Washington, Dec. 29.—The san- guine view,of.the Venezuelan sit- uation taken in my letter a week ago proves, inthe light of sibse- quent events, to havé beén amply warranted. Not only have'all the parties to the difficulty consented to submit their differences to arbi- tration but they: have accepted the suggestion of the United States and will employ the good offices of The Hague tribunal. . Numerous administrative details remain to be perfected and even some more imn- portant contentions. on the part of the powers await final settlement, bat it is known that Secretary Hay has already begun work on ‘the preliminary protocol which, when signed, will confide to The Hague the arbitrament of the many claims and differences. There was a time during the past week when it was feared that the president would be compelled to accept the onerous task of arbitrating the case, such being the wishes of the allies; but Secretary Hay, with great diplomacy, succeeded in mak- ing it clear that it would be an im- position to ask the presidént to perform so difficult and thankless an undertaking, and emphasized the wisdom of following the ex- ample in the Pius fund and honor- ing the international tribunal which all the powers involved had estab- the present. Second in importance to the sat- isfactory progress: of the Venezu- elan negotiations, has been the publication of the terms of the Cuban treaty negotiated in Havana under the instructions of Secretary Hay. The general trend of the treaty was outlined in these letters some weeks ago, but now absolute facts can be stated. The reduction from prevailing tariff rates pro- vided is twenty per cent on all goods not on the free list at the present time, but in addition the United States receives a large number of special discounts which, in the judgment of the administra- tion, will secure to the manufactu- rers and producers of this country an absolute monopoly of the Cu- ban trade. So faras it has been possible to ascertain, members of of congress are well pleased with the treaty which they regard as a triamph for American diplomacy. Several have predicted that fhe convention will be promptly rat- ified. The president has skillfully forestalled the imminent discussion as to the respective prerogatives of the senate and the house by an- nouncing that.if the senate ratified the treaty without reference to the house he would immediately send a message to congress asking for enabling legislation. . Under the provisions of the treaty, Cuban products entering the united states will do so at a uniform discount of 20 per cent from the Dingley rates and pro- ducts of the United States enter- ing Cuba will receive a concession of 20 per cent from the lowest Cuban tariff assessed on ‘similar goods from other countries except when otherwise provided, the ex- ceptions being instances where special discounts of 25, 30 and 40 per cent are allowed. It ie worthy of note that, even with the 20 per cent discount, the producers of beet sugar will still enjoy a protection. of one and one third cents per pound against Cuban competition. Agricultural pro- ducts receive special conisder- ation, to wit: 30 per cent dis- count on butter, raw cotton and wool, 40 per cent on rice ete, Manufactured cotton and woolen goods receive a discount of 40 per cent, while manufacturers of iron and steel, and the raw material receive discounts of 25 per cent, and silk goods, watches, umbrel- lished for emergencies similar to| | by General Tasker H. Bliss, acting | NU MBER 47. las, ete. receive a Metin of 40 per cent. The so called*‘open door policy” in the Philippines is occasioning much perplexity in the war depart- ment and the senate committee on Philippines, Great Britain and Germany have protested against what they claim is a failure on the part of this country to main- ‘tain that policy. In evidence of such failure they cite the case of Manila hemp and fibre on which the Philippine commission, with sanction of congress, has Imposed an export duty .of $7.50 per ton, which duty, however, is remitted when the products shipped to the United States. Senator Lodge of the, Philippine comnilettee has always argued that the open “door policy must stand, and for that rerson. no advantage could be afforded the United States on goods shipped into the Philippines, but it now looks as though that posi- tion was about to be abandoned. The administration holds that as a possession of the United States the Philippines cannot be bound by the policy but must be regarded in the light.of colonies, to which foreign nations have no greater right to expect equal import and export duties. than they have to expect such duties in importing from or exporting to the British colonies, for instance. It is said that while the peace commission made some pledges in regard to auch a-policy, it was because the commission did not feresee that the ighands were to become ap actual possession of the United States but contemplated _ some form of independent government with merely a protectorite on” the part of this country. The adage that ‘‘he laughs best who laughs last” is being’ proven in the’ cnse of the senate and the Philippine. monetary standard. Last session the house insisted on ® gold standaré for the islands, but the senate objected and as a result the present standard was maintained, although the wise ones in the house predicted at the time thata change would have to be made soon. The necessity has now arisen and the senate Philip- pine committee has favorably re- ported a bill providing for the gold standard. ‘This is the second time, during this session, that the senate hus had to yield tothe judgement of the house, the other instance being in regard to the Cuban treaty, the president, as stated above, having determined to ask the sanction of the house if the eenate does not. Generally speaking, _ politics have been eschewed in Washing- ton for this week and have given place to social gayety. While no state entertairiments will take plsce at the whitg house until New Years, the president and Mrs. Roosevelt are entertaining a num- er of guests and members of the diplomatic corps dre giving many add elaborate receptions and dinners. A certain young man took his girl tochurch. The evening was warm and the young lady com- plained of feeling’ faint. The young man smiled sweetly upon her and took something out Of his vest pocket and whispered to keep the tabletin her moath. She shyly placed it under her ‘tongue and rolled it over and oyer, but - it failed to dissolye. She felt much better however. When the ber- mon was over she slippe he tablet in her glove, being desirous of examining , the indissolvable little substance that her “‘steady”’ had given her in the house of worship. When alone -in her room she pulled of her glove and out fell a pants, button. She is looking for a new fellow. noy.—* Times Star. A Berlin dispatch says, ‘The Lutheran clergy of Saxony has. issued an order striking the name of the’ crown princess from public prayers.” Well, why not? She has left her ‘royal ‘‘lord” and if reports are true; dvesn’t hesitate to call him by his proper name— “beast.”? We doubt not that he is More in need of the prayers than BOULDER. December 29.—There were two Christmas tree celebrations in Boulder the eveninz of the 24th, one at the Presbyterian church and one atthe Catholic.

Mrs. McAloney and daughter expect to start next week- for an extended visit with relatives ip North Carolina. The ladies of the Episcopal church gave an entertainment and dance Christmas night.

There are many reasons why povliry raising can be made protitabie on a farm. One very important reason is that all the food necessary to ralre chickens is grown on the farm and ready for use. A great part of the liv- ing of a chicken can be picked up by fteelf. Especially is this true where cattle are fed extensively. Much-—of the chicken's living is wade fron things that would otherwise go to waste. The insects that wight be very bothersome indeed save for old Tid- dy's relish. Afi farm animals to thrive well need some shelter from the win- ter’s storms and the summer's heat. This in one of the most expensive items in the care of horses or cacry Animals, but with all kinds of poultry a very emall shelter will accommodate a large number. Just along the sxe dime comes the thought of inclosures, ‘AW other farm animals have to be fenced in to keep them home or tn the right place at home, while the pouliry roam over the wliole farin. Another great thing in favor of poul- try raising is the comparailve case with which it can be done. Think a minute of the drudgery necessary in making a pound of butter for sale. and then compare that with the labor re- quired in marketing o dozen cees which would give the same return To be sure, there is no time in the year when the closest attention Is needed ta make a succeas of raising poultry of any kind, but when that time is over the marketing of poultry or guthering in the eggs is very easily done and re- quires no great amount of time. There must be some way of stopping the Uttle leaks in the family pocket- book if farming is to be made succery- ful, and poultry and eggs to tase to town are just the right thing to stop that leak. If the egg and chicken mon- ey pays ali the living expenses, money from the sule of other products can be upsed to great advantage somewhere else, Poultry brings in returns all the time,. every week in the year, juet os the family need it. “Many cases hight be cited. where farmers’ wives bave paid all the living expenses of large families simply by the poultry sales, » One of. the grentest reasons why poultry. ‘raising 4s profitable on the farm is because the eggs and chickens help the,fermer’s wife In preparing the meals, Nothing we can raise on ine | farm ts tore valuable as food than eggs.
