Germany the Modern Rome.

Let the German people keep lesson
from antiquity before their eyes. Once
before an England and a Germany Of
no less different character have con-
fronted each other They were Car
thage and Rome. And old Rome with
it's policy Of force and power finally
conquered the cash politics of Carthage
and raised itself to the position of the
first power upon earth. We have his
torical example when we say that the
German people must return from the
imitation Of the un-German Carthagin-
ian-British finance policy and must go
back to the Roman German policy Of
power and might. In no other way
can really great Weltpolitik be pro-
NOTED in the hope perhaps Of making
ourselves ultimately the leading peo-
pie in the world-Berlin Grenzboten

HAD TO GET GUARDIAN
John Mikna Needs One Before He Can
Wed-An Obstacles Overcome.

"Cu-Ati ooStdCtcS otcFCOucs
Milwaukee, Sept S.-John Mikna,
clerk living at TAB Fifth avenue, has
obtained permission to be married.
This sounds like an extraordinary
thing for a man to do, but under the
Wisconsin law a man without parents
is placed in a peculiar predicament if
he be under age.
John Mikna was without parents
and without a guardian. He is clerk,
20 years old. These circumstances, I'M
der the law, prevented him from mar
rying without obtaining somebody's
permission. Mary WawZOn, his sweet
heart, was willing, and in this case
it was not the girl who must ask for
leave.
The young clerk hired Harry NJ. Sill
Der to be his guardian in order that
he might have some one to ask
whether he could be united with Miss
Wawzon. He did not ask Mr.. Silber
whether he would say Yes" or "No"
before he hired him, nor did he bring
his prospective bride for inspection. 1t
WAY purely legal ana business
tranSa ctiOn.
Upon position from Mr.. Mikna,
Judge Halsey appointed Mr.. SLIDER
guardian. He required that Mr.. SLIDER
put up a bond of $50, according to law,
that he would properly answer all
questions asked by his charge and
care for such property as the young
man might have until he becomes of
ago.

There are said to be 100000 mi

They are known as transhumantes,

The Washington Post declares
that the Steel Trust has promised
to "sell structural iron in San
Francisco as cheaply as it sells
that product abroad" and adds,
that the bill to refund the tariff
duty has therefore been put to
sleep. With all due Difference to
this exclusive information in the
Post of the condesension and con-
cession of the Steel trust, it il
safe bet that San Francisco will
be lucky if it can buy steel at the
top price here. Why to sell steel
in San Francisco at the same price
it is sold abroad, would defeat the
republican candidates for Congress
in every doubtful district and put
every stand.patter on the defensive
The Post should know that the
protectionists claim that trust pro.
ducts are not sold cheaper abroad
than here.

The Lewiston Tribune in com.

Pettibone case declares ''that for

This is going too far and casts

ONE SIDED JUSTICE.

A federal Judge q few days ago
in sentencing the Burlington Rail-,
road company to pay a fine for
violating the Elkins' law in regard
to rebates, made the statement
that if there was a provision for
imprisonment in the penitentiary,
much more might be accomplished
in the way of securing obedience to
the law on the part Of the railroad
managers. The most amazing fact
in connection with railroads is the
indifference to the laws exhibited
in railroad management, as repeat
eddy testified to by railroad presi-
dents themselves in the last few
months.
This is not as it should be. The
citizen Of small property owes the
law small gratitude for it's protec-
ton. He feele the government
only when summoned to serve up
on jury duty, to pay his annual
quota of taxes or when he is cali.
ed upon to fight the battles Of the
government. He is never the one
to appeal to the police powers Of
the state to protect his property
from attact or destruction. But
the men who own, manage and
control the railroads and who con
duct the great enterprises of this
country owe to the respect for the
law and to the obedience of the
law the protection Of every dollars
worth of property they own. And
yet these people who are the most
deeply interested in the supremacy
of the law are the very men who
openly admit their repeated and
fragrant violations of the law.
OF course, the administration is
largely responsible for their viola
tions of the law, because the ad
ministration has made no effort Il
prosecute. But just as certain al
the swift vengeance of the law
shall fall upon some railroad mag
nate and condemn him to term o
actual imprisonment in the com
mon Jail, the others will desis
from their criminal offenses. They
love money we'll enough to taxi
the chances of losing some in tn
way of fine, in the hope Of max
ing more; but the rich and pros
porous will never subject them
selves to the indignity of persona
imprisonment. The case o
Whitaker Wright, tried lately il
England for obtaining none,

point. Sentenced by the judge T.

grace attaching to common felon
Let us have few criminal con
victions in these United States an
we will have respect for the law il
high quarters where it is now re
garded as a farce. What is needed
is man in the presidential chair
whose election is not contributed
to by money donations from thes
criminal violators of the laws Q
the land, and who has the back
bone and moral courage to enforc
the laws on rich and poor alike.

sHREWD MOVE BY PERKINS
Conventions Called Early to Stop Gov.
ernor Cummins' Speaking Campaign.

SIOUX CITY, IOWA.-Managers of the cam
paign of George D. Perkins of Sioux City
for the republican nomination for governor. have
executed a shrewd move by having early con
~yentions called in counties all over the state
where they fear Governor Cummins may make
an impression by his speaking campaign. In
most Of the state, the organization. is opposed
to- the governor and consequently: it has been
easy for his opponents to select the dates The
governor is now devoting all his time to speak
ing, and. whether" he makes converts or not, is
drawing big crowds everywhere. s Cummins
is without a strong organization, he has every
ing to gain by a long Campaign that will enable
him to get around the state. -
Some Of the early conventions that have been
called by the opponents of Governor Cummins are
as follows: Monona. April 16: Woodbury., April
10; Dickinson, April 81. Emmett, April q; Win
neshiek, April II; Hancock. April Is; Fayette,
April %; Calhoun, April 49,; Cerro Gordo.

In Cerro Gordo and Hancock counties 1t is said
by the Cummins men that the standpatters are
Involving the congressional campaign with the
gubernat ortal campaign. Five candidates are in
the field against Haugen, and the fact that con.

Cummins men to dispute the declaration Of
Senator Gale that the governorship would not
enter into the congressional fight. nj
