Judge shiras' Resignation Accepted.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 5.-The
president has accepted the resignation
of oliver P. Shiras, judge of the federal
court of the Northern district of Iowa,
to take effect Nov. 1.
In accepting the resignation, Presi-
dent Roosevelt expressed himself in
the following complimentary letter:
TT is with great regret that 1 ac-
cept your resignation. 1 cannot allow
the occasion to pass without congrat-
ulating you upon the signal success
which has marked your labors on the
federal bench, and 1 trust that the
period of retirement upon which you
are about to enter and which you
have earned so well, will be as full OF
satisfaction to you as the period OF
your service was full of usefulness to
the nation"

the decisions of the courts, to the con-
trolling and regulating power of the
nation and of the several states. This
is not much of a record for trust
buster" but such as it is the president
has decided to be satisfied with it.
We think that he is wise. Just at
nresent the trusts are not menacing the
public so much as they are trying to
save their own bacon. The public has
lost confidence in them. Loss of con-
fidence means the cessation of stock
sales, and when stock ceases to sell the
interest of the power behind the trust
is gone. When the market flags
the attention of these people is turn
ed elsewhere. Then the inside
facts begin to come out, as they
have in the case of the ship building
trust, and securities fall to almost
nothing, as in the case Of the steel
trust. Economic laws will have their
way, and enterprises that have not
sound business foundation will totter
to their ruin.
President Roosevelt is learning some
thing about this, as well as about the
dangers of indiscriminate warfare
upon capital. The pity is that he did
not learn the lesson some time ago. He
has not helped to break the bubbles
that have burst, but he has helped to
impair public confidence, to injure le-
ultimate business and to inflict upon
the nations prosperity a blow so severe
that it may be long ere 1t shall recover.
The knowledge of his responsibility
and it's possible consequences have had
a SOLDERING effect upon him. He has
yet to learn their more serious relation
to his future political ambition.

Minnesota last Saturday. They be-
ueved that they would win, and thai
comparatively easily and by a decisive
score. They were utterly dumfounded
when their single score was tied, and
were Inundated and angered by the
general Judgment that they had been
Thoroughly outplayed. Some of them,
also, had received slight injuries, as
happens in every football game; and
the soreness of the moment, both phys
icaI and mental, found expression in
critical remarks that were extensively
taken up and repeated in grossly ex-
aggerated form to the press
It is to the credit of the Michigan
team that it has officially put a stop
to this sort of talk. 1t comes with bad
grace always from those who have fail
ed to win. If the game of football still
offers too many opportunities for what
must justly be called brutality, as we
rules, which should be further regulated
in the interest Of open play. Nobody will
ever believe that abuse Of team &C.
tually or substantially victorious in Il
contest is inspired by fair judgment
and disinterested motives. What has
been said thus far has reflected far
more discredit upon friends Of Michi-
gan than upon any one else, and we
congratulate them upon the final dis
missal of the episode on their own
motion.

BiiIets to Be Lower.

NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-At meeting
of leading steel and iron manufacturers
of the country in this city, arrange
ments have been practically concluded
for a reduction in the price of billets
amounting to 81 ton, making the
new price $23 ton. Following upon
the announcement that the United
States Steel corporation had made
very heavy sale Of steel in England,
the decision to lower the price of bill
lets in this country is particularly sig
nificant. In well informed quarters the
decision is looked upon as an effort
to stimulate business at home and
abroad, as we'll as to conform to pig
iron market conditions.

NEW YORK, Nov 5.-Thomas Walsh,
a lad of fourteen. employed in a rope
factory here, has met with a peculiarly
horrible accident. which undoubtedly will
cost his life. His body was perforated
by thousand steel needles in the ma
chinery. Walshs duty was to watch the
machine which separates the hemp into
strands and regulate the movement Of
the hemp. AS he bent over to pick up
his clothes and he was drawn into it
shrieking for aid. There were 1000 steel
needles moving up and down and his
body was frightfully torn when the ma

necessary to take it apart before he could
be released. So acute was the pain that

What the Editors Say

If Bob Dunn doesn't get the nominal
ton for governor it will not be the
fault of the country press. Fully two
thirds of our exchanges are saying kind
things about the Princeton man, and
everyone who knows him knows him to
be a man eminently fitted to look after
the interests of the public. Dunn is not
city fop and he is not tied up with
any machine, but he is the strongest
candidate yet mentioned just because
he is friend of the people and will
look after their interests.-Delano
Eagle.
The Blue Earth Post says that Van
SAINTS judgment is good, but If he
should come right out and boldly tell
whom he favors for governor the whole
state would differ with him, with the
possible exception of Winona and his
private secretary. That is to say Van
is still in favor of himself, the reported
statements attributed to him to the
contrary Notwithstanding Peter

TWO OPINIONS ABOUT NEW
YORK.

1t is highly entertaining-to Demo-
ocrat-to read Republican comments
on the result of the election in Greater
New York. The Pioneer Press, which
is not to be comforted, comes to the
following melancholy conclusion:
In short, the result in New York COM
pels the conclusion that 315, 900 of it's
voters are either incapable of intelligently
caring for their own interests or want
a government of graft and pollution Not
all are stupid and not all are unprincipled
but there are enough of each class to
believes in the intelligence and morality
OF the bulk of the people. 1t is such man
ifestations of stupidity and of low stand
ards of public morality that shake faith in
democracy. For If democracy is to mean
the ascendancy of the vicious and the
dishonest, If elements such as control
Iammany are to pursue such methods as
Tammany pursues. trampling on the weak
money. stopping at no device, however
vile, that will yield a dollar-if democ-
racy means such a government it is as
Hat failure as absolutism or oligarchy.
The Dispatch, on the other hand,
talks out in meeting to the following
effect:
That resulted in Greater New York
which was clearly to be foreseen in the
when the fusionists stultified themselves
by removing Comptroller Grout and
PRESIDENT Fornes from their ticket be-
cause they subsequently received the
Tammany nomination. Two years ago ago
these two men had been elected by the
combination against Tammany. They
had performed their duties in a manner
so excellent as to warrant their renomi-
nation by the element that elected them.
They were anti-Tammany Democrats
when elected, and nothing had been done
by them to indicate any relapse. They
thus. with Low for mayor, gave the ticket
its character of nonspartisanry. If Tam
many chose also to nominate them this
year it only made the campaign more
non partisan as to those offices at least,
and narrowed the issue down to Tammany
or anti-Tammany administration The
ousting of Grout and Fornes, backed by
the Platt element, changed the whole
character of the campaign and made it
partisan-a contest of Republicanism with
Democracy. The result was einevitable.
1t is to be observed that, though the
Dispatch sizes up the situation now
clearly and accurately, it did not print
and would not have dared to print any
such statement of fact prior to election,
even at this safe distance. It's utter.
ances then were oracular enough, and
no one would have gained from them a
hint of the facts. Our morning con-
temporary, it seems to us, must doubt
the sobriety of it's own conclusion that
over 100000 men Of voting age in
one great city Of the country are
either fools or scoundrels outright. In
any case, our readers ought to have the
benefit of the curious symposium of
local opinion that we have presented
to them.
