phatic opinion. The statement said in part;

Mr.. Bruce was asked about the report that the
liquor dealers as a unit opposed to the fusion
ticket.
The effort of Tammany to array the liquor
dealers against the fusion ticket has failed, he
replied. We have abundant evidence that thou

to return of Tammany's rule, with its regime
of graft The liquor dealers find even an in
creased license and an enforcement of the Sun

MR.. MoReAN's VISIT.

Mr.. John p. Morgan came to Wash.
lngton few DAYS ago and visited the
president. 1t is currently reported
That be went there to lay down the
law to him, that he told him exactly
what he should do. and what be should
not do. and to this admonition be
added threat. He is reported to have
said in very plain terms that the bus
mess interests of the country would
stand but little more from MIR. Roose-
welt, that already the conditions were
not satisfactory. and might grow
worse, SO that interference on the part
OF the president with them by threat
or active movement toward trust leg
lslatlon would not be tolerated, and
If the president insisted on preserving
the course be has been pursuing be
might look for breakers in bis political
course. This is very humiliating if
true. Bnt the Republican idea is fixed
on one star only and that is money
making. The country, the great mass
OF the people are held to be the legiti
mate subjects of plumber by the Nor
gan interests, and any interference
with their game of loot is dangerous if
not fatal to any office holder or office
seeker from the president down. Now
the question is asked will Mr.. Roose-
welt yield, will he knuckle to the de
mands of this money king and emperor
OF Wall Street He surely will, he
will come down as complacently and
as surely as Davy Crookett's coon
from the tree. When Mr.. Roosevelt |
began bis official duties he really |
thought himself feared by the trusts, |
but that conceit has long been taken
out of him, and he Will be as truculent
and subservient to Mr.. Morgan and
The interests he represents as any who
has gone before, if not really more
80, because he is the first president of
'he United States to make show of
light. and he has already been whip
ped into obedience, which makes his
surrender more ignominions than any
If his predecessors.

NOT WISDOM, BUT COMMERCE.

1t is rather amusing in the face of
Its Stiffness to hear gold bugs gloat over
the low price of silver. This, they
see III to think fully vindicates their
wisdom in voting to demonetize it..
The absurdity of the proposition that
silver or any other metal could hold
the same relative value to gold when one
is the pet of the nation and the other
metal is legislated against, is beyond
description. If silver were the only
metal used as coin by the government
1t would advance beyond the ratio of
ID to to gold Immediately. Plati-
mum is more prec iOus and valuable
metal than gold. Radium is a new
metal said to have been recently dis.

Some years ago walnut was worth

1t was then the fashion. Now it is not
worth near so much. Oak has largely

worth more today than walnut, be-
cause it is the fashion. The two woods

The Canal Treaty,

Without making single change the
Senate Tuesday voted to ratifv the
treaty with the Republic of Columbia
for the construction of an istbmian
canal. The vote for ratification was
70 in the aff1rmate to five in the mega.
tive. The Senate was in executive
session when the result Was announc
ed'so that the Senators themselves and
few confidential employers were pre-
sent. The five Senators voting in the
negative were, Morgan and Pettus Of
Alabama; Teller, of Colorado: and
Daniel and Martin of Virginia. All
the Senators announced themselves as
gratified to have the long struggle
terminated, but none of them mani.
tested their appreciation by cheers or
handclapping.
