pooned and abused worse, perhaps,
than any man before or since by these
very men whose friendship he now so
assiduously seeks The genesis OF Mr..
Hanna from an energetic business man
wi,h a labor record, not particularly
distinguished for leniency. into a po-
litical leader and finally o United
States senator who is the leading spirit
II not the founder of the Civic fedora
ton, is a remarkable instance Of what
the political bee will make man do
when 1t gets to buzzing In his bon

II am surprised to see that Mr.. Han
ma so fatty denies the proposition that
organized labor is founded on the
principle Of force. when every day fur
nishes demonstrations In proof of my
charge The only reason why the an
thracite miners received wage scale
confsssediy out Of proportion to what
similar labor gets elsewhere, is because
they were able to compel its granting
by force. They prove their power by
going on strikes and preventing other
men from taking their places despite
the presence of the National Guard of
Pennsylvania. The country was at
their mercy, and finally, as a measure
OF expediency, It became necessary for
the government to negotiate with them
that peace might be purchased. Is this
the kind OF business Mr.. Hanna en-
courages?
"Mr. Hanna corralled the manufac-
turers of the country in the first Nc
Kinley campaign because of the
fear of Bryanism. He led them in the
Mckinley camp because of this fear,
but II he thinks he can ring nose the
manufacturers of the country on the
labor issue and lead them into the
camp of Gompers and his aggregation,
l think he overestimates his. strength
and influence very much. The Ma

Militia as Coast Defenders.

General Robert Shaw Oliver, the neW
assistant secretary of war, under whose
charge are the general problems of
state militia organization, Is anxious
to stimulate the formation of compa
MES of heavy artillery in the seaboard
states as reserve to man the coast
defenses in time Of war. Secretary
Root dwelt briefly on this point in his
last years report and General Oliver
desires that additional emphasis be
laid on it at this time. When the ma
tional militia bill was under considera
ton the secretary pointed out that if
it became law an effort should be made
"to procure the organization of a ma
tional guard force of heavy artillery
in the neighborhood of each coast de-
fense fortification, with the under
standing that whenever the president
finds occasion to call out militia to re-
pei invasion that organization will be
called into that fortitication." Con-
tinuing, the report said:
In the meantime an immediate and spe-
cial relation should be established be-
tween the militia organization and the
fortifcation for the purpose of practice
and instruction. They should be made as
familiar as possible with the use of the
guns and methods of defense at that par
ticular point. In many cases 1t will be
practicable to give them facilities for
meeting and keeping their equipment on
the military reservation, which would
make unnecessary any outside armory
for their use. Such an organization could
readily perform all its duties to the state
serving as infantry, but 1t could at the
same time be distinctly known and con-
stantly prepared for service as the militia
reserve of the fortification with which it
sustains the relations described.
Something has already been done to-
ward the establishment of such re-
lation, a number of militia companies
in New York, Connecticut and Massa-
chusetts having taken up this branch
of the service and being each year ad-
mitted to the harbor forts for artillery

ployed in Pittsburg hotel, the other
named Dowst and experimenting the
culinary department of a hosiery IN
Montana. are going to have cooking
contest, says the Minneapolis Times
Each will serve dinner of seven
courses, the one producing the best
meal to receive $1,000. Dowst believes
in cooking without the use of liquors.
while Petit contends that many VI
ands can be greatly improved with a
dash of brandy or wine. The contest
will not only test the skill of the men,
but show whether fine cooking can be
done on lines Of teetotalism. A con
test like that is worth while we
need more cooking matches and FEWER
prize fights.

Mile Ride on a wild Moose

]. d. Campbell, wealthy citizen Of
Duluth, Mimi, recently had an eXcit-
ing ride on the back of huge bull
moose forty miles north of Duluth,
says the Chicago Record Herald. Camp"
bell and a party of three others were
hunting in the big swamp when sud
denly they came upon the moose
Campbell mounted its back with sin
gle leap, and away went the terrified
animal through the thicket and brush.
Campbell, who had expected no serious
danger from his performance, clung
desperately to his position on the AMI
NAL, which after a wild run of mile
or more plunged into slough. where
the moose sank to its stomach. and It's
rider dismounted in safety. finally Kill
ing the moose with one shot.

Flowers have their day in the fash

says the Washington Star. The expen

rare exotic has superseded even the
violet, which will be only used in con
junction with it. Just over the heart Is
the spot la mode has selected for cor
sage flowers resting place. The Amer
lean Beauty will be the rose par excel
lence for decoration and as an offering
at beautys shrine. Nothing in the flo

place given this magnificent rose.

ers used for the autumn and early win

American Steel Rails For Turkey

American Steel Rails For Turkey.
The Pittsburg Dispatch reports that
the Turkish government has closed a
contract with the Pennsylvania Steel
company for 10000 tons of steel rails
to be delivered at Beirut. The fact
that the contract was secured only
after strong competition with the
krupps and several Belgian firms in
also not without significance as show
ing the constantly increasing inroads
which American manufacturers are
making in the foreign markets Of the
world The rails are to be used in the
construction of the road projected
from Damascus through that portion
of Turkish domains extending along
the Red sea coast to Medina, thence to
Mecca. Its chief use will be for the
TRANSPORTATION of the countless hordes
in the annual pilgrimages to the shrine
of Mohammedanism
While the contract is not an unusual
ly large one when compared with some
made with the Russian and japanese
governments, it is highly significant as
Indicating a revival in the foreign de-
mand for American steel rails and
also a good omen for the future. In
view of the present depressed state Of
the iron and steel industry such indica-
tions are decidedly gratifying.

New Mask For Automobiles.

The difficulty automobilists find in

satisfactorily solved, says Paris ca
BILE dispatch to the New York Herald.
Ugly masks and goggles are now like
ly to be cast aside for new mask,
which is strong and transparent and
modities in no way the appearance OF
fair compilations. 1t is constructed of
transparent horn, with the usual spec
tacle glasses, and thus obviates the
danger of fire so much feared with in
fiammable celluloid masks.

practice. If the plan is carried out
coast will have reserve of militia,
who will make their encampment
there each year and will know that it
is to be their station in case war breaks
out. This is in the strictest sense the
duty to "repel invasion" to which the
constitution refers, and such service
would doubtless appeal to many men
who would hesitate about enlisting in
body which in war time is liable to
be ordered to distant parts of the
country.
