OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.


WASHINGTON, ID. e., March 3rd.
MIR. EDIToR:-By its staunch adherence
to the constitution and it's logical exposi
ton of the law, as voiced by Senator
Bailey, of Texas, the democratic minority
in the Senate scored Il signal victory last
week and forced President pro tenn Frye
to recede from the autocratic position
which he had assumed. Following the
personal encounter between Senators Till
man and McLaurin which had occurred
last Saturday, and to which only the I'M
justiiable action of Senator Frye leads
me to refer, the President pro TEN caused
to be erased from the rolls of the Senate
the names of the two Senators from South
Carolina. For the reason named, when
the Philippine bill was passed on Monday
afternoon, neither Senator was given an
opportunity to vote. Senator Bailey, how
ever, so ably presented the unconstitu-
tionality of the action of the Chair that
their names were restored on the follow
ing day and the republicans caused an i'm
mediate adjournment of Tuesdays and
w ednesday's sessions because they feared
to act in the matter until the Committee
on Privileges and Elections had reported.
Thursday the Senate met in joint session
with the House to participate in the
memorial services held for President Nc
kinley and on Friday the above commit
tee reported, censuring both Senators for
having violated the dignity of the Senate
and removing from them the stigma of
contempt which had been placed upon
them by the whole Senate in executive
session.
There is further report due from the
above named committee. 1t has been in
structed to investigate the charges of Sem
ator Tillman that Mr.. McLaurin was
bribed with the promise of the federal
patronage of the State to vote for the rati
fication of the treaty of Paris. AS is well
known, the junior Senator from South
Carolina had made speech in the Senate
denouncing the treaty, and later, after
call at the White House, he voted for its
ratification He has since been adopted
by the republican caucus and has dictated

DEALING IN FUTURES.

The United States Supreme Court Mon
| day affirmed the decree of the Supreme
Court of the State Of Illinois involving
| validity of the State stat lite imposing fire
| of from $40 to 1000 for dealing III fu
| lures. The decision of the State court up
held the law, and Mondays opinion sus
tanned that decision. The opinion was
handed down by Justice Harlan and was
] dissented from by Justices Brewer and
Peckham.
The Illinois law involved in section $50
| of the criminal code of the State. and it
provides that whoever contracts tn have
or give to himself or another the option
to sell or buy at a future time any grain
or other commodity, or torestalls the mar
ket by spreading false rumors to influence
the price of commodities, or corners the
market, shall be fined not less than $40
| nor more than $1,000, or confined in the
county Jail not exceeding one year, or
9th.
| In delivering the opinion of the court
\ Justice Harlan said that Booth had been
indicted ION the charge of violating the
statute so far as it related to options to
buy grain or other commodities at flu
ture time" He was found guilty and adj
judged to pay a fine 800.
| In the course of his opinion Justice Har
land said: I'VE cannot say from any facts
| judiciallv known to the court or from the
|
of options to sell grain at a future time
has in itself no possible relation to the
suppression of gambling in grain con-
tracts in respect of which the parties con-
differences in the contract and make the
prices.
"Perhaps the Legislature thought that
dealings in options to sell or buy at a flu
ture time, although not always or nee
essarily gambling, may have the effect to
keep out of the market while the options
last the property which is the subject of
the options and thus assist purchasers to
establish for a time what are known as
corners, whereby the ordinary and regu-
lar sales or exchanges of such property
based upon existing prices may be inter
| fered with and persons who have in fact
no grain and do not care to handle any
are enabled to practically control prices
"Or the legislature may have thought
that options to sell or buy at a future
time were in their essence mere specula-
| tions in prices and tended to foster
spirit of gambling. In all this the legis-
| lature may have been mistaken. If so,
| the mistake was not such as to Justify the
| conclusion that the statute was a mere
cover to destroy particular kind of bust
ness not inherently harmful or immoral
1T must be assumed that the legislature
was of the opinion that an effectual mode
to suppress gambling in grain contracts
| was to declare illegal all options to sell
or buy at future time. The court is un-
| able to say that the means employed were
not appropriate to the end sought to be
| attained and which it was competent for
| the State to accomplish. We cannot ad-
judge that the legislature of Illinois tran
| scended the limits of constitutional au-
thority when enacting the statute in ques-
| ton
The opinion of the Supreme Court of
| the State of Illinois was affirmed.

The memorial exercises of the late
President held on Thursday were elabo-
rate and impressive. The half masted
flags, the playing of the President favor
lite hymns by the Marine Band and the
eulogy of Secretary Hay, which was re-
markable for the elegance of its diction
and the beauty of its metaphors, all COM
bined to produce an atmosphere of sombre-
ness that took one back to the last sad
rites which occurred in the Capitol in
September Prince Henry of Prussia vas
present and preserved throughout rigid
ity of military deCorum remarkable from
an American standpoint. Although
watched him closely, | can safely say that
he never moved an inch during the entire
hour and a half which was required for
Mr. Hay to deliver his address.

THE POPE CELEBRATES HIS
Birthday.

Monday was the CPD anniversary of the
birth of Pope Leo XIII, and simultane-
ously he begins the 25th year of his ponti-
ficate.
He was born March 2, 1910, and was
crowned March 3, 1878, 10 days after his
selection by the sacred college to head the
great Roman Catholic church of the
world.
On account of the age of the Pope the
celebration of his birthday is not as ella
borate as formerly, but the exercises in
which he participates are no less i'm
pressive and dignifed.
The chief feature of the celebration was
a cercm onial mass at St. Peters. Many
sat at the doors of the great editce all
night that they migh be certain to get
good seats in the morning. Illumination
in honor of the event blazed in every part
of Rome. The palaces of the great pro-
Vatican mobiles were particularly brilliant.
After the mass the members of the col
lege of cardinals congratulated the Holy
Father 1t is possible that he may hold IA
levee for the vast throng of pilgrims that
have made of Rome one vast hotel.
Many American pilgrims are in Rome
Most of these are in bands, headed by
bishops and priests. Even from far Aus
tralia have come hundreds to witness the
epochal ceremonies. 1t is the Popes wish
hot fnr bo NJ, s l.; I, l.,
be said, and millions of hearts poured
these forth in unison Monday.
Three interesting topics are being dis
cussed in connection with the annivcr-
sition of Pope Leo's fortune, the posi-
bility of an embassy from the United
States to the Vatican and the papal sue
cession. 1t is understood that the en-
$G0,000,0 900, has been bequeathed to the
Holy See Pope Leo's vast fortune, most
of which was inherited, Las already been
partitioned among relatives and dispens-
ed in charity. There remain olny keep
sakes to be distributed after death as gifts
of remembrance.
1t has been one of Leo's fondest hopes
that the United States would be represen-
ted at the Vatican. He would be even
satisfied temporarily with semi official
representative.
Speculation as to the Pore'> probable
sue cessor is always lre,cnt in Rome
Just now Cardinal Gotti is regarded as
the most likely member of the sacred col
lege. He is project of the congregation
of bishops, and is SO year old.
DR.. Lapponi, physician to the Pope,
says Leo is in excellent phi, cal condi-
ton considering his great age. He has
tasted during Lent, Notwithstanding DR..
Lapponi's warnings that he does so at
great risk to his health.

MALARIA.

The people who live in low, swampy countries seem to take it for granted that Malaria, Fevers and Ague are necessary evils. They apparently do not realize that these diseases aIe slowly but surely sapping their general vitality. These in termittent ftvers, malaria. fever and ague swamp fever, jungle fever. etc., are the most persistent enemies of the human race If the aggregate of harm they do could be realized, they would be fought as plaques.
 These diseases are the result of weak ness, of poisoned, microbial blood, and it was long ago demonstrated that Dr. liar ter's Iron Tonic was an absolute specific; 8 sure cure. It has been conquering and preventing these diseases for nearly half a century. 1t purifies the blood and drives out the poisons.
 It has been thoroughly demonstrated that the insects which infest new coun- tries and low swampy localities are ve- hicles for carrying disease germs. If your blood is pure and healthy you need have little fear of these. But if your blood is bad 1t is not in condition to re- sist the poisonous stings, and as result the germs of disease obtain a footing.
 Protect yourself by using Dr. Harter' s Iron Tonic. It will not only drive out but keep out malaria and other levers of like kind. It has done it in so many thousands of cases that you cannot doubt Made only by The Dr. Harter Medicine Co.,, Dayton. Ohio. Sold everywhere.

The Advance Guard of 1909.

Chicago Chronicle.
 No fact of the new century is more OBVIOUS than that men and women are younger than they used to be after cross ing the equator of age. So universal is Increased longevity with intellectual and physical power in activity that the most conspicuous figures in the world today, the advance guard of 1902. present an un- precedented array of human interest, picturesque, dramatic, multifarious.
 In the world of letters the advance guard consists of Tolstoi and Ibsen, each nearly 75, and although both have been reported i'll both continue to live and Tolstoi to work all the time. Ibsen part of the time. After them are Mark Twain, e; Stedman, 6s; Swinburne. 65; Howells, paramount and the paramount figure of the British empire is Salisbury, 72
 Monarchs are represented in this ad- vance guard by Christian TX of Dem mark S4. and Francis Joseph of Aus tria, who, at 72, complacently faces the most batfiing dlScord of races, creeds aad purposes ever concentrated ill a single reign.
 Americans, it is said, live faster than any other people. They should there the Senate at 7e. Chief Justice Fuller is in mellow prime at 69, Grover Cleveland re-enters public life at 65. Our frolie- some representative at the Court of St.
 
 CT Is Ambassador White at Berlin. Am bassador Porter at Paris, ever young, $ 65. Among men of affairs Chauncey De- pew has taken day off to get married at 6S and so deliberately that he was content with no fewer than three cere- monies. Bishop Potter is militant at G. The captains of industry, as Carlyle call ed trade leaders, are represented in the advance guard by Andrew Carnegie ca pering over continents and islands at 65
 In the advance guard are the three busiest women of two centuries, Eliza beth Cady Stanton, &; Julia Ward Howe S3: and Susan B. Anthony, S2.
 Far in advance of the advance guard is 8 serene but ethereal figure. At g. Leo Kill says midnight service for Christmas and announces resumption of diplomatic receptions after New Years.
 Education is not without delegates in the advance guard of 1902, Angell at a continues to direct the University of Michigan and President Eliot at 6S is blithe und 1T the elms Of Cambridge.
 Contemplation of the advance guard of 1902 shows that nature, always in rhythm. never rhymes. No two of this extraordinary array are alike in essen- tial particulars All prove that 1t is the nature The most successful of the guard are they who have habitually toiled along the line of greatest resistance. All have had the sagacity to place as far away as possible from the struggle of the instant the imaginary line uniting the heavens and earth. Therein lies, douOr- less. the secret of their longevity. TheN never exaggerated the present. In tho far-away future, for whose opportuni- ties they knew how to wait, they al- ways discerned the rose dawn on thu pelectable Mountains.

The Charlottesville (va.) Progress which was but lately one of the out whoopingest free silver papers in all the South. has seen the light and is honest enough to congess it. and to urge a return to the old principles of Democracy. It thinks it is high time that the party should cut loose from Populists. free sil- yer Republicans and all others who are not fully in accord with true Democracy and strike out for itself along the only lines which hold out any hope or promise of success.
 The Memphis Commercial Appeal is another strong paper which went as far as any in support of Mir. Bryan and free coinage, and 1t. too. finds that the party has been travelling the broad road which leads to political ruin. Speaking of David B. Hill as a Presidential candi- date that paper says:
 Hin will not be acceptable to the Popu- listic barnacles that have fastened them- selves upon the Democratic Party in late years; but he will be acceptable to the countay at large, to the great commer- cial and agricultural interests because he Is known to be capable. and safe, con- servative man.
 Mir. Hill has never been in sympathy with 'the Popuiistic barnacles" as The Appeal calls them, who, did so much to drag the party down. True. he did not think it good policy to put himself in. open opposition, preferring to travel nominally with the party until such time as he and other conservative statesmen should be able to guide it back into the old way and lead 1t to victory. He is man of real talent and statesmanship. and would probably do as much to purify and redeem the Democratic Party as any man living. And, speaking of the houn- derings and wanderings which the Party has gone through of late years, The Richmond Times winds up with these hopeful words:
 It is a sad story. But we believe that the great Body of Democrats in this country have profited by their late expe- riences. and that when the representa- lives of the party meet next time in con- vention they will correct those mistakes and return to the old-time principles of the party. With this done, and with genuine Democrats in the lead it will not take the party long to regain the confidence of the public. The career of the Democratic Party is not ended, be- cause it's mission is not ended; there Is a great work for it to do. and we believe that it will do 1t. One of the best signs that we have seen in Virginia is that the Charlottesville Progress has had the frankness and the courage 70 confess the errors that have been made and to de- mand that they be corrected.
