in length, extending to within q short
distance to the large gorge at Rocka-
fellows mills. The gorge has turned
the course of the river, and much Of
the water is running across the road
loading to the town from the south.
The gorge at s.Rockafellow's mills
has proved the most disastrous 80 far.
The large new bridge which was erect
ed recently at a cost OF about $1,000,
has been wrecked and will probably
be carried down the river when the
ice breaks. The Board Of Freeholders
saved the bridge from destruction
some weeks ago by %dynamiting a large
gorge of ice that had formed there
This gorge passed down the river only
a short distance and again yspiled up,
-an5&w4hereis-not Lsuffioient room
to permit this second jam to escape.
The ice at this point has jammed foi
a distance of from ten to twelve feet
high, and the main channel of the
river has become SO blocked that the
water is RAINING through the meadow
Of former Senator r. Foster.
At Rowlands Mills another gorge
extends almost to Stanton Station.
Freeholder John III. DeMott, OF
Remington, shys'it is not possible to
clear the river with dynamite.

lures and estimations and information:
Judge Sanborn, the presiding judge of the federal

MUDGE'S UNANSWERABLE EXPLANATION.

The Santa machnists in obedience the order of

refused Superintendent Nudge, learning that the
strike to become effective at the time stated inter-
vened by closing the shops the evening before When
approached for his anticipating the wakout
he offered the following reasons which will be found to
be humane, conservative, fair and unanswerable:
Learning that strike had been ordered by the Inter
national ocation of Machinsts, effective
Santa Fe system, 9 O'Clock a M. we decided
open the shops this morning Our for this
First-Representatives of the l. A. NJ reported to
have said in speeches the three would
be given the from time of going work in the
Ing until the strike, which time they could in doing
damage to machinery engines We have ample pro-
lection for machinery and do believe in any
event that who have been long in service would
resort to such lawlessness but it might be that
who have been Topeka this particular pur
would do and also that would be led
into thoughtless through the excitement of
moment If there are any such to them
from temptation and possibly in the penitentary
Second-During the excitement rush that usually
occurs when strike takes place during shop hours many
men, particularly the young ones rushed into il
through excitement and without having time sober
consideration. We want 10 give all
temptation and serious thought and believe that
quiet day at home with their families will be more likely
t. help them to judcious decision.
We want the men to have every opportunity for cool
consideration in order that blame attach to any
one but themselves if they make unwise decision
this matter.

That political party founded on the
Golden Rule would do to others what
others would do TO them, but would do il
first as David Harum remarked. Church
and state don't mix well in country
which knows no creed. A ticket which a
man, or Turk cannot vote, is not an
American ticket.
The Pikers' Diogenes was laughing yes

"Why do you roar" he was asked
why are the Utah Gentiles so tickled

lieve as they do behave? They mistake
their hatred of opposition for love Of
virtue. Hence. these audible smiles"
That German Socialist who would make
the Socialist creed less ideal and more
practical would ema sculate il. Take out
the ideal and put in the practical and no
tinge of Socialism will be left.
