The usual denial comes from Senator
Hanna as to his being a candidate for
a presidential nomination, The wealthy
magnates, who are afraid of Roosevelt's
down right methods, would very much
like to see Hanna become president
According to a recent writer upon the
subject of Hanna and Roosevelt in
which the two men are compared, it is
the first time that money has not been
a power in Washington. President
Roosevelt absolutely does not care for
money. As consequence the mOneyed
men who dream of nothing but wealth
and it's power meet a condition Of
things they are unaccustomed to, and
which the ydislike exceedingly. But
the people are with the President and
that is a factor which even their exud-
ing dollars cannot coerce. The Hanna

The question of marriages is becom-
ing a serious one. At the present time
several couples are waiting to have
marriages solemnized, but are unable
to obtain licenses. Under any cir
cumstances, even when the tax collec-
tor qualities, it will be hard for peo-
pie away from the county seat to OBJ
tain licenses, as they will have to go
so far to get them, and in some places
over verv bad roads, The result will
be a diminution in the number of'mar-
riages until the law can be amended,
so as to grant greater facilities for OBJ
tanning licenses. There are some peo-
pie who maintain that the old agents
do not go out because the tax collector
has been appointed, but legal opinion
is dead against the proposition.

China will not be in such a bad
position, in the event of war between
Russia and Japan, but she VIII have
hard work keeping her neutrality with
"a large part of her northern possession
occupied by Russian troops. If Japan
Should prove successful the chances are
that China would break her neutrality
and throw in her fortunes with Japan.
The latter country would then become
the head of a great Asiatic league
which might extend into Central Asia,
and even to the confines of British In
dia.

It is a good idea to interest Governor
Taft in the military condition of the

thoroughly laid out before the future

The Chinese desire to stand well with
Japan and Uncle Sam commercially,
and the Imperial signature has been af-

special commercial advantages the
United States would have to protect
her interests if Russia or any other

what the Chinese statesmen have fore
seen.

THE RAILROAD BILLS.

At Wednesdays hearing before the Assembly
committee on the railroad bills I'm which the
Metropolitan company is profoundly interested
the lawyer I'm charge Of its case made one point
to which no exception need be taken. He said
that the company was deserving Of credit for
having made its demands frankly instead Of at
tempting to accomplish its object by stealthy
processes. II a bad custom had not prevailed
so long, the companys bold acknowledgment and
advocacy Of its bills would not appear worthy
OF commentator. but under the circumstances
we are quite willing to concede 10 Mr.. Cravath
the privilege Of praising the new method In
other respects. however, we cannot say that be
was at all convincing.
The company, through Mr.. Cravath, asserts
that it has no thought Of getting right of way
in Elm-st by means OF the bill which Wouh
enable II to do so, but says II is pursuing that
aim in the regular manner. We are glad or
the confession. for st will keep the opposition
alert to prevent so great an outrage; but in the
mean time il would be folly 70 show the bill In
its present form particle OF favor. The COM
pany, having. perhaps, been unfortunate In the
matter OF procuring consents, might change lts
corporate mind and regretfully determine to
make use OF the legislation which ii is now seek
ing for another purpose The company pro-
claims its willingness 10 accept amendments
which would make Elm-st safe, provided they
are its real plans? There are other streets TO
which q transfer Of existing tracks might be OF
great advantage TO the company. So long as
the public is left in the dark, the legislature
should leave the bill out in the cold
Mr. Cravath referred with emotion TO the
ascandalous conditions" resulting from multi
tude Of suits 70 recover penalties for the refusal
of transfers II the conditions are scandalous.
the company alone is responsible. II had an
excellent opportunity 10 prevent what it de-
plores But IN our opinion the institution OF
legal proceedings for the sake Of compelling the
company to DO its duty is a pleasant and en-
couraging sight II shows that the public is not
wholly at the mercy Of an Rvarlcious and I'M
scrupulous corporation. Mr.. Cravaths indul-
gence in lamentations on that score does him
no credit, professional or personal. IL is child
ish. The men who are watching these railroad
bills IN the interest Of the community are not ut
all likely 70 be deceived by that sort Of thing.
Every one Of the railroad grabs introduced 1T
the last session was exposed and defeated This
year the more respectable policy Of open nrgu-
ment has been adopted, but IL does not follow
that the present bills are intrinsically less Oh
jectionable than their predecessors. The repre-
sentatives OF twoscore civic organizations who
appeared on Wednesday TO oppose them are as
sure Of their ground they were a year ago.
and thus far we have not seen the slightest rea-
son 10 suppose that they are mistaken
