GEKEUALKOOTH TO AMERICA
Tells People of This Country Hon to
Pattern Model Nation
\Yw York, April 6. -General William
Booth whose 80th birthday is to be
celebrated throughout the world next
Saturday, has replied to the mcores
of congratulatory cablegrams already
| received from state governors, mayors
of leading American cities and other
i men of prominence, with a message to
the American people. The message
given out at the American headquar-
ters of the Salvation Army here today
j reads as follows:
■ After spending eighty years in this
i world with almost countless opportuni-
ties for observing the purposes for
which men generally live, and the dis-
appointment tbey so commonly suffer,
it seems reasonable that 1 should have
formed some opinion as to the course
they ought to follow if they are to have
ai.y ieii success.
| So on this, my eightieth birthday. I
tell the American people this: If they
will seek the honor of God, the reign of
righteousness, the welfare of the friend
less poor, the riches that endure for-
ever with the same self-Bacrlficing ac-
tivity with which they seek the wealth
and pleasures of this world, they will
have a good chance of finding that life
of satisfaction which now so- often
them, and of building up a

Years of effort and of arguments by
the state department failed of success
In reaching a basis of settlement of the
disputes with Venzuela which finally
came as a result of suggestions made
hy President Gomez, after Castro left
Venezuela and when that country was
being harassed by the action of the
Dutch war vessels sent there by Hol-
land following the breaking off of
frien"y relations between the two
nations. Secretary Root received in a
cordial spirit the advances made by 7rea.ty w,H form the burden of the;
phalt privileges and hardwood con-
cessions; and the case of the Orinoco
steamship compnny which claims ex-
clusive rights of navigation ou bran-
ches of the Orlnoio river. In the two
latter etses the court is to decide pri-
marily whether the Judgments of
previous arbitrations or decisions of
umpires were correct and are to stand
and if not then they are to be heard
on their merits. Three arbitrators are
to be appointed and as in the case of
the fisheries dispute mote than a year
will elapse before"h decision is ren-
dered. On the part of the United
States the preparation of the cases will
not be a formidable proposition, as
there Is already a mass of data bear-
ing on them available which formed
the basis of the arsuuents made to
President Castro in behalf of arbitra-

extent after all, questions of fact lerge-

County Commissioners in Session
The broad of county commissioners
are again in Bession today, but nothing
of any gi-eat importance is being con-
sidered.
Tomorrow the question of bridging
the Clmaror. river in Mannford town-
ship will be voted upon. The town-
ship it is understood has offered to
bear a portion of the expense of con-
structing the bridge, but it appears
that there is no warrant in law for
such procedure, so it seems to be up
to the county to either construct the
