TRINEs HAVE MADE CON.
VERTS.

WASHINGTON, July 4, 19o6.-The
Democratic congressional committee shas
entered seriously upon the preliminary
work Of the campaign for control Of lie
next house of representatives.
While Chairman Griggs is looking
around for the always necessary cam
paign funrs, other officers of the commit
tee are sending letters to every district
in the country now represented by
Republican in which there is a chance,
no matter now remote, of electins
Democrat next fall
These letters are going to the chairmen
of the congressional district comm:ttees,
and also to the chairmen of State COM
mittees. Complete data are desired
and as soon as received the congressional
committee will enter upon the heavy
work of the campaign.
Chairman Griggs believes the Dem
ocrats will carry several districts in
Ohio now represented by Republicans, to
wit, the Fifth, Thirteenth and Seven
teenth districts, which are normally
Democratic; the Twelfth, which is al
ways more or less uncertain, and the
Sixth, where the Republican factions are
having a serious fight. He believes also
that the Democratic chances of redeem
ing the Ninth Kentucky district, now
represented by Republican, are splen-
did.
However the chairman is making ne
prophecies at this time. He believes
though, tnat CONDITIONS are more t'1ssr cr-
dinarily favorabl for heavy Democratic
gains all over the country, and thinks
the chances of Democratic coneRe3.of the
next house are better than they have
been in many years. -

the Kaiser's Prize With a
Perfect Score
SIX CLUBS COMPETED
THIS YEARS FEST SAID TO BE
THE MOST SUCCESSFUL IN
THE sAENGERBUND's EXIs-
TENCE
Especial to "The Jersey City News.")

Special to .'The Jersey City News,D
NEWARK, July 5, 1906.-The Saen-
gerfest came to close last night. All
the FIVE thousand singers and ten times
that number Of other participants agreed
with President Carl Lentz that in all
respects it was the most successful feast
in more than half century of the Saen-
gerbunds existence.
The greatest interest was manifested
in the outcome of the grand contest for
the $4,000 prize given to the Saenger-
bund by Emperor William of Germany.
1t was competed for by six of the
strongest singing organizations in the
United States and the result was a
triumph for the G. V. Concordia of
Wilkes-Barre, Pa, over the Junger
Maennerchor. of Philadelphia; the
Franz Schubert Maennerchor, the
Kreutzen Quartet Club, of Manhattan,
and the Arion and Gernania, of New
ark.
In order to defeat the crack Phila-
delphia organization it was necessary
for Concordia to attain absolute per-
fection, and this, in the opinion of the
five official judges, they did, The high
est number of points obtainable was
12O. and the judges agreed that the
Wilkes-Barre organization was entitled
to every point The maorjity of the
five thousand unofficial listeners at the
contest yesterday morning concurred IN
the decision of the judges. The singing
of the prize song. "Hans und Crete"
by the winning group is said to have
never been equalled in poitn of merit at
national saengerfest. 1t was stated
! by Bund President Lentz, in announcing
the result, that it was the first time in
the history of the Northeastern Saenger-
bund that perfection had been attained
by any organization in any class.
The victory of Concordia was a hard
blow to the Junger Maennerchoir. The
Philadelphians were confident they
would win and it only NEEDED victory
| now to give them full ownership of the
priced trophy they having already won
it once and tied with the Brooklyn
| Arions another time. The Junger Maen-
nerchoir scored lie points. They lost
one on .'intonation" and three on gen
eral impression" Only one point be-
hind the Philadelphians was the Franz
| Schubert Maennerchoir of New York.
| Arion and Germania, of Newark, were
fourth and fifth, with 10 and 10S points
respectively while the Kreutzer Quar-
tette Club. of New York, trailed with
1O7 points.
Philadelphia partially redeemed her.
self by landing first place in the contest
for first-class city federations for the
bronze bust of Haydn. The Unitel
singers, of Quakertown. beat those of
Brooklyn, the points being 113 to Ill.
New York was placed third and Balti-
more fourth in this competition.
The second class federation prize, a
silver loving cup, was won by the
United Singers of Long Island City with
| 116 points. The United Singers of
Hudson County, n. j., won second place.
| with 10 points.

A Startling Condition.

The publication Of the personal prop
erty return made 10y Marshall Field
trustees calls attention in startling
manner to curious situation. 1t is
stated that his trustees report that the
estate has SIT, 500. 900 in cash, securities
and other personal property subject to
taxation. That is to say, it has this
great sum in addition to its stocks in
Illinois corporations, including the cor
poration known as Marshall Field & Co.
The TACT is, that he was never assessed
at more than 81, 500, 600 for personal
property. 1t is true, also, in spite of this
low assessment and because of his large
holdings of real estate, that be paid
taxes on more estate, real and personal.
than any other man in the city.
He must have failed to pay taxes,
however, ON at least $t5, 600, 900 in each
of the last ten years. At the usual rate
of taxation he failed to pay $50, 600 a
year, or in ten years 81, 5000

for fear Of business consequences. he

was that the girls of the MONDAY Rest

Retain Coal and on Lands.

John Callan O'Laughlin, in his Wash
ington dispatch to The Chicago Tribune,
SAYS that as a result of Senator LaFol-
lette's agitation in the senate, Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Secretary Hitch
cock are seeking authority from con-
gress to permit any further disposal of
coal or oil lands belonging to the govern
ment, to protect the people from the
consequences of another coal strike.
As result of the conference between
the officials and Senator Spooner the
latter will introduce joint resolution
in the senate this week authorizing the
president to make an examination of all
public lands with view of establishing
which have coal, oil or other building
materials thereon, and to withdraw
from settlement such as possess these
resources.
The government is powerless under
present conditions to interfere in a coal
strike and is impotent to arrest the
monopoistic policy Of the Standard Oil
Co. In the course of debates the past
winter Senator LaFollette urged vigor-
ously greater government control of
coal oil and mineral lands. His sugges-
ton that not more than 1900 acres be
sold TO one purchaser was turned down
by the senate.
1t has ibeen learned that the presi-
dents reference to coal lands was in
direct consequence of Senator La Foil
cites clear presentation of this subject,
which not only attracted the attention
of President Roosevelt, but supplied
him with mass of statistics and other
valuable information.
In his special message the president
asserted: 1.-The time has come when
no oil or coal lands held by the govern
ment, either within the public domain
proper or in territory owned by the In
dian tribes. should be alienated. The
| fee to such lands should be kept in the
United States government, whether or
not the profits arising from it arc to be
given to any Indian tribe, and the lands
should be leased only on such terms and
for such periods as will enable the gov
eminent to keep entire control thereof. y

SENATOR Cullom of Hin o's, says that
Senator LaFolette is the leader of the
fight for efficient rate regulation in this
country.
''This rate bill as passed by the sem
ate is a step in the direction of regula-
ton of railroads but it will not satisfy
the public demand. The next demand
will be for an appraisal of the railroads.
That demand will have to be met, and
it will not be long before it will be com
piled with by the enactment of law for
such valuation. In this new phase it is
plain Senator laFollette is destined to
be the leader Of public opinion. He was
the man who touched the vital spot by
demanding that the rate law provide
for valuation of railway properties.
All who studied the problem would
agree that there was no scientific basis
on which to make rates, and would be
none until an appraisal of railroad prop
critics had been made. This is the issue
that will come next.
