THE WASHINGTON LETTER.
Enthusiastic mid heart'olf ns was
the celebration of Independence day
in this couu'ry liiis year there is
reason to believe that it was even
more so in the Philippine isla iwIh
where tor the first time the great
day was really celebrated by all the
people in recognition of the accom
plishment of that liberty for which
they struggled in vain for so many
years. By a happy combination of
circumstance nnd direction the
Fourth of July Raw the last of mili
tary rule in the islands ami the in
auguration of civil goverment.
Under the provisions of the Phil
ippine bill ennctod hy tho fifty-seventh
congress the great privileges
of the "bill of rights" are conferred
on the Philippine people and there
nre none who will not rejoice nt the
blessings thus bestowed upon them
unless perhaps it he a few disgrunt
led politicians whoso dire predic
tions have been disproved and xvhose
attempts to make political capital
out of the efforts of the administra
tion to establish peace have proved
a boomerang. By the provisions of
the amnesty proclamation of the
president all political prisoners in
tho Philippines were released and
tho way paved for the liberation
even of those who had offended
against society in some minor form
Advices received at the state de
partment indic.ito that the negotia
tions now being conducted at Home
by (lover! or Tuft are progressing nt
a satisfactory pace. Confronted by
tho difficult problem of supplying
priests to minister to the largo num
ber of members of his church when
the friars shall have left the islands
the pope desired to rot;iin there all
of those against whom no charge of
malfeasance in office had been
brought, but Governor Taf t, believ
ing it to be necessary as a proof to
tho Filipinos that there will bo no
further connection between church
and state and as a further evidence
that the present government is in
no way in sympathy with the hated
Spanish domination with which tho
friars were associated, has advised
tho pope that all those friars who
have left their parishes and all those
in the city of Manila shall be re
moved from the islands. The en
tire reasonableness with which the
Vatican has received the represent
ations heretofore made by Governor
Taft warrants the assumption that
ultimately tho negotiations will end
in n manner satisfactory to all con
cernod and the purchase of the
friars' lands and their being opened
np to settlement will murk the bs
ginning of an era of small land
holdings in the Philippines which
will, it is safe to presume, result as
beneficially as did the passage of the
Homestead law in the United States.
On Thursday evening the presi
dent left Washington for Pittsburg
where he delivered two addresses.
In bis oration Mr. Roosevelt for the
first time put into practice the pol
icy which I outlined in these letters
a week ago and the .announcement
of which was sent out by no othor
Washington correspondent until
July 2J, I refer to his ardent advo
cacy of Cuban reciprocity with a
view to ho educating the public
sentiment as to remove all serious
obstacles to the ratification of the
reciprocal treaty with Cuba which
he will submit to congress ns soon
as the short session convenes. It
was on June 25 that Judge Long of
Kansas explained to me the presi.
dent's intentions and I understand
that in every public speech which
the president will make between
now and t lie time Congressconver.es
next December Cuban reciprocity,
which in the president's mind is so
closely allied with national honor,
will receive marked attention and
exploitation. In Minnesota where
the republican platform is some
what indefinite m its handling of
this subject Mr. Roosevelt will
dwell on it with special emphasis.
On the d:iy before the president
left Washington Secretary Cortel
3'ou ashed me to make it cl-ar to
your readers that the president was
t-'oing to Oyster Bay to secure a
much flT'cled rest and that he will
bu.oejelv appreciate the cfTnsnlortt-ti-'ii
(if those public and private citi
zens vho permit h iin to spend his
snort vacation in comparative re
tireineiit uilh his family. S-'cre-t

ident will leave Oyster U.iy for the
New E igland stati's where he will
pay a number of visits and he will
then go west, not returning to
Waibington until Oct. 8, the dale on

Where Woman Belongs.
Man has argued that woman's
placo is exclusively in the home and
that she has no right to trespess
upon the prerogatives of business or
professional life; that these do
mains belong to man. It is absurd.
Both mnu nnd woman belong where
they are capable of doing the most
good, nnd the question of sex should
never enter into the argument what
ever. '
The ancient idea that woman's
mission was to marry and to rear
children exclusively, and to refrain
from engaging in pursuits for which
her nature shows she is fundament
ally qualified is fast becoming obso
lote. There is" not a department
in life where the influence mid judg
ment of woman is not wlmted. nnd
where if. would not be beneficial.
Indeed wo might justly say tl at
whatever concerns man, must con
cern woman equally, and that de
partment thnt lacks the influence of
woman is bound to become stagnant
ninl is in just that degree imperfect
that it lacks the feminine influence!
The world needs more of the fem
inine influence in business, in poli
tics, and in out common courts of
justice, that these issues of life mnyJ
be, elevated and exalted to a more
perfect state. The introduction of
the feminine into these departments
of life would purify, inspire and
perfect them ; and they will remain
one sided, top heavy and perpetual
ly out-of-gear, until tho feminine
unites with the masculine elements
in begetting a higher and a holier
creation. llav. Francis E Mason.
Jltency of Justices.
The ooui't of common pleas of Ve
nango county has decided in regard
to the question as to how far a jus
tice of the peaco may aot in collect
ing a claim that a letter from a jus
tice to the defendant, advising him
that n bill against him hail been left
in his hands for collection and if the
3ame was not settled within five
davs a summons would be issued,
tb'eroby adding costs, is not suffic
ient proof that the justice actod as
agent of tile plaintiff prior to tho
institution of the suit and so was
disqualified to hear and determine
the cause to warrant the court in
sustaining an excoptiou to the reo
ord upon thnt ground.
Home one maliciously and reck
lessly inclined threw a Urge stone at
the hand organ of a son of sunny
Italy last Monday evening while he
was engaged in his peaceful occupa
tion In front of the Hotel Fauchere.
The stone missed the organ and
struck the man on the lower jaw
inflicting a severe wound. Who
ever tliew it should have been ar
rested and punished. Such acts are
a great discredit to the town and the
perpetrators should have a salutary
lesson.
James T. Mnlhearn of Linsford
and Jacob B. Z srn of Legighton,
Carbon county, are waging a warm
contest for tho senatorial nomina
tion over there. It is conceded that
the nominee shall come from that
county and a nomination is equiva
lent to an election. Both these gen
tlcmen are not unfamiliar with of
fice holding, the latter having been
an associate judge and member of
the legislature and tho former has
served as county treasurer.

A Sustaining Diet.
Thse are the enorvnting days,
when, as somebody has said, men
drop by the sunstroke ns if the Day
of File had dawned. They are
fraught with danger to people
whose systems are poorly sustained ;
and this loads us to say, in the in
terest of the less robust of our read
ers, thnt the full effect of Hood's
Sarsnparilhi is such ns to suggest
the propriety of calling this medi
cine something besides a blood puri
fier and tonic, say, a sustaining
diet. It makes it much easier to
bear the heat, assures refreshing
sleep, and will without any doubt
avert much sickness at this time of
year.
An Original Feature.
The Sussex Register, ono of tho
most nbly edited and interesting
papers which comes toour sanctum,
lust week contained the following
kindly notice which is duly appreci
ated :
'The Milford Press is fortunate

Every week tho pastor of each vil
lage clutch contributes a short let

ly do not come into regular news
channels, but are exceedingly inter
esting even to those not affiliated

Gutting' Bills Out of Committee.
A short time ngo Senator Quay
made a motion that the committee
on territories be discharged from the
further consideration of the bill for
ndmitting to .statehood the territories
Oklahoma-, Arizona nnd New Mexico,
and that the senate proceed to the
consideration of the bill. This bill
passed the house Inst spring and hns
been In the hands of the senate com
mittee without action for about two
months. Objection being made, Mr.
Quay Intimated that he should feel
it his duty to refuse unanimous con
sent to the considetntion of any
measure until his motion was dis
posed of. The question whs finally
settled by nil agreement that the bill
should bo reported on December Kith
nnd lhat the report should be unfin
ished business until disposed of.
This does not imply that the bill
will be passed. The probability is
that the report will be unfavorable
and will remiiiu unfinished business
until the adjournment of congress
!Warch -1, 15103.
Since The senior Pennsylvania
senator can thus force a report on a
bill held up in committee there is
another matter in which his influence
should be promptly exercised. A
resolution proposing nn amendment
to the federal constitution providing
for the election of United States sen
ators by the people passed the house
some time ngo but has since been
pigeon-holed by-the senate commit
tee. If Senator Quny can secure a
report on this resolution he will have
done the country a far greater ser
vice than he bus done it in the matter
of the omnibus statehood bill.
The reasons why he should do this
are quite ns cogent as those for his
action on the statehood bill. In 10(10
Senator Quay's state convention
adopted a resolution in favor of such
un amendment, and Instructing the
state delegates lo the national con
vention to ofl'er and support such a
resolution appears to have been offer
ed but it fell down lu committee and
never regained its feet. In the ses
sion of 1001 Quays legislature passed
a joint resolution favoring the adop
tion of nn amendment providing for
the election of senators by the people
and joining other states in calling a
convention in accordance with the
federal constitution for .the pur
pose of proposing it. It further
appointed a committee to confer with
congress and the legislatures of the
other states with the object of secur
ing i such an amendment. Both
measures were approved by Governor
Stone.
If Senator Quay has any regard for
the mandates of his convention and
of his legislature ho should at once
apply the tactics employed in dealing
with the statehood bill to the amend
ment providing for tho election of
United States senators by the people.
Such nn amendment bus far greater
merit than the scheme for giving
to three new states with a population
less than a million equal power in the
senate with the states of New York,
Pennsylvania and Illinois, with a
population of more than eighteen
million. Honesdute Citizen.

The Same Old Story.
J. A. Kelly relates an exueri-
ence similar to that which has hap
pened in almost every neighborhood
in the United States and has been
told and retold by thousands of
others. He says: "Last summer I
had an attack of dysentery and pur
chased a bottle of Chamberlaiu's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Reme
dy, which I used according to direc
tions and with eutirely satisfactory
results. The trouble was controlled
much quicker than former attacks
when I uswd other remedies." Mr.
Kelley is a well known citizen of
