Cincinnati, O., Aug. Ex-senator J..
B. Foraker arrived here from Wash
ington today Said he:
"There is no ground for saying there
has been any split between the pres
ident and the senator's So far as
am aware our personal and official
and political relations are of the most
cordial character.

matters which demand attention.
'"The country was never before as
prosperous as now. People were never
so busy. They were never, in my
opinion, so we'll satisfied, with ex-
isting conditions. The result will be
tremendous Republican victories again
in November. | notice that in the
Thirteenth district there were pres
ent at the convention that re-nom1n-
ated Mr.. Mouser, something like 5000
people, and so it has been at our con-
gressional conventions all over the
state. These are encouraging mani
festations that the people understand
and appreciate the good work the con-
gress has been doing, and the splen-
did and successful administration
President Roosevelt has been giving

ENLIST MENT
Of Soldiers Resumed by
Cuban Government
For the Suppression
of the Rebellion.

Havana, Aug. 2S.-The government
today resumed the enlistment of sol
diers for the suppression of the rebel
lion. Companies are being made up
and drilled near the city and the
town wears a somewhat warlike ap-
pearance.
Secretary Font, of the treasury, said
to the Publishers Press correspondent
today:
I'VE intend to push rapidly the en-
listment of the soldiers until we have
a large army. Then we propose to
maintain it in the future. We do not
intend in days to come to be caught
unprepared for such emergencies as
have arisen IN the past week"
The government is confident that
the revolt is now in its last throes.
Many rebels are surrendering under
the amnesty proclamation In unof-
fetal circles, however, there is some
doubt whether the governments rosy
view is justified.
A sensational case of alleged treaeh-
cry has developed in one of the vol
unteer companies organized to fight
the insurgents. Three men in the
company testified today before
special judge that all the men in their
company, excepting the three who tes-
titled, had planned to kill their COM
mander and join the insurgents. The
plot was discovered before the COM
pany was sent into the field.

Why Gcod-Bys Multiply.

What is the psychological reason
which makes women pro.ong good
bys? asks the Brookline Times. Mrs.
G.. B. Carpenter, president of the Chi
cago Woman's Club, says: "T should
say that it is because woman, as a
rule, does not think out logically what
she lays and does not concentrate her
mind upon n line of thought. When
one woman meets another she does
not do as a :nan would and gather to-
gether in her mind the things she
wants to say tc this particular person.
She has not made any inventory of
them and consequently she begins hit
or miss. Then, when it has apparently
all been said, she thinks of. something
else. So she hastily calls her friend
back. Perhaps, or rather probably,
the other roman does the same thing,
and so good-bys multiply"

tho bulk Of the people Who attend
tho Congress would wsnt"to come
over and see us and Our country,
and to take q little time to spin
out and see something besides
what they could see from the cars.
Let every town have a nice dis
play Of farm products nicely ar
ranged for them to see the first
thing when they stop, or after we
fill up the vacant spots under
their vests.
Then have a nice lot of rigs
to take as many as possible ont
for a short drive to see some of
our, worst? country SO they could
see where some Of our big po-
tatoes and sugar beets grow, and
where some of our nice plump
wheat and oats grew, and oar
orchards that have produced the
apples, pears and other fruits
that we have shown them.
Then to top 1t all off, give each
one a nice little folder gotten up
in nice shape with a short write-up
of our resources.
If we will all take hold of this
movement and werk together and
not have every fellow think he
has the only farm there is to see
or that his town or surrounding
country is the only locality, but
work for the advertisement of the
entire valley, we can do ourselves
a world Of good.
When Mr.. Quinn sends out for
his subscriptions, lets all 60 down

but for dollars and fves, and
make him open his eyes when he

to him and tell him what we want
and have him arrange the ex-
cursion SO that we can all have a
chance TO show them something,
and know when to expect them,
and be ready for them when they
come.
When they come, do things up

Monte 3. Quinn CominS.

-
Msnas B. Quinn Coming.
A representative Of the Repub
iican interviewed Monte B. Quinn
chairman Of the executive com,
mittee for the national irrigation
congress, at Boise last week, and
when asked what 10 is planning
for the state at the next meeting,
he said,
"The meeting has been set for
the week of Sept. 3rd to 9Th. Il
has always been held at that sea-
son. and it was thought unwise to
hold it earlier. The crops will be
matured, fairs will be n progress,
the busy season will be over for
farmers all ove;.' the United States
and we think we car secure a bet
ter attendance then than at any
other time.
A great deal depends on our
getting this matter before the peo-
pie and in getting proper rates on
the railroads. | have seen repre-
s%entatives of many of our great
newspapers and railroad lines,
and they all say they will do all
they can, and that means a great
deal. They want from two to
four months to get it before the
public and to lay the plans. We
Idahoans have to begin sooner
than that. We must raise ten
thousand dollars by popular sub
scription to do the work. We
shall require an immense amount
of correspondence to start the
work, so that the expense for
stamps and stationary will run into
hundreds Of dollars, besides the
cost Of clerical force.
We expect to furnish matter for
the big dailles Of the country to
publish for some time before the
meeting, and 1t will tax Idaho to
entertain the delegates when they
come. We expect a trainload
from Missouri; Rivrer points an
other train.oad from the south,
one from California and one from
the northwest, besides those that
gather in from everywhere on
their own account. Manufacturers
and travelling statesmen are getting
especially interested because of
the effect upon trade, which the
reclamation of arid lands is max
ing"
Ex-Governor Pardee of California
is president and he is working all
all the time for this meeting. He
knows everybody far and near,
and he writes personal letters to
the governors of all the states; be
writes another letter to each SEN
ator, and to each member of con-.
gress. Another to manufacturing
interests, and SO on, outlining
some particular work for each to
do to make this meeting a greater
success. He has been working
in this congress so long hal he
knows what to do and how to do
it. He tells me the Boise meet
ing will undoubtedly be the great
est session ever held, aad urges
us to make every preparation to
how the delegates the irri gable
portions of the state"
"We do not intend to keep
them here at Boise all the time
and then let them 60 home. We f,
will have them bring their own
trains and hold them here on the +,

then ~ will 60 out to Gee the
state in pullman cars. No place
in the state could possibly keep
them over night, but each town
they visit 1t meal time can arrange
to feed them, and will no doubt,
be glad to show them the ssfat Of
the land" Each town can pre-
pare such an exhibit of their pro-
ducts as they may wish, can dis
tribute literature among them set
ting forth the natural resources OF
their locality, and by keeping in
touch with those IN charge of the
excursion. can use the two or three
hours stop to great advantage.
The excursion will be made mp of
homeseekers, persons looking for
investments, representatives Of
great manufacturing interests, rep
resentatives Of newspapers all over
the country, each anxious to secure
and publish information about
Idaho, and statesmen who will be
called upon to deal with legisla-
ton vitality affecting our welfare.''
"Of course we have not yet
worked out the details. That
must be done as the season ad-
vances, but we shall take the big
excursion down to Weiser and
Payette, and then show them all
the big irrigation projects of the
state from there up to the Yellow
stone Park. 1t will be the great
est excursion ever seen in Idaho,
and made up of the kind OF men
who can do us the most good.
They will scatter out over the
United States and do more to
bring Idaho to the front than any
thing else that could happen"
| will take a tour of the state in
a short time to organize local com
mlttees for the work. The first
thing to be done is to raise the
money to carry on the work, and
then put our shoulders to the
wheel to make it a great success.

Dorp, on Staten Island. was so named
by the Dutch to distinguish II from
Dude Dorp (Old Dorp). the first Dutch
settlement on the island. which was
thrice destroyed by the Indians. Old
Dorp stood to the northwest OF Fort
Wadsworth, about where Arrochar
now stands. Two miles to the west of
the ruins of Old Dorp the persistent
Dutch built their New Dorp.

hills are named from him-was OF the
family of the Earl of Limerick. and the

Governor Dongan's descendants still
live on Staten Island, some of them &C.

Dongan merely had hunting lodge on

TO REPUBLICANS:

We are anxious TO have every
Republican in close touch, and work
ing in harmony with the Republican
National Congressional Committee in
favor of the election of Republican

The Congressional campaign must
be based on the administrative and
Legislative record of the party, and,
that being SO, Theodore Roosevelt's
personality must be central figure
and his achievements a central
thought in the campaign.
We desire to maintain the work OF
this campaign with popular subscrip-

licans. To each subscriber we will
send the Republican National Cam
paign Text Book and all documents
issued by the Committee.
Help us achieve a great victory.
