H. Berry, of this city. candidate for
State Treasurer on the Democratic

he allow the Prohibitionists to indorse
him for state Treasurer. He has re-

the Prohibitionists polled over $4,000
votes in Pennsylvania at the last

New Senator's.

The terms of thirty senators. or one third of the entire membership, expire on the 3rd of next March. A majority will succeed themselves, but there will be some important changes. Already several new men have been electd.

Niedringhaus is a young man Of A, and is chairman of the republi- can state committee. His father. with whom he is associated in the manufac- ture of tin plate, served a term in con gress some years ago.

M. Charles Bos, indicate that unless
 within the next six months the naval
 appropriations are increased by at
 least 25 per cent, an dof this there is
 a scant probability France will in the
 year 1908 lose her position as the sec
 ond naval power in the world.
 The French naval estimates for 1905
 amount to S61 100000. as against $6O.-
 OOO.0OO expended in 1904. Germany will
 during the year 1905 spend upon her navy $75, ,O00, ,OOO-which sum includes
 the annual percentage for construction
 provided so wisely by the six-year law insuring without parliamentary debate the automatic increase of naval units It is interesting to compare the SC fig ures with the American naval esti- mates for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1906, which are $144.53O,63S. In the last ten years the increase of naval expenditure of France is only 26 per cent while that of the United States for the same period is 1855 per cent, Germany 14S per cent, and Great Brit ain 8S per cent. It is moreover point ed out in the able report of NJ. Bos that, owing to the increase of wages and the adoption of the system of eight hours labor for days work-reas- ures resulting from the influence of so- cialism in the Combes cabinet-France gets less for a given sum than is the case in the German or English build ing wards. and it takes nearly twice as long to build a battleship or cruiser in France as in either of those countries. The result must be that four years hence France will drop from the posi- ton of the second naval power of the world. which she has so proudly main tained for over two centuries, and will fall back to the third or more probably the fourth rank, when measured by eff fective strength on the high seas.

France Losing Her Naval supremac,

In the mad race for naval suprem- acy, race which becomes swiftcr each year. the United States and Germany are forging to the front and France and Russia are falling behind. Mat ters beyond Russia's control have re- duced her fleet to an inconsiderable fraction of the worlds naval strength, and France is dropping to the rear because she is not making the vast financial appropriations that are wit messed in this country and Germany. Experts say that at the present rate of development France will soon be behind both Uncle Sam and the Ger man empire.

Senator Bard's Telling Speech.

The most effective speech yet made in the senate against joint statehood was delivered by Senator Bard. The dispatches had told how the California senator's remarks had been received how the full senate listened intently to his masterly argument against the proposed jointure-and how the con- viction was forced upon many senators that it would be not only deplorable mistake but a veritable outrage to unite Arizona and New Mexico as one state. But the Congressional Record, at hand yesterday, which contains Sen ator Bard's speech in full. makes it clear why the senate was so strongly impressed. The deIiverance of the jun for senator from California lays all Arizona under obligations to him. His calm, lucid arguments are unanswer- able.
 At the outset of his remarks he pointed to the fact that the bill had passed the house and had been laid before the senate without considera- tiOn in the lower house. In a member ship of nearly four hundred but three hours and a half had been afforded for debate" Under the rules no amend ment could be offered except such as were presented by the committee which reported the bill. and the meas ure was not even read to the house of representatives. The senator was clearly right in urging that it was ab- surd to assume that the bill represent ed the deliberate judgment of the house.

Bores in Real Life and in Books.

Why should a person who is bore be more interesting in book than in real life? Readers of the dreary mass of fiction turned out yearly in book form-and in the magazines fore ed to ask the question. But publishers and authors evidently think that it is only necessary to put a boresome char . acter in a book in order to make him or her interesting.
 MT. Andrew Lang is nothing if not a lover of wholesome reading, a fact which makes him an invaluable force in modern criticism. Recently he has been looking into the new novels, and against them he says. in ''Longman's' for January, "I humbly bleat out my protest" His objection to them are that they are dull or dirty, and ire quentIy are both 'They are dismally concerned with the unwholesome amours of idle, underbred people, mar ried and unmarried" He turns for comfort to MT. Anthony Hope, but finds in that clever noveIist's latest book, 'In Double Harness only disap- pointment. "To read of these dreadful sets of naughty married people, he says. makes an Englishman iH." It makes us all i'll. T can not go so far" he remarks, ''as to despise the novel of character, but I do bar the novel of bad character. idle, brainless, fulfilled. Iustful maids and matrons, with their appropriate males. smart stockholders and others who cumber the ground. There are such people, of course, but why should they be con sidered objects of interest,"" They are so considered by the writers who in vent impossible stories about them for two reasons. In the first place, the novelist who deals piquantly enough with these gross types is tOlerably cer- tain to make money. Secondly he is just as sure of the applause of certain readers and reviewers. who will talk at strength and so on.
 Leaving aside the books which deal with the immoral and appeal to the perverted imagination. NIT. Lang would find an abundance of material for his caustic pen in the books and maga- zines which are merely boresome. Un- doubtedly such books sell or they would not be published. But why do readers like them? Perhaps it is be- cause of a barbaric belief that any thing in writing print must neces- sarily be more interesting than would the same matter in actual life. That such belief is prevalent there can be no doubt.
 Everybody, for example, is familiar with the type of man in business, pro fessionaI or official life who attaches infinitely more importance to a letter than he would to the writer of the let ter in person. It is a common expe- rience to find men slaves to their cor respondence. Callers on important business have to wait while foolish let ters receive vastly more attention, in laborious replies, than would their per sonal visits.
 It is a queer, queer world, and the bore is ever with us.
