WASHINGTON LETTER. <lb/>
From Our <lb/>
Washington, D. v. <lb/>
Rumor is still rife concerning <lb/>
the Isthmian Canal treaty, all <lb/>
is conjecture. I it on no less <lb/>
a of <lb/>
Cabinet that the salient points of <lb/>
the treaty with Great have <lb/>
been agreed upon and that <lb/>
treaty will be completed nub- <lb/>
milted to Senate as soon as <lb/>
Congress assembles. Cabinet <lb/>
Minister, who will not permit the <lb/>
use of his name, expresses be- <lb/>
lief treaty will be perfect- <lb/>
satisfactory to Senate <lb/>
the people. He further that <lb/>
everyone in the White House and <lb/>
the State department has been <lb/>
given notice that the President <lb/>
will be seriously displeased if <lb/>
details are made public by anyone <lb/>
other than himself. <lb/>
It is well understood in inner <lb/>
circles that the President finds <lb/>
in a serious dilemma in re- <lb/>
to his recommendations to <lb/>
Congress, concerning our relation <lb/>
with Cuba. He appreciate <lb/>
how essential to Cuban <lb/>
good will and lo Cuban prosperity <lb/>
is the admission to the United <lb/>
States, free of duty, of <lb/>
sugar. On the other band, <lb/>
such would bring <lb/>
about his head a swarm of <lb/>
protests from the beet sugar <lb/>
producers of the North and West <lb/>
and from sugar producers <lb/>
of the South, South in which <lb/>
he has strong hopes of building up <lb/>
a brand republican <lb/>
There the matter stands. <lb/>
The Schley Court of Inquiry <lb/>
still holds daily sessions. Judge <lb/>
Advocate announces that <lb/>
he will not be to rest bis <lb/>
case before the middle of next week <lb/>
and Mr. estimates that it <lb/>
will be the middle of November <lb/>
before the defense is concluded. <lb/>
It does not appear to hove dawned <lb/>
upon the Navy Department that <lb/>
if Judge Advocate were to <lb/>
prove bk case against Admiral <lb/>
Schley the whole of <lb/>
would stand proven of the <lb/>
gravest dereliction of. duly de- <lb/>
serving of Severest censure for <lb/>
not having long ago brought Schley <lb/>
before a court-martial on the <lb/>
charges of cowardice and <lb/>
Were to prove <lb/>
the case be has attempted Schley <lb/>
would deserve lo be drummed out <lb/>
of the service. <lb/>
committee has <lb/>
adjourned to Nov. The <lb/>
is practically in and it will, <lb/>
it is presumed, have little more to <lb/>
do than render a decision when it <lb/>
reconvenes. <lb/>
There Am- <lb/>
who has started <lb/>
for Washington, ostensibly to con- j <lb/>
l fee with the President in regard <lb/>
to the canal treaty, comes the <lb/>
President's request that he <lb/>
will bring with him his <lb/>
Wolcott, of Colo- <lb/>
named as his successor. <lb/>
The only Information the <lb/>
most persistent interrogation <lb/>
elicit from the State Department is <lb/>
that nothing is known of <lb/>
fact Mr. Roosevelt is a <lb/>
decided his West- <lb/>
friends would say <lb/>
that Mr. is not, some <lb/>
people describe him as supine, <lb/>
probably gave rise to rumor, <lb/>
together with the fact that Mr. <lb/>
Wolcott has recently acted as a <lb/>
special to the Court <lb/>
St. James. Nevertheless change <lb/>

division of as <lb/>
to the particular gentleman who <lb/>
should be honored on this occasion <lb/>
to the highest office within the <lb/>
gift of our people. While <lb/>
I heard considerable <lb/>
speculation along this line. A <lb/>
gentleman who is not supposed to <lb/>
be a candidate, this occasion, <lb/>
has many friends. He resides <lb/>
west of of course, but <lb/>
so very far west. If his can- <lb/>
is announced, it will <lb/>
prise many of the politicians and <lb/>
play ducks and drakes with the <lb/>
chances of several them. His <lb/>
friends, however, say he is <lb/>
of any and really en- <lb/>
titled to high the hands <lb/>
of the should have <lb/>
been extended before. <lb/>
As to Governor Aycock, he <lb/>
is not a candidate actual <lb/>
or implied, if his own words are to <lb/>
be so far as this <lb/>
is concerned, he searches <lb/>
farther for I ho fact. <lb/>
Messrs. S. Overman, R. If. <lb/>

to be candidates and each has <lb/>
a large very devoted follow- <lb/>
That either would honor the <lb/>

TAX A MISTAKE. <lb/>
It it Better to Encourage <lb/>
In political campaigns we often <lb/>
hear much stress laid upon the <lb/>
quest ion, who pays the tax f and <lb/>
the argument of the goes <lb/>
to show that this burden always <lb/>
falls upon the consumer. At any <lb/>
rate this is good Democratic doc- <lb/>
the ease which it <lb/>
does not apply is the exception <lb/>
rather than the rule. It is <lb/>
questionably true as regards tariff <lb/>
the consumer pays it; it is <lb/>
true when it comes to a cir- <lb/>
who patronize it have <lb/>
it to pay. <lb/>
It is the circus in particular that <lb/>
runs the mind of TilE <lb/>
in this just There <lb/>
was more or less talk when the <lb/>
circus was here Tuesday about its <lb/>
costing people more usual to <lb/>
see it. We spoke to some of the <lb/>
proprietors of the circus <lb/>
this, the reply was that taxes <lb/>
I were so very high <lb/>
j that they were compelled to charge <lb/>
I more lose money. <lb/>
Circus people, like those engaged <lb/>
other business, are in it for <lb/>
what they can get out of it, <lb/>
unless they can make money the <lb/>
i business must stop. when <lb/>
I you route to think of the expense <lb/>
j of maintaining a big circus it is <lb/>
just enormous. To be- <lb/>
with there is outlay of <lb/>
of thousands of dollars <lb/>
equipment, with the daily running <lb/>
the thousands <lb/>
And when it comes to taxes, this <lb/>
item cost the circus <lb/>
for Stale, for county <lb/>
and for for showing in <lb/>
Greenville Tuesday. <lb/>
Now another question or two. <lb/>
Is a circus an evil, or docs it prove <lb/>
a benefit to the town it visits <lb/>
thing is sure, John <lb/>
circus left large sums of money in <lb/>
Greenville Tuesday, besides what <lb/>
the people who come to see it <lb/>
The business got the benefit <lb/>
this, what helps the <lb/>
j people helps the town, What <lb/>
else a circus would have <lb/>
brought such a crowd of people to <lb/>
i Some of the merchants <lb/>
tell us that their trade Tuesday <lb/>
was equal to what it is the day <lb/>
before Christmas, one went so <lb/>
far as to say it would be a paying <lb/>
investment for the merchants to <lb/>
make up the tax for n big circus to <lb/>
come around occasionally rather <lb/>
than not have them come. <lb/>
And when it comes to the <lb/>
what affords them so much <lb/>
amusement as a circus Hundreds <lb/>
and hundreds of them, too, only <lb/>
see the part that is free, but the <lb/>
street parade what takes place <lb/>
outside the <lb/>
the circus people much to give it <lb/>
is a good show itself and <lb/>
come many miles just to see <lb/>
that, and they get it free. How- <lb/>
ever, those people spend money <lb/>
town just the same, and the town <lb/>
gets the benefit of their presence. <lb/>
And who is glad to see a big <lb/>
crowd town t <lb/>
So upon the whole we argue that <lb/>
it is a mistake to tax circuses <lb/>
reasonably. First, because the <lb/>
tux is to come out the <lb/>
pockets the people, they <lb/>
ought to have the opportunity of a <lb/>
day of amusement now and <lb/>
without paying too dearly for it. <lb/>
because they bring u large <lb/>
crowd to town whose coming great- <lb/>
benefits every branch of <lb/>
the business men <lb/>
being the mainstay buck-bone <lb/>
of the town, anything helps <lb/>
them should be encouraged. <lb/>
