which had been in Office for little over

Robert Hunter, author Of Poverty"
Young Patterson was himself a guest,
and with him We're several we'll known
Socialist writers and speakers, includ-
ing IL. Gaylord Wiltshire, the million
aire editor of Wilshire's Magazine,
Leonard Abbott Of Current Literature,
Morris Hilquitt, Victor S. Berger and
Professor Franklin H Giddings of
Columbia. Besides these there were
present Ernest Crosby, the single tax
ar; Arthur Brisbane, representing the
Hearst newspapers; George Fred Will
liams, the Bryan Democrat; David
Graham Phillips, Ray Stannard Baker
Everett Colby, John Brisben Walker
E. j. Ridgeway and the various mem
bers of the Stokes family The dis
cussion was mostly informal, but the
hope was expressed that some definite
from this interchange of views J. c.
Phelps Stokes said that the character
ization of the gathering as socialistic
was entirely wrong and that only a
minority of the guests were of that
political faith. In giving his impress
sion Of the meeting Leonard D. Abbott
said, "There are a lot Of men who are
toying with Socialism; but, not having
fought the thing out with themselves,
do not care to stand up and be count
ed" He predicts that five, years from
now there will be a procession of
selves Socialists just like young Pat
terson when they discover that there
is no middle way. J. G. Phelps Stokes
said he had a profound belief in the
rights Of property and thought it
would be misfortune and wrong for
the state to take over the industries of
the country.

Mayor Johnson of Cleveland has been

Pennsy Mining Quiz Vetoed.
The resolution passed by the recent
reform legislature of Pennsylvania di-
recting an inquiry into the coal carry
ing business of the Pennsylvania rail
road and other anthracite roads has
been vetoed by Governor Pennypacker
On the ground that it was not germane
to the call Of the extra session. He
also vetoed the resolution asking that
the session be reconvened to enact
two cent passenger rate for the rail
roads and to enable trolley lines to
carry freight These are expected to
be the live issues Of the next campaign.

Kansas Loses Oil Trust Fight.
The supreme court of Kansas dis
missed the suit of the state Of Kansas
against the Standard Oil company for
lack of evidence on the part of the
plaintiff This ends the movement
against the alleged Oil monopoly which
was begun in Kansas about year
ago
Sugar Trust Rebate Case.
Upon the complaint of W. r. Hearst
citing a system Of rebates granted by
the railroads to Lowell M. Palmer as
traffic manager Of the American Sugar
Refining company at New York, Attor-
ney General Moody has undertaken a
general prosecution Of railroad and in
dustrial corporal tons. Every trunk line
leading out of New York is to be made
ready witnesses have been subpoenaed
and examined by the grand jury. It
is also charged that the anti-pooling
law has been violated by an agreement
among the railroads to divide the
freight shipped by the sugar trust.
Drainage Canal Decision.
After innumerable delays the su
preme court of the United States has
rendered it's decision against the de-
mand of the state of Missouri for a
perpetual injunction to prevent the city
Of Chicago from emptying sewage into
the drainage canal whose waters reach
the Mississippi through the Desplaines
and Illinois rivers. 1t was held that on
account of the canal being flushed
with 100000 cubic feet Of fresh water
from Lake Michigan the Illinois had
been actually improved instead OF
harmed.
jerome After Insurance Grafters.
At last, after an interval so long that
the public had begun to distrust his
motives, District Attorney Jerome OF
New York has made his first open
move against the despoilers OF life in
surance companies in the form of a
presentment by the grand jury, before
which he had made a detailed state
ment of the evidence. The grand jury
asked for the courts advice as to
whether certain acts of insurance Off
Gals in connection with the payment
of political contributions were viola
ton of the law. 1t appears that Jerome
has divided the various phases of the
evidence into distinct groups to avoid
complications. Later the grand jury
will look into the matter of syndicate
deals, Justification of books, false re-
ports, bribery, perjury, etc. The mat
ter was referred to Judge O'Sullivan
Of general sessions.

Just as the case Of the Red Rock
Fuel company Of West Virginia against
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad to
compel the execution of an order by
the interstate commerce commission

rendered by giving the desired rail

a weapon in congress to break llp the
Pennsylvania railroad coal monopoly.

ing deep water At the mouth of the

nell was chosen as chairman and
Mr.. G.. A. Bibbins was made secre-
tary.
Messrs. T. A. Thorgesou, G. II.
ST Clair, William Drews, Sr., b.
NJ. Young and others made very
interesting speeches, showing the
feasibility, cost and benefits likely
to accrue from the opening of a
deep channel from the month of
the river into the gulf. 1t was
shown that twenty foot channel
could be dredged at a cost of about
5000, ,O00.00. II was resolved that
q vigorous campaign be made
through the district which would
be benefited, and every effort be-
ing made to enlist Police Juries,
Municipal Authorities, Progressive
Unions and individuals in the good
cause.
1t was an enthusiastic gathering
aud upon the passing of resolu-
tion to open subscription list.

lug in charge promise large and

conidentally expected that much
good will result and greater inter
est aroused.
Every sea port along the gulf is
asking and receiving aid from the
General Government and none OF
them can show greater natural ad-
vantages nor where so small a sum
of money will accomplish so much.
The meeting effected permanent
organization and will make united
effort to get an early appropriation.
Statistics of the trade of the con-
tigious territory will be compiled,

these strong committee will be
sent to Washington at an early

CHILDREN.
If YOU HAVE ANY AILING ONES
THIS WILL INTEREST YOU.

ave see SO many little boys and girls
about town who are weak, thinlegged and
hollow checked" said Mr. John X. Tay-
lor, our well known druggist, 'it seems a
shame to allow them to remain so for they
will grow up into weak, sickly and ner-
veus men and women, without the vitality
to work or enjoy life.
'If," continued Mr.. John II. Taylor,
"the fathers and mothers Of such children
would believe what we say of Vinol, we
would see great difference in the ap-
pearance of the younger generation Of this
city. You know Vinol is not patent
medicine, and is just the tonic growing
children need. It will make for them
good, healthy flesh, sound bone, hard
muscle, and rich, red blood.
"True. Vinol is cod liver oil prepara-
ton, but it does not contain a drop of oil.
or any bad tasting feature. 1t is so delici-
Gus that all children love it, yet it actual
ly does contain all the medicinal curative
elements found in fresh Gods livers, and
is the most wholesome and best medicine
for children we ever sold.
ffIt il because we know what Vin0l will
do that we guarantee If it fails to make
your children well, rugged and rosy, to
refund your money" John X. Taylor,
Druggist.
