The amendment of the Senate COM
mittee on finance taking hides FROM
the free list and restoring the Ding
ley law of Is per cent ad valorem was
before the Senate all day Monday
Senator Warren of Wyoming and Sen
ator Carter of Montana supported the
provision and in vigorous language at
tackled the attitude of the free hide
advocates, while Senator Page of Yer
mont defended the action of the House
in placing hides on the free list. In
support of free hides Mr.. Page con-
tended that the adoption of such a
policy would not injure the farmers,
while at the same time it would be OF
vast benefit to the leather manufac-
turers. He said the beef trust garner
ed all the profits on hides from what
ever source. Awaiting themselves of
the presence of a quorum, the leaders
of the House obtained action upon
several important matters. Principal
among these was the conference report
on the bill providing for the taking
of the thirteenth census, ana Win re-
spect to that measure the debate hing
ed on the Senate amendment requiring
that applicants for appointment must
take the examinations in the States
or Territories in which they profess
to live and that they must have had
at least one years actual domicile
therein previous to such examination.
The amendment was concurred in, but
all other amendments were disagreed
to and the bill was again sent to con-
ference. The Senate resolution provld-
ing for the continuance of unexpended
balances in connection with certain
river and harbor improvements also
was adopted after lively discussion.
At 1924 p. m. the House adjourned I'M
til Thursday.

The Senate Saturday covered a null

nothing of Importance. Beginning at
10 o'clock the income and corporation
tax questions received attention for
some time and ultimately were post
poned, with the understanding that
they should not be taken up again I'M
til after the tariff provisions proper
should be finally settled. Senator Al
drich brought in the committee amend
ment to the wood pulp paragraph,
which proved to be a provision for
doubling the duty on wood pulp COM
ing from countries which undertake to
prohibit the expectation Of logs to this
country Senator Beveridge presented
an amendment for the cutting in two
of the House ad valorem duty on cash
registers. Mr. Aldrich also presented
the finance committees provision for
a duty on hides. All these measures

Senate, but so far as action was con-
cerned were left at the close of the
day where they stood at the begin

HOW OLD FoURTHs WERE GEL.
 EBRATED.

The Bulletin, in its historical sup plement today prints four reports of celebrations of Independence day, two at the close of the 18th century, and two in the 18th century-1s45 and 1S65--widely different in charac- ter and interest. These reports show that the early patriots were negligent of their opportunities, for 22 years aft- CT the Revolutionary war they we're
 being praised for reviving the old
 spirit, and the next year they had an exceptionally lively celebration and an address by a woman whose name should have been preserved for the honor and spirit she displayed in mak- ing a speech on Peppers hill to the women gathered there while the men were feasting and responding to toasts in Union hall. After the lapse of a helf-century he have another report, and there appears to be no doubt that .sthe spirit of '75" had waxed and
 waned. for 1t was then in cold-water form and perfectly safe and sane, but at did not please Editor Faulkner of the Norwich News. who pointed to . the good old times when things were done up smart, barring the liquorizing part. The last Fourth was after the close of the Civil war, and the spirit Individual and potGed--was revived, built was undoubtedly different from the early days when the doings first centered round the flag. then around the meeting house and then around the feast-and the reading of the Dec laration of Independence was never omitted. There Is food for reflection and thought in these four celebrations. They show that the noise and fatali- ties are modern. and that the '1iquor- ization" is about all that has held constant but declined. The time was when everybody was drunk on New England rum" but the impurity of the liquors and their bad effects have led | to greater sobriety and in this respect | better days.

SUNDAY MORNING TALK
NoIsELEss PATRIOTISM.

Every one today or tomorrow ought | to read or reread Edward Everett Hale's classic story the one by which he will be longest known, "The Man Without a Country" Now that Dr Hale has so recently passed away from us and we no longer shall hear from time to time his ringing and helpful messages on vital matters, let us take afresh to heart the lessons taught and exemplifed by him, and particu- larly on the eve of our national birthday, his medication of patriot ism. Great as he was in various spheres of activity, he was an intense ly loyal American, ready to pour out his life in the endeavor to make this nation the best on earth, an object lesson in freedom. intelligence and vir- tue to the rest of the world.
 pr. HaIe's largest single eontribu- tion to the perpetuation of the repub- lie was this little book, written in the dark days of the civil war, when not a few persons here and there in the north were becoming apathehc, dis couraged,l and even disloyal. Based on the actual case of an Ohio politi- clan, who said he did not care to live in country that permitted certain acts of the Lincoln administration, the story harks back to the time of Aaron Burr's conspiracy and pictures one of the consptrators, young Philip Nolan, saying when brought before court martial, T wish I may never hear of the United States again."
 The grim old colonel presiding at the court martial took the youngster at his word and gave sentence that he should be thereafter prisoner of the United States, no mention to be made of 1t in his presence. Then began his long repatriation. He was put on a government vessel whose cruise never ended. Its officers were changed ey- cry few. years. But Nolan never cana home. He grew from young manhood to middle life and then to old age. and still the war orders were unrelaxed.
 Dr. Hale, with expert powers of de- lineation. describes how he tried to make little country of his own out of his narrov stateroom by decorat- Ing 1t with a flag and 1rawpng a man of the United States from nemorv As youth he had laughed lightly when his sentence was pronounced, but long before he became a gray-haired man his terrible punishment cut like a knife, into his heart, and Dr Hale represented him as saying, when on his death bed, to a young officer. o, Danforth, I know I am dvine Surely you will tell me something now Do not speak till I say what am s,,ra you must know. that there is not in America-God bleas her--a more loyal man than l. Thers cannot he a man.
Norwich bulletin., 1909-07-03


 Philip Nolan, out of bitter experi- ence, is represented as learning to love and value his country. But must we in real life pass through any. or- deal corresponding to the one which Dr. Hale so vividly imagined before we can be raised out of our neglect, apathy and self absorption to the love of country and the willingness to do as. well as we possiblys can the plain, prosaic, everyday duties of citizen- ship? We shall not, in all probabili- ty, be called upon to shoulder musk cts and march to distant battlefields, but just where we are day by day, we must do the patriots part, thinking always as much of the other man as ourselves, of the broad interests of the country, no less than of our particu- lar section.
 In the midst of the firing of cannon and our holiday festivities, we need to cultivate a love of country that does not end in noise or smoke.
