Bureau Of Corporations.

Investigations have furnished reliable
information regarding the conduct and
business of corporations engaged in
interstate and foreign commerce. The
facts presented as to the relation Of
such CORPORATIONS to the states and the
INABILITY Of the states to effectually
curb the improper exercise of corporate
powers lead inevitably to the con.
clusion1 that the federal government
must directly regulate and control such
corporations.
3 .Of the methods suggested for ex-
erclslng this power the federal fran
e !1 plan seems, the most feasible.
This plan is simply to require the
greater industrial corporations to OBJ

ment if they are to engage in inter-
state and foreign commerce. There
would be no interference with the DOW
ers Of state over the creation of
corporations nor their actions wholly
within the state. Under a. license the
federal government should require, as
license, a full disclosure Of all facts
necessary to show the ownership, prop
critics, financial condition and manage
ment of the corporation; furthermore,
the corporation g records should be
open to proper Inspections annual re-
ports should be required; and, finally,
the government should have the power
to revoke the license, and prevent the
continuation Of engaging in Interstate
and foreign commerce in the event the
CORPORATION fails in its obligations to-
ward the government ~ or is convicted
OF violating federal laws.

FtIn addition to the preparation and
completion Of many reports and bulle-
tins, which cover the publication or
the last fiscal year, the force of the
bureau Of labor has been engaged in
the collection and preparation Of data
for a number of future reports. The
annual report for 1906 will relate to

the center Of perception. We Of course
know nothing as to the nature Of the
relation Of brain cells 10 preeepts and

there must be a relation. The re-
searches Of Hammerberg and Thomson
show that the number Of cells in the

will show how innnmeyable such i'm

Even without reading. the resident of

rHADDeus STEVENS.
His Sense Of Hunor and His Unesten-
tntIous CllnrIty.

Eia Sense OF Humor and His Unosten-
tntious Charity.
Many a joke is credited to Thnddcus
Stevens. who led the Republicans in
congress during the civil war and the
troublocs times after.
One Of the very lscerest Of his jests,
which is undou5tedly authentic. is so
commonplace in sound that one might
easily be forgiven for falling to take
IN It's meaning in his last days David
Reese and John Chauncey. two em-
ployees Of the house Of representatives,
nsed TO carry him in large armchair
from his lodgings across the public
grounds. up the broad stairs Of the
capitol.
"Who." he said to them one day, evil.
6e 50 good to me and bear me in their
strong arms when you two mighty men
are goneT
Such a question implied nothing short
Of a sense OF intellectual Immortality.
When he had taken TO his bed for the
last time visitor told him he was look

"Oh. John" wes the quick reply. "it
Is not my appearance. bHt my disap-
pearanco. That troubles me"
one day member Of the house Of
REPRESENTATIVES,. who was noted for his
uncertain course on all questions and
who confessed that he never investigat
ed a point under discussion without
finding himself a nedtral. asked fol
leave of absence.
"NIr. Speaker" said Stevens. Il dc
not rise to object. but to suggest thai
the honorable member need not ash
this favor. for he can easily pair OF
with hlmself!'
One anecdote always remembered II
connection With Stevens illustrates hll
unostentatious charity. A beggar wo
