Only two or three years ago some
of the yellow journals were cartoon
ing Senator Hanna as a giant foe of
labor. Often he was pictured with a
bull-whip in his hand with one foot
resting upon a grinning skull labeled
Labor What different view of
him we get to-day! On this date he
is scheduled to speak before a conven-
ton of labor men at Columbus, o.,
upon which occasion it is said he will
defend organized labor against the at

Hanna has promised not only TO reply

DIR. Patton was delivering lecture
recently in his course on ethics at the
Princeton Theological Seminary and
experienced much annoyance because
some of the students ate peanuts in
stead of attending to him. Finally he
administered this rebuke: Gentlemen,
have delayed starting the most i'm
portant part of tc-day's lecture hop
ing that the stock of peanuts would
be consumed and a restful quiet be
restored. AS the quantity seems am
pie to meet the demands and the sup
ply appears inexhaustible, I feel con-
strained to request that your appetites
be restrained until the conclusion of
the lecture. 1 WOULD be greatly pleased

The new antitrust law of Texas
classes combinations of farmers and
laborers as illegal combinations along
with those of capital. In view of this
law some of the large corporations of
the state are now declining to enter
fearing that they will be held to be
violating the law, which prohibits
agreements fixing the prices of any
commodity, the restriction of trade,
etc. Texas seems to be finding much
difficulty in arranging law that will
hit the bad trusts and leave the
good ones unhurt.

The Right Rev. John Sheepshanks,
Bishop of Norwich, England, is a man
of note quite apart from his name
and his clerical office. He is the faith
err of seventeen children-ten sons
and seven daughters-ranging at
present in ages from seven years to
thiry-two. The Bishop told a meeting
of women a few days ago that if a
certain king was fit to be a king be-
cause he had blacked his own boots,
he was more fit to be a bishop, be-
cause he had not only cobbled his
own shoes but had mended his own
breeches. Furthermore he was an ex-
pert cook, and if any of the young
women present desired to be taught
how to make flagjacks or cook bacon
he would be pleased to give them les
sons. The good Bishop probably ac-
CURED his proficiency in the domes-
tic arts while Mrs. Sheepshanks was
engaged in the nursery.

1t would seem that the limit of lux
ury in travel had about been reached
in the new German flyer, Kaiser Will
helm II. Among her various suites
are two imperial cabins" That is
merely a name to distinguish them,
however. One does not have to be
born to the purple to occupy them.
Even plebeian may luxuriate in one
of them if he has the price-$2.OO for
the trip. Each of these cabins has
parlor, dining room, bedroom and
bath, all gorgeously furnished and
equipped with everything that ingen-
uity has suggested ought to be pro-
vided for the comfort or pleasure or
to tickle the vanity of the occupants.
There are other very fine suites, which
cost $1,000 for the trip, but the i'm
perial cabins" are just a step in ad-
vance of anything heretofore under
taken on the floating palaces that ply
between Europe and America.

WHY NOT TURN BACK THE STOCK .

Some of the papers in discussing the
effort the Northen Securities Com
pany is making to have the decision
against it so modified as to permit it
to pay dividends to it's stockholders
ask why doesn't the company turn
back the stock to the merged COM
panies?
The reason probably is that if it We're
to turn back the stock it would cease
to have any existence, and hence would
not be able to appeal from the decision
to the Supreme Court. AS we under
stand it, the stockholders in the Great
Northern and the Northern Pacific
Railroads put their stock in the North
ern Securities Company. There will
be no difficulty in their getting it back
again if the Supreme Court should ar
firm the decision that has been rem
dered against that company. AS far
as can be seen, the stockholders will
lose nothing.
An effort is being made to show that
it was never the intention that the
Sherman antitrust law should apply
to railroads. 1t is asserted that Sena-
tors Hoar and Edmunds who drew
the act. stated on several occasions in
the Senate that the law was not in
tended to apply to railroads. 1t is
hardly probable that the Supreme
Court will accept that view of the
law. That court will, in all probable
ity, like the United States Circuit
the law itself. 1t will not hunt for
it in speeches made in the Senate.
1t is doubtful if the stockholders of
the enjoined company will get any
dividends until the decision of the Su-
preme Court has been rendered on the
appeal, that is, provided an appeal is
taken. If the stock were turned back
to the merged companies they could, of
course, get their dividends Immediately.

Alexander, Feb. 13.-The late decision
affirming the constitutionality of the
so-called inebriate law, is welcomed
alike by majority of our citizens. So
many communities have found this law
just what they need as a weapon of Of
Tense and defense that this, or a law of
similar tenor and effect is bound to re-
main on our state books. In this con-
nection many would like an explanation
of a recent statement in the Des MoineS

law was now being used as factor in
obtaining divorces the inference being
the suit under the inebriate law is
only put UP job to secure conviction.
and the divorce being granted because

witnesses who will perjure themselves.

FIRST STEPS SUCCESSFUL.

Agreements with all the European
powers interested in Venezuela claims
have been reached and the protocols are

ships. Following the signing of these
protocols, new set fixing the details
Of the reference to The Hague of the
preferential treatment question will be

ever matters of detail simply, and it is
not expected that they will occasion

INCREASED RAILWAY EARNINGS.

Reference was made on this page
Railroad Commissioner Frank T.
Campbell against an increase in
freight rates on the ground that the
railroads were doing fiourishing bust
ness and did not need such advance.
Now comes the preliminary report OF
the income and expenditures of the
railways of the United States for the
year ending June 80, 1902, just issued
by the interstate commerce commits
sion, tending to confirm Mr.. Campbell S
statements.
First of all it is gratifying to learn
from an actual showing OF figures that
the railroads are enjoying a prosperous
era and getting a full share of bust
ness. No one inclined to be fair will
begrudge them this good fortune. 1t is
only when, amidst such surroundings, a
proposal to increase rates meets with
protests from such students of trans
portation as Mr.. Campbell.
The mileage represented in the re-
port just referred to, which is COM
piled from the returns of 663 operating
roads. is 195,3s5.53 miles. or IS per cent
of the total.
Briefly stated, the gross earnings for
1902 exceeded those of the previous
year by s125,o0o,00O. The average of
gross earnings was s63S per mile great
er than for the previous year. The
average Of the operating expenses for
the last year shows an increase of 1892
per mile as compared with the previous
year. The ratio of operating expenses
to earnings, 64.62 per cent, is tritie
smaller than it was in 1901. In other
words, the railroads earned more at less
expense per mile than during the pre-
yious year. The dividends declared
during the year amounted to $1506S5,-
959. The dividends of corresponding
roads for the previous year were $780,
S51, 269, from which it appears that
the returns to the stockholders were
nearly sso.ooo.ooo greater than in the
year before.
The interstate commerce commission
eefers to a proposed increase of freight
rates OF from is to 20 per cent to south
western points. which ARE already alb
normally high"
It is very plain from these confirma-
tory statements that the people will
not look with favor upon an increase
q rates under present conditions, and
mat the railroad managers, If they de-
Ire to stand well with the public, must
present good and sufficient reasons for
such changes.

A RECEPTIVE CANDIDATE.


Some newspaper correspondent who
failed to append his name to his COM
mun1cation, stated a week or two ago
in the columns of one of our state dali
les, that Senator w. f. Hartman would
not be candidate for denomination.
Senior Hartman, when asked about the
matter, no longer ago than yesterday,
said that the statement was made with
out his knowledge or authority; that he
had not said that he would not again be
a candidate for senator He further said
that while he fully realized that he had
been the recipient of most generous
treatment at the hands of the people OF
the sena torial district, that he had been
solicited by constituents in Franklin ana
Hancock counties to allow his name to
be used in the ensuing campaign, and
that the most he had said, was that the
matter was entirely in the hands of his
friends. If they desired his services, he
would endeavor to serve them, if not, he
had no complaint to make or claims to
