eRvAn HITS SACK.

Chauncey NJ. Depew has so long
posed as a champion of national
honor and an uncompromising de-
fender of the rules of common hon
esty" that some people were doubt
less surprised when they learned that
for years MIR. Depew has been carried
upon the pay roll of the Equitable
Life Assurance society at an annual
salary of $40, 900. But now we are
told by the New York World that in
the inquiry made by the New York
state insurance department Senator
Depew admitted that the Depew I'M
provement company in which he was
interested obtained a lean from the
Equitable of $4,000 on property
which the state insurance department
valued at only $15O,OOO. Mr.. Depew
admitted that neither loan nor inter-
est had been paid and that the mort
cage had been forecIosed. While
claiming that as a member of the ex-
ecutive committee of the Equitable
he did not advise the loan, he admit
ted that he voted for it. Mr.. Depew
further said that he had made a YER
bal guaranty to save the Equitable
from loss on this loan, but he added
that the promise was mot legally
binding.''
Inquiries of this kind should not be
permitted. They amount to IAN as
sault upon the business interests of
the country" to an ''attack upon
the national honor" to an arraign-
ment of "the public faith" and to va
rious other things the exact descrip-
ton of which is not just now recalled,
but one may refresh his memory by
referring to the speeches delivered by
Mr.. Depew in 1896 and 19OO.---Com-

Notwithstanding the Nominations
from the press, the precepts and adj
monitions from the pulpit, the teach
ings from the schools, horrible muir
der seems to lurk in every suffocating
and stagnant breath of our overload
ed oxygen, and in every passing
zephyr of our purified air.

thousands of newspapers lifting the
torch that is supposed to lead to a
higher civilization; schools, colleges

other supposed elevating influences

Plain Down. Old Fashioned Stealing.
1t will, we suppose, hurt the feel
ings of Chauncey NJ. Depew to be
tackled and proclaimed thief, and
yet that is exactly what has happen
ed to him. His real estate transac-
tions with the Equitable company, of
which he has long been a director, is
denounced by all newspapers which
say, anything about it as "plain
stealing" His synical statement when
under examination that his verbal
guarantee OF the investment was not
illegally binding shows that he stole
with his eyes wide open. He may
have to make the promise good or go
to jail.---Tallahassee Capital.

Uncle John Rockefeller denies
through his attorneys the story told
by Miss Tarbell that he pinched $500
shares of Standard Oil stock from an
old friend and companion of his boy
hood. The story told in behalf of
Mr.. Rockefeller is that the aforesaid
old friend had sold his oil interests
to the Standard for $500 shares of
stock. The old friend was specializing
in iron ore projects in Michigan, in
those days and became heavily in
volved. He borrowed from Uncle John
pretty nearly half million, and was
as old friend generally are-very slow
about paying. Finally, in the pani-
cky times of 1868, he got where he
had to have some more cash or go
broke on his whole possessions. Uncle
John let him have the money and
Cancelled his notes, with big wad of
defaulted interests, and saved his
bacon. The shares afterwards ad-
vanced very greately in price, but
Uncle John did not get the benefit, as
he had sold those shares almost right
away, for he happened to need money
himself. Altogether the narrative in
it's fullness seems to indicate that the
old friend is a squealer and that the
big old magnate-who was by no
means a monopoly at that time-did
the fair thing by him.-Tama Times.

grievance against the pardoning

The board of pardons is composed of

doubt if these gentlemen ever extend
clemency except in cases where it is
justified. The milk of human kind

board of pardons should not be dried
up. We rather think that the board
sometime errs on the other side. For
instance, we think pardon should

Asc,Ear Aso mooEam BATTLES

Greek annals record that LOST 900
men were engaged at Arbela, and
that at Issus more than One-fifth of
the Persian army of SOC, 900 were
killed or captured by the soldiers of
Alexander. Similar incredible le-
gends about other battles of the an
Gent world might be cited, but all
of these may be dismissed as too I'M
certain to be fit material for compar-
ison. There are ample data from
the wars of modern times, however,
without going into the realms of ia
BILE, TO show, if the cabled estimates
were anywhere near the truth, that
nearly twice as many men faced
each other in arms along the Shakhe
Id the Hun as in the great battle of
Leipsic, in 1913, when Napoleon suf
fered a crushing defeat at the hands
of the Allies. Here 40, 900 men COM
posed the opposing forces and the
casualties are variously given as. Fl
and rs per cen If it be true that
100000 men fought at Mukden, the
percentage of housekeeping ia
pans at 1,222 and Russia's at $780,
OOO---Was about 10 per cent, or 81 per
cent. if the largest estimate of 2OO,-
600 Russians killed, wounded and
captured were correct. These esti-
mates, however, were so dispropor-
tionate---8 per cent. for the attacking
forces and 80 to Al per cent. for the
vanquished---that they must be dis
counted.
In the Napoleon wars, in Prussia's
operations against Austria and France
and in the American Civil war there
was so much concentration of con-
tending armies as has taken place in
Manchuria Of the first group, 2OO, 900
fought at Jena and Auerstadt; 26O, 900
at Bautzen; 2S9, 900 at Wagram, and
24O, 900 at Borodino. More than 4OO,-
600 men, Prusslans and Austrians,
fought at Sadowa; while in 1870, at
Gravelotte and Sedan, the opposing
armies numbe red 1896, 900 and 343, 900
respectively. In our own war in the
Cos vastly greater number of men
were under arms, but only 122, 51S
Union and Confederate soldiers fought
at Antietam, IFS, 900 at Fredericksburg,
100, 900 at Charlottesville and 1877 900
at Gettysburg. At the last-named
battle the proportion of losses was
far greater than at Mukden, but not
the aggregate; and this is the case
with others of the great battles of
history
This seems to prove the oft-repeat-
ed claim that, awful as has been the
slaughter in Manchuria, the ratio of
killed and wounded has decreased
with the improvement of modern
weapons
