There are men who have never
been detected in wrong doing whose
performances are nevertheless SO
hostile to the public welfare or SO
acceptable to self-seekers that their
honesty is impugned and their pa
triotism discounted. Any prosecu-

is nothing in the whole catalogue Of
crimes SO difficult to trace as politi-
cal corruption, nothing SO difficult
to fix "a bribery. The public should
not wait for proofs. The voter.should
not wait for evidence. 1t is not on
ly essential that public men have
their dishonesty improved, but that
they be men of such proved honesty

The Highest Duty of Citizens.

One of the most important duties
of citizens of popular representa-

This duty, expressed in its brief

all public elections. Citizens who
habitually neglect or refuse to vote
do not deserve To be trusted with

ment of his policy:
The first object with which I have tax

outlined In the czar's manifesto Of Dec.
Is Personally, I strongly approve those
reforms and will carry them out scru-
pulOusiy.
approve also Of the participation OF
popular deputies in legislation, but with
the condition that the autocracy, the fun .
damental condition Of Russia. Is pre-
served. I do not think this should take
the form of a zemsky sober. All talk
about summoning a sober is a newspaper
1hantasy.
In addition, strongly favor an extern
sion of the Zemstvo local self govern
ment to the provinces. as at present ad-
ministered, but this must be effected in
consequence with local conditions.
The causes of the present disorders are
two
The first is the war. This is the chief
cause.
The second Is the serious mistakes and
i1activities Of the government, which
sanctioned sudden change from the
rigorous rule of Won Plehve to the un-
duly mild system Of Prince Minsky.
1 would not like to prophesy that the
disorders will soon cease. I expect III
energetic fight.

will be to tranquilize the agitated minds
Of society and reform the administrative

REVOLT Is WIDESPREAD
Peasants Pillage and Burn-Arrests

st. Petersburg, March 13.-Revolt is
already widespread in the provinces
of Oreland Kursk, where the agitation
began openly a fortnight ago, since
which time it has been daily increas-
ing in magnitude. -. 49,. &c..
The districts of Dmitrieff and Seosk
are pillaged nightly by large masses
of peasantry. The granaries are plumb
cred and state buildings ransacked and
forests cut down. More than dozen
leading estates have been totally devas-
tated. -rs
The magnates are panic stricken and
have telegraphed to M. Bouligine, min
lister Of the interior, for more troops,
but he has been able to send only a
few companies, showing how desperate,
from the authorities point of view, is
the internal situation in Russia.
The explosion in the Hotel Bristol
Saturday morning has been followed by
many arrests, both in St. Petersburg
and in the Baltic provinces. The papers
found in the room included numerous
revolutionary papers and pamphlets,
drawings of internal machines and
other evidence completely establishing
the connection of Mccullough with the

cided to order the schools to reopen

There is a whisper among foreign
representatives here that while the

"He who fights and runs away may
live to fight another day. This is said
to be the policy now being urged upon
the car, who really wants peace, but
further loss of prestige for himself and
for the nation.
Diplomats here give this whisper
some credence. They look for a perio6
of time, probably months and possibly
years, during which Japan and Russia
will ostensibly be at war, but really
without serious hostilities. This solu

Pittsfeld, Mass, March 13.-By a
strange freak Of nature Henry Wo1cott
Of Cheshire has lost his sight during

and penetrates into the darkest gloom
without difficulty. Mr.. Wolcott is So
years old, and is descendant of a
prominent Berkshire family. He is
known in the neighborhood as the
human owl.
ordinary sight. He was an accom-
plished talker and no social entertain
ment was considered complete without
him. He went west, where he married.
His wife died soon after their marriage
and it is said that because Of his in
tense grief and the tears shed over her
grave, the strange malady came upon
him.
Light became painful and at last re-
pugnant to him. He has grown into
the habit Of sallying forth only after
sight left him that he is unable to dis.
Germ faces or localities by day. He
spends his time almost alone, doing his
own cooking and household work, sleep
ing by day and living in a darkened
house.
Wolcott believes himself "moon
struck, a superstition deeply embed
ded in New England folk lore. Moon
light nights afford him the greatest
pleasure and he revels in the sole light
of it's beams.
Some years ago another victim of day
blindness lived in Hancock. He was {
civil war veteran named Patrick
Dwyer. He claimed that while OF

deck under a very bright moon AMI
from that time his sight was impaired
and he found that he could work only

Objective Point.

Philadelphia, March ia formid-
able insurrectionary movement aimed
against the Castro regime in Venezue-
la, has been uncovered in this city by
agents of the Venezuelan government,
and so alarming is the nature and
strength of the evolutionary plot that
a formal protest has been sent to Pres
ident Roosevelt by F. Salcedo Ochoa,
the Venezuelan consul here.
Senior Ochoa's complaint is based on
the discoveries Of Venezuelan secret po-
lice who have been keeping a sharp
watch on revolutionists now living in
this city.
Steamer Is Ready.
The Vaccinations against Castro, &C
cording to evidence upturned by the
detectives, have reached climax, and
unless the plot is overthroWn, a steam
or, under. surveillance, will soon leave
this port on secret mission, which is
said to be no less than an armed move
against the South american president
and his government. L
It is known that the vessel has been
chartered iii such way as to allay sus-
picion, but the Venezuelan secret agents
profess to have learned that she will
load with munitions of war sufficient to
equip several thousand men for a
lengthy campaign, in addition to guns
and stores for Transforming her into a
heavily armed gunboat.
Rush Gunboat.
The Venezuelan government views
the situation with such trepidation that
a rush order, it is said, has been dis.
patched to the Cramps for speedy com
pletion of repairs to the Venezuelan
gunboat Restaurador, now being over.
hauled at the Cramps shipyard.
Castro is said to be dubious Of halt
ing the flibustering expedition by fed

In event Of such failure, it is the
aim to circumvent the insurrectionists

until such time as she can be searched
