The Need of a Big Man

Mr. Earnest H. Crosby is radical
whose motives no one can donbt. Born
a conservative and the heir to large
fortune, he had every selfish reason to
be content with the existing order OF
things. But his heart was too big for
him to remain long uninfluenoed by the
tragic conditions upon which his wealth
was based, and since his conversion to
revolutionary tendencies the social-re-
form Gang has had no more faithful
ally. Poems, sermons, pamphlets and
lectures have issued from his energetic
mind With steady purpose, and always
in behalf OF the proletariat. And still
he feels that his work is all before him.
As he says in a striking editorial in the
February number OF the Cosmopolitan
Magazine: si,f u.
"We still are in need Of freedom, then,
in form adapted to present scircum.
stances, and the need to-day is more
searching and widespread than it ever
was before. The tasks OF Washington
and Of Lincoln were comparatively sim
pie and easy. To cut of the connec-
ton with England was like amputating
separ ate limb. The ulcer of the slave
power Was localized, and three quarters

Governor Cummins' desire to have a

Governor Cummins' desire to have a
convention Of delegates from all the
states assemble in Des Moines next
summer to adopt plans for concerted
effort to secure an amendment of the
federal Constitution providing for the
election Of senators by the direct
vote Of the people bids fair to be realized.
The Iowa senate has adopted a resolu
calling for such convention with only
nine negative votes, and obstacles to the
further progress OF the plan are not an
ticipsted. The enemies Of the governor
made a political fight on his proposal,
and attempted to show that it was part
OF personal attack on Senators Allison
and Dolliver. Whatever Iowa's local
political situation may be, it is certain
that the country will not interpret the
resolution as an attack on these senators.
Their excellent reputation, indeed,
serves to make Iowa q fortunately situated
state to take the lead in this matter.

No ensmy of4he reform can charge
Iowa with having any exceptional in
terest 10 the reform which other states
do not have. There is every reason to
believe that the great majority Of tho
states will gladly send delegates to such
convention. So widespread is the
desire for the popular election Of sena-
tors that it is probable the delegates
can easily agree upon plan of action
by which the necessary thirty states
will unite in call for convention
which Congress cannot neglect. 1t is
certainly not outside Of the range of
possibilities that within four or five
years this reform will have been
achieved. If it comes it will be the
second change in the organization of
our federal government as embodied in
the Constitution, the only other change
having been that in the manner of elect
ing the President and Vice President,
made necessary by the unfortunate
Jeffe rson Burr contest.

Of the body polite at any rate was in a
healthy condition, but now we have to
do with disease which has infected
every drop of our blood and made its
way into every tissue. We need bigger
president than Washington or Lincoln,
for the oppor tunity is far greater than
it was in their day,
liking power, slave powor, money
power! Two Of them have fallen. Who
will tackle the third? 1t will be no
operation Of pin pricks, but it will re-
quire a sharp knife, a steady hand and
determined hoart. AS Andrew jack
son took the Unitsd States Bark by the
throat, so the selfish gamblers of today,
whose authentic exploits are chronicled
in our magazines month after month
and in the daily reports Of investigation
committee, and whose pawns are made
of flesh and blood, must be shorn Of
their privileges and sent back chastened
to the place OF equal opportunity with
their fellow citizens. We need man

What is technicality in law?
1t is roundabout way by which
influential lawbreakers whose

That day is inseporably associ-.

Let all the "higher criticism" of

in fact, against the vice of lying
in all it's Protean forms.
Is it not time to apply-in the
laws and practices Of this country
the doctrine of the cherry tree
to statements made under oath as
we'll as to the simple afirmations
of one person to another? Ought

UMBRELLA SHEDS
FOR NEW STATION
Subject Discussed at Con-

Umbrella sheds are likely to be used
with the completion Of the new Us:on

Gated AT q conference yesterday between
the three District Commissioners. A. r.

engineer Of She Baltimore and ohio
railroad; ID. Il. Burnham, architect OF
the Union station; Robert Farnham. a
constructing engineer: G b Hunt Dis
trict engineer of highways, and Charles
Fernald.
The railroad men advanced "a number
OF strong reasons why the umbrella
sheds should be given the preference
over the old style canopy sheds. stating
that by using the former passengers
would be TO no discomfort by reason OF
smoke and gases.
They also pointed out that the nm
brelia sheds have received the indorse-
ment Of railroad experts generally. and
are now in use ia several Of the big
cities. The Commissioners were i'm
pressed with the argument presented by
the railroad men, and promised 10 settle

young men, for the good OF society and
10 the de,riment of the makers OF pres

neriments and willingly subject them
selves TO all the conditions OF t+le tests.
No Alcohol Squad.
There was a cheerful story ahoat-
nobody knows where or by whom it was
started. and il wouldn't do any good if
the guilty party could be Iocated-that

squad this winter. To the deep disap-
pointment of some millions OF folks who
would have been glad 10 offer them
selves as subjects, announcement must
be made. on the strength Of DIT. Wiley )

elage. that there Is nothing in it, and
never yyas-uot a drink. Tanks and cN-
tanks will govern themselves accord
ingly. and make other arrangements Tor
getting their winters supply OF drinks
Dr. Wiley isn't going 10 feed anybody
any nighbaIs or blended whiskys, eHer'
vescent or still wines gin riekeys or
mint iuleps. He never thought OF doing
such a thing. HASN'T an idea how the
story got started doesn't care who
started 1t. OF how many newspapers
have printed il, and doesn't propose 10
let his saltpeter program be interIered
with by the conflicting alcohol yarn.
The saItpeter squad viii consist OF an
even dozen young men, and VIII be kept
running "til we get results as the
chief chemist explained il. How long
that will be nobody can guess. It took
a year for the bOraX squad 10 digest the
evidence and the boraX, and bring IN a
verdict At other times three months
Df a given diet has been enough 20 sat
isfy everybody and prove the working
effects OF the critical article OF diet.

men Of the squad are.
Is Saltpeter Necessary?
Satpeter is one of the most generally
used preservative substances and there
