will be put in the freighting service.
The Lily and Howard has been out of
commission for about two years, and dur
ing that time has been lying in the har-
Dor here. Her owners have kept her
painted and in good order SO that all nee

appear to indicate that we have at
times displayed an inability to believe we
might ever be disturbed by external prob
lens. Gen. Grant, while President, nego-
tiated treaty for the purchase Of the
Island OF st. Thomas. Our Senate failed
to ratify it. Efforts to acquire 1t were
afterward renewed but without avail.
At one time we held undisputed possession
of numerous islands in the Pacific ocean,
but for reasons which seemed satisfactory
to the nation all claim thereto was volun-
tarily relinquished. Some of those islands
now possess strategical value. When a
handful of Americans seized the govern
ment of Hawaii and petitioned for an
nexation to the United States there was
sufficient adverse public opinion to induce
our President to reject this petition and
endeavor to restore the native monarchy.
No one now doubts the defensive value

under whose administration of the War
Department the great institution for mil

and Assistant Secretary Oliver were pres

Gen. Bell, in presenting Secretary Root
as the principal speaker, referred to the
first hundred years Of American develop
ment as being characterized by indifer-
ence to any external interests. He could
cite only the Monroe doctrine prior to the
Standardization war as q foreign inter-
est Of the United States. The Spanish
American war, he declared, taught the ma
ton the faulty Of such apathy. 1t de-
veloped a lack of preparation to promptly
meet military contingencies, but, he de-
clared, regardless OF what the policy of
the government may be in the future. the
army will never be caught without plans
to meet an emergency.

HADLEY AS TAX DoDGER.

Kansas City, Mo-, Dec. VIII
liam Hicks, Democratic Representa-
tive elect, whose seat Is being chal-
lcngcd ON the grounds that he had
not paid his State and county taxes,
has discovered something unthought
Of in the Governor elect record.
In looking up Hicks's tax record
il was found that Herbert :. HadIcy
had failed to pay his own taxes
and ut II time when he was holding
public office. The delinquent tax
books of this county, on the same
Hicks was in default, also shows
Hadlcy was in default.
For having failed to pay his 1904
taxes Hadlcy's name was entered
On the delinquent tax books, the re-
cord showing that he had been AS
sesSed at 800 and that December
Is, 1906, he had been compelled to
pay the County Collector S4.32 taxes
and penalties.
at comes with very poor grace, -
said Kimbrough Stone, son of Sen
ator Stone, this afternoon, "fOr Mr..
Hadley to speak of ousting fairly
elected man for tax lodging, when
there is this record in the office 81
FnIlnptnr Adams
eve maintain that default in the
payment Of taxes is not necessarily
the result OF II Discrimination to pay
taxes, but simply II default through
inattcntiOn. No one would pretend
to say Mr.. Hadlev intended evadiug
his taxes. Nor can Mr.. Hadley
say, in the same direction, that Mr..
Hicks had more evil Intentions"
The discovery of the Hadley de-
fault is regarded here by Republic
ans as ending the efforts at st. Louis
headquarters to steal Democratic
seats by rcsorting to the tax lists.

THE OLD BUT EVER NEW
CHRISTMAS STORY

And it cam" tu pass in those days,
that there went out decree from
Cacser Augustus, that all the world
should De taxed And this taxing
was first made when Cyrenius was
governor Of SYRIA And all went
to be taxed, every one into his own
city. And Joseph also went up from
Galilrr, out of the city of Nazareth,
into Judca, unto the city Of David,
which is called Bethlehem, because
! he was Of tho house and lineage OF
David To be taxed with Mary his
espouscd wife, being great with
child. And SO it was, that, while
they were there, the days were ac-
cOmpIishcd that she should be de-
Iivered. And sh" brought forth her
first-born son, and wrapped him in
swaddIing clothes, and laid him il. II

for them in the inn,
And there were in the same coun-
try shepherds abiding in the field,
keeping watch over their flock 10y
night, And 10, the angel ~ the
Lord came upon them, and tn" glory
Of tn" Lord Shouc round about them;
and they wcr" sur" afraid And the
angel said unto them, Fear not; for,
behold, bring You good tidings Of
great joy, which shall be to all pco-
pie. For unto YOU is born this day,
in the city Of David, savior, which
is Christ the Lord And this shall
b" sign unto you: We shall find
tn" babe wrapped in swaddling

suddenly there was with the angel IA

The insult handed to Congress
by President Roosevelt in his nm
uual message is clean Cut-there Is
no doubt about that. lie charged
that body with legislation that pro
tects criminals and then asserted
in blunt language that it did it to
shield its own members from in
yestigatiou. Both branches of
Congress appreciate the fact that
they have been lnsulted all right,
but they don't seem to know just
what to do about it. The Senate
has passed resolution referring
that portion Of the message relat-
ing to the secret service to the ap.
preparations committee with in
structiOns to investigate whether
the legislation referred to in the
message has impaired the efficiency
or suiHcipncy Of the force employed
in the secret service together
with lot of other routine iuvestl
CATION which is supposed to have
IN view the exposition of something
or other that will put the Presi-
dent in hole. The House,
after mancuvering around for more
than week, finally decided to de-
mand of the President the evidence
upon which his insulting charge
and extraordinary language are
used. Which all sounds very
proper for diguifed body, but it
doesn't at all express the indlgnlty
and disgust felt by every Senator
and Congressman. They doubtless
would like to send the whole mes
sage back to the President with Il
singing rebuke and tell him if he
had anything to communicate TO
show little more appreciation for
truth and language BETTING the
temporary dignity which the Amer
lean people had mistakenly con-
ferred on him, in addressing n CO.
ordinate branch of government.
