WAS WILLING TO 7
One in the Audience Who Had Never
Ecard Of the Great Man In
Question.

At the recent annual meeting Of the
voters of Cape Elizabeth two names
were presented for moderator, Henry
s. Jorden and Clement e. Staples, Re-
publican and Citizen, respectively,
says the Boston Herald. The orator
who nominated MI. Staples made a
mighty effort. "Who is Clement E.
Staples?" he cried. as he waved his
arms like pump handles and strobe
back and forth on the platform. A
deep and impressive silence followed.
Again waving his arms, he called in
a voice of thunder: who is Clement
e. Staples?" The silence was more
pronounced and the effect greater. The
audience was visibly impressed. Be-
fore attempting to dwell upon the
good qualities of his candidate, the
speaker again proclaimed: II say,
who is Clement e. Staples?"
A small man in the rear of the hall
stood on a chair and broke the silence
by saying: "Waal, I'll bite. Who is
he?"

Going through the hospitals in our

a large proportion of the patients lying
on those snow-white beds women
and girls, who are either awaiting
or recovering from serions operations.
Why should this be the case? Sim
ply because they have neglected them
selves. Female troubles are certainly
on the increase among the women OF
this country-they creep upon them
unawares, but every one OF those
patients in the hospital beds had plenty
of warning in that bearing-down feel

nervous exhaustion, pain in the small

Ma. ROOSEVELT AND THE SUBSIDY.

Washington dispatches say that
President Roosevelt is deeply interest
ed in the ship subsidy bill which recent
ly passed the senate and that he is very
anxious that that measure be adopted
by the house. 1t is difficult to under
stand how a president who perhaps
more than any other man since Jack
sons time has been made to realize the
difficulties encountered by the people
In graphing with arrogant monopolies
can bring himself to support one of the
most vicious of all the subsidy schemes
ever offered to a people.
Mr.. Roosevelt asked for and received
the cooperation of men of all political
parties when he announced his determi-
nation to bring about a reform in the
matter of railway legislation. Men hav-
ing RIO axes to grind flocked to the presi-
dents support. They were governed
by principle, and it is regrettable that
the president, who has been the bene-
tisiary of such general support by the
American people abandons the high
position he has taken and gives support
to vicious scheme.
Mr.. Roosevelt has done many strange
things since he entered the White
House, and if he does not know it now
he Will yet learn that his efforts to put
through the ship subsidy scheme bOde
no good to his standing among the
American people who, partly through
his own agitation of the monopoly ques.
ton, have grown more and more un.
favorable to plans devised to enrich the
few at the expense of the many.-Com

DISCIPLINE REPUBLICAN, coNGRfssMEN.

The failure of the New England Re-
pubiicans in the House to secure the
requisite number of slgners for Repub
lican caucas to consider tariff revision
must be charged to the cowardice of the
Representatives of the Middle West,
from The very States in which the de-
mand for revision is strongest. The
leader of the movement for a caucas,
Mr.. Mccall, of Massachusetts,, Thought
that il the revision issues were put
squaely up to the men from prorevis!on
STATES, such as Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Iowa and Illinois. the issue could. be-
forced. But Speaker Cannon frlehten.
ed them.
Itremains for the people of their dis
tricss TO punish them this year when
they come up for re. election. There is
but -one way to secure REVISION of the
tariff, and that is to elect men who will
do tie work in Congress. Furnishing the
men who failed is one way of impress.
ing the necessity for action upon Rep
resentatives who may be elected. Put
tariff revision iEto the congressional
platforms and hold men to their prom
ises, with the example before them of
defeated men who played traitor to the
task.
Formerly it was necessary to elect a
Democrat to insure opposition to stand
patism. 1t is no longer necessary, and
in the States of Iowa, Illinois, Wiscon
sin and Minnesota the people may have
their choice in the RspG blican party if
they so desire. The tariff is an issue,
destined to be the greatest issue, in the
Republican party. The politicians are
diylded over it; the people are unani-
mously in favor of altering manifestly
negotiable and unjust schedules.
Doubtless the safest vehicle for the
popular expression of prorevlsion senti-
ment is the Democratic party. The
future, should the standpatters control
The Republican machinery III 1908, may
leave no alternative to the people who
desire revision and dellverance from
tariff oppression. But in the present
year it will suffice If the Republican
communities will discipline their erst.
while Representatives who lack the
courage of performance, the fidelity to
conviction, the sense of responsibility
to their constituents. Let the voters
draw the line in their own party as the
politicians have drawn 1t. Such action
will get at the least preliminary re-
suit. 1t will further accentuate the in
defensible position of standpatism and
force the machine politicians into more
open defiance of the popular will. Ii
will better insure the final destruction
of the machine, which must be through
the medium of Democratic votes.-St.

The supreme court and the Hoch adj
ministration put the "ixings" to Mayor
Rose Of Kansas City good and plenty.
The mayor resigned last week and it
was stated that he would be candidate
for re election for purposes of Yindica-
ton but the court went ahead and
ousted him anyway and ordered
that he be disqualified from holding the
office during the unexpired term. Rose
was olsted because he did not enforce
the probibitory law. There have been
many other mayors of that city who did
not enforce it bqt they were repubIi-
cans. Topeka and Wichita also have
republican mayors who do not even at
tempt to enforce it, yet the administra.
ton has not thought of ousting them.
Perhaps Mayor Rose deserved to be
onsted, we don't know. but if he did
there are hundreds of other Kansas
mayors who deserve it none the less.

Senator Bailey's speech {

Senator Bailey's speech on
the rate regulation question
has excited considerable com.
ment, and is pronounced by
men of legal lore to be equal
in clearness and force to any.
thing ever penned by Chief
Justice Marshall. The Sen,
ator advanced the apparently
simple proposition that the
federal courts, having been
created by congress and not
by the constitution, had no
greater powers or jurisdic-
ton, equitable or legal, than
congress chose to confer upon
them. Therefore, if congress
fixes the duty upon the Inter
State Commerce Commission
of imposing rates, and pro-
vides that such rate shall
stand until the final order of
the courts, the federal courts
have no authority or juris.
diction to interfere by in
junction. This is so clear
and apparent that it is a
wonder no one ever thought
of it before, and if correct, is
a very serious blow to the
railroads.

Be DEAD?


When the lion eats like an OK
And the fishworms swallow the whale.
When the terrapins knit woolen sox
And the hare's outrun by the snail.
When serpents walk upright like men
And tumble bugs travel like frogs.
When grasshoppers feed on the hen
And feathers are found on the hogs.
When thomas cats swim in the air
And elephants roost upon trees,
When insects in summer are rare
And snuff never makes people sneeze.
When fish swim upon dry land
And mules on bicycles ride
And foxes lay eggs in the sand.
And women in dress take no pride.
When Dutchmen no longer drink beer
And girls get to preaching on time,
When billy goats butt from the rear
And treason is no longer a crime.
"hen the humming bird brays like an ass
And limburger smells like Cologne,
When plowshares are made out of glass
And the hearts of the Georgians are stone
when ideas grow in gold bugs heads
And wool on the hydraulic ram
Then the Democratic Party will be dead.
And the country won't be worth dam.
