An Appreciated "Kick."

Postmaster Prosser of Vox called
at The Record Office this week, and
while the object of his visit was to
do some kicking, we appreciated
it, also the interest he takes IN
rendering the patrons of his office
satisfactory service. We must
say, with apologies to our readers
at Vox and elsewhere, that the blame
should rest upon us. Since the first
of the year we have had a rush of
business and been necessarily late
with our paper. In each instance.
however,it has been through desire
to give our patrons the benefit OF
our columns, and the latest and best
service we could command. We
hope in the future to be able to mail
The Record so that our large circle
of readers at and in the vicinity of
Vox will receive their paper by Sat-
urday. If we fail, please remember
that it is positively not our desire to
be late.

THE REPUBLIC OF CHINA.
Peking VIII Remain the Capital
--OfficerS to be Inaugurated.

Nanking, China, March 5:-In an
effort to restore order and inaugu-
rate stable government as soon as
possible, it is understood that DR. Sun
Vat Sen and his advisers have decid-
ed to go to Peking and make that city
for the present at least-the cap
ital of the republic. This step is re-
gardeo as advisable on account of
the mutinous spirit evinced by the
troops in the vicinity of Peking and
the general unrest there.
The plans which are now being
prepared provide for the early re-
moval of the entire official machine
ry of the new republic. DR. Sun Vat
Sen, the acting President, and Ii
Yuang-Heng, the Vice-President, will
be accompied by all the members of
the Cabinet and by the assembly.
The officials will be guarded by

1000 veteran troops and picked
body-guards of ninety men.
1t is believed here that the re-
moval of the seat of government to
Peking will of itself restore order
there. The formal establishment of
the new government and the inaug-
uration of Yuan Shi Kai as Presi-
dent will be undertaken immediate
ly.
DR. Sun Vat Sen is confident that
affairs in Marking will remain peace
full in the meantime.
Official announcement of the re-
moval to Peking will probabl be
withheld until the return here OF the
four Southern delegates. who have
been in consultation with Yuan. 1t
is understood that Yuan is in favor
of the move.

ness Transacted.

meeting in the graded school build
ing Yesterday afternoon. This was a
most importa MT and profitable meet
ing, since it was the occasion of the
election of officers to serve for the
next two years. The league first
heard Mr. Vansant, who presented
the subject or the Cottolene cooking
contest, which is elsewhere adver-
tised in The Record. The members
very gladly accepted his proposition,
and the proceeds from the sale of
cakes. etc, will go to the league.
Mrs L " Gilland, the retiring
president, whom all regret to lose,
for she has used every effort for the

inspiration and helpful suggestions.
Miss Erchmann, the treasurer, re-
ported S133.S2 collected and S12.ll
disbursed.

that the railroad authorities had so
far failed to commence the much
needed improvement to the plot OF
ground at the depot.

favorable report.

change for the sale of articles Of
wearing apparel. fancy work, cakes,
etc.
An interesting discussion was held
as to the advisabilty of establishing
a Junior Civic league. 1t was final
ly decided to interest the school
children and get them to pledge
themselves to keep the school prem
ises clean and attractive. Mrs Louis
Gilland was asked to address the
children on the subject in the school
auditorium at an early date.
The league, desiring to preserve
the beautiful trees in the town from
being killed by mistletoe, as so many

DECLARE THEY ARE HONEST.
Steel Officials Answer Govern
ment, and Deny All Charges.

New York, March 5:-The United
States Steel corporation and other
defendants made public today an an
swer to the Federal Governments Pc
tition for a permanent injunction to
prevent the destruction of books
and papers which might be used as
evidence in the investigation of the
affairs of the steel corporation. The
answer denies the allegation of the
Government that papers of the
American Steel and Wire company,
which were destroyed last fall would
have shown that J A Farrell, now
president of the United States Steel
corporation, aided or abetted in the
operation of the wire pool for which
many officers of the wire trust
were fined, disclaims any attempt to
conceal or suppress from the Gov
ernment any papers or documents
bearing upon the conduct of the
steel business, and declares absolute
" without ground the "imputation'
that any of the defendants are
about to destroy or likely to destroy
pertinent papers, or that an inJunc-
ton is necessary for their preserva-
ton.
Owing to the recent death OF
Judge Lanning, of fhe United States
court in New Jersey, where the case
is in hand, and the refusal of the
court to hear argument in the mat
ter without full bench, the answer
was not actually filed, but was placed
today in the hands of Jacob M Dick
inson, attorney for the Government,
in Philadelphia. The answer was
made public here later, and will be
