HISTORIC JAMESTOWN.

A number of congressman and
Washington correspondents recently
visited the points Of interest from the
jamestown Exposition grounds TO the
historic Jamestown island. In the
party was Jewell H Aubree. a we'll
known Washington correspondent OF
the St. Louis Globe Democrat. who
says of the interesting scenes on the
trip:

mind of American youth more than
any burning of a midnight dip over
tons of historical lore. The location
of the exposition site itself is aJnira-

in easy reach and communication with
far-famed resorts .of the Atlantic

POLITICAL CAMPAIGN EXPENSES.

In the discussion of the bill now
pending in congress for requiring that
all contributions 10 political commit
tees shall be reported TO the clerk Of
the house of representatives. some
very interesting statistical matter was
recently brought out. II was shown
chat from the very beginning of its
reer the republican party has re-
lied largely on the use of money in
elections, and that in 1896 its national
campaign fund amounted 10 sixteen
million Ave hundred thousand dollars.
while that of the democrats reached
only four hundred and twenty five
thousand. Strong efforts have been
made to discover how much money
Mr. Bliss and Mr.. Cortleyou received
in 1904; but though 1t has been proven
that they and Mr.. Babcock got enor-
nous sums from the life insurance
companies. and has been charged. and
not denied, that they also received
large sums from the trusts and the
railroads, IL has been impossible 10

pended by the party OF corruption

Many of these contributions were
taken from trusts funds by men like
Perkins. McCurdy Mccall and Hyde;
and District Attorney Jerome, OF New
Dirk. who has had Perkins arrested on
the charge Of larceny. said that IL
Perkins is guilty. then it follows that
Bliss, the treasurer, and Cortleyou, the
chairman OF the republican national
committee are guilty Of receiving
stolen goods knowing them to be

WHAT LIAR MEANS
IN sAiLEY'S STATE.

A Houston. Texas correspondent OF
the New York World says:
In Texas the epithet liar is an in
vitation for trouble When used by
one southern gentleman TO another de-
liberately il is with the understanding
that il is a direct thrust at his man
hood and calls for fight or a foot
race. To overlook the epithet indi-
Gates either guilt or cowardice and
with silent acceptance of either all
right to be called a gentleman is for
feited An immediate apology is de-
manded. otherwise the resort is to pis-
tolls, either upon the spot, if both hap
pen TO be armed. or afterwards. FIRE.
quently apologies are forced ar a re-
volvers point.
So general is the understanding and
so positive is the sentiment that the
epithet is seldom used except with the
deliberate purpose of provoking troub-
lie or in answer to a positive lie mali
cfously uttered. AS a matter of course,
such episodes are seldom made public.
more especially when they occur be-
tween prominent men.
The exception in this instance proves
the rule. No story OF public life in
Texas is more widely known than is
the event in which President Sam
Houston figured. To this day men
speak of il in wonder.
During the days when Houston was
the chief executive of the Republic of
Texas, politics were at white heat
Every man was interested and every
man was prepared to back UP his as
sertions by force of arms.
One day while on his way to the
executive mansion President Houston
was accOsted by a bitter enemy. who
began heaping abuse upon him, Fin
ally the man called the president a
malicious liar"
Your saying so does not prove it."
was all the notice Sam Houston paid
to this challenge for blood. He walked
away and left his would be antagonist
raging mad.
The episode has been handed down
in Texas history as remarkable. Under
few such circumstances would violence
have been averted.
The innocence of Sam Houston in
the charge preferred is said To have
been proven and now that the gerat-
ness of the "Liberator of Texas" is
recognized in the country he once
governed. his refusal TO fight is ac-
cepted as proof of his self-control and
his superiority over not alone his ac-
cuser but over the general run of
men.
In Texas Senator Bailey is not plac
ed upon the plane of man who ac-
cused President Houston. He is ac-
cepted as a man of honor and when he
applies the epithet of liar" those who
know him believe that he does so with
elaboration and forethought. with the
knowledge that in the Texas code it is
a mortal insult and that its silent ac-
ceptance will be regarded by his con-
stituents as indicating the guilt of the
man he accuses.

Liar" Is the First Blow in Georgia.


In Georgia the 'lie direct" is con-
sidered an affront involving the hon.
or OF a gentleman. In the old duelling
days many notable encounters result
ed from the use Of this epithet. Il
is generally considered that man
who will take the lie will not re-
sent any other insult. Only recently
the use of this epithet produced such
strained relations between Col. John
Temple Graves and Col. JAmes W.
English. jr.. chief Of the governors
staff. that only the utmost efforts of
friends prevented a duel.
Though not provided by law, ii is
the general couse of procedure in court
to regard the lie" as the first blow.
This has been the turning point on
which many men accused of murder
have got off with light sentences
