LONGEST MESSAGE OF ALL.
President to Send Enormous State Pa.
per to Conoress.

per to Congress.
Washington, Sept. 11.-When Presi-
dent Roosevelt returns to Washington
on September 25 he will practically
have concluded the writing of his mes
sage to the first session of the Sixtieth
congress.
The message is to be the longest
that has ever been sent to congress. 1t
will be more lengthy than that which
he sent to congress winter before last,
which of itself established a new rec
ord in the presidential message line
That was the output in which railroad
rate legislation was the overwhelming
feature.
Mr. Roosevelts word to congress in
Dec ember will also be notable in the
manner in which it will deal with
questions now before the public or in
which he hopes to make the public
take an interest 1t is his intention to
MAKE it virtually a statement of the
issues upon which the republican party
viii make it's fight in the presidential
contest of 1908.

bee Bridqe Will Be Completed.

Philadelphia. Sept. IL, - David
Reeves president of the Phoenix
Bridge Company said yesterday that
altho the inquiry into the concerns
loss as result of the Quebec canti-
lever bridge had not been completed.
he did not believe that the loss would
be one-fourth as large as was at first
supposed. Other officials of the bridge
company declared that the work of
rebuilding the bridge would be con-
tinued if the Canadian government
did not object.
Several weeks must elapse before
any conclusion as to the cause of the
accident can be reached" said one Of
them. However I can say that it
will take two years of hard work to
reach the stage of completion at which
we stood when the accident occurred.

Paris, Sept. 1.-THE wording Of
Germany's formal note of acceptance,
in the matter Of the proposed Franco
Spanish military policing of Moroc-
can ports as a substitute for the Moor
ish police prescribed in the Algeciras
agreement calls forth varying and
some caustic comment from the
French press.
The semi official Temps consid-
ers the reply courteous and satisfac-
tory even If it does contain some re-
servation. After pointing out that
Germany expresses the desire that the.
grave damages resulting to the COM
merce of Casablanca should not occur
at other points, the Temps remarks:
IF this is a reproach intended for
us 1t is understood. The people who
complain Of the bonbar1ment would
have run a great risk of losing even
the possibility of complaining If our
cannon had not protected them"
The Temps believes that enough

Schedules in the West.


Chicago, Sept. 11.-Several confer

the Northwestern railroads, the result
Of which makes 1t almost certain that
there will soon be another lengthening
of the time of the fast mail trains be-
tween Chicago, Omaha and the west.
The rumor that q material increase
in the running time between the two
cities is in contemplation is strength
ened by the fact that the officials of
one of these roads have asked the Off
cials of the Rock Island if the latter
company would put new mail train
in service If the time Of existing mail
trains was heightened.
1t is understood that the Rock Island
officials stated that they had had
enough of trying to give the west
better mail service and that they did
not purpose spending another $4,000
in trying to wrest mail contracts from
the grasp of the Burlington. In fact,
the Rock Island officials do not care
whether Omaha ever gets any mail, SO
far as the government side of The con-
troversy is concerned.

time, are up in arms over the present

Saturday, June 20, 1907.

A primary election is to beheld in the
county of Accomac to-day to nominate
candidates for the Legislature, county
and district offices. The advices are
that full vote may be expected and
this is as it should be. Every citizen
ought to vote and to endeavor to dis
charge that duty so inteligently that
the vote cast by him will be in the best
interest of the people of the county and
the State. 1t is our duty to take an in
terest in every election and to vote even
if all the candidates are so acceptable
to us, that it is hard to decide between
them. In the election of to-day many
of the opposing candidates are qualified
to fill the offices to which they aspire
but that does not excuse us. One OF
them is preferred by us and he is emit
tied to our vote and should have it. But
if we cannot make a choice between
some of them let us at least go to the
polls and vote for others who, we believe
are best qualified to serve US. Our in
terests, if no higher motive, demand
that much of us.
