FAREWELL TO REID.
rs Guest of Honor at Dinner in New Yorlr

York.
 New York, May 23.-whitelaw Reid, who will go to London as Ambassador
 to the court of St. James, was the guest of honor tonight at a farewell
 dinner given by the Republican Club.
 In attendance were more than 300 Re- publicans prominent in city, State and
 national politics. President Louis
 Stern presided and among those at the chairman's table were Sir Percy Sand erson. the British Consul General; Sem ator Depew, General Frederick D. Grant, former Postmaster General Charles Emory Smith and Charles P. Talcott of Philadelphia. MT. Reid said
 at the outset that he did not enter upon
 the discharge of his duties as a par
 tisan. NO politics" he continued,
 will or can be known in the embassy.
 Democrats or Republicans. Independ-
 ents. Prohibitionists, Populists. Woman Suffragists or miscellaneous reformers.
 foreign or native, candidates defeated
 or candidates elected, are all American citizens, all support the President and
 the Government the embassy repre-
 sents, and all are alike in their right to regard the American Ambassador as their public servant"
 In closing, Mir. Reid referred with ap- probation to the illuminating phrase of our great Secretary of State when
 in humorous vein he told us that our foreign policy consists chiefly in the Golden Rule and the Monroe doctrine"
 Tt requires" said MT. Reid. but another word in fact to make 1t com pletely comprehensive. To the Golden Rule and the Monroe Doctrine we need only add the Dix Doctrine to sum up the whole body of state department in- structions for our dealings with for eign relations. None here, no New Yorker. no American, ever forgets the Dix doctrine. If a man hauls down the American flag, shoot him on the spot Neither that nor the Monroe doctrine is international law but both are sure to remain indefinitely fun damental parts of American interna- tionar policy and when you illumine both by the Golden Rule you have set forth what I firmly believe Is the sincere and devout wish of the United States with regard to all It's foreign relations and the work of all its representatives in diplomatic ser vice."
 Sir Percy Sanderson, speaking for Sir Mortimer Durand, the British Am bassador, said that 1t was one of those rare occasions when British official found himself with impunity within a political club. He compli- mented the American people upon their selection of their Ambassador. MT .
 Reid. he said, would be at home in
 England and would do much to con- tinue the friendly relations now hap pily existing between the two nations Sir Percy assured MT. Ried that the British nation would give him warm welcome.

VETOED BY GOVERNOR.
Higgins Doesn't want Bastard Child
 LeRitImatIsed.

Albany. N. Y, May 23-A bill intro duced to legitimatize the child born out of wedlock which caused consid- erabIe comment but little opposition in its passage through the legislature was vetoed today by Governor Hig- gins The measure is entitled. An Act for the Relief of Adelia Queenie Barker and recites that she is the ilIegitimate offspring of Charles Bell Barker and Adelia Gertrude Stringer. Governor Higgins characterized the bill "as an insult to every faithful wife and to womanhood itself"
 ''The father at the time of the birth of the child" says the governor, had and now has a lawful wife living. He and his paramour, with brazen impu- dence and utter disregard of the rights of the lawful wife and the rules or morality, unite in a petition to the Iagislatnre to legitimatize the issue of their lawless love. If this bill should be approved a legal status would be given to semi-polygamy and concubinage would become an honor able estate"

BOARD OF EDUCATION REPORT.

The annual report of the Board of
Education, containing 178 pages, has
just been issued from the press. 1t is
a very complete document, and is H.
Illustrated with pictures of the several
school buildings.
Truth notes therein one matter to
which attention is directed 1t is
shown by the financial statement that
after paying all expenses there was a
balance left of 17049.49 at the end of
the year; the school year. If we recall
the circumstance correctly, many men,
bers of the board insisted at the time
the last levy of taxes was made that
there would not be sufficient revenue
with which to meet expenses and
wanted levy of $40 of mill more.
Treasurer Carbis and Auditor Fisher
were opposed to having this additional
amount added to the taxes, contending
that the levy as first suggested would
be enough, as it has been proven
Under proper administration the funds
raised will be ample. No one desires
the board to be stinted in it's funds
The Board of Education during the
past two or three years has done won
ders in extracting the board from the
financial slough into which it
had fallen. We are informed that
there will be a balance this year of
some $4,000. We do not be.
lieve the expenses will amount
to as much as the estimate last year
called for. The estimated expenses for
last year were $467,S00, and we are
told they will be must less.
The report shows the schools to have
been in excellent condition. Great i'm
provements are constantly being made.
Truth sees no reason, however, why it
should require such long time be-
tween the making of these reports that
go to make up an annual report and
the day of publication. This last re-
port ends June 80, 1904, and ought to
have been made public by publication
in at least 80 days after completion.

20 feet below the bottom of the shaft.
This proposition was opposed by Supt.
Floeter, as well as by a Mr. G.. Reid,
a mining man, whom two of the di-
rectors took to the mine on March
l and 2 of this year. When Judge
Bartch resigned Mr.. G. w. Morgan
was elected president and on March
% telegraphed to Mr.. Floeter as fol-
lows: Board directs you to immed-
lately discharge men, close down
mine and turn over all property to
Jos. M. Organ, agent Such is a sam
pie of their methods and management
co." IIJIl
The signers of the circular then
recommend the election of a board of
directors, a majority of whom shall
be residents of Michigan, where most
of the stock is held and suggest
changes in method and management
In concluding they state that 1.-THE
committee would state that every
statement or inference made in this
circular Is true to the best OF our
knowledge and belief and are based
wholly on official documents, letters
and affidavits made by responsible
parties"
In order to get the stock voted
right it is suggested that the following
course be adopted:
You are particularly requested to
see If the certificate of stock you own
is issued in your name. If it is not,
make memorandum of the stock, TAX
ing the number of the certificate and
the name of the person to whom is
sued. See that the certificate has
been signed by the person to whom
issued, fill in your name after the
words on the back assign and trans
fer to- and again after the words con
stitute and appoint Send the certifi-
cate, accompanied by your assessment
No. 2, to the secretary of the COM
pany at Salt Lake City, Utah, by reg
istered letter Immediately, to be trans
ferred to you, for stock cannot be
voted upon except by person of rec
ord. Be sure to send your proxy to
John Slockett, Houghton, Mich, or to
]. M. Burdick, of New Britain, Con-
But as Truth understands the mat
ter, the action proposed in the circu-
lar quoted will not end the affair by
any means. Truth is told by those
who profess to know that there will
be legal action taken. 1t is stated that
when the company was in progress of
formation that eastern men were in
duced to put money into the enter
prise by statements which were mis-
leading. For instance it is alleged that
part of the dump of the Sheba mine
was on De Soto ground, and that
Judge Bartch related to several east
erners that it was necessary for the
Sheba people to own the De Soto.
Several stockholders in this city will
bear out the assertion that they put
their money into the pool with the I'M
derstanding that it should be used for
this purpose. But Truth is informed
that Judge Bartch bought the De Soto
himself. 1t is also charged that Child
acted at least indiscreetly in the mat
ter of the sale of treasury stock. 1t
is related that large blocks of the
stock were sold at prices far and
away above what the treasury re-
ceived for it.
In the matter previously alluded to:
The Morrison mining case, in which
Alviras Snow made some serious ale
cations, the public scandal which re-
suited was of such a nature that we
believe the standing of Judge Bartch
