Occasionally we hear some one make
mention of the fact that Mr.. Getthere
is rising young man and "near the
political throne" In time he goes to
the legislature and is the envied of the
envious. We all imagine that we, too,
would like to be ''near the throne. y
But let us look at the other side. No
sooner does Mr.. Getthere land on the
front seat than his friends are legion.
They come from the office, the store.
the shop and the schoolroom; the corn
field sends its quota, and even the
digger in the street has his eye on the
bright and shining STAR" And thew
all want something, and are insistent
IN their demands. Some want office
and others seek to control his patron
age; one wants a contract, another
wants a job for his son; Jones wants a
free pass to somewhere, and Smith

Ladies, beware of the high-heeled
shoes, as death and disease are stalk
ing in their wake. Physicians of re-
nown are emphatic in condemning the
stilted-heel shoes decreed by the society
leaders, and unhesitatingly declare
that they are a menace to the health of
both the mother and her offspring. We
often comment on the barbarous habit
of binding the foot practiceo in China,
but the heather is little worse in this
respect than some of our latter day
leaders of fashion.

Associate Justice David +

Associate Justice David J. Brewer,
OF the United States Supreme Court, in
discussing the prevailing tendency to
lynchings in this country, takes the
position that the remedy must lie in an
assurance that the criminal negro who
abuses a white woman will be speedily
prosecuted and punished nd that higher
courts must be debarred the privilege
of reversing the verdict in such cases.
And the justice is correct in his dag
nosis OF the case. No human being
with spark of manhood can witness
an assault by brutal negro upon a
white woman without having his angry
passions aroused, but the people would
not be SO ready to take the law in their
own hands if they could have anv as
surance that the law would not be dis
torted and outraged to such an extent
that the brute would eventually escape
just punishment for his crime, AS
a matter of fact, the attorney who Jug
giles with the law in the effort to free
such brute is but little removed from
the level Of his disreputable client.

The Columbia senate has rejected the
Panama canal treaty by unanimous
vote and will take steps to reopen ne
got; ations with the United States. The
senate rejected the treaty on the
ground that it's provisions are in open
violation Of the constitution, which
makes no provision for the cession of
territory or sovereignty. 1t is to our
interest that the canal be constructed,
but if the Colombians are not open to
reason President Roosevelt has the
authority to authorize the digging of a
canal through Nicaragua.

Perhaps no young man in recent
years has achieved the universal popu-
larity and newspaper notoriety accord
ed Joseph w. Folk. the vigorous pros
ecuting attorney in St. Louis. When
Folk made it warm for the boodlers he
incurred the bitter hatred of them and
their ink. but by his praiseworthy
course he jumped from an obscure law
yer to man of national prominence,
with the doors of the states executive
office open to him if he chooses to enter.
His rise has been metoric; but unlike
the meteor, he has declined to fall.

President Roosevelt has delivered
himself of some more advice to the
youth of our country, and in some re-

Here are a few of his suggestions:
1T is not what comes into a mans
mouth, but wat goes out of it that
counts"
'You cannot retain your self respect
II you are loose and foul of tongue"

depends upon the way in which we
can combine decency and strength in
our young men,
There is no good in your preaching
to your boys to be brave if you run

The uprising in the Balkans has
brought prominently before the public
again the chronic condition in the
Turkish provinces. Affairs appear tc
have reached the acute stage in which
murder, pillage and all kinds of hor-
rors have become the rule rather than
the exception. The Macedonians are
in revolt against the Turks until the
latter make reforms--a condition about
as far remote as the antipodes. The
miniOns of the Sultan are numbering
the Christian population, and the in
surgents are retaliating against the
Turks. Altogether it is an impossible
condition, one which will in time de-
populate the provinces if better con-
dition is not inaugurated.

The promoters of the St. Louis ex-
position are laboring with an exasper-
ating proposition. and one which
threatens to interfere to a considerable
extent with the attendance at the fair
next year. The city has for long
time been in the grasp of horde of
railroad ticket scalpers, and the legis-
lature failed to give any relief in this
line during the last session. and now
the railroads absolutely refuse to make
any better rates to the fair than the
usual excursion prices, if the scalpers
are permitted to continue during the
fair. The country at large is sufficient
~ interested in the success of the ex-
position to demand that some arrange
ment be made whereby the lowest pos
sihle rates will be granted by the
roads.

The Grand Army of the Republic
will bring all of its great influence to
bear to prevent the confirmation of the
appointment of Leonard Wood to be a
major general in the army, over the
heads of more than four hundred off
GERS of rank who served gallantly in
the two recent wars of this country,
and who are known to be well uualiti
ed for the honors denied them in favor
of Wood. General Wood has already
been abundantlv rewarded for the
good work he has performed in Cuba,
while other officers have gone unre-
warded to this day, except such pro-
motion as comes in the regular order
OF things. The President will make a
serious mistake if he seeks to thrust
Wood down the throats of the people,
for the people are masters of the situa-
ton, and can make or unmalle presi-
dents.

A federal judge in St. Louis has
rendered decision in which he holds
that the Western Union Telegraph
company has legal right to discharge
employers for belonging to unions, or
to discharge them for no reason at all,
ii no contract exists, and that the COM
pany is within the law when it places
the names of discharged employers on
the blacklist and furnishes the list to
others for their information. The de-
cision will be heavy blow to organ
lied labor, which has always contend
ed that corporation had no such right
to discharge an employee unless he had
been guilty of some special infraction
of the rules of the company.
