PROPOSED TO A SENATOR.
Lenely Widow Makes Plea for Posi-.
tion Of Sacred Trust In
Frank Manner.

One western senator, whose name was
mentioned In a recent list of eligible
widowers and bachelors of the senate,
has received an application from the
state of Kansas. The lady puts the mar
ital proposition in a very frank manner,
all of which she probably justihes be-
cause t.is is leap year, says a Washington
exchange. She writes: :
Dear Senator-I read you are one of
the widowers OF The ser ate who would
more than likely be the one who would
be 1nexc 20 get married
"Now, / write you this to ask you, If
you are not engaged to any lady, if you
" ould' consider myself as a candidate for
that sacred trust. / am a widow, IS years
old, anu Should like good and loving
husband, one / could love and trust. ]
find life too lonesome to live without a
good man.
you may think this very impertinent
in me to write you. but / assure you / am
no adventures, only one who is so lonely,
and there are no eligible men in this
town.

swer; then I will tell you more of myself
and who l am
The senator's response to this tender
missiye was written by his secretary, who
is an unfeeling man and fully capable of
slamming the door in the face of hope.

UNCLE SAM IS BOSS.
Supreme Court Delivers Knockout
Blow to Railroad Merger.
The Northern Securities Company Held 10
Be Monopoly Whose Purpose Was to
Destroy Competition and Re-
strain Trade.

Washington, March 15.-The opinion
Of the supreme court of the United
States in the case of the Northern Sc
eurities company VS.. the United States,
Involving the merger of the Northern
Pacific and the Great Northern COM
panieS, was handed down Monday and
vas in favor of the government The
opinion OF the circuit court for the di-
vision of Minnesota was affirmed. The
effect is to sustain the contention that
the Sherman antitrust law applies to
railroad combinations Of the character
In question.
Justice Harlan said that in the
merger of the two roads the stock
holders disappeared and reappeared in
the Securities company, the two thus
becoming practically consolidated in
q holding company, the principal object
being to prevent competitor. No
scheme or device could certainly more
effectively come within the prohibit
ton of the antitrust law and it is
within the meaning of the act of a
trust"
Justice Harlan said that in this day
there should be no doubt of the COM
plete power of congress to control in
terstate commerce and all appropriate
means might be restored for that pur-
pose. All the prior test cases were
In support of that contention. Whether
tree and unrestricted competition was
wise, he said, was an economic ques-
ton which the court need not concern
itself the question was that of stat
1tory law.
He asserted the power of congress
over Interstate commerce to be as
complete as the power of state over
domestic commerce. Coming to the
plea of the railroads that the antitrust
laws should be declared unconstitu-
tional, he said that the court could not
see its way to that end. If he went
on, 1.-The Securities company's conten-
lions are sound why may not all the
railroads Of the United States enter
into a combination and by the device
OF a holding corporation control rates
throughout the country In defiance of
congress?"
Justice Brewer concurred in affirm
ing the merger decision, but for differ
ent reasons than that of the majority.
The decision was concurred in by JUS
Gces Brown. Brewer. McKenna, and
Day, while the chief justice and JUS
tees White, Peckham and Holmes dis
scented. =
President Roosevelt received the
news of the supreme courts decision
in the Northern Securities case from
the Associated press. He expressed
his satisfaction that the court had sus-
tanned the contentious of the govern
ment. Later he expressed his personal
congratulations to the attorney gen.
eral.

mo SERVICE PENSION.
Bib to Put Ali Veterans on the Rolls
Will Not Pass.
Instead. the President VIII Urge That the
Law Of 500 Be Construed Literally
and Tec:lnicaIities VIII Be W aived
Far Possible.

Washington, March 14.-There will
be no pension legislation of general
character at the present session of con-
gress. This is presuming that the
wishes Of the president and the re-
publican leaders in both houses can be
observed. Efforts will be made during
the coming month to force forward
pension legislation in the shape OF a
general service pension bill which
would place every man who fought for
the union during the civil war on the
pension rolls. This would probably meet
with success if it was allowed to reach
the floor of the two houses, but the
present plans of leaders do not contem-
plate it reaching that stage.
To meet the demands of the Grand
Army and the different veterans as
sociations, 1t is the intention to liberal
TIE the administering of existing pen
sion laws. This means that the presi-
dent will, by executive order, make it
clear to the commissioner of pensions
that he will be expected to construe
the law of 1880 in the most liberal
way possible. In the past that law haS
been so administered at the pension
bureau that unless it could be shown
that disabilities were suffered while
in action there was no hope for a PEN
sion. All sorts Of technical require
ments had the effect of keeping SOL
diers out of pensions.
Now, instead of adding from $780,
eOe, 900 to $50 ,OGO, geo to the annual PEN
sion expenditures, with provision for
continuing the roll through the sue
eeeding generation of widows and chill
dren, it is the desire and intention Of
The administration to have every man
who wore the blue Of the federal troops
placed on the pension rolls.
