RAILROAD RATE
BILL TO HAVE JOKER
United States to Build Largest
Bi f tleship in World —
Slaughter of Moros
Washington, 1). C., March 29,190(5.
Washington fog and dust still involve
the r«*te bill. The. measure ln>-
reached the point where the whoh
question is involved in the right of
judicial review and in this provision
if anywhere will be concealed the
joker thet is to make the measure ac
ceptable to the railroads. For the
benefit of the uninitiated, it may be
said that the prospect now is for an
agreement to an amended bill that
will provide for a more or less court
review. The object of the friends of
the measure will be to frame this re
view provision so that it will not in
terfere with the obvious intent of the
law and make the delays possible
under the bill more than offset any
benefits that the measure might con
fer. The debate seems certain to run
some weeks longer. The object of
the floor manager, Mr. Tillman, will
be to get the bill through with as
plain an amendment as possible.
That the bill will be amended seems
a foregone conclusion. The presi
dent has not opened his mouth on the
subject of any of the proposed amend
ments to the bill and it is not thought
that the white house will be heard
from till the measure as it passes is
sent to the president to sign. Then,
if at all, the president will express
his opinion and whether it will be
favorable or the reverse, there will be
little room to speculate. The com
ment on the measure is sure to be
both entertaining and enlightening.
Naval officers as a whole are pleas
ed at the sanction of the naval appro
priation bill by the committee, not
only because it gives a little short of
$100,000,000 for the execution of the
various plans that the department
has on hand but because it also pro
vides for at least one battleship that
will rival the English Dreadnaught
in size and effectiveness. There is a
provision in the bill for one battle
ship of not over $10,000,000 that will
be all that even the navy department
could desire. For this amount, the
experts calculate, the department
can build a battleship of over 19,000-
000 tons displacement that will carry
an armament heavier than the En
glish leviathan and that without any
question will be the most formidable

priation for the hull alone is $6,000,000,
which is $1,600,000 more than has
ever before been appropriated for a
battleship in the American navy. The
bureau of construction and repair will
have to draw entirely new plans for
the ship as (he plans of the 14,000 ton
and the 16,000 ton battleships will be
departed from in almost every par
ticular.
The remainder of the naval pro
gram is liberal. Provision is made
for three destroyers at $750,000 and
the secretary of the navy is given sl.-
000,000 to expend in submarine at his
discretion, in view of the good tar
get work thatf he submarines recent
ly accomplished in their practice
cruises, it is quite possible that the
whole of this amount may be used.
Submarine work has not yet been re
moved from the domain of the extra
hazardous, but there are an abund
ance of young officers who yearn for
appointment on this dangerous duty
and it is likely that a number of them
will be given a chance to gratify
their desire for dangerous service in
peace time.
While the work of defensive naval
construction is going on, there is an
appropriation made also for a new
dry dock that will equal the Dewey
in size and will be retained in Amer
ican waters. The proposed head
quarters of this dock will be Solo
mon’s island, in the Chesapeake, but
though this spot affords unusual fa
cilities in the way of deep water and
a good channel, the dock, once it is
completed, will be available for use
anywhere on the Atlantic coast,
where there is water deep enough to
submerge it and where the exigencies
of the occasion call for its presence.
It is stated that an agreement on
! the statehood bill is in sight. This is
more or less cheering news, not that
it makes any vital difference wheth
er or not the territories that have
been waiting years for admittance to
the union are admitted just at this
time or not, but that agreement fore
shadowed has the show of reason and
decency about it and consequently
reflects the same qualities on the con
ferees. It is said that the question of
a referendum vote will b% referred to
New Mexico and Arizona and that
there will be some concessions in the
Oklahoma section on the subject of
local option and the like. The bill
certainly will not come out of confer
ence sos a week, but it is some satis
faction to know that an agreement is
in sight.
Just on the eve of his departure for
Japan, Ambassador Luke C. Wright
came out in an interview on the sub
ject of the recent slaughter of Moros
in the Philippines. He says that
from several years experience of the
breed, that was the only way to han
dle them. Of course if there were
women and children killed in the
tight, that was a regretable occur
ence. But he says the fact remains
that there is only one thing to do
with ths Moros and several other of
the uncivilized tribes and that is to
show them the strong hand in such a
way that it cannot be mistaken for

The president has recommended to
congress the enactment of the laws
reeommened by the waterways com
mission with a view to saving Niag
*
ala Fails. He says in effect that the
appropriation of the falls for water
power has gone so far that there is
serious danger of the great senic
wonder being spoiled for spectacular
purposes altogether. He therefore
recommends the passage of a law
that will hold at least three years,
while this government can becoming

Canada for the permanent preserva

JOURNAL WANTS BICX?)
MAN FOR GOVERNOR
Stone Mountain, Ga.. April 31,
1906. —Editor News-Herald: It ap
pears from an item in the Gwinnett
Journal that the editor of that paper
is making a desperate, nevertheless
a very feeble effort, to make it ap
pear that Hoke Smith ought to be
made governor because he is a big
man, and that he stood for certain
well known principles, but so far as I
was able to see he did not mention a
single one of them, therefore I have
not one word to reply to that part.
Now, it depends on what he terms
the qualifications of a big - man
whether Mr. Smith or Mr. Russell is
the one. If he looks at the career of
Hoke Smith while a member of the
cabinet and views carefully the in
fluence that he used in behalf of the
south, noticing particularly the num
ber of negroes appointed to office in
place of white men, the reduction of
cotton to 4 % cents per pound, and
indeed the devastation of peace in
the entire south, surely the gentle
man would retrace his steps and join
the Russellites again, as he calls
them, and walk in the path of right
eousness.
It is an admitted fact there is noth
ing against the character of Mr. Rus
sell, and nothing against his career
as a judge. He walks uprightly and
fears no evil, administering justice
to all alike when he is carted on to
do so. So we might not term him a
big man, but a good man, on whose
principles the common people are
standing, and they will give him
their hearty support. My communi
ty is solid for Russell.
The supporters of the other candi
dates remind me of fW lady who, years
ago, had what she thought was a
loving and devoted husband. In his
sickness she eared for him oh! so
tenderly, but at last the sad hour
came and the hand that touches and
stills all human beings touched and
filled his feeble form. She had him
buried beneath a weeping willow and
decorated his grave immensely. But
at last another came along and
claimed his former place, and like
all widows, she clasped her arms
around him and soon two souls were
made one. The next day she de
stroyed the flowers on the grave of
her former husband and had the
weeping willow cut down. On in
quiring what was the matter she re
plied, “I have just found out that I
never had a husband before and am
ashamed to know that I have ever
been the wife of such a man.”
So if Hoke Smith or Clark Howell
is elected their advocates will be
ashamed of them and will declare
they have no governor, but if Russell
is elected they will think they never
had a governor before. His being in
office all his life makes him the more
fit to occupy the governor’s chair.
I say for the people to rally around
Russell and hold high the banner of
the common people.
If you wish to be in a twist
Just vote for Hoky Smith.
If you wish to he in the dark
Just vote for JJncle Clark.
If you wish to be on a hustle
Just vote for Judge Russell.
