THE WASHINGTON LETTER.
"There Is absolutely nothing in
the democratic claim that the repub
lican party cannot unite g id their
promises in reg trd to tie? trust and
the Panama canal," said H-nator
I'oraker, whom I met nt the tempor
ary White House on Friday. "i
the contrary, I believe that congress
w ill warmly support the president in
bis desire to secure legislation which
will enable the government to curb
the tendency "f certain trusts to ad
vance prices Ivynnd reason. I am
not prepared to say that all trusts
are pernicious an 1 I have never heard
the president make such a claim.
The sugar trust, for instance, has
materially reduced the price of sugar
to the consumer and at the same time
has employed n large number of
American workingmen at good
wages. The Standard Oil company
has reduced the price of oil to the
consumer to the minimum. It
stands to reason that institutions do
ing a large business can alYord to em
ploy experts in all their departments
and with their help reduce the cost
of production to the lowest figure and
at the same time realize the greatest
returns from the by-products. The
beef trusts, on the other hand, has
brought public condemnation on it
sell, and as a result the federal gov
ernment is now prosecuting it in the
courts. If Hie attorney general
deems the present law inadequate to
enable him to accomplish proper
supervision and restraint over the
trusts, congress will stand ready to
uphold his hands by the enactment
of legislation which will prove
elllcicnt."
Referring to the canal, Senator
Foraker said that, in so far as he
had been informed, everything possi
ble was being done to facilitate it
construction and that he believed
there was nothing but demagoguery
back of democratic claims to the
contrary. The senator frankly ad
milted that there was a time when
be feared that the democrats might
gain control of the house at the fall
election but staled that now he had
every confidence that, such would
not be the case. He. regarded the
democratic handling of the Philip
pine question as bungling and offen
sive to the people. He said that the
remarks of Senator Spooner, on the
last day of the session, represented
the position of nine-tenths of the peo
ple of the United States, who stood
ready to repudiate the condemnation
of the army for political purposes.
Since my last letter great interest
has been aroused by the report that
the president has selected Represent
ative Littlcfield of Maine to draft an
anti-trust law which will meet with
the approval of the president and of
the attorney general as well as with
tliat of Mr. Litllefield himself. This
report has not been confirmed and
Mr. Littlcfield has declined to alhrin
or deny it, but it is generally regard
ed as being very close to the truth.
It is anticipated that Mr. Roosevelt
w ill foreshadow the necessity of such
a law in his message to congress,
much as he did in his last message,
and that Mr. Littlefield will then
introduce a bill which the president,
in conversation with the leaders of
the party, will support. There is
undoubted necessity for such a law
and it is deemed likely that the law
which Mr. Littlcfield will present
will receive I lie support of many of
the greatest financiers of the coun
try. As Mr. Roosevelt intimated in
ids previous message, one of the
greatest dangers of the trusts is over
Capitalization, and lie has frequently
expressed the belief tivit Were the
iiil'.iirs of the trusts made public, this
tendency would lie overcome, at
least, to u large extent. S ane of the
leading financiers support Mr. Roose
velt in this view and regard with the
gravest apprehension the day when
"the water will l- squeezed out of
trust stocks," us they express it.
Tiiey say that such an event, were
it to come suddenly, Would precip-
it.lte a panic of llllprecedellied
proportions and that if federal legis
lation can he ti-e.l to prevent unwar
ranted i.itLuiou of stocks ii will make
for the riiianci-.il pro-pcrity and sli
biiity of the count ry. The enh tuce
meni. of prices is regarded as by far
the le-.-or evil, particularly us it is

i,Hlt i'i""'itiy that view is iosi,,gl
! ground for the republican leaders
h ive seen fit to give the president's !
civil service record a leading place in '
the republican hand book. As a
matter of fact, the people are coming j
to realize more ami more that civil,
service reform makes for clean gov-'
eminent and an economical adminis
tration of the public funds and there
Is little doubt but that they will sup
port Mr. Roosevelt more enlhusiiu
tically because he has never swerved
from his convictions and has been
energetic and consistent In his efforts
to remove from the executive depart
ments In Washington the last trace
of the "spoils system." Refore leav
ing for Oyster Hay, Mr. Roosevelt
cause 1 the civil service commission
to Issue two orders, one providing
that no employee of the government
shall bo promoted except on the
recommendation of his chief and that
political influence is not 10 be con
sidered in making promotions; the
other providing fortheestablishment
of examining boards in each depart
ment to select that class of employees
known as "laborers," merit and gen
eral qualification to be the only con
sideration in their appointment.
This removes the last class of em
ployees from congressioal domin
ation, and hereafter there is reason
to believe that the members of con
gress will he freed from one of the
most exacting requirements which
has heretofore attached to their
ollleial positions, that of securing
federal positions for their more
i nil lieu tal constituents."
(ireat interest attaches, in Wash
ington, to the statement of Senator
llurton of Kansas, made nt Topekn a
week ago, in which he said that,
had thirty live republican senators
come to the beet sugar senators and
said: "We are gol ig to pass that
bill," meaning the Cuban reciprocity
bill, "they could have done so."
Senator Burton also said: "There
tire not fifteen republican senators
out of the tifty-four who are in favor
of that present bill, at hetrt." The
charge Is made that either a number
of senators played the part of traitors,
appearing to take sides with the
president when they were really op
posed to his policy, or Senator Bur
ton is vastly mistaken in his state
ment and there is some talk of a
"round robin" reipiesting the Kansas
senator to make good his allegation
by the publication of the names of
those whom he claims encouraged
the beet sugar senators to hold out.
Women and Wages.
Hon. Carroll 1). Wright, national
commission of labor, said in a re
cent address at Smith college on wo
men's industrial condition: "Com
petition, profit, ami business success
are far more powerful than any senti
ment or any feeling of chivalry. The
lack of direct political influence con
stitutes a powerful reason why wo
men's wages have been kept at a
minimum."
Crop Report.
The corn crop as a whole in the
principal corn states has made very
favorable progress during the past
week but- in New England and New
Yo -k is very backward.
Winter wheat has experienced
generally favorable conditions and
is now being harvested.
The outlook for spring wheat
continues promising.
Oafs-are also in a promising con
dition. In certain sections apples look
w ell nod less complaints of dropping
are made but the report from Now
York is not so favorable.
The hay crop in the west will be
generally fine.

Hawking and Peddling. -The
act of June H, 1901, relative
to hawking and peddling In boroughs
and townships in this commonwealth
seems to have been overlooked by
some desirous of engaging in that
business here. Its provisions are
simple and direct. The county treas
urer is authorized to issue a license
to any person to hawk, peddle or sell
within the county clothing, dry
goods, notions, crockery and tin
ware other than their own manu
facture irr product, and the fee is
regulated by the character, of
the vehicle. Failure to procure
the license subjects the offender to a
line of not less than $100 nor more
than $500 or to imprisonment for not
less than threo months or both at the
discretion of the court.
This license does not supersede the
necessity for obtaining a borough
license also. Those interested should
bear these provisions in mind and
save themselves trouble.

The President on the Trusts.
The president's attitude on the
trust question is attracting unusual
attention. Representative Little
field of Maine, it is announced, will
introritiefl n hill providing for effect,
ive trust control which will have
the support of the atlminstra
tion. The president, regards tho
trust question as a thoroughly live
issuo a problem ready for immedi
ate solution, and it if stated that lie
can be depended upon to push the
measure with all the strength of his
administration. His earnestness in
the matter is not to be mistaken,
and if congress concludes likewise
there Is good prospect, for the enact
ment of anti-trust legislation next
winter.
In undertaking this course the
president is, of course, antagonizing
powerful influences. Ho knows
that the groat business interests re
gard his attitude with misgiving,
and be is frank in saying that he
has no intention of keeping "bands
off," but at the same time ho tells
those about him that he will never
support any legislation which can
possibly bring about anything in
the nature of a business panic.
"Alice of old Vincennes."
Another enchantingly interesting
story Is delighting readi rs of the
Sunday North American. "Alice of
Old Vinceniics," by Maurice Thomp
son, Is both thrilling and pathetic, a
word picture of life of the early
settlers In Indiana, which portrays
the lights and shadows of pioneer
days with the skill of the expert.
Love making in those days was apt
to be interrupted by the sudden crack
of the rifle timl the pinging of bullet
on the door post. They were stirring
days of danger, stern hardships. and
frequent tragedies.
Through this border life, with its
shooting affrays and fierce fights,
Alice of Old Vincennes moves like a
being from a world of her own. She
is a fascinating character to those
who compare her with the modern
girl. And yet her prototype could be
readily fouud in those strenuous
pioneer days. Here Is a synopsis of
the opening chapters of the book:
Alice Rousillon is introduced to
the reader. She is described as a
tall, lithe girl at play beneath a cherry
tree with her foster brother, Jean,
the hunchback. They are interrupt
ed by Pere Beret, the parish priest.
Gaspard Roussillon, the adopted
father of the children, a stalwart
French immigrant, had taken the
two waifs, and had given them a
home. The girl was of Protestant
parentage, but her guardian, a de
vout Catholic, had refused to Inter
fere with her reigion, much to the
regret of the good priest.
After chiding the children for their
rought play Pere Beret was told that
a quantity of alcoholic liquor had Just
reached Vineennes. He made no
sign of approval or disapproval, but
as he sat on the dixirsill of his home
thinking of it, a letter was handed
him.
The continuation of the story will
be found in the Sunday North
American.

BRIEF MENTION.
Born, Tuesday, July 15, to Dr.
and Mrs. W. B. Kenworthcy, a
daughter.
A severe storm swept over the
southern portion of the state Tues
day. Hail and in some places high
winds damaged crops and fruit.
A. T. Searle. Esq., of Honosdalo
has been appointed on the executive
committee of the state bar associa
tion and Lnird II. Barber, Esq., a
delegate to the American bnr asso
ciation and Homer Greene, Esq., an
alternate.
Down in Trenton, New Jersey, a
police justice has just held that a man
should not be arrested for addressing
improper remarks to a woman on
the streets after 1 o'clock a. in. be
cause no good women are on the
streets after that time. He Is a
Solomon.
Hon. L. II. Barber, ex-congress
man, is making a strong fight for
the nomination for judge in Carbon
county. Hon. Allen Craig, it is
said, notwithstanding his ill health.
which is now slowly improving, will
also be a candidate. Jus. T. Mul
honrn, Esq., reports say, will bo a
winner in the senatorial contest.
The transfer of the Kleinhans
property on Ann street to Dr. Chas.
W. Roberts of Scranton took place
Tuesday and he will now fit it up
for the purpose of giving chemical
baths. lie states that his prospects
are already flattering for a successful
business and that will mean much
for the general prosperity of the
town.
Mrs. Revoyre lias had the tele
phone pole in front of her premises
painted, which improves its appear
ance. It may be remarked that if
all telephone and telegraph poles in
the borough were kept free from
posters, placards, etc, and similarly
treated to a coat of paint it would
add considerably to the general ef
fect. Several houses in town are filled
to overflowing. The Vantine House
notably is doing a great business
and now has over sixty people. Ho
tel Soitz is also more than full, the
Bluff House has all its rooms taken
and the Metz house has a large num
ber of guests. Other houses, too,
are well patronized. The season
looks exceedingly promising.
A failure having been observed in
the arrival of trains over the Milford
and Matamoras railroad it is perhaps
due to explain that the school tax
collector of Port Jervis, with a stony
heartedn .-ss and disregard of public
comfort which could only exist in
a callous ollleial, has chained one of
the engines to a post in Port Jervis
because it neglected to contribute its
share toward the support of the edu
cational system of that village.
Will a suffering public endure such
indignity?
Hon. W. H. Kirkpatrick of Easton
has accepted the invitation of the
board of trustees of Lafayette col.
lege to act as its president during
the absence of President Warfleld,
who has gone abroad until next full
on account of his health.
William H. Pratt, convicted in
the oourts of Choster county for the
murder of his wife, has been grant
ed a new trial because a juror had
previously said, "That man Pratt is
gui'ty and he ought to be hanged."
A man in this county not many
years ago was refused a new trial
under similar circumstances.
The Erie advertises an excursion
to New York via Newburg for July
29. The trip down tho historic
Hudson by daylight is a most beau
tiful ride. West Point can be
plainly seen and the view of the
palisades is magnificent. This will
be a rare opportunity for a splendid
outing and at a cost which is com
paratively nothing, only $2.
There lias been some little quiet
grooming among the democratic
leaders for the speakership of the
house should that body through any
volcanic- disturbance become demo
cratic next year. In this connection
the Honorable J. D. Richardson be
lieves that lie would be entitled to
that honor. He did his boot, he
say ha did, to stir tip feomothing
scandalous for a campaign isjue
he did his best.

a decision In the case of Common
wealth vs. Charles Hazen reversing
the quarter sessions of Pike. The
"pinion was written by W. W.
Porter, justice. This is the case in
which the Blooming (Jrovo park as
sociation had Hazen arrested for
killing a deer on its premises. lie
was convicted and fined by C. O.
Billings, Esq., and on an appeal the
court here, Judge O S. Purdy pre
siding, reversed the findings of the
justice and declared certain sections
of the act incorporating the park un
constitutional. The superior court
sustains the constitutionality of the
act of Incorporation and sends the
case back here to be tried on Its
merits as to the guilt or innocence of
the defendant In killing the deer as
alleged on the premises of the park.
Funeral of II r, Crawford.
Thefuneralof CharlesR. Crawford
of Matamoras took place last Sunday
afternoon at 2 o'clock at the home
of his daughter, Mrs. William Per

largely attended, Mr. Crawford be
ing one of the oldest residents of
that place. Rov. Mr. Suoop, pastor
of the Ep worth church, preached
the funeral sermon, Pretty flowers
decorated the casket. The remains

"four and twenty blackbirds baked

costs, his pie would have cost bjm
just 1210, besides indefinite oosts.
Probably in those ancient times
there was no League of American
Sportsmen to look after the welfare
of black and other insectivorous
birds and so he escaped.
Peddling Without License.
Uriah MoCarty, a salesman repre
senting a Port Jervis firm of mer
chants which has been sending a
wagon here for some time to take
orders for goods, was requested
Monday to produce his license. As
he did not possess the paper he was
taken before Burgess Wolf and paid
the license foe, 7, and 12 costs. He
was the same day arrested and tak
en before Justice H. B. Reed charg
ed with violating the act of 1901 re
lating to hawkers and peddlers in
not procuring a county license as
provided by that act. On account
of informalities in the complaint
