Congratulations and Consultations.

When Mr.. Clement closed he was
greeted on the stage by several of his
audience who held views in accord
with his utterances, and later he talked
the question of the hour over at his
private car with a small company who
were invited there.
Mr.. Clement devoted much attention
to the liquor situation as it is in Rut-
land, and also %belabored the proceed
ings in court, reviewing the eXcep-
tional cases under the old law where
tremendous fines and many years of
imprisonment were imposed. He re-
peated the story of court officials grow
ing rich from their share of the fines,
including the strangers question on
seeing a fine house in Rutland, What
states attorney lives here?" This
part seemed irrelevant to many, as it
had no application to the law as it
exists today.
He pointed out the distinction be-
tween vice and crime which the law,
as he claimed, failed to make, and

Professional Envy.

An Italian philosopher has amused
himself by constructing a scale Of de-
erees for the measurement Of profess
sional envy. The highest point in this
envy mcasurer is ten.
Architects Gre happily placed lowest
on the scale. They register only l;
advocates aad priests and military
men are ranged at ., and In the as
cending scale he gives us professors
of science and literature, 4; journal
lists, 5; authors, s; physicians, o; ac-
tors and actresses, 10. The small
amount Of envy among architects is
held to be due to their precise, severe
and rigid studies. The same thing APP
plies to advocates.
Among the clergy envy is found
mostly in preachers. In the military
career envy is quiescent in time OF
peace, but can become acute in time
Of war. Envy makes men Of science
and literature lead solitary lives, diff
dent of each other Among physicians
envy is still more prevalent, and they
do not spare their colleagues, often
terming them charlatans. In the the
utrical world envy reaches its acute
form. vanity playing a great part IN
its production.

Sound travels by waves radiating

Just as waves radiate when stone is

only mention of national issues be-
ing an Endorsement of the election of

struction of boss rule is the supreme
issue. They charge the present repub-
lican administration with getting into
power two years ago. by gross corrup-
ton and manipulation of caucuses and
nominating conventions and demand a
primary election law under which all
nominations shall be made directly by
the people. Equal taxation and equitable
assessments and the repeal of what are
termed the ripper laws of the last
state legislature, which are said to be
a violation of the right of cities to have
home rule, form other planks of the
platform. The adoption of the system
known as the initiative and referendum
is demanded.
Another plank favors municipal own
ership of public utilities, subject to the
referendum.

During the Inst Fiscal Year.

Washington, July 31.-The commits
sioner of internal revenue has pre-
pared the annual preliminary report
of the operations of his bureau for
the fiscal year ended June 80, 1902.
The report shows that the receipts
from all sources of internal revenue
for the year aggregated $271, 900,
which includes $373,37s tax on money
orders turned over by the postmaster
general to the collector for the district

pense for collection was incurred, max
ing a decrease of $35,OO3, 679 from the
receipts for the fiscal year which end
ed June 80, 1901, and which decrease
resulted from the provisions of the
act of congress of date March 2, 1901,
resembling in part and repeating in
part the war revenue taxes imposed
under the act of congress of June Is,
1898.

MITCHELL ENJOINED.
Federal Judge Issues n Sweeping Or
der Against Strikers

Charleston, w. Va, Aug. 1. - John
Mitchell, president of the United
Mine Workers, Secretary Wilson and
about $50 of their official associates
have been enjoined from interfering
in any manner with the Chesapeake
q Ohio Coal Agency company, oper-
ating in the New River fields. A
lengthy bill was presented to Judge
Keller, of the federal court, by the
Chesapeake company Thursday. 1t
represented that the plaintiff is suf-
fering great loss through the opera
lions of the United Mine Workers, a
secret organization, of which John
Mitchell is the responsible head The
complaint charges that there was a
conspiracy among the mine workers
to prevent plaintiff filling his con-
tracts or pursuing his business.
The injunction is broad and com
prehensive. In brief, it forbids
Mitchell or any of his fellow members
from intimidating men who desire
to work, from parading, picketing,
assembling in the paths leading to
the mines or congregating about the
homes of peaceful employees, or, in
any other unlawful manner, attempt
ing to induce or force men who de-
sire to work from entering the
mines
