low The Matter Closely.
THE DOINGS OF EWART ON
LAST TRIP TO WASHING
TON CAUSE GOSSIP,
KI3
A
Washington, D. C, June 2. Special.
-The provision In the agricultural ap
propriation bill, which goes Into effect
July 1, for making a survey of regions
of the Appalachians for the purpose of
establishing a park, la now safely In
corporated In the law, and It remains
for the secretary of agriculture to
carry It 'nt0 effect. Senator , Pritchard
stated today that the work Would have
to be done through some of the expert
foresters of the. department, and that
ltWas his purpose to -follow the' matter
up closely and to see, as far as possi
ble, that the survey was made in
prompt fashion. The report,' necessa
rijy, cannot be made to congtess till
the next session, but during the sum
mer the work of survey and Investiga
tion must be done. . ,
As the agricultural appropriation bill
does not go into effect until July 1, the
secretary of agriculture cannot send
any of his foresters to Ashevllle and vi
cinity until after that date. Necessarily
a great deal of travel over the wooded
regions to be Included If such a park
' should be established will be necessary
and the experts will have to spend
great deal of time in that vicinity.
The North Carolina members of the
house are all planning to pull up stakes
and leave almost as soon as congress
aijourps. The outlook new is that the
adjournment will not be until late next
week, possibly not till one week from
Monday. All depends upon the prog
ress made In agreeing to one or two
of the big appropriation bills. If the
differences on the naval bill aie dls
posed itihis week there wll oe some
hope of an adjournment y next
Wednesday.
IN THE CAMPAIGN.
Nearly all the Democrats of the del
egation will enter at once ' into the
, state campaign. Representative
Kluttz said toflay that he should first
have to go to Buffalo, whece he propos
es' to attend a session of the supreme
lodge of the Knights of Honor, but af
ter that he expects to return to his dls
trict. Representative Bellamy will go
straight back to Wilmington. He has
Just returned from a trip down there,
having delivered on Tuesday the annu
al commencement address at Davidson
college. Representative Kltchln
planning for quite a campaign tour in
the state.. He will make 12 or
speeches in his own district and after
wards may make 25 or 30 speeches in
the state. He received this week a let
ter from ex-Representative Crawford,
asking that he make some speeches up
In the mountain district of the state.
Mr. Kltchln Is hot decided as to that,
however, because he will put himself
In the hands of the chairman of the
state" committee and t will alio Mr.
Simmons to arrange the dates where
the most good will be done. There Is
a probability, however, that Mr. Sim
mons will want to send Mr. Kltchln up
into the ninth district, for at least one
or two speeches. Representative Atwa
ter and Representative Small are both
in North Carolina, but It Is probable.
that they will return again before con
gress adjourns. !
The sentiment of all the Democrats
on the delegation is that the campaign
for the amendment shall be pressed
forward vigorously and that there
shall be no letup in the war on the po
sition taken by the Republicans. The
sentiment also among the Democrats
is most encouraging for a Democratic
victory. Those who have gone down
into the state and come back again
agree that everything Is working well
for the Demoeratle; party. Represent
ative Kluttz said today that the Re
publicans usually counted their big
majorities before, the day of election,
and it would probably be that way
this year. -' '
u The activity of the Democratic mem-,
bers of the delegation In the state
campaign will probably prevent a
great many of them from attending the
convention at Kansas City. Represent
ative Kluttz and Representative Kltch
ln stated that they do not expect to
attend there. Mr. Bellamy, however,
expects to go to Kansas City and will
" be In close touch with the North Car
olina delegation throughout the con
vention THE VICE-PRESIDENCY.
The attitude of the delegation in the
house towards a vice-presidential can
didate Is by no means settled. The
most of the members seem to be quite
undecided as to who would make the
best running mate for Mr. Bryan. Rep
resentative Bellamy, however, is very
oulspoke"n In his championship for the
. candidacy of, . Representative McClel
land tf New York,- and there is no
doubt but what the North Carolina
delegation to the Kansas City conven
tlon will be urged more or less by Mr.
Bellamy to cast their vote for this
young and promising New; Yorker
look upon Mr. McClelland as a very
strong candidate" said Mr. Bellamy
today. "He is the son of General Uc
Clelland, a man whose memory is
revered to this day by a large follow
ing In both New York and New Jersey
To win this campaign we must make
ome gains In the! eastern states, and
nowhere could we hope for better sue
wss than In New York and New Jer
ipy. Mr. McClelland' Is a man of ex
cellent reputation, has voted with the
Party on all financial measures, and l
sufficiently conservative to command
the respect and support of substantial
men In the empire state. Ke'ls young
which would commend him to the
younger men or the party; and would
be admirably adapted as a running
male for Mr. Bryan. . In" short, Mr.
McClelland seems to be thoroiigt.iV
available as a vtce-prestdentlal candi
date." .... ;
EWART CAUSES GOSSIP.
There has been a great deal of In
teresting gossip for several days In in
side circles about the sojourn of Judgj
Ewart In Washington. After it be
came apparent to him that his case
could uot 'be reported out, of the com
mittee and that President , McKlnley
would not .renominate him again, tha
judge carried himself about town and
frequented certain places which caus
ed considerable commetftTSome' of the
North Carolinians took notice of this,
and gossip concerning the judge Is said
to have even reached the White house.
The case, of course, is dead and It can
be said on the best, of authority that
the history of Judge Ewart's efforts to
become a federal judge In .North Caro.-
Tlna ls( now complete.!"'- ;j -Jl j ? ,t
As soon as congress leaves, Wash
ington promises "to liave but little' of
political interest. The decision of the
Republicans to move their congression
al committee headquarters to Chicago
will take away a great deal of travel
among politicians from this section of
the country, and shows the determina
tion of the party to fight the battle
hiost vigorously In the middle west.
The j Democrats,!, however,' will keep
their congressional headquarters h
In Washington, but It Is not probable
that their national headquarters will
come here, although there has been
some' talk of changing from Chicago,
on account of the unfriendly treat
ment accorded by the newspapers in
that city. A great deal of 'literature
will be sent out from here all through
the summer, because this Is the most
available place for mailing matter
from the Congressional Record, which
can be franked. ? r ' I " , .;
OREGON ELECTION.
The politicians are watching eagerly
for the Outcome of the election in Ore
gon next Monday, because this is re
garded as a straw showing the senti
ment of the people. There are two Re
publican , representatives In congrss
from that state now: Mr. Tongue and
Mr. Moody. Both of them feel hopeful,
but not confident of carrying the state
next Monday. There is a great deal of
apathy among the voters and no one
can tell just what that means. A
slump In the Republican Tote would
probably result In the defeat of Mr.
Tongue, as he was elected- by a v very
narrow majority. If the state should
be carried by the Democrats It would
cause great alarm among the Republi
cans and would stimulate them to re
newed vigor all along the line in the
presidential campaign.

LOCKJAW GERM MAKES EVERY
ONE GO SHOD.
Havana oor, New York Sun.
Two grown men went strolling un
concernedly up the centre of the Pra
do the. other afternoon with a stark
naked girl baby toddling along between
them. Not a stitch did the child have
on except a pair of rope bottomed slip
pers. Her little brown body was as
fat as a butterball and glistened in
the sun as though It had been oiled.
"Heavens!"' ejaculated a Yankee Just
come to town. "Wouldn't that come
and get you. Up the Prado, the swell
est street In town, with nothing on but
a pair of slippers. That's certainly
next door to wearing a pleasant smile.
."It's a little rare," said the other
American, who had. been her"Ionger,
"to see a kid like that, but In the coun
try it's so common that no. one pays
any attention to them. In the city a
sense of decency generally prevails t

ment of the police. But no matter h jv
little else a child or grown poison may
have on, you'll never find any of them

The cheeks of tan are here all right
down to the last shade, of dead, dead
black, but he wouldn't have found a
barefooted boy unless he'd caught him
rolling out of bed.
There is a mighty good reason, too,
for not going barefooted in Havana.
The streets of this city are permeated
with the filth of centuries and among
the agglomerated collection of bacilli
appears in large and virulent force the
lockjaw germ. Tetanus is a very com
mon disease here, and the people have
learned that it Is dangerous to go
barefooted. An abrasion on the foot
Is aulte likely to give the undertaker
a Job unless Immediate care is taken of
it, and even the poorest people preier
to go about with their feet protected.
The fact that the stone pavements are
friirhtfullv hot In the sun and that

are cold Is another reason for wearing
shoes or slippers. It's mighty uncom
fortable walking on hot flagging bare
