Love Story

TORNWALLIS COBB-COrn Cobb,
as he was Familiarity called by his
assOciates-was Individually a more

Katherine never knew why he
should be so burdened, except that
CORVALLIS was an old family name,
''as though that were any reason"
she once remarked Indignantly, "tO
mark a man through life"
She remembered wildly when she
had considered it the most ridiculous
name in the world, but somehow to-

Before that chance meeting it had
been four years since she had seen
where, after leaving Princeton, he
had laid his heart and worldly goods
at her feet.
In the interval the Cobb exchequer
had been materially increased
through the death of a near relative.
CORVALLIS, tall and ungainIy in those
days, smarting under Katherine's IN
gracious refusal, shook the dust Of
his native town from his feet and
sailed to Germany to study.
For the first time, in looking back
over this episode, Katherine realized
how disdainfuI had been her refusal
When pressed for a reason, she had
replied with unbIushing candor that
she never could care for a man whose

LEAGUE OF MUNICIPALITIES.
Filth Annual Convention Helt

at Grand Rapids, Mich.
Grand Rapids. Mich, Aug. 27.-rws
hundred delegates were present at the
opening session today of the hfth
annual convention Of the American
League Of Municipalities in the furnt
ture exposition building. An address
of welcome by Mayor Palmer, of Garnd
Rapids, opened the morning session
This was followed by AN address By
President Charles S. Ashley, mayor
of New Bedford, Mass.
Mr.. Ashley said that most Of the dis
cussion had been given to the subjecS
Of municipal administration by the
members Of the league and1hey had
been the cause Of provoking concen
trated attention to the question of mu
nicipal ownership.
Continuing on this topic. he said
Home rule for cities. No depen
dency of the city upon the state Each
municipality should be law unto it.
self upon purely local grounds. We
should have a right to own and con
troll the public utilities
Competition in the products Of the
public service corporations, too often
means that consolidation will follow
and the consumer eventually pays ali
the bills.
Pure monopoly means that the prioe
demanded will be for beyond the fair
capacity Of the debtor to pay.
Regulated monopoly through the
instrumentality Of the state is farce
and practically amounts to legaliEed
bunco. It is true that an individual
or a firm Is entitled to only what ia
fair as return on business invest
ment, it is equally true that great cor.
p0rations which exist by the license
of the state and are the creatures en-
tirely of the law, have no inherent
right to receive more than what Is
right and just.
Great public utility monopolies ara
fertile in resources and learned in
triokery. The state IN its wisdom
created It's boa ~ds and bureaus to re-
strict, regulate and control.
81 do not urge municipal ownership
as a club to exterminate, but rather
as a means to a remedy ana q solu
ton. I charge no corruption upon
the agents Of the state; the fault la
in the systems; they are not by the
tenor of their appointment subject g
to any control Of the cityi they come
in daily contact with the companies
and their representatives and they
learn to think as their visitors think
they lose their identity as citizens
themselves, and have come to regard
the peoples voice as too brazen and
out of tune"

DEAR SIR:-Some years ago l operated float

operations was being constantly changed, and my
hands were always exposed to the worst malarial
influences | employed over one hundred hands,
and the work was conducted as much in water as
out of it. For this reason, in August and Septem-

account of sickness among the workers.
My attention was then called to Johnsons Chill
and Fever Tonic, and l determined to give the
medicine a trial. | procured 1t, and those who
were sick put on this treatment, and those who
were feeling badly were at once given the Tonic.
In a short time every one ofthe one hundred hands
was we'll and reported for duty; and from that time
on I used nothing else but Johnson's Tonic, and
never had another case of fever

AFTER PACIFIC ISLANDS.
Uncle Sam Sends Warship to Gust
Japs from Wake Island.

JapS from wake iSIand,
Toxic, Aug. IS, via Victoria, B. c.
Aug. 27.-The United States seems to
be looking after the Pacific islands
First it was Marcus island, but news
came that the Washington authorities
recognized Japan's claim thereto. The
incident caused a little iutter at first
and a Japanese warship was dispatch
ed with an official on board to await
the arrival of Captain RosehiIl, the
American alleged concessionaire.
The warship landed its official charg.
ed with documents, one being from
United States Minister Buck, but SO
far no word has been received Of
Captain Rosehill's arrival.
The telegraphed solution of the mat.
ter has been hailed with pleasure by
the japanese press, which exalted the
magnanimity of America and points
out how consistently she has shown
herself to be the friend of Japan. Just
on the tip of that favorable impression,
however, there arrives telegraphio
word that the United States has sent
a warship to GUST the Japanese from
Wake island, south of Marcus island.
The Japanese papers claim the island
was uninhabited until some of their
bird-catchers visited it and profess
to fail to understand of what benefit
the island would be to any nation. So
far the nature Of Americas claim to
the island and the purposes of its
present enforcement, if the rumor is
correct, is unknown here.
