One old historian tells us that "Bent. Franklin has put a chime of little bells on the walls of his house so that they catch the lightning and ring during a storm" So he had sometimes during the night from the heavens above him an echo of the applause which his neighbors begrudged!

make one wish that that question might have been solved in the way half suggested some time ago by Rep resentative Sullivan. He evinced q disposition to Inquire into what would be the effect if Congressman were paid according to their services. He did not pursue the subject, but what was said In the Senate concerning the cases of Senator Morgan and the late Sena- tor Hoar shows that if Sullivan had he would not have lacked for illustrative material.
 Sullivan thought some men. in such a case, would get $1.000 and others 320,000. Taking these figures as the maximum and minimum under the Sul livan system. there is no doubt that Mr. Morgan would get every cent of the maximum. The old Senator works every day from morning to night in a way that might furnish models not only for clock watching clerks and soi- dering office boys. but for the most hustling of business men, and even for the most strenuous of Presidents.

others in the Hughes boom.
While it is being admitted without
much division that the Republican
Presidential candidate who carries
the State of New York must have the
support of Governor Hughes, it is al
so admitted that even the Governor,
if he were nominated, would perhaps
fail to carry the State unless Roose-
welt said Hughes suited him.
Thus, for the present at least, the
most interesting phase OF the Repub-
lican struggle IS lodged in New York.
While New England is turning to
Hughes, with assurances of support,
Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine
and a prospect of Connecticut and
Rhode Island joining in, and Massa-
chusetts the battle-ground between
the Taft and anti-Taft factions, the
belief that many give Hughes support
in order to damage Roosevelt will in
eyitably have the effect of injuring
Hughes's availability. ~.Isa

The Observation-Disclosures Situation.


A Republican situation is rapidly
coming about in New York, according
to politicians who have carefully in
quired into party matters, which
might make the State doubtful for
Roosevelt, Taft or Hughes. The
friends of the President and of the
Governor are rapidly maneuvering
the party into a situation where the
outcome of the next State convention
will be regarded either as a Roose-
welt or a Hughes defeat.
Thus far there is no open war be-
tween the President and the Cover
nor. Mr. Roosevelt would, no doubt,
like to see the New York delegates for
Taft. On the other hand, State pride
is at work and many would like to
see the Governor get the delegates

There are a great many tempting

Among the most popular of these are
Social Tea Biscuit.
These are small, slightly sweeten-

sally-for afternoon tea-with cream
and ices-for luncheon or supper
with dessert-or as a nibble at any
time of day-that a few boxes on

They are almost a delicious cake in
flavor, but crisp and crackly, this
crispness and flavor being perfectly
preserved by the protecting package,
which excludes all dust and moist

clean. The package is very pleasing
and artistic, so designed that the So

the box. This is the most attractive
way to serve them and the right way
to get their perfect flavor.

Demand For Him Swelling.

AS matters stand, the number of
Republicans who refuse to consider
anybody but Mr.. Roosevelt for the
standard-bearer next year is con-
stantly increasing. The President
and all his friends believed that the
demand for him would die out. They
expressed the opinion late in June
that this would occur in four months.
Nearly three months have passed, and
the demand for the denomination of
the President continues just as strong
as ever. Reports received from the
Far West are that the Republicans,
and Democrats as well, refuse to con-
slider anyone else in the running but
Roosevelt. Republican members of
Congress, without regard to section,
want the President to reconsider his
refusal to run because they say he
will aid them in their districts more
than any other possible nominee.
With the exception of Senator Curtis,
of Kansas, who is the manager of the
Taft boom in that State, all Republi-
can congressman who have been in
Washington this month say that the
Republican convention will renomi-
nate Mr.. Roosevelt and endeavOr to
force him to run again.

Taft And The Labor Vote.

AS for Secretary Taft, his last
words before sailing for the Philip
pines on Friday indicated that he re-
garded President RooseveIt's nomina-
ton as utterly out of the question, ac-
cepted the Presidents withdrawal as
final and Will continue to impress the
fact on the public that he is seeking
the nomination as a friend of the
Washington administration. His
views on the subject of the injunc-
ton which he expressed in an inter-
view are regarded as a direct chal-
lenge to the American Federation of
Labor, which he opposed so vigorously
in the campaign last year.
1t is realized by the Taft managers
that they have much at stake in the
outcome of the Cleveland city cleo
ton, and that the defeat of Represen-
tative Burton, one of the Taft man
ayers in the State of Ohio, would be
heralded as a backset for the Secre-
tary of War. But Mr.. Taft is a daring
politician He very well knows that
the inevitable effect of his speech in
the Ohio campaign of 1905, when he
attacked machine rule, caused the
overthrow of the Cox organization in
Cincinnati and the defeat of Herrick,
the Republican candidate for Cover
nor. In the same daring spirit he has
challenged all the forces of Foraker
and Tom" Johnson in Cleveland, and
staked much on the outcome of that
municipal contest.

THE LATEST POLITICAL GOSSIP

WASHINGTON, Sept is. (SpeciaD
Here is a piece of news that ought
to be interesting to those who are
now engaged in attacking all the
moves and the motives of President
Roosevelt There is only one posi-
BILE contingency under which the
President would become a candidate
for re-election-that is a continuance
of the assaults that are being made
on him by financial influences that
are displeased with his policies.
Some of these men, and the news
papers that speak for them, are hint
ing that the President is adhering to
his declaration not to be a candidate
for the Presidency again only be-
cause he realizes that he cannot be
renominated and that if he was re-
nominated he could not be reelected
That sort of talk, if persisted in long
enough, in the opinion of some of the
most intimate friends of the Presi-
dent, will force him into the fight
The constant repetition of stories
that the President has lost his inau-
ence; that the country is turning
from his policies; that is turning
out of office because of his loss of
popularity, is said by friends of the
administration to be the surest way
of getting Mr.. Roosevelt into the con-
test of 1908.

They Think Taft Out OF 1t.

They say that they fear that the eff
fort to nominate Secretary Taft will
end in failure and that the Ohio situa-
ton is such that Taft will not appeal
to the convention. They say that the
expected failure of the President to
nominate Mr.. Taft will render it al
most impossible for him to transfer
his support to any other candidate;
that if he will not take it Hughes is
likely to be the choice and that would
be risky experiment, because then
the New York Governor would be
running as an anti-Administration
nominee.
New York continues to be the most
important factor in the Presidential
problem of both political parties. AL
though the balance of power is gen
orally declared to have gone the
Middle West, since the increase of
representation brought about under
the census of 1900, there are few po-
litical leaders who will assent to the
proposition that it is safe to enter on
any political campaign on the assup-
ton that New York with it's 80 cleo
torial votes, is not a pivotal State.

Mayors Court Busy Monday Morning.

Business looked up lively in the
mayors court Monday morning, as a
result of which the city treasury is the
gamer to the extent of $500. Edward
Louviere plead guilty to fighting and
was fined SIS. Alec LogniOn on the
same charge, caught So. Alec Chre-
chon, thoroughbred black, was found
guilty Of rolling the bones for coin OF
the realm on Sunday morning and was
separated from ten spot. He was
followed in quick succession by AlciCe
Vital, VIM. Curtis and Walter Cbro-
mier, each of whom were charged with
the same offense. All three plead not
guilty and were promptly found guilty
as charged, upon the evidence of two
witnesses. They were assessed ten
each, or ten days. Fortunately for them
and the city, each was able to dig up
the rocks, so are now at liberty.
