These replies speak volumes for the
much maligned critics, and lead us to
the double inference, that not only have
the publishers confidence in the ability
and integrity of the reviewers, but that
they themselves (publishers) are

of their profession. Indeed, the whole

If this is true, we appeal to Attorney

Old Joe. the N;aht Watch.

[From the Pail Mall Gazette, London.]
"Old Joe" is in the employ of the
Lambeth water works, and is well and
favorably known. He has been night
Waterman for many years. in the
course Of which he has undergone ex-
periences. What with wet and cold, he
contracted rheumatism and sciatica,
which fairly doubled him up, and it be-

good wife and himself depended for a

Old Joe's painful condition, presented
him with a bottle of st. Jacobs Oil. and
told him to use it. Old Joe followed the
advice given; he crawled home the
next morning and bade his wife rub his
aching back with the st. Jacobs Oil "a
gentleman gave him." and undoubtedly
his wife did rub, for when Old Joe wen.
en- duty at night he met his friend and
benefactor, to whom he remarked:
Them oils you gave me. guv-nor, did
me a doing; they wuz like pins and
needles for time, but look at me now"
and Old Joe began to run and jump
about like young colt. All pain, stiff
ness and soreness had gone; he had
been telling everybody he met what ST.
Jacobs Oil had done for him. Old Joe
says now he has but one ambition in.
life, and that is to always to be able
to keep bottle of st. Jacobs Oil by

in the world.

do not any of them owe their places In
any way to Mr.. Cummins. He has not
the influence to command places IN
Washington except indirectly, and so
there are few who have reason to con-
slider him in that direction.
On the other hand, Secretary Shaw
is the pride of most Iowa men at the
capital of the nation. He is considered
as making a name for himself in the
way he is handling the treasury de-
partment. He is considered as one of
the most picturesque figures in the
and as one of the members of
that august body who is as close to the
president of the United States as any
public man. And when one is idolizing
Mr.. Shaw. he can not be idolizing Mr..
Cummins, too: at least, that seems to
be the prevailing idea.

ernor Cummins. Here is the crisis
where it is shown that Mr.. Cummins
has still to gain for himself national in
tiuence If he is going to. Because of the
differences on the tariff question and
minis in the field. politicians here dc
not hesitate to side with Mr.. Hender-
son, except as to his method, and to
score Mr.. Cummins.
The absolute stupefaction caused al
the very first by Mr. Cummins' action
was cleared up gradually as the details
of the matter came out and the general
idea began to form and be
given utterance that the rea-
son behind Mr.. Henderson's reason
was Governor Cummins and his follow
ing in the state. 1t can not be denied
that Governor Cummins' tariff revision
cure for the trusts is not popular In
Washington, and by many he is re-
garded as a too rapid and rather un-
wise enthusiast rather than a national
leader.
Many people have habit of CHASING
Governor Cummins, Senator Dolliver
and Director of the Mint Roberts to-
gether. However, according to the
Washington side of the matter, this is
hardly proper classification. 1t is de-
clared that these three men were re-
Gently thrown together simply by their
similarity of views on the tariff revis-
ion matter, and that there is no more
Of combine or understanding between
them than there is between any of the
other Iowa delegation.
1t is not to be doubted that Messrs.
Dolliver and Roberts are very close to
each other, and no doubt together In
entire harmony on national as we'll as
state issues. This condition Of affairs
is accepted as a settled matter in
Washington. Governor Cummins has
only been put into the Dolliver- Roberts
