j Shortly before President McKin
ley's departure for the west,1 a dele
gntinu. of colored bishops, clergy
men, and so on, called to ask him
to appoint more negioea to office.
In reply, the President recalled a
list of important offices held by
colored men, enumerating the
Register of ihe Treasury, the Re
corder of Deeds, and eight or ten
others. The colored brethren were
forced to admit that they had been
pretty well cared for, but the spokes
man said. "But, Mn President,
there is the good old Methodist
Church. Don't you think 'that
ought to receive some recognition?"
"Why." respondend Mr. McKin-
ley quickly, and with a pleasant
smile, "the Methodist Church has
the. President. What more cari be
asked?"
Letters from the civil service au
tnorities in Manila say the Filipino
women are intensely interested in
the prospect of holding government
office. J The idea is an entirely new
one to their-class. and the prospect
of being able to make a good living
on their own account is exceedingly
attractive". ,There were some 600 of
them in Manila alone who are anxi
ous to be. examined, and there is
every likelihood. that the govern
ment will have all the clerical force
it requires.

Talk or Testing the Stats Revenue
Act.
Wilmington Bpcctai, 7th, to Raleigh Newi
and Observer.
It is learned upon what is consi
dered good authority that able coun
sel in Wilmington have Reen em
ployed to resist the enforcement of
the present revenue law on the
ground that its m .nner of pasnage
by the last General Assembly was
in conflict with section 14, article 1
of the constitution. It is claimed
by counsel employed that reliable
information is in hand that when
the bill eamo up for second reading
in the Senate it was weighted .down
with thirty-six amendments and af
ter it went back' to the Houee many
of the amendments were concurred
in and others rejected; that even
when the bill came back to the Sen
ate as amended it was only lead one
time and passed one reading nnd
was afterwards ratified. If this in
formation is correct, leading lawyers
say the whole revenue act is invalid
as the Supreme Court of North Caro
lina has several times decided that
unless a bill of this character passed
three readings on separate days and
the nays recorded in the second
reading, the bill is void. If this
opinion is correct the revenue will
be derived under the act of 1899.
I,lcut-(loT. Turner Tell About It.
Raleigh Correspondence Charlotte Observer,
To-day your correspondent had
an interosting chat with Lieutenant
Governor Turner, ' President of the
Senate, about the new revenue act
of 1901. Mr. Turner said : "The
bill passed the House andcame over
to us. It passed ths second leading
in the Senate ly an aye and nay
vote and then 45 amendments were
put on. It passed its third reading
also on the call. It went back to
the House. That body refused to
concur in the Senate amendments
and asked for a committee of con
ference. This was appointed. It
made its report, recommending that
the House concur in 36 of the Sen
ate amendments and that the Sen
ate recede from several of them.
Tbe report was adopted. It was
my belief that the amendments were
so material that they sbould have
passed their three readings on roll
call on separate days. I called the
attention of some Senator to its mat
ter, but the term was up, it being
the day before adjournment, and
members anxious to get away, so
nothing was done. It may be that
the courts will be called en to settle
the question, if a formal point is
raised. There will be two questions.
First, did the bill pass its readings
properly, that is, were the. amend'
ments not of sufficient moment, ma
terial alterations, to make their
passage, on roll call, on three sev
eral days, necessary under the terms
of ihe constitution ? Second, in
case this is true, does the bill -stand
as it passed the House? One side
will of course contend that there
were no supb. material altertiAtiops
as to require the aye and nay vote.
The courts may bold that it stands
as it passed the House, leaving the
taxes much higher, as the, Senate's
amendments were all conservative.
So what-can the public gain now by
an opening of the question?, It
does not seem to me as if itwas to
tbe interest of the publio t taake a
point. I don't believe the failure to
pass by roll-call the amendments
will destroy the whole .bill." u
would appear from this to be good
policy to let well enough alone. V

Washington Letter.
tVmTTfTTTVVTmTTfv'Tv'Te
Washington, D. C.May 10, 1901,
Well, the Hanna banner has been
raised, and the Hanna boom for the
republican nomination forPresi
dent in 1904, is on the road. It
will strike many as having been
very fittingly started in London,
from whence Hanna's two admin
istrations as brevet-President has
been so strongly endorsed. Senator
Hanna was in Washington when
Perry Heath's London interview
launching the boom was published.
He denies being a candidate for
President, but he does it so jovially
that everybody can see that he is
tickled almost to death with the
idea. No one who knows the rela
tions between Perry , Heath and
Hanna and those between 'Hanna
and Mr. McKinley will believe that
the Heath interview was a surprise
to'either of the other two men, and
there is little doubt that the full
power of the administration, through
the army of Federal office-holders,
will be exercised to push the Han
na boom along and make his nom
ination possible, unless the republi
can press attacks it so viciously that
its impracticability will be made
plain. That is what democrats
fear. No democrat has been found
since the boom was started who
does not sincerely hope that Hanna
will get the nomination, Demo
crats wish him to get it, - not only
because they - think he would be
easy to beat but because they would
enjoy beating him more than any
other man that could possibly be
nominated, . The Heatb interview
is in reality a feeler of the republi
can pulse, especially of the editorial
pulse. So that it depends on how
it is received by the republican edi
tors whether the Hanna boom will
be withdrawn or pushed.
Representative Latimer, of 8. C.,
who is a candidate to succeed Sena
tor McLaurin, is in Washington on
business. Speaking of S.'C..' poli
tics, he said r 'Jobn ' McLaurin
has been speaking in the State in,
favor of republican policies, and 'U
has been suggested : that I answer
him. However, I do not believe in
rushing into "a " campaign" that is
eighteen months off, and I shall
choose my own time to say what I
have to say." Of Gen. "Wade
Hampton's refusal of the ofler of the
postmastership at , Columbia,- Mr.
Latimer said "1 haye no doubt
the offer was made in the hope of
securing the influence of that grand
old warrior in favor of Senator Mc
Launn's plans, and he baa shown
that his influence is , not ,to be se
cured in that, fashion. There isn't
money enough in the world to buy
Gen. HamDtonJLV; .,..
Trade has not1, to a satisfactory
extent, followed our flag into the
Philippines, if boots And shoes may
be considered fairly representative of
other' 'articles of commerce. Ah
though it is a fact generally .admit
ted; both at home and abroad, - that
American shoes "are the, best "and
cheapest in the world, an official
statement from Ibe ' AVar VDepart
ment shows that both Spain and
Germany sold many more boots and
shoes in the Philippines last year
than the United. Statesthe exact
flgores being f?pain, :$74, 183.- Ger
many, $50,2,41fbe l. S. $7t832.
Mr McKinley contention Jm IhtX
wej took and intend to keep the
Philippines solely for - commercial
reasons. In view of the tremendous
amount of cash we have put and are
putting into the Philippines it would
seem that our trade ought to make
a better showing than it does in
boots and shoes to leave Mr. Mc
Kioley's contention any standing at
alL' ' "; s; . '
The statement has been very posi
tively made in .Washington this
week by those who are believed to
speak for the administration that
Minister Conger will not be allowed
to return to China, and that bis re
signation will be' accepted si the ex
piration of bis present leave of ab
sence. It is said that the admin
istration regards his published In
terviews on matters pertaining to
Chins and the articles published
over his signature as decidedly no
diplomatic, and that he no longer hns
the support of the administration in
bis effort to get tbe republican
nomination for governor of Iowa.
Men who bare been disputed Jto be
friendly to Conger are thoroughly
disgusted with his throwing bou
quets at tbe Chinese Minister to the
U. 8., who did more than any other
man to discredit Conger's reports
from Pekin in tbe early days of the,
Chinese negotiations. "! I
Gen. Chaffee, "another admin
istration pet, ' has : shown ' how
unfitted he is ' for the command
of the American army in the
Philippines, to which he will suc
ceed as soon as he arrives at Manila,
by making the worst sort of a break
on the eve of his departure ' from
China A break that adds to the en
mity already too plainly shown to
ward Americons by all tbe powers
in China except the English. It
was at an entertainment given by
English officers, and doubtless Chaf
fee had looked upon the -wine when
it was red, but that was no excuse for
bim. ' He was sent to China on a
purely military errand and yet he
made a speech in which he used the
following language : ' "Let kings,
ministers and politicians say ' what
they may, but I can tell you this,
that never will you tee Americans
and Britishers facing each other in
the field. Our national policy may
be to steer clear ' of ' international
complications,' but should circum
stance arise in which we musl make
a choice our inclination wilt be with
Britishers." Language like that,
used by the commander of the
American troops in China, - was an
uncalled for insult to every v power
ever there except the English, ' and
Chaffee deserves' to be court msr-
tialed foi iU But no official notice
has been taken of It by this govern
ment, and none is likely, unless it
be formed by the insulted powers.

Crocker at Boston one year ago and
discovered tbe fact that he was rbr
nating soma new things with plumage
like the renclled Wyandotte, through
his persistent Inquiries as to oar meth
od of producing and breeding, the pen
ciling and color la the Penciled Wyan
dottet.. Then ba inquired If we had
any single combed sports. ' This con
firmed our suspicions; Having a few
single conns In each color, they were
sent to Mr. Crocker to be mated to ths
birds be already bad. and we under
stand be has made great improvement
by. nalng these single combed sports
from both varieties of Penciled Wyan
dotte, they having bred true to single
comb, clean legs and nicely pencil ad
plumage, ,'-,,.:., : ,:':,.":..,.
"But there are others'" who. have
started and are breeding. them, one of
these being lin John Low of 8 wan
sea, Mass. Mr. Lowe is also originat
ing a strata of each variety and hard
ly knows which b admire most the
Bllver Penciled or partridge Penciled.
But this Is not alt Mr. B. G. Boffln
ton of Pall Blvsr, Uasaof whom It
has been said, "A breeder who breeds
BuS-ln-too lots." Is also originating ths
Partridge Penciled variety and has re
cently Informed me that be has Just
purchased alt ot Dr. K. B. Aldrlch's
Partridge Penciled Bocks, besides a lot
f other birds of this variety from eth
er breeders. So It would seem that
Massachusetts Is a veritable hotbed in
the production ot these new Penciled
Bocks. The writer has three pullets
and a cockerel or two of these single
combed sports In the Partridge Pen
ciled variety, which, If mated together,
night produce single combed results
only, and If w conclude to do this we
will- be "In It." too, but we will do
nothing of the sort The two varieties
of Penciled Wysndottes keep us busy
thinking, sad a rose comb suits oar
taste better than a single comb. ,
There Is a probability that "there
are others" In different parts of the
world who ar breeding these assr
Penciled . Plymouth Bocks besides
those mentioned above. These, how
ever, ars all that I have heard of thus
far.- I do not; doubt bat that these
two varieties will be brought to a very
high standard of perfection, r at least
they will soon be brought up to an
equality with the Partridge Cochin and
Dark Brahma In color and markings,
as ths Partridge Cocbln and Dark
Brahma' can be tissd In ' Improving
these new varieties, it will be no
ticed that t have used the nam "Par
tridge Penciled:!' ' This nam win still
