CURRENT COMMENT
THE EVER WoMANLY.

Even in these days of campaign booms and pension usurpations the newspapers would lose much interest but for the many forms of activity of the Ever Womanly.
 Hoboken teachers contribute s25O to help one of their number fight a, mean old board of education. The chief own CT of New York's most famous restau- rant, a woman. has just died. Her successor is a woman also. A colored girl is to be valedictorian in the Plain
 field. N. J., high school. The wife of a Russian officer, accused of selling military secrets to tho Japs. pleads for his life with the empress. Mrs. John- son, of New York. sr.;ashes her install ment piano with an axe rather than have it taken away. She had paid $55o on it, and perhaps got her moneys worth of satisfaction.
 The Bohemia Guides Association furnishes young ladies to show the sights of New York tc strangers; and the guide who took charge of tn ? World reporters education gives d very conservative and womanly defini- tion of Bohemia" A woman goes gunning for d lobbyist in Albany with disappointing aim. Mrs. Morey- Hobby of Coney Island, defends her house against a city marshal with a broad sword. Fifteen year old Florence Ba- ker, of Plaintield, N. J., takes Q hus- band and disappears. Women students at the Normal college make their mates the victims O. a cruel joke" by send ing their parents forged notes signed "the faculty" and complaining of poor work. Mrs. Emma Flames. mother of a famous singer. is summoned to court for maintaining a singing school which is the source of prolonged, unseemly discordant, loud, piercing and penetrat- ing noises that slay repose. In Lon don Queen Alexandra eats a nine cent luncheon with working girls. A good luncheon it is, too.
 Singly women do wonderful thing. Organized they fight Mormonlsm in Washington, plan clubhouses in New York, successfully attack child labor in New Jersey. Who does not reckon with the sex does not know what the world is doing and will do.-New York World.

I s'pose at when it rains so hard, An soaks up ev'rythin', An mary jumps an runs out quick To take the washin' in; s'pose the angels up in heav'n Is jus as nice and dry, An never know at all their rain Is droppin' froo the sky. l s'pose 'at when the sun goes down Behind the hill at night, It keeps on shining just the same, As round an hot an bright; An l sh'd think the children there, An ev'ry one in town Would be most scared to pieces When they see it comin' down.

Although the subject is one which the people have not yet discussed, it seems obvious that the time is not far off when the concern which may well be termed the tramp corporation" will ne looked upon as one of the worst evils of the business world. Irrespon- sible and interruptions men are per mitted to form companies which have no capital and these Corporations by the thousand engage in enterprises more or less shady. They go forth from New Jersey, or Arizona, Maine or South Dakota, West Virginia or Ken lucky, and in any state of the union they have a standing with the sound est company that can be found. The people cannot, or do not discriminate.
 But-how. practically, is the tramp corporation evil to be kept in bounds? 1t may be asked, Should not a state be guided by the same high sense of honor which controls the actions of the hest men and women? And if this be true, docs not a commonwealth lapse from the best moral standards when it creates a corporation which may reasonably be expected to swindle the people? These questions may be an- swered in the affirmative, and still the problem of how best to restrict the creation of new corporations remains unsolved. And sound business sense would lead Arizona or either of the states we have mentioned to say, We will only stop making tramp corpora tions when the rest of you stop also"
 But there is one practical way in which an effectual reform may be had. The supreme court of the United States has only recently decided that corporation created elsewhere is sub jeet to the laws and regulations in force in the state wherein it does busi- ness. Any state feeling itself ag- grieved can put up all the restrictions against the operations of unwelcome corporations that it sees fit.

WHEN PEACE COMES.

"There is little doubt that the present struggle. if other nations do not interfere, will be a bitter one" says General Francis Vinton Greene in the war number of "The Worlds Work but should Russia gain q really decis- i've victory. as she did over Turkey in 1878, she would seek to make Japan Q mere Russian province, filled with splendid harbors and forming a mag nificent outpost for the coast of the Orient. Should Japan gain such a victory over Russia, she would wish to drive Russia entirely away from the Pacific coast. establish herself on the mainland and put herself at the head of the far eastern races.
 Neither will be allowed to do what 1t wishes. Wars are not ended in that way in these days, but in such a way as the great nations think proper. In her last war Russia had Turkey at her mercey. but she was obliged to tear up the treaty she had made at San Stefaro and to submit to such terms as the non- -combatant nations saw fit to allow at Berlin. And in her last war Japan inflicted a signal defeat upon China and dictated the terms of peace in the treaty of Shimonoseki, which was ratified On May s, 1895. But only two days later, at the dictation of Russia, Germany and France. the Japanese em- peror signed a document in which he renounced and gave up the chief advan- tages he had gained by that treaty Similarly now, 1t is quite certain that Japan will not become a Russian prov ince, nor will there be any yellow per il under the leadership of Japan. for, no matter which side wins. the treaty of peace will be made, not by the two combatantS, but by a congress of all the great powers. including ourselves so far have unseen events carried us away from the traditions of Washing ton. The terms of that treaty will be such us the great nations think best for the interests of the whole world. and not alone of the two nations who carried out the war

The Statehood Situation.

The statehood bill drawn by the ma iority of the house committee on ter ritories having been completed. there will be no further news of conse- ouence concerning 1t until Chairman Hamilton of the committee returns from his home in Michigan and calls the bill up in the house. This. it is expected. will be about the 17th of this month. The bill will be debated in the house for two or three days ana will doubtless pass by a good major ity.
 IL will then go to the senate ana rest In the hands of the senate com mlttee on territories until the short session. next December. or at most, 1t will get no further in the senate at tnls session than a report from the com mittee and q place on the calendar. The republicans and democrats Of the senate are not divided on this policy. and no question will be raised In op- position to the programme. Chair- man Beveridge of the senate commit tee on territories has announced that under no circumstance can there be any statehood legislation this session. It would be useless. of course. for him 10 undertake to pass the bill in the senate. during the short time that will be available. as Senator Bailey and possibly other democrats have stated their intention to talk 1t to death if lt Is laid before the senate now. and the republicans are anxious for an early adjournment.
 The present status will be maintain ed. therefore. practically, until after the presidential election. So there is no occasion for anybody in Arizona to get excited over the statehood ques- ton for many months to come. Per haps 1t will never be worth while for us 10 get excited. for many things may arise to disturb the existing pro- gramme before 1t can be carried out next winter. The people of this terri tory should not lose sight of the inn portant subject. however. and there will be a general discussion of the mer- its and demerits of the bill, along with other subjects of a political nature.
 Under an arrangement between the republican leaders and a number of the democratic leaders, the bill pro vides for the admission of Oklahoma and Indian territory as one state, and New Mexico and Arizona as one state. The proposed state of Arizona will have two senators. of course, and un- der the provisions of the bill as drawn, two members of the lower house. The territories aA now bounded will consti- tute two congressional districts. so the present territory of Arizona will elect a member of congress if the merger state is created.
 We suspect that this provision is shrewd arrangement to placate the democratic politicians of this territory. And when they learn that they may send a man to congress from one of their own number, we expect to hear some of them-now so vehemently op- posed to joint misunderstanding as gently as any sucking dove Con the quiet).

Tramp Corporations and State Nor
 aIftV

The governor of New Jersey, the Hon. Franklin Murphy. is coming in for what he undoubtedly considers more than his share of criticism, be- cause of his alleged inconsistency and official immortality.
 He has called the legislature of the state together in extra session. be sentiment of the state, the bill forbid ding the slaughter of tame pigeons was smothered at the regular session" It is not considered remarkable in the east that the New Jersey executive has gone to this extraordinary length in order to suppress the so-called bar barism of Tive birds matches" That sort of sport has long been under the ban in the older states.
 What does occasion surprise is the solicitude of Gov. Murphy for the well fare of feathered pigeons, and his ap- parent unconcern for the human pigeons who are regularly plucked by New Jersey corporations. In that as- pect the fire directed against New Jerseys governor is of interest local ly. since Arizona and New Jersey are engaged in a keen competition in the business of creating corporations and turning them loose upon the public Gov. Murphy is not particularly re- sponsible for New Jerseys corporation statutes, but he is criticised because he has frequently constituted himself the champion of New Jerseys peculiar industry, and especially because he said to the late but now resurrected legislature:
 Other states are bidding sharply with New Jersey for corporation busi- ness, and if New Jersey is to retain it's business in this respect it must meet the reasonable demands of those who desire to incorporate under its laws"
 It is pointed out by the governors s critics that it is very inconsistent for him to call the legislature in extra session at great expense to the state for the sole purpose of making the shooting of tame pigeons unlawful, While on the other hand he is urging the legislature to pass laws which win increase the immoral business in which the state is chiefly busy. And it must be confessed that the bill of particulars is not fattering to the moral sense of the Jersey governor A majority of the corporations which have robbed the people during the past few years were New Jersey creations. Brought into being under and by vir- tue of New Jerseys laws, these cor porations have gone into other states and engaged in a multitude of swim dles In long list of such concerns 1t would be invidious to select names. The Republicans readers are fairly familiar with the records of many of the corporations whose operations in high finance" have strewn the coun- try with financial wrecks.

ly no part of his will and is not bind ing on her in any way. The signature to the letter was not witnessed. it is not mentioned in the will itself, and the probate court and the superior court have held that the letter is not a part of the will.
 To do MT. Bryan justice, it must be said that the attacks which have been made upon him by the widow and her attorneys and by many newspapers now leave him no alternative but to carry the case to the supreme court. He explained to the trial court. the other day:
 "The question of undue influence in this case is the only question in which I feel a personal interest. I have al- ready stated to the court below that in no case will any of this money come to me or to my family without the consent of Mrs. Bennett; so that the only question in which I am personal ly concerned is the question of undue influence"
 But we repeat, it would have been better for MT. Bryan's reputation if he had made no contest for the late MT. Ben nett's money, for the reason that the public at large will fail to take note of all the facts. The eminent Nebras- kan is being talked about from one end of the country to the other in uncom- plimentary terms, but we think in a measure unjustifiably. For example the New York World, democratic, says:
 MT. Bryan may seek what rights he pleases to assert. One mere trial in the courts is open to him. And the public is equally free to conclude, if it will, that MT. Bryan has throughout this singular transaction shown a re- grettable lack of those clements of delicacy and sensibility which are the vital parts Of honor and integrity"
 Lack of delicacy to some extent may be granted, perhaps, but nobody acquainted with MT. Bryan's character can believe the widows contention that there was undue influence exerted upon Bennett in the making of the will. It is not possible for MT. Bryan to use chicanery. Indeed. 1t would have been impossible, probably. for MT. Bryan to escape the work of drawing the will. Mir. Bennett journeyed all they way from Connecticut to Lincoln, Nebraska, ir order to have his will drawn by his friend and idol, Bryan, and nobody else.
 And Mir. Bryan's statement that he will accept no part of the money un- less Mrs. Bennett consents will go far to re-establish him in the esteem of his fellow citizens-for it is undeniable that he is highly esteemed and re- spected, personally, by men of all par ties. But had he followed the example of the late Henry George. his standing would have been impaired. A citizen of New Jersey, possessed of property worth $10.O00. became SO enamored of Georges doctrines that he left his en- tire estate to the single tax reformer, the testator's family getting nothing. And so far as the public was advised, MT. George kept the legacy.
