lnent lawyers hold consultation when

trusted to any of them. This Is an ex-
ceptional case II is one In which party

sonal friends of the Chief OF Police

minds. But the continual sloating OF

District Attorney to obtain judicial

blunders of the prosecution, cannot but
have bad effect upon public morals

Th4 statement Of the Japanese view

The statement OF the Japanese view
OF the recent assaults committed
against Japanese in San Francisco is
alive. That they are very largely due
10 race prejudice is probable, which
fact neither excuses nor palliatcs them.
They are an outrag e on the subjects Of
friendly power and a disgrace 10 tho
United States. The remedy is to pun
ish as severely as possible those who
commit them. Tho effort TO make them
appear as the result Of temporarily
peculiar conditions is fustian and an
insult To Japanese and American intel
ligence.

THE PRESIDENTS ADDRESS

The address Of President Roosevelt
on the occasion OF the unveiiing OF
the statue to General LAYTON is deNot-
ed chiefly 10 social and industrial prob
lens that confront the American peo-
pie today The policy Of the govern
ment on the question Of public con-
troll OF corporations Is clearly Defined
and as tho address hears every mark OF
careful preparation 1t is evidently III
tended as an answer to all questions
as to what that policy really Is.
The President holds that the rights
Of property arc tn less jeopardy from
the socialist and the anarchist than
from the predatory man of wealth
and thar the power Of the nation must
be exorted TO stop grimes Of cunning
no less than crimes OF violence. In
pursuance Of this policy the govern
ment should exercise control over
common carriers doing interstate ousI-
ness And this leuds the President TO a
further consideration OF the railroad
question, He recommends national
supervision over future issuance OF
stocks and bonds national incorpor-
alton that would give the roads the
seal of government approval such as
national banks enjoy; criminal prose-
cution Of any man who plumbers others

and sells them for fraudulent or selfish
interest. instead of applying the money
so acquired to the legitimate use OF the
road on whose proper'S the securities
were Issued: protection Of the honest

discIsimed any intention Of recon-

Shakespeare and Scenery.

1t is peculiar fact that, while
Shakespeare. of all dramatists, offers
the greatest opportunity for scenery,
he also, of all men who ever wrote, can
best do without 1t. In fact, / believe
Shakespeare owes his greatness in part
to the fact that he did not have any
scenery. He had to make everything
clear without it. That is why his lines
appeal to the mind as well as the ac-
ton Of the eye. Had he known differ
ent, said Daniel Frohman in the De-
lineator, Shakespeare would not have
been nearly so great, because he prob
ably never would have taken the pains.
However, the converse isn't true. We
are not hiding any Shakespeares be-
hind scenery today.

Caribou Horns.

Not one out of every ten female carl
bou has horns. When it does have
them they are much smaller than those
Of the bull. The horns of the female.
however, in general have many more
branches than those Of the bull. and
they are much more regularly and
finely formed. The cows carry their
horns much longer than the bulls. They
have been seen with their horns in the
month Of April. The old bulls she'd
their horns from the 10th to the last
Of November. They hardly ever carry
them after the month Of November
The young bulls shed theirs from the
first of December until the middle of
February. The younger the animal the.
longer he retains his horns.
