Harbor

The House committee on appropriations
today authorized a favorable report on a
bill appropriating $4,000 for the purchase
by the government of Deer Island In Bos-
ton harbor. The bill is to be reported to-
day ard will probably be acted on imme-
diately.
Secretary Taft explained to the committee
the necessity for the purchase of the island.
1t is the intention, he said. to fortify the
island as a protection to the new channel
in the haroor. The penal institution is to
remain on the island likewise the WORKS

The bill contains clause which stipula. es
that the government shall be liable for any
damage which may be caused other prop

explained that for all artillery practice fire
the subcaliber would be used. which would
practically insure that no damage from
this source would result The title 10 the
Island Is TO be acquired from the city OF
Boston, and the price fixed by the city Is
understood to be an especially low one 80

QUESTIONS HIS GREATNESS.
Criticism of Washington by Rev. DR..
David Steele.

George Washington is not first in war,
first in peace, and certainly not first in the
heart Of at least one of his countrymen,'
according to the Rev. DIR. David Steele,
rector of st. Luke's. Philadelphia. At .he
evacuation day exercises at Valley Forge
yesterday, according to the New York Sun,
he got after ideals about Washington.
The speaker admitted that, considered
compositely, Washington was an ideal
country gentleman. but he could not be
analysed because he was not a churchman,
for he would rather follow the hounds on
Sunday than sit in church; he was not an
ideal soldier, for, though commander-In-
chief of the American army. battle was
never won by his command. His states
manshp, it was asserted. was not beyond
question.

First Primary in North Dakota.

The first primary election In North Da-
kota under the new law was held yester-
day. The chief contest was between the
so-called '1nsurgent" and machine fac
lions of the republican party. The insur
gents claim Richland, the home of Senator
McCumber, and they assert that they win
carry most Of the northern counties. while
the regulars win have most OF the south
ern and Missouri slope counties. Both fac
tfons claim control of the state convention,
which win be held July IL at jamestown.
The democratic vote was very light. as
there were practically no contests In that
party.
