Presents Some Fipres of
Interest

Committee on Assessment and Equalization
make their Report —Place Average
Value per Acre at $53.21
The session of thecouutj board always
brings out some jH-cnliar facts and prob
ablv the greatest surprise came with
Bi nno Mueller’s rejsirt This repoit is
for six mouths only, but shows that dur
ing that time fioui May 10 to Nov. 10..
while 178 mairiagm were celebrated and
192 deaths occured. SHI babies made their
appearance. Someone ought to notify
president Roosevelt, it would greatly
p ease him. Formerly the deaths and
births were just about even but this time
there is a difference. In France last year
there were 20.000 more deaths than
births and—well, Manitowoc is not
France.
Charles Hacker, the county treasurer,
tiled his repoit and that showed the fol
lowing receipts and expenditures:

The clerk of the Circuit court Pat Mc-
Mahon reported that he had issued orders
for $4707.26 these being to pay jurors,
court reporters, referees, witnesses for
the state and court officers.
The committee to whom had been re
ferred the plank road trouble, reported
that the town of Manitowoc and Manito
woc Rapids were bound to take care of
the road and that the road be turned
over to them on Dec. 31st. 1903. Wheth
er this will settle the trouble remains to
be seen. The road is in poor condition at
present aud someone will have to main
tain it
The trustees of the insane asylum will
probably present a petition, requesting
the building of a hospital to be run in
connection with iheasyhmi. So far con
tagious diseases have not invaded the
asylum, but should it ever hapi>en great
trouble would be experienced to handle
it without a seja-rate hospital. Thehos
pital will not cost a great deal and it will
probably lie best to follow the trustees
recomendations.
The trustees also recommend the
purchase of the Schreihart farm. The
farm adjoins the asylums land and con'
tains 30 acres, $125 00 per acre is asked"
At present there are 154 patients in the
asylum. 61 females and 198 males. Of
these 61 are Manitowoc patients, while
34 are supported by the state and the
balance come from other counties. Dur
ing the year the average was 156 jer
month. Nine patients died within the
past year and twelve new ones were re.
ceived. The asylum is self supporting
124642 02 were received and the cost of
support was $16,073 66 giving a profit of
$7663 36. Ths institution is estimated to
lie worth about $163,000,
The committee on assessment and eqna

of other companies iuune iately adopted
the process. Todistiugii.sh his malt, Mr
Rahr had a trade mark designed in which
a large figure 8 is surrounded bv barley.

design and an action was commenced to

MANITOWOC, WIS. NOVEMBER 19,1903.
WASHINGTON LETTER
(FROM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT)
Washington. D. C. Nov. 16 1903,
President Roosevelt is evidently de
termined that the race issue shall be
kept alive, us be has sent to the Senate,
for the third time, the name of Dr. W.
D. Crum to be Collector of Customs
at Charlestown.
Twice before the Senate refrained
from taking action in this case, as
the republican me tutors did not wish to
slight the President and at the same
time desired to respect the wishes of
the white people of Charlestown as
well as of the Senator from South Caro
lina. who objected to Crum's appoint
ment on the ground that he was a
negro. As the Senate di I not isjsitive
lv refuse to confirm the nomination, the
President named Crnin as a recess ap
l>ointiiieiit aud the negro has ls-en serv
ing for some months despite the pro
tests of the jieople of ( harlestown.
But the President is resolved that the
Senate shall act in the case and has sent
in the nomination once more. Th
qnestiou is likely to cause an interes
ting debate and it is very probable that
Mr. P® isevelt will not lie suppor ed by
h's own party in this attempt to force
upon the jieople of a Southern city an
official who is distasteful to them.
In this connection it is interesting to
note that Representative i "rmnpacker of
Indiana has reintroduced in the House
his res lotion of last session providing
for the appointment of a commissi n of
eleven members to investigate the con
ditions of suffrage in the several states.
The undisguised pnrp >se of the resoln
lion is to reduce the representation in
Congress of thorn states which have
disfranchised the negns-s In this way
a number of republicans ho|>e to in
crease their majority in the Hmush or at
least prevent the dem s-rats from gain
ing the npis-r hand Representative
Dick of Ohio will urge tin- passage
of a resolution providing for an inve-ti
gat ion of the subject of negro disfran
chisement. Hitt ultimate purpose is
identical with that of Cruuipacker.
Even the authors of the resolution
doubt if there will lie a vote on them
during the extra or regular session, but
they together with Crums appoint
ment, will serve to keep the issue alive
and make the negro vote safe for the
republican party. The repuhli
cans seem to have profited little
by the last election in Maryland
where th race question was rhe main
issue.
With solicr deliberation, in which in
marked contrast to the reckless inipul
v'ii*hh of President Roosevelt in the
affair, the democratic senators have de
ctded to wait for fuller information lie
fore they in ike a party issue out of the
actions of the Administration in recog
nizing the de facto government at
Panama before the revolution was even
known of at the Columbian capital. A
large Ameiicati fleet is being gathered
on each side of the Isthmus and Colnm
bia has lieen notified that this govern
•neut will not permit her to laid troops
at either Panama or Colon. M, Phil
ippe Hunan Varilla who has just lieen
appointed envoy extraordinary and
minister plenipotentiary of the new
republic, has been in Washington and
took lunch with Secretary Hay who is
giving him every encouragement in his
attempts to have our government recog
nize the ab-olnte sovereignity of Pana
ma. M. Varilla sent a very patroni
zing letter to Senator Morgan asking
him to renounce his opposition to the
Panama route. After it was shown
that the le ku wi. a breach of diploma
tic. propriety, the new minister excused
his action on the ground that he wrote
as a private citizen. In the letter, how
ever, he addresses Senator Morgan as
ttie minister ot the Republic of Pana
ma. Dr. Herran. the Columbian rep
resentative at Washington, has sent a
firm -protest to the State Department
against the action of the United States
in recognizing the revolutionists and in
preventing Columbian forces from as
sertaining the national authority over
the Isthmus As the (sipnlalion of
Columbia is about four million and
that of Panama only alsuit iMO.Oon the
small republic would not last long if
it were not for the protection of the
United State-" The new minister af
fairs on tin* Isthmus recognizes this
fact, and says that the notification to
Bogota from Washington is equivalent
to forbidding that government from
making war on Panama In fact, as
an officer of the Administration said,
,r Our government is bound to have
peace if we have to fight for it.” Al
though it has not yet taken a partisan
form, the opposition to th President's
action, in recognizing a government
three days after the revolution broke
out, is determined and hitter in many
influential quarters This recognition
has been termed an act of piracy, inde- ]
cent haste, dragging the national honor ,
in the mud. and has givau this country ;
the title of bully of the American con
tinent.
In selecting Representative John
Sharp Williams of Mississippi an their
leader in the House, the democrats have
placed theime'ves under the guidance
of one of the most able men in Congress
and forced Ihe members of both parties
toiecoguize him as an able and logical
debater, a parliamentarian and a power
on the democratic side of t*’e House.
He is fifty years old, by profession a
lawyer ami bv occupation a -otton
planter. He was educated in the uni
versities of Virginia and Heidelburg,
Germany and is one of the learned men
in Congress, He speaks Ger’ an,
French. Spani-h, Italian and Greek.
At the Chi-Hgo Convention which nomi
nated Cleveland and Stevenson, he was
a member of the Mississippi delegation
and since that time he has been in poli
tics. The only position he has held is
that of member of Congress and
he nas always tieen elected to succeed
himself. At the last election he r*-
ceived every vote cast in his district
As leader of the minority he has the
highest position which the democrats
cari give and every prospect of Isdng
elected sia-aker as soon as the |>arfy
gets the majority in the House. He
aud Gorman in the Senate are sure to
put the republicans on the defensive be
fore the session is far advanced.
Because of his opp mUioii to the I* ana
ma route Sen.ttot Morgan of Alabama is
to be deprived by the republicans of the
chairmanship of the Committee "of In
teroceanic Canals, and the Committee
of Committees in the Senate has been
authorized to sel-ct bis successor It is
most probable that Senator Hanna, a
strong advocate of the Panama mute
and third iiiemlier of the present com
mittee will Is- made chairman By
I court ear of the majority >n the Senate,
the minority has ten chairmanships out
of the-ixly four. By removing Senator
Morgan this iiumbei will lie reduced to
nine To let ifi-Senator'from Alabama
"down as easily as possible' he will to
offered the chairmanship of the impor
taut Committee on Public Health und
Quarantine, fcimerly presided over by
