Bill Will be Epochal.

This affirmative assertion the bill,
which will be known as the admin
istration bill, will make. 1t will be
epochal in character, and mark the
longest stride forward yet taken by the
government in the interest of the
whole people in rate matters.
The railways resent this invasion Of
their long unquestioned privilege. 1t
means a limitation of their powers,
possibly a reduction of their revenues,
certainly a reduction of their abso-
lutte power for harm. The presence
of such a law on the statute books
would be sufficient to earn for the
president the hostility of nearly every
railway man of influence in the coun-
try The passage of that bill will at
once strike from the list of his sup
porters nearly every man who is in
terested in railway management or
railway earnings, and there are enough
of such men to affect public sentiment
powerfully.
While the president is thus arraying
the railway power against himself, he
is preparing, by the moderation which
he is exhibiting, SO far as other feat
ures of the railway bill are concerned,
to invite the open and bitter opposi-
ton of a very large class of the peo-
pie generally, of the shipping public,
the great cities, are radical in their
demands and will not be satisfied vita
any moderate law.

Bingham Demands Salute.

NEW YORK, Jan. 12.-General
Theodore Bingham, police commission
er, surprised police headquarters this
morning by taking quiet stroll about
the building instead of going direct to
his office He soon met Policeman
Matthew Mccoy, VINO gave the COM
missioner the customary salute in the
department, a sort Of nondescript any,
old thing. The general almost snorted
at the burlesque salute and stopped
Mccoy.
Il want you to learn the army sa-
Lutte" said the general. Nothing like
that here"
The general then illustrated the
proper salute and Mccoy followed his
example and saluted properly. During
his stroll the commissioner told sew
eral other policemen the same thing
and made it plain that the army salute
must be used hereafter in the depart
ment.

Cincinnati's Lid Is On,

CINCINNATI, Jan. 12.-For the first
time in twenty years the lid is on here.
Mayor Demsey. following a commune
cation from the Ministerial Alliance
law enforcement committee, has Or
dered Chief of Police Milliken to close
every saloon at midnight, and stop
gambling using every police power,
smashing in the doors with axes if
necessary. The order is an absolute
one, and all the prominent downtown
saloons have agreed to obey it, The
last drink is to be sold at ten minutes
before midnight and the bartenders
are to be out at the stroke of II, with
the doors locked and blinds up. DEM
sey has made no order regarding
Sunday closing, but it is generally
thought that Governor Pattison will
order it.

THE SENATORIAL PRIMARIES
PRESSING PREFERENCE
TODAY.

HENDERSON, Tenn, Jan. 12.-The
senatorial primaries are held today in
the twenty-fifth senatorial district
which comprises the counties Madison,
Chester and Henderson, The situation
is rather interesting in this district.
SeceraI prominent democrats have
been suggested to oppose the nominal
ton of Hon. T. w. Pope of Madison
county. Pope represented this district
in the last legislature and the temper
ance element was not pleased with mis-
record and is, therefore, strongly OPP
posed to his return to the senate.
Among the prominent democrats men
toned to contest his nomination is
Hon. j. D. Johnson who made bril-
liant record for himself in favor of
the extension of the Adams law. The
result of the primaries is awaited with
considerable interest. A strong vote
is expected.

PEORIA SCHOOL MAN SHOWN BY
INVESTIGATION TO BE A
PRINCE OF SWlNDLERS.
Everett Auditing Committee Will Pre-
sent Scathins Report Censuring
the School Board.

CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-Startling dis
closures will be made in a report on
the defalcation Of former Superin-
tendent of Schools Newton c. Dough-
erty. which will be presented to the
Peoria school board tonight. The
school man will be Shown to have been
one of the greatest swindlers the
world has ever known. The report,
which is being prepared by the Everett
Audit company, embraces the records
of the last seven years, and will show
total shortage of more than 100000
in that time This is more than the
widest conjecture previously had made
the steal for the whole twenty-five
years of Dougnerty's trusteeship.
The auditors still are at work on
the books and from a preliminary sur
vey of the whole task, it is shown that
the shortage for eighteen years will
exceed s1,O0O,OOO.
Bank Responsible.
1t mas been disclosed by members of
the investigating committee that not
only will the report of the audit COM
mittee scathingly censure the mem
bers of the present and the past scnool
boards for their neglect of duty, but
will declare boldly that the liquidated
Peoria National bank is responsible
for the loss to the school fund.
This charge against the bank is
based upon the fact that the pecula-
tons were carried out by DOugherty
by means of forged and fictitious
school scrip, which was cashed by the
bank of which Dougherty was pres
ident. The scrip was cashed without
proper Endorsement. The report will
assert the criminal liability of the bank
officials.
News of this trend of the investiga-
ton has produced CONSERVATION in
Peoria financial circles.
Dividends Stopped.
When the auditors first discovered
conclusive proof of the banks respon-
sibility, court action was taken imme-
diately to stop the payment of further
dividends by the receiver. The order
was not executed, however, until 80
per cent of the claims had been paid.
If it is finally established that the bank
owes the school board the amount of
have to be withdrawn and the conse-
quence will be that the banks affairs
will be tied up in the courts for sew
eral years.
The report, which is being rapidly
completed, will be read in the open
meeting Of the school board. One of
the conclusions which will be drawn
by the author is that, in all the TWEEN
ty-five years of Dougnerty's official
connection with the public schools of
Peoria, the accounts of the school
board never received proper auditing.
In this respect the members of the
board in past years and the members
of the finance committee will be
charged with neglect of their public
trust

The Physical Exercise Fad.

So many Of our athletic games and
the incentive to pursue them sedulous.
ly are imported from England that it is
somewhat unusual to have the notion
that regular health exercise Is neces-
sary discredited on the other side of
Mail, who has had athletic training and
is worker, takes issue with those ex.
perts who insist that regular exercise
and practice are essential to playing
good game or to the maintenance of
health. He says that it is possible to
De fit for q game-and for another
game after ton Saturday afternoon
or any other time without putting in
several hours Of exercise to get in trim
and also to keep up increasingly the
daily stint Of work. OF course it all
depends upon the man or the woman
whether daily exercise is necessary
To quote:
If the individual Is below the normal in
certain respects, then appropriate exer-
cises will be a help. II the individual is
beyond the normal In certain respects
say with a cast iron bicepS and chest of
imposing SiZe-even then appropriate eX-
erciSeS may be help; for instance. to
bring the ltheness, the quickness and the
repose up to the normal. But if the indi-
vidual is near normal, then I do not be-
lieve in the indiscriminate advice to grind
for some half hour every day. I believe
that there may be a better way-a pleas
anter and cheaper and more sensible way.
The writer began his experiments as
a we'll trained athlete. He left off all
exercise except that entailed by his
daily routine Of working. dressing,
walking to bis business place, etc., and
he found that he could play his game
as we'll as ever and stay at it as long,
that he could work twelve or thirteen
hours day without any games, with
out any developers or dumbbells and
without any loss of physical fitness for
games or work. Moreover, he ate and
drank whatever he felt inclined to and
always had a good appetite.
1t is presumptuous for one individual
to lay down health rules for all-how
often to battle, how much water to
drink, how to breathe, and SO on-as
this writer declares. Each one must
take his own road to reach a nor
NAL condition in respect Of his organs,
his nerves and muscles. When that
state is reached it is easy to test the
diet and the amount Of exercise needed |
to maintain fitness for the usual strain.
In the beginning or until normal health
is established regular physical drill and |
practice may be necessary-that is,
simply training for health, just as diet
ing or medication may be used to build
up powers which are wanting Beyond
that persistence in practice may not
alone cause waste of time, but actual
ly prove harmful by using up energy
or by overdeveloping powers that can
not be given healthy activity. A ply
sique too strenuous for it's sphere, like
a brain too big for it's work. ]

PRESIDENT KNOWS THE DANGER
OF SITUATION BUT AC-
cEPTs THE CHALLENGE.
DoIIiver- Hepburn Bill Is Now Viewed
as Measure Acceptable to the
Administration.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. H.
President Roosevelt has expressed a
willingness to be sacrificed personally
provided he can secure the enactment
of a rate bill, moderate in character
which will make an important advance
toward control over the carrying COM
panies, now the greatest corporate
power this country ever has known.
He realizes the danger to himself
that the situation presents, and yet, he
accepts the challenge manfully and, if
there should be need for it, will sur
render his immense popularity in order
to accomplish the desired result
The time has come wnen, as he says
in his last message, the government
must assert it's rights over the rail-
roads in the matter of controlling
rates This power is negatively as
serted in the present interstate COM
merce law, but that is not sufficient.
The time has now come when the
government must decide whether it, or
private interests, are to control the
great avenues of transportation, and
no negative assertion of the federal
right is sufficient to hold the rail-
ways in check There must be affirm
alive assertion.
