DEPENDS ON PRESIDENT.

The future course of railroad devel-
opment depends largely on what the
resident shall say And as yet the
President has said nothing, largely
because he has not yet made up ms
mind. Nearly every one of the callers
who has been to the White House has
come With different Interpretation
of the Presidents utJerances. He
more that IS likely to get to the pub
lie through the paper till he can make
broad statement in his own way that
may be misinterp1eted in some quar-
ters but that cannot be misquoted.
Therefore he will take occasion at
some time in the near future when
he is to make public address to ex-
plain his views up to date on the rail-
road question. There will be two
opening speech at the jamestown Elk
position, and the unwilling of the
Lawton Monument in the middle west.
There will be another and nearer
occasion at the dedication OF the Rough
Riders Monument at Arlington on
April 18th, when the President may
choose to say something on the rail
road question that will be remembered.
Until he does speak officially, it is
hardly worth while to attribute views
to HIM, but this much may be said
confidently, that the President is no
more the enemy of the railroads than
he is of any other industrial enter
prise. The Interstate Commerce Com
mission has, under his direction and
the direction of congress, unearthed
an amazing amount OF rottenness and
dissemination. This will be prose
cuted through the regular channel of
the department of justice without fear
or favor. The question whether or
not there will be additional railway
legislation called for at the next ses-
sion of congress will depend largely OH
whether or not the present laws prove
adequate in dealing with the case.

SENATOR SPOONER.

One of the greatest surprises polit-
ical circles have had IN long tin {
was furnished in the recent resigna-
ton of Senator John G. Spooner, of
Wisconsin, two years before the legal
expiration Of his term in the upper
house of congress, in order to resume
the practice of law. By his retire
ment the senate loses one of It's ablest
and most influential members. Mr..
Spooner's service Of sixteen years in
that body has been marked by faith
fulness and All efficiency rarely paral-
leled. He has been the foremost au-
thority on ar eXpounder of cOnstltu-
tional on subjects, and in an area of
radicalism has been conservative
factor in the law-making world. The
the people, as well as by his col
leagues, was well voiced in an eulo-
CYSTIC tribute paid to him by Pres
ident Roosevelt. He leaves the SEN
atorial field with the respect and
good will of the nation, and the GER
tainty of success in whatever direc-
ton he may apply his force and ability.
Although weariness of political strife
may have been contributory motive,
the expressed reason for Senator
opooner's withdrawal from public life
is his desire to make better provisions
for his family ana for his later years
than the salary of his Office permit
ted. He will carry on his professional
work in New York, but will retain
his residence in his own state. The
report that Mr.. Spooner had been
engaged as counsel for James j.
Hill, president of the great North
ern Railway, at a salary of $50, zoo
per year, was promptly denied. :

A YOUTHFUL VE5UVIUS.

The youngster who is enough of an
infant to be washed and dressed by
his mother, will throw his toys into a
neglected pile and steal out of sight
FIR quiet smoke. He may not be
old enough to get into his knicker-
Dockers with proper regard for
which side should be presented to the
public, but he can stick a cigarette in
the corner Of his little cherubic
mouth, and discount a race tract tout
tor self satisfaction and Importance.

The President must go forward ant

The President must go forward and
carry cut the policy he has inaugurated
in dealing with the great equasi-
public corporations in regard to rates,
securities and watered stock. To
stand still or go backward means the
loss of the confidence of the people
who heretofore, have had the utmost
confidence in his honesty and desire
to serve them, and not those who IN
the recent past have made immense
fortunes in manipulating railroad
stocks. For him to yield at this time
at the frantic appeals of the financial
cliques of Wall street means that he
is more concerned for the welfare of
the stock jobbers than he is for the
country at large to whom he will give
offense. The condition IN the great
money center of the country should
not change his policy. The conditions
existing are the result of wild and
reckless speculation in which the
people have no concern and should
be lett to adjust themselves. 1t is
the opportune time for the President
to not only exhibit independence, but
to say in no uncertain tone that he
will not deviate fraction of hair
from the policy he has been pursuing
even if every man in Wall street is
forced i'll bankruptcy and railroad stock
shrink in value to what they are
really worth

ELECTRIC SPARKS
(By our associate editor) i.

Says the Kaiser: land what would
my colleague Roosevelt think if
acted contrary to his theory of hare
work and little play?" He wouIc
think you a weakling that ougth tc
be exposed on Mount Taygetus.
The Atlanta Constitution is positive
that MIR. Roosevelt will be the next
Republican nominee, while the Nor.
fUlk-Virginian Pilot is equally positive
that he will not. That appears to be
about the state of affairs.
A Detroit man is asking for a di-
vorce because his wife compeIs him
to do the house work. If she does
not compel him to accompany her on
her shopping expeditions, he still has
something to be thankful for, and
should keep quiet.
Divergency of opinions by insanity
experts leads one to doubt whether
half of them are sane.
When the big trusts have so much
"stock" of course they must need
d great deal of water.
1t is annoucned that another revoIu-
tion is "brewing" in Russia. Russia
must be a regular brewery.
Former Senator Burton, convict,
says he is going to prove to the people
Of this country, that he is very much
alive. What is it to be, stage OR ros-
trum?
If insanity experts are to have hear
ing at every murder trial, it may soon
become impossible to punish any man
who commits a crime while III d rage,
unless it is made a capital offense to
experience brain storm.
The post Office departm ent is being
criticised for permitting the post
office name of Cherry tree in Pennsyl
vania, to be changed to Skiddo. 1t
is probable, the petition for another
change signed by the % inhabitants
will be considered.

There is now a surplus in the nations

There IS now surplus in the national
treasury of $50, 600, QUO and 1t promises
to be larger in the near future. There
is no good reason why there should
be surplus in the treasury. 1t leads
to extravaganza and unnecessary
expenditures of the public funds
Then TO create and maintain such a
surplus means that the people are
heavily taxed by our present inequious
tariff, which might be greatly reduced
were it not from the fact that large
surplus must be kept intact. 1t Is
time for the people to begin to think
and to ask themselves what are their
congressman and senators doing and
whom do they represent?

euried Money In the Hoo Lot.


There Is ut least one man in this
country whose confidence in banks
has been restored. SAYS a Brazil! (Ind.)
dispatch TO the indianapolis News.
This man appeared at tho First Ma
tional bank in that city yesterday
With greenbacks TO the amount or
1857. or rather what two weeks ago
represented that amount OF money.
The money, when brought to the
hank, was In deplorable condition.
1t was in wads and rolls. and also
in many pieces The man acknow.
lodged sheeplshly that he had become
excited over the financial furry and
had drawn the money from ono OF
the banks. He took 1t home and
buried Il where he thought its pres
ence would be least uspected--iR ehc
hog lot.
Yesterday he was shocked to find
. that his treasure had been rooted un
by the hogs and part OF 1t eaten. a
hundred.doliar bill was missing and
the remainder of the roll, which was
In denor$lations, was chewed and
torn to pieces. He washed oil OF
the money as clean as possible and
pasted the pieces together az we'll rs
he could. The bank accepted the
money and will send 1t to the United
States treasury The banking Off
cials are of the opinion that nc will
lose at least half of the money he
buried. e
