Mark the similarity and yet the un-
likeness. Mr.. Sadler was removing
the mantle of Office, he no longer to
be the guiding hand upon the helm
of the ship of State. He was not look
ing into the future, but merely stating
his view of present conditions.
Governor Sparks re-echoed Mr.. Sad
ler's views regarding the prosperity
of the State, but he went further. He
considered the necessity of carefully
safeguarding and promoting the in
terests of Nevada in order that full
advantage may be taken of these rap
idly improving conditions.
Both executives feel in every sinew
of their being the grand present and
glorious future of this State, due to
conditions among which Tonopah and
Wedekind are but incidents. The only
deplorable feature of the messages by
the governors is the careful avoidance
of discussion of the national causes
for Nevadas growth and progress

ROME, Aug. S.-The King of Italy
paid a lengthy visit to the studio of
the celebrated sculptor, Signor Zocchi,
who has completed a splendid statue OF
Gar Alexandria H.
The Car is represented as riding on
horseback, holding the reins in his left

sity of calling upon his sister peoples
for assistance. Around the lofty
pedestal are portrayed the soldiers and
populace in a frenzy of excitement

Zens. peasants. women, and children. At
their head IS Grand Duke Nicholas, at

measures sixteen metres. All the fig
ures of persons are, II anything, larger

is OLDEST MINISTER
IN METHODIST CHURCH

STREATOR, H.. Aug. 3.-The Rev.
Byron Alden. of Streator. who will be
ninety-seven years old on. November 8.
is the oldest Methodist minister in the
world, being eight months older than
the Rev. Joseph Ayres. OF Sidney. Ohio.
who has been called the oldest Metho-
dist minister"
Mr.. Alden is still a forcible pulpit
preacher. and fills appointments occa-
sionaily. He spoke al the Methodist
conference at Streator last fall. when
his eloquence and force were much COM
mented on. He was born al Hinesburg.
VT. on November 5, 1906. He preached
in New York conferences several years
before coming 10 Illinois. In this State
his first assignment was at Woodstock.
where he remained ten years, going
later TO Gardner and Verona. The lat
ter was his last regular appointment.
and expired fifteen years ago.
There are curious coincidents in the
careers OF Mr. Alden and Mr.. Ayres. the
Oldest two Methodist ministers. Both
were born in Vermont. each entered on
his first regular assignment in New
York in 1880, and each is spending his
last years with his daughter.

Punishments in Public Schools.

To the Editor OF The Washington Times;
Public institutions for the last few months
in Washington have been undergoing stereo-
scopic tests. 1t would be we'll TO continue the
work further. No one has called attention 10
the public schools and to the management Of
our children.
The writer was told in a representative public
school Of the city that the rule in that in
stitution for the management Of youngsters was
forcing them to repeat an offense or INSIDE
meanor until the time specified by the teacher
expired. In other words, il boy or girl be-
came restless the punishment was that he or
she should keep up lively dance for fifteen or
twenty minutes.
Another form OF correction for nervous chill
dren is compelling them 10 stand rigid before
the blackboard and look at chalk cross a
stipulated :ime.
4 boy Of eight. excessively nervous from q
cause well known to the teacher, who had re-
ceived written notice Of the child's condition,
was told TO dance continuously the whole Of
recess Tor STOPPING in line 10 recover dropped
pencil. The result was such TO require the
attention Of a physician a few hours later,
just.
The same child was sent home with binding
headache one hot spring day from being kept
in a rigid position fifteen twenty minutes
before the chalk cross
Discipline is undoubtedly necessary, but Is 1t
unreasonable to suggest some other punishment

AUSTRIAN PRINCES
BARELY ESCAPE DEATH

VIENNA, Aug. 3. - Archduke Eugene
and Prince and Princess Augustus of
Coburg had a very narrow escape a few
days ago as they crossed the rails On
their way from kali TO Innsbruck, where
they had been attending the festivities
On reaching the station Sudbahn, the
barrier was down. as the train from
Innsbruck was expected. but seeing the
archduke's carriage waiting, the guards
man of3ciously reopened the barrier.
Prince Coburg's carriage followed that
OF the archduke, and then came one
with the suite.
The second barrier. however, could not
be opened the chain had got displaced.
and IL resisted every attempt to De
forced. The train was now approaching.
but in the nick of time the barrier was
forced aside. and the three carriages
got across in safety.

Novelist From Kansas.

The State Of Kansas may yet have
cause to regret it's action in elevating
the Hon Chester 1. Long TO the Senate.
Their regret, however, Will not be pro-
duced by reason of any Incorporate s-c-
tion on the part OF Senator Long, or be-
cause OF a lack of ability to properly
represent the Sunfower State in the po-
sition once SO honorably filled by the
late John j. ingalls,. IN fact, the jun
Tor Senator IS calculated to counterbal-
ance the idiosyncrasies of his colleague.
The cause for sorrow, II SORROW there
is to be. will be found in the fact that
the voters OF the Seventh district, which
was SO ably represented by Mr.. Long,
have selected as his successor novel

Decision of Judge LoChren.
1t Only Affects the Suits Brought by
the State of Minnesota.

The decision of Judge Lochren in
the Federal District court at st. Paul,
handed down on Saturday, turning
on the point whether or not the
Northern Securities Company is a
railroad corporation, Judge Loehren
decides that II is not The decision.
briefly stated, holds:
First, that the Northern Securities
Company IS not a railroad corpora
ton.
Second, that it is not a eombina-
ton IN restraint Of trade.
Third, that it does not violate the
State act prohibiting trusts.
This decision does not affect in the
least the results of the victory scored
by the Federal Government in the
Circuit Court, last winter, where the
verdict of the four judges was unani-
nous. The Federal suit involved. it
IS true, the same defendants and the
same general state Of facts, but 1t was
based on a totally different conten-
ton Of law. The Federal suit. In
which the Securities Company was
beaten, was a prosecution for viola
ton Of the Sherman antitrust law.
PASSED by the Federal Congress. The
suit brought by the State Of Mnneso-
Ia. which Judge Lochren has Just de-
cided in favor Of the Securities Com
pany, was a prosecution for violation
Of 4 statute enacted by the State.
The decision. last winter, against

held:
First, that the Northern Securities
Company is in effect a railroad cor
poration.
Second, that it is an illegal combi-
nation IN restraint Of trade.
Third, that it is illegal under the
terms of the Federal antitrust act.
This suit-the suit by The Federal
Government against the Securities
Company-comes up on appeal be

Belongs to Williams.


Since the George B. Mcclellan may
orally boom subsidized some of the friends
OF Little Mac" have been making an
attempt 10 force Linn into the fight for
minority leadership in the House When
Congress adjourned last March it was
generally conceded that the Hon John
Sharp Williams of Mississippi would fall
heir to this empty honor and become re-
sponsible for Democratic deeds and mis- =
deeds in the next House. 1t was appa-
rent to almost everyone that the Hon
James D. Richardson would not again
be selected for floor leader, IL he had re-
manned in the House, and his declara-
tion of intention to resign left the con-
test open to all who might aspire to this
position of little glory and much trou-
BILE.
The contest which began informally
before Mr.. Richardson announced his
intention to retire from public life did
not last long thereafter. Almost the
only rival of Mr.. Williams for the Dem
ocratic nomination for the SpeakershiP
which carries with Il the minority lead
ership was the Hon. Champ Clark
When Congress adjourned, however, Mr.
Clark was practically out Of the race.
and upon all sides the statesman from
YaZoo was regarded as certain OF win
ming. Mr.. Mcclellan was not then men
toned in connection with minority lead
ership. He smiled a great, broad smile
when the Tammany nomination for
mayor of Greater New York was sug-
gested, and among his associates there
was a feeling that they might be de
prived of his company by call from
the metropolis.
II New York has candidate for mi
nority leadership everyone thought the
man would be tbs Hon William Sui
ger, who was not unwilling, and who, his
ted, by reason OF his experience as
speaker of the assembly in the New
York Legislature. No one considered
Mr.. Mcclellan in this connection. Now
1t appears. however, that the New York
delegation intends to present the name
of George B. Mcclellan to the Demo-
cratic caucus. Mr.. Mcclellan is highly
regarded by his party associates and
occupies a prominent position in Sheir
ranks in the House, but it is not likely
that his candidacy will be pressed be-
yond the point OF giving him the com
plimentary vote of his State delegation
In the caucus.
