Hon. G. Q. Hildebraut, of Whining
ton, was circulating among friends
here last Friday. MIR. Hildebrant is
candidate for the Republican con-
gressional nomination in this district
and from all appearances will land an
easy winner. He already has the solid
endorsement of his own county with
very strong following in the other five
counties In the district. His record
in congress was exceptionally fine
and he is the only man that has repre-
sented 1t who had strength enough to
become chairman of committee. The
public generally knows that he was
the regular and rightful nominee of
the party two years ago and was
robbed of the position by political
trickery. With the strong public
opinion that is for him this time it is
not thought that the trick can be re-
peated.

CAR MADE A COCKTAIL.
New York Doctor Taught Him the
Trick and He Was an Apt
Pupil

"The present czar of Russia learned
the art OF making an American cock
tail from an American physician" said
A man In an uptown saloon where he
was slipping the old fashioned tlpple.
II have that from tie physician him.
self" relates the New York Sun.
Not only that, bu. sip.1ed cock
tail made from the saGo for nula. out
Of handsomely carved cup which bore
an inscription from the donor, who at
the time was czarevitch. and which
had contained the stirrup cup drunk
at the last meeting. between the Rus
sian heir apparent and the American
doctor.
THE doctor was a few years ago
practicing in city In western New
York. He was once an attache Of the
Russian court and had some appoint
ment, ] have forgotten what, later on.
"One evening. when he had been
called to see the czarevitch, the talk
ran to American drinks. The new
doctor carried his own stock of Amer.
ican liquors. He spoke Of the Ameri-
can cocktail which at that time, was
the most called for mixed drink at the
bar.
THE czarevitch was amused at the
name. He thought 1t was a joke. The
Yankee doctor assured him 1t was not.
THE czarevitch said he would like
to try the drink. The doctor brought
in his ingredients and prepared a
cocktail in the presence of the czare-
witch, who was intensely interested.
When he had tasted it he went into &C.
stacies and called for more.
After he had sampled several cock.
tails he prepared to make the mixture
himself. and learned with much more
ease than than he has learned some
other things since.
when the American doctor was
leaving ST. Petersburg the czarevitch
had ascended the throne. The physi-
clan asked leave to pay his respects
and was accorded an audience.
THE emperor reminded him that he
was an expert in mixing the Ameri-
can tipple. and thereupon they re-
paired to a private room where the
czar Of all the Russias produced some
American whisky and the ingredients
to work out a cocktail. The czar
mixed drinks for the two like regular
barkeep and enjoyed 1t.
THE czar assured the doctor that 1t
was the greatest bracer he ever took.
But then. you know, royalty lays on
its praise and compliments with a
trowel. However, tire doctor was
probably the only American who ever
had the ruler OF Russia mix and give
him a cocktail"

 Application was made to Congress to incorporate the Columbia Telephone Company to operate a competing tele. phone service in the District of Colum- bfa. Congress refused to grant the ap- plication on the recommendation of the Commissioners. who sad:
 The Commissioners explain that they have advised against the incorpo- ration of additional telephone compa- nies in the District in the belief that the telephone service could be better rendered by single company under proper management and at proper rates than by two or more companies having separate lines and instruments.

 Tn answer to an official inquiry from Spokane, Wash, as 10 the results of telephone competition, MT. Hcag wrote:
 50 far as Cleveland is concerned, the experiment of competition in the tele- phone business has been little less than calamity. Many of the telephone users are paying for two telephones instead of one. A comparison of the directories of the two companies Gin 1902) shows over 5000 subscribers who have instruments from both compan- ies-5.000 phones at the lowest legal rate ($36 per year) of the independent companies would amount to S1S0,000 per year. The writer can understand why a manufacturer of telephone ap- paratus and supplies would, directly or indirectly, advocate the building of an independent exchange in your city. It would add to his business and presu,n- ably to his profit; but I cannot conceive of any benefit that would accrue to your people by the establishing of an- other exchange with your present rates.
 Briefly the results of telephone conn petition in Cleveland have been as fol- lows: The streets are encountered with many poles that would be unnecessary if we had only one company: the pres ent users of telephones are paying probably s175,000 or $200,000 per year more in rentals than they would with one system; there is the inconvenience of looking through two directories in stead of one to find subscribers names; many small investors and some larger ones have made investments which have not up to the present time prov ed desirable"
