CHILDREN AND MOTHERS

Strong Plea Made for Contributions to
Private Pilgrimages to Fresh

Summer outings for the needy children
and mothers was discussed before the
Christian Endeavor Union at the Y. NJ

to present the subject was Wallace
Hatch, committee secretary of the As
sociated Charities. and in charge Of this
wOT.-
Explanation was made by Mr.. Hatch
that real need existed. and that
number of citizens, discovering this, had
banded themselves into an organizat ton
capable of meeting il. There are hun

Prospective Bad Manners.

Some weeks ago there was a red
hot municipal campaign in Omaha,
and the reform party, casting about
for man who could do them the
most good, sent TO Washington an
urgent request for Senator La Fol
lette to come out and make them
just one speech. He couldn't go.
Last week the story got afioat in
Iowa that La Toilette was coming
out there to make some speeches in
aid of Governor Cumins. the reform
governor, candidate for renomina-
ton, who is fighting the corpora
tiOns in Iowa's delegation in Con-
gress- The possibility of La Toilette
mixing in the fight at home caused
an outbreak of political fits in Iowa
circles in Washington.
Now it comes from New JERSEY
that the reformers there have book
ed the Wisconsin man for a weeks
campaigning in that home of the
octopus, and there is huge excite
ment in trustdom. Considering that
he has been read out of the Re-
publican party so many times late
ly, we don't see why his views
should worry that party unless
there is a horrible suspicion that he
will refuse to stay read out. And
that would be exceeding bad man
ners.

Hard TO Please Everybody.

"Gum-Shoe Bill'' Stone, the senior
Senator from Missouri, finds his
lchief delight these days in criticising
the President, whom he takes Occa-
sion to call "a pine lath painted to
resemble iron" That is as it may be,
although the people do not accept
the Stone dictum by any means.
But the honorable Senator goes
further into detail. He declared in
debate the other day that the reso-
luton giving the President authori-
ty TO go outside the United States
to buy supplies for the Panama
canal, in case bids in the United
States are extortionate and un-
reasonable, was useless. ''No one
can doubt he said that the Presi-
dent viii buy practically all canal
materials in America, no matter
what the difference in prices here
and abroad may be-" This, of course,
being a contemplate suggestion
that Roosevelt is owned by the
trusts.
Thus is seen the difficulty of
pleasing everybody. The President
is expected by American manufact-
urers and American labor to buy
supplies here where their interests
will. be advanced thereby. Yet if he
shows any desire to go into the
world markets and buy cheaper,
statesmen of the 'Gum-Shoe BiII'
type affect to believe that that de-
sire is fictitious.
The Executive can be trusted to
purchase Panama canal supplies in
such a way as to best enhance the
interests of the people as a whole,
subject, of course, to limitations
imposed by Congress. Other things
being equal, he would naturally buy
in the home markets, but he will
not tolerate imposition. The compar-
fsOn to pine lath" will not disturb
him or affect his judgment at all.

WAKEFIELD SILENT
ON SENATORSHIP
Own Ambitions Likely to
Influence Appointment of
GOrnan'S Successor.

Governor Warfeld. OF Maryland. is
confronted with the duty of naming a
Senator from his State, who will have
almost two years 10 serve II is widely
believed that the duty will be discharged
so soon after the funeral OF the late
Senator German that the new Senator
will likely appear in his seat before
adjournment Of the present session Of
Congress.
There is no doubt Governor Warfcld
himself has ambitions to be Senator.
1t is widely assumed that he will make
the appointment with a view TO strength
ening his own chances in the contest
before the Legislature for the long term.
for which the Legislature of 1908 must
choose a Senator The governor. how
ever, declares he has given the subject
no consideration whatever. and will re-
fuse TO discuss il till after the funeral
of Senator German.
a long 3ist Of availebles is under dis
cussion. 1t includes former Governors
Jackson and Smith, former Senator
Whyte. who, though over eighty years
old, is hearty and Vigorous; Gen. L.
Victor Baughman. Blair Lee, of Mont
gomery county; Congressman Gill. Col
Edward Lloyd, twice president of the
State senate; Judge Ferdinand VII
Hams, of Allegany county, and Bernard
Garter.
Next to the SCnatOrship the question
of new State leader of the Democracy
is attracting much interest. but the
leadership is bound to be largely infiu-
enced by the Senatorial appointment.
and therefore cannot be so intelligently
discussed until after the bent of the
governors mind in the ma tier of the
Senatorial appointment is known

BANKS RETURN MILLIONS.
YET FRISCO NEEDS FUNDS
Chairman Phelan, of Relief Committee,
Sends Surprising Message OF
Appeal From Coast.

NEW YORK, June 5.-James D.
Phelan, chairman Of the relief com
mittee at san Francisco. IN a telegram
TO Hermann Oelrichs, stated that the
city is in immediate need of funds.
Coming on the heels Of the action
Of san Francisco banks last week, in
starting TO return the S30.OOC.0 900 bor-
rowed from New York bankers, the
message caused a surprise. The Frisco
banks in the last few days have sent
back more than $5.O0O.0O and it is
said on Wall Street that the balance is
expected in a few weeks

Reform Within the PARTY.

Pennsylvania has struck one of
the hollows in the hill of progress.
Her old Republican leaders have
linked arms with the wavering re-
formers, and both together have
made ring about the stanch re-
formers who happen TO be Repub-
icans, and in that ring the old
Keystone State is likely to trip. 1t
is the old, old story of reform
within the party"
At the head of this reform" IS
United States Senator Boise Pen
rose 1t was he who succeeded to the
control of the Quay machine. He
was the head of the party which
permitted the Durham-A .NicboI
combine to commit the worst muni-
cipaI contract robbing which even
American cities have ever known.
II was in his office that Durham.
McNichol and the lesser lights of
the gas steal convened TO draw
plans for fighting the aroused pub
lie opposition 10 the theft of about
S5o,OOO,oOO of the peoples money.
With him are the State "3epubIi-
cam leaders. They are not Republi-
cans at all. They are in politics as
Il money-mal1ing business, and the
way 10 make money in Pennsylvania
politics is to be ostensibIy EepubIi-
can In Louisville these same men
would be Democrats and States
Fighters. In Boston they would be
Democrats and tariff revisionists.
in New York they could join either
party and keep ahead of the game.
In Pennsylvania they have to call
themselves Republicans.
They have a platform and candi-
dates of course. The latter are not
yet nominated. but they have been
named-by Penrose. Inc former has
been outlined, according to the dis
patches it has been approved by
the President, and II is TO be adopt-
ed tomorrow at Harrisburg by a
convention of independent, self-re-
liant. courageous men of the party
OF Lincoln, who could not change a
phrase in it TO save their lives. As
was to be expected, it is a platform
ito get on by, not to ride on"
Wherefore the issue is squarely

The End of the Funnel.

The Statehood bill has come from
conference, and there is to be a
fight on it. The Foraker following,
which is opposed TO any provision
whatever for the admission of Ari-
zOna and New Mexico, is organizing
for an effort TO reject the report
and force this provision entirely out
of the measure.
The rate bill has come from con-
ference, and there is a determined
fight on the conference report in the
Senate. The same group of leaders
who won the great victory by which
the Allison amendments were incor-
pOrated into the measure are now
determined TO reject this conference
report. They have discovered that
the conference did some original
leeislating.
The Senate meat inspection meas
IRE has developed apparently the
most bitter fight of the whole ses-
sion, and its fate at the hands of a
hostile House management and an
unresponsive House is in great
doubt.
The Philippine tariff measure is
evidently smothered in the Senate
committee, and the Santo Domingo
and Isle of Pines treaties are almost
certain to fail of ratification.
Thus the big business of the ses-
sion is jammed in the small end of
the funnel. Everything is crowded
into the last DAYS of a session of
which everybody is wearied and for
whose end everybody is anxious. 1t
is a great opportunity for manipu-
lation and trades. Back of all these
features of the greater legislative
program lies the Wickersham Fed
eral Judgeship case, before the
Senate in its executive capacity.
Nothing in years has aroused such
intensity of feeling in the executive
sessions as this case. and trades and
influences otherwise unexpIainable
are accounted for by reference to
it.
The rate bill is to be modified
somewhat if possible, and the mod
Ifications viii be directed at re-
moval of some of the teeth that
have been set into it by the confer
ence and in the Senate. The meat
inspection bill is to be fixed as the
packers would have tiff the House
leadership can defeat the President.
And 50 on. The last days of this
session viii be momeutous ones.
They will produce a huge volume of
campaign material-for somebody.
