No More Immunity Baths"

| Congress is closing the federal i'm
munity bath house, made so popular
as pleasure resort for trust magnates
| by the much criticised decision OF
Judge j. Otis Humphrey in the pack
ers' case in the Chicago federal court

considerable condemnation Coming

certain things, and the government 5
own system of investigation. securing
of testimony and trial, assured he
trusts immunity. The money kings,
financial monarchs who were the real
conspirators. were made immune by
this decision. Congress and the pres
ident of the United States have re-
yersed the decision of Judge J. Otis
Humphrey. They have taken cogni-
zance of the menace to the people in
this immunity bath" decision, and
have determined that it shall not be
precedent The result is that in a
few days a new law will be upon the
statute books. and by its terms will
limit immunity explicitly TO the actual
person testifying on oath or producing
evidence in obedience to subpoena.
This do-nothing congress has been
forced to take action in this matter.
This immunity bath" bill promises
10 be an important piece of antitrust
Legislation, yet there is little room for
the congress to boast of the action it
has taken in attempt to curb the
trusts This one measure is merely to
remedy a wrong hitherto unsupported
"a measure rather to curb the court
than to curb the trusts. 1t is not
measure which will encourage prose
cution. but which will simplify a GER
tain class of corporation cases when
brought to trial.

deserves credit, yet the credit even for
this one measure belongs essentially

other republican congress will not

ity from prosecution but bring them
before the bar of justice to answer for
the crime of robbing the public, and

ANYBODY to Beat Bryan

ST. Louis Republic: The nomination
by the democrats of William J.. Bryan
for the presidency seeming now the
thing most likely to happen in 1908,
the republicans are hunting around in
every nook and corner of their party to
find a man to beat him. They seem to
have arrived at a condition of per
plexity in which they do not care who
he is so he is somebody.
Secretary Shaw would like to have

A HONEYMOON BEGINNING.

Corinne and | became engaged in

our wedding for the following June.
We did not live in the same city and
could not see each other except every
few weeks. l was not tied down to
business and would have gladly re-
moved my residence to be with her of
tener, but her hard hearted father said
that if 1 did he would withdraw his
consent to our marriage.
We were thus obliged to pass long
days, weeks, months. apart, and the
separation was well nigh unbearable.
In March we fixed the 10th of June for
the day on which to end this agony.
and from the time of settling upon it
at the top of every letter L wrote to
Corinne. morning and evening, I gave
the number of days TO be passed before
the arrival of the happy day. The
number decreased with provoking
slowness. as minutes drag to one look

We were Influenced by this distress

in the st. Lawrence river. on which
was a nicely furnished cesntry house.
There was no way to get to and from
it except by boat, and the nearest land

to spend not only our honeymoon, but
the whole summer, at this place, not
returning till November. There. with
no one to interrupt our continued as
ISOLATION, the happy days would drift
along like the water of the beautiful
river surrounding us.
We were married at my father-in-
laws country place on the Atlantic
coast. A suit of rooms was reserved
for us in case we could be later pre-
vailed upon to spend some time with
the family, but we begged them not to
refrain from inviting other guests on
our account, since a whole summer
spent alone would not be long enough
to make us forget the cruel separation
we had endured.

Ilas been the current belief that Mr..
Root was the man whom the president
has told off for the winner in the next
presidential race.
But the conditions of the running
have changed. BY the latest report
the president is reported to be con-
vinced that the republican candidate
must be dark horse of heavier weight
and fieeter foot than Root. In short,
the scholarly secretary of war is the
properest person to beat Bryan
But Mr.. Taft is an Ohio man, and,
though an eminently good one, the star
of the Ohio man rides not so high in
the armament as it did in the days
when Grant, and Hayes. and Garfield,
and Mckinley and other eminent sons
| of the Buckeye state were almost the
only people worth noticing in Wash
| ington.
In those days to be an Ohio man
was greater than to be king. But
as Virginia ceased to be the only
mother of presidents, so Ohio is no
longer the only breeder Of noble Amer
leans. Colonel Roosevelt, in whom
Senator Chauncey Depew once eX-
pressed pride as d product of Fifth
avenue, looms up in Washington with
an effulgence which eclipses genera
tions of Ohio men.
Already there is enough Ohio repu-
lican opposition TO the Taft idea to put
a crfmp in the new boom. and if these
republicans. wandering in the wilder
ness. should refuse to accept Mr.. Taft
as the Moses to lead them out, what is
to be expected of republicans in the
new northwest who are weary unto
death of the Rooseveltian standpatism
on tariff?
Mr.. Roosevelt and the republican
leaders" will have to try again. Shaw
won't do: Fairbanks won't do; Can
non won't; Root won't, and even the
able Secretary Taft is not the man to
beat Bryan. Who, then. next?
