C ' KlHililTZYCOrJ SiM Bams Washington Letter. Washington, May 2, 1908. Senator Culberson, Democratic leader of the Senate, is making an earnes' efltfrt in the closing hours of the session to" secure action by the Republican majority on some meas ure which he regards as of vital (m portance to the welfare of the people and, if he can secure the hearty co operation of his party colleagues, the next weeks of Congress may witnesp filibusters at both ends of the Capitol with, possibly a post ponement of the final date of ad journment. The four measures on which the Senator from Texas will take his stand, provided always he finds he can rely on the cooperation of his colleagues, are the Overman anti-injunction bill, which has al ready passed the Senate, the Ful ton bill, which is a Republican measure, and which provides that the Interstate Commerce Commis sion shall pass on the reasonable ness of all proposed increases of rail way freight rates; the campaign pub licity bill, and the Culberson bill which provides that railways must furnish a sufficient number of cars to supply the needs of shippers. Unfortunately there is some question as to how far Mr. Culberson's col ;ues will stand by him in the proposed programme. Many of them are anxious to get away irom Washington and two, at least, have indicated that they will do nothing which would materially prolong the session. In the House, John Sharpe Wil liams, the Democratic leader, is put ting the Republicans in a worse hole than ever and there is reason to believe that as a result of his tac tics some of them will find there re election a most difficult proposition. Recently the Democratic leader caused to be brought into the House a small table, provided with pens and ink, and placed it before the Speaker's desk. On the table he placed the petition signed by all the Democratic members praying the Speakers to permit the bill remov ing the duty on wood pulp to come to a vote. Mr. Williams, in an eloquent speech, besought the Re publicans, at least thirty of them, to sign the petition so that the Speaker would be compelled at least to submit the question to a caucus of the House. He reminded them that this legislation had been rec ommended by President Roosevelt in the most earnest terms, that it was approved of by their prospec tive presidential candidate, Secre tary Taft, and that it had the unan imous support of newspaper pub lishers in all parts of the country. But the Republicans greeted bis elo quence with laughter and jeers and refused to add one signiture to the petition. A peculiar drama is being enacted by Senator Aldrich and Speaker Cannon with regard to the financial legislation recommended by the President. The House has indi cated its great unwillingness to pass the Aldrich bill, but Mr. Cannon has promised that it shall, and he is carefully making his preparations to coerce the majo rity into doing his bidding. He has caused the Public Building bill, popularly known as the '-Pork Bar'l," to be held up and he will not permit its final passage until the majority rotes as he tells them to 00 the financial bill. The Public Building bill contains pro vision for postofiices; custom bouses and si miliar buildings which will reach an aggregate cost oi $20,000,. 000. The passage of this bill is of vital importance to some members and its failure would probably de feat certain members when they stand for reelection. They dare not do ayntbing to defeat the measure and consequently it seems probable that Mr. Cannon will be able to drive them ultimately into accepting the Aldrich bill, whether they like it or not Qf course Mr. Cannon has the advantage of standing with the President on the Aldrich bill, for Mr. Roosevelt realises that it Is the only financial measure which can be passed and he thinks it would be criminal to risk another financial stringency with no provision lor an emergency currency. In the opinion of some prominent Democrats the Bryan boom has re ceived something of a setback re cently and they are anxiously await ing the developments of the next few weeks. ' Frederick B, Lynch, treas urer of the Minnesota Democratic committee, and bead of the John son boom in Chicago, haa been ia Washington this week working like a Trojan for his hero. t Mr Lynch has held a number of conference with Southern and Eastern Demo crats and he declares that "all oi the New England states, New York, 'Pennsyl vania and all of the cost and gulf states with the exception of Alabama,' Mississippi and Texas, will send uninstructed delegates to Denver. Included in his list will be Michigan, Ohio and the West coast states." Mr. Lynch, replying to a question, said. "I am confident that considerably less than half of the delegates will be instructed for Mr. Bryan and while I am not claiming that all who are unin structed will be for Governor John son, I am confident that he will have a majority of the uninstructed delegates." Mr Lynch said be be lieved there would be nearly 500 delegates against Bryan on the first ballot. President Roosevelt is trying hard to figure that he won a victory on the battleship vote in the Senate, when bis recommendation of four battleships was turned down but the leaders did not commit themselves to a programme of two new battle ships a year. The fact is that Sena tor Beveridge made such a foolish, jingo speech in favor of the four battleships amendment that some Senators voted against it who would like to do otherwise. They felt that after the Beveridge speech a vote for four ships would be taken by for eign nations, and especially by Ja pan, as an endorsement of Beve ridge's absurd and frothy declama tion.

Charlotte Observer, Mar. 89, 1908.1 To the Editor of The Observer. This office was created for the ben efitof the agricultural interests of the State, and the man that fills the ppsition of Commissioner should be a practical farmer. It is a fact that, while the great majority of our peo ple are engaged in cultivating the soil, intelligent and successful farm ing is seldom seen. Our soil, cli mate and natural advantages make it possible for our State to rank with any of her sisters in the production of the great 1 staple products of this country, but for some cause we are not making the progress we should, We should employ every means available to arouse our people in be half of this vital interest. The Commissioner of Agriculture can do a great deal in this behalf, and should himself be a practical farmer. Mr. R. W. Scott, of Alamance county, is a practical farmer. He was reared on a farm and when he crew ud to manhood he began on a farm that had run down and had, in many places, washed into gullies. Now it is a large fertile tract of land, with ao elegant residence, large barns, modern and well arranged. The farm is well slocked with im proved horses, cattle, sheep, etc. This has all been done on this farm by the energy of this man without funds obtained from any other source. He haa a large and interesting family of children and he is educat ing them in the schools and train ing them on the farm: ' Mr. Scott takes great interest in the public welfare. He is now a mem ber of the Board of Agriculture which position he has held for several years and which he has filled most accep tably. The Agricultural Building at the A. & M. College is a monu ment to the success of his efforts in the Legislature, where he has repre sented bis county in both branches. He has been a zealous advocate of education in his community and in the State, has stood for advance ment in all industrial pursuits, is a man, of irreproachable moral charac ter and deserves recognition by the people of the State.

It is not generally known that the idea of printing illustrated post age stamps originated in this olty. The distinction of having suggested the illustrated stamps is claimed by James C.

A few years later the Columbian series of illustrated stamps was . issued and found such favor that many other series nave followed to commemorate impor tant national events.
