THE political Investigations thus far
held have cost the state $4,000 and it
isn't all over yet. All this money was
spent simply to make room for hungry
politicians. The reports of the COM
mittees can in no way be depended up
on for fairness and reliability. The
decisions were strictly partisan, the
republican members reporting gully,
and the p0pullsts reporting not guilty.
The result of all this is that the state
has expended $4,000 for which 1t has
received nothing in exchange.

@, Help Us!

DR.. Sarah lIackett Stevenson, ,one
uf Of the best known physicians in
Chicago, has made unique sugges-
ton regarding the dress-reform
movement. She would put men in
skirts. In an Interview to-day adj
vocating wonen's skirts reaching
only to the eankles, declaring sweep
ing skirt, spread disease, notably
the burili of tuberculosis from eX-
pectorntions in the cars and streets,
she said: "By the way, there is
not II single graceful line in mascu-
line attire. For my part, believe
men would look better il they wore
skirts In fact, men did wear skirts
in the long ago. When men wear
short skirts on the stage how much
more graceful they appear. In fact
| think Il change in mems attire i,
to he commended, and nothing
would be more graceful for even
ing wear than knee brenches. Har
rict HOsmer calls our statues 'Be
trousered Ohituaries,' and | think
she is about right"

Not Spelling for n Fight.

There will be no fighting with
Spain as Il consequence Of the Alli-
ance incident. Spain is not in con
dition for fight with The United
States just now, even if it were not
so clearly in the wrong as it is. The
United States Navy is not large as
yet, but it is much more powerful
In every way than that Of Spain
Our navy is within striking dist
ance of the Spanish possessions in
this hemisphere, and it would not
take long to organize an army that
would make short work of the
Spanish occupation OF Cuba and
the other islands. The fact is well
understood Mt Madrid.
Besides, the government has
trouble enough at home to keep it
busy just now. Domestic dissens-
ions has caused the resignation of
the ministry, and another has not
yet been organized. There is every
reason for the Spaniard to keep on
good terms with people who could
do him serious mischief if provoked
and he is disposed just now to be
more polite than pugnacious.-

SENATOR 9 eEoReE's RETIREMENT.
One Of the Last Of tho Old Sonthcrn
Democratic Leaders.
lSt. Louis Republlc.]

st. Louis Republic.l
The announcement that Senator
George of Mississippi will retire
firm public life at the close Of his
present term recalls the case OF
General Walthnllo OF that State, who
two years ago, on account Of poor
health, left the Senate Ivy rcsigna-
tiun. Two years of his term re-.
manned and he had just been re-
elcctcd-for full term. His desire
was to leave Office altogether, but
IT was decided that he could not re-
sign the full term until he had en-
tered upon it, The term began on
March 4, and MS General Wnltl,all's
health Is now restored II Is thought
likely he may return to his senato-
rial duties. Republicans as well
as Democrats hope he will do so.
He Is regarded as one of the most
substantial and attractive men the
South ofiate years has called to
her service.
/. But the case OF Senator George
presents II different aspect and is
thought to emphasize an important
phaze Of political development. An
era in the South that has produced
great earnestness and activity and
recorded many LASTING results is
rapidly closing. The old leadership
is disappearing. The Senate par
ticulurly is showing the change.
Vance and Ransom Of North Caro-.
lima, Hampton and Butler of South
Carolina, Humton of Virginia, Coke
of Texas and now presently George
Of Mississippi make up the list.
These men were all prominent in
the movement that restored Dem
orracy to local control in their re-
spective sections in the contests
growing out of the reconstruction
laws. Some of them won their
spurs in those engagements, and
made themselves SO popular with
their people that for years the hot.
test rivalries were unable to dis
lodge them.
Hampton, Butler, Hunton, Ran
som and Camden have been dis
placed. Coke could have had an.
other term, and George, it is said
is yielding merely to IL desire fol
rest. But for one reason ar another
the old leaders are going, and soor
the South will he represented in
Congress by new and younger men

Runs of Prehistoric Kopotos.

There is now on exhibition in
London an interesting collection of
antiquities found in II recent eXca-
vation made on the site of Kopotos
in Egypt. The ancient site of Ko-
pntOs formed the Nile termination
of the Oldest trading route of the
world, the roadway passing through
the Valley of Hammanat to the
Red Sea. According to tradition,
KOptOs was one of the first settle
meDts founded by the dynastic
Egyptian immigrants when they
arrived from their home in the sa-
cred land of Punt in southwestern
Arabia. Arch9ologists have looked
with hopes of obtaining valuable
material, toward the site Of Koptos.
Prof. Petrie returned not long ago,
after spending eleven weeks in eX-
cavations there, and the collection
now on exhibition is a part Of the
result of his labors.
The site of the Temple of Koptos
WAS thoroughly cleared, and the re-
suit was the discovery of no less
than six successive temples, rang
ing from the most remote prehisto-
ric time to the age of the Ptolemys.
Hundreds of objects of great inter
est were discovered. Hitherto
Egyptian art and civilization have
presented n striking paradox. The
further back one goes the better
the art. In the lowest strata of the
Temple OF Koptos Prof. Petrie dis.
covered the remains of an ancient
settlement, which for the. first time
reveals prehistoric Egypt.
|. There is on exhibition in his col
lection massive head Of n statue
which is one Of three figures found
at a great depth beneath the PtOle
maic Temple. The statues them.
selves were thirteen feet high and
were little more than truncated
cones, the arms and legs being i'm
dicnted by hammered out lines, .and
the ears and whiskers were indi
Gated in the same way. No trace
of chisel work however, can b'
found on any of them.
