LOVINO CUP PRESENTED

The President's Letter.
Oyster Bay, N. Y., August 5. 1908.
My dear Mr. Simmons: I thank you
for your kind invitation. It is not pos
sible for me to accept, much to my
regret. Thru you may I convey to the
guests assembled my cordial sympa
thy with their purpose, and to Rear
Admlral Robley D. Evans, in particu
lar, let me renew the assurance of the
high regard and esteem which he al
ready knows I hold for him. His has
been one of the most honorable car
eers of our public service. All good
Americans owe him a debt of grati
tude. In a peculiar degree his name
typifies the growth of our Navy from
the days of Farragut to the day when
Admiral Evans himself brought into
the Pacific waters the mightiest war
fleet that had ever appeared west of
Magellan or east of Suez, command
ing this fleet during the first period
of a voyage such as no' other fleet of
the kind of any nation has ever taken.
It is eminently appropriate that the
reception to Admiral Evans should
be given in what you well call "a
veritable temple . of peace," for the
United States Navy Is the best guar
antee of peace we have, and all men
who believe m the peace of justice
throughout the world should do ev
erything that In them lies to main
tain and build up this navy.
Sincerely Yours,
Theodore Roosevelt.
Mr. J. Edward Simmons,
Lake Mohonk Mountain House,
Mohonk Lake. N. Y.

MORE EVIDENCE IN THE
TEXICO RAILROAD SUIT.
Notice has come to Judge Wm. H.
Pope that the parties to the suit tit
the people of Texlco against the New
Mexico Eastern railroad, will - want
to present more testimony before the
case is decided. A. L. Hull,. Jr., has
been named referee and he will go
to Texlco, and possibly to Amarillo,
to take testimony, next week. News
papers from up the line report that
Mr. Burney, of the law firm of Cow
an & Burney, of Fort Worth, has
been employed to assist in caring for
the Texlco side of the suit. The pur
pose of the suit Is to prevent the re
moval of the track between Texlco
and Cameo.
Address of J. Edward Simmons, i
Mr. Simmons Bald that the occas
ion -of the retirement of Rear-Admir
al Evans was to be deeply regretted,
first because of the ill health which
compelled him to surrender the chief
commjuid of the greatest fleet of bat
tleships that has ever made a tour
of the world, and because the Admir
al's brilliant career terminates under
the law on his sixty-second birthday,
and the navy loses one of Its most
experienced officers at a time when
in building up the New Navy, his pro
fessional services would be of inesti
mable value. -
It was appropriate, Mr. Simmons
said, that the retirement of Rear Ad
miral Evans should be celebrated in
the "Temple of Peace" created by the
(Mohonk Society of Peace years ago,
because while Rear Admiral Evans
had justly. won the title of "Fighting
Bob Evans," he is an outspoken, in
sistent and persistent fighter for peace
"Now that we have become a world
power," said the speaker, "and now
that our domestic affairs, as well as
our responsibilities in the Philippines,
at Panama, in Hawaii, in Cuba and
Porto Rico, subject us to constant
danger from the jealous and ambit
lous aggressions of great naval es
tablishments in Europe as well as in
the Orient, it stands to reason that
both prudence and duty now demand
that we do precisely what our kins
men In the British Isles long ago
found absolutely necessary to their
self-preservation."
In conclusion, Mr. Simmons said:
"We welcome you Admiral Evans, to
the shades of private life. We hope
your health will be speedily and per
manently reestablished, and we wish
for you and for your family all the
sweetest blessings of prosperity and
happiness.
Evans.
SPeeeh of Admiral R. D
Ladles and Gentlemen:
In one respect at least naval offic
ers are exactly like any other worthy
servants of the people they are glad
when they have pleased their employ
ers. From what I have heard and
seen here to-night, it seems that dur
ing my forty-eight years of actual
service I have given satisfaction to
you who may fairly be assumed to
represent the people of the United
States my employers. I have not the
necessary words with which to thank
you for what you have tonight done
for me. Please accept my sincere
thanks for the beautiful cup, which
will be preserved and valued by those
of my family who survive me.
It may not be out of place for me
to say that during my forty-eight
years of service I have done all in
my power to uphold the honor and
dignity of my country, and that I
have loved the dear old Flag as I love
nothing else in this world. That I
have suffered severely" under that
flag must be evident to any one who
sees me, but I would live my life ov
er again Just as I have lived it If I
knew the suffering was to be a thous
and times as great. I go to the retired
list with a feeling that It Is a reward
for long and honorable service, and 1
hope to enjoy the rest and comfort
it may bring, unless some emergency
eh all call me back into active service
when I shall give all that remains of
me to my country as willingly as I
have given the best years of my han
hood. .
I thank you again most sincerely

DIPPING KILLS MANY
SHEEP FOR GOLDEN BERG
, Report has come from Ernest John
son, manager of the Hugo Goldenberg
ranch, 18 miles this side of Torrance,
that 350 of the Goldenberg sheep died
as a result of dipping this summer.
In the whole outfit 20,500 sheep were
dipped twice and it was after the sec

The cause of death is unknown, but
the favorite theory is that there was
something faulty in the preparation
of the chemicals.

DfSPUTE OF NETHER
LANDS AND VENEZUELA.
The Hague, Aug. 19. After nine
hours session during which the dis
pute between The Netherlands and
Venezuela was canvassed in all its
pliases, the cabinet dispersed shortly
after midnight and the foreign minis
ter called on the Queen to inform her
of the result of the council. The terms
of The Netherlands' answer to the
letter of Castro were fully discussed,
and It is understood that the actual
text a3 well as broad lines of action
were drafted to meet any possible
eventualities. It is agreed in diplo
matic circles that the view entertain
ed of the present difficulties between
Holland and Venezuela are different
from the disputes of other nations
with Venezuela. In other cases the
governments have sought satisfac
tion for claims, but Holland has no
claims. The present question is con
sidered one of society and national
honor, matters not so susceptible of
solution by arbitration.
HOW COULD IT BE
OTHERWISE?
After years of honest endeavor to please our cus
tomers is it any wonder that taade comes our way?
