Why Mccall Must Go.

The New York Press gives six rea-
sons why Mccall must go. They are
based upon. McCall's own confessions:
First-That false statements were
made, which is crime.
Second That money was paid to pre-
vent unfavorable legislation, which is
bribery.
Third That money of policyholders
was paid to get new policyholders; con-
version of funds.
Fourth-That company money was
paid to political committees; embezzle-
ment.
Fifth-Bonds were sold one day and
bought back the next to deceive the
insurance department; fraud.
Sixth-That accounts of the New
York Life were Cooked; forgery.
Bribery, conversion, embezzlement,
fraud that is a pretty large record for
one man to live down at McCall's time
of life. The Press believes his case

Japanese Woman the Autccrat OF Her

Own Household.
The notion that the Japanese Wo-
man is a meek and slayish creature,
little better than a servant in her
household, is altogether a mistaken
one. On the contrary, she is adj
dressed as "Okusama,' the honorable
lady of the house. and is treated
with the greatest respect and con-
sideration by her husband and her
family. She is the mentor, the auto
crat, and idol of the home. In domes-
tic affairs she has full control. Her
duties are onerous, but never repug-
nant to her. They consist OF man
aging the household, practicing econ
omy, making her home pleasant, both
in appearance and by her cheerful
ness of disposition, and the education
and instruction of her children, Tor
even after the children have entered
school they are still under her tute-
lage. A japanese house is the acme
Of purity. To western eye the as
pect of the interior of a Japanese
house may at first seem bare ana par
rem. In truth, the Japanese abhor de-
coration of any kind, and consider IL
not only inartistic, but extremely
vulgar.-Montreal Herald.

New York Wants to TRY.

New York people are, or think they
are, going to put in an exposition to be
ready in 1903, to celebrate the discovery
of the Hudson river. That is beauti-
fuI river, and it's discovery" was
something OF an event, although if
Hendrix Hudson had not found it then
somebody else would have dorae it later.
If he had planted the river where he
found it, and where it has remained
ever since, an exposition, even per-
rnanent exposition as the plans call for,
to celebrate it would be something in
she form of Acknowledgement Of a
great service to mankind.
This worlds fair of 1909 is to be per-
manent, the ineorporators say, in the
expectation that what money is lost
the first year will be made up later.
The plan may work but it probably will
not. I'm exposition to be successful
must have something more than the
buildings and the midway, and the
other CONCESSIONS, and the exhibits. It
must have the people to pay for going
III to see; and after the first year there
will probably not be enough people
going in to see to pay the attendants
salaries: and instead Of paying debts
the association would be more likely
30 run further into debt each year.
And besides all that, or those, there
is no bowling demand for another

The Mothers RELIGION.

Often our children fail to respect
our religion because we do not fill
our highest capacity. We allow some
sudden passion, some overwhelming
care to cause us to lose our self-con-
troll and drag us down to. the lower
levels of life. Our children measure
us by the assiduity with which we
follow and practice our beliefs and
the eagerness and hope under which
we strive to make them grow Of
what value is our religion if it does
not smooth the temper and add cheer
and comfort to our homes; if it does
not put more justice, sweetness and
love into human life?-Montreal Her.

Tramp Had Humor.

At the sidewalk of one Of the ferry
houses in New York stood police ve'
hicle, backed against the curb await
ing it's load. Walking leisurely in the
center of the pushing, racing mob
from a landing ferry boat was tramp,
all rags but placid of manner. At his
side walked a bluecoat, who led him
to the waiting patrol wagon. AS the
tramp was about to enter he bethought
himself and standing on the wagon
steps he leaned far out to one side,
and to the driver he called in the
drawing voice of a bored boulevar-
der: Home, James!'

Things About Newspapers.

Things ABOUT IN GWSpHpC1S.
Many strong things have been said
about newspapers.
Bryant said:
1.-The press is good or evil, according
to the character of those who direct 1t.
1t is mill that grinds all that is put
into it's hopper. Fill the hopper with
poisoned grain, and it will grind it to
meal, but there is death in the bread
James Parton said:
''The newspaper press is the people S
university. Half the readers in Christ
endom read little else. .
Jefferson said:
1.-THE basis of our government being
the opinion OF the people, the very first
object should be to keep that right; and
were it left to me to decide whether we
should have a government without news
papers, or newspapers without a gov
eminent, I should not hesitate mo-
ment to prefer the latter
Cardinal Gibbons recently said:
1.-The dread of exposure in the public
press keeps many a man sticking close
to the path of rectitude who otherwise
would stray off into the byways of graft.
''The bright spot is the fact that the
degradation is made known. Corrup-
ton cannot exist nowadays without be-
ing discovered after awhile. The great
er the evil, the greater the possibility
of remedy. And that possibility of
remedy has now become such an assur-
ed fact that it counterbalances, almost,
the evil which the present condition of
money madness Creates
But these people were not referring
TO the milk and water sort of papers
that tremble at the sight Of their
shadows, nor the others who echo af-
ter the crowd shouts but to those that
make events and create history.

WORDS Chanaed in Significance.

"silly" and holiday adjec-
tives-are used Of this present season.
There is a similarity in the history Of
the two words. Just as "holyday" has
lost it's one-time ecclesiastical signifi-
canoe, so has silly" lost the sense of
the old English "saelig.' blessed or
holy. This harmless silly babe, .
sung an early poet Of the Christ Him
self. Through that meaning Of harm
1essaess came the degradation Of the
word. If man were harmless he
must be stupid, like the silly sheep"
whom poets thus addressed, meaning
no reproach. but rather speaking il
terms Of enGearment.

GOLDFISH HAD CHARMED LIFE.
Rescued from Sportive Cat, 1t Had
Suffered ne Harm.


Suffered ne Harm.
An Englishman writes to a London
newspaper: Il have had for two years
a goldfish which had survived the oc-
casional accidents of defective water
supply and the too intimate compan-
ionship of playful kittens. Yesterday
| missed her from her accustomed
place in the crystal bowl, and, panic
stricken, searched the neighborhood in
vain. Even the garden, unlikely spot,
was desperately explored. Returning,
/ saw to my horror, in a corner OF the
..ouse remote from the goldfish room,
the usually wcll-behaved cat toying
with the escaped fish. Rescue was the
work of a moment To my astonish-
ment, on dropping the fish back into
the bowl, she tapped her inns,
breathed heavily and swan about with
her usual sangfroid.

Stand-Patters Running.

Stand Patters Running.
The stand-patters, who are the stall
warts on national scale, are on the
run. as the following news item indl-
Gates:
Washington, D. c., Oct. 8. Surprls-
ed and swearingly sour are the stand
patters over the declaration of Massa-
chusetts republican state convention IN
favor of tariff revision by the fifty
ninth congress.
Representative John Dalzell, who
gave out strong pro-patter program
the other day, could hardly believe his
eyes when he read Senator Lodges de-
claration that now is the time to change
existing schedules. Lodge has been
regarded as belonging to radical stand
pat element, and his conversion now to
tariff revision is the most significant
event that has occurred since Roosevelt
caught the dove of peace at Oyster
Bay.
Lodges speech is regarded as fore
shadowing the president position. 1t
is also regarded as another instance OF
the wise statesman giving ear to the
voice of the people Tariff revision by
the republican party is fast coming for
ward and those republican members Of
the Fifty-seventh and Fifty-eighth con-
crosses who had nerve to oppose the
Payne-Dalzell program can take cour-
age. Whether or not the president will
be able to have tariff revision report
ed from the ways and means committee
this coming session, the gage of battle
is laid down, and must be taken up by
the stand patters.
1t is the old story Of the bumptious
politician trying to run counter to the
peoples wishes. 1t cannot be done
with impunity and for any length of
time. 1t has been clear to the News
all along that the masses Of the peo-
pie, and the judgment of the better
politicians called for a revision of the
tariff. And what the people want
they are entitled to under our ideas
of government. The politicians who
think that they have machine strong
enough to withstand the demands OF
the people are destined to find them
selves badly sunk in the mire. We
shall hear from more Of the great
states soon and we shall find the Roose-
welt policy endorsed. In the meantime
let the other fellow kick the stone wal
if he wants to.
