WASHINGTON LETTER I
Speaker Cannon Will Not
Adjourn Congress
TLATT AM) 0DELL CONFER
Grover Cleveland Will Never Again
be a Nomineo for the Presidency.
Haunt will Succeed Morgan.
Gen. B.eye at the Capitol
Minister Varilla has received ad
vices from Panama informing him
that the canal treity will be ratified
by the .Tunta and returned to Wash
ington without delay. There is no
opposition to the treaty on the
Isthmus. When the ratified treaty
reaches Washington, it will be sent
at once to the senate.
General Reyes, the Colombian
representative, lias arrived in Wash
ington. If his credentials ere in
order, he will be received by the
president. His purpose of saving
Panama to Columbia is, of course, a
forlorn hope. His government's
threats of raising 100,000 to fight the
Uni ted States are not taken seriously .
Probably his mission will end in an
attempt to secure a ruonoy indemni
ty for Columbia and to force Panama
to assume a pro rata portion of
Colombia's debt. In fact the first
work of Sir Mortimer Durand, the
new British ambassador, who has
just arrived here, will be to press
the claims of English bondholders,
that Panama assume a fair share of
Colombia's debt. The fact that the
representations will be made to our
government, shows that the de
pendent status of Panama is recog
nized by England.
Whon it was announced in the
senate that Senator Hanna was to
succeed Senator Morgan as chair
man of the Committee on Inter
oceanio Canals, the Aged champion
ot the Nioaraguan rout rose and,
in a speech which lasted the greater
part of two pensions of the senate,
made a most bitter attack on the
president and on his policy in Pana
ma. Before he finished his sarcastic
remarks, the senator had to request
the privilege of speaking from his
seat. By deol tring that President
MoKinley favored the Nicaraguan
ronte, he got Ih a dispute with Sen
ator Hanna, who showed that Mo
Kinley had no prefarence in the
matter. Senator Morgan declared,
"Hereafter Nov. 3, 1903, will be a
saint's day, to be celebrated by all
filibusters who destroy government
in the interests of peace."
Senator Nowlands' invitation to
Cnba to join the Union was opposed
by Senators Lodge, Hale and O. H.
Piatt, who pointed out, in the de
bate, that such an invitation would
be looked upon as a command, that
it would expose this oountry to the
suspicion of desiring to annex Latin
American territory, and that it
would weaken the hands of the
present administration of Cuba,
tinder which the island had enjoyed
snob remarkable prosperity. Many
interesting and important points
were brought out in the discussion.
Senator Hale said that he believed
that the men who were listening to
him would live to see Canada and
the United 8tnt.es united. Senator
Lodge expressed the same sentiment,
by saying he hojied all the European
Saps on this continent would return
to Europe as did Spain's. Senator
riutt, of Connecticut, the author of
the Piatt amendment, declared that
this government exercised uo pro
tectorate over Cuba, and that Cuba
was not our ward. Quoting Mo
Kinley, he aid, "We are neighbors,
we must be close friends." Senator
Teller said that without entering
into the debate, ha wished to stute
positively that Cuba was in no way
& dependency of the United Plates,
and that any intermit nn:al lawyer
Would declare micli a contention
ridiculous. Senator Newlauds arg
ued the trade advantages Cuba
would gitiu by union, and said that
his resolution considorud merely
Cuba '8 welfare, that the acceptance
of the invitation would be d-".!iJ.-J

speaker of the house declared that
congress shall not adjourn until
action is taken on the mensure for
which it was convened in extra ses
sion. The president supports Speak
er Cannon. In the house, Mr. Wit
liams, the minority leader, attacked
the republicans booauso they were
keeping congress in session without
doing business, and demanded that
action bo taken on his resolution
calling for reciprocity negotiation?
with Canada Mr. Payne, chairman
of the Ways and Means Committee,
pointed out that the present was not
a proper moment to deal with Cana
adn, as she was still smarting nudor
the Alaskan Boundary decision. '
Formor President Grover Cleve
land will never be the nominee of
bis party for the presidency. He
made this emphatic declaration in
an fipen letter, in which he says,
"In full view of every consideration
presented, I have not for a moment
been able, nor am I now able to open
my mind to the thought that in any
circumstances or upon any consider
ation, I should ever again become
the nominee of my party for the
presidency. My determination not
to do this is unatterable and con
elusive." Much of the support given
Cleveland will now go to Alton
Brooks Parker, chief judge of the
Court of Appeals of New York.
Harmony between Senator Piatt
and Governor Odell of New York
has been establishad through the
efforts of President Roosevelt, who
summoned them both to the White
House for an exchange of views and
a general clearing op of misappre
hensions. There had been much
rivalry between the two men for the
oontrol o' the state machine and the
quarrel threatened the- harmony of
the republican party in a state which
has long been regarded as necessary
to whichever party is to win the
national eleotion. Senator Piatt is
to remain the leader of the party,
but the governor is to take a more
activo pirt in the management of
party affairs. Both the Governor
and Senator have declared for Pres
ident Roosevelt's re-election and fee!
confident that he will carry the state
next fall.
The treaty ceding the Isle of Pines
to Cuba has been ratified by the
senate. The Treaty of Paris left
this island for future determination
as to its ownership. In return for
naval and coaling stations in Cuba,
the United States government con
firms the title of the insular repub
lic to the Isle of Pines.
The politicians of Illinois, who
have been booming Speaker Cannon
for the vice presidential nomination,
have received a set back by a state
ment issued by the Speaker's secre
tary, which says, "As speaker of
the House the full mead of his am
bition, so far as publio offioe is con
cerned, is satisfied. Even if he
would be an available candidate, his
nomination is not to be thought of
for a moment." He added that the
Speaker had no desire for the place
now occupied by Senator Frye,
presidont pro tem of the senate.

THEY GOTJIIK DEER!
Jerry Greening IVum! illy
the Sholiola Creek
MAY HAVE DIED OF FRIGHT
The Lead Flew in Bhowers but the
Deer Ran on Until a Stray Shot
Killed It "Jerry" Not Even
Rewarded for His Find
Not long ago a party of hunters
from an adjoining county, possibly
from some "dale," was up In the
back woods of Pike looking for deer.
Finally their efforts to start one were
successful and then the fusillade
began. They fired 28 shots at it but
the frightened deer still ran on and
they gave it up as a phantom. Jerry
Greening happened to be in the
neighborhood, and wandering what
the bombardment meant walked up
in the direction of the noise. Think
ing perhaps a buckshot war wes on
between two parties of hunters he
went cautiously up the Sholiola creek
and finally came on n dead deer,
lying partly in the water, which had
been hit by a single shot in a vital
part. Supposing It might have been
the cause of the incessant shooting he
took the deer and propped it up in a
standing position behind a tree, and
went on in search of the firing line.
He finally ran across one of the party
and inquired if he had seen any
game. The hunter replied that him
self and party had started a deer but
that it had escaped them. Jerry
told him the deer might not be far
away and suggested that they look
for it down the stream. "The hunter
requested that he be allowed to go in
advance so that he could have a shot
if they found the quarry. Going out
a short distance Jerry halted and
said, "there, there Is the deer." The
hunter anxiously inquired "where,
where .is he." After some effort
Jerry made him see its head project
ing from behind the tree and he
instantly fired, but the deer did pot
move, so he fired again with the
same result. They then walked up
to the deer when it was disclosed that
neither of the shots had taken effect
beyond cutting a swath through the
brush. The hunter sounde d his horn,
Rll up to date sportsmen besides guns
carry knives, horns and other neces
sary accoutrements, and soon the rest
of the party appeared on the scene.
Of course they claimed the deer, and
without so much as even saying
thank you, or inviting Jerry to take
a drink out of the creek, they shoul-
lered the game and left. Probably
Thanksgiving day they sat around
the festive board, graced with veni
son surrounded by their families and
friends and recounted the pleasures of
the chase and pointed to the result as
evidence of their deadly skill with a
shot gun. Honesty and courtesy
among hunters is proverbial, and no
hunter is more conscientious in these
respects than Jerry, but the manner
In which those sportsmen gobbled up
that deer is a rude shock tojjls belief
In the universal application of those
principles.

TREATY WITH NEW GRANADA
Unpublished Correspondence Made
Public y the Senate
The Senate, in executive session,
has made publio the correspondonoe
submitted by Fresiuent Polk in 18 17
in relation to the treaty of 1843 be
tween the United States and Now
Granada (now the republio of Co
lombia). It is stated that these
papers have never been published.
They consist of protocols between
Benjamin A. IXdlack, charge of the
United States at Bogota, Rnd Manuel
M. Mallarlno, socreUry of foreign
affairs for New Granada. There is
a reiKirt by the latter official point
ing out the advantage of the treaty
to the United States in view of the
attitude of Great Britain, which he
doclnros, "unveils a preconceived
and long meditatod intontion of
grasping the most valuable mercan
tile spots of America, putting the
competition of the United States out
of the question and dictating her
will as a law iu all matters concern
ing the consumption of foreign
commodities."
In a commuicatlon to Secretary ol
State Buchanan Mr.Bidlack discusses
the control of the isthmus, in which
hesaya that Secretary Mallarina had
said that if New Granada "ceded to
the United States the right of way
across the isthmus he presumed the
United States would guaranty to
New Granda the isthmus, or at least
as much of it as was required for
the construction of a canal or a
railroad upon the most favorable
route."
Mr. Bidlack, in transmitting a
draft of the treaty ,to Seo'y Buchanan,
had the following to say regarding
the transit across the isthmus :
"With regard to the right of
transit and free passage over the
isthmus, which appeared to me to
be becoming of more and more im
portance every day, I have only to
remark that J have procured the
largest liberty' and the very best
terms that could be obtained.
"I could not obtain' those terms
without consenting to guaranty the
integrity and neutrality of the terri
tory ; and, in fact, it seemed to me,
upon reflection, that in order to
preserve the rights and privileges
thus ceded it would be both the
policy, the interest and the duty of
the United States thus to enter in
to an obligation to protect them.
The guaranty extends only to the
isthmus, and anything like a gen
eral alliance Is carefully avoided."
Vast Dairy Interests
Those attending our courts have
probably noticed that the President
Judge makes sjiecial inquiry of con
stables as to whether they know of
any sales of oleomargerine or reno
vated butter in their bailiwicks. Thla
in done In accordance with the pro
visions of the act of assembly, and
when the vast and growing dairy
interests in this state are considered
farmers will note the importance to
them of having the law obeyed. The
sale of oleomargerine or renovated
butter is in direct conflict with the
interests of dairymen.
According to the latest figures
obtainable the farm value of dairy
products iu this state are exceeded
by but one state in the Union, aggre
gating nearly 36 million dollars per
ionium. According lo the last census
there were 32.GOO farms in Pennsyl
vania which derived their principal
income from the dairy, In 1!)00 the
state bad nearly a million cows pro
ducing nearly 600 million gallons of
milk in one year. This 30 million
dollars coming from tho dairy inter
ests of the state is a vast sum and It
is to foster the Industry and protect
con.sumei s against the title of illegal
dairy products that the food commis
sioner is taking such active hteps.
He aks the cordial cooperation of
the agricultural class and all citizens
generally In his efforts to enforce the
dairy and food laws of the common
wealth, regrilei of the social or
political stanuing of those who make
themselves amenable to the laws.

HOW TO JAKE MONEY
Entertain Summer Hoarders,
and Truck Farming
IMPROVE YOUR PREMISES
The Cost of Improvement Will Be
Nothing Compared with the Har
vest Which will Be Reaped
from the Summer Boarder
Piko County is an agricultural
region, giving a large surplus farm
and garden product, but lacking
within its borders, sufficient towns
and cities to oonsnme what Is grown.
Too far away from the largo city
markets to allow competition with
tho more favorably looatod truck
farms of New Jersey and Long
Island, the question uppermost in
the farmer's mind is how to in.
crease the home demand for such
products as he can grow. Can this
be done to any appreciable extent,
and how? It can bo done, but not
without Intelligent and persistent
effort. As to the ways, there are
many, but none so near at hand as
the Summer Boarder. How many
farmers In Pike county has given
this share of the question serious
thoutght? How many have con
sidered the fact that they are located
just the right distance from and
easily reached by the hosts of a large
City, who go yearly much farther
away to obtain, for two or three
months, just such oomforts and
luxuries as Pike county farms can
supply? What has been done to the
North, South and East can be done
here. But the same effort that has
been put forth by neighbors in
Orange aud Sullivan counties in
New York, and Monroe oounty in
Pennsylvania, must be put forth
here.
If it is necessary to make a few
changes and tepairs, and to oloan
and brighten np the premises, for
the purpose, the cost of doing so ia
not an outlay, but an Investment,
one which is going to pay a large
dividend. The people to be accom
modated are not visitors j they are
going to pay for the accommodations
given and pay well. The Summer
Boarder will pay liberally for good
servioe, but does not want poor ser
vice at any prioe. Clean, wholesome)
accommodations, well oooked food
temptingly served, with polite and
intelligent attention, are the things
they require and insist upon. Giva
them all of these and charge accord
ingly. They expect to pay. If they
find a little fault, show an interest
in their complaint and try to lm
prove along the lines they suggest.
That- will be simply a matter of
business. It does not imply that
they think they are better than you
are ; it simply means they want a
little better service or attention, and
it will bo a matter of dollars and
cents to you to give it. Let them
have their way. The season they
are with you only three or four
months of the year is your harvest
time. Work I You have eight or
nine months of the year when yon
will be alone and can do as you please.
Do not be afraid of going to a little
trouble and expense. Clean up the
premises, especially in the near
vicinity of the house ; have a lawn
and keep it mown j fill up your old
privy-vaults and cess-pools and pnt
in a sewer. Put water in the house
and have a bath room and flush
closets. If you haven't running
water available put up a tank. You
can do it if you try. They do it in
other places, and what Summer
Boarders can get in other places
they must have here or they won't
come. And then the cost of doing
so will come back to you with inter
est. You, yourself, will also have
the benefit and comfort these things
bring. And onca having them you
will wonder how you ever got along
without them. Don't be afraid of
employing a little extra help j your
wife will appeciate it.
