sociation is locally responsible for this
as she has created widespread enthusi-

pected to carry off number of prizes.
Among the local people who sent pic
lures are ]. E. Bundy. F. J. Girardin.

Troops Guarding Lines Against STRIKERS
at Camp Perry. OHIO.

CAMP PERRY, Ohio. Aug 25.-Strilung
telegraphers have interfered with Uncle
Sam and AZ result soldiers are pa:rolling
the telegraph line between Camp Perry and
La Carne, a distance Of three miles
Strikers or their sympathizers COM
pletely destroyed communication between
Camp Perry and the outside world afte r
10 O'Clock Monday night. On Monday
an operator by the name Of Weikirett
came to Camp Perry to assist Operator
A. G. Paine. Weikirett disappeared on
Tuesday and the new man at La Carne
pleaded ignorance OF the working Of the
switchboard in his Office by which camp
wires are connected with the Sandusky
Toledo and Cleveland wires.
The trouble began about $50 Monday
night when an operator broke in on the
Camp Perry operators and called them
"scaba." From that hour there was con-
stant breaking and Interruptions until the
camp operators were forced to close up
at midnight with Thousands OF words still
unsent. much of which was Government
matter from United States and National
Guard officers to their superiors.
Operator Paine repeatedly told the new
man at La Carne by wire to give him better
connections The result only mixed up the
connections until the circuits were com
pletely destroyed and the tickers at camp
were silent.
On Tuesday afternoon detachment of
signal corps men sent over the line between
Camp Perry and La Carne found loop of

WAY ga ON WyTH CANAL WORK.
Chairman Tawncy Advises war Department
to let Col. GOethals 90 Ahead

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2I.-Representative
Tawney. chairman of the House COMMITTEES
on Appropriations. has written to acting
Secretary OF War Oliver explaining the
intent of Congress in the matter Of making
appropriations for the Panama Canal work
and pointing ont that the provision OF law
making appropriations to be expended
during certain periods did not apply to the
canal appropriation for the present fiscal
year,
The reason for this. he says. is that the
appropriation is less than the limit Of cost
Of the canal Therefore he contends that
Col. Goethals. the chairman of the COM
mission. is warranted in continuing the
work by reason of which deficit OF 81, ,0O0, 900
will be created
Mr. Tawney points out the exceptions
under which the canal appropriation falls
and concludes:
Goethals be advised II you have not already
done SO. to continue the work as he has
been doing, regardless of any apportion-
ment that has been made of the appropria-
tions for canal expenditures.
The appropriation for labor and equip
nent will certainly be adequate to meet
the requirements OF the work as he desires
to carry IL on until Congress cOnvenes next
December. He can then submit with his
estimates the additional amount necessary
10 continue the work for the remainder Of
this fiscal year and there will be no question
about Congress making the additional
appropriation, nor will there be any question
whatever of anv one having violated the
statutes. for even layman with practical
common sense can see upon careful reading
of the section that IL does not apply to ap-
preparations of this kind"

ATTACKS CAMP MEETING.
ocean Grove Minister DenOunces the Meth
Osis Of the Association There.

OCEAN GROVE. y J Aug 27-The Rev
J. |. Boswell to-day published a etter in
which he gives the Ocean Grove Camp
Meeting Association some hard knocks
Or. Boswell is a property owner and he
complains that the association ran things
pretty much their own way and without
reference to the thousand lot owners Of
Ocean Grove. who are compelled to submit
TO any kind of government that the twenty
six members Of the association may find il
convenient to impose upon them.
DR. Boswell says the property owners
have been dumb for thrty-seven years
and il is about time they took a hand in
the game Governed by an oligarchy,"
he says, we have no right to show public
spirit Ocean Grove is the most un-Ameri-
can town in the American republic since
~ jah Dowies Zion City fell in ruins. Eagle
Of American Liberty, in all your circling
flight through the wide heavens, fly not
over our sacred sands and perch not on
yonCler fiagpole This in no place for thee,
sweet Bird fly away"
Thereupon DR.. Boswell petitions that the
association print in their next report a copy
of the charter and bylaws. that they pub
lish a detailed financial statement every
year, that they amend the charter so that
a thousand property owners may have
representation in the body and that they
hold open meetings.
Ocean Grove is aroused over the attack
and it is probable that a meeting of the
property holders will he held in a few days.

The Democratic executive committee in

consider the communication recently sent
to Senator p. II. McCaren by the Kings
County Democratic Party" which has
been fighting his leadership for three years,
demanding an equal division Of the in
spectors of election so as to avoid another
clash at the primaries. 1t was alleged
by John Ii. Delaney. Frank W. Foley and
Edward Gilmartn. the trainers OF the COM
munication. that the official Democratic
organization had only maintained its SUI
premacy by shameful frauds" at the
primaries, and the defeat of its candidates
Ia the coming elections was predicted unless
existing conditions were changed,
Senator McCarren presided at the meet
ing last night, and when the communica-
tion was read he asked for an expression
OF opinion on the question. Col. James
ID. Bell, chairman OF the county committee.
James Kane, Thomas X. Farrell, John NJ
Gray James p. Sinnott and several other
members of the committee said they re-
garded such a demand al unreasonable.
II was decided by a unanimous vote to
reject the proposal for division Of the
election inspectors, and then the question Of
appointing a committee to meet the COM
mittee Of the rival organization "for a
further discussion and settlement Of the
question was taken up.
IL was resolved to appoint a committee
of three to confer with the similar com
mttee Of the Kings county party within
a few days, and Senator McCarren. Thomas

trict and James p. Sinnott of the Twenty

STATE RIGHTS NOT ATTACKED.
Judge Pritchard Says North Carolina Has
No PecuniAry Interest in Rate Case.

AsHEvILLE. N. c.. Aug. e7.-Upholding
the jurisdiction Of the United States Circuit
Court. Judge Pritchard. In an opinion an
nounced to-day. declares that the is
suance Of injunctions against officers OF
the Southern Railway was within the
courts rights and that the suit was not
one against the State within the meaning
OF the Eleventh Amendment to the Federal
Constitution. The amendments referred
to hold that the judicial power OF the United
States shall not extend 20 any suit against
a State brought by citizens or another
State.
10 his opinion Judge Pritchard says
that an act to deprive Citizen Of his rights
under the Federal Constitution cannot be
framed by IA State. The Corporation Com
mission is still charged with making rates.
the decision holds. and the only limitation
upon its power is that Il shall not make II
maximum rate in North Carolina in ex-
cess OF ~ cents a mile.
Judge Pritchard holds that all laws in
existence at the time Of the passage OF the
control Of railroads are to be- construed
in connection with the rate act
In his opinion Judge Pritohard says:
at is inoonceivable that Circuit Court
Of the United States in the exercise OF its
jurisdiction should be powerless TO afford
a remedy TO one who seeks TO assert a right
which is guaranteed by the Constitution
Of the United States.
This is in no sense a suit against the
State. nor can It be oontended that the
State is In any wise a party iD interest, in
so far as the merits OF the contr oversy
are concerned.
at cannot be reasonably insisted that this
is suit to prevent the State from enforc-
ing any right which it possesses, nor can
it be said TO be a suit TO compel the per-
formance OF an obligation Of the State.
Nor does II In any wise involve a matter
in which the State has pecuniary interest;
the parties In interest being complainant
on the one eide and the travelling public on
the other.
Therefore, the questions presented are
not such as TO warrant the assumption
that this court is without jurisdiction, and
a careful study Of the circumstances at
tending the adoption Of the Eleventh Amend
ment, as well as the end to be OBJ
tanned by the adoption Of the same, shows
conclusively that those who were respon-
sible for it's adoption never dreamed that
1t could be used as a means of deprivlng
an American citizen OF a substantial right
conferred upon him by the Constitution of
the United States"
