charity and generosity, very often Of
fer an example which it would be we'll
If other religious bodies would emu
late. 1t follows that the founder of
this very large and constantly grow
ing denomination should be held as
one entirely worthy of fair play and
the utmost courtesy.
Setting aside any and all other
claims upon the respect and honour of
mankind, the fact that Mrs. Mary
Baker Eddy, the founder Of Christian
Science. is woman should secure for
her immunity from persecution and the
further fact that she is nearly eight
six years old would, in the estimation
OF any self-respecting person, be am
ply sufficient to protect her from per-
sonal annoyance Of any sort or kind.
Such considerations, potent and all
sufficient with any other class of be-
ings on the face OF the earth, hav.
been powerless to restrain the press
of the United States, be it said to its
shame, from invading the privacy of
her life, from inventing sensational
stories regarding her and from har-
assing, or seeking to harass, her with
their unwelcome attentions.
What manner of man is it that
would deliberately annoy a harmless,
quit, peaceable lady, eighty-siX years
old, who has done nothing to invite
publicity or deserve attack? What sort
of a whelp is it that would invent
preposterous story and put it in print
to the effect that she was in a dying
condition but, refusing to admit it, was
fraudulently misleading the public by
substituting dummy, rugged out to
look like herself. on her daily ride?
Has newspaper human nature fallen
so low that it would take for its vic
tim a gentle old lady and drag her
drought the mire of sensational
journalism, merely to crafty its lust
for news?
"The spectacle, as reported in the
press dispatches, of "half a score of
newspaper representatives assembling
in Concord for the purpose of running
down this defenseless lady and fore
ing her to appear before them in order
to set at rest the story of her death,
is such shameful exhibition of ruth
less impudence and vulgar, inexcus-
able curiosity that it is a wonder any
newspaper would have the courage t.
describe it.
1t has not been claimed that Mrs.
Eddy will live forever. We do not
understand that she possesses the gift
of Immortality or that any of her fol-
lowers expects or demands it of her
as proof of her sincerity or the truth
of her teachings. Having survived
four-score years and having, during
the course of her long life, been able
to point out the way the following of
which has undoubtedly brought peace
of mind and spiritual content to mil
lions of people, it would seem but fair
and decent that she should be suffered
to pass the remainder of her days in
peace and quiet, free from obnoxious
attentions which must be both danger
Gus and repugnant. Her belief and
simple answers to the half-score of in
quisitors who had the effrontery to
demand from her a demonstration in
the flesh Of her ability to walk and
talk and go riding, were in themselves
a rebuke which would have been
keenly felt by any save the most
thick-skinned.

They do not ask that he be Il candi-

term. They merely ask that he serve
them when they have elected him. He
is too patriotic to refuse. The club
which has been formed to urge his
candidacy is composed of the masses
of the people, Its members are found
in the humber walks of life as we'll
as in the professions. 1t has already
extended to every state in the union,
and by the time th. next convention
assemblies the enthusiasm for Roose-
welt will have swept the weak and sell
fish opposition Of those who oppose

object, into disgrace and con-
tumely. The supporters of such
puny aspirants as Leslie NJ Shaw and
men of like calliber will be classed
with those who court national disaster

July OF that year. Congress recogniz-
ed the need of curbing the trusts at
this early date, and the law which
bore the name of its author, was in
introduced in the upper branch of the
national legislature by John Sherman
when he was member of that body
from Ohio. But from the time the law
was enacted until Roosevelt became
president it remained a dead
letter on the statute books of the ma
ton, and the country was told a
thousand times that it was ineffec-
tive and could not be enforced. There
has been no change in the law yet it
is now the instrument by which the
trusts are made not only to obey the
law but to stand in fear and trembling
at the bar of justice because of it.
What has wrought this change? Sim
ply the fact that the present execu-
tive is man who enforces, through
the proper subordinate officials, the
laws which congress has enacted The
law was there, but it needed man
to enforce it. Since it was written
into the statutes of the nation three
presidents have fillee the position. One
of these a democrat. But during the
two years of the Harrison admins
tration, the four years of Cleveland's
and the nearly five years of McKinley's
there were fewer cases prosecuted
under this law thaA have been pros
ecuted under it during the five years
of Roosevelt's administration.
Demagogs have claimed that con-
gress refused to enact the law which
would enable the nation to control
the trusts. Roosevelt has proven that
congress enacted the law fifteen years
ago and that its failure was only due
to the fact that it had not been enforc-
ed. 1t can thus be seen that without
president who has the manhood to en-
force them, all the laws that could be
enacted by congress in a century
would be worthless. The people
understand that it is Roosevelt who
has given the nation relief from the
oppression of the trusts.
1t is the people who are demanding
of him that he accept another term.

lMPUDENCE REBUKED.

1t is regrettabie fact that the
press of the country has attempted
to make sensational capital out of
the story of the failing health of Mrs.
Mary Baker Eddy, the founder of the
Christian Science church. 1t makes
no difference whether we agree with
the tenets of the faith which she
teaches or not, We must admit that this
belief is entitled to the same respect
and consideration as is paid any other
religious belief or faith which tends
to the uplifting of mankind. That
the principles of the religion which
she teaches is in harmony with the
highest laws of morality and is the
accepted faith of thousands of men
and women in every part of the land
whose lives and acts are the highest
examples of Christianity can not be
questioned. 1t is for this reason that
she is entitled to the respect and re-
verence which is the due of every
person who has been instrumental in
advancing the faith of the Nazarine
When an attempt was made to convert
the generation and affection which the
followers of this faith have for its
founder into sensational newspaper
stories it was merely their just de-
serts that they met with dignified
though firm rebuke. The following
from the Bellman, a prominent
secular journal, is expressive of the
merits of the case, and should be en-
dorsed by every lover of fairness in
journalism. 1t says:
Christian Science, as religion, may
or may not appeal to us, and its teach
ings are properly open to reasonable
and rational discussion. AS followed
by millions of excellent people, as
honest, as sincere and as wholly
worthy of esteem as the millions who
differ from them, it is entitled to res
pectful treatment; moreover, the con-
gregations of this church, by their
practical works, their devotion, zeal,

poets sensation and spectacular legis-
lation will likely be disappointed.
There will be conservatism and in
telligence and judgment in the con-
sideration and enactment of laws no
matter which party or faction is in
power, for while promises are easily
made, when it comes to the making
of laws but few men who are elected
to the law-making bodies will do that
which will injure the state or it's peo--
Dle.

THAT ROOSEVELT CLUB.

Several months ago when the Eve
ming Times announced its intention
of supporting the candidacy of Presi-
dent Roosevelt for another term as
chief executive of the nation, and
stated that it believed that the con-
ditions would be such that he would
be compelled by his respect for the
demands of the people to forego his
statement that he would not again be
candidate, and serve the nation, its
statements were ridiculed by certain
of the press which. lacking the fore
sight to lead, is always trailing and
attempting to make its position secure
by opposing that which is progressive.
The Times has contended that
Roosevelt would be the next candi-
date of the republican party for the
presidency 1t has advanced some of
the reasons why this is the best and
safest course for the party to pursue.
1t is therefore gratifying to know
that league has been formed which
proposes to work from this time till
the next national convention for the
denomination Of the president. That
it will accomplish the desired end
can not be doubted when it is remem-
bered that more has been accomplish
ed by him in the few years he has
filled the position of chief executive
than was accomplished during many
times the same number of years under
other executives.

all the trust prosecutions have been
conducted, was enacted in 1890, it hav-

convenes a week from today is one of

justly so or not, the people have
been led to expect great things from

ton along lines which are radical.
But it will be found that the work
will not be much different in it's final
results from that of other legislatures
of the state. Hundreds of bills will
be introduced which will have their
resting place in the committee ar
chives. Out of the hundreds will be
selected few which are needed and
these will receive conservative atten-
ton and will be acted on in exactly

away, ashamed and disguised with
their unmanly errand. Instead, they

perience before public that could not
help but feel contempt and scorn for
such an exhibition of brutality. Com

BIG BANK CLOSES COORS
Largest Institution in Kansas
City Suspends.

Kansas City, Mo-, Dec. 6.-The Ma
tional Bank of Commerce of Kansas
City, Mo, one of the largest in the
West, with deposits of S16,000,000, has
closed it's doors and was taken in
charge by a national bank examiner
on an order OF the comptroller of the
currency. Later two small outlying
banks in which the Commerce bank
was interested, the Stock Yards Bank
of Commerce and the Union Avenue
Bank of Commerce, also closed.
The failure of these banks had been
predicted for several days and but
little excitement followed the an.
nouncement, although crowds of de-
positors gathered about the doors of
these institutions. The officials of the
Commerce bank, which is affiliated
with many banks here and in other
parts of the Southwest, express the
belief that none of them will be Sc
riously affected. The failure is laid
to the withdrawal by outside banks
within the past few months of $751;
100000 of deposits They expect to
reopen soon and say depositors will be
paid in full.
Other local banks were not serious
ly affected. and at several banks
heavy deposits were made.
