WORTHY OF IMITATION.

There is Virginia method of doing business
OF a political sort that may be emuated by some
Northern states during the coming campaigns.
Two of the most prominent men in the state senate
are candidates for reelection, and the way their
constituents put them on the rack is interesting
One is vice president of the senate and has been
in that body twenty years. There is no question as
TO his knowledge OF legislative business or as to his
general ability but neither his capacity nor his long
service are going make the road easy for him this
time.
The other candidate has been in the senate
many years. Both, it is claimed, were at the last
session OF the legislature too friendly toward the
railroads. The people of Virginia like those of the
North, have been satisfied for years to pay rea-
sonabe part of the legislators income and have
not asked any questions though the payers of the
other portion always called for strict account
These legislators did not take kindly to a
measure providing for two-cents-a-me fare II
was radical or Socialist who proposed the bill
but the states railroad commission Now the CON
stituents of these two gentlemen are aroused In
fact they forcing the fighting. AS some of them
express IT, they are TO go after" legislators and
other public servants who do not take proper care
of the rights of the people
There is much to this determination "to 90
after that should be examined by the people il,
other states where legislators betray their trusts
There is but one way by which lawmakers can be
made to act for the public good rather than for the
good of the hterests,' and that is by convincing

THE CASE OF THE FARMER.

There will be little inclination among thought
full people to accept true the assertion of a
country Judge in Wisconsin that the rural free de-
livery system is producing startling increase in
insanity, because it deprives farmers and their
families of the excuse of visiting the villages fire.
quently and OF the opportunity to meet and greet
their fellow beings.
1t is, no doubt true that with the delivery of
mail at their door and with the attention to other
commissions which the mail drivers give, neither
the farmer nor his family has any urgent need Of
making many trips from home
Nor is it to be contended that the solitary life
of the farmer and his family does not tend to pro-
duce morbid condition of mind, but the case Of
the agricuturalist is by means hopeless indeed
it isn't even serious
IT, for the moment, the rural free delivery is
depriving him OF the opportunity for getting into
the swirl OF urban activity, there other agencies
at work that before long will more than overcome
and compensate for present difficulties. In every
direction trolley lines extending. Faster even
is the extension of the telephone while the automo-
bile is coming into such general USE even in rural
districts, that no farmer who wishes to be con-
sdered up-to-date afford to be without one
Indeed, with the many means of ready COM
munication now easily within his reach, it will be a
matter of surprise if within short time the farmer
is not threatened with insanity because of too much
rather than too little eommngling with his fellow
men,

'HhYW00D'S Defence
COUNTER CONSPIRACY

Boise, Idaho. June 1l.-Into the further
cross examination OF Harry Orchard yes
terday. counsel for william ID. Haywood
repeatedly threw the suggestion OF great
counter-conspiracy formulated and car
ried out by the enemies OF the Western
Federation OF Miners and indicated de-
termination TO construct their main line
of defence on that ground.
They carried Orchard by slow steps
through the minutest details from the dy-
namiting of the Independence, Col, station
down to the attempt on the life OF Fred
Bradley and his family In San Francisco.
In addition TO a series or particular
attacks on the credibility of the witnes.
and the genral probability OF his stories
and preparing the way for their own tes-
timony in rebuttal, the defence sought to
show that Orchard has a mania for boast
ing of commission of crimes non-existent,
made up of his own mind, and that rs
is testifying under the control and sug-
gestion OF the detective MCFARLAND.
The defence began yesterday by maxi
ing II clear that as far as Orchard knew
Haywood. Meyer and Pettibone had moth
ing to do with the inspiration, planning
and execution OF the Vindicator mine ex-
plosion. and that Haywood and Meyer
had nothing TO do with the planning of
the murder of Detective Gregory.
Passing then to the dynamitng of the
Independence station, the first crime with
which the testimony of Orchard directly
connects Haywood, Moyer and Pettibone,
they endeavor to show that Orchard, in
springing the mine, had purposely sought
TO spare the oncoming train and the non
union men who were expected TO entrain,
and the whole plot was engineered by
agents of mine owners and railway man

who were on strike.
Getting down TO the Bradley crime, t:ie
defence devoted itself largely to the story
OF Orchards attempt TO poison Bradley.

hold, including an infant and the cook.
with whom he had made friends and who
he had accompanied to a theatre.
Orchard swore that while in San Fran
cisco lie repeatedly received money from
Pettibone. who used the name OF Pat
Bone In transmitting IL. In making this
clearer today the defence gave evidence
OF a plan to show that this money was
sent under Petitioners disguised name by
persons plotting against the leader OF the
Western Federation OF Miners.
Orchard denied that mine owners or
railway men had any part In the Inde-
pendence outrage and denied that he had
mania for confessing uncommitted
crimes and denied that he was under the
influence OF Detective Mcfarland. He
showed some spirit In answering many
of Attorney Richardson's questions, but
he held firmly To all OF his first stories
and was calm and certain throughout the
long, trying examination.
Counsel for the state let today's exam
ination take it's course without serious
objection and at the close privately signi-
fed their entire satisfaction. Orchard has
been on the stand five days and he has
nearly two to serve.

CONTRAST IN PRINCIPLES.

he average citizen must, in whatever part OF
tne state he may reside note the contrast in the
principles and methods of the supporters of the
three candidates for United States senator as we'll
as the different motives that appear to actuate the
candidates themselves. OF course it is a great
honor to be United States senator. To represent
in part the industry, wealth and manhood OF Rhode
Island in the upper legislative chamber of the
nation is worthy ambition, if one in seeking the
place gives evidence that his service will be valu-
able and unselhsh.
The nominee of the Democrats and Indepen-
dents, Col. Goddard, is making the present fight
not to further his personal ambition. His
splendid and useful life does not need senatorial
toga to adorn it. for it has been richly clothed with
useful deeds since, as young man, he went will
ing to give all for his state and nation on the field
of battle He has sought public office in
the political mart, and while he would make an able
legislator for the nation, the impulse that has led
him into this peoples crusade is the desire to bring
about such system of representative government
as will render any kind of boss rule impossible
He does not seek vengeance on a boss because
that boss failed deliver the goods but he does
aim TO dethrone, for the benefit of the whole state
both bosses and bossism. Col Goddard believes
that under representative form of government
which they do not enjoy citizens Of Rhode
Island can be depended upon to extirpate the boss
system root and branch He has no wish at all to
see Republican boss supplanted by Democratic
boss, nor one Republican boss supplanted by an
other Some OF the gentlemen who are supporting
the Wetmore purity league in the Republican ranks
are, no doubt, unselhsh but neither they nor the
more active officers of the league seem to rise to
the Importance of the issues involved in the fight
for representative government
There is nothing wrong, so far as their poti-
cal wisdom goes save that their candidate for SEN
ator not elected at the last session of the gen.
eral assembly. The present boss is obnoxious to
the Wetmoreites not because of his vicious prac-
tices but because he failed to deliver the senator
ship for a third term. The league leaders at one
time paid allegiance to another boss and there is no
principle announced in their circular that would
prevent the putting of Mr.. Holden again in the
saddle.
What the Wetmoreites are obviously seeking
is not any measure of real REFORM either within or
without the Republican party, but change of
bosses that will help their persistent candidate to
a third term in the senate. AS has heretofore been
pointed out the whole movement is one of selfish
personal ambition and nothing else.
On the other hand the average citizen we'll
understands that Col. Goddard has no selfish
motive in becoming the peoples standard bearer,
and that his only hope is that he may assist in Sc
curing for Rhode Island that honest and efficient
representative government that has long been un-
known within its borders

The annual financial town meeting oi
the taxpayers of Lincoln was held yes
terday afternoon in Lonsdale hall 1t
voted TO increase the tax rate from sl.10 to
$3.50 on each 500 OF ratable property. An
appropriation OF $1,000 was made for a new

Moderator Alexander Leslie called the
ed moderator. School Committeeman Mar
tin introduced a resolution for an appro-
priation OF s21, 900 for the support of the
public schools, and 1t was adopted.
Some of the taxpayers believed that the
extra cost to the town in building the
state road on Lonsdale avenue should be
taken from the highway appropriation OF
1000. Highway Commissioner Greene de-
scribed the repair work necessary and
stated that II would cost the town about
$1,000 to build six feet of the 20 feet high
way to be constructed by the state.
A resolution 10 devote $500 of the high
way appropriation TO the repair of Union
street, Prospect hill, was referred to the

dation. A resolution to appropriate $1,000

TALK TO GEORGIANS.

1t may be assumed thar PRESIDENT Roosevelt $
declaration at the Georgia day exercises at James
town yesterday that he was half Georgian since
his mother was born, bred and married in that
state. pleased the assembled thousands from that
commonwealth 1t was one of the fecitous per-
sona statements the president frequently makes in
his public addresses which, whether so designed
or not, have the happy result of increasing and re-
tanning his popularity.
AS TO the more serious matter of his discourse,
ii may be said he pursued his customary policy OF
balancing right and wrong actions and courses with
the inevitable result of showing that right must
always be fought for lest wrong gain the ascend
ancy to the injury, if not the destruction OF the
governmental fabric.
The president took occasion to reiterate many
things he has said before. There nothing new
in his assertion that of good impulses enjoy
ing large fortunes desirable citizens and entitled
to the respect of their fellow men and to the
full protection of the laws. Nor was he departing
from we-trodden ground when he asserted that
rich men who use their wealth in vicious and un-
wholesome ways are undesirable members of the
community.
A similar differentiation is made in the matter
OF labor leadership There are, in the presidents
view, safe and sane labor leaders and there are
other leaders who are not SAFE but dangerous, be-
cause of the Socialistic principles they hold and
preach This pronouncement the American people
did not hear yesterday for the first time from their
national executive. ti
Children constitute the most valuable of the
nations assets, and such assets valuable in pro-
portion TO numbers, since the president contends
that to attempt to follow the theory of the few and
the fit would result in an almost barren ideality
However, he asserts that children shall be ade-
quately nurtured and properly educated, because
burden and to produce citizenship not of the most
worthy or helpful kind Employment of children
in industrial pursuits may sometimes be necessary,
but that employment should never be permitted to
Interfere with their educational advancement.
That is to say, the president holds that while
the brain of the child must be educated, the educa-
tion that from books must not dsplace the
education of the hand, because in this life the in
tellectual cannot be regarded as more desirable than
the useful.
AS to state regulation of child labor, the presi-
dent seems willing to accept everything in the line
that the individual commonwealths may offer, so
long as it promises betterment of conditions, but
he rather leans toward federal regulation as
sary to overcome axity the part of some of the
states.
Altogether, the address to the Georgians was
interesting and hought-provoking, and if it enun-
ciated no new principle it enforced old ones in a
followed than they are
