Speaking of Morton. reminds US that President
Roosevelt seems to have gone little too far IN
his efforts to shield Morton from prosecution N
the Santa Fe rebate cases. And again in tho
Loomis-Bowen case Mr.. Roosevelt showed that his
personal friendship for a man in whom he bp
lieves, may warp his Judgment. Bowen was prob
ably rather pernicious in his activity and ought
to have investigated fully SO as to avoid exagger
alton in his charges; but there is enough to show
that Loomis abused his trust. To us it looks as
if Bowen's only ofense was indiscretion, excess
of zeal for the purity of the servce-a much
smaller sin than that of Loomis.

=, national politics. He had had unique
carear Rorn in Indiana in 1888, and graduating
at the age of 20. he soon had the good for
time to study law under Abraham Lincoln. But
the law. naturally enough, was subordinated to
politics in the Lincoln Office at that time, and
Hay, taking as readily to politics to Blackstone
became Lincoln's aid and companion. From 1851
to 1866 he was assistant secretary to the great
War President Part of the time diplomat part
of the time journalist, and ten years at work with
Nicolay on the ten volume 'Life OF Lincoln.
Hay spent the next thirty two years until he be-
came ambassador to England in 1897. In 1898 he
became McKinley's Secretary of State; and Gin
seven years he has raised the State Department
from a condition of relative provincialism to
commanding position among the chancellerles OF
the world" It was John Hays influence more
than anything else which prevented the Powers
from dividing UP China among themselves after
the Boxer invasion
Modest, cultured, honorable an American gen
tleman, it is enough to say of him as he said of
Jim Bludsoe that without ostentation and with
out deviation
"He seen his duty dead sure thing

A Personal "Reminiscences
The writer heard Mr.. Hay speak on two occa-
sions. The first was in the Senate Chamber, Feb
ruary o. 1902, when he read the memorial address
on Mckinley before the most distinguished
dience which had assembled in America since
Blaines oration on Garfield twenty years before
Mr.. Hays address lacke the warmth and beauty of
Blaines, which read even to-day with
out emotion; but it was a scholarly, judicial and
broad-minded review of McKinley's career. Union
veteran, ardent Republican. closest friend of Lin
coin, we remember especially Mr.. Hays tributes
to the Confederate soldier and his reference, not
to the Union and Confederate forces, but to "our
two magnificent armies," the glory of each be-
longing now to every American citizen.
Again at st. Louis last year we heard Mr. Hay
in address before the Worlds Press Parlia-
ment. Speaking of American prestige and our
duty toward other nations, he summed up his doc
trine in one brilliant, epigrammatic sentence
which have never forgotten "The highest
victory of great power is self-restraint" In all
his diplomatic relations, this was the substitute
he brought for that more ancient and more popu-
lar creed of diplomats:
"Let him take who has the power
And let him keep who can"
Mr.. Hays successor is ex-Secretary of War
Elihu Root, of the ablest and worthiest of the
men who have figured in the Mckinley Roosevelt
administrations. Mr. Root leaves a 100000 law
practice, while his salary as Secretary of State
will be only $S,OOO

Three North Carolina Lawsuits.
'FWhat did you say about the Bill Jones lynch
ing?' asked little committee, addressing dusky
preacher down in South Carolina some time ago
for there had been rumors of incendiary talk.
"I said-I said," replied the evangelist imme-
diately taking in the situation, Il said that |
thought Mistuh Jones got off toPable light"
A similar opinion seems to prevail with regard
to Mr. Thomas w Dewey, charged with stealing
$4,000 from the Bank of New Bern. Found
guilty, the judge sentenced him to six years in
prison, but he has appealed. And the lawyers will
probably manage to keep it in the courts for
long time.
A fine example of the possibilities for such work
is afforded by the GattisKilgo case which has now
been going from one judge to another for seven
years. In Raleigh last month the Superior Court
judge ordered it dismissed the ground that
there was no evidence of malice, but another ap-
peal-the third-to the Supreme Court was taken
In this connection it is good to see that two men
who travelled through the county to "work up
sentiment" for one of the parties have been sent
to jail. This scheme of tampering with justice
has gone far enough in more than county,
and the Rogers-Sorrell imprisonment ought to
teach salutary lesson-much as ones sympathy
may go out to these old men who seem not to have
understood the seriousness Of their offence.

VENGEANCE Is MINE"

1t was dark long before Margaret
and Stoneman reached Piedmont. A
mile out of town a horse neighed in
the woods. and, tired as she was, Queen
threw her head high and answered the
call.
The old man did not notice 1t, but
Margaret knew a squadron of white
and scarlet horsemen stood in those
woods. and her heart gave a bound Of
joy.
AS they passed the Presbyterian
church. she saw through the open win
dow her father standing at his Elders
seat leading in prayer. They were
holding a watch service, asking God for
victory in the eventful struggle Of the
day.
Margaret attempted to drive straight
to the Jail. and a sentinel stopped
them.

mander of these troops" said the old
man, with authority.

and every servant were gone.

hurried to Stoneman. saluted. and
said:

the sudden fury of 'madman, clutch

"go-go! Follow them with a swift
messenger and stop them! It's mis-

The old man seized her arm, and

the girls lips

whispered.

A RIDE For A LIFE.

When Ben Cameron failed to find
either Elsie or her father at home, he
hurried to the hotel, walking under the
shadows Of the trees to avoid recog-
milton, though his resemblance to Phil
would have enabled him to pass In his
hat and coat unchallenged by any save
the keenest observers.
He found his mothers bedroom door
ajar and saw Elsie within sobbing In
her arms. He paused, watched and
listened
Never had he seen his mother so
beautiful her face calm, Intelligent ana
vital, crowned with halo Of gray. She
stood. flushed and dignified, softly
smoothing the golden hair of the sob
bing girl whom she had learned to
love as her daughter. Her whole being
reflected the years Of homage she had
inspired in husband, children, and
neighbors. What a woman! She had
made war inevitable, fought it to the

THE THIEF WEAKENED.-In Calcut-
ia a box containing money and valua-
BILE papers was stolen from a large
business establishment. After the po-
lice had failed to trace the thief a
native wise man, Torini Prasad Jyo-
tishi, was called in. He ordered an as
sembly of the whole establishment
poems, bearers, durwans, table serv-
ants, coachmen, syces and what not.
and began to harangue them concern
ing the unity and majesty of the AL
mighty. Then he entered upon the
ritual of his craft, in which the regis
tration of names, the washing OF
hands. breathing on little squares OF
paper, distribution Of sacred rice and
muttering of prayers played their part.
A new earthenware vessel received the
names, with some red powder, and the
vessel was finally covered and sealed,
the awestruck audience being inform
ed, with further reminders Of divine
omniscence and omnipotence, that un-
less the box was discovered the name
of the thief. inscribed in red, would be
found within the earthen vessel when
the seal should be broken eight days
later. This was on Tuesday evening.
On Wednesday morning the box was
found, rified Of notes and gold, but
with the valuable papers intact, but
the thief Is still at large.
