The Trust and the Boss.

From the Century.
The first bad and dangerous combination
which the trust makes is that with the So
called political machine Both the ma
chine and its manager. the boss existed be-
fore. The trust did not create them. The
men who made politics trade had already
acquired the power to cajole members OF
regular political parties and lead them
whittier they would. For carry on this
policy they came to need much more money
than they at first commanded, and the cor
porations had it In readiness. party that
has money and needs power Is in posi-
ton to make speedy bargain with one
that has power and needs money. The origi-
nal machine backed by the modern trust.
or the trust with the power of the old ma
chine put bodily into its hand-here Is a
combination = be dreaded.

CORRECT USE OF WORDS.

From the San Francisc99 Bulletin.
If education doesn't teach a man how to
use words correctly, it teaches him little.
Thought is conveyed from one mind to an
other by words; aId in order that there
may be a perfect meeting of minds among
men-in order, that Us, that the hearer or
reader may take the exact meaning which
the speaker or writer intends to express.
it is necessary that words be used and
understood rightly. If word means one
thing to a speaker and another to his
hearers, they will fail to catch his thought,
or, rather, they will attribute to him
thought that is not his. Many times per-
sons who are quite in accord with one an
other dispute because they mistake the
meaning of words. 1t should, therefore, as
Herbert Spencer said, be a matter of con-
science not to misuse words; 1t should also
be a matter of conscience to resist misuse
of them. Especially added Spencer,
SHOULD our own language be thus guarded.
If. as several unbiased foreign judges hold,
the English language will be, and ought
to be, the universal language, it becomes
the more duty of mankind to check bad
habits of speech"

Discussion of Taxation.

The discussion on the taxation of cor
porations has been on in West Virginia for
almost two years. The air has been filled
with what certain interests were disposed
to pay to resist encroachments and of the
substantial part they played in the pre-
liminary canvasses. and subsequently. The
sudden rise to wealth of West Virginians
who care for political honors and who are
not averse to contributing for the same, has
been an incidental factor in influencing the
voter. Besides, the fact that millionaires
represent the state in the Senate and others
aspire to do so helps bring about a con-
dition that did not obtain in West Virginia
previous to its marvellous development on
industrial lines.
The republicans being in the ascendancy.
and having unwillingly or willingly
adapted themselves to the situation,
they naturally have to keep up the
pace. Unfortunately, the thing has
been getting worse, and This year the re-
publican managers do not seem to be in as
good a position for handling the mass
that wants TO be handled. This element
has increased with the opening of mines
and other kinds of industry that have
brought increased popula ton from other
states largely from E,urope

Rumors of Barrel on Tap.

The democrats have likewise to meet a
similar condition, due largely to the con-
slant rumors that Henry G.. Davis has a
barrel on tap. The voter who is locking

The Voters and the Price.

There are 100000 voters in West Virginia.
Four years ago the republicans had ap-
proXimately 10000 as against 10000 that
voted the democratic ticket. Figuring on
this basis and also on the fact that a
change of 10000 votes from republican to
democratic would tie the tickets the the
DRY is being advanced that the democrats
can easily carry West Virginia by the ju-
dicious expenditure of 100000
This scheme is entertaining the mathema-
ticlans who have ex-senator Davis in view
and 1t does not follow that their scheme will
materialize. They argue that Davis natu-
rally wants TO carry West Virginia and
that he could increase his contribution TO
devote this sum to West Virginia alone
Speaking old-bloOdedly. it is argued that
100000 can influence 10000 'doubtfur'
votes and a thousand or two extra This
would be on the basis of SO each and that
standard is high although the trend has
been steadily upward, beginning with 81

JAMES HART DOES NOT
FAVOR CHANGES IN BALL RULES
President of Chicago Club Will Not Urge
Adoption Of Three Ball Rule.

James A. Hart. president of the Chi
cago Baseball Club and member of
the Rules Committee of the National
League. wants the present code of
rules to remain unchanged for an
other season, and kept identical in all
the leagues. While being strongly in
favor of a three-ball rule. giving the
batsman his base on three called balls
instead of four. he will not urge its
passage this year.
All the changes in the rules for the
past twenty years, according to Hart,
were made. not with the idea of radi-
cal departures, bat to keep the game
at it's best. and the fact that the
players grew too shrewd for the rules.
Hart contends that the foul-out-on-
first bound was abolished because the
players got the play down too fine.
Then the foul-tip-out had to be done
away with owing to the successful eff
forts of catchers to fool umpires and
to stop constant rows.

Descendant of King David.

From the Philadelphia Press.
A lineal descendant of King DaVid
died in Philadelphia on Sunday. Mrs
Gustav Lipschuetz was her name. Sne
lived with her husband and t1Ve
children at 1919 Diamond street out
death came in st. Luke's Hospital
where she had undergone an opera
ton. She was SO years of age. Through
the misty reaches of sacred history
this woman could trace her kfnshlp
to the distinguished Jewish family
Abarbanel, whose relationship to King
David is undoubted and whose acnleVe-
ments throughout Europe are matters
of history. Mrs. Lipschuetz, whose
maiden name was Bertha Neumanh'
sprang from that branch of the family
of which Don Isaac Abarbanel, Prime
Minister of Spain in 1892, was the
head. During that time, when per
secution against the Jews began as
result of the change in the religious
views of Ferdinand and Isabella, Don
Isaac was obliged to flee with his less
favored brethren. The family scatter
ed, settling in various parts of Eu-
rope Don Isaac afterward became
prime minister in Italy. The grand
father of the dead woman was Rudolph
Hirsch Abarbanel, one of the foremost
rabbis of Germany in the last cen
tury. The city of Gretz, where he
died gave him a public funeral, and
the government buildings were draped
in mourning.

laid against Catholic truth-that it op-
poses liberty. that it thwarts science.
that it retards human progress?
The Church does indeed condemn and
deem worthy of severe restraint that
boundless license of thinking and act
ing for which no authority, human or
divine, is sacred. no rights free from
assault, and which by undermining the
foundations of order and discipline Is
hurrying states to their destruction, but
this is not true liberty but the corrup-
ton of liberty. Sincere and genuine lib
erty, the liberty which permits every
body to do what is right and just, the
Church not only does not suppress but
she has ever contended that it should
be as broad as possible. Their asser-
tion that faith is opposed to science is
not less at variance with the truth, for
it IS absolutely true faith that is of
service to science, and in no small de-
gree.
For, in addition to those truths which
are above nature. and of which man
can have no knowledge without faith,
there are many and very important
ones in the order of nature to which
human reason may attain. but which
are perceived with much greater GER
tainty and clearness with the light of
faith upon them; as for the others, it
is absurd to set one truth against an
other since bofh kinds of truth proceed
from one source and origin; that is,

Why then should not we, who are the

Four well filed running events are

There is little to figure in this race
Leonoster has won in impressive style
both times he has started since he was
put on edge for a race. All during the
fall he was turned out, and in no shape
for a race, having been fired last
spring. When he started at the track
in one of the matinee events several
weeks ago, he ran IN front in most i'm
pressive style, and was easily the best
of the lot, KingfuIl being one of the
