American Commonwealth.

James Bryce. who is soon to be the
British Ambassador to this country,
in his American Commonwealth was
very free with his criticism of our form
of government and of the power Of the
President. He seemed TO look forward
to such president as we now have,
for he said:
''In quiet times the power of the
President is not great. He has less
influence on legislation-that is to say
his individual yolitlon makes less
difference to the course legislation
takes-than the Speaker of the House
of Representatives
''The Senate, though it can keep the
President from settling anything, can
not keep him from unsettling every
thing. He, or rather his Secretary Of
State, retains an unfettered initiative
by means of which ne may embrol the
country abroad or excite a passion at
home
ANA especially wren he states, that
the larger a community becomes, the
less does it seem to respect an assem-
bly,, the more is it attracted by an in
dividual man. A bold President who
knew himself - be supported by a
majority in the country, might be
tempted to override the law and de-
prive the minority of the protection
which the law affords it. He might be
a tyrant. not against the masses, but
with the Masses
There is no gainsaying that the ex-
ceptional conditions looked forward to
by Mr.. Bryce have in measure come
to pass, but he evidently overlooked
the unwritten law against third term
TO president which Washington de-
cnned and Grant was refused and Presi-
dent Roosevelt declares he does not de-
sire.

Mining Frauds.

A great many magazines and news
pares contain alluring advertisements
Of Western mining companies. For the
most part, these advertisements make
promises that no honest and expreienc-
ed miner would dare make. As a rule.
they describe prospects which only one
mine out of every 800 fulfls. In some
instances there is behind these adver-
tisements not so much as a hole in the
ground; in other old petered out claims
bought for song. used only in parting
hard working people from their surplus
cash.
The mines that are valuable are not
for sale by their owners. If they
should be for sale they would be offer
ed privately and the transaction would
not be known to the public until it was
closed. The mines that are offered to
the public are not worth so much as the
price of their stock. They are doomed
simply to be unloaded on an unsuspect-
ing public. If any holders of such
stock do not believe this statement, let
them offer to sell back to the com
panies the stock that they hold, even
at discount. e.
1t might be well for a lot Of people
to have the rude awakening that such
a proposition would result in. 1t would
certainly convince them that when they
started on the road to "get rich quick"
they made very big mistake.

Roosevelt in spite of his refusal to run.
The State of Indiana has been flooded
with letters from the League, ASKING
the voters to join the League and ex-
press their determination to elect dele
gates favorable to the third term. This
invasion of the Fairbanks stronghold
is being resented by his friends, and
Mayor Bookwalter, of Indianapolis, and
others have sent replies saying. thev
are not for President Roosevelt for .
third term, but for Mr.. Fairbanks
Our Republican friends seem to no
much split up and are divided into two
hostile factions, who are quite as much
opposed to each other as they are to the
Democrats. In fact. many Republicans
in both factions declare they would
sooner see a Democratic President
elected than the success of their op-
ponents in their own party. Democrats
can view these Republican disagree
ments with equanimity and should learn
the lesson that to succeed they must
ignore factions in their own party and
unite on the essential truths of Der4-
ocracy with the determination to suA
port any good man who shall be nomi-
mated. '.Get together should be the
slogan, leaving the Republicans to fight
about third terms and the numerous
'isms" that party cannot free itself
from.

More Trouble In Store.

1t is much to be feared that there is
lots of trouble in store for US in Cuba
when the time comes for another elec-
ton. but Congress will evidently re-
fuse to NEEDLE in the matter. The
United States has already expended
over $4,000 900 in taking over tbe
government of Cuba and if another adj
ministration is set up the chances are
the outs" will make trouble for the
ms, or the ms will harass the busi
ness interests. But as Mr.. Roosevelt
has committed US to his policy, we
have to stand for it and await results !

HIS LEG WAS CRUSHED
Manila Boy Badly injured While Play
Under the Cars.

The youngest son of Jacob Gessman
met with quite an accident here
Monday afternoon. With couple of
other small boys he was playing in
the railroad yards, and as he was
crawling under some cars, the engine
backed against them crushing the
boys's leg off just above the ankle.
and MASKING the hee! on the other
foot. The other two boys escaped
uninjured. The Gessman boy was
taken to the hospital where his leg
was amputated between the knee and
ankle. 1t is hoped the other foot
may be saved.
This is indeed a bad accident for
this young boy. who is only fourteen
years old. We hope it will be a
warning to other boys to stay away
from the tracks.

OUR TWO GIRLS
Miss Meyers Writes How She and
Miss Norris Reached Detroit.

You say "to tell you all about it,"
how hard it is to boil such a good
time as we have had down into let
ter. To begin with we had the
weather man on our side. if he had
been 'blood relation" he could not
have behaved better. 1t was cool but
not so cool that we wished for warmer
clothes, in fact it was "just right. :"
We left home Tuesday night. Our
friends were so glad to be rid of US that
they turned out en- masse. In my fam
lily even Happy showed up. Chicago
did not seem so dirty to me as usual
though we got there rather too early to
expect her to have her face washed.
As we sat in the bus riding to the
Wabash depot we had to wait for the
draw bridge and it interested me to
see how men and women rushed as
near as they dared to the edge to save q
second of time when the bridge swung
back into place. The rush of Chicago
is interesting if you are only high and
dry on top of bus. Will. told us
when we got to the Wabash depot to
turn to our right. walk block and
then five or six more and we would
get to State street. This was SO
"ducid lucid" that we followed it
with splendid results. We walked
miles in department stores. The life
and bargain hunters in the cheap
stores interested me more than my
elegant lady shopping at Marshall
Fields but we enjoyed every bit of it.
We lunched at Marshall Fields and
enjoyed both the rest and the lunch.
Afterward we went to the art gallery.
and the library. A car marked to
Sans Souci allured us and out we
went-No mountain climbing or bump
ing the bumps or shooting the shutes
for me, thank you. You have your
choice OF route you can ride on your
head or hang on by your eyebrows but a
number of years use of my feet has

nor run away. We resisted the
efforts of a number of we'll meaning
but too loud talking gentlemen to

listened to the music which was good
and free. You see though on pleasure
we are bent we have a frugal mind.
We got back just as the stores on
State street were closing and the peo-
pie. rushing out for dinner and rest
and amusement, wore another kind of
face from the one we had seen in
the morning. Next morning. after good
night on the sleeper. found US in
Detroit. We went at once to see
about state room in the Eastern
states but we found that all the COM

over until tomorrow night. Its one
thing to stay over a night because
you want to. and another to stay be-
cause you have to. and Efiie and l cen

have to say.

Mr.. Meyer. speaking TO your CORE

opinion during The Rus5O-Japanese war,
