BAILEY. MINORITY LEADER.
Handicapped BY Early Life and Hot
Temper, Still He Rose.

washington Cor. New York Times)
The great fight of the Fifty-ninth
Congress is 70 be on the railroad-rate
question. AS the time for the meeting
of Congress grows nearer the attitude
of the Democrats on the proposition
is being defined with increasing clear
ness. No longer is there much sign
of a disagreement of any consequence
among them. Most of them are pre-
pairing to support a radical bill for
purposes of party advantage, and
when that bill, but before the Senate
as an amendment, is beaten, they
will vote for the Administration meas
uro.
Doubtless there will be some who
do not support this programme, since
Democratic unanimity on any PROPOSE
ton is a tradition only. But this is
i'm all essentials what the Democrats
as party will do; and their leader
will be Bailey
They are going about their prep
aratons without the smallest pre-
tense of consulting German, their
nominal leader. If he opposes them
in the caucus, they will ride over him
calmly and with protestations of great
respect. He retains the shell of lead
erShip, while whatever substance there
is to it in the Senate minority goes to
Bailey.
Not only on the railroad-rate mat
ter, but on all others will Bailey be
the foremost figure on the Democratic
side. He has been forging to the front
for years, and today there is no dis
sent anywhere in the Senate from his
recognition as the strongest person.
ality and ablest man on the Demo-
cratic side.
A stronger contrast to German
could not be imagined. German lost
his grip in Maryland because his polit-
ical generalShip consisted in tricks and
was generally of the vintage of 1884.
Bailey does not play tricks and
is hotly contemptuous and intolerant
of them. He does not maneuver for
points of party advantage, and is fero-
ciously wrathful when one seeks so to
maneuver at his expense That was
why he upset an inkstand on Mr.. Bev-
eridge on a certain historic OCCASION
much to the detriment of his reputa-
ton. For Baileys weak point as d
leader is his hot temper.
Bailey is a politician of a highly
modern type-so far as he is a poll
tician at all: for you can start an
argument in Washington at any time
by calling Bailey politician. He
disdains the ordinary arts of politics.
He pulls no wires and has not the pa
tience to roll a log. If he had had
to run a machine to get into the SEN
ate as they do in some Northern
States. he would never have got oct
of Gainesville.
The Southern politicians admire and
love him. They regard him as a great
leader. In the Senate the Republi-
cans respect him very much, fear him
little and like him a great deal.
He is a growing man, too. He is

Peruna is known from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. Letters of congratulation
and commendation testifying to the
merits of Peruna as catarrh remedy
are pouring in from every state in the
Union.
DIR. Hartman is receiving multitude
of such letters daily from all classes.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti-
san, the clerk, the editor, the statesman
and the preacher-al agree that Peruna
is the catarrh remedy of the age. The
stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh
as their greatest enemy, are especially
enthusiastic in their praise and testi-
mony.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh. Ca
tarrh is well-nigh universal; almost
omnipresent. Peruna is the best safe
guard known.
A cold is the beginning of catarrh.
Pcruna not only relieves catarrh, but
prevents it. Every household should be
supplied with this great remedy for
coughs, colds and catarrh.

THE PARDONING POWER.

To the Editor: 1t can but be no.
uccd with what frequency the Gov
ernor is petitioned to commute the
sentence of some one convicted by a
jury of his peers. 1t matters not how
trivial the case nor how guilty the
person the Governor has to review the
evidence and read a petition signed by
a lot Of people who know nothing
about the case and care less
Now we think it time to call halt,
and that it would be well for the
Governor to give notice that here
after he will pay no attention to
any petition except those signing it
subscribe to ar affidavit setting
forth the fact that they are free
holders and residents of the county
in which the crime was committed,
and the accused was convicted, and
that they are acquainted with the
facts in the case and think the penal
ty excessive. A sworn juror bring in
a verdict of guilty. Yet as soon as he
is released from his oath and becomes
plain citizen he signs a petition to
undo what he did under oath. Now
which of his acts ought to be cOnsid-
cred by the GogernOr his act as a
sworn juror or his act as a plain citi-
zen? A man to be a good citizen
has unpleasant things to do some-
times, and it requires a good deal
of moral courage to refuse. to sign
petition, when brought to you by the
mother, wife, daughter or brother Of
a prisoner. We think that when a man
has been tried by jury of his peers
and convicted by the Supreme Court
he is pretty apt to be guilty, and ought
to suffer the penalty, and that it ought
to take the sworn affidavit of good and
reliable citizens for the Governor to
interfere.

1t wall be noticed that the Governor
says he has not had occasion to use
Peruna for other ailments. The reason
for this is, most other ailments begin
with cold. Using Peruna to promptly
relieve colds, he protects his family
against other ailments.

employed at the c. o. d.
"Ladely is a union engineer" said
Secretary Hotter. but none of the

I'VE could not rate the c. o. D. as
a union laundry anyway because they
cut the prices. 1t is a misstatement

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.--Histori-
cally, interest in the island of Santo
Domingo extends away back to the
first voyage of Columbus. He land
ed on the island, a few miles west of
the Dominican boundary, on Dec. 6,
1892. There he lost his flagship, the
Santa Maria, with whose timhers ne
constructed a stockade called La
Navidad. He returned to Spain, with
the news of his great discovery, leaV-
ing a garrison of 80 men. These were
slain by the Indians soon after his
departure.
In 1898 he returned and built. with
in the present limits of the republic,
the town of isabella, the first settle
ment by white men in America. The
natives called the island Haiti (moun-
famous country. Columbus named
it Espanola. which was corrupted by
the English into Hispanola. Natives
were sent as slaves to Spain and con-
demned to serVitude that caused them
to diminish rapidly in numbers. The
importation of negro slaves was be-
gun in 1902 and was attended with
disastrous results.
