SOME Sb0TH SPEAKING.

Some of the high financiers are speaking soothly nowadays. Thus l.. H. Hartman says: ''We must rebuild on solid ground. The good old methods of the forefathers were the best"
 As Mr. Hartman has been accused of not sticking very closely to the good old methods of the forefathers this ut terance may mean that he has learned something. Whether he has or has not, he has told the truth about the good old methods of some of the forefath- CTS. There were forefathers who didn't deal with their own and other folks money as the new crowd have been doing. So far as the good old methods included honest banking, honest rail- road management, honest insurance, etc, etc, they were the best. The general opinion seems to be that there should be revival of them in quarters where they have been considered slow and out-of-date. It will be very en- couraging. if MT. Hartman uses his great influence toward bringing about such a revival.

undertaken the orderly rather than the disorderly methods will prevail.
 Aside from the fact that the eoun- try needs to digest the legislation which has already been enacted into law there is plenty of work for the President and congress to do along conventional lines. To quote again from the Springfield Republican: If he should secure the passage of but half of what he has thus urged he would still place a remarkable amount .of accomplished legislation to the cred- it of his administration. The question of citizenship for the Porto Ricans, free trade for the Filipinos and finally the new question of inaugurating the inland waterway system-these and auctions like them will be sufficient to occupy the attention of congress at its coming session" Should President Roosevelt confne himself to these topics the country would feel the relief at once and values would begin to seek their normal level

4 MISSOURI INCIDENT

Gertrude Atherton's recent assertion that any woman can marry any man she wants to has been accepted as an indication that woman is much more compelling than man, but a Missouri incident indicates that man may be able to marry any woman he wants to. A youth living in St Joseph in that State advertised for wife the other day and in forty-eight hours got 217 replies. answered eighty-one of them in person, found the woman that he thought would suit him, and went to the recorders office to get the license. He had forgotten the lady's name when the recorder called for it, and rushed out and in a reasonably short time returned with it, got a license and was married to her.
 We call Sister Athorton's attention to this episode Two hundred and sev- enteen beautiful and desirable ladies is rather sizable number for one young man to pick from.
