Boston TRANSCRIPT

Speaker Cannon's refusal TO allow his
name TO be used for the vice presiden-
tial nomination is as emphatic as he
can make itand he has a talent for en-
phasis. /; Is nothing wonderful that he
prefers the speakership to the vice
presidency, The Speaker OF the House
OF Repres' natives is always conspicu-
Gus and always n force in legislation
whereas the Vice President In ordinary
times seems superiluous. He is the pre-
siding officer OF the Senate. a post Of
great dignity, to be sure, but not one
that Is the cynosurc Of all political eyes
Not infrequently he exercises his pow
er by proxy, So little attention does a
Vice President ordinarily receive that
there Is no distinction in his occupying
the presiding officers chair. That duty
goes with his office. on the other hand
to be elected president, pro tempore,
OF the Senate cOnfers distinction on a
senator since It demonstrates that the
majority regard him as both forceful
and parliamentary.

Cleveland Plain Dealer.

But the speakers refusal only makes
more distinct the similarity between his
position and that with which Mr..
Roosevelt was confronted four years
ago. The latter was drafted into SER
vice much against his will. Would Mr..
Cannon, II nominated in spite of him
self, feel free to disregard the precedent
Of 1900? one large difference appears.
Mr.. Roosevelt had he persisted In re-
fusing the vice presidency, would have
found himself speedily out Of politics,
for the time being. Mr.. Cannon can
stick to his present purpose and still re-
main the first citizen Of the republic
after the president. or become again
the leader Of a minority party In con-
gress. He has two big anchors to wind
ward

II Speaker Cannon gains the Repub-
lican nomination for Vice President,
Congressman William Alden Smith Of
Michigan can justly feel that nc had a
great deal TO do with the achievement.
When he pressed Uncle Joe" fer the
presidency he was doubtless willing to
come down rung or two. Mr., smith
should have the honor Of nominating
the Speaker in the national convention.

WHY DO WE OFFER SUCH
WONDERFUL HOSIERY
VALUES?

We will tell you These hose were made in
Chennitz, Germany by the largest hosiery man
ufacturers in all Germany for two of the biggest
retail concerns in America, the II. A. Medium
Co. and the Anderson Co., the two largest dry
goods houses of Buffalo, N. Y.
There was considerable delay in the delivery
Of these goods owing to factory troubles, and
both these Buffalo firms refused to accept the
goods at this late day. The Chemnitz agent inn
mediatey offered them to our New York buyer
at his own figures and we did the rest, That's
the story in a nutshell, All the boxes containing
these goods bear the names OF the above firms
just as they were shipped to this country.

the system would be complete.
Merchants more fully realize the
position than do land owners
themselves, as witness the eager
ness with which the merchants
of Hickman fell in with the prop
osition to call the matter to the
attention of the Fiscal court.
That Il system of taxation, either
state or local, is the key to the
situation must be admitted from
the lead taken by progressive
good roads advocates, as note the
utterance of w. III. Moore, pres
ident of the National Good Roads
Association. Mr.. Moore Is an
advocate of a state highway
commission and the employment
of competent engineers to direct
the work. He wants convicts
taken out of competition with
honest labor and put to work up
on the roads, and he wants va
grants to be forced to render SER
vice on the highway instead of
being confined in jails at the
county's expense. The public
is being educated up to a point
where good roads will be a popu-
lar measure, and it will be well
for those in authority to heed
the warning.

 The Los Angeles Times of late date states that J. P. C1um, charac- ter well known throughout the south vest, having been Indian agent at San Carlos, in Arizona, Mayor and post master of Tombstone, and of late a travelling inspector of the Postoffice Department. is out with a handsome fielder descriptive of the California Arctic Excursion" He. in conjunc- ton with JamesW. Erwin, has arrang- ed a long and interesting trip. leaving St. Louis on May IS, and taking in Colorado. California-north and south Puget Sound, and by a chartered steamship to British Columbia and' Alaska, thence to East Cape, in Sibe- ria, and back by way of Nome, Daw- son and Skagway, the return trip through Alaska being made by rail. From Seattle. on the way back, the excursionists will travel through Mon tana, taking in the Yellowstone Ma t:onal Park. This is probably the most ambitious excursion that has yet been planned for the Pacific coast.
 MT. Cum is well known in Bisbee and Tombstone. Sixteen years ago he handled mail at Tombstone, and will be remembered by all old-timers. His contemplated excursion will ac- cordingly be read with much interest hereabouts.

MAN WHO HELD UP ANCHOR SA- LOON IS BELIEVED TO BE AN
 OLD OFFENDER.

Charles Jagers. the man who made the unsuccessful attempt to hold up the Anchor saloon. was brought before Justice Brown yesterday. He de- manded the statutory time to plead, and was given twenty-fOur hours.
 The fact now develops that he was not alone in his attempt to rob the faro game. A stranger who was in the saloon at the time of the hold-up has disappeared, and officers are searching for him. A good descrip- tion of the man has been given the officers. and his capture is certain
 At the time the hold-up occurred one of the men in the saloon asked the stranger to give him his gun. The request was refused. The robber could have been shot. as he paid no attention to those in the rear of him.
 When seen at the jail yesterday Jagers had nothing to say regarding his actions on the morning previously. He was perfectly unconcerned and was enjoying a quiet rest in his bunk in the jail.
 The officers are positive that Jagers is an old offender. From letters found in his room it was learned that he had been at Salt Lake. Spokane, Denver and other places during the past four months He claims to be under 21 years of age.
 Judge Brown fixed his bail at g, 900, in default of which he was re- manded to jail to appear today for trial.

The alleys were received in good con dition, and when installed will add very materially to the attractiveness as well as utility of the place. It will probably be four or five weeks before things will be in shape so that bowling can be commenced on the new alleys, and it is proposed to ar range an event of unusual importance for the opening night.
