The farmers of our neighbor-
ing county, Williamsburg, have
asked the legislature to repeal
the lien law, without suggesting
anything to take it's place. This
cry against the lien law. and
urging it's repeal is stronger
now than ever before. We should
like for those making this de-
mand to point out the relief the
repeal Of the lien law will give
US. In our opinion it will be dis
appointing to those who think
the repeal will help labor con-
ditions, and if it is not to help
us get more and a better class
of labor, labor that we can
more easily, cheaply control, it
will do no good. If by repeating
the lein law the laboring class is
forced to seek wages it strikes
US they will go where they can
get the most pay, this is a
natural conclusion. The negro
who merits credit by his debt
paying past, will continue to get
credit in the future, and the
negro who has not made a rep
utation for paying his debts,
will. be unable to set credit, and
must become a wage-earner.
VIII he work on the farm at
wages the farmer can afford to
pay or will he pull out for the
saw mills and turpentine camps
where wages are higher? The
question is, can our farmers
hold the labor in competition
with the wages paid in other
employmentss
The Williamsburg farmers
also urge the legislature to de-
wise means to require cotton to
be packed in cotton baeging.
Their appeal for the repeal Of
the lien law is a matter for the
general assembly, because it
refers to a Statute which makes
the lien system valid. but they
might as well ask the Legislature
to require every citizen to drink
corn whiskey as to ask for cot
ton bagging for cotton. The cot
ton association should take up
this cotton bagging matter, but
if did how long would they get
the farmer to stick to it? Only

ADRIF ON A RAFT.

Providence, r. l., Feb. 13.-The
steamer Gluckey, bearing Is survivors
and 40 bodies reached here this even
ing. The survivors were taken to hos
pitfalls while the dead were placed in
the morgue The physicians after ex-
amining the bodies said that in num-
erous instances death resulted from
the cold rather than from drowning.
Unnatural conditions showed the effect
of the cold. When one body of a wO-
man was placed on a slab. the head
rested on it and the hair frozen solid,
extended to the floor.
The following story is told by Harry
Feldman of New York, who, with his
wife. was saved. After dressing Field

so rapidly it seemed they would be lost.

and ripped off a huge piece of the su-
perstructure on which they and other
persons were standing. As the wreck
age stopped off into the sea many pas
sengers either fell back into the saloon
or down into the water. After the
wreckage which was in effect an i'm
mense raft, had been away from the
ship few moments, Feldman counted
his companions. There were 80 on
board but they were so badly crowd
ed that one by one they dropped into
the sea. Some, craZed by the cold,
jumped and were drowned. Others sit
ting near the edge were swept away,
and others frozen to death dropped into
the water. One hour after the raft had
been swept from the steamer but Is
persons were on it and Of these only
eight were alive.

the Japanese make faster progress in
the oriental schools than they do in
white schools and that in the mixed
schools the japanese only retard the
white children.
Another conference will be held at
the White House on Friday. In the
meantime the president hopes to be
able to assure the mayor and his as
sociates that the Migration bill in
cluding the exclusion amendment will
be passed at this session of congress.
Mr.. Root will ascertain the Japanese
attitude on Schmitz proposition for
separate schools and the mayors assur-
ance that the japanese are not to be
Disseminated against but will have
equal educational advantages with
white children.
If the proposition does not meet with
Aoki's views the school board will
abolish the oriental schools. All that
may prevent an amicable settlement OF
.he whole question on Friday will be
the unwillingness of congress to pass
the immigration bill. A provision in
the immigration bill conference report

Washington. Feb. 13.-The Japanese
school controversy is settled so far as
President Roosevelt. Mayor Schmitz
and the members Of the San Francisco
school board are concerned. An AMIGA

Secretary Root excluding foreigners

unless the japanese government agrees
to separate schools which provide equal
facilities for japanese children.
Mayor Schmitz and his associates

assured Mr.. Roosevelt that the amend

Root participated in the conference and
made a report on his negotiations with

UqIy Stories of the LarCh.
mont Survivors
Captain McVey Roughly
Criticized--It is Said Life
boats Were Not In Order.

Providence. r. ]. Feb. 13.-Terrible
tales of suffering were brought here
tonight by some Of the survivors from
the Larchmont disaster and some as
sent that in the hour of peril helpless
women were thrust aside by men who
cared only for their own safety. The
charge OF cowardice was made by Fred
Heirgesell, aged IS, of Brooklyn, n. Y.
He said not only were the women left
to their fate, but that Capt. McVey
left the sinking ship in the very frs
life boat: that some of the ships crew
filled the boats to the exclusion of the
passengers and that at least one boat
was without oars when put over the
side.
Louis Mcfarland. a colored waiter
on the Larchmont, said that when he
reached the captains boat he found
McVey there. The captain ordered
that the boat be swung out, calling tC
the passengers at the same time 10
step in. The passengers. Mcfarland
said, were afraid to do so and as the
ship was going down. McVey ordered
the boat lowered. When it reached the
water the rope fastened to a ring bolt
and attached to the davits above, be-
came caught. and those in the boat
were in danger of being dragged down
by the steamer. when the boatswain
Andrew Tobsen, who was on the deck
saved their lives by cutting the rope
Heirgesell's statement was not con-
firmed by any other survivor but ht
insists he is right.
President Dunbagh said tonight
'The schooner was responsible for th'
collision. In view Of the horrible con
dition which prevailed Immediately af
ter the accident am satisfied that th'
men did ali in their power TO meet tn
situation as conscientiously as posi-
BILE. II appears from my investigation
that the schooner luffed right into tn
Larchmount and caused the acciden
which resulted in such loss of life.
Careful figures early today show 1S
lives lost. 1t is known there were no
less than I57 on board. Only nineteei
survived. Seventy-one bodies have
been recovered. one hundred are still

THE SANTA FE TAX MEMORIAL.
The Document Was Given Short shrift
in the Council.

When the house memorial praying
congress to cancel an understanding
with the Santa Fe Pacific railroad
whereby the road was to pay a flat tax
of s175 a mile to this territory. in or
der that the road might be put on the
same basis as other roads. reached the
council il was quickly disposed of.
This memorial was also a product OF
Mr.. Bells. The opposition TO the mem
orial came from the councilmen from
the northern counties. the ones most
directly interested in the matter and
who hinted that the members from
Maricopa and the south were tres
passing on forbidden ground.
They said that there was no wish
anywhere in the counties traversed BY
the Santa Fe Pacific that the present
arrangement with the road should be
disturbed.
Judge Blakeley Of Mohave said that
all this mad been gone over before. He
gave q brief history of the roads re-
lation to the territory with respect to
taxes. Under an act Of congress the
Atlantic and Pacific had no taxes to
pay. When the present organization
succeeded TO the rights and privileges
of the Atlantic and Pacific il too was
exempt from taxation.
After considerable negotiation there
was an arrangement by which the road
undertook to pay the territory $175 a
mile. There were two ways OF look
ing at this matter. Some people
especially the uniformed regarded the
tax as the limit which the road could
he compelled to pay. The road itself
and most other people looked upon it
as a donation by the road. more or
less voluntarily made. There was
therefore an apprehension IN the
northern part of Arizona that the only
effect which could follow an agitation
of the subject would be to destroy the
present arrangement and leave the mat
ter where it was when the road paid
no taxes.
The memorial was defeated by a vote
of nine to three, Messrs. O'NeilL, Weed
in and Hunt alone supporting 1t.

The RECORD BROKEN
FOR LEGISLATION
Senate Passed Nearly a Thousand
Bills Yesterday and Did a Lot of
Other Work Also.

Washington, Feb. 13.-The senate
today passed a bill giving the govern
ment the right to appeal to the su-
preme court for a construction of the
constitutionality OF any law involved
in a criminal suit. 1t passed after
many amendments had been added and
adopted at the suggestion of senators
who have criticised the provisions of
the bill. The District of Columbia
appropriation bill, carrying nearly
$11.O00.0OO, was passed after hours of
consideration. The bill establishing an
agricultural bank in the Philippines
was taken up but no action resulted.
The conference report on the immigra-
tiOn bill was read but action deferred.
This bill had been in conference since
the last session of congress and the
report Is brought forward at this time
to aid the administration in settling
the Japanese California school prob
lem. A message from the president
urging the consideration of legislation
affecting the public lands was read.

during the present session was held
to consider the private penion bills.

The agricultural appropriation bill
was reported to the senate today and
notice was given by Proctor that it
would be called up tomorrow. AS re-
ported, the bill carries an increase over
that allowed by the house, in appro-
priations for the agricultural depart
ment proper, of s1S4.1SO and of 100000
for forestry reserves, bringing the
grand total to ever eight millions. Prin-
cipal items of increase are s35.OOO for
experiment stations, $4,000 for grain
grading Investigations. $4,000 for ex-
periments in animal feeding.
Good headway was made today by
the house in the consideration of the
naval appropriation bill more than halt

points OF order were sustained against
minor provisions in the bill. President
ROosevelt's public land message was
read. The appropriation for a steel

point of order made by Mr.. Mann of

A NEW MINE TAX BILL.
The Points Of Difference Between u
and the Doran Measure.

Mr.. Weedin presented another bill
for the taxation of mines. II follows
generally the lines OF the Doran bill
though ii frequently departs from II in
important particulars. 1t provides for
a tax on the output of productive
mines those whose output is as much
as 2500. The percentage of the out
put to be assessed is twenty-five in
stead OF twenty. The assessment is
made in a different manner and leaves
the work OF the assessor without re-
view by any officer or board though
the mine owner may appeal to the
courts.
The following Is the text Of the bill:
