The New York Mail hands out this story:
 Representative Joseph A. Goulden. a this city and also the New York agent of the Penn Mutual Life Insurance Company. should be taken In hand by Hughes. and made to disclose the foundation material. the exact circum- stances. of the very extraordinary sto- committee of the National House of Representatives.

 He also says that his company was held up for $1o,o0O by the Republican national committee in 1896" that il either Mckinley or Bryan. but that ii was threatened and had to pay.
 We are not vouching for MT. Goul- den. or for the accuracy of his state ments. He Is a Union veteran, who has twice been elected to Congress from the 18th District of New York and withal Is a Democrat. We agree with The Mall that he has said toe much or not enough. If his charges are made by way of playing politics he has said too much. but if he has au- thority for his statements. as he should have. for they are of a serious charao- ter, he should be able and willing to make good his words. It must be admitted, in the meantime. that what he says is very much in accord with him give a bill of particulars.

reau chiefs having that rank tempor- arily. He closed his letter with the statement that the President could use his veto power, if he thought 1t advls- able to do so, and run the risk of los- ing his popularity, but that the com mittee on pensions woufd follow us judgment in passing upon pension ap pIications without any regard 10 the Presidents wishes in the matter.
 Of course. the President was doing all right in trying to shut on the pen : sion graft, but why din't he do . as bills? Mir. Cleveland made a reputa- tion for vetoing sucn bills. and the country sustained him. And by the use of his veto power he impressed upon Congress the Siecessity for great CT care and economy in that kind of legislation. President Roosevelt lack ed the courage to do what Mir. Cleve- land did. He replied to the chairman of the pension committee in a tame letter. saying he hoped the commit tee would use care in passing upon ap- plications for pensions. These claims that are granted by Congress are. as rule, claims that have been rejected by the Pension Bureau.
 This pension business illustrates pretty clearly the difference between the courage of MT. Cleveland and that of Mir. Roosevelt. MT. Cleveland did what he thought was right regard less of the effect 1t might have upo1 his popularity. MT. Roosevelt doesn't take any risks where his popularity Is concerned.

WONDERFUL CURE BY
 CUTICURA REMEDIES

Hast year at this time I suffered with a tremendous itching on my back, which grew worse and worse, un- til it spread over the whole body, and only my face and hands were free. For four months or so I suffered the torments of the damned, and had to scratch, scratch, scratch, until l bled. At night when I went to bed things got worse, and I had at times to get up and scratch my body all over, until l was as sore as could be, and until l suffered excruciating pains. I did not know what it was, and resorted to number of blood purifiers, using at times also Cuticura Soap. They told me then that 1 was suffering from eczema. Then I made up my mind that l would also use Cuticura Oint- ment and Cuticura Resolvent. l used them according to instructions, and very soon indeed I was greatly relieved. I continued until well, and now am ready to recommend the Cuticura Rem- edies to any one who suffers as did your obedient servant. Mrs. Mary Metzgey, Sweetwater, Okla., June 28, 1905"

CrTrrNG orr rHE ICE.

In a number of Northern and East ern cities there are numerous com plaints and much evaporation over ice monopolies and consequent increase in prices. In Hartford. as we learn from The Times. there are three large companies. all acting in concert. Nei- ther company will serve the customers of another company. but all agree in fixing and maintaining prices. In Cleveland. Ohio. a lot of Ice company officials were indicted for forming q trust and putting up the price of ice. and from various other places there are reports of ice trusts which are literally robbing the people.
 And this reminds us of what hap pened in the city of New York some years ago, in 1900. we believe. What was known as the American Ice Com many obtained control of the entire business of the city and announced that the price of ice would be sixty cents per hundred pounds. and that the sale of 1t in small quantities woul l he discontinued. This announcement naturally caused much comment and indignation. To the people of that great city ice is not merely a luxury during the sweltering heat of summer but Is an absolute necessity The price fixed by the combination and the refusal to sell 1t in small quantities worked a fearful hardship, especially On the poorer classes. the women and the babies. It was apost like depriv- ing them of air.
 Naturally there was an outcry. An

QUEER LEGAL CONCEPTIONS.


 The way of courts, judges, lawyers and other legal appurtenances Is some- times past finding out. at least to the ordinary human intelligence. There has been a somewhat complicated le- gal fight in Massachusetts. where ons Tucker was charged with the murder pf 6 girl named Mabel Page. On the trial of Tucker one of the strongest witnesses against him was the medical examiner of the county in which the murder occurred. who swore that the hefendant- was guilty. Now he as- serts that he does not believe Tucker was guilty of the crime. and gives as c reason for his former testimony an order issued by a former Attorney In murder trials no medical examiner must be q witness for the defense. The pfaciai now confesses that he testified falsely, excuses himself by saying that the Attorney Generals order compell- ed him to be,a witness for the prosecu- tion.
 Tn this case we hardly know which
 
 Attorney General or the present med teal examiner. We are unable to un- Sierstand why any State official should have issued such an order. We had supposed it to be a well establish sd principle that a man, expert or other. might be summoned as a witness on either side and forced to give evidence accordingly, and have never before heard that a medica9 oficial could on- iy be allowed to testify against an &C., cused person. Nor is 1t any less in- romprehensible that man of standing sufficient to secure for him the posi- tion of medical examiner of a county should deliberately swear away the life of a presumably innocent man and give as his only defence for such in- fanny that an order of some former Attorney General commanded him to do it.
 Another recent instance of legal special pleading occurred when the case of Senator Burton was before the Supreme Court for final review. His lawyers claimed that the Senate itself was the only constitutional tribunal before which a Senator could be tried. and that Burton's conviction in court was null and void. They claimed also that a Senator could not be tried and punished for doing what a private citizen could do with impunity. The Supreme Court paid no heed to these pleas. but they show how ingenious lawyers can find ways to win their cases, or try to win them. even when others can see no grounds for their position.

old Mammon of Alabama. Mnhila IIAral6

Old .mammon Is not doing so very much in his campaign for the rulership of Alabama, and that for two reasons: given to the worshipyof the golden calf. Second, since MT. Corners dollar mark arguments have played out he finds
 a6 himself sssrt ss s5sv on political and the nn9n thereof is the only lesson he has learn ed in the school of life which he has
 In MT. Corners speech, according to the Tailadega Mountain Home. when he opened his campaign, Mir. Conner used these exact words:
 'T am both a manufacturer and a farmer. As a farmer I raise about l. 400 bales of cotton and as farmer l think about 20 cents for cotton is cheap bales and I think five cents for that
 That is niamnnon and that is MT. Co., mer. He has followed self interest all of his life and can not see anything in himself or in others except the service of self interest.
 "The statement quoted above startled iadega Mountain Home, "and within a few days one of the supporters wrote him of the effect it was having in Tal- 1adega, advising him to refrain from that time we have not seen 1t in Mfr. Corners published speeches"
 Though MT. Conner had dropped that ceeded in getting above his mental plane of selfish commercialism, nor has he succeeded in concealing his innate greed. He still defends child labor be- cause he finds child labor in his mills to be profitable to him. He advocates the lowering of freight rates on the 100 or so articles by which he would be benefited and the rate on thousands of other articles effectlng the general public he is willing to leave in statu- quo.
 That is mammon and that is Mir. Conner.

In the Camp of Alabama Republicans


 In the Camp of Alabama Republicans. Birmingham Ledger.
 Julius W. Davidson, who will op- pose Joseph o. Thompson for chairman of the next Republican State commit tee. has addressed an open letter to MT. Thompson. the present incumbent, in which he asks some pertinent ques- tions. The letter Is causing no little talk among local members of the par ty and promises to be a matter of State interest.
 One of the most pertinent questions asked In the communieatlon ct6 IS 6 one 1 as mittee, and who have been dropped from the rolls. Following the general question, comes the statement: This information may be possessed by sev- eral up- date, versatile politicians in the State but the thousands of us who are expected to do the voting are !n
 Other questions deal with the place of meeting of the next convention, and ask that some explanation be made of rumor to the effect that the meet ing would be held in some place inac- cessible to the majority of the mem bers and delegates. The letter com mends the actions of the president, in drawing a line between federal or flee holders and party organizations, and also makes a plea for the Repub- lican party to nominate candidates for every ofice from Governor to consta'
 MT Thompson is out of the city to-- day, and efforts to see him with regard to the matter were therefore ineffect- ual. It is understood that he has not yet received the copy of the letter mailed him, and 1t cannot therefore, be stated whether or not he will re- ply.
 Mr Davidson's letter is regarded as the forerunner of a campaign which may rival any the Republicans have ever had in Alabama. Rumor says that the old lilly white" prty will spring Into life this year stronger than 1t was some five years ago, and that one of the bitter struggles of the next Re- publican convention may be made upon the question of negro representation on the committee and on the floor of the cnvention.

Some Rcuubl,can Advice.

New York Commercial.
 If President Roosevelt Is susceptible of being taught a lesson, he will let his experience in steering" the rate bill through the senate move him to leave that body severely alone when 1t takes up the type of the Panama Canal for serious discussion. With a committee report preponderously In favor of the sea-level type. it might reasonably be expected that a good majority of the senate would acquiesce in that view of the question; but how the members will divide is problemati- cal at the moment: personal opinion IS no doubt sharply divided among them. This may fairly be said of the pros pect. however: If the President be- trays any disposition to insist on the lock type of canal and to take the senate In hand" for leading it up to that trough, 1t will stubbornly refuse to drink, no doubt. The upper chamo- . CT of the Fifty-ninth Congress is nor in a mood just now for any more Wnlte House interference" with legislation. The saving in time and money oy building a lock canal constitutes strong argument with many peopie1, and the President is known to nave t ses his heart on that type; and all the e crossed in hIs opinions and wishes; Brt he must recognize the pronounced trend of opinion of late toward the sea-leveI type; and he will only help that trend along If he insists on hay ing his own way. If he sits quietly In the background. he may possibly get his wish, Otherwise, he will find the senate just in temper to thw&rt him.

BUILDING BIC srEAMERs.

Will there finally be limit to the length of steamships7 If so. can any one predict what 1t will be7 We refsr now to passenger and freight steam CTS. not to warships. Nearly half century ago when the Great Eastern was launched there were many who predicted that no larger ship would ever be built. Her extreme length was ss3 feet. and great expectations were built on her performances, but for some cause the vessel was never a success. From the time of her com plstion in 1858 her career for the thirty years of her existence was nearly ai- ways unfortunate. In laying the great ocean cables her great size and carry ing capacity made her useful. but for all other purposes she was practically failure. Finally she became a mere coal hulk and in 1887 was sold and broken up.
 Such is the brief history of the Leviathan. as the Great Eastern was sometimes called. Building the vessel was an unlucky venture. probably be- cause the times were not ripe for such an ocean monster. That ended the big ship fad for a time. but not for all ways. Modern inventions and im- provements have made possible what could not be successfully accomplish cd forty or fifty years ago. For some years now the ocean steamers have been growing. so to speak. until they have already surpassed the Great Eas- tern. There steamed into New York harbor a few days ago the German steamer Kaiserin Auguste Victoria. meascrtag 727.e feet In iength-near- ly thirty-six feet longer than the Great Eastern. and her voyage was successful. Not to go into details or her construction. tonnage and carry ing capacity we only mention that when fully loaded with passengers. first. second and third class and steer age. and with a full complement of od.cers and crew she will accommo- date 4.i5o persons. This will give an idea of the enormous room the vessel has.
 But this Is not yet the limit. for the British. not to be outdone. have now in course of construction and will shortly launch a steamer 800 feet n length. The details of her tonnage. and other particulars concerning her are not yet public. but we may assume that she will in all respects be superb or to the German monster. as she Is superior in length. And we have no reason to believe that the limit will be reached when this British vessel is completed. The present generation will probably see vessels one thousand feet long. and with corresponding speed and carrying capacity.
 It is dlfncult to get a proper concep- ton of the size of such a vessel as this German ship is from only seeing the figures telling her size. but if any one will measure of a ship-shaped plot twenty-six yards wide and PAP yards long he can see how much space there is on only one of her decks and how far a person can walk in going from end to end of the huge steamer. for she is considerably over one-eighth of a mile in length. It Is tho age Jf big ships and as long as increase In size carries a corresponding increase in profit no one can predict what the limit will be or when 1t will be reach ed.

 There was a sensation here today in the proceedings of the committee which is investigating the State dis pensary The subcommittee which has been doing all of the work consists of J.

 In the committee meeting Senator Christensen arose and told that H H. Evans, former chairman of the board, had threatened to kill witness es on the stand If ;=ey should testi- fy against him.

Referring to Foraker's vote against the rate bill, and to some harsh criti- cisms because of that vote, The New Haven Register reminds us that Sen ator Foraker from the first declared as a lawyer that the bill was drawn upon unconstitutional lines, and his ar gument was listened to with great re- spect by his colleagues and associates, more than one of them insisting that amendments should be offered to meet some of his objections. The thing to do, therefore. is not to question the good faith of the Senator from Ohio. but to await the verdict of the Supreme Court, to which in all Likelihood the proposed law will subsequently, be submitted"
 Time and the courts alone can decide whether Foraker, Morgan and Pettus were right in their opposition, but we shall not be surprised to find their judgment fully vindicated in the near future.
