Judge HdrriSOn'S Opinion.

When Judge Richard A. Harrison
says that, in his opinion, the Supreme
Court of the United States will sus-
tain the Court of Appeals in the
Northern Securities case, few Ohio
lawyers will dispute the conclusion
reached by the dean of the Columbus
bar.
Judge Harrison interprets the
courts ruling as applicable only to
those combinations which, as in the
case of parallel railroad lines under
one management, interfere with in
terstate commerce and destroy COM
petition
He believes that the decision will
prove helpful to legitimate business
and will encourage investment in cor
pOrate securities, since it will pre-.
vent a limited number of men from
obtaining control of great corpora
tions and conducting them at the ex.
pense of their stockholders and to
the public detriment.

decision to President Roosevelt, the
imam of courage;" to his fighting At
torney General, to the court in whose
reasoning the great Ohio jurist car
find 20 flaw, and to Senator Sherman
whose views of 13 years ago have beer
indicated by the conditions of to
day.
Most intelligent men who have
studied the decision agree with Judge
Harrison in his conclusions. No mar
yet knows how far reaching may bt
the results of the courts action.

ly headlong career of at least par
of the great and dangerous combina
tions of capital has been checked

The English delegation of mechan-
les who visited this country two or
three months since, to learn what
they could of American workmen,
tools and manufactures, have report
ed that the American workmen, as a
class, are better. fed, better clothed,
better paid and better housed and
are more sober and more intelligent,
But they add. ''the English work
man has nothing to learn from the
American workman" 1t might do to
suggest to the Englishman that while
we were willing to teach our Eng
lish friends we did not undertake tC
s'learn" them anything.

HerriCk to Be Nominated.

After his conversation with Sena-
tor Hanna last week, George B. Cox,
of Cincinnati, announced his inten-
tion of supporting Col. Herrick for
Governor. This will save all unseen
ly contention for the honor. But
Hon. Albert Douglass, of Chillicothe.
does not look at it in that way, for
he announces that he is going to stay
in the race. When shown the state
ment of Cox, he said:
"While am, of course, disappoint-
ed somewhat, l am not surprised by
Cox's announcement that he will sup
port Mr.. Herrick. 1 have said from
the beginning, and have not doubted
at any time, that Senator Hanna had
it in his power to nominate any one
this year for Governor if he saw fl
to exert it. hoped and had reason
to believe that he would not use hi
great and deserved influence amonl
Ohio Republicans to control the nom
ination, and 1 cannot help feelin,
sure that it will be wise to leave tn,
convention free to make nomination
from among the men aspiring to, es
pecially since all are the friends o
Senator Hanna and devoted to his re
election to the Senate.
Perhaps Mr.. Herrick might secur
the nomination without Senator Han
mas inSuence exerted in his behalf
Perhaps he may not secure it eve
should Senator Hanna actively SUI
port him. That chance, at any rate
I shall take. My own candidacy is
no wise affected by the announce
ment of Mr.. Cox. 1 shall be a cand
date for the nomination until tn
convention is over, and shall then b
lready, whether nominated or not,
take the stump for the nominee an
for the success and principles of th
Republican party"

THE HAND
That Rocks the Cradle Rules the
World"

There is some difference of opin-
ion as to the date. When Chairman
Clingerman and Secretary Wallace
met here last week to fl the date for
the committee meeting it was deter
mined in an informal way that June
9 and 10 would be the time for the
convention. 1t now transpires that
these dates must be changed if SEN
ator Hanna is to be on hand to strike
the keynote His daughter, Miss
Ruth Hanna, is to be married to Jo-
seph Mccormick, of Chicago, on the
10th of June, and of course the Ohio
Senator will attend that function.
The date therefore may be fixed for
one week earlier or a week later
than the time originally discussed"
