SYRINGE BEDFELL0WS.

Politics makes strange bedfellows. William Randolph Hearst and his new bedfellows are especially strange. Not long ago he was calling Murphy an ut- terly constituencies and extremely practical politician, a grafter and spoilsman, and was declaring his fol- lowers to be out for all they could grab and steal without being hanged for it. Not long ago he was describing Tam many as an organization whose princi- ples were and ever had been seven five loaves and two fishes. And he was in the habit of speaking of Bourke Cochran as Bought Cochran.
 The reunion of such friends as these is touching spectacle, and what it in- dicates is also touching. It is interest," ing to notice that wise people in New York are not undertaking the danger from this combination. They can't af~ ford to, The same management that has brought about the nomination of MT. Hearst will be used to bring about his election. And many stranger things than his election have happened.

AN ACCOMPLISHED MAN.

One of the most remarkable men that ever lived in Columbia, Mo-" said Colonel J, s. Dorsey the other day, twas Sam Young, who was q lawyer here for twelve or fifteen years before the war. He wos not only good law yer, but one of the best actors I ever saw on the stage He was fine shoe maker, the best cigarmaker I ever saw, and could play a violin as well as the old masters. He could make the most effective temperance speech and then a few hours afterward could be drunker than any other man in Columbia. He made an ideal prayer meeting leader and could beat every one else in a poker game He was the most accom- plished man I ever saw. "-Kansas City Star

SOME TRUE PHILAN THROPY.

There are thoughtful and kind people in the world, and their doings sorne- times get into the papers along with the doings of criminals, politicians and other disturbers of the peace. The plan of two Cleveland men to establish manufacturing plant in which none but crippled persons are to be employ- ed is another step in the direction of systematic effort to utilize the abilities of the many who, because of some mis- fortune, have been crowded out of the ranks of the wage earners. The work is to be begun under modest auspices, provision being made for twenty em- ployees. In the two rooms occupied there will be designing and perforat- ing, cloth and ivory button making, apron and waist sewing, and lace mending. The plan seems to be so practicable as to be deserving of at tention from philanthrophIc agencies in other cities.
 There are many people in every large community whose lives are sad dened because, while willing to work and able to do much, they are unable to get the needed opening because of some accident or serious illness which has left them crippled and rel atively less able than the average to make the fight for existence. Success to any effort that will make them more useful and more happy.

FRENCH FINANCES.

French finances are interesting, espe- cialIy since the French have begun to buy United States securities. Last July, M. Poincare, the French minister of finance, in presenting the estimates for 1907 sketched the financial outlook in gloomy colors. It was necessary, he said, to find a sum of 375, 5,0O0,OO0 francs to meet the expenditure. A fresh loan and new taxation were the only re- sources, he declared for meeting this deficit M. Jaures now proclaims that, notwithstanding M. Poincare's pessi- mism, the revenue has been eonsldera- ply in excess of the estimates. Thus the month of August alone brought in 20, ,000, 900 francs more than had been ex- pected, and the surplus for the first eight months of the year was 71,0O0000 francs. M. Jaures imputes to M. Pon- care the intention of blocking Socialist legislation on the plea of poverty, and accuses him of wanting to conceal from the country and, in particular, from the members of the Chamber, this sat- isfactory state of affairs, adding that there would be only one way of doing it and that would be by falsifying the public accounts in order to create a fic- titious deficit,
 It is pointed out that the logical de- duction from all this is that M. Jaures and his followers mean to insist, at the earliest opportunity, upon large measure of socialistic legislation. A Paris correspondent of a London jour nal says the mere prospect of such a possibility is increasing the nervousness of French capitalists with regard to all

CURIOUS ATTACK ON 4 DEMON


 That there may be evil in Ken lucky whisky is perceived even in Ken lucky. And in Louisville a curious attempt to diminish the evil is in the works. The Board of Aldermen is con- sidering an ordinance requiring all drunkards to have their pictures taken. One picture is to be deposited in the archives of the Board of Safety, and others are to be distributed in com merelal establishments where the best and purest of the Kentucky vintage is dispensed by the gentlemanly bar keeper. On application for something in the liquid line the barkeeper is ex- pected to overhaul his gallery and if the original individual in front of the bar is represented by counterfeit pre- sentiment behind the bar, there is to be no thirst-destroyer dispensed, or, if dispensed the Board of Safety is re- quired to dispense with further licens- ing the place.
 There is talk in Louisville that such an ordinance as this would not be entirely constitutional. Perhaps mt. In Fond du Lac they are to have what is called Hall of shame, The city council has decided to have every drunk photographed when arrested. Then a copy of the picture is to be. placed on the wall of every saloon in the town with history of his life and habits.

uFTowN FOLKS.

The folks who live in Iftown would all
 be millionaires If Sam had only hung to those Grlzzly
 Mountain shares; If Jim had known his buckwheat fields
 were on Petroleum Heights If Bill had financed Scudder's play that
 ran ten thousand nights, In Mayfair mansions would they live,
 and drive q coach and span. If fathers lawyer had not cribbed his
 patent frying pan. With doIeful stories such as these our
 patience they beset. The gloomy wights of lttoWn, by the
 River of Regret. The folks who live in Iftown put little
 faith in pluck; When people hit the mark they call it
 merely luck. They view the strenuous vlctors pays
 with dubious eyes askance, And tell us what they would have done
 if they had had the chance, Before the embers of the past they
 warm their bloodless clay, Where courage stoops to light his
 torch; and dares the darkling
 way; But Opportunity lies dead; no fields are
 left to till, So wall the folks of Iftown, in the prov
 ince of stand Still. 0 citizens of Iftown! the morning dew
 is sweet The world has only just begun to try it's
 infant feet, The earth Is panting in its thirst for
 floods of honest sweat, The haryests on tho Hustling Hills nave
 not been garnered yet. The only peaks we cannot scale the
 inaccessible cliffs Are those we build day after day with
 ifs surmOunting ifs. Wake up. Vamose your mouldy shacks,
 and sniff the inspiring air. And bid farewell to Iftown, in the val
 ley of Despair.

Consul-G General Rublee, at Vienia, re- ports that last year Austria used 6,940,O92 gallons of denatured alcohol, and Hungary 4,755,O gallons. The sanguine expectations of two years ago have not come true yet, however. There has been, to be sure, some further introduction of denatured alco- hol for industrial purposes" says MT. Rublee, land it Is also somewhat more generally used for lighting purposes, but the progress has been slow, It is not used at all as fuel for automo- piles, except by one or two manufac- turers of denatured alcohol who burn it in their own machines. The cost is too high as compared with benzine the fuel with which automobiles are run in Austria"

 A German paper says that the mon- keys have disappeared from Gibraltar and with their disappearance the last wild monkeys have vanished from Eu- rope. A correspondent of the London Spectator contradicts this. He writes. "rnhe monkeys are thought to be dis appearing. Most authorities believe that only five remain on the Rock. Some, however, think they are eight. The firing of the big guns is thought to have something to do with the dis appearance. though no one knows where they have moved to. But it may interest the readers of The Spectator to know that steps are being taken to introduce some fresh blood from Mo rocco where monkeys are numerous, though not easily secured"

dition for hard contest all the year
round and does it with very little eff
fort. In America you throw all your
energy into brief training period
and call on the sevices Of a profess
sional to get your men in top form.
1t is this desperate energy concen-
trated in your training, the determin-
alton to win at any cost, which is dis
tasteful to the English sportsmen
and which should consider injurious
to your men. The evil of this form
of training lies principally in the re-
action which it produces on the ath-
lete No man can work like your
American athletes do for any length
of time without injury. Your football
season lasts approximately two
months, during which time your ath-
letes are fed on special diet and
worked to the limit. When your sea
son is over YOU break training com
pletely, and | fail to see how this can
be done without injury to the ath-
letes. For the rest of the year many
of your football players, not all of
them to be sure, abandon their train
ing altogether. How much better
it would be If your athletes took their
training more moderately and kept it
up the greater part of the year

LENROOT SPEAKS
FOR PRIMARY LAW

New York. March AT yesterday
afternoons session of the national
conference on primary election and
ballot reform, George Fred Rush of
Chicago, who drafted the first primary
law of Illinois, discussed the Illinois
primary. He declared that the exist
ence of great, important political par
ties in this country is inevitable and
that the aim should be to present to
them a primary law so fair that they
would profit by using it-one that
will answer every demand of reform
ers.
Irvine L. Lenroot, speaker of the
Wisconsin assembly. said that the
fight in his state was won in spite of
the convention system. The law has
been tried as yet only in municipal
elections, but wherever it has been
tried it has been a complete success.
The railroad lobbyists opposed the
law, as they expressed it, because it
prevented them from getting together
to talk it over with the voter. I'VE
know in Wisconsin what happens
when the railroad lobbyists get to-
gether to talk it over Does anyone
doubt that Jerome would have been
nominated under the direct primary
law? 1t is the machine that stands
between the man and the people. You
also have here two senators who are
quite well known throughout the coun-
try. But sentiment In regard to them
is somewhat different from the feel
ing for Jerome. Does any one think
either of them would have been nom
mated by direct vote?"
There were several other speeches
and letter was read from Perry Bel
mont giving expression to his views
in favor of ballot reform.
