That report never reach’ ed the House, however, for Speaker Cannon called in Chairman Gardner of the committee and read th« riot act to him for allowing the bill to come out of the committee, and it re mains on the House calender. That is the way labor has been treated by the Republican leaders. How do the labor people like it? Not the Riqht Question. "The bravery of young men.’ said Rear Admiral Buhler at Atlantic City, according to the New York Tribune “is a fact, that I shall never cease to marvel over. Did you ever hear of hope too forlorn, a risk too over whelming, for the young men of the armies and navies of the world to undertake? ‘If only th eyoung men's wisdom equalled their bravery! But this is impossible. Someiimes 1 think boys have so much braverv there Is no room in them for anything else. “I used to know a bov who was brave enough, but reckless, careless, extravagant. He accumulated a great quantity of debts. "His father gave him a talking to one day. “ ‘Suppose,’ he said, ‘that I should be taken away suddenly what woujd become of you?’ ‘‘‘I’d stay-here.’ the boy answered, smiling. ‘The question is. what would become <>f you?’ ” Ordered by the President to Visit His Home and Talk Over the Situation of the Party of “Great Moral Ideas.’ Washington, D. C.. Aug. 1.—Just as he has dominated everything else connected with the Remiblican party since he became president of the United States. Mr. Theodore Roose velt has orlered Speaker Cannon, Chairman James S. Sherman and Sec retary Loudenslager. of the Republi can congressional committee, to visit him at Oyster Bay and talk- over the situation of the party of “great moral ideas” in this congressional fight.

He is the boss of the Republican party and no set of men know it bet ter than the speaker and the congress' sional leaders of the Republican par ty. He is going to have in the cam paign book just those things he wants in and he is going to eliminate just those things that he wants out of it. He is going to tell Jim Sherman that if he wants any of the half million dollars left over from the last presi dential campaign, now in the hands his henchmen, Cortelyou. that will have to dance to the Roosevelt music or he will have to wrestle for himself. That s what the genial Jim does not want to be compelled to do. and be will lis ten to the song of the Rooseveltian boss and go away from Oyster Bay with a plethoric purse.

It easy one, to labor leaders when everything was Roosevelt way with a swin 1 ' that was dazzling, but when the sober second thought comes and they ascertain that the labor men are i" deadly earnest, they get scar ed and com * down like Scott’s coon. The recent order promulgated by the President that all officers of the army and the navv must report all viola tions of the eight hour labor law, that h been on the statute books since 1893. made bv contracts hand ling government works, is an eleven th bon*- repentance. The labor peo ple have for years been trying to get such order out of the Republican ad ministration. but without avail. The contractors have been violating the law and laughing in the faces of the labor people who have complained to the officers in charge of the works, the l?vtter telling them that they were not there to plav detective for the labor people. This latest order of the President now compels thi officers to play detective and report all violations of the law, and it is simply a sop thrown to Labor in the face of all the grievances complained of bv the labor people. Will this thing fool the labor people and make them face about in their determina tion to get even for all the insults that have been flung In their fac$*s in the past dozen years by 'the powers that b c > in the national capital? Well. I guess nit. It is the general impression here and is substantiated by the talk of those who seem to be in authority in labor circles, that they will go ahead with the program thev have manned out to »>!ay for even. They are going after the scalps of a good many members of the Republican party in the present Congress and if all signs do not fail there will be many familiar faces missing in the Sixtieth Congress. One of those faces, it seems likely, will be the Hon. Chas. E. Littlefield, of Maine, The labor people are after him and several more members of the judici ary committee of the House, for the part they played in defeating the anti-injunction bill at the last ses sion of the House. Thev also are after the Republican members of the committee on labor who refused to vote on and get the eight hour bill out of that committee. The bill finally did get out of the committee simply because the Democratic mem- bps of the committee one day caught the Republicans napping and voted it out of the committee with a favor- Referring to our navy’s submarine boats, a description of the “Octopus,” the largest of four boats now build ing. will prove interesting. The Octopus is 105 feet long, and will have a sped on the surface of 10 1-2 knots per hour, and 8 1-2 knots when running submerged. She will carry four large torpedoes, any one of which could blow a battle-ship to atoms and destroy her complement of six or eight hundred souls. The contract for this boat calls for a service or endurance test in the open sea of twenty-four hours dura tion. at high speeds after which she is to remain at sea. self-sustaining, for three days. The vessel is to be able to sink to a distance of 200 feet below the surface of the sea. It will he seen that this under water torpedo-boat will he a formid able craft, and on her stealthy cruises will he a terror to the leviathan bat tle ship or cruiser. The features of the submarine boat which make it invaluable as a war weapon, is its ability to approach the enemy unseen, and. in the unlike ly even of being discovered, its pro- tectio from hostile fire afforded by the fifteen or twenty feet of water intervening between the top of the boat and the surface of the water. The submarine of the latest type costs between $300,000 and $500,000. With its torpedoes it can blow to atoms a first class battle-ship, costing ten or twelve million. In the recent debate in the Senate on the naval appropriation, a propos ed appropriation authorizing a mons ter battle-ship to cost $10,000,000 or $12,000,000 was under discusron. Senator Tillman said: "We have read of battles between whales and sword-flshe and we know how much trouble the great leviathan has in battling with a school of sword-fish. That simile occurs to me as an illus tration of the inutility, the useless- nest. and the dangerous condition into which a great ship like this might be if .a lot of torpedo boats, or submarines, or other destructive agencies, or even smaller vessels having equally good guns that could pierce her armor or pierce her hull, should be her adversaries.” which Standard Oil already controls.

The fact that the Republican sec retaries of the treasury, with th#* evi dent approval of the President, en courage this close connection with the Standard Oil interests is porten- tious of favor of this plan of finan cial centralization in the highest Re publican quarters, and will require jealous watching on the pan of De mocrats and honest Republican voters to thwart and prevent it.

Chattanooga. Tenn.. July 28.—South Carolina troops had the unusual hon- of being the first on the grounds today at Chickamauga. As one of the r#* "ular army officers at the station remarked. “South Carolina is always first In everything.” The two specials were combined just after Chattanooga was passed and at 1:15 the historic battleground was reached. Of course it rained. The troops. 403 of them, reached the sta tion just as the shower began to come down. The volunteers had some regular army experience and the few regulars hingin^ around th« station laughed at the dripping Palmetto boys as they climbed the hill in a drenching downpour. But the camp is only about 200 yeards from the sta tion and the Third South Carolina regiment got busy with the tents and covering at once. Just 15 minutes later the First Ala bama regiment arrived and about an hour later the Virginia and Louisiana troops came in. But witji the exceo- ♦’ n of the few companies or regu lars sent here several weeks ago. South Carolina was "farthest at Chickamauga” today.

After the dinner the Englishmen went out for a walk along the em- hankment. The sea was rough. The sm-ay splashed over them. Soon thev saw a statue, and as they neared this statue it nodded to them gravely. “ ’Did you see that statue nod?’ said the first Englishman. "‘I certainly did,” the second said. “‘It is this confounded Capri wine,’ the first said. “‘Well,” the second said, ’we had better get back home to bed before we ar * run in.’ “So. ashamed of themselves, the Englishmen went home to bed, and when, amazingly fresh when all things were consid red. thev sat down to breakfast next morning their waiter said to them: ‘Did the gentlemen feel the last night’s slight earthquake shock?’ ” Methodist on Compulsory Saluda, July 28.—The on education at the Cok triet conference in session '■ oorting with gratification the creased interest in educational Education. committee sburv dis- here, after in- mat- rom* conference movement Some pa ters. refer d with regret to the fact that too many of the white children of the State are n -.'er-iine school.
