al Constitution, there seems to be little
reason to fear an adverse decision
upon the rate law by the Supreme
Court, but how, is asked by many per-
sons, can this authority to regulate
commerce apply to great corporations,
which hold their charters under State
authority, although their business ex-
tends through many States, and thus
renders it difficult, if not impossible, for
a single State to curb their power?
And just here the President advanced
an opinion, in his Harrisburg speech,
which seems tenable and just. He holds,
substantially, that there cannot be a
gap between Federal and State authori-
ty; in brief, that what the State cannot
do the General Government may do,
and that these great corporations doing
business in many States, can be regu-
lated and controlled by National law,
under the provision of the constitution
giving to the United States the power

States, without trenching upon States
rights. If he be correct in this conclu-
sion and power is vested in Congress to
pass laws to that effect, some check
may soon be placed upon the rapacitv of
these Overgrown and powerful organi-
cations.
tits, of course, understood, that it is
no part of the purpose of the President
to destroy corporations and he was care
ful.to so declare in laying down the
proposition which is here stated as
briefly as possible, and which should be
kept in the public mind and urged upon
the public conscience, even. by frequent
repetition if necessary.
1t is not to be understood that the
words regulate and control in the
aforegoing article, mean to take the
management of, but simply to make
unlawful and prevent combinations or
trusts" in restraint of manufactures.

PRESIDENT R00SEVELT'S HARRIS
BURG ADDRESS.

1t is unfortunate that, ,notwithstanG-
ing the wide publicity given the utter
ances Of public men in this country,
by the daily press, they seem to be
SOON forgotted, no matter how great
their Importance may be, and their eff
feet upon the public mind is quickly
dissipated and passes away even as a
vapor which only "endureth for a little
time" A week ago the country was
ringing with the great speech made by
President Roosevelt at the dedication of
the new capitol of Pennsylvania, at
Harrisburg. Today, to judge by out
ward appearances, the public has only
languid interest in the leading subject
discussed on the occasion referred to,
and in the opinions 50 forcibly and well
expressed. blythe President. Perhaps
this IS dueEto the-fact that most of the
AmericanspeopIe are optimistic and be-
lieve that no matter what danger NAV
threaten the peace and perpetuity OF
the country, somehow and in some wav
it will be successfully met and overcome.
Some Of these dangers were pointed
out by the President in his Harrisburg
speech, and the proper method of deal
ing with them suggested. The danger
from the increasing power of great
corporations was discussed and their
control bylaw laid down as imperative.
If such danger is to be averted. Such
utterances by the President were not
singular. Most thoughtful citizens have
felt and probably expressed similar op-
inions, while at the same time bemoan-
ing the inadequacy of governmental
machinery to deal with and correct the
evils which awaken such apprehensions.
1t has been felt that the railroad rate
bill may be stretch of constitutional
authority and may not stand the test
of the courts. 1t is generally thought
that the difficulty in the way of curbing
the dangerous powers of other great
corporation lines in the limited consti-
tutional power of the General Govern
ment and the rights of the States over
such organizations. Under the power
to regulate commerce, conferred upon

EVERY REPUBLICAN, SHOULD VOTE.

Colonel Pearre should receive just as
many votes in November as though
strong candidate was pitted against
him. In fact, it will not do for Repub-
licans.to presume That their candidate
is going to win anyway and then neglect
to vote for him. No one was ever elect
ed to office on such theory and it is a
mighty dangerous one to try this fall in
the Sixth district. Colonel Pearre is an
able man. He represents the RepubI-
can party the party of Mckinley and
Roosevelt-the party cf achievement
and prosperity and no Republican who
believes in the history of his country as
written by the party in the past ten
years viii remain away from the polls

Mr.. Fike, putting off working the road
until winter. The cause is, we suppose.
to make more mud for that is all that
can be done now, but that's all right
for he can not injure the road, for it is
already so it is dangerous for a goat to
travel along it. There is one place
along the road which Mr.. Fike worked,
that he likes to buggy over, that is just
above Mr.. w. H. Thomas, where the
mud is axle deep. There, he says, a
buggy runs so delightfully."- soft and
easy. Let US. all hope he may have his

such places, but we prefer stoned roads
instead of merely dirt and mud.

BOTH ARE CONVINCED
 DATTO ALI IS DEAD
Lieutenants Now in San Francisco Saw His Body With Four
 teen Bullet Wounds.

San Francisco, May 27-Concernng the report from Manila that Datto Ali the rebel chief, is still alive, Leutenants West and Remington today made statements. Both are with the Twenty-second In fantry here and were with Captain Me- Coy in his march into Mindanao against Ali. They say that every man in Alfs stronghold was killed with the exception of Moro boy. AIS body was found in front of his house with fourteen bullet wounds.
 Dr, Davis, the army surgeon with the expedition, examined the body and pro- nounced Ali dead. The body was identified as that of the Moro chieftain by two faithful guides, one of them a half brother of Ali Sergeant Lewis A. Carr Of the Twenty-second infantry also rec ognized the body as that of Ali. Carr knew Ali we'll when the Moro was a noted gambler in 1901 and 1902 Lieutenant West says that Ali was the last Datto of royal blood and exerted powerful influence over the Moros. When it became known last fall that Ali had been killed, peace and quetness was the result, and 800 rifles were surrendered. Lieutenant West thinks the report that Ali is alive was circulated by the Sultan of Ganassi for the purpose of trying to secure the pres tige held by Ali.

NANTUCKET HEARS THE NEWS
Letters From Her Sons and Daughters
 in California.

Nantucket, with a population of less than 4O0O, has so many of her natives, mostly Forty-niners, and the children of natives in California that the fire and earthquake letters sent to relatives at home were numerous enough to fill a whole page of the Inquirer and Mirror the ancient newspaper published on the island each week. In the last Mirror there is a list of fifty Nantucketers in California who have been heard from since the disaster, and there are fifty two names under the heading, Nan tucketers Unheard From.' says the New York Sun.
 The exodus of '49 was one of the things that hurt Nantucket by taking away nearly all of her able-bodied men. They sailed around the Horn in their whaling vessels. and on the Pacific coast quit the sea for the mines.
 One of them, Capt Sylvester Hodges, an old whaling commander and ship builder, made a record on the trip around the Horn by building a small steamboat with timbers of Nantucket oak on the deck of the sailing vessel on which he made the voyage, It was ready for launching when the ship reached the Col den Gate. and 1t was in the freight and passenger service on San Francisco bay for many years.
