HOW HARRISON HELPED GEORGE
ELIOT.

The recent publication. by the Har-
pers. Of a new subscription edition OF
the works OF George Eliot. is one Of the
signs Of the wide awakening of interest
in the writings OF this remarkable wo-
man.
Frederic Harrison. the distinguished
writer, the authority on Jurisprudence
and history. was a close friend of
George Eliot. and she often asked his
advice in regard to points Of law that
came up i'm the course of her stories.
She particularly needed legal advice
in vital part of Felix Holt-for. con-
scientious worker as she was. and as
all really great artists are. she was not
content 10 make guess-and Mr. Har-
rison listened just as gravely TO the
presentation Of her problem as il II
concerned real individuals and not Gre
atoms Of fiction The next day he sent
her carefully and concisely worded
opinion, which she used in her book
just as he wrote it. In the story it is
ascribed To the attorney general" and
is referred To as final authority" It
is the part printed in italics in Chap
ter XXXV.
Mr.. Harrison was both surprised and
pleased 10 see his own words used. hav-
ing expected that the novelist would
wish to express his legal opinion in her
own language. Thanks to George
Eliot" he said, with a smile. u have
written something that will live for
ever in English literature

MR.. HARTMAN and STOCKS.

The Hartman and Hill stocks Lead
been going on in Wall street, and this
leads to the suggestion that the recent
testimony of Mr.. Hartman has proven
very d~emoralizing. On the stand he
was not at all frank. He declined to
answer many questions apparently
relevant and significant, and he public
judged that but half had been
told.
He told enough, however, to show
that a vast deal of stock watering has
been carried on by himself and by others
engaged in like operations, and that
taxes are levied upon the general bust
ness of the country to provide dividends
or interest upon the watered securities
in question. This is what the country
is considering just at present, and 1t
does not like tho situation a bit. This
dislike may in turn be reflected in prices
in Wall street, for all Hartman and
Hill issues have efiate beenweak.
In the long run no doubt Mr.. Harri-
man and men in similar position at the
head of great railroads will reach the
conclusion that their best policy is to
be found in cooperation with the peo-
pie and the legislatures that are trying
to regulate the railroads in a reasonable
and just Stock watering will
have to be checked, if not altogether
ended, and reasonable supervision by
the authorities, state and federal, will
have to be accepted as a reasonable way
of regulating all concerns that are
operated under public franchises.

Life Guards 8.

The Life Guards are two regiments of
cavalry forming part Of b British
household troops. They are gallant
soldiers, and every loyal British heart
is proud of them. Not only the Kings
household, but yours, ours, everybody's
should have it's life guards. The need
of them is especially great when the
greatest foes of life, diseases, find allies
in the very elements, as colds, influenza,
catarrh, the grip, and pneumonia do in
the stormy month of March. The best
way that we know of to guard against
these diseases is to strengthen the system
with Hoods Sarsaparilla-the greatest
of all life guards. It removes the on
ditions in which these diseases make
their most successful attack, gives vigo1
and tone to all the vital organs and
functions, and imparts a genial warmth
to the blood. Remember the weaker
the system the greater the exposure to
diseases. Hoods Sarsaparilla makes
| the system strong.

ONLY One SENATORIAL VACANCY.

When the Fifty-ninth Congress came
to its official end only one senatorial
seat in the new Congress remained I'M
flled-that of Mr.. Aldrich's colleague.
The deadlock seems to be beyond cure
at present. 1t outruns anything that
Rhode Island has before experienced.
It has been going on several weeks,
and the vote stands unchanged. Colonel
Goddard, independent republican, polls
Al votes out of the Sc needed to win,
and many of his supporters are demo-
Gratis. Colonel Colt polls 3S votes, and
Senator Wetmore gets 30 votes, while
the Rev. Mr.. Utter has to be content
with l vote. All are millionaires, ex-
cept Mr.. Utter, who is a minister of
the gospel. Senator AIdrich supports
Colonel Colt, but that fact seems to
have little weight in the present dead
lock. The republican state committee
is powerless, and no one in Rhode Is
land, or out of it, sees how the contest
can be ended. The state holds an an
nuaI election for governor and a legis-
lature, and the deadlock can not well
be continued beyond next January.
Georgia did have a vacant senatorial
chair, but Governor Terrell has filed
it. He had five presidents to support
him in doing so. Senator Bacon's term
expired on March 4 last, and the meet
ing of the legislature had been changed
by a constitutional amendment from
winter to summer, and 1t looked as if
an interregnum, SO to speak, would
occur. But Governor Terrell
mended Mr.. Bacon, and the legislature
will next June no doubt elect him Sem
ator. primary held last August had
named him to succeed himself.

Sores -Poison Oak Made Boys

Iieved and Completely Cured
Grateful Mother Says:
"CUTICURA REMEDIES A
HOUSEHOLD STANDBY"

"Last year, after having my little
girl treated by a very prominent physi-
clan for an obstinate case of eczema,
I resorted to the Cuticura Remedies,
and was so well pleased with the almost
instantaneous relief afforded that we
discarded the physicians prescription
and relied entirely on hex uticura Soap,
Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Pills.
When we commenced with the Cuti-
cura Remedies her feet and limbs were
covered with running sores. In about
six weeks we had her completely well,
and there has been no recurrence Of
the trouble.
"In July Of this year a little boy in
our family poisoned his hands and arms
with poison oak, and in t~wenty-four
hours his hands and arms were a mass
of torturing sores. We used only the
Cuticura Remedies, washing his hands
and arms with the Cuticura Soap, and
amounting them with the Cuticura ONT
ment, and then gave him the Cuticura
Resolvent. In about three weeks his
hands and arms healed up. So we have
lots of cause for feeling grateful for the
Cuticura Remedies. We find that the
Cuticura Remedies are a valuable
household standby, living as we do

CONGRESS old and new.

The Fi~fty-ninth Congress, dominated
by standpatters and other birds of i'll
omen, has gone into history. 1t author
lied the building of two Dreadnoughts;
passed a liberal rivers and harbors bill,
increased many official salaries, IN
Guiding those Of Congressmen; granted
to the government the right of appeal
in criminal cases; seated Reed Smoot,
and a Mormon; ratified the San Dom
ingo treaty, and settled the San Fran
cisco school incident in an immigration
bill. And then it adjourned.
We have now at hand the Sixtieth
Congress-, although the new Congress
will not meet until December unless an
impnlsive President sooner calls it to-
gether.
Not the least pleasant incident of the
new Congress is the beginning for
Senator Morgan of a sixth consecutive
term. He first took a seat in b Sen
ate on March 5, 1877, as the successor
of Senator George Goldthwaite, and he
has held a seat in that illustrious body
over thirty years. Two years hence
Senator Pettus will begin his third
term, which, so he recently a on the
floor of the Senate. he intends to serve
out. If he does, he will be "a years old,
and a fourth term would let him round
out a century Of honored and useful
years.
The Senate is full Of men who have
passed the psalmist's three score years
and ten, and these men are among the
useful and influential that body.
Mr.. Allison, of Iowa, was born in 1929;
Mr.. Teller, of Colorado, in 1880; Mr..
FRYE, of Maine, in 1881, and Senator
White, of Maryland, in 1924. Senator
Morgan was also born in 1924, n
Senator Pettus, in 1921. This veteran
Senator's lite reaches futher back into
nineteenth century thar that of any of
his colleagues, but there is not a Sem
ator, no matter how young he may be,
who cares to unnecessarily bring upon
himself the vigor and the wit that this
veteran of two wars is always ready to
expend in debate.

SEA POWER AFTER 1910.

ALI the nations that have studied
the battles that Togo fought seem to
have come to the conclusion that the
Dreadnoughts OF the future will domi-
nate the sea. It becomes, therefore, in
teresting to see who will have the most
Dreadnoughts in 1910. for they cannot
be built and put in commission in a
jify.
Great Britain will, as has long been
her custom, lead all the rest, for b will
have in 1910 seven Dreadnoughts, and
three new battle cruisers of the In
vincible class. France will have two
Dreadnoughts and Germany four. Ger
many will also have "a monster
cruiser" Russia and Italy are not in
the running. Japan will have two
Dreadnoughts, and the United States
will have two. In 1909 the South Car
DINA and Michigan will be completed

The chances seem to be that in 1911
the United States will be outranked II

Germany, and probably by japan
with France well alongside. Grea

classed or even closely approached b.
any power at sea. The tight little is

RUILDING The PANAMA CANAL.

On Nav 9 next the administration
will have been engaged in digging the
Panama canal three full years, and in
those three years it will have spent
S12S, 600, 900. Do you doubt these stu
pendous figures?
Well, the first Panama bill appropr1-
ated $50, OOO, 900, tour-fifths of which
public of Panama Then came an ap-
propriation for actual digging $4,000
900. This was speedily followed by an
emergency appropriation of S11,O 900.
Then came a deficiency appropriation
of So, 900, 900, and the regular sundry
civil bill of last year carried ,OOO,-
900 The sundry civil bill of this year
carries a sum not much less. The total
to date is S12S, 900 900, and yet the
work is but fairly started.
The three years have brought before
the country a series of designations and
plumbers with but small achievement.
One engineer after another has desert
ed the huge task. laundering eNtrav-
agance, if not actual corruption. has
marked every step of the three years OF
effort. Senator Morgan's predictions
have been fulfilled at every turn.
The sending of army engineers to
Panama means that the canal will no
be completed very soon or at very low
cost. It bids fair to cover in construc.
ton fifteen years, and to cost at 1eas
double the original estimate. Tha
estimate was $780, 900, 900. It will COS
