At a conference in Washington last
week, President Roosevelt promised
representatives OF newspapers of the
country that he would recommend to
Congress the abolition OF the tariff
on wood pulp and the wood that goes
into the manufacture of printing pape
which would relieve paper buyers
of the terrible pressure brought upon
them nowadays by the Paper Trust.
This is a virtual confession that the
tariff is not only an unnecessary tax,
bur a burden, for its removal will GER
tainly cheaper the price of paper.

 It is a tremendous project but it is characteristic of American people to be attracted rather than repelled by the inn mensity of a scheme. When the President was writing his first message to Congress. urging the construction of the Panama canal, one of his advisers said to him From ocean to ocean sounds most at tractive, MT, President, but remember 1t involves a great task
 MT. Roosevelt quickly replied: My eX- perience with the American people has convinced me that the greater the under taking the greater the interest.

Beginning With the insurance investigation every inquiry into the affairs of corporation has dis closed the existence of a fund spent se- cretly for corrupt purposes. So far the yellow dog has eaten up mere than s600O,OO0 His latest exploit to be brought to light was in connection with the Met ropolitan Street Railway company, which spent $217,000 through Lemuel Ely Quigg to accelerate" public opinion or manu- facture sentiment. When d bill objec- tionable to the Metropolitan was before the legislature Quigg was assigned to manufacture public sentiment against it. If the Metropolitan wanted certain meas ures passed Quigg manufactured public sentiment for them. He accomplished this
 in various ways, by getting up petitions by having mass meetings held, and, of course, by corrupting members of the leg islature.

But, of course, patrons like the oil trust and MT Hartman will have to pay very high rates: the reason for this is obvious. To be sure it would be hard for the Department Store, Limited, to fill all orders immediately because un- doubtedly many different brands of pub lie sentiment would be in demand.

cocktail. Thackeray says George Wash ington was not averse to q drink of new corn whisky, but Washington's S aristocratic palate never met a cock tail. We know that Jefferson tarried at the wine, that the first Adams loved rum punch, that Clay took everything "a-comin an a-gwine." that Webster never refused, that Van Buren drank Burgundy, that Douglas, just before the grand opening apostrophe of his Nashville speech, swallowed a full gob- let of brandy a dozen degrees above proof; but none of these eyer astonished his stomach with that abomination and antithesis, a cocktail, that is hot and cold, sour and sweet, strong and weak, and that would have been scorned by a ponderous Roman senator.
 And thereby hands a tale. It was some 20, years ago that two stalwart men con fronted each other in a parl0r of a sumptuous mansion in the stately city of St. Louis. Kentucky born-one in Blue grass Madison county, and the other in Pennyrile Allen-they had long before wrestled with fortune and flung her in the grand metropolis of the Mississippi. Friends they had ever been. confldants always copartners sometimes. Now one had the flush of contrition on his hand some countenance and the other the flush of astonishment and mental anxiety on his stern features. Finally the latter ex- claimed:

holders and the city officials the em- ployes? The city hall is the department store in which each department is under the control and management of an expert in the business done therein, whether 1t be sanitation or cemeteries, lighting or licenses. The general manager may be called Mayor or president, or intendant, but he must be man of vast and varied Knowledge, and he must give all his time, ability and attention to the duties of his office. The profits which the stockholders in d municipal corporation receive are not in the shape of dividends at 3 or per cent, but are to be found in efficient fire and police protection, good sanitary con ditons, well-paved and well-lighted streets, pure water and the improvement and preservation of the public domain.
 Now, is it possible to place a municipal corporation on the same business lines as a private corporation? Is it possible to secure the services of department man. agers who are experts, and a general manager who has all the necessary quail flcations? It seems that such men could be had if the stockholders would pay the price, If railroad companies and steam ship companies representing hundreds of millions of dollars. tand With interests far more vast and karied than the average municipal corporation, can find depart ment and general managers to operate their businesses with success, surely 1t IS

He was invited out of the north by Richelieu, and every victory he gained made France more secure but there is no record that Richelieu shed any tears when Gustavus fell. He was getting troublesome, and the dominion of all Europe would not have satiated his ambition. But this is a Protestant coun- try, and of course, we have to stand up for our Protestant cutthroats.

In that great emporium each department is under the control and management of a man who is an expert in the particular line of busi- ness done in his department.

year elected to Congress. His maiden speech was forensic triumph and made against the civil service law. It was eloquent, and 1t was bright. He set the House in a roar and the democrats were even more delighted than the republicans for they had run up against the thing during two entire administrations. By "tellers" the House sustained Landis with an overwhelming majority. On roll call he went down under majority just as big. The easiest and the quickest way in the world to change the entire personnel of Congress would be to re- peal the civil service law.
 Landis' next exploit was to drive a coach and four through the constitution of the United States in unseating Brig nam H. Roberts, who had been elected to Congress from Utah. Littlefield made a great constitutional argument and was backed up by Bailey of Texas. million of women petitioned Congress to turn Roberts out because he had three wives. The yaller journals threw sundry fits, not that they cared a damn for Roberts, or his wives, but that was what they were there for But the constitution was seem- ingly in the majority until Charley Lam dis got the floor. And such a speech! l apprehend few of our public men would not be glad to have made 1t. However that may be, it did the work for the Hon. Roberts and he never got his place.
