property, the doing OF which caused him
to hammer the sailor up bit.
This morning, the union lonp shoremen
who have been loading the three sailing
vessels at the Slade mill quit work, un-
der the fiimsy excuse that they were not
safe working alongside the non.union
men, who are loading the steamers.
Ibis, it is thought, has been done for
effect at the hearing tomorrow of the ap-
p'icatlon for permanent injunction in
the superior court.
The reason for considering this
filmsy excuse is the story of this chas.
tisement OF the sailor by Watchn man
Lane. AS he tells it, and he is corrobor.
ated by the mate Of the NewDurg and his
brother, captain OF the schooner Reso-
lutte. which i, at Hoquian, who were
ON the deck of the Newburg, and wit
messed the entire affair. They all agree
that Lane ordered the man off the
property he was watching, and that the
sailor attempted to assault the watch.
man, and who simply hammered the
camas out Of his would be assai!ant. Be-
fore the longshoremen quit this morning
they told Manager Mack of the reason,
and he suggested that if his watchman-
or anybody else on the Slade premises
violated the law in any particular he
would aid in their prosecution, and sug.
gested that if they believed this sailor
had been unlawfully assaulted they
should have Lane arrested. At the time
OF this going to press no complaint has
been made against Lane, SO that the pre-.
sumption is forced that the sailor got
what he might have expected, and that
his error was in under estimating the
lighting capacity of Watchman Lane.
In this connection, disagreeable rumots
are current concerning the attitude OF

THE LATE congress-
What IT HAS Done and LEFT
UNDONE.
DemOCrafiC Achievements. LegiSla-
tion Favorable for the People of
Democratic Origin. Independent
Republicans Join the Democrats in
Forcing Important Measures.

The session of congress just concluded
has shown the power Of an honest and
vigilant minority. The democrats we're
signaly successful in forcing the passage
OF the railroad rate bill, although they
could not defeat its mutiIation on i'm.
portant amendments. They Joined with
honest republicans in defeating the
Roosevelt and the republican machine
program for the admission of Arizona
and New Mexico as one state and in
passing the enabling act for the admis.
sion OF Oklahoma. The democrats com
PEELED the republicans to pass the Till.
man-Gillespe resolution for the inves:i-
CATION of the railroads and the coal and
oil companies, which has already result
ed in the startling exposures of the
Pennsylvania railroad scandals. They
have, with republican assistance. de.
feated the Santo Domingo treaty, which
so greatly enlarged the scope OF the
Monroe doctrine and threatened to in
volve us in quarrels with all the South
American republics, and likewise the
notorious ship subsidy steal. which was
recommended by President Roosevelt.
If. the democrats had been in power
they would have passed many meritori-
Gus measures which the majority defeat
ed, amongst which were the Tillman
bill, designed to prohibit contributions
by corporations to campaign corruption
funds; the eight.hour bills the child
labor bill the bill to reduce the Philip
pine tariff; bills to revise the tariff,
especially the bill torednce tariff rates
which exceed 100 per cent; the Tillman
resolution fQr the investigation Of nation
al banks in respect TO excessive loans to
favored perssss; the La Toilette reaola.
ton for Investigation OF the ,elatioiis
between the railroads and the grain
elevator corporations; and the Joint
resolution TO amerd the constitution so
as to provide for the election of United
States senators by direct vote of the peo.
pie, besides many other wise laws that
were introduced but not reported by the
committees controlled by the dominant
party.
The republicans passed the law to in
crease the Presidents compensation on
the pretense of paying the travelling ex.
penses of himself and friends; the bill
deciding that the Panama Canal shall
be OF the lock type, against the advice OF
the most competent hydraulic engineers a;
the Aldrich resolution directing the pur-
chase of canal supplies from the protect

from other bidders. The republican sins
OF omission have only been exceeded by
their sins OF commission during the past
session OF congress, and all their good
acts have been of dem ocratic origin.

BUSY BURGLARS,
Industrious Burglars Take Great

The bunch OF burglars who are lust
now giving the Aberdeen police force the
horse laugh, are much more Industrious
than successful in financial sense.
They make full time every mig, t, vet
barely make living expenses. 1t is said
they contemplate asking for appointment
as special police, to catch the burglars,
and theii employment might be wise, as
it would at least stop the burgIaries.
Thursday night the gang entered five
places. At the Hunt & Haynes grocery
they forced open the back door, and got
away with box OF cigars. They entered
the furniture store of the J. J. Kaufman
Co., where they got nothing. The door
OF the furnace room in the Union block
was forced open, evidently under the
impression that it led to the Office of the
Northern Pacific Express Co. and this
also was waste of time and labor.
An entrance was gained through a rear
window to the meat market of Karshner
Bros, where ansempty cash register was
all they found. A broken light OF glass
in the back door OF White & Davidson's s
tea store, allowed the industrious gentry
access to this establishment, where they
found about fifty cents in pennies, and
INDUCED in lunch.

CONCORD P%RESPYTERY.

Affairs are in Good Shape.

Thursday, the 18th, at 7:30 p. m.
After a sermon from Rev. DR..
Wharey, retiring moderator, Rev.
J. 81. Grey, of Salisbury, was
elected moderator. Rev. G. M.
Richards recording clerk and
Elder Frank Brown, of Salisbury,
reading clerk.
The attendance was large and
the docket full, though mainly
with the routine work of the
spring session.
The home mission committee,
whose report is always of vital in
terest, had been on the ground a
day i'll advance and had it's work
we'll in hand. The report was
most encouraging. Practically
all the churches have pastors or
supplies. All workers r paid in
full with a small balance in the
treasury, one new church has been
organized since the fall meeting,
many doors are opened for new
work, and the committee was en-
couraged to enlarge it's work.
A commission was appointed to
install Rev. J. Fl. Grey, the sue
cessor of the late DR.. Dumple at
Salisbury, and Mr.. Grey was ap-
pointed to fill the unexpired terms
of DR.. Rumple on the boards of
trustees cf Davidson and States
vile colleges.
Calls we're presented from Fifth
Greek and Bethesda churches for
the pastoral services of Licentate

centate J. M. Gibbs, six months
ago called to the passionate of
Bethany, were examined for ordi-
nation and both will likely be in
