Prejudlced Against Typewriters.


The late Associate Justice Gray OF
the Supreme court was very eccentric
Among his prejudices was a deep and
lasting aversion for typewriter. That
machine did not come into general use
until Justice Gray was an old man and
he never became reconciled to 1t. II
made him furious if a lawyer fled
with. him a motion or other court pa.
par typewriter. He invariably re
turned il with brusque request that
the matter to be submitted be written
in longhand. He had a stenograpber
at his disposal. but never utilized his
services, as he wrote all his letters as
well as his opinions. lie notified The
clerk Of the Supreme court not To send
him any tyrewritten paper. no matter
how important II might be. lie never
neglected an opportunity to deHouuCe
typewriters. The result OF his hatred
fer these machines was thar he lid
three times as much work as he Other
justices.

Mrs. Sampson went into her room

women eradicate the evidences OF
worry and trouble and wear and tear.
Presently she emerged looking as
fresh and serene as though there was
no house party, no VIII Cummings, no
Carrie Hepburn. no upset match-mak-

sunshine and content.
Her big husband looked at her with
mingled wonder and admiration. and
together they went down to greet their
friends. At the table Sampson noted
for the first time during the week that
Miss Hepburn and Cummings were
seated next each other. Now that be

had been so seated since the party

TO MANY FADES 10 SAVE

A good deal has been said about per hitting Speaker Cannon to save his face in the statehood business; but why put all the burden on the speaker of the house? He was only voicing the position of the administration, and he was able to deliver the goods in his branch of Congress. It was not until the statehood bill reached the senate, where Senator Beverage had it in charge, that the double-barrelled pro- posal was eliminated. Apparently no attempt is to be made to allow Senator Beveridge to save his face. In fact, the bill has apparently been taken out of his charge. Thus an example is furnished of how cut-and-dried policy can be changed completely by the pow CT of public sentiment and the demand for justice to Arizona that resulted in the adoption of the compromise meas ure, which will not force any territory into the Union under conditions repug nant to majority of its voters Bos- ton Herald.

THE BRYAN MOVEMENT

Among the changes that recent years have brought few are more striking than the attitude taken by the general public regarding the probable candi- dacy of William J. Bryan for the pres idency. Even the best informed poli ticians at Washington marvel at the rush to the Bryan standard, in which the democrats of Arkansas, Indiana, Missouri and South Dakota have led the way. If the wave of sentiment goes on as 1t has begun the democratic endorsement of Mir. Bryan as their can didate for president in 1908 bids fair to become unanimous. No less signifi- canoe than the formal endorsement of the several state conventions are the opinions expressed by the party lead CTS in every section of the country. ln- terviews with prominent democrats show that the Bryan leaven is working throughout the country.
 This tendency is not as strange as it might at first thought appear. It should be remembered that Mir. Bryan boiled 1, 300, 900 more votes in 1900 than were cast for Judge Parker in 1904 Those who thought that MT. Bryan's leanings were socialistic have been dis abused of that idea by his recent delar- ation of opposition to socialism. There is nothing in common between democ- racy and socialism. Democracy stands for the rights of the individual which socialism would destroy. Democracy teaches that the least governed people are the best governed. Socialism would have the government do every thing for us. President Roosevelt might with more truth be called so- cialist. Most of his recent actions and recommendations have been directly along this line.
 Among the more thoughtful repub- hcan poll ticians and newspapers there is less disposition than formerly to treat Mir. Bryan either abusively or jestingly. They realize the fact that political conditions have changed very materially since he was candidate, and that as matters now stand he would be hard man to beat. The New York Tribune says that he has attracted general confidence in his integrity and sincerity as public man, and he has done the country at least one service for which he has never received sufficient credit" And this service was "the destruction of the old sectional spirit and influence dominant in the democratic party" which the Tribune thinks is the real cause of his availability.

BUSINESS MORALITY

Under the caption of "ciean hands and clear heads,' the Tucson Citizen editorially says:
 The exposure of corrupt practices in public and private business life is cal culated to puzzle if not paralyze some good peoples sense of discrimination. The searchers for wrong have appar- ently got the rascals on the run, and some of them are found to be in high places. But let there be no quaking of knees for fear the whole social struc- ture IS unsound. Let us not loose our heads or our hearts because institutions and corporations which we had thought were thoroughly honest are found to have unfaithful servants in them, who are imbecile enough to permit them selves to be bribed to do their plain duty.
 There are plenty of men in positions of trust who would rather lay down their lives if need be, than to surren- der the sense of honesty and fidelity to duty which has animated their careers to this trying hour. On such men, who have mistakenly trusted others, we can rely to scrape off these corrupting ex- crescences and see that the proper remedies are applied
 The difficulty is with our standards of duty. We touch lightly on our ethi- cal training, but lay much stress on business shrewdness. Are we not now reaping the reward of one-sided edu- cation? The fault is not So much eco nomical as ethical It is not so much that men are getting increased incomes as that they are less in love with their work and more in love with their gains than is healthtul for the good of al concerned.
