ROOseyelf's Popularity

President Roosevelt is making his
tour of New England, and is having 3
most enthusiastic reception from the
people, and his speeches esptivate the
crowds AS sample, we give the fol-
lowing from dispatch giving the SC
count of his reception at Lynn and
Nahant, Mass, Saturday:
upon arriving at Lynn, where car
riages were in waiting to take the par
ty to Nahant, the sight was one long to
be remembered.
Stretched from the station through
the city and across the peninsula 10
Nahant, distance of four miles, were
fully sixty thousand people, who cheered
again and again as the President passed.
There were two miles of carriages on
either side of the road.
1.-THE President rode with Senator
Lodge, and was escorted from Lynn to
Nahant by a troop of cavalry.
1.-THE arrival at Nahant was q signal
for another outbreak of applause, and
the two places seemed to vie with each
other rs to which should be the more
cordial in its greeting Flags and
bunting were displayed everywhere. :"

The Legislature Meets.

The Ohio Legislature met yesterday
on the call of Gov. Nash, in extra ses-
sion, TO provide q code for the organ
ization and government of cities and
villages This legislation was made
necessary by the decision of the Su-
preme Court, which declared unconsti-
tutional the charters and laws for the
government of many of these cities
Gov. Nash has had code prepared by
able attorneys, after much consultation,
and this will be the basis of work for
the Legislature. BY reason of this, it
ia thought the session will be short
one. But when the Legislature gets to
work it may be found that the job is
not an easy one, and month may be
consumed. The members of the Leg
islature win get no per diem for this
session.

Announces That He Has
Abandoned all Efforts
to End Coal

Possible. p. Morgan
Refused to Act.
OPERATORS TOO STUBBORN.

Special Dispatch to the Leader.
Buffalo. n. Y, August Ex-senator
Hanna for the first time announced to-
day that all efforts tn end the Pennsyl-
vania coal strike had been abandoned.
He announced il with undoubsed regret.
He also said that the fight would be a
long and desperate one between opera
tor and miner.
Senator Hanna arrived here from Nj
agara Falls late this afternoon. He was
accompanied by his daughter. Miss
Ruth, and her friend, Miss Phelps, OF
Cleveland. Tonight the party started
for Cleveland. The Senator talked
freely about the coal strike before
leaving.
81 have exhausted my efforts" he
said. 81 have. done all in my power,
and can do no more. / win make no
further attempt, for il would be use-
less"
Miners VIII Fight.
"Cxn there be no arbitration" he
was ssked.
"How can there be when only one side
is willing to arbitrate? The miners are
willing. The operators are not"
'-Will the miners give in?',
Mot so long rs they can fight" said
the Senator. They viii stand out as
long as they are able. It will not be a
short fight 1t will be prolonged, and
such q prolongation win mean not only
hardships for the miners and the wo-
men and children dependent upon them,
but it will have its effects on the Amer.
lean people. The longer this struggle
continues the greater will be the rise
in prices of coal.
SIS the refusal of the miners to arbi.
trate final?''
l so regard it," said the Senator.
''They have refused, and they still re-
| fuse"
Have you no hope that j. Pierponi
Morgan will intervene to settle the
strike or persuade the operators to ar
bitrate?',
Morgan's Attitude Unchanged.
Senator Hanna shook his head. SAL
know is what I see by the papers, be
said. 81 talked with Mr.. Morgan be
fore l went to Europe, and before the
strike was under way. He deplored
the situation, but would take no active
part toward settlement. His attitude
in my opinion, is unchanged"
"When win the crisis come in the
striker"
81 cannot say" replied Senator Han
na- ''I have exhausted my efforts"
"Did Secretary Easily, of the Nationa
Civic Federation, see you at Niagars
Falls?n

1t was evident in every sentence o
Senator Hanna's talk that his sympa

given up hope of n peaceful settlements
and views with great regret the pro
longation Of the struggle.
The Senator. when asked abou
Presinent Roosevelt's present trip, said

RUSSELL. SAGE says very emphati-
cally that Pierrepont Morgan could
settle the coal strike. This is a Sage
remark But wouldn't it be humili-
ating to admit that any one man in the
nation has power above and beyond the
President and the government in such
emergencies? Could anything show
more plainly the necessity for legisls-
tion that will protect the rights of the
people? The people first, in all things;
the power of the people above all
things, in its potency, and legislation
that will PREVENT trusts that are in
imical to public welfare.

THE Cleveland Leader says that men
should eat more fruit while meat Is so
high, and argues that monkeys live on
fruits. and that there are no animals
more powerful or agile, and that they
are natural gymnasts- The other side
of this argument might be that IL you
wanted to be monkey you should eat
monkey food; this would be especially
convincing to those who think they are
descended from monkeys
