THE leakage of senate secret session
proceedings has been creating consid-
erable of a rumpus of late, and the SEN
ate employees have been laid under sus-
picion of being too glib of tongue. Come
to simmer the whole matter down,
however. and the conclusion is reached
that it is the senators themselves who
are the leaky vessels, many of them be-
ing so thoroughly guileless as to afford
most inviting and easy marks for the
enterprising newsgatherer.

THE frequent revolutions in South
America are due to boss system.
Bosses rise and fall in those parts as
they do here, the only difference being
that in this country they wear plain
clothes and go on foot, while there they
attire themselves magniicently and
ride on horseback. In Spanish America
the people take the boss seriously, and
instead of simply kicking him out when
they grow tired of him they cut each
others throats for his honor and glory.

Senator sherman Renews His Attack.


Senator Sherman renewed his at
tack and refused to be convinced
even by the oratory of the Iowa Sen
ator. He wanted the Senate to do
the straightforward thing, and not
fizzle about it.
"Give The Fair $,5,0O0,OOO, and do
not make believe that you are de-
ceiving yourselves in giving it 20
cent silver dollar, or two 35-cent half
dollars" If the children cry tor it,
as the Senator has said they did,
"Why not give them Castoria ?" said
Sherman. He knew that it was a
popular thing with the little ones,
more popular he thought than even
the souvenir half dollars would be.
The galleries looked down in surpt Use
as these remarks came from Sherman,
and Congressman who entered the
chamber just as Mr.. Sherman uttered
them, dropped into the vacant chairs
nearest the door.
