Trainers Of The sherman Law.

The charge has frequently been made
that the Sherman antitrust law is an
imperfect piece of legislation drawn up
LASTLY without a thorough study of
the problems involved. In an article
in the October McCmre's Burton j. Hen
drick shows that this is not true. OF
the trainers OF the measure he SAYS:
s"Nor were the trainers of this law
inexperienced Legislators who hastily
scrambled together measure TO meet
certain political exgeneies. The men
chiefly responsible for the antitrust law
were John Sherman of Ohio George +.
Edmnds of Vermont, George f. Hoar
OF Massachusetts,, George Gray of Della
ware, and James z. George Of Mississ-
ippi. Senator Spooner recently declar-
cd that no greater body OF lawyers ever
sat in Congress; no one would venture
TO contend that there is any similar
group of five men in Washington today.
Jonn Sherman had served almost con-
tinuously in Congress since 1854; he
had represented Ohio in the Senate
throughout the Civil War and the re-
construction period, displaying especial
talent in dealing with questions of ma
tional finance; and as secretary Of the
treasury in President Hayes cabinet,
had carried through with mastery sue
cess the resumption of specie payments.
George +. Edmunds was generally re-
garded as the greatest lawyer then in
the Senate. Starting his career in that
body in 1866 ne took an important part
in framing the legislation of the recon
struction period. George i. Hoar had,
BY 1890. represented Massachusetts in
the Senate for thirteen years; his
great learning, his comprehensive know
ledge of public questions, his indepen-
&C, his genuine devotion to the best pub
lie interests had made him one of the
most commanding figures In that body.
George Gray of Delaware, present
ridge Of the United States circuit court
and for for many years one Of the most
conservative forces in the Democratic
party-the same George Gray upon
whom many Of Mr., Bryan's opponents
hoped to unite few months ago as
the Democratic presidential nominee
was also recognized as one Of the Sen.
ate's greatest authorities on the consti-
tuition Senator George had served for
many eyars as chief justice of the su.
preme court Of Mississippi, and was the
author and compiler of many works on
law which are still widely used"

COOK is LOST IN ARCTIC.
The Explorer May Have camped for the
Winter in Greenland.

st. Johns, n. f., Oct. 5.--Althougn
Randolph Frank, who returned mere from
the Arctic regions on the Peary auxil-
larry steamer Erik this week, expressed
doubts as to the probable fate OF DIR.
+. A. Cook. the explorer, a more hopeful
view is taken by Captain Samuel Bart
lett Of the Erik
Capt. Bartlett Saturday expressed the
opinion that DR. Cook is safe and is at
present somewhere in Ellesmereland,
where there is plenty OF game.
DIR. Cook, accompanied by Frank, went
north last summer by the schooner Brad
ley. They established headquarters at
Annatok, 20 miles north of Etah. West
Greenland, and Dr. Cook started from
there on March last in an attempt 10
reach the pole. He was accompanied by
eight Eskimos.
The expedition was made with four
sledges and II teams of dogs, and an
abundance OF food for men and animals
was taken. On May Z one OF the Eski.
mos returned, bringing letter for Frank
from DIR. Cook, written at Cape Hubbard,
Western Ellesmereland, about go miles
southwest OF Cape Columbia, the north
ermost section OF the Arctic mainland
In this letter, which was dated March
II. DR.. Cox stated that ne hoped to
return the first week in june. lie in
structed Frank TO return to New York
if he had not reached headquarters by
that time.
Frank waited until the ice in Smiths
sound broke up, after which ne knew
that it would be impossible for DIR. Cook
to cross the % miles OF open water
in the sound, as he had no boat. Frank
then started southwark with two EsSi-
mos, hoping to connect with the wnalers
in southern Greenland. The journey was
one Of great hardship, Frank and his
companions being without fire or food
much of the time. Upon reaching North
Star bay they found the whaling fleet
and returned on one of the vessels to
Etah.
No further word having been obtained
from Dr. Cook, Frank obtained passage
home on the Erik, which left Etah late
in August Before leaving here for the
United States, Frank expressed the be-
lief that DR.. Cook must have persisted.
Captain Bartlett, however, believes DIR.
Cook took more time than he had eX-
pected in exploring West Ellesmereland
and that finding that it, was too late
for him to return to Annatok or Etah,
he established camp in Ellesmere-
land.

take place fraught with greater hope for
the welfare OF the people at large than
the congress which closed Saturday.
In the course OF his address the presi-
dent said:
Il could not deny myself the privilege
OF saying word OF greeting to this

ANOTHER THAw LEGAL POINT.
Sheriff Lane of Westchester County Not
in Contempt.

New York, Oct. 5.--Judge Archibald
in the United States court at Scranton,
Pa, Saturday afternoon decided that
Sheriff Charles Lane OF Westehester
county, New York, was not in contempt
of court in not having delivered harry
Il. Thaw into the keeping of a United
States marshal to be taken to Pittshurg
to answer in bankruptcy proceedings.
The reason for this was that Tnaw
was now cited in habeas corpus proceed
ings as to his sanity before Justice Mills
at White Plains, New York, and was
therefore in the jurisdiction Of that
court and not within the custody of
the sheriff. After the haheas corpus pro-
ceedings are over, Judge Archibald win
take further action.

habitants Of the place themselves.
And this last thought will lead them
TO an impressive recognition Of one
great advantage the inhabitants OF
small city have over their brethren
who dwell within the walls OF big
city.
Z These trees and these grasses and
these plants which we possess in hap
Ply abundance, all sieze upon the car
bon dioxide which we exhale from our
lungs, reconyert its carbon into yege-
table tissue, which, with the aid OF
sunlight .decomposes the carbon di-
oxide, retains its carbon and sets the
oxygen free. Oxygen is essential to
animal respiration and 1t is by an
insufficient supply of the life-gfving
gas and an excess of the carbon diox-
ide that pours forth from smoking
chimneys and settles within the high,
combining walls Of the huddled build
tngs in big city where the wind is
given little opportunity of sweeping
1t away and little help is received
from living plants in its disposition,
that makes city life, in this aspect,
far less healthful, and enjoyable and
vigorous than in such a place as the
comparatively little city of clarks-
burg.
So We are indeed fortunate in the
possession of our many trees, and our
pretty lawns and attractive shrub.
berry. No sitting. ill-proportioned air
interferes with our respiration. We
may not have so many high walls and
smoking chimneys and paved ground
and other things that go with the
large city of today, but we are not
SO unfortunate in that respect after
all. Those who are grumbling and
fidgeting about rushing OF to the
crowded city for a vacation visit to
see the sights ought to think the
matter over a bit and consider the in
ducements of the country.

the advantages Of living in a big city
during the beautiful summer weather,
where there are so many fine attrac-

to go, but 1t is questionable whether
these attractions can come near to
those offered by the small country

prefer to live in big city in this

selves In the rut. are apt TO look with
q somewhat jaundiced eye on the big
positions that are filled in the world
Of industry, the positions whose sal
aries are often greater than that of
the Chief Executive. The presidency
Of a big railroad system, says the
Washington Herald. is one that is
particularly open to inyidious attack,
and many people in humble positions
who hear about the steam yachts and
the munificent way or diving OF these
railroad "magnates' -that is fay-
orite term for them-think OF them
as children Of good fortune.
There is, we believe, a pretty gen
eral idea that the usual railroad
president is chosen from among the
rich; chosen from a circle of rich
men because of his influence and the
prestige his name will give to the Sc
curities of sthe road OF which he is
to be president.
1t is most interesting, then, to
learn from Harper's Weekly some
thing of'the antecedents of the presi-
dents Of some of the big railroads of
the country. So far from being men
with the "blue blood" of high
finance in their veins, the great ma
iority OF them we're born with a.
shovel In their hands, rather than
with silver spoon in their mouth.
By far the most of them began life
as common laborers, or just little
bit higher
President j. A. Edison, of the Kan
sas City Southern, was a telegraph
operator on the Lake Shore. Presl-
dent Underwood, of the Erie, was a
freight brakeman. President Earling,
I of the Chicago, Milwaukee and st.
Paul, was a telegraph operator.
President Harahan, of the Illinois
Central, was member of coRstruc-
ton gang. and became its foreman as
his first rise in the world. Theodore
Shonts, president OF the Glover Leaf,
who was president OF the Panama
Canal Commission, and whose daugh-
ter married duke. began his career
as water boy OF construction train
in Iowa. President Garrett, of the
Seaboard Air Line, was messenger
boy In the ST. Louis Union station.
NV. C. Brown, senior vice-president of
the New York Central, was a section
hand. President Murray, of the Bal
timore and Ohio, was a ticket seller
in Texas. President Stevens, OF the
Chesapeake and Ohio, was an office
boy with the Baltimore and Ohio.
President Newman, of the New York
Central was freight clerk on the
Texas Pacific. President futile. Of
the Boston and Maine, was a ticket
clerk. President Samuel NJ. Fenton,
of the Alton, was a rudman in Penn
sylvania, and President Smith, OF the
Louisville and Nashville. was tele-
graph operator.
Doubtless dozens of other instan-
ces might be given, not alone in the
railroad world, but in other indus
trial fields, but enough has been cited
to show something of the glorious OPP
portuntties this country holds. for.
men-real men! This opportunity,
open TO the poorest laboring man, is
one OF the greatest glodes of Ameri-
can institutions. 1t shows that the
declaration that high place is the re-
ward Of favor or dishonest dealing
is pessimistic, snarling lie. 1t
proves beyond a doubt that honest
merit wins in the long run, and that
in this country. above all others,
every man has his chance!
