Confessions Of Mr.. Davis.

At the beginning of his "whirl.
windp stumping tour in Mary
land and West Virginia the ven
cradle democratic candidate for
vice. president divulged an in
teresting campaign secret. He
said to his Rockville audience:
Il had no more to do with my
nomination than you had" and
then, turning to David B. Hill:
who sat beside him, he added,
Il was selected by this distin-
guished friend, and / suppose
owe him a great deal for the
trouble he has got me into. %
It has beenknown from the first
that Judge Parker owed his nom
ination to his political preceptor
and confidential friend, the ex-
senator from New York, but un-
til Mr.. Davis confessed the truth
had not been aware that Hill
personally chose both the demo.
cratic candidates on the national
ticket. -.--New York Tribune.

Hurty Becomes Sensational.


DIR. N. J. Hurry, secretary of
the state board of health, does
not underestimate the value of
the spectacular in convincing
people of certain facts. 1t is
probably true that part of his
pronounced success in arousing
the people of the state to a realli-
zation of matters pertaining to
public health is due to his con-
vinciAg method of placing the
facts before the people.
For example there was recent
ly issued from his office PAM
phlet on smallpox. On the front
cover was a revolving picture of
a person who had died from the
disease, and scattered through
out we're photographs as equally
unpleasant. Even the reading
matter was couched in words ef-
fective for their purpose, and the
whole result was calculated to
make the reader determine to be
vaccinated at the very first OPP
portunity.

Lee Looks Novel Point.

A Chinaman named Lee Look
is under. sentence of death in a
California jail. He was tried for
murder and duly convicted, and
there does not appear to be any
doubt of his guilt. His victim
was a fellow Chinese, not a white
man, and this circumstance is re-
spOnsible for one of the most in
geuious and remarkable points
ever made ground for appeal in
a criminal case.
Lee Look had his case carried
up to the United States Supreme
Court. setting up the objection to
to the conviction and sentence
that in the original Indictment it
was not averred that the victim
of the alleged murder was hu-
man being, and that there was
nothing to show that he was not
a dog. Of course, the name of
the murdered Chinaman was Civ
en- in the indictment, but in the
opinion of Lee Look and his at
torney it was not a name which
necessarily excluded the posi-
bilitY mentioned.
The Supreme Court dismissed
the appeal the other day for
want of jurisdiction; that is the
point was not one that could
properly be raised under any
provision of the federal Constitu-
ton. The effect of this ruling is
to affirm the death sentence, and
the merit, technically speaking,
of Lee LOOKS curious ground for
reversal may never be determin-
ed. On the part OF the prosecu-
tion in the case the omission of
the averment that the victim was
a human being was an extraor-
dinary one.

Water Power OF America.

The old mill in the valley with
it's overshot or undershot wheel
is entitlee to feel that it is being
vindicated. When the day of
steam came and water power was
discarded, as a thing altogether
antiquated and too slow for mod
ern needs and methods the old mill
fell into decay, the race filled up.
the gates rOtted and the age of
steam was believed to have come
for all time. But the old mill is
being indicated,
At the recent meeting of tn e
British Association for the ad.
vancement of Science a paper
was read giving the following
figures of horse power produced
by water power electric installa-
tions: The United States, 527,-
467; Canada, 228,225; Italy, 21O,
600; France, 161, ,343 and Switzer.
land 1873, 3O2-and the installa.
tion of water power is yet in its
infancy, with the United States
in the van and taking enormous
strides in the race for supremacy.
The saving inifuel by the use
of water power is enormous. 1.-The
great milling and other industri-
es of Minneapolis furnishing one
illustration, with the fact that,
in California, there are lines of
long distance transmission of
water power, one 232 and the
other 147 miles in length, fur
nishing another illustration. 1t
was estimated, in the paper read
before the British association,
that the total horse power pro-
duced by water effected an annual
saving of not less than II, 720, 900
tons of fuel. and it was further
stated that the horse power pro-
duced by wafer in the world
doubled the horse power produc-
ed by steam in the manufacture
ing establishments of England,
Scotland, Ireland and Wales.
The old mill may we'll feel that
it's day of vindication has come
at last. The power that is pro-
dnced by water takes nothing
from the actual fuel capital of
the world, while the power pro.
duced by steam is constantly eat
ing into the mines and destroying
a capital the ingenuity of man
can not replace BY caring for
the forests and by reforestation
however, he will always be cer-
tain of a cheap. an efficient and
tireless energy, which, having
turned one mill or driven one
trolley line, or lighted one city,
passes on to the next with undi-
minished vigor and unimpaired
vitality.
Verify, many Of the old ways
are as good as if not better than
many of the new, and the water
power of America is, practically,
limitless in the uses to which it
can be applied. Commercial

Women Suffrage.

There is not a shadow of a
doubt that if majority or even
large minority of American
women really wished to vote,
American men would give them
that privilege just as soon as the
necessary legal forms could be
complied with. But the over
whelming majority of American
women doHnot wish to vote.
This is not because they fail to
understand what power the suf-
frage would give them, bnt be-
cause they understand too we'll
the disadvantages which the pos
session of that privilege would
infiict upon them. The usual
history of reformatory ideas is
that at first they are generally
opposed, then tried by a few and
in a small way, then are increas-
ingly liked and finally put into
effect in a large way. Such was,
for example, the history of the
idea that man should not hold
man as property. The history
of the women's suffrage idea has
been just the reverse. The more
it has been tried in small ways
the less it has been liked. The
reason is that on trial it's effects
are seen to be just the reverse of
whatits advocates thought. For
example, it was said that if wom-
en- could vote politics would be
made purer The present condi-
tion of Colorado answers the as
,sertion. Women vote there just
as men do, and the only effect
has been to plunge women as
we'll as men into the evils of cor
rupt politics. There has been
no gain to society and a positive
loss in public esteem to woman
hood.-Chicago Inter Ocean,

The Southern Vote.

Mississippi has a population
in excess of 100000. and yet
last year Governor Vardaman's
vote was only trifle over 80. 900.
so that only about one person
out of fifty took part in the State
contest True, Missippi has very
large colored population that is
not allowed to take any part in
the election but the white popu.
lation of Mississippi is almost
as great as the population of the
state of Maine, while the vote
cast in Maine in 1902 was nearly
three times as great as that
thrown for Governor Vardaman
in 1903. Yet Mississippi is rep
resented in Congress by eight
members in the lower branch,
which is double the number ac-
corded to Maine and equal to the
combined representation of the
three northern New England
States, Maine, New Hampshire
and Vermont. If no stronger
argument can be advanced in
favor of white rule in the South

where this rule is perhaps most
rigidly enforced man like

Good Women in Japan.

Good and patriotic women are
the same the world over, the
New York Sun thinks, on read
ing the following extract from a
letter from an American woman
in Japan, whose position brings
her into contact with Japanese
officiaedom and gives herunusual
opportunities to study the life of
the people:
l am in closest touch with the
wives and mothers, and they are
fitting compliments TO the fight
ing men. What higher need of
praise can be given them? With
a strength born of the needs of
the hour. they work with endur-
ance and a singleness of purpose
which is most remarkable when
you consider that no demands
have ever been put upon them.
The feudal bars are down, and
the. imperial princesses and the
nobility work side by side with
their humble sisters in a common
cause.-the life of their beloved
land. Thus you may see them
today coequals with their West
ern sisters in all that stands for
the best in life. All honor to the
women of Dai Nippen-but for
them their flag would never have
reached the pinnacle.

Coming RooseveIt's Way.

The New York Herald. which
has been supporting the candi-
dacy of Alton B. Parker for
Pre- sident, is out in an editorial
conceding victory to President
Roosevelt. 1t says:
In three weeks the people
will have to decide who will be
their cfiolce, Mr.. Roosevelt or
Judge Parker.
"To speak frankly, there does
not appear to De room for much
uncertainty as to their probable
decision. 1t seems almost
forgone conclusion that Mr..
Roosevelt will be elected not,
perhaps because the people have
confidence in him and in his con.
ception of the presidential tunc-
tions, but because the country
is prosperous and thus the neces-
sity for change is not very
pressing.
Judge Parker must surely re-
lize that he can not arouse the
American people over the Philip
pines. For good or for evil and
with the sacrifice of American
blood the islands have been &C.
quired and the United States can
abandon them no more than Ger
many could abandon the annex
ed provinces of Alsace and Lor-
raine.

American and German Univer-
sites.

The great strides made by
American colleges in recent years
have constituted one of the
most hopeful signs in the edu-
cational world. The German
universities have long been re-
garded as the foremost in the
world, but United States Consul
Henry W. Diedrich at Bremen
believes that our home institu-
tions compare very favorable
with those of the land of Kant
and Goethe. In a recent report
he says:
American educational institu-
tions are the best eqipped in the
world / know but one German
university that can claim to be up
to the times in this regard, and
it stands third in the list of at.
tendance. There is a steady
progress all along the line of
public instruction in the United
States and particularly iu our
higher class of universities.
No American need any longer
come to this or go to any other
country for higher education. In
my judgement the United States
offers today facilities for .colle-
giate, academicaf and postgrad-
uate studies equal in quaint !
and vuality to those offered by
any country in the old world.
