BLAMES LIQUOR LAWFOR THIS

NEW YORK, Feb. 2s.-District At
torney Jerome, speaking OF the propo-
sition to open the saloons part of Sun
day, before the Peoples Institute club.
tonight, said:
There are some honest men on the
police force. But if the people knew
the truth about the bulk of the higher
police officials they would take the
law in their own hands like the people
Of Montana and California with their
vigilance committees and annihilate
them. When you remember that the
collection of So tribute only for each
saloon in the precinct. would in. some
of the larger precincts amount to $12,-
600 year, you will have some idea of
the possibilities.
More than this. even today there
is not street on which cars run that
picl1pockets are not operating under
a distinct contract with central office
detectives. There is man now await
ing sentence in the Tombs, and even if
he is a thief, believe him, for / have
corroborated much that he told me,
and he says that the police demanded
so per cent as their part of the pro-
ceeds." --.--
Mr.. Jerome declared that the cor
ruption of the police force was largely
due to the existence of a liquor law
that was unenforceable-in the sense
that the community was against its
strict enforcement, not that the Off
cials were powerless to enforce II II
they wanted to do so. Its enforcement
he declared, meant political suicide for
the party that attempted it.
Even Roosevelt" said Jerome, with
all the direction and force that he ex-
ercised when police commissioner. was
able to bring to justice only one-fif-
tieth of l per cent of the violation OF
the law. The only practicable result
of the crusade was to put up the
charge of blaokmail from IS a week
to $40 and $40 in some instances. And
what was the moral effect OF trying to
enforce the law? The turning out of a
good administration and nothing
more"

fernai Machine

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Feb. 23.-Ad-
dressed to United States Senator Pen
rose a small internal machine was
found done up in an innocent looking
package in a private mail box in the
hallway of a building. The box con-
tanned gunpowder and liquid in a
bottle supposed to be nitro -glycerin.
On portions OF the wrapper were past
ed clippings containing the names of
different corporations. On another
wrapper was the inscription: "Presi-
dent Roosevelt, we are not in any
trust; time limited, inauguration"
1t is the opinion of Capt. Donaghy
that the Internal machine is the work
of crank. There is no clue to his
identity.

This morning Health Commissioners
Ohage will ask the police officers to
arrest the owners of three of the
largest buildings in St Paul on the
charge of violating the smoke ordf-

Warrants demanding the arrest of
these three men were sworn out yes
terday afternoon by inspectors of the
health department, and if the health
commissioner is to be taken at his
word more arrests are to follow.
Health Commissioner Ohage is tired

some definite action in the matter of
controlling the smoke nuisance in the
city the health commissioner an
nounces that he will enforce the pres-

The health commissioner declares
that he is tired of being on probation.
He insists that with the council delay
ing action he, while willing to wait for
a reasonable compromise has been held
as helpless as child, and that the
latest action of the board of aldermen
has decided his future actions.
From this time on he intends to en-

amended by the council he intends to
secure evidence and swear out war

SYMPATHY FOR RoJes7vENskv.

While Rojestvensky's subordinate Of
1icers who have reached places of
temporary safety, and members of the
Russian admiralty at home, are daily
finding new points of attack on the
unfortunate Russian commander, it is
interesting TO note the treatment he
is receiving from his captors. Togo,
the conqueror, visited Rojestvensky
in the Toxic hospital and, according
TO a dispatch, expressed his SYM
patty for the admiral's wounds, prais-
ed the desperately courageous fight Of
the Russians and expressed the the
hope that Vice Admiral ROjestvenskv
would soon be able to return to Rus
sia." Admiral Yamamoto, the Japan
csc minister of the navy, sent flowers
to Rojestvensky accompanied by the
following note: Il beg to express ny
respect for you in discharging your
duty as soldier in fighting desperate
1y for the sake of your fatherland. l
cannot refrain from sympathizing with
you in your wounded condition and
hope the accommodations of your hos
pitfalls and the ability of our naval sur
geons will cease your sufferings and
speedily restore your health
The dispatches fail to show that the
Russian emperor or any member IT
the Russian admiralty has made an eff
fort to convey to the wounded admiral
an expression of sympathy or word
of appreciation. They sent him out
on what proved to be a hopeless mis-
sion with a hastily improvised and
poorly equipped fleet "The Emperor
commanded Us on leaving the Baltic
to fight and defeat our enemy, and
We were anxious to obey his orders, >
says one of the captured Russian Of
ficers. That Rojestvensky did his Ut
most to obey orders cannot be ques-
toned. He sailed for waters where
he had every reason to expect the en-
OAAy " NC. AClS Is uOlIluS W HUI
cate that lack of courage or disloyalty
on the part of Rojestvensky contribut-
ed to the defeat. Lack of ability may
have been there, but his captors are
sufficiently magnaminous to overlook
it. They, more generous than his own
people compliment his conduct and
perhaps, the wounded admiral will
find in the sympathy and appreciation
expressed by the Japanese, solace for
the harsh treatment of his own gov
eminent.

feared any of these things: Small congregations poverty

1t all depends.
If young desires to be a preacher because he
wants to practice oratory to evade responsibility he
need fear neither small hearing lack of support

Never in the history of the pulpit has there been
greater call for preacher with message He that
satisfy human heart hunger with spiritual bread and spr
ua thirst with the water of life need not hesitate fear
to preach The crowds will flock to him. The problem of
salary will be solved And detracon and criticism will
fail.
AS for the gossip

off the darts of malice directed against him the great
geyser throws off the pebbles thrown against it.

Getting at the Facts
TNly one for Tom Lawson.

lily one for Tom Lawson.
His frenzed finance articles have limited at certain in
defensibe methods employed by the big insurance
panles of New York City. And it appears there
some fire to Lawson's smoke
One OF these companies in in the throes of read
]ustment to peopleize its policy And because of the
controversy certain charges being preferred.
1t is being alleged, for instance:
That the vice president of this company gave $780,
900 dinner that paid for out of the company's adver
Using account and that the pull of this official suf
cient to get the bill paid without going through the usual
channels of audit
And that certain henchmen of this officer privately en-
ployed by him. on the pay rolls of the company.
All this and more is charged
Whether not the allegations are true remains to be
seen. The New York insurance department is en-
gagged in investigation, the result of which will esab
sh the truth fasy of many matters being alleged
by one one faction and controverted by another
In either event the agitation started by Lawson will
suit in the public good.
the accusation made by of the factions is true
there need be great apprehension and policy holder
need fear The tremendous surplus-a surplus, by the
way that ought to divided up for the policy holdersis
large enough to withstand several 100000 dinners and
leave plenty.
It is to be hoped the serious charges of Mr.. Law
that the surplus of these big companies is being used
for purposes of speculation untrue and that should be
matter of investigation.
all Mr. Lawson says about the large assurance socie
ties is untrue they will emerge from systematic inquiry
stronger than If what he says is true the policy
holders should know and institute proceedings for rem
edy.
In either event Lawson deserves thanks
