LIFE IN THE FAR WEST.

In Burma a dwelling house is built with
out a nail. 1t is hung on four upright
posts of teak or bamboo; seven or eight
feet from the ground the planking of the
floor is tied to the uprights with rattan;
the walls are made of split bamboo plait-
ed into beautiful and fanciful patterns.
The roof consists of the leaves of the
toddy palm, which have bbeen soaked in
salt water to make them insect-proof.
There are no windows, but large flaps
of the plated bamboo walls are raised in
the daytime TO admit light and air. The
house consists. in the case of the poor,
of onl yone good-szed ROOM but when
there are several chambers they lead off
from the common room and are separated
from it by partitions of plated bamboo
These are generally raised one or two fee.
from the floor of the common room, but
in no case is one floor above the other
in a Burmese house, il being thought a
great indignity to have any ones feet
over one head The matched roofs are
ha hly infamma bic and leaning against
every matched house may be seen a long
hooked stick with which to pull off the
roof should ii catch fire.

WHY, CERTAINLY!

The Steel trust and its asso-
ciates in the pools controlling the
price of steel met in New York
today to raise the whole list OF
rates "to suit the conditions
which have arisen in the iron and
steel markets.
Why, certainly!
"The conditions which have
arisen" consist of the election
whose result is interpreted by the
trusts as an assurance that the
operations will not be interfered
with either by the criminal law or
by a reduction in their tariff
bounties. They are now proceed
ing, in the language OF Wall
street, to "take profits.
"The Steel trust alone" said
Governor-elect Douglas Of MasSa-
chusetts, "reaps $SO,OOO,OoO a
year out of protection, and peck
cts it, selling abroad cheaper
than we can buy from it" Nat
urally, when the trust proposes to
squeeze the public still harder it
is more expedient to do the work
week after than a week before
the election.

Kansas newspapers are advo-
eating State laws that will prac-
tically prevent the Standard Oil
company from piping the gas
from that State. The Oil City
Derrick, of course, thinks it's
very wicked not to allow the
Standard to rob the State of its
gas without paying penny tax
or anything else it can avoid
paying. The Kansas people pro-
pose to enact a law requiring
gas companies to bury pipe lines
20 feet under the ground. If this
law is enacted the Standard will
leave quite a bunch of cash in
the State for digging trenches at
least. But the great monopoly
will prevent any such legislation
and the Standard will have its
own way just as it has in every
State it has done business IN, un-
less President Roosevelt takes up
the Standard case, then the fur
may begin to fly.

ROOSEVELT'S POLICIES.

ecutive since James Monroe, Inc
odore Roosevelt is the President
of all the American people.
His popular majority alone is
greater than the popular plurality
Of William Mckinley or any
former candidate. He was elect
ed not merely by Republican but
by Democrats, independents and
first voters, who were attracted
by Mr.. Roosevelt's versatile gen.
Jus and fascinating personality.
In Missouri $4,000 Democrats
must have voted for him. Some
of his admirers claim that in New
q York 100000 Democrats voted for
him. Never before in our history
were so many votes cast for can
didate for office. Black and white,
Protestant and Catholic, Jew and
Gentle, vie with one another IN
testifying at the ballot box their
faith in Mr.. Roosevelt's purposes
and their confidence in his states
manship.
So much for his personal tri-
ump. But what of the future?
From Washington come semi
authoritative hints as to Mr..
Roosevelt's policies which point
to other "surprises" than those OF
the election. The President, it is
said, appreciates the need of an
intelligent revision of the Dingley
schedules, and will call special
session of Congress for that pur-
pose.
Aggressive action, it is averred,
il to be taken against law-break-
ing trusts and monopolies. The
innquntous system of weighing
the United States mails is to be
swept away and long-needed re-
forms instituted in the postal SER
vice. The President is to insist
on a higher standard of ap-
pointments to the public service.
The recommendations Of the
bosses and machine politicians
will be ignored, and the service
will be purged of incompetent and
unworthy officials who owe their
places to pledges made by prev
ious campaign managers.
An effort will be made to con
ciliate the South and to show
that it is not race equality but
equality of opportunity which the
President desires. No occasion
will be neglected to advance the
cause of arbitration and to exert
the influence of the United States
in the cause of peace. The Pres
ident will do whatever lies in his
power to assist in the solution OF
the labor problem.
If Mr.. Roosevelt is seriously
considering these policies the fact
is highly creaitable to him. He
has already trampled under his
feet the greatest temptation that
beest him. By a plurality Of 2,
100000 the people have enamel
pated him from the bosses and
wire-pullers of his party. In an
nouncing that he will not be a
candidate for reelection Mr.
Roosevelt has emancipated him
self from himself.
He is free as no other President
of his party ever has been. His
obligations are all to himself and
to the American people. He has
exceptional courage, a real genius
for sounding public sentiment, al.
most unlimited capacity for labor
a personal knowledge of the needs
Of every department of the Gov.
eminent such as few of his pred.
ecessors have had, and back OF
him a following such as none OF
them ever commanded.

calities of the state create a sentiment
that would demand the repeal or amend

could take into consideration the charac-
ter and condition of the complaining

blackmail or purpose of revenge under
the present law are apparent to all.
