her any good. | saw by an ADVERTISE

Mayor Van Wyck of New York city
may not be removed from office on account
Of his relations with the ice trust in the
city of which he is the chief executive, but
he forfeited the respect of right thinking
people Saturday, when he was a witness
at the hearing before Justice Gaynor. He
admitted that he acquired the ownership
of 4200 shares of ice trust stock practically
without payment on his part. The money
to pay for the stock was borrowed on time
notes, with the stock in the ice trust as
collateral. The dividends of 10 per cent,
which were expected, would give the
mayor an opportunity to pay the time notes
without recourse to outside funds. Sever
al of the mayors statements about the
stock were contradicted on oath by three
of his most intimate friends. The mayor
also showed lamentable ignorance of the
dongs of the men he has appointed TO con-
duct the affairs of the city, and the presi
dent of the dock board confessed that
while he held ice stock he leased piers to
the ice trust without putting them up at
auction, as is the usual custom.

Coolidge, the Boston Journals Washing.
ton correspondent, says the Republican
national platform will dwell with special
emphasis upon two points; One, the ne
cessity of continuing the Republican party
in power that there may be no sudden
shock to the business Of the country, and
in order that the prosperity which has fol-
lowed the Mckinley administration may
remain. The other point is the approval
of the insular policy of the administration
the Endorsement of what President Nc
Kinley and the Republican Congress have
done since the beginning of the war with
Spain, and an appeal to the country to al
low no break in the policy upon which the
administration has entered and the execu-
tion of which is now at its most critical
stage.

Judge Fogler of the supreme court Of
Maine holds that judge or recorder of a
municipal court has no right to issue on
Sunday a warrant TO search dwelling for
liquor, and that patrolman or other Off
Ger has no right TO make such search
without a warrant. The police officials say
that under this ruling the kitchen bar-rooms
will flourish while the saloons will be clos
ed, and that it will be practically impossi-
bic to restrict the sale of liquor on Sunday.
The decision is regarded the most damag-
ing blow ever struck at the prohibitory law
in Maine. 1t is admitted that after this it
will be far more difficult than ever before
to restrict the sale of liquor.

Ex-Gov. Woodbury. again exhibited his
capacity for Shopping over" when he
rushed into print TO charge eX-Gov. Page
with using a corruption fund of thousands
of dollars in advancing his political cam
paign. People who remember how Page
defeated Woodbury. for the governorship in
the hot fight of 1890, and who also recall
the matrimonial ties which bind the Wood
bury and Powers families, will diagnose
Mr.. Woodbury's ailment as congested
spleen. The charge made by Woodbury.
appeared just before important caucuses
were held in Addison county, at time
when Mr.. Page could not answer until af-
ter the caucuses had elected delegates.
After making the damaging charges against
Mr.. Page publicly, Mr. Woodbury., by let
ter and telegram, added provisos to his
original proposition, making it in such
form that acceptance on Mr.. Pages part
was out of the question. The first effect
of Mr. Woodbury's effusion may have been
to weaken Mr.. Pages candidacy, but the
ultimate effect will be TO cast odlum on
Mr.. Woodbury..
