Cambridge, Mass, June 2s.-The an

Secretary of War Taft was unani-
moustiy elected an honorary member
Of the association.
In introducing Secretary Taft, Chief

TO man who comes to us with
marked success in a political career.
the association extends a heartfelt
welcome"
secretary Taft delivered a speech on
the Philippines,
Upon the completion of the exercises
IN Sanders Theatre the members of
the association proceeded to the Har-
ward Union. where the dinner was
served.
The banquet speakers included
Richard olney. Justice Knowlton of the
Massachusetts Supreme Court: Baron
Kaneko of the japanese legation at
Washington and President Eliot Of
v
address spoke in part as follows:
'aThe old order is changing. swiftly
and vitality. and whether the change be
for good or for evil. to be temporary
or lasting, are matters to which the
American bar canot address itself too
seriously, A revolution. indeed. is in
progress none the less real that it may
not be generally recognized. only the
more important that 1t relates TO ideas
and ideals rather than to things WISH
Bile and material; only the more in
einuating and sure in its advance
that At follows legal forms and marches
silently and peacefully without beat
OF drum or drawing of sword"
Referring to Secretary Taft he said:
s'E5aving absolute mastery over the
lives and fortunes of 100000 people
he has won the general admiration and
applause by the justice and skillful-
ness of his rule and by the tact, pa
&ence and humanity of his dealings
with an alien and subject race"

IAN rule in the Philippines, Mr.. olney

can rule in the Philippines, Mr.. olney
said:
According to him (Taft) we are
rich enough and can afford 1t and
therefore 1t is our duty to sacrifice
American lives and American treasure
indefinitely and without stint for the
education and elevation of Filipinos
according to American standards. But
out of any such proposition issues an
other legal puzzle for the modern
American lawyer-to find in the ma
tional constitution any authority for
purely philanthropic enterprises-any
right in that government to turn it
self into a missionary to the benighted
tribes of islands In the south seas. sew
en- thousand miles distant from our
shores; or any power to tax the toll
ing masses of this country for the
benefit of motley groups of brown peo-
pie of the tropics between whom and
the tax payers there is absolutely no
community. either of interest or SYM
pathy.
again, international law being part
of American law, and the equality OF
nations interse without regard to size
or strength. being the very basis of all
international law, still another search
is needed to find in American law any
right in a strong nation to appropriate
the sovereignty or territory of a weak
nation. either in the name of "collec-
tive civilization or in any other name,
or on any other pretext whatsoever.
And. II the search be successful and
the doctrine vindicated that there are
superior peoples in whose interest in
ferior peoples may rightfully be sub
jected to process which would be ex-
preparation IL 1t did not lack the ele-
ment of compensation to the victims,
question: Is not a rule which is good
for nations good also for individuals,
and why may not the lives and prop
erty of weaker and inferior citizens in
any community be rightfully expro-
priated for the benefit of the stronger
and superior?
That new conceptions. or law and
of government like those just indicated
with others are rife among US to-day
is not to be denied.
1T is imperative that the lawyers
of the day should give them earnest
consideration. 1t is for them to say
whether there is a break with all our
past, which ought to be and is to be
perpetuated; whether American princi-

NOT In COMBINATION
GORMAN DENIES HE is WORKING
AGAINST PARKER.
Maryland Senator Declares That Only
Conference He Has Attended
Have Discussed Merely Or
ganiEation of Convention.

Washington, June Ex-senator Cor
man to-day made the following state
ment regarding the report that he
with National Committeeman Guffey
of Pennsylvania; Mclean of Ohio
Smith of New Jersey and others had
a conference here for the purpose OF
ascertaining how many votes could be
combined in the convention against
Judge Parker. the object being to Sc
cure more than one-third of the con-
vention in order to prevent his nominal
ton.
The persistency and regularity
with which statements of this charac-
ter have recently appeared would seem
to indicate studied desire to misrepre-
sent me. The fact is that all the con-
ferences I have attended have related
solely to the proper organization of
the convention, which 1t is the duty
of members of the national committee
to consider. So far as 1 am concerned
have not been party to any ar
rangement for effecting a combination
to obstruct the efforts of any candi-
date for the nomination. The Mary
land delegates have not yet determin-
ed the course they will pursue in re-
gard to the candidates at st. Louis and
would probably not reach any conclu-
sion until after their arrival at st.
Louis and after an opportunity to con-
fer with the delegates from other
States
las for the two-thirds rule. 1t is nee
essary where the unit rules obtain, as
in Democratic conventions, but in no
case since the adoption of the two
thirds ~Tle has any nomination been
prevented when a candidate has had a
clear and undoubted majority of the
convention and where the majority is
composed of delegates from Democratic
States. They have always controlled

Malicious Person slashes Balloon of
Santos Dumont.


Santos Dumont.
St Louis. June 2S.-(World's Fair
Some time during the night
the gas bag of Santos Dumonts air.
ship was cut and slashed in such
manner as to preclude. all possibility
of its being repaired to allow an as
cension on July 4th.
The work was apparently done with
jack-knife. There are at least twen-
ty long rips in the bag, and Professor
Carl Meyers. who has charge of the
aeronautic contests, declares to-day
that 1t will take at least two weeks to
repair the damage.
Secretary Walter B. Stevens of the
Louisiana Exposition Company, was
asked what action would be taken by
the exposition company, and he re-
piled that it was too soon after the
damage to have any definite plans
made but as soon as the fair officials
could consult proper measures would
be taken to apprehend the vandal.
When the damage was done the shed
that sheltered the gas bag was patrol
led by Jefferson guard and a special
Waterman. who was one of NJ. Du-
mont's employees. Neither saw anything
of the vandal and the damage was not
discovered until the workmen were to
The big gas bag had not yet been
taken from the crate In which 1t came
from Paris. The cover had been re-
moved by a customs inspector and the
crate was rolled into the center of the
big shed prepared for the air ship Be-
ing of an adhesive material, the bag
was hung in folds from stats nailed
near the top of crate. and in this way
was prevented from becoming solid
mass because of its own weight. There
were several folds of the bag over each
Stat and the vandal drew his knife
across these cutting from two to four
thicknesses of the material with each
slash. The work was evidently done
in haste as there were about a dozen
Stats covered with folds of the bag and
only four or five of them were cut.
When the damage was discovered a
message was sent to M. Dumont at the
Hamilton Hotel and he hurried to the
scene.
rs 1t true that they tell me-" he
asked of Professor Meyer as he emit
cred the big shed. On receiving an
Affirmative reply, NJ. Dumont climbed
on the bench beside the big crate and
examined the damaged bag.
Well" he said after a critical ex-
animation. ut is just as I told the
AetiA pCOPiCs ans paw nv SCSutC
enough"
What will you do asked a repre-
sentative of the Associated Press.
Il don't know" was the reply. Il
must first see how much damage is
done. 1t will be impossible to get a
new bag and If an ascension is made.
this one must be repaired. I can think
of no reason why any one should want
to destroy my airship."
Professor Meyer made a careful ex-
animation of the cuts and said:
Il can repair the damage, but It
probably will take two weeks and pos
sibly longer / cannot tell definitely
until the bag is taken from the crate
and spread out. have some material
which is very nearly like that used
in the construction of the damaged
bag / can conceive of no reason why
anyone should want to destroy the bag
and l believe the work was pure van
dalism with no other object in view
but the malicious destruction of prop
erty."

Gossip of the Teachers Institute.

Editor Hot Springs SrAR:-The Fall
River county institute for teachers
closed last week. We have always had
pretty good institutes, but this one has
been the best of all in some respects.
l wish to say first of all that our coun-
ty superintendent cannot be beat; last
year she did we'll, but she becomes
more efficient each year. Her words
and example are an inspiration to US
ALL Before the close of Miss Rich's
next term we teachers would ask that
the STAR use its influence to get that
portion Of the state constitution strick-
en- out which now forbids the election
of county superintendent to more
than two consecutive terms.
Several men attended this institute,
but understand that they may not
teach as they can get better pay in
other lines of work. What is the opin-
ion of the STAR upon this question?
Which is the more economical plan,
to employ a teacher worth s25 per
month, or one worth $40 per month?
Forty dollars per month would hold
some of the male teachers, and also
some of the female teachers who now

Hot Springs has been the recipient
of Edgemont days, etc. and as they are

Top Cattle Hits the $3.50 Mark.


"After steady and uninterrupted
advance of five weeks, high grade beef
values showed slight slumpy tenden-
cy on Friday, but the reaction is only
temporary, and confidence is expressed
that 81 per cwt. will be paid for hard
finished corn fed cattle within the next
two weeks" says Rappal Bros. & Co.,
of Chicago, in letter to the STAR un-
der date of June 18th, and they advise
as follows:
"The stellar feature of the weeks
trade was Wednesdays top, s6.70, which
registered new seasons record price.
The deal embraced drove of 81 head
of fancy shorthorn steers averaging
1876 lbs. which went to fill an order
for the Boston trade, which is very fas-
tidious. Bulk of beef cattle sold this
week at $3.50 to $500, and anything and
everything selling at 1915 and up was
1Oc higher than last week, sales of good,
fat, weighty beeve at s625 to $3.50 be-
ing numerous.
"That we'll finished beef cattle, which
is marketed early, will sell at high
prices admits of little doubt. Feed
lots in the corn belt are all but depict.
ed and another two weeks will proba-
bly, see dry fed cattle practically all in;
and it is the consensus of recognized
opinion that the western beef producers
that takes time by the forelock and
markets their cattle before liquidation
sets in, will revel in clover. Range cat
tie from the southwest are now being
marketed at prices high enough to re-.
pay the loans and leave the grower a
good profit, notwithstanding that they
are thrown into competition with hard
finished corn fed native steers. While
there will naturally be heavy move
ment of grass beef from the northwest
later on in the season, the talent pre-
dict that the market will rapidly absorb
it at even better prices than are now
being paid for southwestern cattle, as
there will then be scarcity of native
stock and buyers will be unable to dis
criminate as keenly as they did last
season.
"Sbeep and lamb receipts have been
normal, and trade has had a keen edge
all week. The prospects for western
mutton grows brighter week after
week.
