ROOSEVELT DESIRES =, "a
TO WEAR THE TOGA
Has One Ambition to Go 10
Senate, Friends Say.
THAT'S HIS REAL AMBITION
Has No Desire for a Third Term,
But Hopes for a Permanent
Seat in the Upper House
of Congress.

WASHINGTON, August 9-Presi-
dent Roosevelt has but one ambition
for his own future. He wants to be
Senator of the United States from
the State of New York when he has
finished his term as President, and
he doesn't want anything else.
The authority on which this state
ment is made is the highest possi-
BILE. President Roosevelt is not per-
sOnally going around telling every
one what he wants, but there is no
room whatever for doubt that his
personal desire is to step from the
White House into the Senate cham
ber, and, as the successor of Thomas
Collier Platt, be present at the first
roll call of the extra session that his
Presidential successor will call, and
which will come to order on March
5, 1909.
No Idea OF Another Term.
All of the talk about the possibility
of President Roosevelt succeeding
| himself has been the veriest moon
| shine, so far as the President him
self was concerned. Undoubtedly
there is a large number of citizens
that would like to have Mr.. Roose-
velt in the White House for fou years
| after his present term expires, and
it is equally true that few months
ago there were some tentative efforts
to crystalize and organize this senti-
ment These efforts, which might
have resulted in stampeding the next
| Republican National Convention for
the Rough Rider, did not have the
Presidents sanction On the con-
| trary as soon as they were brought
to his attention he took the most eff
fective means of squelching the pro-
ject of his fool friends.
From the moment of his triumphant
election in 1904 he has never for a
moment seriously considered himself
possible candidate for the nomina-
ton in 1908, and there is the best of
reasons for believing that when he
made his declaration that he would
not accept a reelection he had al
ready determined on a course of ac-
ton calculated to bring about the cul-
mination of his real ambition--a seat
in the Senate.

COMPANY Resented Inquiry.

I'VE were stumped for a time,
said an official, but struck a new
lead, and finally learned that once
more had an effort been made to
deceive us. We discovered that the
Standard refineries sold the product
to its own marketing companies at
an enormous profit, and that the
marketing company was in all prob
ability devised in anticipation OF
just such inquiries as is now being
made. When we advised the Stan
dard representatives of our discov-
cries they told US it made no differ
ence what the profits of the con-
Germ were; that we were meddling
and prying into matters that we
should not touch"

Gross Receipts Are to Be Taxed One Per Cent for
Schools.
Senate Passes the Dykes Bill Putting Penalty Upon Telegraph Companies

ATLANTA, August 9.-The rail-
roads of Georgia received another
stunning blow today when the House
adopted the amendment to the gen.
eral tax bill imposing tax of one
per cent upon the gross receipts of
all railway lines operated within the
State.
This squeezes an additional four
hundred thousand dollars from these
corporations.

Government Was Deceived.

Il will say this, that in every ster
we have taken in our efforts to get
at the facts concerning the opera
tions of the Standard Oil Company
we have met deception in men and
methods. | might use shorter and
uglier words, but these convey my
meaning"
In the inquiry made by the gov
ernment prior to the institution OF
suits in the rebate cases, which re-
suited in the Standard being fined
$29,240,00O, the officials say that
Standard representatives absolutely
denied that rebates had been paid.
They came near making good in
their assertions, and the govern
ment was about to abandon the
prosecution, when special agents
accidently ran across the bills of
laiding in the Alton case. 1t was
shown beyond a doubt that false
and misleading schedules were
filed with the Interstae Commerce
Commission by the railroad com
pany. Then the government de-
cided to go ahead
In the preparation of the report
on prices and profits" it is learned
they submitted to officials of the
Bureau of Corporations books and
papers of a marketing company in
New York. These showed that the
Standard was making a very small
profit, hardly enough to pay a fair
return on the investment

Railroads Protested.

The railroad companies had en-
tered a vigorous protest to this pro-
posed legislation which is to wiring
from them nearly a half million dol
lars annually, in addition to taxes al
ready imposed but the protest avail
ed not.
The State needed the money, and
the deficiency in the treasury as the
result of other legislation had to
be met in some way.
Gees to School Fund.
This tax of 100000, wrung from
the railroads by the imposition of
the income tax, is to go to the State
school fund, which will be sorely in
need of replenishing as the result of
the loss of the state liquor licenses.
There is no doubt but that this
amendment to the general tax act
will stick all right enough.

This Good Old World.

No man with dyspepsia, says II writ

a fool of himself if he ever tried for
with his taste, he can't tell when a
thing is good. y child with the car
ache fails to rdcosniZe even its

what the trouble is, but it is IL plain
case, even to the mind Of Il baby, that
something is wrong somewhere. And
universe is out of joint, it is safe to
conclude that there is something
radically wrong with the growlcr. II
this world isn't as good as heaven
it still lacks Il long stretch Of being
as bad as some people seem to see
it. A young lady complained that the
people around her home, particularly
the young people, were so stupid ana
uninteresting-no society. no con-
genial associates, no nothing. When
one considers that it had always been
a sleepy place, and that she had lived
there right along, one cannot but
wonder how much she was to blame,
equally with her neighbors, for the
dullness and stupidity of the place. 1t
is much better to do what one can
to cnliven and uplift ones surround
ings, rather than decry and forsake
them -

ing Thee to grant her whatever is best
in her present state and finally to re-
ceive her to eternal happiness

Verify, the good doctor would aston
ish the high church party Of tho pres
ent day:
Boswell Loquitur.-I had hired IA
Bohemian as my servant while re-
nained II London, and being much
pleased with him, J. asked Or. john
son whether his being Il Roman Cath-
me to Scotland.
Johnson-Why, no, sir; il he has
no objection, you can have none.
Boswell-So, sir, you are no great
enemy of the Roman Catholic religion?
Johnson-No more than to the Pres
byterian religion.
Boswell-You are Joking.
Johnson-No, sir; ! really think SO;
ray sir, OF, the two, prefer the popish
proceeded: What do you think
sir, Of purgatory, as believed by the
Roman Catholics?
Johnson-Why. sir, it is very
harmless doctrine. They arc of the
opinion that the generality of man.
kind are neither SO positively wicked
as to deserve everlasting punishment,
nor so good as to merit being admitted
into the society Of blessed spirits; and
f that, therefore, God is graciously
pleased to allow of a middle state.
where they may be purified by certain
degrees Of suffering; you see, sir, there
is nothing unreasonable in this.
Boswell-But, then, sir, there arc
Masses for the dead?
Johnson-Why. sir, if 1t be at once
established that there are souls in
purgatory, it is as proper to pray for
them as for our brethren of mankind
who are in this life.
Boswel-The idolatry of the Mass?
Johnson-Sir, there is no idolatry in
the Mass. They believe God to be
there, and they adore Him.
Boswell-Thc worship of the saints?
Johnson-Sir, they do not worship
the saints; they invoke them; they on
ly ask their prayers.
Boswell-Confcssions
Johnson-Why, Il don't know but
that is a good thing: the Scripture
says: Confess your faults to one an
other;' and the priests confess as well
as the laity.'
