Representatives Hayes and McKin.

questions. The general tenor OF the
hearing was that. unless something Is

of American commerce with China
will follow. The California members
took no stock In this contention, and
when the hearings are continued, at.
ter the return OF Representative Kahn,
they will contradict the statements OF
friends Of tho Foster bill.
McKinlay said today: "The whole
trouble In China against America
arose under the Supreme Court decis'
ion in the Ju Toy case, which shut out
500 Chinese annually by denying the
habeas corpus privilege. Singularly,
the Foster bill contains provision,
cleverly wordcd, repeating the Ju Toy
decision practically. The result will
be the upsetting Of a long line OF pre-
cedents. causing endless litigation and
needless expense to the Government
Secretary Foord Of the American
Asiatic Association, discussed the sec
ton Of the Presidents message recon
Intending modification OF the Chinese
exclusion act. There Is nothing rad
lcal about the changes the President
| proposes" said Foord. "The Presi-
dents simple remedy is to define the
excluded class OF Chinese and let al
others enter after due consideration
by the consular officers OF the United
States at the port OF departure In Chi
ma and bearing certificates duly vlset
by the officers"

PORTO RICO'S TROUBLES

Washington, March 10. 49, Broad
charges as to the Indifference OF Amer.
lean officials In Porto Rico TO the wish.
es ri Porto Ricans were made by May
or Roberto Todd OF San Juan In hear.
ing before the House Committee on In.
sular Affairs on the proposed bill TO re.
organize the Insular Government.
Mayor Todd charged that the six
American members Of the executive
council, who are also the heads of the
departments OF the Insular Govern.
ment. do not consult the five native
members OF the body and do not even
invite them to meetings of the coun'
ell
This body Il both executive and leg.
islatiye IN is functions. and stands In
the relation OF a Senate to the House
OF Delegates OF Porto Rico. Under the
present government organization the
eleven members of this body are ap'
pointed by tho President of the United
States and Il Is required that only Ave
OF them shall be Porto Ricans. Con
sequently, the natives insist that their
representation is wholly inadequate
and they desire that they be granted
u o'HhRN W uf tl'NlNu Wy INC pfOplS
instead Of the council.
In support of his charge that the
natives in the council are ignored, Ma.
Iyor Todd presented letters from Ro'
sendo Matinenzo Cintron, the present
Speaker OF the House ofDelegates and
former member OF the council; J. Go
mez Briozo and other former members
of the council. Cintron, who was a
member OF the council from 1900 Ia
1904, wrote az follows 20 Mayor Todd:
Il never attended the meetings OF
the so called Cabinet because ! was
never invited to attend the same, and
during the four years OF my lncum
bency as member Of the council | new
err heard that my colleagues, the native
members OF the council, were ever In
yited to attend.
II was never invited and therefore
never attended any meeting OF the ex
ecutiye council In the presence of the
Governor, and only once did | attend
the meeting OF the executive council
outside the regular ones, but not II
the presence of the Governor.
Il only have to add that meeting o.
the executive council which | attend

asked what was the status of thu
native members OF the council and
was assured by Mr.. Hollander tina
: they were mere fgureheads."

Paul NJ Moore Thanks Home Folks and All
Who Took Part in Campaign.
LARGEST. MAJORITY EVER GIVEN
A CANDIDATE IN DARLINGTON.

umn at the election of 1906, in

en- | have loyal, energetic
friends there who have done
things and have put Christian
back into the Republican column
again with a majority that is
creditable in the extreme consid-
ering their present opportuni-
ties.
There are Republicans in each
county of the district who have
done what they could in the
circumstances, during the two
weeks of time in which it was
possible to attempt an organiza-
tion, and who have contributed
of their earnest effort to stimu-
late the small vote it has been
possible to reach. have to ac-
knowledge lasting obligation
also to those speakers who vol
unfairly took the platform in
my behalf and for the party
good, among whom were sever
al local speakers in various
parts of the district; the list in
Guiding Mr.. John Feland, Of
Hopkinsville. and Judge John
f. Lockett, of Henderson, who
separately made addresses in
four counties during the last
four days of the campaign.
All those who have taken part
actively in this brief campaign,
save few close personal friends,
have done so out of devotion to
the Republican party and its
principles and for the party's
present and future good in Ken
lucky. And the support they
have give me because | was the
legal nominee of the Republican
party is as fully appreciated as
though it had been given as per-
sonal to myself.
With time for organization
land pull all together much
better showing could have been
made for the party this year.
But | am satisfied, in the circum-
stances, simply with. the hand
some endorsement given me by
my own townspeople and near
neighbors.
Sincerely,

The trustees of the church prop.

the officials were delighted to
find that things were in such
good condition, financially and
otherwise. Rev. Thompson com
plimented the pastor Rev. Fra

he had made so far. The envel-
ope system of collecting the pas

Sam Jone. Worth $2so.OOO.

Rev. Sam z. Jones left an
estate estimated at $3.50, 900,
consisting largely of valuable
properties in Atlanta, Carriers
vile and other points. Those in
a position to speak authoritative
ly say that for many years Mr..
JONES' income was from $35, 600
to $40, 900 a year from his evan
gelical and lecture work.
Of this great sum he annually
gave away to charitable work
more than two thirds of his earn
ings. His benefactions were so
wide and varied that few but
his own family knew of them.
He rarely spoke of them, and
sought to keep them from the
public.
His life insurance was fully
S75, 900, and this. of course, will
60 to his estate. 1t is believed
that his wife will administer his

STATE SUSTAINED
In Covirston and Cincinnati Bridge Case
by Supreme Court.

Washington, Nov. 5.-In the
case of the Covington and Gin
cinnati Bridge Company VS.. S.
w. Hager, from the Eastern dis
trict of Kentucky, the United
States Supreme Court today
modified the Judgment dismissing
the bills, so as to show that the
case was dismissed for want of
jurisdiction, and thus modified
the Judgment is affirmed.
The case was brought by the
bridge company to compel Hager
to issue his warrant on the State
Treasury for franchise taxes up
on the ground thai it levied
burden on the Interstate Com
merce business of the bridge
company. Hager challenged the
jurisdiction of the court to en-.
tertain the action and the Su-
,preme Court now holds this cor
rect.
"We deem it settled beyond
controversy" says the court,
"until Congress shall otherwise
provide, that Circuit Courts of
the United States have no power
to issue a writ of manda nus in
an original action brought for
the purpose of securing relief by
the writ. And this result is not
changed because the relief sought
concerns an alleged right secured

"The friends thou hast and
their affection tried"-that is
the best reward man may have
anywhere and in anything. The
charitable, magnanimous, hearty
endorsement given to one by his
close friends and neighbors in a
venture of politics or business or
whatnot is the most tangible,
lasting and valuable asset for
which he may hope, whether he
meets victory or defeat in the
particular venture. In my can
didacy for Congress, as the legal
nominee of the Republican party
in the Second District of Ken
lucky, have been honored with
this sort of endorsement at home
and l make public and grateful
acknowledgement for this first of
of all. darlington precincts
have registered for me major
ity of 307, which is the largest
majority ever gwen to any can
didate for office in these pre-
cincts. And this with a light
registration and a much smaller
total vote than usual. To my
friends and neighbors of Earling-
ton and the country side / am
deeply grateful. | would rather
be defeated, as / am and as | ex-
pected to be, by the usual 1000
or more mojority, than to go to
Congress without a vote of con-
fidence at home. make ac-
acknowledgements to those friends
in the county also who found it
possible, in the extremely short
time allowed for the campaign,
to make any real effort to bring
my candidacy to the knowledge
of the voters and create anything
of a voting interest among the
citizens of other parts of Hopkins
county. With practically nc
serious effort exerted in the
county, outside of a few pre-.
cincts, and no time to exert such
effort, it is encouraging that ]
should have missed carrying the
county by so small a margin as
173.
Next to Hopkins is Christian,
which gives me SO good a major
ity as 600, after having gone par
TALLY into the Democratic col
