speech from Tia throne q new and uneS-
pectcd current ~ feeling was aptn rent
among thu Deputies The Dumn had owl.
dsntly made ~ ~ mind not TO renew H.
debate Ut the most crucial point. namely.
amnesty. THIS determination was cheat ly
evident from tho following incident
After u statement 10y Pre-idcn, Muromt-
sell regarding the Czar's refusal TO receive
the address personally. Deputy kornitieH
recalled the fact that the Duma NJ IL frat
sitting, had unanimously expressed a desire
that amnesty should be granted promptly.
but II was obviously useless, he said. to
expect any amnesty now in view Of the
delay IN acCeding to the wishes Of The peoples
representatives. He therefore proposed
that on the irst business day a debate
should take place on tho bill to act free all
political prisoners.
The President declared that he knew
nothing about any such bill.
There were cries Of Yes, yes, II was dis
tributed."
Perhaps IL was distributed privately"
observed the Pre- sident. 1T was certainly
not issued with the n uthOrity Of the Duma.
for in hat case il should have been pre-
sented TO the Duma by groups of its mem
bers. remodelled by a special committee,
and then distributed 10 the Deputies
Deputy Nabokofr explained that he had
at first desired to include the question
Of full political amnesty in the address
without subdividing the principle accord
ing to its different aspects, and then to
indicate in a special resolution the bases
on which it was desirable that amnesty
should be granted. The Duma had, how
ever. included a demand for an amnesty
in the address, treating the subject in full
detail and thus removing the necessity
for a special su p~plementary resolution.
He had himself drafted such a resolution,
and this had beer distributed TO the MEM
bers, but merely as material for discussion
and not TO form part of the section of the
dealing with an amnesty. The
resolution was not regarded as having been
submitted for Reconsideration of the Duma.
The amnesty question, therefore, did not
give rise to fresh debate in the Duma to-day,
discussion of the subject being OBJ
viously distasteful TO a majority of the
house.
LONDON, May ga despatch to the
from Odessa says that all
in southern Russia have re-
ceived Instructions from So Petersburg
to furnish as promptly as possible lists
Of all the political prisoners. This has
raised hope that amnesty will be promul-
gated on May 81, the anniversary Of the
Cars coronation.

GERMAN ART SHOW IN LONDON.
To Better Relations Between the Countries
Secret Of Royal Academy Judges.
Special Gable Despatch to THR SUN.

Special Gable Despatch 10 The SUN.
LONDON, May PA representative ex-
hibition OF modern German art, under the
auspices OF a committee of high p~ersonages,
will be opened here by Princess Christian
on May "a. II has been organized In reoog-
milton OF the fact that works OF British
artists have for many years often been
bought for German national collections,
and also, although this is not avowed, in
connection with the growing movement
for the betterment of the relations betwee n
Great Britain and Germany.
An inaugural banquet at the Savoy Hotel
tonight was attended by many lenders in
art, literature and society. Mr.. Herkomer
in responding to a toast to art revealed a
secret. He said that the Royal Academy
when considering works Of art for exhibit
tion now judges foreign works separately
from British works, owing to the fact that
formerly many works Of foreign famous
q rtists were inadvertently rejected.
Bernard Shaw. responding to a toast to
the drama, said he was often visited by
Germans, who talked with great freedom
and friendiiness in their own language.
When they paused he advanced the only
German word he knew, ausgezeiohnet, I"
leading them to believe that he knew German
perfectly. He considered himself more of a
German playwright than an English one, be-
cause several Of his best plays we're per-
formed regularly in Berlin, but not yet in
England. He hoped in the course of a score
of years that somebody would tell the
English people they were good. for they
would not believe it until they were told.
Mr.. Shaw paid a high tribute to German
music as the, source Of his inspiration, He
had been waiting all his life, he said, for an
opportunity to make known his debt to
Garp,ap art.

LONDON, May 22.-May dew face baths
and other complexion specifics are being
advocated in the newspapers. A skin
physician points out that ordinary dis
titled water is better than dew or rain.
There lie at least one danger in the use OF
dew, although it may not occur once in a
million times. This is the accidental COM
munication Of tetanns germs to an abrasion
Of the face, A few drops of benzoin added
to distilled water makes an unequalled
face wash. The idea Of placing elder
blooms In a ever as a beautifer Of the
complexion is, according to the doctor,
ridiculous, although the extract Of elder
flowers properly prepared can be used,
II the water contains carbonate Of lime
or other harmful salts, borax is better,

A word with you MIR. Cole: Select
a man Of your own choice for chair
man of your state committee; select
your own secretary; every member of
the committee should be your friend.
You are really the only nominee in
terested. Your colleagues on the
ticket will have virtually no opposi-
ton. You will have to bear the
brunt of the battle. The mud-batter-
les of the opposition will be trained on
you. Do not put a lukewarm. sup
porter on your committee to please
any one. If you cannot get an active,
fighting committee of your friends, men
who will be true to you under any and
all circumstances, you had better con-
duct your own campaign. God help
the candidate who, in the interest of
"harmony," is obliged to accept
knockers and traitors for campaiqn
managers.

Some time ago negro street
prophet predicted that Madison, Wis.,,
would sink out of existence and its
site be overhowed by the waters of the
surrounding lakes on June II. So
confidently did the inhabitants believe
this niger that on June l6 hundreds
of them left the city and hundreds
more rented launches and boats for
use in the impending disaster. The
ministers issued handbills and the
mayor a proclamation denying the
truth of the words of the prophet. but
the people refused to be pacifed and
fled from the city in terror. It is in
deed passing strange that the inhabit.
ants of this city, who are thoroughly
Americanized and enlightened, should
give credence to the predictions of a
nomadic negro preacher. .....

YOUNG DOES NOT NEED IT.

Attorney General Young is an effec-
tive public speaker. Gov. johnson
would be greatly pleased if, by dem
ocratic Endorsement, Mr.. Young could
be silenced in the campaign. Hence
one of Frank Days staff reporters
asserts, "the democrats have publicly
announced that they will indorse At
torney General Young" Mr.. Young
does not stand in need of democratic
Endorsement. Such an Endorsement
would not add five hundred votes to
his majority. But Gov. johnson will
need votes, and if several hundred of
Mr.. Young's friends could be jollied
into voting for the democratic nomi-
nee for governor the Endorsement
would be paying investment for Mr..
Johnson.
Gov. Johnson's friendship for Mr..
Young is assumed. Cant and hypoc-
risy is the governors principal stock
in trade. In his opening speech in
Minneapolis on Sept. oath, 1904, Gov.
Johnson, referring to the republican
state convention, said:
sit nominated for attorney general
the one man in the state of Minnesota
who contributed most to the defeat of
the jacobson four per cent gross
earnings tax bill in the senate of 1899,
and who, as chairman of the Judiciary
committee of that senate, submitted
and championed a report which de-
clared that the present law was ter
ritorial contract, that the legislature
had no right to change that contract,
that the bill was unconstitutional,
that the tax could not be collected by
law if the amendment was adopted.
"Mr. Young was the leader of the
senate opposition to the bill. He
voted against it and the measure was
defeated that session by a single vote,
the final vote standing 30 for and 81
against the proposition to increase
the gross earnings tax from three to
four per cent. What situation!'

IN IMAGINARY SPEECH and QUERY

IN I1L4GIN4RY SPEECH and QUERY.
It does not require very lively
stretch of the Imagination to listen to
Gov. johnson talking in this strain
next fall: "Had the republicans nom
mated that grand commoner, that
watchdog of the state treasury, that
tried and true friend of the people,
Hon. J. F. Jacobson of Lac qui Parle
county, in all human probability 1
would not have been a candidate for
reelection. 1 am free to confess that
my chances of winning against the
little Norwegian giant would have
been extremely slender. Mr.. Jacob
son and myself stand for the same
things in state politics. We have
much in common. But the plundering
lumber barons, the gigantic steel trust
and the corporate interests generally
conspired to defeat the friend of the
people in the Duluth convention, etc..
etc." Then we can imagine some one
in the audience propounding this
query to Prince John: "Mr. Jacob
sons term as member of the board
of control expired after you became
governor; that he was eminently quail
fled to serve on that important board
is admitted by all; will you please ex-
plain why you failed to reappoint him,
but appointed in his stead a mere
politician?" We await the willy Prince
Johns explanation.

The most peculiar ordinance on rec
ord is perhaps that which the village
of Ulen is about to repeal. The Union
of that place speaks of it as follows:
1.-THE council will repeal the ordinance

permit the building of brick and steel
buildings inside the aforesaid limits.
Under the conditions of the old one
no buildings of any kind were allowed

1t is declared upon authority that
should congress send a measure to
President Roosevelt providing for the
construction of a sea-level canal
veto it. We believe the president is
wrong in his advocacy of a lock
canal, and the greatest engineers of

presidents choice would be better
than no canal, and the public is will
ing to let Mr.. Roosevelt have his way
providing this continual controversy
on lock or no lock is forever termin-
ated thereby.

AS the result of conference between
President Roosevelt, Secretary Hitch.
cock and Senator Spooner, the latter
will introduce a joint resolution in
the senate authorizing the president to
withdraw from settlement all public
lands containing coal or oil. This
measure, which will be introduced for
the purpose Of protecting the Ameri-
can people in the event of another
coal strike, and which is conception
of President Roosevelt, is of such vast
to the nation that it should
be readily adopted by congress.
