On March last his nomination was re-
iected by the Senate. But he has per-
mitted his rejected postmaster to remain
to this day in quiet possession of his Of
fic,. This is denounced as fsgrant
violation of constitutional provisions,
laws and pyecedents, not to mention the
wounded dignity of the Senate. Senator
Taliaferro has presented in executive
session complete data concerning this
ALLEGED executive usurpation, and has
asked the reason for the retention in Of

THE New York life insurance COM
panies are paying the penalty of the
recent exposure of their mismanage-
ment. The report of the Superintendent
of the State Insurance Department shows
that there has been falling of In new
business to the extent of 1922, 600, 600,
and an actual decrease in insurance In
fore, since 1904 Of $50, 100000. This
showing is made more discouraging by
comparison with the business Of COM
psuies in other States showing 2 decrease
in the volume of business 10 the extent
of $Sl, 900, 900, but an increase Of insur
aucs in force OF 1874, 900, 900. Spscu-
lsting with the money of poicy-holders,

PRAISE FOR VIRGINIA

The Speaker was eulogistic of Vir
ginia and NIrginians. While OH thi
subject he told Of the struggle tina
made Illinois an abolition State, anC
said it was principally through TN,
efforts Of a legislator named Walker
from VIRGINIA, while opposing him
and UNFOLDING slavery was a man
from Massachusetts,.
The Speaker automatically suggest
ed that the Republican party might
be praised for the abolition of slavery,
~ 1t was apparent that the civil war
had benefited the white man Of the
south through releasing him from
the necessity Of contract with servile
labor.
so said Speaker Cannon in recent
speech. But for the fanatics Of the
North Virginia would have been
free State decades before an emanci-
patton proclamation was issued.

PECULlha PROPERTIES
OF new MEDICINE
Cooper Preparation Attracts Widespread At
tentiOn by Expelling Internal
Parasites.

The interest created in leading cities
during the past year by young Mr.
Cooper with his new preparation. is
largely accounted for by a peculiar
quality possessed by this medicine
which he calls his New Discovery.
Mr.. Cooper believes that internal
parasites, or tapewOrms. are respon.
sible for much i'll health. and II is an
undoubted fact that his medicine has
expelled immense numbers of these
creatures in various cities visited By
him. The young man also believes
that stomach trouble is the main cause
OF all i'll health. He claims that few
can have poor health with a good d.
gestion. He further claims that his
New Discovery medicine does nothing
but tone up the stomach. yet IT not
only expels the parasites. but relieves
many other ailments not as a rule as
ISOLATED with stomach trouble.

Nothing which has appeared in the
public prints for many day is Of
more far reaching import than is the
reply of Compers, leader OF the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, 10 recent
decision Of the supreme court on the
subject of the boycott. That decision
makes the Union responsible for dam
ages growing out of the boycott, and
has carried genuine unrest in the ranks
Of labor. The reply was drawn 10y
master hand and is a strong paper.
The significant feature of il consists in
It's reference To the Dread scott decision
which was made 10y the court prior 10
the civil war, and which is assigned as
one of the existing causes leading up
20 the war.
The writer recognizes thai the court
is that OF last resort, and from which
there is mo- appeal but that of reNolu-
ton itself Aud does this mean that
labor is ready 10 fight for what IL con-
sidr, 90 be It's rights We can draw F.
no other inference Either this or the F.
court must reverse itself. and this can
hardly be expected. The issue is a
serious one. I'm our opinion the court
was strictly right in the Dread Scott /.
decision. for il only said that the prop /
erty of citizen no matter where found l
should be returned To him, and that
the person hiding il was guilty of
crime. The decision was constitution
al, just and righteous, and so is the
present one, and if men are mad
enough to make it the cause Of reyo-
luton il will have 10 come.
A labor trust is as oppressive as is
any other form Of trust, and if the law
IAN be made TO restrain the one it
should the other. Organized labor is
'ommendable, but organized boycott
> essentially wrong. Our hope is
hat there will be no appeal from the
lecision Of our highest court, as APP
zeal means war. "War is h-l.n

HUGHES A HUMORIST

n college chum Of Governor Hughe
contributed readable article to Tn,
last issue Of Everybody's Magazine. il
which he presents to the reading pub
lie his college friend in new role. thai
of humorist, and at the same time
man Of warmth Of soul and cOnvivial
ity Of spirit. This was great surprise
to us as no doubt it was to the MANY
other readers Of the contribution.
The world only knows the Governor
as sternly reserve, proof against a
hearty laugh and veritable icicle in

New York's chief executive, and the
writer knows only the one and not the
other. Or he may refer only to col
lege days, and before the cares Of real
life had gathered, and the burden of
years been felt. Or the brother of the
inner circle of private life must not be
kin TO the brother who moves in the
larger circle of the outer world. But
the author Of the magazine descrip-
ton Of his friend must be more than
humorist and is positively funny.
He walls over the fact that the friend
of his boyhOOd days should have bee
dragged from the pleasant and prof.
table path Of professional life into the
miserable and moneyless position of I
public office. One can hear the splash /
of the tears as the author paints the
agony Of being torn from position i'm
the ranks TO that of commander-in-
chief, snatched from the bosom of his
family and thrown upon the stormy
sea of destiny, and then, strange to
say, the friend closes with well-nigh
frantic appeal that his friend should

upon streaming waters aud be made
