Mr.. George G. Sturgiss since he has
been Ill Congress has drawn more
than thirty thousand dollars from the
peoples treasury and what has he
done for them in return tor it? There
is not one thing of the slightest I'M
portance which he has accomplished
in the interest of the people whom he
misrepIesents, His sole object since
he first entered congress has been to
keep in line with the machine and to
serve it that he might stand in with
il and that he might get the necessary
funds from the trusts which he has
served as q part of the Cannon ma
chine, to corrupt and deoauch the
voters OF the district and thereby keep
his seat in congress Mr.. Sturgiss,
we understand, at his home assumes
the role of IL church man but his con-
duct in congress and in fight f. r
reelection he seems to lay aside his re-
religion, and engage in methods
which are common to the machine
politician and the heeler. lie cares
nothing for the interests of the people
ana bsrters them for campaign funds
as matters of little importance. We
are informed that it has been the Gus
tom for the steel trust to give never
less than $4,000 TO carry this district
for the republican candidate and we
all know that that is not in the inter
est Of the people,
Junior Brown is honest and capahha
and ne will never be found selling his
people for mess OF pottage.

Congressman Longworth, apparent
ly as the mouth piece of the admins
tration has publicly announced that
Cannon must go. Ifthat be.true and
the administration has decided that it
will dump Cannon overheard what will
become Of the congressman from West
Nlrgi MIA all of whom always voted in
support of the Speaker? If the presi-
dent should throw Cannon out why
should not the people Of West Nlr-
gina net throw out his supporters? If
Cannon is an undesirable why are not
his tools?
If there are any republicans in the
second district who think like the re-
publicans of the West how can they
support Mr.. Sturgiss2 Cannon may
lie kicked out but so long as such men
as Sturgiss remain in congress and
control legislation another Speaker
will be found who will prove as true to
the money Interests as Cannon him
self has done. If Cannon must go why
not Sturgiss? He ought to go for he is
really as Objectionable as Cannon.
If the people of this district elect
William q. Brown he will be the ser
want of the people and will not be the
tool Of boss especially if that boss be
the representative of the trusts.

The Senate is rapidly disposing
of the measures originally pro
posed in the messages of Presl-
dent Taft. The conservation bill
was put upon it's final passage
early this week, and on Thurs
day the railway bill was disposed
of. On Saturday the postal saw
ings bank bill was under consid-
Grafton and the final vote was ia
ken before the day ended. There
will be next week a motion to
make the Appalachian Forest
Reserve the special order OF bus
mess in the Senate. There is a
plan for building a number of
large department, buildings in
Washington, involving an outlay
of at least thirteen millions of
dollars, which it is expected will
be launched at this session of
Congress. The ground has al
ready been,purchased:and a new
State building, a new Commerce
and Labor building, it is thought,
will be begun and. completed in
the next four or five years.

again he can have the support Of
the Republican party, and if that
could not be, the Democratic par.
ty might be willing to try its
luck under a new leader. That
old party might be tempted to
forego Bryan for the sake of
having a greater leader.
Would a new third party take
the kinks out of the tariff ques-
ton? No party can do that. 1t
is perpetual task. AS long as
men differ with each other indi-
vidualIy the difference will ap-
pear in the party formation. Re-
publicans are not in agreement
about the tariff, and when the
Democrats are in power they dis
agree, too, and a new party, if
of national breadth, would also
fail to agree.
There is no need of a third
party at this time. None will be
organized. We congratulate
Theodore Roosevelt on his safe
return home, and wish him rest
and peace. If people will be
pleased to let that man alone he
will find a way to make himself
useful. The demand for him is |
great and he is capable of doing
many things without entering
politics.

first administration, his exper,
ience had been entirely provin.
cial and local, and it is probable
that social and diplomatic rela-
tions largely with representa-
tives of other governments who
know English very imperfectly,
the Secretary himself being con-
fined to his vernacular, make his
duties doubly onerous.
Much interest is experienced
in political and local circles with
reference to the appointment Of
a Justice of the Supreme Court
to succeed Justice Moody, who,
it is understood, will probably
never be able to resume his dut-
les on the Supreme Bench. A
bill has been introduced in Con-
gress to pension him. 1t is ex-
pected that President Taft will
be under the necessity of ap-
his successor, and in
case he does it will be the third
Justice of the highest court in
the country that he has appointed
during the first fifteen months of
his presidency. 1t is very prob
able that before the end of his
term he may be called upon to
appoint still other Justices of the
Supreme Court, because at least
two of those on the Bench are
very near the age of superannu-
alton.

Some people in this place are

fact that we now have one. it
seems rather absurd to be ask
ing for it's continuance. The
people were not consulted at all
as to whether they wanted it at
first. We think it good thing
to have and hope it may keep on,
but with a condition that would
seem entirely reasonable. Last
winter there were more pupils in
attendance from outside this
special district than in it. The
sum paid in for their tuition
would not pay one teachers daily
wages. Therefore, if the other
districts want to share the bene-
fits of our High School let them
put up money to help pay for any
building or other improvements
needed.

Washington Letter.
Washington, June IS


| Congress at Washington is ex'
pediting work with a view to an
early adjournment, which it is
thought by some will take place
on Saturday, the 25th inst, but
which others think will not oc-
cur much before the End or Sd
of July. After three months of
uncertainty as to it's fate, the
bill admitting the territories of
Arizona and New Mexico to
statehood was taken up by the
Senate on Thursday and passed,
after a brief debate of not more
than two hours, and thus two
more large territories are added
to what is called the "Sisterhood
of States". All the speeches
were favorable to the creation of
the two states, but the Demo-
Gratis of the Senate favored the
House bill. AS passed the bill
provides for the admission as
states of the two territories after
a constitution has been adopted
by each of them, which consti-
tuition must be approved by the
president and ratified by Con-
gress. There will be wild rejoic-
ing in Arizona and New Mexico,
for only a few days ago hope of
achieving statehood during the
present session of Congress had
been given up.

for governor of Pennsylvania
which he is likely to receive. It
