No wonder that it pauses to salute the Dove of Peace, perehed

under the roof of that dome now dwe1s the angelic peace OF

The Governor and Sam have made up. No longer do they
fail to smile and greet each other No longer do they pass as
strangers. Sam has forgiven the Governor and everybody is
happy.

Needs a stimulus.

The Taft boom needs a new treatment.
Judge Taft himself was never in better
form than now. He has acquitted HIM
self well of his lstest mission to the far
east, and that was an important mission.
He is returning home by the way of Eu-
rope, and we may expect him to appear to
advantage Wherein he stops en- route.
But the boom just at present undoubtedly
looks ''puny," and the dose administered
at Cleveland Tuesday shook its frame
powerful. Washington Star.

A wealthy New York woman who was unable to buy a
Spanish Duke for her daughter, because of inability to guaran-
tee him an income of more than 5000, 900 annually, is delighted
over the increase of her fortune by an additional one million
dollars. Now she is ready to make another offer for and to
the grandee, and if in the meantime he has been unable to
get a higher one, he may accept hers.
We are properly shocked, of course, when we read of
savage or semicivlized parents selling their daughters for gain.
Is there really much, if any, difference between that traffic and
the business of our nouveau rich barbarians in bartering away the
body and soul of their daughters for an empty title? If there
is, may we not justly look with more tolerance on the conduct
of the savages who don't know any better, and have had none
of the benefits of civilization.

pushing a Presidential boom in the West for George B. Cor
telyou, now Secretary of the Treasury, and that the movement
is backed by President Roosevelt
Lest any of the brethren be puzzled to. separate the truth
from the fiction in that tale, here IT the simple facts:
For a long time MI. Corte1you has been a receptive candi-
date for the Presidency. President Roosevelt, while knowing
Taft, another member of his official family, has not in any
in the matter, nor has he attempted to put a straw in Mr..
Cortelyou's way. If for any reason Taft dropped out of the
race it would please the President to see either Root or Cor
te1you named.
Archbishop 1relands advocacy of Mr.. cortelyou is purely
personal. They are warm friends and have been for years

corning the purchase of 100000 of Illinois Central Railroad

Were the 10000 shares sold by yourself, Mr.. Rogers and
Mr.. Stilman pooled2
Was it acquired for the purpose of selling it to the Union
Pacific?
Was the stock purchased by you at a much lower price
than $175, with the intention of turning it over to the Union
Pacifcl
Did you have any interest in the 10000 shares sold at the
time by Kuhn, Loeb & Co. to the Union Pacific?
Was that 10000 shares acquired by the same pool for the
purpose of selling them to the Union Pacifcf
Mr.. Hartman takes the ground that the Commission has no
constitutional power to compel him to answer. Of course he's
right. No man is legally obliged to incriminate himself unless
protected against the consequences of telling the truth.
Yet, when Mr.. Hartman was first called as a witness, he
announced his intention to answer all questions frankly, honestly
and unreservedly. Possibly at that time he didn't think that
the commission knew SC much as he has since learned that it
knows now.
