ernor higgins Resorted to More
Cruel Punishment Than The
Sentence Of Death
Passed on Him.

Washington, ID. C., Nov. 1e.-The
petition of Albert T, Patrick, the
lawyer who is serving a life sentence
in the state prison at Sing Sing on
the charge of having murdered Mil
lonaire William M. Rice, for a writ
of habeas corpus. was decided today
by the supreme court of the United
States, adversely to the prisoner.
Patrick in his petition charged
that the case against him was a con-
spiracy and urged that in committing
the death sentence imposed upon him
by the court to life imprisonment
Governor Higgins had resorted to Z
more cruel punishment. He asked
release upon the theory that the
whole proceeding was unconstitution-
al and invalid.
The decision of the court was an
nounced by Chief Justice Fuller
Against Revolutionists.
The supreme court today also re-
fused TO admit to bail Flores Magon.

Rome. Nov. 16.-Fifty years Of ser-l
vice to the Catholic church marked
by this date, have not crushed out
the gantleness and almost simple boy
ishness of Pope Plus X, who is today
celebrating his golden jubilee, havn
been ordained a priest half centur
ago.
Priesthood, bishopric, cardinalate
have each seemed to play their part
in mellowing his life into a gentle
ness that well befits the popular Idea
of his station.
Giuseppe Sarto, born in 1888, in a
soldiers lowly family, was educated
at Treviso and Padua. and spent his
whole life, until his elevation to the
papacy, in northern Italy. His per-
sonal qualities are marked. The
italian government objected to his ell
ovation to the patriarchy of Venice
in 1898, claiming the right to name
the patriarch. An argument ensued
in which the government yielded be-
cause of the extremely satisfactory
personality OF Sarto.
Hts rneAsiy end simplicity won
him the love of all. August 3, 1903,
after six fruitless ballots, he was
elected pope after fighting against the

Boston, June 1.-The announcement that District Attorney John Brown Moran of Suffolk County was afflicted with tuberculosis and would be obliged to leave Boston at once for the Adiron- dacks for an indefinite period marks a halting place in the career Of one of the most picturesque characters who has ever held office in the common wealth.
 True to his sobriequet of the nlan who dares," the District Attorney is not at all cast down by the verdict his physicians have found against him.
 My physician tells I've got to destroy the tuberculosis bugs or they VIII destroy me-" said Mir. Moran. Irs tough news. but told my physician that the germs must get the best of me for a while possibly, but will get the best of them in the end, for after I'm dead I'll have my body cremateo and burn them alive"
 The District Attorney went on: If can I'm going to come back to Massa- chusetts, be governor of this state yet If 1t was not for these bugs I should have tried it this fall. even if l didn't have any voice. What's more, after get to be governor, if do. if any one wants me to be vice-President, I'll pc that too"
 By his indomitable will John E Moran forced himself into the pubic eye as few other men have done in | this state. Year after year he was a candidate for District Attorney of Suf- | folk County, and finally in 1905. run ming as an Independent Democrat he | finally succeeded in defeating District Attorney Sughrue.

Congressman have never lost an oppor- tunity to pour hot shot into the candi- dacy of Secretary Taft. and right along they have advised organized labor to work and vote against Judge Taft In the event he Is the Republican candi- date for the Presidency this year. The two Congressman referred to are Cary of Milwaukee and McDermott of Chi cago. The former is a Republican and the latter Is Democrat. They com menced life in their respective cities as messenger boys. then became telegraph operators, and each stlll holds member ship in the telegraphers' union.
 They introduced during the last ses- sion a number of bills in favor of la- Dor organizations. Time and again in speeches delivered before the unions here they scored unmercifully the Re- pubiicans because they strangled in committee most of the measures de- manded of Congress by the labor or- gaplzations.
 What makes these people so ferocious against Secretary Taft is his attitude States Judge. They are holding up against him several decisions which they say speak for themselves.
 Throughout the contest waged for Taft delegates to the Chicago conven- ton the managers of the Secretary of War were careful to try to explain away the decisions. and to make it ap- pear if possible that Judge Taft has never been the foe of organized labor that his accus sers say he Is.
 Gompers and his lieutenants have made no bones in declaring that they intend to make savage warfare at the polls this year upon many of the lead ing Republican members of the House of Representatives on account of the deaf ear given to the appeals made by labor during the recent session of Con- gress. They say that they are going to do their utmost to bring about the defeat of Speaker Cannon. They charge him with blocking all the bills they thought ought to have been passed.
 The measure they desired more than any other Is the anti-injunction bill. which even President Roosevelt tried to have Congress enact. The House Republicans held a caucus on this proposition and talked It over for two nights. but would not come to decis- ion, but simply let the matter go over.
 John Sharp Williams saw an oppor- tunity to embarrass the Republicans and he told the "kickers" in old Uncle Joe's' camp that if they would get up the necessary amount of nerve and break away from the Speakers rule there would be Democratic votes enough 10 euADlc Lnem 10 put LnFOu8n the bill. or Congress would have to re- main here until December 1.
 If Gompers and his followers do moi cool down, and they carry out all the threats they have made, there Is cer- tainly going to be great slaughter oi Republican candidates for Congress next fall.
 It is a remarkable fact that these labor people have not complained of ka Tk then only too natural that if they stay mad 1t is their bounden duty to mow down the Republicans in November ii they would really impress politicians with the power of labor.
