New York, April 70. - lie man Wfn shirt makers. and the hzs5erdashers have laid down as rules of fashion this spring and summer will appear in all the tnts of the tifd of pag.,z disc. Mans clothes, according to this seasons dictates of fashion will rival womens raiment in gorgeous cOl0rs. Everything will be conspicuous, from the hat to the shoes and stockings that "are just too cute fot, anything.
 suggesting the modern Beau Brum- mell. Of course these fane.ful crea- tions are the most extreme d"esSefs. Those Of quieter tastes may select less conspicuous materials and still be in good form. Serge and the club check grey suits are running each other a close race for the suit. which of course comes first, for tbat is the biggest and most easily seen of the whole spring outfit Dark gray, in the club checks and Fancy blue check serge with blocks, are the rule, but the really only correct shade. say the tailors, is brown. Browns ill differ ent shades are back again for a re-
 vival, but the youth do not seem to have taken very kindly to them. Blue serge has long been popular with the young men for spring and summer wear, but this year the fabric is more popular than ever. More suits are being made up in tbe fancy type of serge but the plain blue still retains a good place in the favor of the we'll dressed young man. There is not a great deal of change in the cut of clothes except in coats. which are be- ing made with a military and halT- military back. The pattern, Wblch was so popular a few seasons ago, is being revived, and most men Of erect figure are glad. The coats are being made B and B inches long, about the same length that has been prevailing. They are straight down

SENATORS BY POPULAR VOTE.

1t is significant of the state of public
opinion that the resolution demanding
constitutional convention to provide
for the popular election of senators has
passed the upper house at Springfield
by vote of 80 to 3. 1t has been stated
that one or two enemies of the reform in
the lower house have delayed the con-
sideration of similar resolution thus
far, but it is beyond question that the
proportion of members in the lower
house who favor the reform is fully as
great as in the upper house, and so it
may be taken for granted that the reso-
luton will easily get hearing and be
adopted.
Excepting for the three war amend
ments, there has been no formal change
in the federal constitution since the
method of electing the president was
altered, after the Jefferson-Bur con-
test. The amendment of the constitution
is one of the most difficult tasks ever set
for the people by the forms of repre-
sentative government, and that almost
entirely because so many states have to
act concurrently, while no agency for
helping them to cooperate exists, in
cases in which the congress refuses to
take the initiative.
If the states will unite in demanding
this reform it will be constitutional
victory over the consolidated and forti-
fed power of the senate, which will be
something for the nation to be proud Of

Everybody knows what the governor
of North Carolina said to the governor
of South Carolina. But that was long
ago, and a New Haven dispatch to the
Cincinnati Enquirer tells another story.
"Governor Woodruff, of Connecticut,
was surprised on learning, at the
jamestown exposition. that the governor
of North Carolina and the governor of
South Carolina are prohibitionists.
Governor Woodruff was chatting Satur-
day at the exposition with Governor
Hayward, of South Carolina, when Gov
ernor Glenn, of North Carolina, came
along and learning that they had never
met introduced them. "Gentlemen,
when the governor of North Carolina
meets the governor of South Carolina l
expect the usual salutation," said Gov
ernor Haywood, for am a prohibit
zionist and can't offer the usual salute
tand must state said Governor Glenn,
that the governor of North Carolina
said to the governor ofSSouth Carolina,

THE LAST RESORT.

When husband and wife who have
lived together long enough to "raise a
family" meet in the divorce courts it is
always serious matter. 1t means the
breaking up of home, the washing of
dirty linen outdoors, public repetition
of words said in anger and in the privacy
of the home. To most men and most
women the divorce court is place of
shame. To their children it is worse,
because they lack the stimulus of anger
and love turned to hate. Next to death
the worst that can come to home is
divorce.
Children, we are told, must suffer for
the sins of their parents. This holds
true in the divorce court if nowhere
else. The children suffer. Their or
phanhood is peculiar. AS about the
divorced wife and husband clings the
odor of the divorce courts, so the chill
dren of divorced parents live in their
own atmosphere.
The last resort for decent people is
the divorce court. In fact, it is seldom
that two decent persons need settle
their differences there. To men and
women who desire to do right the di-
vorce court is shame and a terror.
They resort to it only when life has
become unbearable, and even those
whose resort to divorce is Unstable
never lose it's stigma.

DANGERS OF A THIRD TERM.

If the surmise be true that the great
railroad corporations are preparing
to compromise with President Roose-
yelt in the matter of regulation and
supervision, the Republican candidate
for the presidency next year is likely to
go into the campaign with the backing
of all the monoplies against which Mr..
Roosevelt has Numbered.
Such an alliance would make the Pres
ident the absolute master and dictator
of his party.
The tariff monoplies which are treat
legitimate industry is beginning to wither
under their eNactions would be shout
ing for a third term for Roosevelt or
for first term for some other Republi-
can named by him.
Under such conditions the Republican
party will be more strongly pledged
than ever as the special guardian OF the
special interests. If the party should
elect the next President and the next
Congress it would upon every economic
question do nothing which the special
interests do not approve as tending to
their own good. Popular rights and
the welfare of the masses would count
Tor nOthinS.
The possibility of such a combination
controlling the government, and led by
Mr.. Roosevelt or successor inspired
with his principles, is one which Democ-
racy should ponder gravely and coolly.
In possession of all the legitimate
powers of the Government and not hest
tating to usurp any others necessary to
it's ends, it would bring crisis of
danger to American institutions which
every patriot citizen should strive with
all his might to avert.
President Roosevelts desire for a
third term is too thinly yelled to con-
ceal the palpable fact that he will take
the nomination if he can get it with a
reasonable prospect of election. His
usurpations, and his own contempt for
the checks upon centralized power
which have heretofore been observed
leave little doubt that his election
would end in completely revolutioniz-
| ing the Government as we now know it.
1t is situation which calls for the
highest wisdom, patriotism and courage
on the part of the Democracy. Minor
| issues should shrink in the presence Of
great.danger.
The sole purpose with which the
Democracy should prepare for the next
years struggle should be the preserva-
tion of the rights of the States and OF
the people.
A good platform of principles has al.
ready been outlined. But the growing
probability that President Roosevelt
will be candidate for denomination
makes greater than ever the necessity
for Democratic championship of the
principles which have made this country
great and happy principles which the
prolongation of Rooseyeltism would de.

of Pensions Warner re-

Commissioner of Pensions Warner re-
ports that about 100000 applications for
pensions have been received under the
McCumber service pension bill. Less
than one per cent of these are original
the remainder being applications for
increases from men whose names have
been on the roll in the past. Soon after
the law took effect the number of appli-
cations reached 10000 day, but it has
now fallen to 1000 day and it is ex-
pected that it will continue to diminish
rapidly for some time. The unknown
army" consisting of civil war veterans
whose names had not appeared on the
pension list prior to the adoption of the
McCumber law is still unknown. Con-
gress deferred the service pension for
years, evidently in the belief that its
enactment would mean the addition of
an immense host of new pensioners to
the list. The result to date indicates
that this belief was unfounded.

The thing that lies nearest the demo-
cratic heart just now, from a national
standpoint, is the coming election, next
August, in the new State of Oklahoma.
Unless the president turns down the
new state constitution recently made by
convention largely democratic in
membership, and which he will not do,
there will be an election down there in
August for whole state ticket, judicial
ticket, legislative ticket, which legisla-
ture elects two United States senators,
and five members of the lower house of
the congress. The democrats are anx-
ious to make clean sweep of the entire
board, but they have a fight on their
hands and they must work to win the
victory. 1t should be the desire of
every democrat in the country to see
the new state come into the union as a
democratic state and it should be his
pleasure as well, to help toward that
end.

The census bulletin just published,
which presents the enumeration of pop
ulation in fourteen states and estimates
for all other sections under the juris-
diction of the United States up to 1905
shows large on paper. 1t credits this
country with over 100000 inhabitants,
or Americans as they are called, the
estimated number for the continental
United States being at the close of last
year S4,000,000. This is an increase of
100000 over the population of 1900.
This is the record of six years as near
as it can be obtained short of actual
count. We are disposed to be pessi-
mistic as to the character of this pop
ulation increase, but it is just as we'll to
see on what it is based, and that in
stead of being evidence Of natural
growth it simply expands the measure
of our assimilative problems Boston

SHOULD PUBLICITY BE sup
DRESSED.

Because bank in southern Iowa had
been Quilted by its cashier, and because
the newspaper editors and cartoonists
were moralizing over the affair, the es-
Unable gentlemen of the Des Moines
clearing house association met to con-
slider some plan of suppressing public
ity about bank failures. Publicity,
they thought, was creating distrust Of
all banks, and since bank does bust
ness entirely upon public confidence,
the effect was detrimental to the legiti-
mate banking interests.
A very plausible deduction, and not
altogether unreasonable, from a purely
interested and 8 per cent interest
standpoint, but hardly able to with
stand extended discussion. In the first
place, publicity of bank failure could
not be suppressed even if all clearing
houses were agreed that it ought to be.
Even if the newspapers should try to
suppress it the travelling men and tele-
phone girls would spread such stories
as would make mans hair stand on
end. A sensation travelling from mouth
to mouth never loses color by repeated
telling.
But would it be good public policy to
have such publicity suppressed? Did
any cashier or president ever dissipate
the funds of bank without first put
ting the directors and examiners in the
dark? Did ever board of directors
grow careless and cease their vigil I'M
til after the bank had passed long ca
reer of honest and sound management?
Then does it not follow that the wide
publicity given to the rare instances of
failure arouses every director of other
banks to do more examining, and does
it not stir every cashier and president
to more careful banking directly be-
cause of the uneasiness aroused in the
public mind? What saturnalia of pill
fering, reckless loaning and sleepy,
careless banking would take place if
the public was never to know that
banks do fail until their own bank clos
ed it's doors!- Marshalltown Times-Re-
publican.

"THEY say"

No combination of words in the lang
uage has caused more trouble and pain
and sorrow than the phrase, "They say"
1t hits in the dark. 1t is anonymous.
1t has no personality. 1t cannot suffer
from any reaction. 1t is totally ire
sponsible.
The phrase ought to be put under the
ban.
1t is this way: You speak to some
one of mutual acquaintance. There is
a shrug of the shoulders, or lifting OF
the eyebrows. And the lowering of a
voice with the preface "They say"
Even when the gossip fails to give
his authority he has put an evil sugges-
ton into your mind respecting the per-
possible to get rid of. The impression
stays. Suspicion turks. A great wrong
is done.
''They say"
When the suspicion is dropped into
eager ears and there is willing mouth
to give the evil message utterance to
other eager ears, the assassination of
character has begun.
What 'They say" may sometimes be a
true message. But is it necessary
message? Will it make the world
better or worse by the telling of it?
1t is very plain that much suffering
and sorrow might be prevented by cut
ting the ugly words from our vocabu-
larry.
1t would be fine thing if everyone
of us would have the courage to
promptly halt "They say" with a pre-
emptory--

Discomfort is never SO common as
when prosperity is abundant. Men are
never so noisily' miserable as they are
when they have nothing to complain
about. That is why we hear SO much
nowadays of social unrest. The country
is rich beyond the visions of the people
of other nations. The whir of the loom,
the sound of the forge, the noise
of the factory are heard in ever
increasing volume everywhere. Yet
we hear the the cry of that is all. The
more one has the more one wants. In
stead of thanking fortune that we are
so much better off than most, we grieve
because we are so much less we'll of
than few.

Among the laws enacted by the pres
emit session of the legislature is one for
feiting the certificate of a teacher who
violates her contract to teach. There
has been good deal of annoyance to
school boards by reason of the old
practice. How would teacher feel for
instance, if a young man should agree to
marry her and then fail to show up at
the beginning of the life term? The
court dockets show how she would feel
about it. What's sauce for the gander

Ex-Governor Larrabee of Iowa is

Ex-Governor Larrabee of Iowa is
quoted as follows in an interview in
the Washington, D. c., Post:
"Governor Cummins will control the
Iowa delegation in the Republican
national convention next year. He
is with the President and always has
been, so it may be inferred that the
delegation will be for the Presidents
policies. The governor is not after
the honor. He is after the seat in the
senate now occupied by Senator Allison,
and when the senator becomes incapaci-
tated for any reason the governor will
no doubt succeed him, for he has work
ed for the interests of the people of the
state, and they will reward him."

what every housewife in the land has
known all along that prices were on
higher level in 1906 than for seventeen
years. The government statisticans

consulting the meat and grocery bills
of the housewives of the country.
