COMMENDS MORTON
IN COMPLIMENTARY LETTERS.
President Roosevelt Praises Former
Railroad Official, Secretary Of the
Navy and Chairman of Equitable

ItISs
Washington, June 22.-President
Roosevelt has taken occasion to ex-
press himself in most positive terms
complimentary of the integrity and
ability OF Paul Morton. former vice
president of the Atchison, Topeka
Santa Fe Railroad Company, and now
concluding his duties as secretary OF
the navy that he may assume the
craftsmanship of the board of directors
of the Equitable Life Assurance So
ciety of New York.
These expressions are contained In
two letters, one addressed to the at
torney general and the other to MIR.
Morton. The letters were made pub
lie yesterday by the administration,
together with several others, which.
taken together. show the precise point
of difference between the Department
of Justice and Messrs. Harmon and
Judson, who recently resigned as spe-
cial counsel for the government in the
rebate case involving the Santa Fe
road and the Colorado Fuel and Iron
Company.
The special counsel wished to bring
contempt proceedings against the Of
ficers of the road, which would have
included Mr.. Morton. Their position
was tndt tIe ltstinlohy auuu'SN
the Interstate Commerce Commission
established a violation of the court
order of March 25. 1902. restraining
the company from executing any
agreement to transport interstate traf'
fic at rates lower than the published
tariff of the road. This testimony.
they contended. constituted prima
facie case against the officers OF the
road and the only way to ascertain
their guilt or innocence was through
contempt proceedings.
Attorney General Moody opposed
bringing the contempt proceedings on
the ground that while the evidence
before the commission might show a
violation of the Injunction by the road.
1t contained nothing charging any om-
Ger of the company with such viola
tion. President Roosevelt took the
same view.
Both the president and the attorney
general agreed that contempt pro-
ceedings should be Instituted imper-
sonally against the corporation; IN
both the Colorado Fuel and the Inter
national Harvester case. The latter
case, the president says. stands ex-
actly on the same footing and involves
practically all of the Western roads.

Iananase students.

A British journal says that Japa-
nese students and schoolboys twenty
years ago had no appreciation OF atm
letics. They took too serious a view
of their duties to waste on games the
time that might be devoted to STUD
les. and they had to be driven by their
early English professors and teachers
into the Fairgrounds as though 10
disagreeable task. Now they take
keen interest in rowing, lawn tennis
and baseball, though cricket. with Its
long periods of enforced inactivity,
does not appeal to them. They have
acquired SO much proficiency IN the
American national game that a team
of players from the Waseda university
of Toxic recently left Japan, taking
the long voyage across the Pacific for
the purpose of trying conclusions with
the champion teams of the American
universities. We may yet see an
eight from Toxic competing at Hen
ley.

berculosis-in the Land of the Mid
night Sun. This expedition is in
charge of DR.. Frederick Sohon of
Washington, who was In the arctic
regions twice with Commander Peary.
Thirty victims of tuberculosis went
aboard the steamer Havana at Hall
fax on June 15, preparatory to a voy-
age quite without parallel in medi-
cal records. When 1t is remembered
thae the modern plague of civiliza-
tioD has spread with such alarming
rapidity within the past few years as
to have dwarfed war as life-taking
force. and that its prevalence to-day
Is greater in the United States than
insanity. not to mention other dis
eases. the Importance of this expedi-
ton can hardly be overestimated.
Not many years ago consumption
was regarded as non-infectious. Now
1t is known to be otherwise. The
once accepted theory as to Its hered-
ity has been exploded. AS matter
OF fact. remarked DR.. Sohon in dis
cussing the expedition and his hopes
of it, tuberculosis comes like a thief
in the night or as a lightning flash
from a sunny sky. 1t is no respecter
of persons, age or caste. Rich and
poor, strong and weak are alike vic
Tins of its stealthy approach.
Demonstrations recently made have
established beyond a doubt that the
fresh-air-and-sunshin cure Is almost
infallible. But under ordinary condi-
tions 1t is a slow and tedious opera
tisn, reuiring more time than the
average person has to spare in this
strenuous age. DR.. Sohon believes
that three months spent in the germ
proof regions Of the North will rout
the disease sufficiently for the victim
to throw it off completely.

of never-ceasing sunshine-every hour
in the twenty-four. Think of the cura-
tive properties stored in a continuous
sun bath of fourteen weeks! For it
is into such a polar day that the Ha-
vana will sail with her crew and thir-
ty candidates for the polar cure.
Following is an account Of the ex-
pedition and also an expert diagnosis
of the disease in its many forms and
phases, as well as the practicability
of the Greenland fjords to Its treat
nent and cure, written by DR.. Sohon.

GUS prior to our reaching the Arctic
circle"
This polar expedition as cure for
consumption is in line with the
preaching and practice of several new
sanitariums. which foster return 20
the natural life as a cure for the
great modern plague. In many OF
these all patients, except those in ad-
vanced stages of the disease, are re-
quired to be in the open air at all
daylight hours in all sorts of weather,
and the majority sleep out of doors.
Following the diet regulations at
these institutions those on board the
tuberculosis vessel Havana will be
urged to Intermediary diets, consist
ing of milk, cream and eggs, as far
as possible, or during the northward
voyage. Any one knowing the nature
of tuberculosis is aware that pure
milk is one of the essential factors to
a cure or arrest of the disease. On
the Havana large reservoirs have
been constructed for the storing of
milk, with icing facilities to keep 1t
absolutely fresh.
Ample provision also has been made
for gathering eggs. such as are edible
and as may be found in quantities
along the shores of Greenland. Sec
ond only to milk. raw eggs swallowed
after every meal constitute an invalu-
able item of diet for the consumptive.
Considering the brief time required
in the arctic regions to arrest and
rout the disease-three or four
months being an average period for
such accomplishment-the expense, 1t
is believed, will be no greater than
that required of sanitarium in
mate. Since the feasibility of the ex-
pedition has been indorsed by Lieut..
Commander Peary and Surgeon Nash
of the United States navy. who ac-
companied the Greedy relief expedi-
ton, besides several other arctic ex-
plorers, who have habited the arctic
regions in summer, 1t has scientific
Endorsements which promise well for
the success of the novel journey into
the polar sunshine.-New York Times.

MEANING OF NATURE STUDY.

The first necessity in nature study
is to become acquainted with some
locality-say with a farm, says the
National Magazine. 1t does not matter
how small, how commonplace, how
near the city-the nearer the better,
provided there are trees and water,
fences and some seclusion. If you own
cabin can be in tn middle of such a
spot, that is ideal. For there is no
make-believe when you buy a field or
piece of woods and settle down
there to stay. Nature respects you.
You have taken her into your con-
fidence. She will take you into hers,
and in the course of few seasons Gf
you will limit the size of your garden)
you will begin to discover what a
multitude of interesting things come
with the place that were not mention
ed in the deed
Owning farm, of course, is not
necessary. Sometimes ! am quite con-
vinced that for pure and lasting Joy
in nature one should possess an acre.
Once you have looked upon land of
your own, once you have trodden up
on earth that belongs to you, and all
your Sundays will be spent looking
and walking there. The man in the
Scriptures who bought a field and lost
his interest in other pleasant things
had a real case.

Are all good people against joint

OF Arizona who favor joint statehood.

Are these all who favor jointures in

toned to show that the idea of joint
ure is upheld by people regardless of
party Affiliations, and that there are
good people on the side of the joint
ure. Letters from all OF the counties
of the territory show that the idea
has strong adherents everywhere.
Why do the ants feel mad because
there are adherents to jointure? Well,
some of them have mad things com
ing their way" so long that they nat
u1ally think things should continue
to come their way.
Is 1t good policy to get mad because
some one has different opinions 70
what you hold yourself? In this
country, everybody has a right to

There is no good reason for any one
TO get mad over this question.

tice Baker, who is not hunting a red

is ex-Chief Justice Pinney, who is
hunting a federal job, and he is
against jointure.
Do the advocates of jointure feel
