On I hiirsdav the senate pas-ed tho ' . , rfp"Tiin rtf i rlii!1 lull, Including die Harris amendment, by a majority of eight votes. On Friday Senator; the sundry civil hill and 1111 Thurs Mitehcll of Oregon opened (ho debate ' (,.y (be senate hill to nniiito tin on the Chinese exclusion hill with 11 carefully prepared speech. Ibis measure w ill doubtless o ipy some lime as there nrc a variety nf opin Inns ns to the host method of iicconi plishing the desired end, although there is none as to the advisability of exclusion. "The question of an isthnihin ranul will he e aisidered at 'his session." said Senator Allison when I allied him as to the chances for canal legis lation. "I 11111 not prepared to say What will he the decision of the sen ate," continued the senator, "hut the hill will not lie left in committee, The senate will take some action. Yes, it is possible thai it will adopt the Spoouer resolution. Of that I cannot say, hut you may say for me that the mutter will he carefully e m- shlcrcd." As Senator Allison i chairman of the republican steering committees his statement is pirtieu larly authoritative. Senator Hale, whom I saw later in the day, rcmaikel wltli a tw inkle in his eye. "You newspapermen remind me of the man who wrote to the Justices of the supreme court, when that body was nlmiit to consider the income tax law, and asked each what would lie his decision. The steering rommiltee is not a public committee. It is rt private p ilitieal organization, but you go first to one member and then to another, asking each his opinion, and before We know It, you know more about the program of the committee than tire committee knows of itself." "Hut the case is not an alngous," I replied, "The man had nine stern justices to Interrogate, while I have but on genial senator." "Hut the genial senator does not pro pose to give away any stale secrets," the senator replied laughingly. However, notwithstanding the sena tor's ineommunicnli veuess, the pro gram now contemplated by the coin mittee, though not officially adopted, will, as predicted in a former letter, place the Philippine bill immediate ly after the Chinese exclusion bill. It, in turn, will be followed by the Cuban reciprocity bill, and then the Isthmian canal will be considered. The various appropriation hills have not yet been placed but will be taken up us opportunity offers. The Indian appropriation bill, having been con sidered iluring the "morning hour," passed Saturday. Present indications Bre that the Cu ban reciprocity bill w ill meet with a "stormy reception in the senate. The democrat have formally notified Senator I'lutt of Connecticut that they w ill oppose, the measure and one republican senator has also given notice that he will move to amend it so that the president shall he auth orized to make reciprocal concessions to Cuba only after the negotiation of a treaty with the new Cuban gov ernment confirming the provisions of the Piatt amendment. The senator who has given notice of this amend ment is one of the most intluential members of the senate ami it is freely predicted, in the inner circle.), that lie is spokesman for a small but powerful group of republican sena tors. These gentlemen fear to trust Cuba and would seek to bind her by n treaty which w ill be the voluntary net of her own government and w hose provisions shall be unequivocal. Such an amendment would, it is tested by the friends of the Cuban movement, seriously retard the ap plication of relief of which they be lieve the island stands seriously in need. The opposition of the dem ocrats is a matter of surprise us the bouse democrats have generally ex pressed themselves as favorable to the concession. Senator Plait is heartily in favor of the bill but would like to see an increase in the amount of larilT reduction and an extension of the time limit. YI .ii the wavs and means coin- lllillee adopted tl Cull. ill reciprocity I bi!l i.i-t Monday it was by a vote of 11 to 5 viiii three democrats voting ...y."

Friday and Saturday were devoted to a consideration of tin Chinese exelu-ion hills, 11 majority and h minority measure. The dim loerats have vcrv gencrallv aligned themselves on the side of the minor ity measure as have some republi cans. The difference between the two is not great and consists chiefly in methods rather than in purpose. Many of the Pacific coast members w ill support the minority measure which is the more drastic in its provisions. Today should, by the rules of the house, be devoted to.ihe afialrs of the District of Columbia, but the chairman of the District com mittee will probably walvehis rijrhts in favor of the exclusion bill. Then Is some hope that tins measure may be disposed of before tomorrow so that it will iint be necessary to hold it over until after the consideration of the Cuban hill. The investigation of the "seen t report" of Captain Christinas, which cast r flections upon the honor of congress, lies degenerated into a farce and there is a general feeling that Representative Richardson has placed himself in a very rediculous position by his resolutions demanding that the matter be investigated. A fair sample of the nonsense on w hich the report was based was given one day last week when the testimony devel oped that Christmas had agreed to pay 55(1,1101) to a man named Knox, and hail advanced $" to hind theeoii tract, "Hecause Knox said lie knew a man who knew Senator Manila." Christinas had also advanced fS9 to one Walherg, "proprietor of the In ternational Newspaper Agency," whicli agency supplied news to three small papers in New Jersey. Since my last letter .lames Garfield has accepted the position of civil service commissioner to succeed Mr. Rnilenberg; and Frank P. Sargent, (fraud Master of the Hrotherhood of Locomotive Firemen, has accepted the appointment of commissioner of immigration. Original Ilamai Hr-.

Phkss ; I notice by your paper Mint there are two republican candidates for delegate to tho state convention. In common with several republicans with whom I have conversed I am at a loss to know why there should be a struggle for this p- sition unless i t lie cnniliilati s are in opposition on 1 the governorship. 1 have not heard that such was the fact hence cani'Ot jim'lerstand where there nhou'il be such an apparently strong contest. The pnity is small in this county at best and such strife has a tendency to still further weaken it by creat ing dissension and animosities. A few years ago we were united, winking in harmony and the boast, ed democratic, majority was being rapidly diminished. latterly there appears to be party contention and we are losing ground. This ought not to be and I would be pleased if yon would publish this and give 118 an explanation, it possible, of the situation. Let Mie republicans know who or what is responsible for this state of affairs. Yours for harmony, A Longtime .R kit h mo .vs. Apr. B, 1J02. Editor's Reply. It is with reluctance and with no desire to inject anything of a pe.1 snniil nature in the matter, only so far as may be necessary to give in formation of the situation, that the writer is induced to reply. Serious maladies demand heroin treatment and the republicans of tho county are enlitled, if they so demand, to any knowledge at our command There is, s we understand, no op position on the question of tho gov ernorship. Mr. Angle is a tried and truestalwart republican having only the best interests of tho parly at heart and if elected delegate will carry out tho party wishes. It is not a Quay and anti-Quiy or Elkin and anti-Elkin contest. It is on the olio side determination to domi nate the party In Mie interest, of one man and on the other a desire to carry out the wishes of the party for tho best results. In short, the question turns on the appointment of a postmaster in Milford and in order that the real animus may be understood a brief history of the case is necessary, Dr. II. B. Reed, the present conn ty chairman, came Into this place a few years ago from Brooklyn, a stranger to the people of the county. After locating here ho expressed a desire to enter politics as a pastime, not having any special occupation, and to aid in building up the party. In the spring of 1900 when tho pri mary election ticket was being made up on the last evening for filing names the comity chairman, W. T. Strublo, found the ticket one name short for county committee. On consulting with the writer, recalling the expressed wish of Dr. Reed to participate in politics, his namo was suggested and placed on tho ticket. Being informed, ho expressed his gratification for the place and de clared Ids earnest desire to work tor tho benefit of the party. Soon after W. A. M. Mitchell of this place re oiilvol Information froia Eastoii that the alternate delegate to the nation, al convention was conceded to this county and ho was requested to sug. gest a name. Tiie writer called on Dr. Reed ntid asked if ho would lite) the position. He. again expressed cordial thanks for tho remembrance and accepted. Tlie above marks Dr. Reed's entrance to Pike county polities. During tho presidential and rep resentntive campaign which follow ed Dr. Reed practically ignored the republican h aders and followed bis own methods. He nought advice and counsel mainly from a young man who conies of democratic an cestry and whoso father for twoj decades or mine was a leading dem- I A Faijing. Roaring Flood. Washed down a . telegraph lint which C'bas. C. Ellis of Lisbon, la had to repair. "Standing waist deep in icy water," lie writes, "gavt me a terrible cough and cold. Ii grew worse daily. Finally tho ho.-t doctors in On k land. Neb. , tSioux City and Omaha said I had consumption and could not live. Then 1 b'an Using Dr. King's New Discovery and was wholly cured by fix bot tles." Positively guaranteed for coughs, colds an 1 ail throat and lung troubles by all ill ovists, l'rieo C Jc and tl. ocrat ntid office holder, serving his party fifteen years fis county super intendent and four as representative. This young man immediately after the death of the democratic incum bent of the post office hero in M-09 whs an applicant for Mm place and procured a nelltion largely signed by democrats on the understanding that he was n democrat. In 1300 Dr. Reed, chairman of the republic- an county committee, was apparent- ly guided by his advice and he be came a republican applicant for the postofficn anil was and is now being strenuously 111 ged by Dr. Reed for the appointment. Old republicans bore, men who have gro,vn grey in party service and who have spent time and means in furthering the party interests for more years than tboyonng man has lived, were nnd are entirely ignorrd. When a com promise was attempted the yonng man stated emphatically that he was "no compromise" and would not yield in his aspirations. His candidacy for the pristorthe hero is, therefore, tho solo and only object, of Dr. Reed's candidacy for delegate, by the election to which position ho hopes to further this yonng man's ambitions. As evi dence .of Dr. Reed's selfishness and desiro to be sole arbiter in the parly, when the democratic coroner dieiV, Dr. Rfced, without consulting bis as sociates on tho committee or the re. publicans here as to the appoint meet bud a successor appointed to the place. As further evidence, the county committee of 1900, which year was an important campaign, elected n treasurer. Dr." Rood, to whom ihe campaign Innds were paid, never handed over to the duly appointed treasurer one dollar of the funds but took tho solo responsibility of their disbursement into his own hands. His recent attempt to turn down an old soldier in the Matamoras postofficn, contrary to the wishes of tho party, is evidence of his regard for the veterans of tho Civil war, and is too fresh in tlfo minds of the people there to require comment. 8'ich action so far as consulting is concerned has marked his official conduct since ho has been on the committee. It is the rnle-or-ruin one-man policy, a policy whicli, per sistently pursued, in the end will disintegrate nnd break down any (tirty. To mention minor matters, showing tho spirit which nut nates Dr. Reed and his coterie of ndhor. ents, It may bo remarked that last. and this year they have takon tho printing of tho ballots, paid ior by assessments on the candidates, to a leniocratic officio. Tho abovo partly comprises in outline tho facts concerning the deplorable condition of' ;ho p.'irty, which instead of bein:. united and harmonious is rent with dissension solely to advance the pecuniary in terests nnd political hopes of a young man who has barely learned the name "republican."
