L i4 iv X THE WASHINGTON LETTER, President Roosevelt, by Hip Ann stand be bus taken in support of adequate anti-trust legislation, bus accured tlic c-finj)! t inn l'yi'"''!,"'"- "f tin- antt-trust program outlined in these letters lust week. In order to accomplish tliis end, Mr. Roosevelt has Miked very plainly to the lenders of his party. He has stated the un varnished fuets and in some In-tanees him seriously offended, by what they term his "brutal frankness," the men who will linve the greatest weight in the republican national eonvention. The president states liis position very pimply, llesnys, "I have done my duty by the whole people ns I Imve seen it find I am quite prepared to stand or fall by their verdiet." In this connection no one denies that the attorney general will find bis position materially strengthened in the further prosecution of the unlawful aelsol the great corporations known as trusts. In view of the president's position on the subject of trusts it lias become a well recognized fact, in the inner circles of the party, that all that element which believes there should be no legislative interference with the business interests of the country w ill work assiduously against Mr. Roose velt's nomination for 100 1. As to the trusts themselves it is a common expression that they lane "no soul" and it is equally true that they have no polities. With Mr. Roosevelt as the republican candidate and a man whom they would describe ns "safe" at the head of the democratic ticket, their Influence and t'neii extensive campaign contribution would go Into the democratic fund. The democrats realize this fact and such men as Arthur P. Gorman, Richard Olney and others, whose standing witli the capitalists of the country is unim peachable, are being earnestly, open ly, discussed as probable democratic candidates. Always trimmers, the democrats will have no hesitation in trimming their sails to catch the trust wind in the next election. The friends of the president are discussing the situation very seriously and all believe that the people will have to choose, either at the republican national convention or at the polls, between an honest and fearless advo cate of the rights of the people and a servant of the corporate wealth of the country. It is regarded bs practically certain that Mr. George H. C'ortelyou, now secretary to the president, will be chosen by Mr. Roosevelt as head of the new department of commerce and labor. Some of the president's sin cerest friends regard the appointment as unwise from a political standpoint. They say that with the powerful influences which are known to be against him in bis own party, Mr. Roosevelt ought to "play politics" and appoint to this important position a man who would carry considerable political influence in one of the doubt ful states. To their argument Mr. Roosevelt replies that bis brand of politics is thht policy which he believes will make for the greatest good of the people No one question! Mr. C'ortelyou's ability and the presi dent knows that he will administer this important oflice in the interests of the people. He is in perfect accord with the president on the subject of trusts, with which the new depart ment Mill have much to do. Kven under the provisions of the Nelson amendment providing for publicity of corporate statistics the ollicer in charge will have the widest latitude and with an administrative ollicer w hose sympathies were w ith the cor porations the law might be made wholly useless. No one denies the correctness of this argument, although some fear that when it comes to the point of votes in the convention Mr. Roosevelt's fearlessly bnticst policy w ill not win. The ratitici.tion of the Alaskan treaty without niuteiiul opposition bears out the prediction made in these letters, and made in the face of Associated 1're.s predictions to the contrary. Under the provisions of the treaty, the president w ill appoint three commissioners who will meet w ith an equal number appointed ly Great Britain and, if possible, s. ttle for all time the di-pute in regard to the Alaskan boundary. On every mooted question a vote of four to two will determine the proposition. Jn the evi-nt that sm-h a majority cannot In' obtained and the comud-.-ioii di- ill,-.-, c enly no result v ill If attained .'cl ti e plt-ent status of the que.-tio.l w I! lint have been affected. Humor i S !: . t t'.e pi-- !'!. lit V. i.l l'l 1 ot. I on the commission Secretary Hoot, Senator 1vlge and Senator Turner of Washington, Hut unofficial announce ment has been made. The dispute1 in regard to the actual houndarv between Alaska and the Rrilisli possessions arises from a re dundancy of definition in the treaty negotiated by Great Britain and Russia in I s-jr. Not content with defining the treaty at three mafine leagues from tide-water the framers of the convention added certain physical felines fit the location of the boundary which subsequent in vest i gat ions ha ve proven non-existent. While, in the mind of the Jiest au thorities in this country, there is no question that the intention of the negotiators was to place the boundary at three marine leagues from tide water, the interposition of these de tails has complicated the issue and at least made an arg uncut on w hich Great. Britain hangs her claim. Senator Morgan's opposition to the Columbian treaty, under the provis ions of which convention the i'anaii a canal is to be built, has thus far delayed its ratification although the senate has expended an entire day listening to Mr. Morgan's negative argument. The venerable senator from Alabama is determined to defeat the treaty and announces tint he is prepared to talk on the subject for t only-four or forty-eight hours if necessary. This opposition is also holding up the Cuban treaty as Mr. Morgan has made it known that be will debate that convention, if neces sary to prevent tlv ratification of the foinier. Under the circumstances, a special session of the senate is predict ed by Senator Lodge and others, but Senators Aldrieh, Hale and Allison are certain all can be accomplished before the 4th of March. There is no immediate prospect of a settlement of the statehood blockade and it, is perfectly evident that both parties to the contest are "binding" so that it is difficult to accurately jjuage the situation. A crisis is ap proaching however". The committee on post ofliees and post roads has attached the Omnibus bill, in the form of a rider, to the post office approprlatirn bill and present pros pects are that the final test vote will come on that measure. The chair will rule the amendment out of order and an appeal will be taken. The opponents of statehood assert that Senator Quay will lose on his attempt, to overrule the chair.

Cunningham, a noted astronomer of Swarthrnore, Pa , asserts: "The principles opon which our Revolutionary forefathers founded the grandest government in tho history of the world, Is the principle upon which the advocates of woman suffrage base their claim for the ballot. I tborouly believe In no taxation without, representation." Another champion for woman's right to the ballot is tbesnporinten 1 ent, of public instruction of Tioga county, Pa., Prof. G. W. Merrick, "I agree w'ith Plato there ghould be no. sex in government ; their anion in that relation- relation seems to me as necessary as in the family re lation there should be no divorce."

Chocolate Snow Bills in Prospect Townships whiuh may have been congratulating themselves on their escape from snow bills may now be in a different situation. Would it not pay in the end to remove some of the stone and rail fences along highways, which cause drifting, and substitute wire? There are some places where t bis could be done with great advant age to taxpayers. The additional school tax which will be tnatle neces sary if the pending bill passes will cause citizens to look around and see if in some way unnecessary expenses cannot be avoided, and snowdrifts In many localities would be very easily dispensed with by the use of wire for fencing. A New Department The president's private secretary, Mr. Cortelyou, as has been known for some time, is to be secretary of the new department of Commerce. The bill providing for this department is now a law, and work of organization will go on rapidly. Among other bureaus which are to be Included under the new department are the bureau of corporations, bureau of labor, the lighthouse and steamboat inspection services, the bureaus of navigation "and of standards, coast and geodetic survey, the immigration service, the" shipping commission, bureau of statistics of the treasury de partment, bureau of foreign commerce of the state department, census bureau and lish commission. An important feature of tbt new secretary's work will be in the nature of trust regula tions. IJy the terms of what is known as the Nel.-on amendment authority and power is given the new bureau of corporations to require specified returns from large corporations, and provision is made for publicity as to their aftairs to a certain extent.

New Agricultural Building Secretary of Agriculture Wilson is making preliminary arrangements for the erection of the new building of agriculture authorized by the act approved by the president on the 9th instant, which appropriates tliOO,- 000 for the new home of the depart ment of agriculture. The plans and specifications made for this building contemplate an expenditure of f'2,- 000,000, but as congress has enacted that It shall cost but l,Gn(),0l)i), they will have to be considerably modified Tne building will be erected some where near the old building, but the exact site lias not yet been determin ed upon. The architects designing the plan are Lord & Hew lett, of New York. No more satisfactory appro priation has been made by congress than this provision for a new build ing for agriculture. The department of agriculture has become to be recog nizee as one of the most helpful und necessary branches of the government in the interests of the jieople. The situation in congress is said to be entirely satisfactory to the republi can managers of the house and sen ate, and It is stated thut there is no cloud now visible which will iiece.-i-tate the railing of an extra session. Considerable legislation is being en acted, and congrcss'has a habit, any way, of getting dow n during the last few days ot the short session and do ing about two months' work.

Inmakingjhis visits he carried a picket riflo, and after making the usual enquires ns to real esta:e, horses and cattle would ask : "Do yon own a dog?" Tile c-nii -non auswor was "No Sir." "Whoso dog is that outside?" "I don't know." "Do you want it assossoj?" "No, sir." "Then," producing bis rifle, "I'll kill him," remarked the assessor. "Hold on," is tho answer, "Don't kill him, I'll pay tho tax." In this way a large number has been added to tho list. Fish Disappearing The atate fish commission is in receipt of information that flsh are disappearing in nearly all the state streams and that unless something is speedily done there will soon be none but migrating fish in the inland rivers and small streams in this state. The commission at present is unable to give any definite reason for this condition, the theory, how ever, is said that, it arises from the use of semes. It isi-aid that, fully one hundred seines are constantly at work within a limit, of thirty miles of Harrisbnrg and the catch, aimnnting to tons of black bass, crappio and salmon, taken contrary to law is sold openly in tho markets.

Railroad "hoodoo" has claimed its third Judge, John W. Simonton, President Judge of the Dauphin county courts, died on Thursday from an illness contracted after he had taken up the now famous railroad case from Monroe, He was about to sit in equity proceedings and hear this case for himself when he was stricken with pneumonia, which caused his death. This is tho third Judge who has died since the Delaware matter has been before him in the conrts. The first was Judge Edwin Albright, of Lehigh ; then Judge Allen Craig, of Carbon ; and now Judge Simonton, and each had heard the case argued in part but neither one had reached a decisir n. It is said those who believe In boodoos that the third death breaks the evil spell. The railroad oase will be taken up by the Pennsylvania Supreme court in March next. The paper book of the plaintiff will be the largest ever printed in Monroe. The injunction was issued to restrain the Franklin National Bank of Phil adelphia, disposing of 1190,000 of railroad bonds.
