Mr.. Gaines,s Triumph.

On June 20 the Hon. JOHN WESLEY
GAINES Of Tennessee sorrowfully re-
corded his opinion that the nation was
doomed and that the ~wreckage would
hardly be worth a junkman's attention
unless there was a change. The coun-
try heard his message. In every city
and hamlet, In every home and shop,
the word went around that unless we
reformed, JOHN WESLEY GAINES would
not answer for the country's future.
What was the result2
There could be but one. Mr.. GAINES
had spoken. 1t was for the people to
act. That they did with such vigor and
effect that three days later Mr.. GAINES,
after a careful diagnosis Of Industrial,
commercial, moral, social and political
conditions, was able to render a highly
gratifying and encouraging report.
MI. Chairman. ! am happy TO see the great
moral wave that Is sweeping all over this country.
There Is reform going on In everything throughout
the United States. In oil OF the States the people
are getting into the saddle. and In another year
the man with unclean hands will not be permitted
to hold once and the unclean thing will not be per-
mitted. and the guilty ones will be published.
whether rich or poor
The reward Of a good mar is the con-
seriousness Of duty done. Mr.. GAINES
knows he has done his duty and he secs
the people rallying gladly to his STAN
dard. His Is the moral wave that sweeps
the country, his the honor Of saving a
nation that has been too slow to follow
and obey it's prophets. In less than
seventy-two hours JOHN WESLEY GAINES
turned the United States from the path
Of destruction to the ways Of peace, hap
piness and prosperity.
1t was a great achievement. Mr..
GAINES deserves all credit. The United
States has never produced another states
man like Tennessee's noblest son.

Appeals, in the Molineux case decision. ios New York
(page $50, says:
The statutes Of 1880 and 1888 provide that the
comparison of a disputed writing may be made
with any writing proved to the satisfaction OF the
court to be genuine. . Since thcse statutes
were designed to amplity and broaden the common
law rule by permitting the use OF genuine writings
as standards OF eompa rison. even when they are
not competent or relevant for other purposes, IL
must be assumed that the language prescribing the
manner In which the genuineness Of such writings
Is to be established was carefully and deliberately
chosen by the Legislature"
II the Court OF Appeals has decided that the
statutes were designed 10 rnplify and broaden

Eastward the Star Of Yachting.

In 1887 the famous old sloop yacht
Volunteer crossed the bows Of the chal-
lenger for the Americas Cup, the Thistle,
on the first tack, while the two were
beating to windward in a race over the
old course of the New York Yacht Club.
The struggle was decided then and there,
before the two yachts had sailed from
Owls Head, off Bay Ridge, as far as
the Narrows.
1t was a knowledge OF the tides in the
harbor which enabled the sailing master
of the Volunteer to outwind the Thistle
right at the start, and English newspapers
DIT that time made the just comment
that the course was not fair. 1t took
the conservative New York Yacht Club
some time to convince itself of the just
ness of the complaint, but it finally ruled
out the old course and sailed its cup races
outside Sandy Hook.
The club has abandoned the inside
course, as it was called, for good and all.
Even its own annual regatta, which used
to be one Of the sights Of New York
harbor and the bay, is now sailed or
Long Island Sound, where the tricks Of
the tide are far less numerous than they
are off Stapleton, and where the main
tidal current moves with more delibera-
ton than that Of the Narrows.
Away back in it's infancy the New
York Yacht Club started and finished
its regattas of the Elysian Fields Of
Hoboken. In something over half a
century the club has made such progress
that it has dropped New York harbor out
of its consideration. When tunnel travel
under the East River becomes an accom-
plished fact we may look to see Glen Cove
adopted as the local anchorage Of the
organization, which will thus move one
more step nearer to its real port Of entry,
Newport.

Farming In Norway.

From ne Bulletin OF the American Geo9rd phteaI
Society.
Think Of a country that has but TAO square miles
OF ~ploughed land! More, Indeed, might be titled

places the Morse farmer has actually carried back

toes. seen in garden patches, planted In rows not
more than twelve or eighteen inches apart, and
covering the ground completely when midsummer
has come.
No agricultural process Is Of more interest than
the having. The dairy Is the stan OF life, and
scythes. like a small sickle or a corn cutter, are
carefully welded over rough and ~unmock
ground where the American farmer would turn
loose his sheep, Yet in the better meadows the
growth Is rank and full; not toll, but soft, thick
and fne, and mating so close that there Is added

Republican Strife in Iowa.

The followers of Governor CUMMINs in
the Republican party are called Pro-
gressives, and the p%artisans Of Editor
PERKINS are known rs S~tandpatters.
The contest for delegates to the State
convention has been marked by so much
heat and rancor that victory will be
dearly won by either faction.
On the face of the returns Governor
CUMMINs has a majority Of pledged dele
he may have to reckon with a State cen
trail committee controlled by his oppo-
nents. A bolt by one side or the other
may be the result Of a struggle on the
floor of the convention. In fact, it is
alre adv being talked about as more than
probable. If the differences between
the Progressives and the Standpatters
related only to the tariff, harmony could
be easily arranged; but the railroad
question looms larger than the tariff,
and as no quarter was given in Wiscon-
sin none is asked or expected in Iowa.
As a matter of fact, the tariff issue
was lost sight of with the entrance into
tllC CdllpdlBh Va iol 'hsN fhNl
of Minnesota and Ex-Governor LARRABEE
of Iowa. 1t is doubtful il any Repub-
lican working for delegates has had any
thing t o say about the tariff for some
time. The strife is all about railroad
regulation and the vested interests Of
the railroads. Governor CUMMINs has
grown more radical in his utterances as
the campaign went on and is now riding
high on the popular tide.
Republican dissension will be Demo-
cratic opportunity. HORACE BoIEs twice
carried Iowa for the Democrats on the
prohibition and tariff issues. Mr.. BoIEs,
it was true, had been a Republican, and he
was a man of great force of character.
The Democratic party has nc such leader
in Iowa to-day, Mr., BoIEs being too old to
sUi &c. Al the last election for Governor
the Republican plurality was 10000, and
President ROOSEVELT carried the State
by 1853, 768. Not even a split in the Re-
publican party and the presence Of two

That the evidence produced on the in
quiry into the Street Cleaning Department
should have caused two Of the five men,
bers Of the Aldermanic committee TO report
in favor Of COMMISSIONS WooDBURY's re-
moval is amazing. The great bulk Of the
testimony given was TO the effect that the
Commissioners work was done effectively
and properly, not more extravagantly than
other municipal departments and public
works generally are managed. The minor
ity Of the committee should be asked how
they reached their conclusions. Their mental
processes would be interesting to examine.

TAFT THE MOST POLITE OF MEN.
Gave His Car Seat to Three Women. Justice
Brewer Tells Yale Men.

New HAVEN, June 26.-At the va e Alumni
meeting to-day Justice Brewer was one Of
the speakers. He began by referring
to the many colored costumes which con-
fronted him, and added: And those GENTLE
men in The striped garb would make us think
perhaps that they had recently retired
from the United States Senate"
Speaking of Secretary Taft he said:
sNow Secretary Taft is the politest man
alive. l heard that recently he arose in
a street car and gave his seat to three
women"
In President Hadley's address his main
suggestion, that Yale ave fewer professors
and pay them better, was received with sur
prise, but with some enthusiasm. He said
rather bluntly:
yale would be better off if one half of the
faculty were to be dropped Il will not say
which half and the pay of the other .corre-
spondingly raised"
President Hadley told a new class room
story Of Prof. Thomas Lounsbury, in an

To THE EDITOR OF TIRE SUN-sir, Noting the
editorial In to .day's SUN upon the recent trip to
Merden OF the Putnam PhalanS. we wish 10 say
that the great mistake made Is the reference TO
the hollow legs" Of that famous organization.
Legs which have stormed the heights OF Quebec
and invaded the domains OF every chief city OF the
Atlantic coast, legs which after the assaults upon
their owners by the best gastronomlc talent OF
the country have always carried them TO their
destination In safety, are substantial legs. and far
from hollow"
The only hollow spot in the Phalanxers Is situ-
atcd just above the belt. and nothing which enters

high up as their heads.

Honorables OF Boston. or the Worcester CONT

csnts necessary to a celebration like the recent one
In Meiiden may get into their legs. but never so
with the Putnam Phalanx. Their legs are solid.
and there is no room in their heads for anything
but the good Yankee brains with which they are
nlled. All honor TO the Putnam Phalanx legs.
which are not built TO run, but are a deuced long
way from hollow. r. NJ. GR1swoLD.
