PALISADES FIFTH ANNI-
VERSARY.

Any editorial endorsement of Pal
isade's Fifth Anniversary would be al
most persihate foolishness. The little
old town is moving along in such
smart precision, that like the bellied
sails of a yacht in action, there isn't
much more to be desired, unless it be
the very natural hope that the wind
will hold, in which event Palisade will
win the race To those who have
been here all along to watch the pref
ty attempt al. building a town, the eff
fort makes an affectionate appeal. We
all love Palisade, and are matched
against the fates in helping her to
grow more and more lovely. Dick
Bennett once wrote a little verse
which bore the refrain, "Palisade is
good enough for me- and that's about
the way we all feel to-day Let's keep
that song going.

much benefit from defamation, and it
will be happy moment when there
is a universal return to the old-time
system. The modern school appears
to prefer teaching boys to crochet

fads, where the old fundamentals are
relegated to the storage vault, and
where the almost feminine arts are
beaten into boys instead of the more
masculine studies that induce manli-
ness and correct grounding.

APPRECIATE PRAISE.

If kind words, both written and
spoken, can mean anything, "The
Palisadian" has reason to felicitate it
self from many directions These last
few weeks have brought the kindest
expressions from the readers both at
home and abroad. By "abroad" is
meant those who see our humble eff
forts outside of Palisade In all of
the efforts we have put forth in pre-
senting these pages there has been
perfect sincerity of purpose always;
and where sincerity is evidenced, truth
must be the dominant factor of
achievement. Whatever the impress
sion which may have been created in
behalf of thi spaper, it is to be hoped
that it has been good. The aim of
the editor has been to promote good
cheer, happiness, right purpose, cor
rect principles, sincere thought and
the general uplift of human action.
He has labored zealously from day to
day with no purpose of selhshness,
dllu Will TIC thought lHdt Jul lCddCIo
were entitled to the best there is
And while he has not supplied much
of his own that counts, the pages of
literature have been delved into for
all that is sound, reasonable and sin
cere from those thinkers who have
illumined the pages of history with
the highest ideals. To this end, there
fore, the purpose has been to cater to
the varying tastes of our readers.
Whatever has been gained by his eff
fort to be clean and wholesome, has
added to his purpose to keep trying.
There are ideals to be commended.
This we know. And our ideal in pub
fishing The Palisadian" is to make
each subsequent issue at least worthy,
and, if possible, better than the last.
If we have presented something diff
ferent in village papers, that is an
end gained for good; if we have
given any one pleasure or higher
aims, that is another point for good.
Indeed, may we not go still further
and say, "All things work together
for good to them that serve the
Lord" Therefore, when you say
good things of us, it spurs us on to
better effort.

TONS OF DOCUMENTS
BECOME DEBATE SUBJECT

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-Politics,
including Democratic references to
former President Roosevelt as the late
lamented" and the absent one" was
injected into a debate in the house to-
day on a resolution which was adopt
ed providing for the destruction of a
thousand tons of worthless public
documents.
Mr.. Fitzgerald of New York declared
that in the million or more pamphlets
were approximately $4,000 copies of
messages of former President Roose-
welt, documents" Mr.. Fitzgerald
added, that are both Illuminating and
precious and were highly priced but a
short time ago. They are messages of
one who, though now absent, can
never be forgotten in this august as
semblage"
Replying to a suggestion that there
We're many copies of President CleVe-
lands messages still undisturbed, Mr.
Fitzgerald said he supposed that at
some time the Democrats must have
entertained the same sincere affec-
ton" for Mr.. Cleveland as the Repub-
licans entertained for "the absent la
mented president whose presence in
Africa is so pleasing and his return so
much feared"

Much Partisan Feeling Is Injected
Into Dispute of Senators
Relative to Destruction
of Documents
Associated Pressl

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13,-The house
today passed the fortifcations appro-
priation bill. carrying more than So
100000.
The senate, while it spent no money,
put in more than two hours in dis
cussing whether it should allow $4,000
600 worth of claims for additional sal
aries to certain postmasters, who
served from 1864 to 1874. Senator Pen
rose attacked the proposition as the
work of claim agents.
Much partisan feeling was injected
into a discussion in the house over
the destruction of 1000 tons of old and
worthless documents. Among them
We're messages to congress from Re
publican and Democratic presidents.
This fact brought forth comment both
humorous and serious, as to the value
of these documents. which, however,
were ordered consigned to the waste
pile.
Two hours were devoted by the SEN
ate to a discussion of claims for ad-
ditional allowance as salary of post
masters who held office between 1864
and 1874. The whole subject was re-
ferred to the committee on postoffices,
with the understanding that a report
should be made by February l.
reference of the subject to the COM
mittee, whereupon Chairman Penrose
attacked the whole scheme.
He quoted letters to show that the
effort to obtain legislation was the re-
suit of the activity of claim agents,
who, he said, had contracted for from
% to so per cent of the amounts in all
cases.
He mentioned as the chief of these
agents, Major e. G. Rathbone, fourth
assistant postmaster under the McKin-
ley administration, and who, as di-
rector of posts in Cuba, became in
volved with the department over ac-
counts.
Senator Dick defended Major Rath-
bone, expressing the opinion that he
had been "a capable, honest and mis-
judged public official
Snappy colloquy and an injection of
politics featured the proceedings in
the house, but the only important ac-
tion taken was the passage of the for
tiflcations appropriation bill, carrying
more than $5,00O,OOO for the next fiscal
year.
