The specific charge against him was
that he received $500 per month for
five months from the Ratio Grain and
Securities Company Of st. Louis for
trying to get the postofFice department

He was convicted on two counts, and

to three months in Jail and to pay a

Mr.; Bryan and
the Presidency.

The belief is becoming general that
william Jennings Bryan viii be the
Democratic nominee for the presi-
dency in 1908, not because Of any in
clination Of his to force himself upon
ne party, but because the people, al
last coming to a full realization OF
his character, ability and statesman,
shin. win demand that he again enter
the political field to battle for the
rights Of the masses.
The Bryan Of today is far more
powerful as a political factor than the
Bryan Of 1896 and 1900, and it is ex
tremely doubtful II the Republican
patty could nominate a man who would
be able 70 defeat him. Certainly Mr.
Fairbanks, Secretary Taft, OF Secre
tary Root could not do Il, especially in
view Of the fact that the G. o. p. bar
rel win not be so well filed during
future campaigns as in the past, when
the trusts, insurance companies and
other large interests were mulcted
20 raise gigantic slush funds which
were expended lavishly TO influence
the voter, OF purchase votes direct
where such procedure was possible.
With Fairbanks, Root and Taft elm
mated from consideration the only
svilable presidential candidate in the
Republican party is Theodore RoOse
welt who, although he has repeatedly
expressed the determination to retire
at the end Of his present term, might
be induced to offer himself as a lamb
for the slaughter. And slaughter Il
would probably be, as Mr.. Roosevelt's
strongest claim to popularity is based
upon the very things that Mr.. Bryan
has all along stood for. Roosevelt
using Mr.. Bryan's well known con
victions for campaign thunder, would
cut q sorTy figure when pitted against
the man who has all along stood for
the very doctrines which the Republt
can party was forced to finally adopt
and upon which 1t now bases Its
claims for popularity.
Bryan and Roosevelt are the logi
cal candidates and, IL both are nomi
mated when the smoke of battle clears
away, the gifted Nebraskan will be
disclosed a victor.

ways and means to bring education in
the most comfortable and convenient
manner to the masses, might well pay
some degree Of attention TO this essen

who is a moral factor toward keeping
the jails and poor houses empty and
a force toward the unlifting of hui
manity. Otherwise public education
is but the howl Of the demagogue and
hasn't leg to stand upon. But how
can it accomplish its legitimate pur-
pose unless it trains, cultivates and
develops the moral sense as we'll as
the mental acumen?
We fear the anarchist-in the &C
cepted meaning of the term-yet we
know the anarchist it not without this
mental training we. call education.
On the contrary, his mental faculties
are usually well developed it is the
undeveloped moral sense, the untrain-
ed sense Of duty to the social whole,
that renders him dangerous. Seldom,
too, is the swindler and the formidable
criminal found to be without present-
day education. Indeed, it is his edu,
cation that renders him formidable
Therefore, We may say with truth that
public education is not measuring to
the perfect standard Of its justifica
ton, nor is it likely to meet this stan
dard as long as the prime essential Of
duty and the moral sense is made sc
conspicuously secondary to menta
training as to virtually be neglected

experiment in this direction has not
yet proceeded far enough to allow OF
any deductions. 1t is believed, now
ever, that the results will be most
gratifying. Minnows are the fish be-
lug put In the ponds there and 0OOO OF
these have already been placed IN

A park without water would not be
in every sense of the word park. Yet
there are those who would be willing
to sacrificed all the Audubon Park Ia
goons and the pleasures they afford II
the mosquito nuisance could be got rid
of.
Around the screened windows OF
houses in the Sixth District for some
time past the mosquitoes haye in tie
evening lowered in swarms as thick
as bees seeking q new hive.
it has also been discovered that in
the daytime the favorite place for
these mosquitoes to hide is under the
floors Of houses. Most RESIDENCES are
provided with lattice work Enclosures
and the large, cool, dark space beneath
the lower floor is an ideal place for the
mosquito to sleep in the day time. One
olJiAen says ne recently investigated
beneath the floor of his home and
found that he mosquitoes hidden
there were so numerous that when he
mOleSted them they swarmed up and
ia, rly took his breath away.
Therefore it would seem another
matter worthy of investigation is now
to destroy the mosquitoes beneath the
houses. If these could all be destroy
ed there would in a short time doubt
less be a very great diminution in the
number and perhaps in this way the
determination so HIucn to De u~oi- ~
would be greatly assisted.

Review of the
Burton Case.

The case Of Senator Burton, Of Kan

nection with the notorious RialtO
Grain and Securities Company, Of St
Louis. is now before the Committee on
Privileges and Elections Of the United
states senate and viii probably be re
ported to the senate from that body
within the next few days. In this con,
uection the following review Of the
case, from The Savannah News, is in,
teresting:
The senate has directed its Com.
mittee on Privilege and Elections To
examine into the legal effect Of the
decision Of the United States Supreme
Court in the case Of Senator Burton
of Kansas, and 70 report as soon as
possible its recommendations as To
what action, If any, should be taken
by the senate. The impression seems
10 be that the senator's seat will be de-
clared vacant, If, in, fact, he isn't ex
PEELED.

court TO make an application for that
purpose, and there is no doubt that II

an application. It is not considered
probable, however. that Il will be
granted. But the application cannoI
be heard before October. since the
court viii adjourn in few DAYS, until
the October term. The chances are
therefore that no action viii be taken
by the senate at this session. II Is
however, regarded as a fOregone con,

Embarrassing.

A funny story is going the rounds
in which the chief actors were one
of the judges of the high court and
a well known barrister. During the
hearing of a case the judge left his
seat TO look for law book and for
few minutes was hidden by the
screen. Just as he disappeared
from view the barrister hurried into
court and, seeing the vacant chair,
remarked in loud tone, with char
acteristic testiness:
"What! Is the old fool gone to
luncheon?"
To his ehagrin the judge popped
his head around the screen and,
with a smile that was childlike and
bland, replied:

IT ONDON, March 3.-While digging
on some land near French Park,
County Roscommon, Ireland, the
other day, laborer discovered a cav
ern with an arched roof about six feet
in depth and from this a narrow pass
age led to an old castle about quar-

passage was well built; some of the
walls bear traces of inscriptions, and
number Of skeletons and bones were
found, together with quantity Of
metal, which proved to be armor and
weapons, evidently Of great antiquity.
An old legend in connection with this
runs toathe effect that ages ago the re-
mains Of one Of the most powerful of
the Connaught clans took refuge in this
castle after defeat in battle and being
driven into the passage it was closed
up at either end by their foes and the
warriors were thus left to their death.

Houston, Texas, March 3.-Former
Governor James Stephen Hogg died to-

Governor Hogg was born near Rusk,
Texas, March "a, 1851. He was reared
on a farm and learned to read and
write at night after his work was done.
He managed, however, to get a COM

clerk in store. Not liking the work,
he next learned the printers trade, and
while still youth, became active in
politics. He was only 20 when he was
elected road overseer, and two years
later he was made a justice Of the
peace. Soon afterward he was elected
to the legislature, and from 1878 until
