Tho associated press correspondent has
been able TO obtain the details Of the last
moments Of President Carnot.
When the president regained conscious
ness after faintIng he asked for pen, but
when |, was placed in his hand he was too
weak 10 write. A little wbilo before he
died the president whispered for Colonel
Chamoine, one of the leading officials OF
his military household. The colonel ap-
preached him and the dying man pressed
his hand and said: "Je sus touche. bion
touche" c'I am wounded, badly
wounded'O.
Tho body of Carnot was taken In the pre-
lecture and placed on train that will
convey it to Paris. Casket containing tho
remains was placed on gun carriage.
The square in front OF the prefecture was
densely thronged, as were all streets Lead
ing TO the railway station. Troops and
gendarmes kept tho route clear. The
procession included all tho civil and mill
iary authorities of Lyons.

When General Butler was in com.

priest and poet, had been expressing
rebellious sentiments and had said he
would even refuse to hold funeral serv-
lees for dead Yankee. General Butler
sent for him in haste and began round
ly scolding him for expressing such
un-Christian aud rebeliieus sentiments.

prime of life, he has accumulated for.
tune so vast that an ordinary mind is
bewidered in trying to compute it. The
] wealth got in America makes this man
! welcome guest and boon companion
among the potentates and princes OF
Europe.
Even the wild creatures, the denizens
OF prairie, forest. stream and lake, we
| let them be exterminated that their
hides may make millionaire. Having
gained princely fortune it need not be
wondered at If the possessor should dis-
dain to live among so simple people,
and go with his millions to live among
princes and mobiles.
Perhaps If we would stop to re fleet on
our folly we would not be so perfectly
satisfied with ourselves as lawmakers as
we now appear to be.
Surely it is not wise on the part of a
great people to let those resources, so
great and 80 necessary to all, be seized
by few.
There is not single one of the great
resources named, nor of all other nat
ural resources OF the country, but OF
right belongs equally to the whole peo-
pie, and should be used only for the
good OF the whole people.
1t may be said that no wrong is done
the people if the men who develop those
resources gain only fair profit on their
enterprise and capital invested. Let the
vast private fortunes that now menace
the very existence of free institutions,
let the swarms of idle toilers, answer
that objection.
Not only all the great natural re-
sources of the country have passed into
private ownership, but the privilege OF
citizens living In different states, and
even in the same state, to trade and
communicate with each other is con-
trolled by corporations
These are among the most vital DOW
ers that can be exercised by any gov
eminent, and when such powers have
passed from the people themselves to
piutocracy or oligarchy, the freedom
that remains is more seeming than real.
Wealth speedily becomes power, and
even short possession is declared vested
right No matter how corrupt the
means may be by which wealth is ac-
CURED, even if by open robbery, if the |
successful robber can transmit the plum |
DER to hIs descendants, then it is de. !
clared vested right, and any suggestion |
OF restoration ia met by the cry of in
Jury to the innocent" possessor of the
stolen goods.
Even the men who applaud the rob-
berry OF the church and confscation of
church property by Henry VIII in
England, and the confiscatlon of all the
church property in France, are prompt
to declare that vast property gained by
corrupt meansin our own country is too
sacred to even question the title of the
possessors.
But IN the present temper OF the peo-
pie OF the United States it would not be
safe to conclude mat the cry of vested
rights would always be complete pro.
lection to all whohave gained vast for
times by eeizlng wat the Creator pro.
vided for all his creatures.

THE "Boss" IN POLITICS.

Product Which the Trainers of the
Constitution Dreamed Not or.
! Baltimore News: The boss is the
most powerful factor in American poll
tics; and yet he is irresponsible. He
belongs not to the legislative, the exec.
utlve or the judicial departments of the
government. The founders of our con-
stltution, the sages who drew the in
struments under which our present gov
ernments are carried on, apparently had
no idea that bossism would evolve from
tie product of their wisdom, and they
made no provision for calling to account
an officer powerful enough to appoint
all the officers whose duties they de-
fined, but holding no official position
himself. The law provides for the fire.
quent election OF mayors and governors,
with view to holding them to strict
accountability, but the man who rules
and moves the mayor fills no place for
the mismanagement Of which he can be
impeached, and is never called upon at
an election to give an account of his
handling of his power.
The boss sits in retirement He never
even talks to reporter unless he gets
the big head or loses his nerve. The
successful boss, whose word ia law, gives
his orders and ia obeyed. While he sell
dom goes far enough in defiance of pub
lie opinion to rick very much, yet he
never puts himself in the way of inviting
public criticism by public discussion OF
his views and aims. He knows that the
less he i5 heard of the more he can do.
The boss is the last outcome OF the
spols system. His growth begins as a
small dealer in ward offices. In the
great cities he hnde a congenial atmos-
phere. He generally begins his career
by acquiring influence among his neigh
bors and his fellow-workmen; or, if he
is saloon keeper, first among his Gus
toners. lie taxes part in the primaries,
follows leader in primary fights, throws
his votes as he ia told, and becomes one
OF ''the boys" When he reaches a
point where he Gowns" a certain num-
Der OF votes ard has a following Of
"heelers" whom he can control, he be
comes power in the ward.
He can then demand and obtain an
office. From the organization that rules
the ward he ls promoted to mem bership
on the central or executive COMMITTEES
OF his party. He becomes one of the
small group called the ring" which
pulls the wires all over the city, runs
the conversions, picks out the candl-
dates, arranges the ''slstes." and which
aims, not only to hold Office, but to gar
rson all the city aud state and national
Offices with mercenary workers.
At this stage OF his career the coming
boss begins to make money. He is now
in the position to influence the letting
Of contracts, and to get share in the
proceeds of the sale of legislation HIS
fortune begins to grow and he sees
riches before him.

~
An interesting yet extremely ridicu-
lous question has found its wav into the
California courts. The problems to be
solved in ell seriousness by the courts
are these rs a contract of marriage
stipulated to expire at the end of ak
months or year valid document? If
the document be valid, is the limitation
good? Does the Limitation invalidate
the contract? Can the relations of the
contracting parties be legally laid aside
at the end of the prescribed time Z?
Would child born after the limit has
expired, and were the contract not re-
newed, be a legitimate child? ?" 1t seems
impossible that in this day such cues
ton should be raised, but as matter OF
fact there has developed among the
California lawyers some difference OF
opinion on the subject.
Six months ago Edward M. Elkus and
Lille Mabney, of San Francisco, entered
into contract ITO be married for a
period OF six months" A few dave
ago they again repaired to a notarv's
office and caused a second contract to be
drawn up for another ak months. y
The young couple maintain that they
have the advice OF good lawyers that the
contract is good. The situation is suoh
novel one that several reputable law
yers have persuaded the young connie
to permit the question to be submitted
to court Of adjudication. just how TO
get this before the court is the Question.
1t can hardly be accomplished by di.
vorce proceedings, neither could it be
accomplished by criminal process
Lawyers. however, declare that thew
will find way of bringing the matter TO
judicial notice, in order that the ridden.
lous proposition NAV be settled at once.
Some of the best lawyers in the state
have taken an interest in the matter.
MANY prominent citizens declare that il
10 against public policy for such ques-
tion to be dignitied by doubt for any
length of time. On the other hand,
there are few lawyers who consent to
maintain the strict legality Of the terms

developing the new growth and flowers
during the coming spring and
summer. If the thin and weak
wood is cut out and all the strength
left to go into the best branches, the
result will be a stronger plant and finer
flowers. Whether rose bush should be
pruned much or little, depends upon the
variety of the plant. Those which flower
from vigorous young wood may be
pruned qnite severely, while those which
form flower buds mostly from old wood
should have as many OF the old branches
left on as are in keeping with the shape
and size of the bush. But in either case
the bushes should be trimmed as early
in the winter season as posaibla.

he becomes the boss.
The boss can afford to do without Of
nee. There are enough people anxious
to buy his influence to keep him in re-
ceipt OF good income.
His influence is, of course, for sale.
A man does not work to be boss Just for
fun.
How is this state of things to be met ?
Ii you bride mayor you can be pun
lshed and so can the bribed official. But
the boss who makes the mayor and his
whole force of subordlnates can be hired
to influence them as readily as can any
lawyer be retained to address q iurv !;
and the boss's fee for accomplishing
through the mayor or council any de-
sred purpose is a matter for bus ness
discussion. Why should the boss be
permitted to sell his influence over off
Gals who would themselves be open to
punishment if they were bought? This
state OF things is an anomaly for which

terminated in those streams.
A few men gain vast wealth in the
business of catching and canning
salmon. In their esgerness to accumu-
late riches these msn would utterly
destroy the fish, regardless of the inter
ests of their fellow creatures of their
own time or coming generations.
But the same spirit OF reckless greed
appears in other directions. No fact in
political science lie better established
than that the destruction of forests re-.
suits in barrenness to any country where
it may be done. And yet few indi-
viduals. or corporations, are permitted
to seize the forests OF the United States
and sweep them out of existence. But
our own forests we try to protect the
forests Of other countries by heavy
tax on ell imported timber. Fuel is to
a civilized people q necessary of life
and no country in the world is more
bountifully supplied than our own.
But here, too, individuals and corpo-
rations are permitted to seize the vast
coal fields and dole out, at prices of
their own making, the fuel that is
actually necessary to the very lives OF
millt g OF their fellow-citizens.
- Light is another necessary of prime
Importance, and here also nature has
been lavish in her gifts to our country.
But we have permitted one huge cor
poration to seize the petroleum sources
Of the country and use them for build
ing up enormous fortunes.
So vast is the wealth accumulated by
the Standard Oil corporation that in any
contest with the people that concern
could now bid defiance to the govern
ment OF any state, or even the national
government, unless there should be an
appeal to arms.
In the manufacture of iron the
United States now leads the world. No
,ther country has such great supplies
'f the finest ore for making all kinds of
ron and steel.
But these great resources, like all the
sther5, we allow individuals or CORPORA
lions to seize and use for their own
lggraniizement. One example is as
rood as 81 to show what results from
