Foreign Ships.
Norfolk Va, Ledger Dispatch.

NOr1O1k Va, Ledger Dispatch.
The British steamer Hillbrook arriv-
ed here yesterday from New York and
will load a cargo of coal here for de-
livery to b United States government
at Manila, Philippines. Another British
steamer will follow her shortly.
After April IL, 1909, it will be I'M
lawful for any vessel, except she be of
American registery, to carry either
cargo or passengers from United States
ports to the Philippines. Supplies for
our array or navy, however, are~except-
ed.
The penalty for a foreign vessel which
carries a passenger from the United
States to the Philippine Islands, is to
be a fine of 5000, and cargo so carried
will be subject to forfeiture.
This is in conformity with the law
enacted by the Congress on April 3Oth,
1906, House Resolution 19O25, Chapter
2071. Foreign vessels may, however,
lawfully carry supplies for our army
and navy under the act referred to.
1t appears that we shall either have
to repeal thatlaw or establish lines OF
steamers between this country and the
Philippines before April 18th, 1909, OF
else the islands will be cut Off from
communication with us by vessel.
/ It is assumed that the enactment o.
the law was for the purpose of assisting
in the upbuilding of the merchan
marine of this country, and the mea'
sure is in the interest of those seek.
ing to have American mail-carryine
steamers paid a subsidy by the genera
government.

Editor ARGUS:

Editor ARGUS:
The school at Rosewood Academy has
shown an increase in both enrolment
and average attendance since the. holi-
days.
There has been no tagging of interest
in the work of the literary society. The
spirit of friendly rivalry between the
two divisions is doing much to stimu-
late the members to put forth their best
efforts. Chairs have been ordered to
seat the society hall. This will finish
seating the entire building.
School and community will feel
keenly the loss met in the death of our
neighbor, friend and benefactor, Mr..
III. T. Jones. Mr.. Jones was chairman
of the board of trustees, and was ever
ready to assist in the good work of ed
ucation.
A gold medal is to be given this year
by J. NJ. Mitchell for efficient work in
society and school. 1t is not going to
be a case of 1.-THE longest poll knocks

The ONLY REMEDY.

The bill passed by Congress prohib-
iting national banks or any other cor
poration organized under federal law
from contributing to campaign funds is
but a farce even when it is supple
mented by state laws forbiding state
corporations to do likewise. 1t will
stop no corporation from making con-
tributions Indirectly though an indi-
vidual. The collections in Wall street
will not be lessened by it. They will
go on precisely as they have gone on,
simply because the republican party
will not pass a publicity bill.
Publicity of campaign lists is the
only remedy that touches Or will cure
the great evil CT piling up corruption
funds. 1t is the only way in which the
buying Of elections can be stopped.
When lists are published it will be i'm
possible to disguise the real source Of
contributions. The democrats favor a
publicity law, because they desire to
see campaign funds from Wall street
cut DOWN. if not wholly eliminated. The
republicans, on the other hand, do not
propose to pass a publicity bill because
they intend to roll up in 1908 another
slush fund-one that will equal hat of
1904, if not those of 1896 and 1900. AL
were up in the millions. All were con-
trolling. w. J. Bryan was beaten by a
slush fund, even if Judge Parker was
not.
Chairman Taggart offers to publish
the campaign lists of 1904, if Chairman
Cortelyou and Collector Bliss will do
. likewise. Chairman Griggs, who had
charge of the congressional elections
of 1906, favors the publicity idea, al
though he had last year no very large
contributions, not over hiatt a dozen in
excess of $500, and by far the greater
number less than $780," $50 far as
KNOW he adds, "or can ascertain, nc
corporations were contributors to oul
fund.-" But not a word comes from the
other side. The republicans have NJ
intention of passing a publicity bill
They do not for obvious reasons desir,
publicity of campaign subscriptions
They will go on rolling up corruption
funds, and the vile work will not b.
stopped until public sentiment compel
Congress to pass a publicity bill.

0kidhOmd'S Constitution.

In the Oklahoma constitutional con-
vention sit SO democrats, II republicans
and L independent. The democrats in
Oklahoma are advanced democrats, and
they have imbedded in the instrument
they are writing the primary system,
the popular selection of United States
senators, and a railway commission
authorized to make state freight rates.
No serious differences had arisen in the
convention until it took up the liquor
question. This question splits the
democrats in the convention, and it is
thought the entire subject will be sub
mitted to the people for a final decision.
"Wet'' or Dry is a vital subject in
the new state,
1t has been suggested that President
Roosevelt may refuse to accept the new
constitution, but such a course on his
part is scarcely probable. It would be
too high-handed to suit him even in his
most strenuous moments. Oklahoma
is entitled to a constitution of its own
making free from dictation. IT it be
all decency be asked.
There is no doubt but that the new
constitution will be an up-to-date in.
strument, fully abreast, if not a little
| ahead, OF the trend ofthe times. About
| one-third OF the delegates in the con.
vention now sitting at Guthrie wer.
born in the south, and the remainde
were either born in the north or in tn,
bounds of the new state. All agree
that the convention consists of aler
men who are full of faith and hope il
the home land and the home PEG
iple.

WHITTIER ARE We DRIFTING.

Yesterday we had something to say
entirely different gist to what we now
have to say. Z
The Indiana legislature is about to
pass a bill to tax bachelors SIS a year
$3.50 when between 80 and 40, and $40
when over 40. The proceeds are to go
to the public schools. The census shows
there are 1O2, 929 bachelors in that state
and the tax will, it is estimated, turn
over to the public schools $771, 967
yearly.
AS a revenue m%easu the bill is be-
yond criticism. It will fall upon those
who have light burdens, and who can,
therefore, readily pay it. It will be
strange indeed if the Indiana bill is
| not duplicated widely in other states
possibly in North Carolina, where il
| would swell the school funds to the ex.
tent of many thousands of dollars {
year.
AS a social incentive, too, it is MOI
to be despised. The pace of the bach.
| elor needs to be quickened, and moth.
ing will do it so ~persuasively and per
| suadingly as a good round tax. Tht
proposed Indiana tax just about fills
| the bill, and it is to be hoped that il
will work well in practice until it be-
comes a fixed and permanent feature

Skagway, May S--The Yukon is open at Hootalinqua. Word was re- ceiyed at the White Pass Skagway offices yesterday that the ice went out Of the river at the mouth of the Hootalinqua that morning. The ice remains nrm at Whitehorse-though it is from a week to 10 days later that it usually breaks there There is no sign of break at any other point on -the Yukon, though the temperature is high. The ice is thicker in the Yukon and the lakes this year than usual. and that has lead to the conten- tion on the part of many observers that it will not break as early as usual. Others who are equally well informed, say the thickness of the ice has little or nothing to do with the breakup. They say that the ice gives way to rising water more than to the effects Of warm weather. They con- tend that the breakup depends upon melting snow on the hills and in the valleys. which fill the streams and float the ice.
