The Committeeman at Home.

From the Atchison Globe
An Atchison wife is reasonable In every
other way, but she won't let her husband
serve on a committee. HE wears me out

Portsmouth Democracy Demoralized
Special Correspondence OF The Star.
PORTSMOUTH. Va. July J. 1905

Special Correspondents OF The Star.
PORTSMOUTH. Va, July /. 1905
The Montague Martin senatorial contest
completely demoralized the Portsmouth
democracy. John c. Nienleyer. the candi-
date for the state senate. who is the choice
OF the people OF Portsmouth. between
which the Norfolk county the senatorship
rotates, has been bitterly opposed by Sam
uel T. Montague chairman of the execu-
tive committee and an adherent of Gov
ernor Montague. He was deposed as chair
man by Mr.. Niemeyer's friend, and he now
declares that the committee is in insur-
recuon against the party law. He further
claims that 1t has by its own act abol-
ished itself.
Portsmouth is believed to be solidly for
Senator Martin. and the fight over the
state senatorship will not change the re-
suit. 1t. however shows the bitterness OF
feeling between the adherents of the two
factions.

afternoon.
The visitors of the sister republic were re-
ceived at the navy yard with all the honors
due their rank. The admiral and his entire
staff, in full uniform, were at the landing to
greet them the launch bearing the Bra

The marine guard was paraded In their
honor, and as they passed down the line. ac-
companied by their host and his staff, the
band played the Brazilian national air.
Arrived at the home of the commandant a
sumptuous luncheon was served. Admiral
and Mrs. Harrington were assisted in re-
ceiving by the officers of the station and
their wives.
Many visitors from the two cities have
been aboard the Brazilian vessel since she
has been here. and 1t has been point with
every one to accord them such courtesies as
would atone for the affront unintentionally
offered by a number of guests at the Hotel
Neddo. Norfolk, who, under the impression
that the swarthy Brazilian officers were
negroes refused to eat in the same dining
room with them.

Now what are we to believe as

articles were furnished by differ

AS II IS.

There always has been and
perhaps always will be class in
the United States opposing tariff
stability. Like cases occur in
every day life wherein the peo-
pie Or certain per cent, at least,
are never satisfied. They want
a change Of conditions no mat
ter how agreeable in the main
those conditions are to the
masses.
Just so with our tariff policy.
Shortly after the election of
President Roosevelt last fall there
was cry, more or less weak,
set up throughout the land for
tariff revision. This gradually
subsided. Then came the change
of base on the part Of mal-con-
tents and reciprocity was made a
slogan. The Vinton (Iowa) Eagle
very neatly and aptly sums up
the situation as follows:
In 1896 the Republican party
promised Tariff revision. It re-
vised the Tariff then in existence
and brought prosperity to the
country. This prosperity still
exists. It has made no promise
of revision since. The party has
put in weary months trying to
make operative reciprocity. 1t
has failed because Of too many
tentangling alliances. - In the
1896 National Republican Con-
vention the Republican party
agreed to take up the silver ques-
ton and President Mckinley ap-
nointed commissioners to an in
ternational monetary convention,
one Of its purposes being to re-
establish silver as a circulating
medium. That there might be
no charge of trifing he appoint
ed as the head Of the commits
sion from this county the late
Senator Wolcott, OF Colorado
The commission met but it's la
bors were futile and Senator
Wolcott acknowledged that ii
was impossible to induce the
great commercial powers to re-
establish silver. Since then sew
eral nations, including Mexico,
have established the gold system.
The Republican party will be
guided by public sentiment anc
by party sentiment, and wher
party sentiment and public senti
ment demand there is no doubt
a revision will take place. What
viii be done is we'll evidenced by
the Presidents action on the
freight rate question. It nae
with a unanimous response ex
eept from the interests involved
1t will be so with the Tariff
Even with the Democratic ranl
and file there is but little or nj
demand for Tariff revision. It il
satisfied, and last fall was 81
well satisfied that it had no hesi
fancy in voting for Presiden
Roosevelt even when their owl
managers held the red flag of re
vision before their eyes. It dit
not scare them. They acknowl
edged they were as well satisfied
with the Tariff as were the Re
publicans. The Republican part.
has made no promises that it ha
not religiously carried out or hon
estly attempted to.

A Little Confusing.

One not versed in law is often
at his "wits end" to arrive at
logical conclusion as regards
legal tangle. Even lawyers seem
to get mixed now and then. Two
legal lights of equal standing
may render opinions on a certain
point that are directly opposite,
but it is seldom that we find one
man quoted on the same question
who within period of startling
briefness gives out two opinions,
one contradicting the other, on
the same subject. Yet, such is
true in Portland if one is to be-
lieve the Telegram. This paper,
of Thursday, contains the fol-
lowing notice:
''In the course of the trial of
Messrs. johnson aud McGlinn,
proprietors of the Tuxedo Saloon.
Municipal Judge Cameron held
today that women of apparent
good character could not be ex-
cluded from saloons, or rather
tnat the proprietors of such places
could not be found guilty of per-
mitting females to frequent those
places unless it was shown that
such women were disorderly or
disreputable. The proprietors of
the Tuxedo were fined $50 each
for permitting disorderly women
in their saloon and were held un-
der bonds of 5000 each to appear
before the grand jury to answer
a charge of permitting minors in
the place, as prohibited by the
new law. Jane Common is the
minor referred to. She was found
drunk there recently"
Bear in mind that in the above
paragraph Judge Cameron points
out that proprieto-s of saloons
cannot be fond guilty of any
misdemeanor for allowing women
to frequent their places unless
it was shown the women were
disorderly or disreputable.'' On
another page of this same paper
we find the following article:
eff Judge Cameron holds to
the opinion he expressed in police
court today in the case of Harry
Bowen of the FL Rey saloon,
hereafter women of all classes
will have to remain fzom saloons,
Or the proprietors will be subject
to arrest. The cases before the
court were those in which the
police raided the saloons and
captured about six women.
Judge William Reid appear
ed for the defendants and dec1ar-
ed the women were not of ques-
t1onable character. The police
swore they were, Judge Gamer
on read section 6 of the ordinance
governing disorderly saloons and
from that he thought a proprietor
could be arrested if women o.
any kind visited his saloon The
ordinance, aside from specitving
disorderly women, says i1nmodest
women. Judge Cameion said
when a women entered a saloon
and began to drink, and smoke
cigarettes she becomes ir11modest,
He said he thought the section
referred to any woman.
sJudge Reid said it would be
an outrage if a man could not g
with his wife to a saloon and cal
crawhsh and drink glass O
beer. He asked until tomorrow
to submit an argument, which
request was granted.
sJudge Cameron said the
police should have notified Bower
that he was violating the Law
and then arrest him if he did no
comply Judge Cameron said h'
was not inclined TO punish the
women with a heavy fne.n

SoFT-EYED MEN OF PACIFIC
Loochoo Islanders Who Possess Most Winning and Remark
 able Optics.

A woman traveller who lately visited the Loochoo islands, in the Pacific, de- scribes her first impressions in the North China Herald The first thing that struck her on landing was the fact that the coolies who tumbled lazily aboard her ship were very much addict- ed to the use of hats, and very little to the use of any other clothing" She continues: q can best describe the hats by an exclamation of. one of oW party, What beautiful waste paper baskets they'd make!' These hats were fastened on with loops of thick, brown, hairy palm rope, through which were passed cotton strings tied under the chin. Every mans face was ornament ed with a thin, brownish black beard and mustache, and it was often hard to tell where the beard left off and the hairy rope began. Wisps of unkempt hair also struggled about the neck, giv- ing to the man the look of some savage creature. Taking in these details, my eyes came at last to the eyes of these seemingly wild savages, and To! looked into large, soft black eyes, so wide apart, like those of the ruminating animals. And in their depths lurked good-natured smile, just waiting to an swer one from me. never got used to the incongruous effect of those gentle eyes and that fierce beard on each other."

COLLEGE GIRL AS MOTHER
Collection of Baby Pictures Shows
 Conclusive Evidence of Fitness.

An instructor at vassar college has an odd and interesting collection of photo graphs-the photographs of the babies of young women who are college gradu- ates, says an exchange, are strong and beautiful. They number over 300. The instructor said of them:
 q began to collect pictures of ths children of female A. B.'s and A. Ms because I had heard so much talk about the higher education uniting woman for her natural sphere, and so on.
 My collection proves that the high CT education makes mothers of an ex- cellece hitherto unknown. Highly edu- cated women don't weaken themselves with tight corsets, with overmuch danc- ing and card playing. They are athletic aud strong. Their bodies as we'll as their minds are developed.
 They enter upon the duties of moth erhood with unique courage and wis., dom and strength. and the result is that their babies are the biggest, strongest, little creatures"
 She pointed toward the 300 photo graphs.
 But just look at those pictures, she cried. Just look at them"

CAPTURING THE WILD Duca
Clever Scheme of the Chinese Is Suc- cessful Among the Wary
 Water Fowl.

A full-grown wild duck fS ono of the most wary of all wild creatures. A wa- terman may be working all day loaS with shovel and pickax, says the authQs of Bird Life and Lore" barely stones throw from large flock of widgeon aAA wild ducks, and they will not notice htn. for they know that he means them nA harm. But let sportsman enter tho meadows and hide his gun ever % care- fully, and make himself ever % smaa. 1t is ten to one that they will rise In . cloud when he is some four gunshcAs away from them, and take thsmselv0 of to place of greater safety.
 There is one method of taking will ducks in considerable numbers. pre- ticed in China and in some other coxn~ tries, which is 50 amusing and so little known as to deserve notice.
 The natives take care that . large number of big calabashes, or gourds, should always be left floating on the va, ter frequented by the birds, till they get to regard them as part and parcel of their resorts. The duck-hunter chooses his time, and, putting one Of the calabashes, with holes cut for his
 mouth and eyes, upon his head. he wades through the lake. taking care to keep the whole of his body well be- meath the surface. He cautiously ap- breaches the unsuspecting wild fowl, and. catching one of them by the leg, pulls him, with sudden jerk, beneath the water, causing hardly more commo- tion of the surface than the duck itself often makes when it dives, or plashes, or p1unges for it's food. He wrings its neck under the water and fastens 1t to his belt. Then he deals with another and another in the same fashion, till he makes his retreat, equally unnoticed, with whole girdleful of captured wild ducks round his waist.
