The Man on Horseback.

Louisville Courier Journal.
 The failure of the President to make any sign. or to utter any word touch ing third term for himself in the White House when the members of the Republican National Committee stoQd assembled before him, is most signiR- icant.
 IL looks very much as if the. con sensus of opinion amongA the Wash ington correspondents thattae is can 'didate and has been adroltly planning to produce conditions which will bring about his nomination and seem to force him to accept it, were true, and that: from now onward each aspirapt will have to reckon with this man-in- tn D. closet ready to burst forth at the sounding of the prearraneed signal bell for the onslaught upon the candidates now in the field to begin.
 At Washington representative gov ernment long ago gave place to ring made government, the party in power working through it's steering commit. tee in the Senate and the Speaker and his rules committee in the House, the p-Aaid~"t having more actual author

ANTI-soCIALIsM IN ENGLAND.
Appears to Be a Reaction from the
 Recent Agitation.

Appears to Be 6 Reaction from the
 Recent Agitation.
 Details of the socialist defeat in the English and Welsh municipal elections which occurred Friday will make in- teresting reading for those who are watching the course of the public-own the world. For some time signs Of reaction from the tendency toward the municipalization of all utilities which nous fetture of the English system of Government, have been accumulnstns. The cities that have undertaken the ownership and management of traction even manufacturing and retailing es- tahlishments have been bonded to an extent that has seriously alarmed the financiers of the United Kingdom. Mu- until they are below par and a heavy handicap on the financial resources of the country. Millions of pounds are tied up in them, with the supply so security has become practically impos- sible. In the cities themselves condi- tions vary from the top notch of good management to absolute demoralisa- tion. Here and there municfpalization has resulted in better service and in a measure of profit to the community as well. Elsewhere the public control has given rise to feeling of bitter dlscontent with the system and has iaid heavy burdens of taxation upon the shoulders of the people.
 The municipal ownership tide turned some time ago. and several large pro jects, newly preached in various parts of the Kingdom. were rejected by the people. Since then the socialistic pro- gram has been under cloud. ana Tn many cities the voters at by-elections have indicated their desire to relieve themselves of the weight thrust upon them in the days of extravagant ex- perimentation. Yesterdays balloting, according to the first cable dispatches. gave further evidence that the, tend ency at present Is away from the so- | cialism of the past decade and hali; I Of the thousand Socialists who onereo | for election in the various constituent cies only mere handful" as the re- l port runs. were successful. strong | organized opposition was in evidence. | It Is possible that beneath the surface | in this balloting may be found strong current of opposition to the | present liberal ministry, which oweo | It's success at the polls at the general l election largely to the cooperation of l the Socialistic clements. including the Labor Party. feeling of dissatisfac-
 tion with the Campbell -Bannernlan | government has undoubtedly been growing for some time. and 1t would not be surprising t1 find that it has gained sufficient force to afford the op- position a raliyfng ground for the next campaign.

 We don't know the why or the where fore, but Kansas must De great coun- try for rabbits. if we are to judge from the following article from The Kansas City Journal:
 If there is a market fer rabbits in Kansas it is in McPherson. It is no unusual sight to see farmer drive into McPhersou with a big wagon tightly boarded on both sides and filled to overnowing with rabbits killed in a hunt. Tn New York and other Eastern states s uon ns,d the s. meat from Kansas rabbit kets look. to McPherson for supplies. and get them by the carload not be- cause there are more rabbits in Me- rnersDn adnr,sns County than in ad5Sinins hn come an established market for rab- bits. It is nothing unusual for a far- mer to sell more than a thousand bun nies in day and at fair prices. At closes. the catching of the little ani- mals becomes regular industry.
 If we understand it correctly these are not the long -eared and high jump ing jackrabbits. but the plain oId- fashioned molly-cotton- with which the country people. are so familiar and which are often seen in the markets here. We almost dreaded to copy the above article lest 1t might fall under the notice of The Houston Post and set it's brag writer to work. or cause the esteemed contemporary to feel bad ly under the realization that another section can lay over 1t in anything. All the same. Kansas must be good on rab- bits.

z The Advertiser is right. The Dem ocratic Party doesn't have to go out side of it's ranks to secure candidates and it will not do so. The Democracy has within its ranks as able and as pa triotic men as are to be found in the ranks of any political party. If some of these cannot be nominated as the psrty's candidate for the Presidency, the party may as well go out of busi- ness.

IN It IS true that Inucn oI tHo hhOl va - l rieties of hard woods. such as mahog any, rosewood, etc, are imported from abroad. but besides being an expensive process it may reasonably be supposed that this supply will be exhausted at a not distant period, if the demand for it increases, as it must do unless means are found in our own country to in- crease or preserve the home supply.
 Plainly there are but two ways to do this, one of them being to preserve the timber now standing. so that it will not longer be ruthlessly destroyed and wasted, and the other is to replace that which has been cut. The latter, as is pointed out, is a slow process, but that fact should not stand in the way of carrying 1t out. It is not only the duty of the present generation to pro vide for it's own future in this respect but it is the part of wisdom and duty to make provision for the future gen erations that may experience the same need of hardwood that we do. Plant Ing a slow growing tree for the benefit of those who come after us is not a waste of time, but is like putting money into a savings bank where it will not only draw interest. but afford store to draw from hereafter.
 But while the planting should not be neglectedSit it is an imperative duty to preserve what is left of our inc timber Heretofore 1t has been cut aud slashed lture trees and leaving the younger onea

CURRENCY PAYMENTS SOON.
Banks Likely to Resume a Week
From Next Monday.

Controller of the Currency Ridgely has
returned to Washington after a few
days absence at his home in Illinois. He
reports currency conditions in the middle
west as rapidly approaching the normal
and says that with the exception of a
very small number of institutions farther
west. the banks are practically ready to
resumeA full currency payments. In
Springfield. ILL.,. his home city. there never
has been any embarrassment whatever as
to the currency supply. and although the
weekly pay rolls have 'aggregSsSd as large
an account as almost any city of its size
there have been no delays in cash pay
ments
Although Mr.. Ridge.y had no definite
knowledge as to the exact date when the
banks at all the leading money centers
will resume currency payments to all de-
positors. he had heard the opinion ex-
pressed by persons in a position to know
the facts that 1t was not unlikely that a
week from next Monday would be agreed
upon.
