1891, and in few years made the repu-
tation of one OF the best trial lawyers
in Philadelphia. He once declined an
election to the Common Council on the
ground that he would not permit po-
litical ward leader to dictate his course
as a Councilman. He was chosen Dis
trict Attorney by the Republican ma
chine, and signalized his term by the
prosecution of some Republican repeat
ers. Then he was elected mayor as an
honest figurehead for the machine gang.
His Office holding has not been happy, it
is said, until he made up his mind to
fight. He is a deeply religious man and
things came to a pass when he could
no longer serve the gang 1t is said
that he, with his wife and little son,
spent the whole night in prayer before
he vetoed the new gas lease. His own
statement to correspondent Of the
Toledo Sun of the motive OF his actions
is in these words.

EQUITABLE REPORT.
Superintendent of New York Insurance
Department Recommends.

Albany, n. ", June 22.- The report
of Supt. Francis Hendrick Of the state
insurance department TO Governor Hig-
gins upon his investigation of the Equit-
able Assurance society, was made public
here and in New York last night. 1t
here and in New York last night. 1t
is described in the title as 'prelimi-
nary report" and it is decidedly critical
of the management of the society, as
well as of the newt trust arrangement
for voting the stock agreed upon by
Thomas f. Ryan and the three trustees
designated by him. In the conclusion
Of his report, he says:
mo superficial measures win correct
the existing evils in this city. A cancer
cannot be cured by treating the symp-
toms. Complete naturalization, with
the elimination of the stock to be paid
for at price only commensurate with
its dividends, is in my opinion, the only
sure measure OF relief.
This report with copy Of the evil
dence taken on this investigation will
be transmitted to the attorney general
for such action thereon as he may deem
proper
~ OhO SuptSSN VI PAoPVsSu itSi7i'tiOii'
he says:
Il think it important that the next
legislature should take into considera-
tion the question of the investment of
the funds of life insurance companies
and establish a standard of investment.
As to just how far or to what extent
they should be restricted in their in
vestments, am not prepared to offer
an opinion at this time. There can be
no question, however, of the wisdom of
prohibiting the investment of life insur-
ance companies in subsidiary moneyed
and business corporations controlled by
life companies which occasion the carry
ing of large balances for the benefit of
those companies and for the stoekhold-
ers who are largely associated in the
management Of the society"

POPULATION.

Vermont is growing. 1t is the New
Vermont Of course which is increasing
the birth rate. If we have gained five
or six thousand in population during the
past five or SIX years then we have
reason to be proud. If when the next
census be taken we count 100000 souls
why not have a grand celebrationl It
Is numbers that we want to help us
make show, and to prove that the
New Vermont is on wheels and the
axles are kept we'll creased The quail
ity does not so much matter, the ma
tionality is Of little concern, just give
as the count. Essex County Herald.
In the above quip the contemporary
makes light of our modest assertion
that, barring SIocum steamboat disasters
and Iroquois theatre fires, Vermont's
population will have reached the total
Of $4,000 when the census man makes
his rounds five years from now. 1t is
easy to be seen that The Herald deplores
an increase in Vermont's population be-
cause the quality and the national
ity" are not pleasing to its particular
standard. The Herald may be right,
hut we fail to see wherein. To The
Times it appears that results attained
through the coming Of such foreigners
as have thus far seen fit to cast their
lot in the state have been very salts
factory. The development Of potential
industries, their reclaiming Of farms fall
en- into disuse through the fading away
Of the native stock and the raising
of the standard Of labor are three i'm
portant reasons.
But that is not what we wish to get
at. The point is that the protest comes
in decidedly bad taste from a section Of
the state which has gone backward in
population SO magnificently as has Essex
county. For instance, there were five
counties in Vermont which showed de-
crease in population from 1890 to 1900,
and the figures of Essex county showed
the greatest falling off. In the former
year it had 9,511; ten years later it
had s,O56, a loss Of 1855, Of fifteen
per cent. AT the same rate of decrease
there viii be, in little more than
fifty years, no Essex county to prate
about quality or nationality; there will
be nothing but a bowling wilderness,
peopled by woodchucks and well-filled
graveyards If all the fourteen coun-
ties of the state had decreased in like
proportion, Vermont would now have
less than three hundred thousand people,
instead Of the s43,641 which the most
Of US are proud to claim through the
census Of 1900. But happily they did
not.
The question is: Would The Her
aid prefer to have Essex county peopled
by men or woodchueks? Would it pre-.
fer TO hear the hum or industry, or the
drone Of inactivity2 For most people
the choice would be easily made. Let
the contemporary come in contact with
these people who are pouring their
strength into the upbuilding Of the state,
and we dare say that its opinion viii
be materially changed. Also it might
be well to read little Of Roosevelt's
race suicide opinions,

HE AND SHE.

He led her down the winding lane
And slowly meath the spreading trees
And from across the fruitful plain
Came scents of clover on the breeze
Beside him, with far-off look,
She passed where roses, wildand sweet
Were still abIoom, and in the brook
With glad abandon cooled her feet.
There where the pebbles brightly cleaned
She stood and watched him pensiyely +;
What time he gazed at her and dreamed
OF fame that his some day should be.
She gave jerk and he, somehow,
Went head first swiftly Ger the brink.
She was his fathers spotted COW
And he had led her there to drink.
