Mrs Robert Peary. The little girl Is
Marie of the same name. Tradition

For ten years that foolish stick In
waste of snow has swept Its shadow
across Mrs. Peary's life. She has had
thirteen wedding anniversaries, On
eight of them the North pole has thrust
itself between her and her husband.
Mrs. Peary had Just been married TO
the lieutenant and was ready to cast
covetous eyes east, west north or
south. as the case might be, or, more
strictly speaking as the lieutenant
might be, The lieutenant wanted the
North pole.
'we'il go and get It," said Mrs.
Peary.
They went. They lived, loved, longed
and learned--which Is accurate. as wen
as alliterative-but the pole declined

Herbert Bridgman Is the president OF

turning Lieutenant Peary loose In the
Arctic zone and then going back In
year or two to see II he can find him.
Twice he has left the explorer up there
and twice has gone back and found
him. About month ago he turned

LIGHT ON THE PEARY CASE.

Halifax, ~ s.--Captain Joseph
biakeny who was master OF the pea,y
relief steamer Erik. arrived in this city
and told the story of the trouble he
tween Lieutenant Peary and DR.. ped-
TICK Captain Blakeny said.
'Dr DERRICK wished TO have com.
mand Of the Windward during Mr.
Feary's absence. He was ambitious
MI Peary refused to grant this re-.
quest to Dr. DERRICK.
Soon afterward Dr. DedrIck ten.
dered his resignation to Mr.. Peary. The
resignation was promptly accepted. and
the members OF the party considered
that the acceptance of the resignation
was a surprise to Dr. Dodrck The
latter evidently thought The matter
would be dealt with by Peary in the
same manner as was his former resig-
nation, last spring,
Or DERRICK Withdrew his preyious

and he and the doctor agreed 10 20 on
as II nothing had happ ned. But har-
mony did not follow, and when bed
rick offered his resignation second
time, after having asked for the tenn.
porary command of the Windward and
having been refused, Mr. Peary ac-
cepted it.
The day that Dr.. DERRICK was in
formed that his resignation had been
accepted he had his trunks sent aboard
the Erik, and every one thought that

judgment. In facing new industrial
conditions, the whole history of the
world shows that legislation will gen.
orally be both unwise and ineffective
unless undertaken after calm inquiry
and with sober self-restraint. Much
of the legislation directed at the trusts
would have been exceedingly mischev-
ious had it not also been entirely in
effective. In accordance with a we'll
known sociological law, the ignor-
ant OF reckless agitator has been the
really effective friend of the evils
which he has been nomlnally opposing.
In dealing with business interests, for
the Government to undertake by crude
and ill-considered legislation to do what
may turn out to be bad, would be to
incur the risk of such far-reaching
national disaster that it would be pref
erable to undertake nothing at all. The
men who demand the impossible to
the undesirable serve as the allies of
the forces with which they are nomi-
nally at war, for they hamper those
who would endeavor to find out in
rational fashion what the wrongs real
ly are and to what extent and in what
manner it is practicable to apply reme-

or hand but by gambling In any form,
pre always a source OF menace not only
to themselves but to others. II the
business world loses It's head, 1t loses
what Legislation cannot supply. Fun
damentaily the welfare of each citizen,
and therefore the welfare of the ag-
gregato Of citizens which makes the
Nation, must rest upon individual
thrift and energy, resolution and ill.,
telligence. Nothing can take the place
of this Individual capacity; but wise
legislation and honest and Intelligent
administration can give ii the fullest
scope, the largest opportunity to work
to good effect.
The tremendous ami highly COM
plex Industrial development which
went on with ever accelerated rapidity
during the latter half of the nineteenth
century brings up face to face, at the
beginning of the twentieth, with very
serious social problems. The old laws.
and the old customs which had almost
the binding force of law, were once
quite sufficient to regulate the accum-
ulation and distribution of wealth.
Since the Industrial changes which
have so enormously increased the pro-
ductive power of mankind they are no
longer surncient.
The growth of cities has gone on be-
yond comparison faster than the
growth of the country, and the upbuild-
ing of the great industrial centers has
meant, a startling increase, not merely
in the aggregate Of wealth, but in the
number of very large individual, and
especially of very large corporate,
fortunes. The creation Of these great
corporate fortunes has not been due
to the tariff nor to any other govern
mental action, but to natural causes
in the business world, operating in
other countries as they operate in our
own.
The process has aroused much all
tagonism, great part Of which is
wholly without warrant. 1t is not
true that as the rich have grown rich
er the poor have grown poorer. On
the contrary, never before has the aver
age man, the wageworker, the farmer,
the small trader, been SO well off as
in this country and at the present time.
There have been abuses connected with
the accumulation of wealth; yet it re-
mains true that a fortune accumulated
in legitimate business can be accumu
lated by the person specially benefited
only ON conuition of comforting i'm
mense incidental benefits upon others.
Successful enterprise, of the type
which benefits all mankind, can only
exist If the conditions are such as TO
offer great prizes as the rewards OIL

A GRIM COMMENTARY.

A grim commentary upon the folly
ed by the attitude Of the law toward
this very criminal who had just taken
the life of the President. The people
would have torn him limb from limb
il it had not been that the law he
defied was at once invoked In his be-
half. So far from his deed being com-
mitted on behalf of the people against
the Government, the Government was
obliged at once to exert its full police
power to save him from instant death
at the hands of the people. Moreover,
his deed worked not the slightest dis
location In our governmental system,
and the danger of recurrence of sucn
deeds, no matter how great II might
grow, would work only in the direc-
tion of strengthening and giving harsh
ness to the forces of order. No man
will ever be restrained from becoming
President by any fear as to his person
al safety. If the risk to the President's
life became great, it would be that
the office would more and more come
to be filled by men of spirit which
would make them resolute and merci-
less In dealing with. every friend Of
disorder. This great country will not
fall into anarchy, and If anarchists
should ever become serious menace
to its institutions. they would not mere
ly be stamped out, but would involve
in their own ruin every active or pas
sive sympathizcr with their doctrines.
The American people are slow to
wrath, but when their wrath is once
kindled 1t burns like q consuming
flame.

DANGER IN TRUSTS.

All this is true; and yet it is also true
that there are real and grave evils, one
of the chief being over-capitalization
because of its many baleful consequent
ces; and a resolute and practical effort
must he made to correct these evils.
There is widespread conviction in
the minds Of the American people that
the great corporations known as trusts
are in certain of their features and ten
denotes hurtful to the general welfare.
This springs from no spirit OF
envy or uncharitableness, nor
lack of pride in the great in
austrial achievements that have
placed this country at the head
of the nations struggling for CONNER
cial supremacN. 1t does not rest upon
lack of intelligent appreciation of
the necessity of meeting changing ana
changed conditions of trade with new
methods nor upon ignorance of the
fact that combination of capital in
the effort to accomplish great things Is
necessary when the worlds progress
demands that great things be done. 1t
Is based upon sincere conviction
should be, not prohibited, but super
vised and within reasonable limits con-
trolled; and in my Judgment this con-
vlction is right.
1t is no limitation upon property
rights or freedom of contract to re-
qulre than when men receive from Gov
ernment the privilege of doing busi'
ness under corporate form, which frees
them from individual responsibility,
and enables them to call into their en-
terprises the capital of the public, they

PROSPERITY.

During the last five years business
confidence has been restored and the
Nation is to be congratulated because
Of its present abounding prosperity.
Such prosperity can never be created
by law alone, although It is easy
enough to destroy It by mischevlous
laws. If the hand Of the Lord Is heavy
upon any country, II flood or drought
comes, human wisdom is powerless to
avert the calamity. Moreover, no law
can guard us against the consequences
Of our own folly. The men who are
idle or credulous, the men who seek
gains not by genuine work with head
