Grow, Not Servant, o Thief.

When Simeon Kiesler struck the
last blow with his AK that felled to
the ground a chestnut tree ON his
farm, near Richfield, he was aston
tshed to hear the jingling sound of
metal, and then came a shower of
knives, forks and spoons. He started
to investigate after he had picked up
nine articles, all black from age and
exposure. In the trees branches he
found a huge crows nest, and from
that the articles had fallen. Kiesler
carried them into the kitchen of the
farmhouse and showed them to his
mother, who is eighty years old, and
who polished them and found that
they were all solid silver. Then she
remembered that they had been stolen

VOTES FOR DIsEsTABLIsHMENT.
Disendowment in England and Wales
Approved by 1913 to 80.

London.-A resolution in favor OF
the disestablishment and disendow-
ment of the Church in both England
and Wales was adopted by 1913 votes
to 80 in the House of Commons.
This resolution does not commit the
Government, but the debate upon it
WIS interesting on account of a state
ment made by Augustine Birrell, the
Chief Secretary for Ireland. Mr.. Bir-
rell said he failed to see how the
continuance of the established Church
could be justified. The Church had
done the State no good, and the State
had done the Church only harm.
Personally, Mr. Birrell said, he be-
lieved that disestablishment, far
from harming the Church as a spir-
itual body, would restore it to a po-
sition of spiritual authority through
out the land. The Governments
hands, however, were already too full
to assume any responsibility in the
matter.
This is the first time in it's history
that the House of Commons has
adopted such a resolution. The only
previous time a similar resolution
was pressed to a division was in May,
1871, and it was then rejected by a
large majority.

Albany, N. Y.-Immense powers

street and steam railways, express

panies and gas and electric corpora
lions are lodged in the two public SER
vice commissions created in the Pub
lie Utilities act drafted along the
lines of the recommendation of Gov
ernor Hughes by Senator Page, of
New York City, and Assemblyman
Merritt, of st. Lawrence County.
There is provided one commission
for New York City and. one for the
remainder of the State. Each is to be
composed of five members. Each
member is to receive $4,000 a year
The New York City commission is
vested with all the powers of the
present Rapid Transit Commission
and with many additional ones, in
Guiding sweeping powers over all the
railroads and common carriers op-
Grating exclusively in that district
and over those portions of other rail-
roads inside the lines of the city and
also over all the gas and electric cor
p~orations.
Both passenger fares and freight
rates may be regulated by the two
commissions in their respective juris-
dictions. The new commissions have
power to compel adequate service.
Mergers I prohibited unless con-
sented to by the commissions. Pres
ent holding of public service corpora
ton stock by stock companies is not
prohibited, but no new holding com
panies are to be permitted.
The penalties for disobeying the
mandates of the commissions range
from $1,000 to $4,000 fines, while
officers and employees are to be guilty
OF a misdemeanor. Private suits for
damages by injured parties also may
be maintained. Shippers, as we'll as
the corporation employees may be ad-
judged guilty of misdemeanors for
violating any parts of the act.
h worst fears of the corporations
are realized in the details of the bill,
and they are arranging for a battle
that will be memorable in the history
of the State Capitol. Many great
fights have been waged by the cor
poration5 here for many years, but
those contests will be pigmies along
side the colossal conflict that is now
impending.
Governor Hughes went over the
bill, is familiar with every section of
it, and it has his approval. The cor
porations do not know just yet how
to fight the Governor. He is the un-
certain element in the calculations
they have made. 1t is pointed out
that all the other States are watching
New York's lead in the war to make
the corporations treat the public
right, and that if this State is success
full there will be similar successful
fights against the corporations in all
the other States. So it is limited that
public corporations outside the EN-
pire State will find it worth their
while to join in the fight here and
crush out the movement in it's incep-
ton,

RUSSIAN MONARCH|STSL LOSE
The Duma Elected a Democratic
President by a Heavy Vote
Riot Follows Dispersal of Body,
Troops Charging the People
Determined Struggle is Due.

st. Petersburg, Russia.-Feodore
Golovine, Constitutional Democrat,
president of the Moscow provincial
zemstvo, was elected president of the
lower house of the Duma. He re-
ceived 331 votes on the first ballot.
The candidate of the Right (the Gov
eminent party ,Khomiakoff, received
only ninety-one votes.
An enormous crowd gathered out
side the Taurida Palace, where the
lower house of the Duma sits, to
greet the members of the new Duma
as they arrived. Cheers, mingled
with cries of Amnesty" were raised
as the deputies entered the palace,
the approaches to which were guard
ed by police and troops. Finally the
troops were ordered to dispense the
crowd.
There was a brief riot after the
Duma had dispersed. Two of the
revolutionaries received dangerous
sabre wounds. The news spread and
revolutionaries, students and work
men gathered in thousands near the
university.
M. Golubeff, vice-president of the
council of the empire, formally
opened the Duma. The Secretary of
State read the imperial ukase which
convened the assembly. The Social
Democrats did not attend the open
ing ceremony, but afterward took
the oath. The budget estimates for
1907 were introduced by Finance
Minister Kokovtsoff. 1t was accom-
panied by a memorandum which
placed the var expenditures up to
January 1 of this year at ~s1,299,000,-
900, and showed that the revenue
during 1906 exceeded the expendi-
lures by more than $15,000,0O0.
The first test vote vas taken on
the final ratification of the presidents
election. The oppositional parties
combined their votes and cast 356
for the Constitutional Democrat Co.
lovine, whom the Laborites and Peas
ants had previously agreed to sup
port. The Government parties cast
102 votes for Khomiakoff.
The Duma separated in good or
der, the parties of the Left going
into conference to arrange how to
force the question of the abolition of
summary court martials and the
granting of amnesty to political Of
tenders.
This experience confirms the belief
that since the dissolution of the first
Duma the Russian people have
learned more than the Government.

Washington, D. C.-Great surprise
was o~ccasioned by the declaration of
Senator John C. Spooner that he had
sent his resignation as United States
Senator from Wisconsin to the Gov
ernor of his State, to take effect on
May l.. With remarkable frankness
Spooner, in his letter of resignation,
admits that he gives up the honorable
position of Senator to gain wealth
for himself, supposedly in the prae-
tice of law in behalf of the corpora
lions and railroads for which he has
been a leading exponent during his
entire service in the highest legisla-
tive chamber.
Beginning as a lobbyist for the
railroads in Madison, Wisconsin's
capital, Spooner never wandered far
from the line of their interests. 1t
is known also that since he came to
the Senate he drew the articles of
incorporation of the United States
Steel Company, or steel Trust" and
has been an agent of other corporate
interests.
