"A year or two after the inde-

Rainey, "the officials of the little re-

patriotism peculiarly distasteful to Mr..
Cromwell. Mr.. Cromwell determined
to displace Mr.. Amador and the other
leaders of the constitutional party of
Panama and put in a president more
plant, less devoted to high ideals and,
of course, in such an emergency as
that, his attention was directed to his
old friend and ally, Obaldia. He was

The Daily Missoulian., 1909-01-27

Mr.. Rainey, he directly charged Mr..
Taft with forcing the election of
Obaldia.
THE plan of Mr.. Cromwell and his
associates" he declared was to alb
solutely appropriate to their own use
the revenue of the republic and to
steal the forests and the public lands.
The necessity of Mr.. Taft's interfer-
ence and for the election of Obaldia
becomes now as plain as day"
Mr.. Rainey referred to the fact that
there was pending and about to be
adopted in the general assembly of
Panama "the most infamous railroad
proposition ever submitted to any gov
ernment, by which Randolph d.
Ward of New York was to be largely
the beneficiary. He called attention
to what he said was the failure of Ar
mold Shanklin, the American consul
general at Panama, to make a report
requested by the bureau of forestry
last year because "he evidently feels
he owes his position there to William
Nelson Cromwell" and charged that
certain interested parties were seek
ing to levy tribute upon the people of
Panama and indirectly the people of
the United States in connection with
the timber land frauds.
1T will be interesting to know who
the gentlemen are who are attempt
ing in this way to impoverish the re-
public of Panama." and he mentioned
William Nelson Cromwell, Roger l..
ENl h. ny,o
P. Taft.
Spares W. n. Taft.
Il don't charge that the gentleman
who will be inaugurated president of
the United States on the 4th day
of March is a party to this Infamous
scheme for robbing this little coun-
try. His friendship for Cromwell,
Farnham and e. A. Drake as men,
bers of the board of directors of the
Panama railroad, his continued in
dorsement of both Cromwell and Farm
ham, his interference on the Isthmus
of Panama, which compelled the cleo
tion of corrupt statesman, abso-
lutely under the control of Crom-
well, as president of that republic
all these things and other things for
which the present administration is
responsible-made possible the signing
of a contract by Obaldia which may
bring to the gentlemen interested
therein riches beyond the dreams of
avarice."
Mr.. Rainey charged that Mr.. Crom-
well and Mr.. Farnham have been
actively engaged here for two or three
weeks promoting treaties affecting
Colombia and Panama, pending before
the senate. He said that If the plans
of Mr.. Cromwell and his associates
go through and If these treaties are
confirmed, there will be no revenue
IN Panama out of which to pay the
s., 100000 or more indemnity to Colom-
bia, payment Of which is guaranteed
by this country.

THE United States government will
be called upon to pay it ALL" he pre-
dicted, "and If these plans for the
spoiation of Panama proceed to a
successful conclusion, 1t will not be
long until immense burdens Of diff.
ferent character connected with Pana-
ma will be imposed upon our treas
ury''
These patriotic gentlemen" said
Mr.. Rainey in conclusion, therefore
are being permitted not only to rob
the republic Of Panama, but Indirect
ly to rob the treasury of the United

rection they have had so far the COM

absolute that we had learned to re-

The Confederates We're early astir.

Suddenly. about o'clock, Il furry
was felt in the air, and Il crash came.
General Cleburn's mon had struck our
right wing. and that awful rebel yell
sounded in our ears. sharply reverber-
ating through the pass, and we knew
that something unexpected had oc-
Cured. We had no time to question
what that might be. but later we
learned that General Ruckners men
had strengthened our neighbours force
and that we were in for the conflict
for good or ill., We were surprised for
we had not expected it to occur until
much later in the day. The din be-
came horrible. Somehow we felt that
Il crisis not altogether to be desired by
us was ut hand.
At this desperate juncture Teddy
was seen to run to the rear and plant
himself on hillock some 200 yards
away. Here he unfurcd his flag. |

my soul as the folds of that splendid
banner foated to the breeze. Was it

would have had a different telling.
After all. it is but the repetition of the
fact that we are the creatures Of cir

at the fight told us that when the Con-
fcderates saw the flag and knew that
we had been re-enforced they thought
it best not TO force the fight, as with
out Buckner's help it would have been
a terrible disaster"
And so it was that Teddy's flag the

COMPAHY'S MASCOT,

1t WAS on the morning of Sept. :.
1868, that the Confederate General
Frazier was asked by General Burn
side to surrender Cumberland gap. AS
General Bucllner had retreated toward
Chattanooga while General Burnside's
forces lay at the gap, the garrison felt
secure against attacks by the COnfed-
crates The Federal army was in pos
session of Knoxville. and General
Burnside had ordered to the gap six
teen regiments and two trains of artil
lery. The Confederate force, under Cen
eral Frazier was about 1000 strong,
stationed at Morristown, where he
could control the railroad with sup
plies for General Buckner's army. The
former was ordered to meet the adj
vance of the Federals. who We're
marching toward Jonesvile.
His hope was, we afterward learned,
that part of General Il. +. Lees
army of northern Virginia would re-
enforce him before our march of thir-
ty-siX miles could be made. But he
had reckoned without the Union host
We showed front so formidable that
General Frazier wisely laid down his
arms, and Generals Buckner and Jones
fed across the mountains of east Ten
nesSee.
General Longstreet had evidently ex-
pected that General ID. II. Hills corps
that occupied a secure position at Cat
totts gap, in Pigeon mountain, which
was about fifteen miles from Chatta-
nooga, Il spur Of Lookout mountain,
would come to his relief. but as Cen
erals Iindman and Hill still hoped for
succor from Buckner the opportunity
to evacuate voluntarily was lost.
1t wos at this iuucture that General
Thomas moved upon Hill's left wing
and closed the gateway to Buckner' s
force. This was the turning point in
the speedy victory for the Union in
Tennessee 1t was at Gordon's Mills
that we met General Pat Cleburn.
y crash OF musketry made us reel
early in the engagement, and the fire
WIS so terrific that we were obliged
TO Withdraw to better position on the
hill. Then night came on.
General Cleburns men were Just

that we could hear their voices as

FEATHERS AND EGGSHELLS.


When our birds droop their wings
and pant on the roost we chase them
into the yards FOR the night. The dew
freshens them and in the morning they
are bright and lively.
We find metal roofing on poultry
buildings a pretty hot proposition Tar
roof the same. They retain the heat
so long. There IL nothing better than
cedar shingles.
When you take up breed its pop
ularity must be considered or you will
be stranded with lot of birds you
can't sell. For meat, eggs and fancy
the Wyandottes and Rocks are now
the rage.
The drought in many sections the
past season made oats very light.
ThresherS could blow this light stuff
out. but as they are paid by the bushel
it Is carried TO the granary. Buy oats
by weight this year and be sure your
horse and hens aren't cheated with
chan.
Interest in poultry culture Is shown
by the organization of new poultry
associations everywhere. The Blooms
burg Pa.l association just organized
with 100 members. the Sunbury or
ganzation held its first show last year
with 100 entries, while the Lewisburg
association. only two years old. has
the largest membership in Pennsyl-
vania. These three associations are
within an hours ride of each other.
When n watchdog gets very little
meat it isn't much OF Job to bride
him with piece of round steak. It's
better to feed your dog cheap meat
than to raise chickens for thieves to
eat.
Twenty-seven thousand hens. 10000
young stock and 5000 ducks are
housed on the farms Of Lakewood
On. j. poultry company. They are
buying up adjoining farms and open
ing egg stores in the cities. Don't say
do chickens pay?"
At cornhusking it is poor economy
to let green corn and nubbins lie in the
field unless hogs follow the huskers
snd clean them up
If turkeys clean up this yellow corn
yellow diarrhca will clean them up
and you'll clean up no yellow coin
So many pigeon breeders allow the
droppings To accumulate and cake on
the loft floors.
If you intend to raise chicks on the
same ground next season, lime the sur
face well. plow it under and SOW
wheat. Roll this smooth and keep the
chickens Off till ii Is well grown.
