The Secretary of War is pre-

which so much was hoped, was
pigeon holed by the committee
which refused to make any report

tary of War is framing a com

some chance of a hearing. 1t

that the fifty per cent. reduction
will have no worse effect on the
protected industries of this coun-

duction now in force which 1t VIII

orOusly at its inception by the
protected interests. This country
has not suffered by the removal
of the duty on Hawaiian sugar

a politician and agitator for reforms
He was celebrated in each country par

Etrate, combining these offices with

ATTEMPTED REVIVAL OF A
DISCREDITABLE PRACTICE
DECEIVING THE GOV
ERNOR REG DING A
LOCAL APPOINTMENT OF A
JUSTICE OF THE PEACE

Some years ago The CITIZEN, back
ed up by the Democratic organization
of this county, entered protest
against system then in vogue by
Magistrates, Coustables and the Sheriff
of pluudering the tax payers of thous-
ands of dollars through system
worked under some kind of law. The
tramps " ere run in by the County
Constables aud Magistrates committed
them the Sheriff charged the county
a per dienI, hall or ii quarter was the
actual cost of keeping them, aud the
rest went into the pocket of the Sher-
i'll. Their bills amounted to from
twelve to fifteen and sometimes eight
teen thousand dollars per year. The
Magistrates made from ten to eight
teen hundred dollars per year, AMI the
Constables in proportion. These sums
were tieeced from the tax payers of
this county until "a promise was made
that if a Democratic Sheriff was elected
this outrage would end. Luther Derr
was elected Sheriff aud then and there
Democratic Legislature changed the
law, and although Mr. Derr's friends
urged that he should have chance,
the promise made 10y The CITIZEN to
the taxpayers was faithfully carried out,
and our Democratic Sheriff received
but three thousand dollars per annum.
Dat of t is he paid certain expenses.
The law was also changed regarding
tue Magistrates and Constables and
these big grating fees were reduced

the Peace appointed for this district

lLess III other districts they never
dream of such breach of faith. The
taxpayers of this county do not intend
to go back to the disgraceful system of
gait as once practiced in this county.
No Magistrate can set up shop and do
business in this way. No County
Constable can expect TO escape the
censure of the people by INDUCING III
questionable methods. When the
Central Committees of the different
districts of the county made out their
civil lists it was made in good faith,
and the men accepting these positions
did so with tue implied understanding
that they had asked for these appoint
ments for their home districts. Some
very shady proceedings have come to
us by general report as to how Que
County Magistrate backed up by a
little crowd, deceived the Governor,
secured his appointment, aud now
under the guidance of few men has
decided to utterly disregard the wishes
of Governor Wartield and do business
i'll Frederick District. His commits
sion, however, expressly states that he
was appointed Tor his home district.
We shall inquire into the facts in this
case aud give the particulars later on.

FOR SEA LEVEL CANAL.
Senate Committee so Recon-

nOAQO w OODS O00'
The decision of the Senate Com
mittee on Interoceanic Canals is
in favor of a sea level canal across
the lSthmuS of Panama. Senator
Carmack returned from Tennessee
and gave the sea level advocates
a majority of one vote COnse-
quently Chairman Willard was
the only one Of the minority fac
ton who attended the meeting.
There was no other business be
fore the committee and it remain
ed in session just long enough to
authorize Senator ittredge to
make the report, to be presented
to the Senate as soon as the min.
GRITTY may have an opportunity to
prepare their views for a lock
canal. The two reports will be
made at the same time.
The vote was had on a resOlu-
tiOn presented by Senator Kit
tredge declaring it to be the sense
of the committee that the con
struction of a SEA level be recon
mended. On the motion the afiir-
NATIVE votes were Messrs. Plat,
Kittredge, Ankeny, Morgan, Car
mack and Tallaferro. Chairman
Willard voted in the negative.
Senators Knox, Hopkins, Sim
mons and Dryden were not pres
ent. All of these are supporters
