Witte Struggles Alone
In Task Worthy Peter

BUFFALO, y Y. Nov 16-Former
ambassador to Russia Andrew d.
White. makes the following comment on
Russian affairs;
Count Witte. who has been made
prime minister. IS undoubtedly worthy
OF the position. and OF his high reputas
ton. He has shown himself capable OF
the highest achievements In statesman
ship. not only recently in the treaty OF
Portsmouth but at various periods in
the past, in his management OF Russian
finances and IN his policy regarding the
railways OF the empire.
But the opposition seems at times
more than any statesman less than
Peter the Great can surmount.
Stands Almost Alone.
M Witte has against him the cour,
party. which. though under a cloud
just now. contains elements OF great
and permanent power. There also
stands arrayed against him the whole
body OF men at the other extreme, the
nlhllisss, anarchists, red flag socialists.
and those who wish revolution for revo-
lution's sake.
The Washington times., 1905-11-16

He has on his side. no doubt, con
siderable body of thoughtful men who
favor a moderate liberal constitutional
government. which as time goes on
should naturally become more and more
liberal. with more extended suffrage;
but unfortunately these moderate
thoughtful. far-seeing men are but a
small minority in the empire and it Is
very doubtful that they can rally to
themselves any large masses or the
peasantry.
The great danger IS of a continu-
ance of murder and robbery until "A re-
action shall set IN. This Will mean a
renewal OF the old autocracy with slight
and nlusionarY BUSINESS or a few
nominal liberties.
q am glad TO see that Witte is be-
ginning AT the foundation, for while
fighting for the very existence OF So
ciety. day by day he is perfecting a
system Of common schools which may
in time enable the great body OF the
peasantry to read their ballots.

Paying the Price in Russia.

by the Russian government on its
account with the people Of Russia.
A few days ago the naval station and
warehouses OF Kronstadt were sacri-

the chief seaport OF the Black Sea.

Staying the Suicide.

The suicide has always worn the
aspect Of final despair. The pistol
in his hand. the tell-tale vial
beside the equally tell-tale glass of
water, the knotted sheet. the newly
starched nightgown and on-turned
gas, have ali been impressionistic
details IN the picture drawn by the
public mind at the news of some
poor fellow-human's self-destruction.
But yesterdays tidings from Cleve-
land. Ohio. lets a little sunshine in.
Reason is puissant even over de-
spair. It IS possible to stay the hand
with the pistol. to choke the throat
against the carbolic. to take the
starch out of the nightgown And
Tom Johnson has done it.
The means are Johnsonesque. He
has merely organized an anti-suicide
commission. To the lay mind it
would seem that the suicide-bank-
rupt.. driven wild by domestic tur-
moil, crazed by insomnia, or weary
OF the struggle with the world
would hardly pause to think OF com
missions. whether created by Mr..
Johnson or anybody else. But the
suicide is more susceptible than he
seemed and Johnson knVw it. Though
only two days old. his commission
is already bearing fruit. ltere is the
account sent out from Cleveland:
The Rev II. r. Cooley, the secretary,
is daily answering letters from men and
women who plead for the commission s
help. One wrote that she had given IN
all hope: that, almost penniless and
without a friend. she had bought the
poison that was 70 bring her oblivion
But. happily, she bought a newspaper
at the same time and read therein that
& commission had been appointed 10
give hope TO the hopeless. and she
wrote DR.. Cooley 10 ask for hope and
help.

to find some for you." the doctor an
swered. If you are penniless, we vii

RiiS and Roosevelt
Worked Side by Side
Together They Iabored Hard for Beterment
OF Tenement House Conditions on the
East Side OF New York.

BALTIMORE. Nov Is.-Jaeob 4. RNx
the man who. many years ago, began his
career among the other half. OF New
York city. who walked It's streets hun
grv and friendiess. save for the abiding
conapa nionship OF a dog as homeless as
himself; who struggled up through pov-
erfv and distress and attained at last
a position Of great credit. IL not distinc-
ton. and the warm friendship and ae-
tive support OF President Roosevelt,
told a large audience at Madison Ave
nue. Church the story. in pictures and
words. of The Battle of the Sums.
This battle he has waged for more than
twenty years against corrupt municipal
sovernuent and the greed Of the un-
humanely selfish owners OF the death
trap tenements.
Mr.. Riis submitted ample Photographic
evidence of what he and his friends
have achieved N that battle He showed
pictures portraying the slums before
and after. as it were.
Old Mulberry Bend
He showed the one-tIrne notorious
Mulberry Bend. when 1t was the home
and hiding place OK cutthroats aud
c2sta ways. and then the new Mulberry
Bend. or rather the clean, respectable
spot dotted with parks and Fairgrounds,
that took its place. after transforming
influences had done their work.
He showed the old bad tenement
block with It's narrow. ill-smeliing al
leys, where sunshine was unknown. and
where children waHowed in wretched-
ness and sQualor. and the new tenement
houses. with rooms hlled with light and
air. where poor people can live With
comparative comfort, and where chill
dreu have chance 10 grow ideas.

LOUISIANA PLANTERS OBJECT
TO ANY ANNEXATION OF CUBA

Among a certain class of Cubans
there is a sentiment In favor of annex
alton TO the United States" said A T.
Price, OF Louisiana. at the New VIII
lard today. But the oficeholders are
opposed to it.
'-Our people In Louisiana do not take
kindly TO the proposed annexation of
Cuba. Our sugar planters have a hard
enough time as 1t is without adding TO
their burdens From what I gather, the
United States are the Sugar and Tobacco
trusts Should the question come UP in
Congress this winter 1t will certainly
add 10 the interest OF the session.

vading power as if it depended upon
the old fortress built by Peter the
Great. crippled by the men enlisted
to defend it.
Odessa is the third city in Russia.
Only the two capitals are counted be-
fore her. AS Vladivostok is the out
post in the Orient. and Kronstadt
the citadel of the Baltic, so Odessa
looks out over the Black Sea. toward
the sanguinary city Of Sebastopol,
the great Caucasus range with its
unmeasured mineral wealth, and the
Transcaucasian provinces which are
Russia's way TO Persia. There is a
great terrace there, crowned with
broad streets and open squares. and
leading down to the sea by a mas
sive and beautiful fight of steps.
Trade poured into the city until It's
lofts bulged. It was Russia's own
people who assaiied all this and with
Russian ammunition, in Russian
arms, spread deso1ation and wreck
age through its imposing thorough
fares, over beautiful parks. and along
its noble terrace.
It is the old lesson Of paying the
price. Those in power over the peo-
pie Of Russia have been sowing the
wind of illegitimate profits, disre-
gard Of natural rights. oppression tc
the last limits of theft and fraud, and
