In addition to this, all sorts Of de-

bullets of smaller caliber than the pis-

| ooKING FOR TROUBLE.

According to a special dispatch from
Washington to the Chicago Record
Herald printed in this issue. the 7resi-
dent is preparing a special MESA ge on
the Japanese question that viii out
distance anything he has attempted in
the cyclone line. In essence. the mes
sage is expected To assert federal SUI
premacy over the states. not cEiy in
such affairs as the san Francisco school
controversy but in other matters as
well. In the language of the Record
IIeraid'S correspondent, himself 4 close
friend of the administration, the mes
sage will bring to a direct issue the
Capitalization scheme of government,
which is likely to form the climax of
endeavor on the rart' of the Roosevelt
administration"
Such a message might have been an
ticipated the moment an opportunity
arose to excuse it. The president has
gone further in both the theory and
practice of Capitalization than any ex-
ecutive the country has ever known. a
direct descendant in political theory of
the old Federalists, he believes sincere
w in the absolute subordination of state
sovereignty to the federal authority,
not only IN matters of debataole legal
ity. but i'll such affairs as all the au-
thorities heretofore, including the SUI
preme court Of the United States, have
conceded to be exclusively reserved TO
L. . |.
full entertainments on legislative and
judicial functions which he has made
unchallenged he might be expected TO
nush his authority further and assume
rights which have always been denied
the president and the central govern
ment before his regime.
Until the message is known in detail
it would not be fair to anticipate the
extreme limits of its demands: but
Judging by the record it is certain the
president will provoke controversy
far-reaching in Importance and fraught
with possibilities Of great harm. He has
been sustained heretofore by large ma
jOrity of the American people and is

find their approval for whatever he pro-
poses, but signs are not wanting that
his recent course has provoked an inn
patience and growing doubt Of his in
flllibility which may find voice in fall
ure of his most cherished measures at
this session.
With all the great problems rightly
within bis jurisdiction he might better
content himself with q higher regard
for constitutional rights of the states
and save himself the discredit which
will inevitably follow any attempt II
delimit the power of states over their
own local affairs.

state condemn it. but because the law
of the human heart, as soos as that
heart has little ray of light shed upon
it, also condemns it. The lnaa with
more than one wife is fast becoming an
object Of ridicule to Mormon girls The
poor wives themselves are fit objects
of compassion. The bright. independent
young women now coming forward.
and the rank and file of the yoGng men
alike despise 1t. We may say that the
snake Of polygamy among the Latter
day Saints is not only scotcied. but
II has had its day and is now dead or
dying"
Written before the debate on Senator
Shoots case this comment is peculiar
~ apropos. However. it fails TO cover
what thoughtful observers here, both
in and out of the church, regard as the
critical point in all the civil and reli-
gious controversy that has ragged about
the case, and that is the domination of
ecclesiasts in civil and political affairs
Polygamy is dying and doomed, as the
bishop says, but the political activity
Of church officials has never beeen more
marked or pernicioUs than in the last
election in this state So far as the
Democratic party is concerned, its
members have been practically dis
franchised, for the time being. since
their permission to vote for their party
ticket is based on Republican pleasure
So long as such state continues the
controversy will remain unsettled. and
there seems little prospect of it's settle
ment until the church itself institutes
the reform that will give members of
all parties equal rights i'm political af-
fairs.
The Herald has recorded already its
belief that Senator Smoot will retain
his seat He viii be retained because
the legal grounds of attack on him are
aimsy and because the Republican
president and Republican mana gers
are committed TO his cause. But the
retention of his seat will not settle the
whole case, because the conditions I'M
der which he and his friends dominate
the political affairs of Utah are dis
tasteful and intolerable, not only to
-Mormons but TO a very large body
Of Mormons as well.

light directly into electricity. To this
interesting and valuable subject OF in
yestigation Bartoli, an Italian physi.
cist, gave SOME attention In 1881 he
performed an experiment with this
as the object and claimed success.
He arranged a conducting film of sill
yer so that Il could be moved with
very great velocity, the ends of the
film being connected with a galvan.
ometer. The film was then set IN mo-
ton while a bright ray Of sunlight fell
upon IT,
Bartolf claims that when light was
thus allowed to fall on the moving
film small DETECTION was observed.
thus indicating the presence OF a cur
rent Of electricity. He also states
that when the film was at rest there
was no detection; also, upon reversing
the direction OF the motion of the
film, the detection Of the galvanomet-
ter was reversed.
Believing that the confirmation OF
such direct conversion Of the electro
magnetic waves of light into cleo
tricity was Of fundamental Importance.
Dr. Davis constructed a more sensi.
tive apparatus than that OF BarloTi, de-
signed upon somewhat different plan.
The method employed was to place a
thin film of silver on glass plate or
disk "a in Figs H. ND, which was
so thin as tC be translucent The
ends Of this film were connected by
wires (w w running through a hol-
low steel axle (B) TO a very sensitive
galvanometer
The disk carrying the film was then
set in motion. making approximately
200 revolutions second, and sunlight
concentrated upon the film by means
of a powerful lens CX).
In the first experiments performed
some slight denections Of the galyan-
ometer were noticed. but In Later trials
when greater care was taken to avoid
all extraneous causes Of disturbance.
no detection could be Obtained on the
galvanometer, no matter whether the
film was revolving rapidly or was en-
tlrely at rest.
II Is my opinion. however, says Or.
Davis. in view Of my experiments with
the more sensitive instruments now
at the disposal of physicists, and in
view of Bartoli's single experiment
in 1881, that the effect he observed
was In all probability due to outside
electrical disturbances. That light
may be converted into electricity is
no doubt a possibility but theory
seems to indicate that " any effect IS
obtained it Is probably too small to be
measured by any instrument now
known TO science.
