Th Iteeord of the Administration Proving Embarasishig to Congres sional Candidates The Tariff as Ha Example. By Clyde H. Tavenner. Correspondence of The Gazette. WASHINGTON, Aug. 8. All over the land the regular Republican can didates for Congress are preparing to ask for election or re-election on the record of President Taft and the last Congress. Aside from the tar iff revision, with which the public is already familiar, the predominating features of the platform on which the stand-patters will make their final desperate stand are the postal bank bill and tbe so-called railroad regulation bill. rne railroad bill as passed was better than tbe existing law, im provements having been forced by Democrats and Insurgents. The original draft was one of the most vicious pieces of legislation propos ed in Congress in years. President Taft sent this bill to Congress with his personal endorsement and asked that it be passed without amend ment. It provided for a commerce court, which would have destroyed the usefulness of the interstate com merce commission, and made a Ex-Forester Gifford Pinchot hat ideas on other things beside conser vation. At a dinner given recently he declared that the nation had lost confidence in Congress because it represented special interests rather than the people. Continuing he said: "And of this there could be no bet ter illustration than the tariff. The tariff, under the policy of protec tion, was originally a means to raise the rate of wages. It has been made a tool to increase the cost of living. "The cotton cloth schedule was Increased in the face of the uncon tradicted publto testimony of the manufacturerers themselves that it ought to remain unchanged. "The steel interests by a trick se cured an indefensible increase in the tariff on structural steel. 'The sugar trust stole from the government like a petty thief, yet Congress, by means of a dishonest schedule, continues to protect it in bleeding the public." (Republican papers, please copy). Representative Charles E. Little- field, of .Maine, now admits that the plank In the last Republican nation al platform regarding Injunctions wa3 put there to placate the labor leaders and with no intention of Its being carried out. He carries his frankness to an even greater extent Annual Affair is Attended by Ten Thousand People Congressman Webb Delivers Stirring Address on the Boys of the Sixties Bal loon Ascension. Lincoln County News, 9th. CHERRYVILLE, August 6. Un der the auspices of the Retail Merchants Association recently or ganized, Cherryvllle pulled off today the biggest celebration In the histo ry of the town since 1889. As early as seven o'clock the crowds began to roll in in buggies, wagons. horseback, by rail and afoot The town was literally filled to over flowing long before the noon hour. The estimates of the crowd ran from 7,500 to 12,000. We think 10,000 is a very conservative estimate. One wagon from Indian Creek bringing in 73 and was drawn by four small mules. This is perhaps the largest congregation of people ever assem bled in the county. The principal feature of the day was the able and most .eloquent ad dress by Congressman Webb. Mr. Webb's theme was along the line of the Southern soldier (Bince a part of the attraction was a reunion), the Hawalln Islands, and the great pro gress of the American people. We venture that the speaker never spoke to a more attentive, large crowd. Mr. Webb is well and favorably known here and his selection as the orator on this occasion seemed to give entire satisfaction and now all are perfectly satisfied with the re sult, i After the speaking there were all kinds of races and other attractions, such as bicycle, fat men, wheelbar row and other races, showing of wild animals, etc., and at the hour of 12: 30 the good ladies of the town serv ed a most sumptuous dinner to a bout two hundred good and true vet erans. Quite a number of counties being represented. Tben at 3:30 Mrs. Coleman, of Tennessee, made one of the finest balloon ascensions ever witnessed in this section of the State.

It legalized existing mergers between existing lines; It contained a joke provision to regulate the U suing of railroad securities. The Democrats and Insurgents forced some Improvements, but were prevented by administration influ ences from putting in provisions which would have been of real value to the people, such as physical valu . ation of the roads as a basis of rate regulation. Such was the railroad bill that would have become law had Presl dent Taft had his way. Congress passed the kind of pos tai savings bank bill that Mr. Taft wanted. The effect will be. it is thought by those who have given study to the act as passed, to drain local communities of the money de posited in postal savings banks. Had the Democrats and Insurgents had their way, a postal bank bill such as was desired by the people, would have been passed. But through the , influence of the administration. Ald was able to thwart the will of the people, and to secure the passage of a bill which will give Wall street the control of the people's money as never before. Still another feature of the Taft record is the tariff commission law, also a gold brick. It creates a com . mission without powers, and gives the special interests $250,000 of the people's money to carry on the cam paign against honest revision of the tariff on the basis of equalization of the unwary worklngman and delude him with tho hotiof that tha Ponii K .

If the " wunaerruQieat nas shown to this sec Soldier, Statesman and Patriot Be loved and Esteemed by AH Fell on Sleeo Sunday Afternoon After Long illness Buried Monday With Masonic Honors. Cleveland Star, 9th. Capt. Lemuel J. Hoyle, soldier, statesman, patriot and beloved cit izen of Cleveland county sweetly fell oh sleep, Sunday afternoon at 4 o'clock. Death came as a relief to this princely gentleman. For three long years he had been a helpless paralytic. He died In his seventy-first year, after living a life pregnant with use fulness to his home, his county and his State. x Capt. Hoyle was born In Lincoln county. In his young manhood he moved to Cleveland county to en gage in business. When the civil war began he was one of the first to enlist, going to the front as a mem ber of one of the Lincoln county companies. He served gallantly rising to the rank of Captain. Capt. Hoyle and Capt. John F. TIddy were fellow participants in the battle of Bethel, the first engagement of the war, and Capt Tiddy is now the sole survivor in this county of that first memorable battle. At the close of the war Cant. Hoyle came back to Cleveland brok en in health but still undaunted. With that splendid fighting Bpirit which he so largely Dossessed. he began the task of reconstruction of things material and financial, estab lishing himself in business at Bel wood. Success came to him and he quickly and easily became a leader in his community. He served with honor and dis tinction in the upper and lower houses of the general assembly. He was also for a number of years, a member of the board of county com missioners, serving with that splen did gentleman, the late I. W. Gar rett. In 1898, he was elected clerk of Superior Court, and served most capably for two terms. Falling health forced his retirement from the office which he filled so credita bly. He was a valued member of the board of education for several terms. As a member of Kadesh Metho dist church he was a tower of strength and one of its most valued and trusted consellors. He was likewise an honored member of the Masonic fraternity, holding his mem- i JACKSON-FERGUSON.

The nuptial vows were taken in the presence of a large gathering of rel atives and close friends In the par lor of the Ferguson home, which had been elaborately decorated with ferns and potted plants for the oc casion. Rev. R. M. Stevenson, pas tor of the Associate Reformed Pres- by terlan church at Clover, perform ed the ceremony Impressively. As Miss Mary Adams played the wedding march the party entered the parlor in the following order: Miss Iva Pursley, maid of honor, follow ed by Mrs. Leslie Crawford, a sister of the bride, as dame of honor; next came the groom accompanied by his brother, Mr. Earl Jackson,' as best man, and following them came the qride accompanied by her brother. Boyce Ferguson, who gave her Mr. away. They were met at the altar by the officiating minister who spoke the words that Joined their lives to gether. The ushers were Messrs.

The situation In Spain resulting from a conflict between the Roman Catholic church . and the govern ment has reached a most acute stage and no man can tell what the out come will be.

' In the meantime King Alfonso hat gone to England with his queen. He has been to France, where it is said he sought advice as to his course In deallna with th al Hint Inn mnA will . also seek the advice of King George, of England. It is believed that hi trip was made so as to remove him for the time being from any Influence the Vatican might bripg to bear up on him, and also to allow Canalejas a free hand. in dealing with the cri sis. Canalejas, It seems, has Alfon so's full sympathy In the anti-cleri cal movement, and will carnr It through to the end. If there should be a clash between the troops and the people and much bloodshed it seems hardly possible, that a revolu tion can be avoided. As the result of the action of Spain in severing diplomatic rela tions with the Vatican,, ft is said 1 that Portugal may also Join in the anti-clerical movement and begin an active campaign to divorce state af- ' fairs from those of the church. : m Public Land for Settlers. Thousands of acres of unappropri ated lands which were eliminated from the national forest reserves and restored to the public domain by re cent proclamation of President Taft will be thrown open to homestead settlement and entry this fall in compliance with orders Issued by Acting Secretary Pierce, of the In terior .Department. The lands are located in Colorado, New Mexico, Washington, Oregon, Utah, Idaho and Wyoming.' The secretary also has restored to settlement October 22, and to entry November 21, 9.- 220 acres in the Great Falls, Mont, land district, formerly withdrawn. truth was told, it would no doubt reveal that the tariff revision plank was another dishonest plank, never Intended of fulfillment, and that the wbole platform was a tissue of false hood and false pretense.
