various Physical Troubles Vanish
when OTHERS Troop In.


San Francisco reports that a number OF
nersons who suffered from various all
ments previously to the earthquake and
fire IN that city find themselves completely
cured, one paraIytic, who for fifteen years
had been crippled by his disease, is now
"entireIy cured" and numerous other re-
coveries have been recorded. These are in
teresting by-products of the catastrophe,
such. for example, as the case of the
Young girl whose vocal organs would not
work after the shock but who recovered
her speech at the sight OF her mother.
Travellers in lands subject TO frequent
seismic disturbances have recorded many
curious incidents Of the effect produced
by shocks on human beings. During the
war between Japan and Russia a party
of foreigners gave dinner to one OF their
number in a japanese city. The feast was
not food alone and when It had been in pro-
eress some time the diners allowed them
selves to act in a manner less digni1ed and
reserved than is customary among grown
men. The dinner was ended by an earth
quake. The effect of the tremor was to re-
duce every person present from the gayety
produced by good wines TO his normal
condition Of sobriety. One distinguished
European military officer Of middle life
found himself standing on a table bowling
a famous drinking song Another man OF
equal dignity was dancing to illustrate a
story he had just told. Their confusion

There is no mystery about the cures re-

an earthquake TO demonstrate the power OF
fright, or any strong emotion or shock TO
overcome physical maladies. A farmer so

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OF RATE RESULT
The fact that Senator Aldrich and his
coterie at length agree to the rate bill
proves, not that they have triumphed,
but that the movement for public con-
troll has triumphed over them. They
yield. not voluntarily, but under COM
pulsion. There is nothing else for them
to do.
1t is inevitable, however, in this case,
as in all such cases, that attempt will
be made in two different quarters for
opposite purposes to represent the re-
suit of the legislative struggle in the
reverse OF its true light. On the one
hand the defeated always want to save
their faces, and when sure to be forced
to the wall to maneuver so as to claim
that that was the direction in which
they desired to go, as Mcclellan, when
driven by Lee back from Richmond,
claimed that it was only "a change of
base" If those who have been driven
of the field by the indomitable courage
of President Roosevelt and the power
of publio opinion find it convenient for
themselves to call their defeat victory
to thoughtful minds it only emphasizes
the contrary fact instead of changing
it.
On the other hand, such tactics is
sure to be used in the democratic parti-
san press to give color to their effort
to disparage to the utmost the great
achievement for public supremacy over
corporations. The very thoroughness
of the work would in any event PIT
special stress upon habitual and in
terested partisan detractors.
But the great mass of the people,
whose support, in line with their para
mount interest, has been the true basis
OF success. are not going to be de-
ceived. They know we'll that the lead
ership of President Roosevelt through
I out has been as wise as resolute, and
/ their deliberate judgment may be
safely trusted to reach the truth that

clares. the longest step yet taken in
