WASHINGTON. April = Secretary Hitch
cock to-day sent a telegram TO Gov. Brady

gnphed the department in regard 10
another matter which was addressed TO

LED NJ PAPAL DELEGATE.
Opposition Makes That Charge Against
Canadian Premier LAurIer.

OTTAWA. April "A profound impression
has been produced by the disco very that
Mgr. Sbaretti, the delegate OF the Pope in
Canada, has decided the policy Of the Gov
eminent on the school question In the North
west II il asserted by opponents OF the
Government that Sir Wilfrid IAurier has
negotiated With the representative Of his
Holiness with respect to this matter. The
details Of the school policy were submitted
TO and were accepted by Mgr. Sbaretti
before Parliament was allowed to know
what they were. The subsequent chan ges,
il ia asserted, we're effected after consulta-
tons between Sir Wifrid LAurier and the
representative Of the Pope.
The story is that the delegate was pre-
Pared to permit the Federal Parliament 10
extend the boundaries Of the province
northwest to Hudsons Bay in conformity
with the desires Of the people there, pro-
vided the Manitoba school law was amended
to suit his views, but failing that Manitoba
had to remain as before, county among
provinces. The Manitoba Ministers would
not change the law. As a consequence, the
Papal elegate declined to agree 10 an
extension OF the boundaries. and Sir Wilfrid
Laurier was careful not to propose action
in that direction.
The Ministerialists strenuously deny
that the representative Of the Vatican
has had a hand in shaping their policy.
still the Opposition assert with equal
force that they are in position to establish
the charge made.
The incident promises to intensity the
bitter feelings which have been aroused
throughout Canada over the Ministerial

KID 1COpS FAKE MARRIAGE.
Decree Against Him Entered in Court at
Providence.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., April "A decree
was entered to-day in the Appellate Division
Of the Supreme Court against Norman
Selby, otherwise Kid Mccoy, the' prize
fighter.
On Feb. /, Indiola Selby, an actress
whose maiden name was Arnold and who
was playing with the Wizard Of Or com
pany, filed bill in equity with the court
asking that her marriage with Mccoy,
which she asserted took place in this city
on Dec. Il, 1908. be annulled on the ground
that IL was a fraudulent one. In her decla-
ration she asserted that the ceremony was
performed by one Of McCoy's friends who
was not a clergyman, as she learned later.
After the fling Of this bill Mccoy was
located at Hot Springs, Ark, where a sub
pPna issued by the court was served upon
him. He has made no answer and has not
been heard from regarding the matter.
Consequently a decree is entered and il is
expected that this will be followed by an
application from Mrs. Selby for a final
decree annulling the marriage.

A FEEBLE. RESPONSE.

The Republican organ answers THE
CITIZENS criticisms of the conduct of
the affairs of the county by bringing
up from the archives of the past
some plausible excuses for tie high
tax rate, the increase in certain ap.
preparations and the general tendency
towards extravaganza Our comments
were on the exact conditions existing
siuce thu county has been under the
control Of the Republican party. They
are responsible and not some past Dem
ocrIiic official, or some old Board of
County Commissioners. If things
were wrong in the past, twas the duty
Of the present board TO correct them
aud carry out their pledges to the tax
payers. They have not done this and
we feel encouraged in our hope for
the election of the entire Board of
County Commissioners this time The
people want a change and now is the
time to get it.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1905-11-03
THE APPEAL TO THE UNDE-
CIDED VOTER.

The success or defeat Of the Constitu-
tional Amendment is now in the hands
Of the people of Maryland We assert
most positively that all consideration
of the virtues ofthis measure should be
above the plains of personal ansmosity
toward any individual So much has
been said along this line in the present
campaign that many minds have be-
come so impregnated with its virus that
the amendment itself has been side
tracked. Much of the feeling against
it has been caused by the bitter fight
being wagered in Baltimore by GER
tain clique, that has for years occupied
the same position in State campaigns.
They are really fighting certain Demo-
cratic leaders and have been doing so
for years. 1t is the spirit of the Reform
League, and the opportunity offered by
the amendment to mislead and confuse
the voters has been taken full advan-
tsge Of Full details of their argunen'
have been presented in the CITIZEN
aud the futilIty of their reasoning
shown up. Also in certain sections a
reflection Of this sentiment has re-
manned and certain persons, whose de-
mocracy is uuimpeached, and whose
desire for the acknowledgements of the
negro is as certain as their own exist
ence, are still out of the fold on roints
that could easily be subordinated t. the
Importance of the issue. We appeal to
them to look at it in the most reason
able way and to consider the fruits of
their action, should it help to defeat the
amendment.
The Democratic party, backed 10y
SOBER end sound judgment all over the
State, has'brought the issue to the focus
in this campaign and are fighting with
their entire energy for its adoption.
We ask every Democrat to vote for it
and also tn use his influence in every
way that will do good. Those who are
yet undecided are asked to go over the
matter again a let their better ma
ture-that which has rebelled at the en-
actment If the Fifteenth Amendment
giving voting privileges to the negro
have the ascend-ncy. 1t is contest
for white supremacy" and the last OPP
portunity you may have for years, to
bring about the results so desirable to
EVERY one.
