The Valne Of an Ideal
BY HON. WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN.

No one can measure the value of an ideal in dol
lars and cents. The ideal, if it be worthy, has its
inestmable value however to the individual and to
the nation through the individual and that value is
measured by its ethical influence, its power to elevate
and improve. Ambition is not an ideal, even though
the former may sometimes be confusedy identified as
such. Unworthy ambition may lead one to employ
money wrongfuly to attain the object of that ambi-
ton, but ideal cannot be purchased as you would
flour or potatoes. No true American would use
money to purchase an ideal And no ideal is so high

Lead, s. D., March 24.-The Burling-
ton is preparing for immediate work on
the construction of the electric trolley

yond Lead to Terry as soon as sat-
isfactory grades can be established in

age batteries Is to conserve the power

senate the senate was ready TO adjourn.
These senators had scarcely left the
chamber when the senate found Itself
again plunged into controversy. The
question this time was whether the de-
bate on the canal treaty, which had taken
place after the calling In OF the official
reporters, should be given to the public.
About an hour was spent on this subject.
Ultimately the controversy was COM
promised by a suggestion made by Sen
ator German that all the speeches should
be made public, but that none or them
hou be given out except those OF Sen
ators Morgan and Cullom, which have al
ready been published. until after the rati.
fication OF the treaty by both the United
States and Colombia should be pro-
claimed.
The committee then returned from the
White House, and Senator Allison an
nounced as the result Of their mission that
the president had stated that he had no
further communication TO make to the
senate. He t%hereupon moved the hnal ad-
journment Of the senate, and this motion
prevailed without division.

STRIKE WOULD HELP.
Soft Coal Men of Chicago Are Stuck
Unless Prices Go Up.

unless PRICES 40 Ops
Chicago, March 24.-With an advance
of rs cents a ton on soft coal today it
became known that desperate efforts
are being made by soft coal jobbers In
Chicago 10 save themselves from bank
ruptcy. Coal they bought last January
for "a and s. a ton is selling at 50 and
So. so, and there is little demand for 1t
even at that price.
The only thing that will stimulate
the market is a strike, SO let us have
a strike in the soft coal fields" is the
conclusion they nave arrived at at a
meeting in the Auditorium hotel.
The announcement that the soft coal
miners in the West Virginia and AL
toona districts are on the verge of a
strike followed. At the same time 1t
was made public hat the price of coal
would b. raised rs cents a ton in car
load lots.
w. II. Hanchey, secretary of the
Western Pennsylvania Fuel company,
who is IN Chicago said:
More han twenty big Chicago soft
coal jobbers are on the verge of bank
ruptcy owing to the stagnation of the
market. They are getting desperate.
Their one salvation lies in a strike in
the Altoona and West Virginia coal
fields, which, If it comes, would stimu-
ate the market and force to
begin putting in their supply of coal.
O course / do not know that a strike
is likely, but it is to the advantage of
the jobbers TO nave rs much talk about
It as possible. When Goa was sky high
during the winter the Chicago retail
ars were trying to get coal at any price.
AS a result eastern coal was bought at
So. so and $4 at the mines to which was
added 81 a ton freight rates to Chicago.
Today this coal is selling as low as So
which means a loss of about 81 a ton
to the dealer.
Every day coal is arriving in the city

Colombian States Show Opposition to
the Canal Treaty.

Colon, March 2l.-The ratification Of
the Hay-Herran Panama canal conven-
ton by the United States senate Tues
day has caused much tribulation
among the isthmian supporters of the
Panama route. There are, however,
many clear indications from the de-
partment of Bolivar and other points
in the Colombian republic that the rati-
fication of the convention will meet
with strong opposition in the Colom-
bian congress. A memorial adverse to
the treaty addressed to congress-, which
will meet towards the end of May, is
now being signed by influential men at
Carthagena.

PLEASES PALMA.
Cuban President Feels Gratified Over
Ratification of Treaty.

Havana, March .21.-President Palma
yesterday was shown by the represen-
tatives of the Associated Press a dis
patch giving the news Of the ratifica-
ton by the United States senate of the
Cuban reciprocity treaty. He expressed
qualification and added hat while the
news Of an earlier session of the house
would be welcome, the reported inten-
ton of President Roosevelt to call a
special session In the autumn would al
low the treaty the desired opportunity
for discussion and action.
The action of the senate renews the
hopes OF business men here that a sat
isfactory arrangement Of rates and
duties eventually will be reached. The
conclusion of a permanent treaty
awaits only the decision of the United
States government as to whether or not
it will claim sovereignty over the Isle
of Pines.

THE MASONIC SCANDAL.
Other Sports" Besides Draper Found
to Be Well Up in the Order.

New York, March 20~.-Astounding reve-
lations that nave followed the discovery
that Shang Draper had been made a Ma
son, have filled Grand Master Crandall
and his associates in the grand lodge with
dismay and Indignation. So high does the
feeling run because of the discovery that
Draper Is not the only person Of his class
who has gained admittance to lodges IN
Manhattan and Brooklyn that it would
not be astonishing If the charters of sew
eral lodges should be suspended before
the end of the week and many explosions
from the fraternity follow.
Draper, It has been ascertained, Is not
only a Master Mason but also a Royal
Arch Mason. AS early as last November
he was taken into Mt. Zion chapter, rep
resenting himself to be a respectable
broker. He went in with the first class
that took the degrees that month.
