PACIFIC PROJECT

Governor Carter has called meet
ing for this afternoon at 3: 30 O'Clock IN
his Offices Of the joint committee from
the Merchants Association and the
Chamber Of Commerce to discuss the
proposed Pan-Paciiic exposition.
Notwithstanding the efforts of some
knockers to discredit the proposition,
there is no disposition on the part Of
those who are most Interested In II TO
let the matter drop. but II Is evident
that something Is needed besides talk
and an effort Is to be- made To nut the
proposition on u substantial footing
and get to work on II as soon as pos-
siblc.
Those who have had anything To d.
with eNpOsiliOns knows that there l.
an Immense amount of work connected
with them, and the sooner plans arc
made ana work begun, the better To-
the success OF the exposition and ~,
consular meeting which II proposed T.,

mite plans VIII he presented at The
meeting this afternoon. but the matter
will probably be more fully discusseC
and preliminary steps may be taken to

Ex-sENAToR LILO.


Joseph Ralph Burton is no longer 2
United States senator fro Kansas. His
career as sue. ceased shortly before
noon today when his resignation was
placed in the hands Of Governor Hoch.
So far as Mr.. Burton is personally
concerned it is doubtful If his resigna-
ton makes any great amount Of differ
ence at present. It Is known that he
faced expulsion from the greatest legis-
lative body in the world and the end
of his career as senator was but a mat
ter of few hours. But the record that
goes down in history for the knowledge
Of future generations will not be 50
dismal by reason Of his resignation.
The state Of Kansas is saved the stigma
of having a high official, one whom it
had honored, expelled from the great
aw-making body at Washington and
years hence Mr.. Burton himself will be
enabled to say that he voluntarily re-.
signed his seat and was not expelled
His action therefore shows wise coun-
sell Men forget and time softens
wrong-doins If Mr. Burton will set
his face toward the right and lead an
honest, upright life, ne can doubtless
do much to blot out the evil record he
has made and men will feel more kind
ly toward him.
It would doubtless have been far
better for Burton had he resigned
long ago, when he was first confront
ed with the charges OF his wrong
doing as senator. Had he done SO
the state of Kansas might have been
saved much humiliation during all Of
these months, and Mr.. Burton himself
might have escaped some of the pub
licity that has been attracted to him.
The resignation of Senator Burton
today is the last act of another po-
ntical tragedy in the fatal Lane sue
cession. The history of that success
sion is well known. With single ex-
ception no man in it's list remained in
the senate long enough to command
a high rank. Tragedy and disappoint-
ment have accompanied 1t since, its
first impulsive incumbent died by his
own hand, and today ends one of the
most dramatic Of all the careers it
has Wrecked career that began
bright with promise. but one that went
to pieces on the shoals of official dis
honor.
Joseph Ralph Burton is no longer
a public official. He is tonight a pri-
vate citizen, facing the consequences
of evil deeds. AS private citizen he
will have friends who will sympathize
with him and plead for leniency
towards him. And their number will
be greatly augmented in the future
if the object of their friendship proves
by his actions that he is repentant
and determined to lead an honest and
an honorable life hereafter. That is
the true test.

sfories oil Dean shaIer.

I.angdon warmers appreciation of
the late Dean Shaler of Harvard, In
the June Worlds Work contains some
characteristic anecdotes of the lament
ed teacher who was a Tnany-sided, IN
forgettable man. He says: When
Darwin first propounded the theory Of
evolution, he eagerly grasped the truth,
and championed it even against the
teachings of his master Agassiz, whom
he greatly revered. A young man OF
the new school of scientists thought to
trick him into an Inconsistency, and
pointed out that evolution must settle
the beliefs of man who accepted
Christianity. Professor Shaler turned
to him and said:
II believe in Christianity, and 7 be-
lieve in this evolution Then he
quoted from the book Of Job, Touch
ing the Almighty, we can not md him
out"
The Cambridge hospital. the college
infirmary and even the police court,
were subject to frequent and sudden
visits from him. If one OF his boys
was in trouble for breaking lamps or
mocking at the majesty of the law,
Dean Shaler would very respectfully
ask leave from the judge to speak, and
then proceed to sum up the case, de-
liver Judgment and discharge the prts-
oner, all by virtue OF the authority IN
him invested as father and friend TO
every one present. the judge and the
police sergeant included.
In the hospital he would pull Up
beside a bed, feel pulse, diagnose the
case, tell the boy that he heard good
reports Of his work and then fall into
violent dispute with the doctor on the
effects Of anti-toxine on diphtheria.
As dean OF the scientific school no
freshman chafed more at the rules
than he. He wanted to put up the
Office shutters occasionally that he
might be able to go and have a look
at the river terraces of the Ohio val
ley or drop down to Washington and
talk national politics.
A fine day in the spring OF the year
would set him literally skipping for
joy. He was a tireless walker. It was
fine sight to watch him up the road
waving his stick as he emphasized an
argument with some friend. He liter
ally talked miles with his companions.

language round his head and never felt
