PENROSE'S USE
Demands to Know Why Senate
Allowed Archbold to Escape
Telling the Truth.
Continued From One.
nnt a question of favor, hut a question 1
of far:.
Letters Will Not
Please Roosevelt.
I mi notenga god in defending Mr.
Roosevelt personally. and I shall later l
print letters w hich will not particularly ■
please Mr. Roosevelt, but I am engaged
in giving the American people the ex- I
act facts in regard to the political cor- I
ruption with which they are oppressed. I
If Senator Penrose stated that the '
$25,000 sent him by .Mr Archbold was
for Mr. Roosevelt and not for himself,
he stated what was not true I have
waited several davs for Senator Pen
rose to tell the truth, but he is appar
ently unwilling to do so. and I am going
to tell the truth for him, as I prom
ised tn do.
The $25,000 sent Senator Penrose in
a secret certificate of deposit of Mr
Archbold was for Senator Penrose's ;
own use in his personal Pennsylvania
campaign.
Penrose Acknowledged
Archbold Check
Senator Penrose acknowledged re
ceipt of the $25,000 certificate of de
posit and referred specifically to Mr.
Archbold s letter of October 13, In
w hich the certificate was Inclosed Fur
thermore. Senator Penrose signed the
acnowledgment as chairman of the
Pennsylvania state committee, and
wrote In doing so upon the official sta
tionery of the Pennsylvania state com
mittee
Other Standard Oil contributions
were solicited and employed by other
committees In the campaign of 1904.
but this particular certificate of de
posit was secured bv Senator Penrose
for his own use In his own state, and
I have the documents to prove this.
If Senator Penrose should tell any
further falsehoods I shall be glad to
disprove them, but "sufficient unto the
day Is the vil thereof "

NIHILISTS BLAMED
FOI? 30 STAB WOUNDS
IN DEAD MAN’S BODY
PORTLAND. ME.. Aug 30 Russian
nihilists are believed Io have murdered
Goodman Glkner. the Haverhill, Mass
man who was found dead In the freight
yards here Tuesday with his body '
pierced with 30 stab wounds The po- i
lice declared today that they had se |
cured a clew which led to the theory i
that Glkner was suspected of being ini
the employ of the Russian secret serv
ice.
Glkner came to America from Russia
five years ago. after his brother had
been killed by nihilists in St. Peters
burg Gikner often complained to his
Intimate friends, the policy say. that he
was being followed
The murdered man formerly was al
member of a revolutionary society in
Russia. In some manner he aroused
the suspicions of hfs fellows. His broth
er who was also a member, was found
stabbed to death in his bed one morn
ing with a note of warning scrawled In
blood pinned to the bed clothing
Although Gikner often spoke to his
Intimate friends of his fears of assassi
nation. he would never seek police pro
tection. He declared that this would
precipitate his death.

Refuse to Believe Him Out

BERLIN, Aug 30. While the kaiser
is slowly recovering from the lllne-s
which alarmed all Germany, the news
conies from the Imperial palace of the
friendship and sympathy of the royal
family for Mis Robert Goelet, who is
said to be dying in Paris It is remem
bered that one of William's last acts
before falling ill was his presentation of
tile first-class Order of Merit to the
captain of Mrs. Godet's yacht, the Na
ilovna. on which he was an honored and
intimate guest during the great regal -
i t at Kiel Expressions of sympathy
foi Mi-. Goelet have been made by sev
eral members of the kaiser's family
The Bcrllnese refuse to believe that
th«- emperor is out of danger It is
stated, foi instance, that he was allowed
to leave his bed for the purpose of at
tending to urgent state affairs
It is also announced that the kaiser's
tender throat has so much bettered that
lie is able to swallow food and to talk
from which it would appear that the
conditions must have been even worst'
tlian were at first acknowledged
The rheumatic pains in the neck are
■also reported to have abated and the
fever has dropped, but even with these
improvements the emperor will not be
permitted to leavt t'assel for a few days
at least.
So that, all in till, the Germ tnh f.-ats,
which are always lively whenever any -
tiling Is the matter with the Hohenzol

the fatal malady of his father, have
some ground tor existence

SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
By JAMES B NEVIN.
Howard Ennis, of Baldwin county,
who succeeds Carl Vinson in t,he house
of representatives, has something of a
reputation as an eyelash finisher in all
of his political races.
The contest between Ennis and Vin
son was one of the most strenuous of
all the legislative wars waged in Geor
gia this year. Both are fine young fel
lows, and both have hosts of friends.
It was merely a question in Baldwin, it
seems, as to which could rally the more
friends to the polls on August 21.
When the ballots were counted, it
was found that Ennis had put it over
the former speaker pro tern by the nar.
row' margin 0f.5 votes
A short time back Ennis ran for may
or of Milledgeville, which high and
mighty office he failed to secure by the
almost heartbreaking shortage of 7
votes!
Ennis confidently expects to tie his
opponent next time he tries his for
tunes in the political game—either that
or beat or get beaten by 1. .
Tinsley Ragland, chairman of the
enrolling committee, was re-elected to
the house without opposition.
Ragland was the hardest worked man
in the last house—the chairman of the
enrolling committee always is—and he
expects to take things relatively easy
next time, as he is not going to have
that enrolling chairmanship any more,
even if it be tendered him on a silver
waiter!
There is- more hard work and less
spectacular glory in being chairman of
the enrolling committee of the house
than in most anything else one can
think of.
Ragland is a 200-pounder. anyway,
and is not cut out for hard w ork in July
and August.
With all the politeness and circum
spection imposed upon those whospeak
no-evil of the deceased, it may be set
down as a fact that the Moi e-the-cap
itai-to-Macon endeavor has been laid
to rest forever.
Above Its grave, where soon the grass
will grow long, and tall, ami green, lias
been written "Requiescat in pace;”
While the movement lived, it lived in
clover, but when it died, it died in all
i spots simultaneously.
Macon is a gram! old town, and it {
simply reeks with erand old people and
grand old things, but it is not going to
be made Georgia's capital!
While the delegates to the state con
vention all agreed that they venerated
'and esteemed Macon with a veneration
ami esteem that could not be expressed
in words, mere words, still, and but. and
also nevertheless and notwithstanding,
they believed Atlanta ought to remain
the capital!
Not that they loved Macon less, of
course, but that— —
A distinct and decided addition to the
next house of representatives will be
Erank A. Lipseombe. who comes from
Clarke.
Lipseombe is a young man of the sort
Georgia should be only too glad to send
to the state legislature. He is a fine
business man, an extremely likable
chap, and safe and sane on all ques
tions. Eor two terms he made the city
of Athens one of the best of aldermen,
and he is sure io take immediatelj a
high stand in the house of representa
tives.
Charles S. Northen will be re-elected
to his present position of secretary of
the senate without opposition. •
The senate of Georgia would seem to
be'mighty queerly framed-up, anyway,
without Northen part and parcel of it.
He has been there so long, and ha#
served so well and acceptably, that he
would be a reckless person, indeed, that
undertook to grab that job away from
"Stump."
'if "Stump" didn't seek the job—
w hich, as a matter of fact, he does, in
a repressed and extremely gentle fash
ion—it likely would seek him.
Thomas S. Eelder made a remarkable
race for attorney general. He received
more votes than any candidate who had
active and aggressive opj csition, and
he carried more counties.
Out of a total of 146 counties. Eelder
rounded up an even 140—which was go
ing some, countywise.
His popular vote went over 115,000,
appr. xi-r itely 60,000 ov< r ids opponent.
Naturally nowadays Eeider’s friends
are pointing with ptidv to ills reio-,1.
and notifying folks around and about
that it would be a good idea to paste
those figures in their hats anti remem
ber Eelder -they may hear from him
again.
J. T. Deese, of Cochran, legislated
himself out of office when he prevailed
upon the legislature to create Blecklev
county by taking off a fine, large slice
of Pulaski.
Deese might have been re-elected
to the house from Pulaski, it seems-,
had it not been for .he fact that th
new territory going into the county of
Bleckley embraced Deese’s home base.
Being thus left out in the cold and
feaiing that he might be but dwelling
in tiio suburbs of Pulaski's affections,
anyway, in the circumstances, Deese
retired from the race, and a now man
will occupy his seat next time:
They do say. however, that the grand
young county of i-iiecklci. once it gets
its hat on straight, surely will send
Dei so hack to the house of representa
tives.
