FABLE OF THE PANsY.
Entire Family May Be Traced In Flow
er's Gay Petals.

Lovers OF this pretty flower may be
Interested In the fable concerning It.
The blossom has five petals and five
sepals. In most pansies, especially OF
the earlier and less. highly developed
varieties, two of the petals are plain
In color and three are gay The two
plain petals have a single sepal each,
and the third, which is the largest OF
all, has two sepals. The fable is that
the pansy represents family, consist
Ing of husband, wife and four daugh.
ters, two of the latter being step-chil.
dren OF the wife. The plain petals are
the step-children, with only one chair;
the two small gay petals are the
daughters, with q chair each. and the
large gay petal 10 the wife, with two
chairs. To find the father one must
strip away the petals until the stamens
and pistils are bare. They have
fanciful resemblance to an old man
with flannel wrap round his neck, his
shoulders upraised and his feet In
bathtub. In France the pansy is uni.

renewal Of hostlities, some of those
who have been Foraker supporters
made grand rush for the Taft
bandwagon. They scrambled onto
the political vehicle and began toot-

pected. George b. Cox. Chairman
Senator Colonel Boss Dick and
Chairman Brown set about to de-
wise some scheme to secure the en-
dorsement of Foraker for the sem
atorship. but their plans were dis
rupted by announcements from Sec-
retary Taft and from the White
House. To all appearances, Fora

has il been made evident TO all that
Foraker has no hope of winning the

that he has been putting mp his

What Others Say.
MSEEING THINGS. -

They have been seeing things at
the White House. Ordinarily Theo-
dore Roosevelt is not afraid OF
ghosts. Seldom has he resorted TO
cheap advertising methods to NAM
tain his popularity. Up to the pres
ent time his great personality has
been quite sufficient to SINCE and
sizzle the hair of any one who has
attacked him. But it now seems
e:sher that he is "seeing things"
or that he has gotten down to the
aforesaid cheap advertising meth
ods.
After the Hartman incident,
there was sent out from the White
House a blazing statement to the
effect that there was millionaire 8
conspiracy to "down Roosevelt
From right under che roof of that
historic building came the informa-
tion that a fund of five million
dollars-or five billion, we have
forgotten which, we care so little
for money-had been raised for the
purpose of curbing the popularity
OF, the friend of the people. The
statement that the millonaires Of
the country were trying and con-
spring to get hold Of the Republi-
can party was the funniest thing
that the American people had
heard for years.
1t was so generally understood
that the millionaires already had
charge of the Republican party that
1t was refreshing to learn from so
eminent an authority as Mr..
Roosevelt that there is a conspiracy
for them TO get control of it. The
hundreds Of thousands of dollars
which was poured into the treasury
of the Republican campaign COM
mittee at the last campaign came,
evidently, from paupers. Mr.. Cor.
telyou, who went TO New York
and came away with so much money
visited only the toilers, like Mr..
George W. Perkins, it is to be pre-.
sumed. Mr.. Cornelius Bliss is a
day laborer, evidently. The insur.
ance companies shown by investi-
CATION to have given hundreds of
thousands of dollars to the Repub,
licans, probably are bankrupts OF
they gave the money to their enc,
mics, II all Of this stuff about the
present conspiracy is correct.
AS a matter of fact there has
not been enough money in the Demo
cratic campaign treasury for several
years to buy bass drum. The
Prohibitionists claim that they are
mot milhonaires. The Socialists do
not pride themselves upon the
amount Of bonds they are able to
emp the coupons from. Where,
then, are all of the millionaires,
Iif not in the Republican party
And IT they are already there, why
should they cOnspire to eet into
the party? And If they put up tho
money to have Mr.. Roosevelt
elected, as they unquestionablv
did, and Mr.. Roosevelt proves
traitor to them, as many believe he
has done-and it may not be to .bis
discredit-why would it not be An
easy thing for the same people who
elected Mr.. Roosevelt to elect some,
body else, If they do not now like
HIM? Ao
VI course everybody knows that
tne maiionaires are not entirely
pleased with Mr.. Roosevelt. a
good deal OF the presidents popu-
iarity comes from that afct. But to
talk about a conspiracy of money!
ca men 10 get control OF the Re-
publican party would be Ike talk
ing about conspiracy Of devils

roosevelt really wants to get away

PAYING THE CAMPAIGN PIPER
About the knottiest political prop
osition Mr.. Roosevelt has ever
tackled Is The plan he is said to be
trying to work out for recommend
ing that Congress pay the campaign
expenses Of all Presidential and Con-
gressional elections.
Mr.. Roosevelt Is not rne nrst man
In America who has dreamed of ele-
waiting politics by doing away with
the campaign slush fund. Many
Legislatures have aimed at the same
result by proposing to abolish the
lcorrupting influence of the railroad
pass and requiring the railroads, by
law, to carry legislators and other Of
ficials free.
But the President is, It seems, the
first official of commanding influ-
Ience who has publicly proposed to
strike at the corrupt use of money in
national politics by having the Gov
eminent pay the campaign piper.
The task OF formulating a working
plan would be vastly easier If our
political divisions were always along
the lines OF two or three established
parties approximately equally numer-
ically. 'hN4N' t' H''
H. however. the appropriations for
campaign expenses should be made
only for the parties already well es-
tablished--and 1t is not easy to see
how they could well be made in any
other way-the possible rise of new
parties would be greatly impeded. and
our politics would fall more into ster-
eotype lines.
This would be one OF the gravest
objections to the plan. 1t is true
that In only three or four instances
have new political parties arisen in

Grant in 1861.

Contradictions were hardly neces-
sary of the story printed by Balt;-
more magazine that Grant, Thomas
and Farragut each offered MS services
to President jefferson Davis on the
formation of the Confederate govern
ment at Montgomery early in 1861.
If such applications had been re
ceived they would have been preserved
in the archives of the Confederacy, AMI
most certainly they would have been
used at the proper times and occasions
to impair the confidence of the NORTH
in the loyalty of these great Union
commanders.
1t is certain moreover, that if
Thomas, Virginian by birth and fam
lily, had offered his services they would
have been accepted and he would have
been given high rank in the ConfedeT-
ate army. He remained in the Union
service at great personal sacrifice, fo".
in the bitterness of war, he was ostra-
cized by his Virginia kin, and in the
Union army he was kept from attail-
ing the prominent command to which
his great ability entitled him by a
latent suspicion that early associ.t-
tons might impair his efficiency as q
grim fighter against his own people.
1t is a familiar fact of war history
that when the first call for Union
troops was issued Grant offered him.
self to the governor of Illinois. pro-
nncinn tn Of Illinois.
volunteers, and that his offer was nos
accepted until the demand for men of
military training began to become ur-
gent. His genius for war being WI
suspected, his claims were postponed
to those of men in closer touch with
the powers then to the fore.
There has not been before hint
that Grant ever had thought of el-
tering any other service than that OF
his own state. He had a soldiers APP
probation of the good fight made by
the south against heavy odds, and this
appreciation was expressed in the pc"
sonal courtesy he showed to Lee at
terms he granted to the remnant IF
Lee S army.
But he was essentially too hone It
ever to have become a soldier of foi-
tune against his own people. Misle l
as he often was by scheming politi
clans into mischievous measures dur
ing the eight years 'of his presidency,
he at no time felt animosity toward
the south. This the south came to I'M
derstand before his death at Mount
McGregor, 20 years after Appomattox,
and his memory is honored there as
one of the great men of America.
