SOCIETY REGARDS
 EXPoSITloNs INADVERTENTLY.

When 1t comes to expressing any inter- fleets the most indifferent attitude, as if it was the proper thing to look blase when expositions are mentioned And yet al- most every one has some desire to spend at least few days in St. Louis and the interest will increase after the brilliant opening of the exposition the first of May.
 This apathy, or whatever the present lack of interest may be called, is not due to an absence of national pride, or to a want of appreciation of American pro- gress and enterprise It is the result rather of preceding expositions. It is frequently said that one exposition sat isfies for all times, and to a large extent when one has seen one exposition one has seen them all. The endless sight-see- ing. the great buildings, the noisy throngs the discomfort attending days of fatigue cannot be forgotten, and a great many people are willing to forego visit to the exposition rather than to undergo the worry and hurry of such trip. On the other hand there is equally as large class who are willing to undergo any amount of discomfort in order to say they have been to the exposition.
 The St. Louis exposition will repay even the most indifferent visitor. Ger tainly no one ever regretted any discom- fort attending the worlds fair in Chi cago. A day at the White City, that dream city, was worth a year anywhere else.
 The St. Louis exposition, it is said, will surpass the Worlds fair. Even Ameri- cans who have watched the progress of other expositoins are amazed at the gigantic work and the architectural beau- ty of the buildings. In their arrange ment they are second only to the build ings of the Paris exposition which na- turally had an advantage over other ex- position cities with it's Place de la Con corde and it's Seine.

But If we are to have an investigation let us have a genuine one and not an inquiry to meet a mere political exigency."
 MT. Culberson said that 1T explicit charges were necessary they could be subject in the case of the Montague in- dicator and in that of John w. Petit.

Have Had a Spectacle.


 We have had the spectacle of the only original trust buster the attorney general who acted as lord high executioner and a score or more assistants" said Mr. Sim mons, and they have managed to find two trusts to prosecute"
 Continuing, MT. Simmons asked:
 What do the people want-a man who will execute their will or a man who will bend them to his will?" He urged an in- vestigation of the postoffice departmen. and declared the Brstow report showed that Machen's intriguing was not bold until MT. Heath became first assistant postmaster general. Mir. Simmons said that only three of the persons found to have been mixed up in the postoffice frauds were appointed under the dema- CTS tic administrations
 At the conclusion of Mir Simmons speech, MT. Spooner urged his point of or der against the Culberson amendment and MT. German insisted that under a liberal construction of the rules the chair or the senate could hold anything in order.
 The point of order was sustained but Mir German persisted and made various notifications of the proposition in order to bring it within the rule and finally eliminated all provisions for an appropri- ation. MT. German said conditions in the postoffice department were such as to make an inquiry imperative. The report of the fourth assistant postmaster gen eral practically charged members of congress with being confederates of Ma chen and Beavers, and on this account congress could not in justice to itself refuse to make an inquiry The Presi- dents memoranda in the Machen case he said. also raised a question as to the conduct of the members and under these charges congress could not afford to let the matter rest. The departments re- flection upon congress he denounced as an outrage and said that instead of their being question of politics involved. the honor and integrity of congress were in question.
 Is an Honest Man. He pronounced the postmaster general an honest man but said he was to be criticised in failing to demand con- gressional investigation. With only four democrats out of nine members of the commission, nothing would be permitted to get out. If the matter was to have any effect in the political campaign 1t was now in the best condition to accom- plish that end. because as it now stood, he said the republican party refused to permit an inquiry.
 Senators on the other side" he said "may regard their case so desperate that they will not permit any peep into the books. We'll you have the power of course and you can prevent an inquiry if you wish to do so as you have two- thirds of the members of the senate MT. Aldrieh replied, saying: ''rhe amendment in it's present shape shows the folly of attempting such legislation as this on an appropriation bill. Mr. German has emasculated it so that it is of no effect whatever. If we are to have mn investigation let it be live one.'
 '.,rhen let us have one suggested MT. German, without rising. and MT. Aldrieh

Simmons Answers spooner.

MT. Simmons answered the recent speech or MT. Spooner, who defended Postmas- ter General Payne from what he treated as an attack by MT Simmons in previous remarks MT. Simmons declared today that his remarks il reference to the re- luctance of the postoffiee department to take an investigation and referred to the hesltancy of former Postmaster General smith and not the present Postmaster General Payne. He reiterated however. ms belief that the investigation had been delayed and also that the present post master general had not treated fairly the offer of $. w. Tulloch to give testimony Tn regard to conditions in the department The act of Encouragement. says MT. Sim mons, was calculated to deter the work of unearthing the scandals in the depart ment.
 MT Simmons said he had been charged Wlth advocating the selection of a neu- tral man for President He (Smmons) had demanded a calm. well-poised dispo- sitfon and mind, judicial and conservative temperament and asked whether that would be regarded as a neutral man. Turning to the republican side he said he supposed the candidate wanted was one who would overturn affairs of the Twen- tleth century. make new laws when the present ones do not suit and treaties With foreign countries without the advice or consent of the senate He said the country has witnessed the spectacle of President held forth on the one han as trust buster and on the other as a safe man for business interests.

ALORICH REPLIES TO HIM

Washington April 1.-The Culberson amendment to the postoffice appropriation bill providing a commission to investigate the postoffce department was before the senate today and after being ruled out of order was pending in modified form when the senate adjourned.
 MT. German made an earnest plea for an investigation, saying the postoffice de- partment had cast reflection upon mem- bers of congress and that thorougi ex- animation should be made MT Aldrich replied that the amendment as finally modified meant nothing, that if an inves- tigation was to be had it should be a Tive one"
 He said that if any such specific charges would be brought in they should be looked Into by congress but the demand should not be made part of the general apsrc- priation bill. Semi i-political speeches were made by Messrs. Teller and Simmons.
 Discussing newspaper statements that the republican leaders already have se- lected their candidate for president and the platform on which he will stand. Mr. Teller criticised the programme as one to which the masses had not the oppor- tunity to contribute He read a state ment to the effect that reciprocity would be part of the programme and asked MT Aldrich what he though of the pro- gramme.
 T believe as you do," said MT Aldrich. that such matters should be left to the convention"
