HIDING INSTEAD OF SEEKING.

Between Senator Hill and ex- Speaker
Sulzer. the United States Senate is hay
Ing hard task In Its attempt to change
the charge that Senators Rambled in
sugar certificates pending the debate on
the sugar schedule into an arraignment
OF newspaper correspondents for not be-
trayins their professional obligations.
1t IL common report at Washington
that Senator's held secret meetings with
Mr.. Havemeyer pending the considera-
tion of the sugar schedule. and that
they speculated in the stock and made
money through the fluctuations In the
market consequent on the Senate's ac-
tion. What does II matter where the
newspaper correspondent obtained his
first knowledge OF that report? Its
truth or falsty must be sought from the
Senators accused. The side issue of the
contumacy OF witnesses Is raised to de-
feat the real inquiry and to cover up
the truth, as Mr. SulZer charges.
THE Evening World' told it's readers
that the investigation OF the plain, di-
rect charge that Senators had been
offered bribes to vote to continue the
Mckinley protective tariff in existence
was loaded down with other matter for
the purpose OF defeating real investiga-
ton. The result proves the truth OF this
assertion. The investigating commit
tees work is sham and n fraud.

MEMORIAL DAY.

To-day the nation shows her respect
and affection for her heroes by decorat-
ing the graves Of her dead soldiers and
sailors who gave UP their lives to pre-
serve the American Union and make II
stronger. Rrander and more glorious
than ever before.
1t was a happy thought to dedicate
day to such an object. 1t keeps alive
patriotic sentiments in peoples minds
II creates respect for bravery and
devotion by the constantly recurring
tribute OF Memorial Day observances
1t Is n proof OF the nations constancy
to the memory of her heroes for how
few OF us think OF thus yearly honoring
the resting places OF those we have
loved and lost In this world? BY spread
ing its tributes over all graves without
distinction II has done It's share towards
burying the animosities of the war and
restoring union and fraternity every
where.
All honor to the day. May it's observ-
ance remain with us not to fHmilarize
us with the horrors OF war. but to re-
mind us of the blessings of peace; not to
recall our dissensions, but to remind us
that we are now united American
people and that bravery and devotion
are qualities that adorn the men OF
every section OF the country, North and
South, East and West.

The Third Avenue Gable Company has
set n good example to other corpora tions
by raising the wages OF It's conductors
from two dollars and twenty 1--we cents

pany Is the more commendable because
entirely voluntary. The men did not
ask for the increase. although they are
gratified and grateful.
The pay ut the new rate Is not too
great. Both conductors and gripmen
occupy responsible and trying positions
They are called upon to exercise unceas-
Ing vigilance to avoid accidents. The
constant lookout for passengers. and the
stopping and starting OF trains when
passengers board the cars or alight

obliging and. above all, patient. If these
duties are faithfully performed they

II ought to be. II II Is to afford the en-
ployees fair living. 1t Is hard for IA
married man to support family on two

a remembrance OF anything they have been

1t Is the only way in which they their
