o n 1 A - -A W -A cJ VOL IX. MILFOIU), PIKE COUNTY, PA., FRIDAY, APIUL 8, 1901. NO. THE WASHINGTON LETTER While (Mounts to the St. Imis convention arc lieing instructed for Parker, Gluey, Hearst unit others, and many are bilking of (.ionium as a possible candidate, there In hut one man thought of hy the republican delegate for Chicago, and lie in the President. His nomination hy aeela nintion is now assured, for practically tliere Ik no opposition in the ixirty. A I! that remains to tie done after the nomination is for the voters to go to the hallot lxix. In vnin have the democrats, in and out of Congress, tried to pierce the republican armor; not a wnm enn be found. On the w hole tlie dcmncruta in this Congress have by tlieir votes endorsed the measure of the republican iarty, while at the same time clamoring loudly for investigations, for reducing appropria tions, and having much to say nliout fraud, violation of law, disregard of precedent, et cetera. In the end they have voted for all the measures pro posed, and have lieen unable to present n solid resisting front on any question. This is a great compliment to the honesty and ability of the republican party. Indeed, things have got to such a jihss that the leader of the minority in the House, John Sharp Williams, announces that the party cry in the coining campaign w ill be: "Anything to heat Roosevelt." A transliteration of this would lie: "Any thing to elect a democrat," and this is what may lie expected as the months roll by. Hut such an apixnl will not convince the masses; for them the President is the ideal man plain, blunt, honest; one who would sit up nights, to guard and protect the interests of the country and promote the welfare of the people. " The Senate spent most .of the last day of March in specchniaking alxiut alleged jxistofliee frauds, the :-yar pension order, the protective tariff, and cognate questions. The debate was carried on by Senators Penrose; Pa., McCreary, Ky., Dolliver,. Ia., ami I leybrrrn of Idaho. Nothing new was elicited, and only expressions of opinion were given. Mr. Heyburn doubted tiie constitutional right of one-co-ordinate branch of the government to in vestigate another independent branch, He said it is the duty of the sixvial insieetors to investigate the depart ments, and not the duty of Congress. Mr. Dolliver ably and vigorously de fended the President and Postmaster General Payne. The President wishes the postmaster general to remain where he is, and if his health permits he w ill do so. The rumors that have been in circulation that the President wanted $!0,000 to build a stable and $00,000 to refurnish the White House for the ensuing year, have been denied by him. He has never asked for any such sums. The estimates were prepared by Ool.T. W. Symons, in his "odd moments," and were not submitted to the Prewidedt. He says $:1B,(M)0 is ample to keep the White House running for another year. A pet crow at the White House predicts the . weather with great accuracy and has the weather bureau forecasts "skinned to death." It caws Just before a storm; goes to sleep if there is danger of "increasing cloudi ness," and h'n about right lively with a rising barometer. 'Use Presi dent now throws the weather map and the forecast card into the waste basket. Hundred of New England schcx.il teachers and normal pupils have been in the city the past week, and all of them shook hands with the President. The President will scud 200 marine to St. Louis to guard the ext.ition. Dr. Lindsay, the Porto Kico Com missioner of Kducution, is in Washing ton to consult with the President about fetching from that island 000 school teachers next July for two months education in summer schools. The President has promised an army trniH l.irt to bring and curry back the teachers. Congress has con-.cn ted to their fice traiHportutiou under certain restrictions. The entire cmt will be $;0,hu). The teachers will visit this city, Huston, New York and Philadel phia, and perhaps Chicago and St. Jx.ui.-i. They are enthusiastic over the propu-cd and over 400 have agreed to giveu months salary towards paying o.priis.-.,. The Panama cumd commission has left Va-hingn.u )tiid sailed f,,r the J. lliiims. Kuiitary exjicrU; w ent along. Admiral Walker thinks that it will take two months to make a prelimi nary c.Mtiiiiiiatioii.

The southern stab's do not wish to sjxire any negnxv, as they are all needed to raise the Immense cotton crop which is being planted. The proposition to inixrt 10,000 coolies meets with opposition. Senator Newlands has the satisfac tion of seeing his bill for the protection of . the Mall in Washington pass the Senate. It will lie nlTcred in the House as an amendment to some bill and will undoubtedly pass. This will block the secretary of agriculture from plac ing his new building in front of the Washington monument. His intention to encroach upon the Mall aroused great opposition throughout the coun try. In the near future the Govern ment will send here ii(arly fifty millions of dollars for which the appro priations liHve already been made, tixn new building's, bridges and other hmprovements. All property is rising in value in this citv. It is very doubtful if Judge Hwayne of Florida will lie put on trial. Rep resentative Gillett of California, Little field of Maine, and Parker Of New Jersey of the committee having the matter of impeachment in hand, have refuted to the House that in their judgment the Judge is not guilty of the crimes of misdemeanors charged, and is not liable to impeachment. This rexrt will have great weight with the House. As soon as the ixistofliee bill has lieen disposed of liy the Senate, a bill for the government of the Panama canal 7xine will lie considered. This may give rise to a long discussion and len up again the whole canal ques tion. Senator Morgan has given notice that he intends to offer a sulisti tute, and make a sicccli. And ail the world knows -what that means, a postponed adjournment, . for Morgan talks against time, or, sonio think eternity. Pointed Paragraph. Heaven isn't exclusive enough for some society people. Some men practice economy all their lives, but never learn it. Arbitration would he more success ful if men were less arbitrary. As the twig is bent the sjnall boy is Inclined to make himself scarce. A girl don't consider a man ex travagant if he spends all he makes on her. Occasionally a man's religion and all his other property is in his wife's name. If women had a vote the confirmed bachelor candidate would be left at the post. ' If a man would use the experience of others he would never acquire any of his own. The man who goes up against an other , man's game soon discovers that it isn't a game of- chance. Chicago News. Real Estate Transfer. Charles P. Renting to Milton J.

The Boarding- Season Home prospective summer guests are visiting the town looking for rooms, and appearances are auspicu ous for a good season. The advertis ing which will be gien this bectiori will no doubt niuke a material dif ference in the number of applications. ' A sul'.icient sum bus Is-vn raised to 1 ensure much more publicity than lias 'ever before been given the upper In law are Valley, and it cannot fail of result. The people have been gene rous, realizing that it is tlie mo-t elieclive method and it is expected that good returns will follow the investment. The Planet in April Mercury 'Is evening star throughout April, mid is very favorably placed during the last half of the month. He rcuehes his greatest elongation on the 21st, at w hich time be is in Taurus, n few degrees wivt of the Plciadiw, in deg. distant from the sun, and 1(1 deg. north of him. He does not set till after 8 o'ekx-k, and, as lie Is very bright, he should lie seen without difficulty. He should pnqxiss in brightness all the fixed stars, except IxThiips Slrius. Venus is morning star hi Pisces, but is not very conspicuous, since she is south of the sun, ami risw not more than an hour liefore him. She is 1 o0 million mil- from the earth, and only alxiut one-quarter as bright as she Is at her Is'st. Mars Is evening star, but Is now so near the pun that he is practically invisible. On the 1st he sets alxiut an hour after the sun, but only half nn hour after him on the ,1llth. lie is in conjunction with Mercury on the 8th, but Ixith planets are tixi deeply Involv ed In the twilight to lie well seen. Jupiter is morning star, but is not visible till the latter jiart of the month, when he gets far enough away from the sun. On the 2A1 he is in conjunction with Venus. The .two planets are only half a degree ajxirt, and they will Iks well worth looking at. Saturn is morning star in Capri cornus, rising alxmt 4 a. in. Cranus is in Sagittarius, and (Mines to the meridian at 4 a. m. on the 2tli. Neptune is in Gemini, and Is visible only in the early morning. Pert Paragraph The 'Honorable Welnter Davis is again blowing off. The first serious setback which the Hearst bixjm has received is its advo cacy by George Fred Williams. It is not a good sign for the Hearst boom that the republicans are so enthusiastic over its possible success. As soon as the census of the 1'hilip pines is announced Spain will know the number of islands which she lost. The mothers of Japan recite dally to their children tho names and deeds ot the great In their country's chivalry. If tliere were any democrats in Ohio, the little republican factional trouble might be an encouragement to them. The factions of the District of Colum bia democrat! continue to disagree and knife each other-an accurate exponent of the national body. Mr. Rryan continues to whale away at Judge Parker, but that gentleman has not yet apiwrently noticed the existance of the ixserless leader. "Ls this a constitutional govern ment?" shrieks the Atlanta Constitu tion. We would suggest either a cold liath mornings or some gixxl spring tonic. t There is not so much grafting in Florida as in some other states, despite the large democratic majority. Unlike the apple the orange tree is always budded. Since Oil. Biyan lias lost his case in the matter of the ISennett will under which he claims $50,01)0, he now announces that he does not want tlie money if Mrs. Rennett objects. The New York contemporary which asserts that tlie war experts are all at sea Is a little off. A gixxl many of them are occupying plush covered chairs in very substantial buildings. Mr. Rryan's voice has undoubtedly great carrying capacity, and he is a trained elocutionist; but it is also becoming evident that Mr. Hearst's money is likewise doing some loud talking. It lxiks as though the Russian attempts to clear the Port Arthur entrance are time wasted. They will simply give tlie Jiqw another chance to eat a little more tire and block up the entrance again. How would it do for the democrats to combine with the prohibiti'mists? This would possibly drive one or two democrats out of the party but from re-eiit promises of reform we judge it would at Ustst delight Tammany. The First Pish Food Suckers, we mean the cata.-tomoid, not the biiiT join, (liwsis kind, nothing ever kills them, upix.ur to have sur vived the oild and ice this vi inter and to come up smiling, same as the other kind, in large mimlx-rs.

I notice In last week's Press where one eorresKndent kicks against entertainments at the close of a school term.

Rrother Warren of Sandyston, who has been a teacher for years, always kicked against closing exercises, and I don't believe he has changed his miud yet.
