Artful Autograph Fieud.

"one of the most interesting coIlec-
tons Of autographs is owned by man
who cultivated the art of kicking In
order to secure them," said an auto
graph expert. Every signature in the
collection was appended to a letter
written by some prominent person In
reply to complaint made by the in
defatigahle kicker. He complained
about everything under the sun, to rail
road presidents about delays on the
road, to public officials about abuses
In their systems of managing public
interests, to literary men and artists
about shortcomings in their work, to
actors and singers about some defects
In a favorite role, and always his com.
plants were couched In such viriie
language as to win consideration and
n reply. not from some secretary. but
from the celebrity whose autograph he
coveted. Milwaukee Sentinel.

To Find Ii. lIar,sno...r.

A rule for finding horsepower of a
pulley is to multiply the circumfer.
enee Of the pulley In feet by the reyo-
buttons per minute, and the product
thus obtained by the width Of the belt
IN inches, and divide the result by 600.
Ahe quotient will be the horsepower
which the pulley Is capable of trans
hitting. This rule is founded on the
Tact that good, ordinary single leather
betting, with a tension OF fifty-fve
pounds per inch wide. win require fifty
square feet OF belt surface passing
over the pulley per minute for one
horsepower. Fifty square feet per
minute are equal 10 a belt one inch
wide running 900 feet per minute.

1t is not surprising that the exposure
of the methods of the group of finan-
cial grand dukes controlling the So
called Hartman roads should take the
breath away from Wall street and
from stock spectators and gamblers
generally. Whatever else may have
been uncovered. 1.-The facts demonstrate
the existence of a concentrated finan-
cial power which, so far as the specu-
lative market is concerned, is practic-
ally irresistible and the manner of
whose employment cannot be foreseen.
Proof is at hand that this combine

the name of the Union Pacific alone,
stocks of other railroads to the value
of over $12O,OOO,O00. having for such
transactions absolute control over the
vast resources welded as q unit of
half a dozen of the greatest and rich

The Peary Lecture.

The Tri-City Press club. which. dur
ing its existence has gained well merit
ed distinction by presenting to the
people of the three cities rare treat
each year. scored another triumph last
evening in bringing here Commander
Robert E. Peary, L. S. N, fresh from
his latest eXpIorative expedition to the
polar regions. and who succeeded in
this latest trip in placing the flag of
the republic furtherest north and near
est the pole of any explorer in history
The intrepid commander was greeted
at the Burtis opera house by one Of
the largest, most intelligent. and most
appreciative audiences that has ever
gathered in the tri-cities on such an oc-
casion. and those who were fortunate
enough 10 be present, were abundantly
repaid. Commander Peary, who is Il
pleasing speaker. told in simple lam
guage, accompanied by comprehensive
views taken during the progress of his
latest expedition, the story of planning
and struggle and the peril and hard
ship that marked his recent dash for
the pole. Inc TO SteTeOptlcon slides OF
regions never before visited or seen by
a human being added a graphic realism
to the message the American eXplor-
er brought of hardihood and daring and
achievement. While stripped of all
sense of Boosting but rather breathing
feeling of disappointment that the
goal had not been accomplished. the
lecture was not only entertaining in
the highest sense, but in most instan-
ces thrilling.
The beauty of the great explorers
position was that he was content not
so much in what he had done, but in
the aid he had given to science and to
those who might come after him in the
struggle to complete the discovery of
what the greatest explorers since the
time of Columbus have sought to at
tain.

structive to know just what the pres
ident's interest was, and is, III insurance
salaries of more than $4,000 which he
desired to protect by applying the pres
sure of presidential influence to the
state governments.
The president of the United States,
as the st. Louis Republic we'll says, is
supposed, and is expected, to work
above ground in all matters except
those in which secrecy may be neces-
sary in our relations with foreign ma
tions. Were his wishes communicated
to the state superintendent "confiden-
TALLY" on the principle that wrong
doors hate the light, or because he
wanted TO exert upon the state govern
ments the pressure of executive influ-
ence which he knew would be resented
II attempted openly?
The incident is one of the most eX
tTaordinary in the history of American
presidents. But il is thoroughly char
acteristic of the reigning executive who
in the administration OF his office al
most habitually, of late, wanders from
the paths of law precedent and pro-
priety.

Another Rash Break.

President Roosevelt's underground
suggestions to state officers and legis.
latures in the matter of insurance sal
aries afford another evidence that he
is wholly deficient in appreciation of
the functions of the presidency. If he
has violated no law. since his sugges-
lions and recommendations were not
communicated over the presidential
signature, no right-minded person will
deny that he has committed a gross
improperly.
Ethically and morally, he has no
right to use the prestige of his Office
TO influence the course of state officers
and the action of state legislatures. a
former senator of the United States is
now in prison for using his senatorial
influence in behalf of a client. BY us
ing his presidential influence in behalf
of certain highly paid insurance Off
Gals. has not President Roosevelt done
an act morally not less reprehensible?
BY making his wishes known to the
state superintendent of insurance
through an official of the District of
Columbia, the president seems to have
come very near doing something call
ing for investigation by congress.
which is responsible for the govern
ment of the district. 1t would be in

An immediate and all important
question is not why railway wrecks
are so destructive as why they should
be allowed to occur in the first place.
Steel cars, of course. are better than
wooden, but there would be no com
plant if the number of wrecks could
be reduced in this country to what ex-
perience abroad shows to be the I'M
avoidable minimum. The mere pros
pect of cOilision-proof cars in the dim
future will hardly divert public atten-
ton from the task in hand. which is
to prevent the consequences of col
lision by abolishing collisions.
