President Roosevelt authirized the
following statement, which was given
out at the white house Friday:
"The president and Mrs. Roosevelt
ask the kind consideration of many
friends who would under ordinary cir
cumstances receive invitations to Miss
Roosevelt's wedding. The capacity
of the white house required that under
existing circumstances invitations be
limited to the closest kinsfolS, the
personal friends Of Miss Roosever
and Mr.. Longworth and certain classes
OF officials in Washington. No friends
of the president or Mrs. Roosevels are
being asked unless they also come
within one of those classes; and even
with these limitations the number Of
guests threatens to overtax the capac-
ity of the white house."

Florida Times-Union causticaiIy Conn

Apropos of the strike Of union prfn-
ters on the Times Union, Jacksonville,
Fla, because of the refusal Of the
proprietors to discharge foreman
who is alleged to have violated all
precedents, rules and regulations
which must obtain in Offices under the
Jurisdiction of the typographical union,
that paper prints the following:
Let it be clearly understood that
the Times.Union is not fighting the
Typographical UnionAthe union is
fight the Times-Union.
The paper claims and has advocated Z
for many years the right OF men to
organize in their mutual interests and
for the maintenance Of their rights,
Justly and equitably administered, but
has as vigorously denied the right OF
any organization to inaugurate unjust
rules and manipulate them for wrong.
The issue forced upon the Times
Union is, who shall run the business
of the paper as applied to the me-
chanical department, whether the
union shall dictate arbitrary and ua-
Just rules as to the method and the
fashion of conducting this business. or
whether the management shall assume
it's inherent privilege and right OF do
ing so.
The management, while requiring
nothing unreasonable, has decided
firmly upon the latter course, and.
this decision shall be maintained at
all hazards to the end, without amend
ment or concession.

QUERIES WORRY BILL,
Plain Citizen Robinson Of the itshmus
of Panama Comes Back at War
Secretary Taft. .

care you a Caesarian atavism or
reincarnation of some turbaned, robed,
sworded despot of the Orient?"
This question has been put 70 Sec
retary of War Taft by no less per-
son than Mr.. Tracy Robinson, former
resident of New York, who, for forty
five years has been resident of the
isthn1us Of Panama. Mr.. Robinson
has a grievance and Secretary Taft is
it. He does not at all like the refer
ences to himself in the secretary's
very pointed comment upon the So
called expose of Panama conditions
written by Poultney Bigelow.
Mr.. Robinson confesses that he did
give Mr.. Bigelow much of the mate
rial for that article to which Secre-
tary Taft took such strong exception.
"Mr. Bigelow can take care Of him.

antidote for the venom from your Ca
pacious distillery," he writes. Il am
obscure, more easily crushed by your
great weight" He resents the sug-
gestion of having IAN animus
against the government" because he
failed to get good job under the
canal commission.
MIR. Robinson calls him 'sbrave
Poultney Bigelow," and says he told
the truth about the swamp conditions
at Colon. "You," he says to Secre-
tary Taft, "are posing as great man
which you are not And thereupon
he puts to the secretary these ques-
tions: care you above and beyond
the law of libel? Do you hold the fair
fame Of men in your keeping? Have
you appropriated for canal use the
vast outlying jungle of lies"".
: Secretary Taft wears worried look.
He is wondering whether it can be
true that he is a Caesarian atavism.
He is wondering, also, what Cae-
sarian atavism is
There is some mystery about this
letter. It has been sent to the press
as coming from Mr.. Edmund Clar-
ence Stedman, the author, to whom
Mr.. Bigelow in his testimony referred
as a close friend Of Mr.. Robinson,
but Mr.. Stedman has repudiated any
connection with it.

A MUTUAL" ARREST.
Captor. ard Prisoner Handcuffed To-
uether Attract Attention on the
Streets of st. Louis.

Two men, shackled to each other,
one being further secured by hand
cuffs, walked through the streets of
St. Louis, Mo-, Monday. followed by
curious crowds. They were sightsee-
ing and their route included the four
courts and many saloons. One was
E. W. Martin, aged so, a farmer Of
Spring Place, Ca, and the other, Viii
liam H. Barnes, aged 81, of Pleasant
Fill, III.
Barnes was the prisoner. BY mutual
consent, and without warrant Of iaW,
the strange pair entered the four
courts. The other man, eSc.-ed and
nervous, asked to see the. chief Of
police To an officer he said:
This man is my prisoner. He
stole my horse and buggy and I'm
taking him back to Georgia and I
want you to hold him until 8 o'clock,
when my train goes out. I haven't
got a warrant for him, and he hasn't
been indicted, but here are the pa
pers."
He showed a document signed by
himself and by Barnes, according to
the terms Of which Barnes agreed to
accompany Martin from Pleasant Hill
ILL.,, to Spring Place, Ca, without
requisition.
"Now he's baking and he says
Missouri is such a good place that
he wants to stay here, and SO I guess
I'll have to have him locked up, y
said Martin.
His request was refused, because
there was no warrant authorizing the
St. Louis police to hold the prisoner.
After being requested to leave the
chiefs Office Martin said to a re-
porter:
'This young fellow was working in
Spring Place sawmill last September
and boarded at my house. He was
known there as Larry Crockett. He
complained that the work was too
hard, and I hired him to sell poultry
food for me- He left my house with
my horse and buggy and forty pack
ages of the food September 26 and
never returned"

speech for the measure was delivered
by Mr.. Hepburn of Iowa, who depicted
the brutality of the man who would

be whipped was hardly adequate pun

cussion with a serious speech in favor
Of the bill. All the opposing speeches
partook of levity, and Mr.. Adams re-
ceived more than one fling because
he is a bachelor.
Mr.. Sims of Tennessee, opposing
the measure, predicted that it would
get one vote only in the house. The
president, he said, had advocated in.

Is the Gratuitous Demand of
Grand Army Men.
DISLIKE STARS AND BARS
Southerners Consider Arbitrary Action
Taken BY Department Of Potomac
as Absolutely Unworthy OF
Consideration.

A Washington special says: Resolu-
tons protesting against the display
OF the confederate flag on public oc-
casicns were adopted at the annual
encampment of the department CT the
Potomac, grand army Of the republic,
Saturday night.
The resolutions, which were unani
mously adopted, read:
:, .sWhereas, it is creditably report
ed that the flag of the late so-catled
Confederate States of America is be-
ing displayed in public places and on
public occasions; and,
s'Whereas, to all defenders Of the
stars and stripes and all who were
loyal to the union, that was, is and
ever will be, the insignia of an attempt
by force of arms to divide our coun-
try and destroy our government; and,
whereas, if in this reunited land
there is room for but one flag, and
that one the star-spangled banner
therefore, be it
Resolved, by the department Of the
Potomac, grand army of the republic,
That we view with regret and sorrow
the public display Of an emblem
which tends to keep alive the bitter
ness and animosity engendered by th1e
war, which it should be the aim Of
: every good citizen to allay.
= '.Resolved, That such a course
serves to instill in the minds of the
coming generations aversion, if not
hostility, to our national emblem, and
is not in accordance with the oft-re-
peated profession made by the south
ern people of their love for the ma
I. tional emblem.
sResolved, That in the interest Of
the peace and good will to all, which
we earnestly desire to promote, we
earnestly request all eX-confederate
soldiers, orce our gallant foes, but
now our fellow citizens, and sharers
with us in the pride of American
yalor and heroism, and all the noble
spirited people of the beautiful south
land, to abstain from all public dis
I play of that emblem, which tends
only to keep alive feelings which
ought to be buried
The publication Of these resolutions
Sunday morning attracted some atten-
tion5 among southerners in Washing
ton,$ but the general feeling among
Tex confederates is that they are not
worthy giving serious consideration:
Southerners feel that the action OF
this grand army of the republic post
serves to show how little the real feel
ings ot southerners are appreciated at
the north.
