DEATH OF SENATOR PROCTOR.

A great vacancy has been made in
the Congress Of the United States, in
the ranks of the Grand Army of the
Republic, in the State of Vermont and
in the circle of our most honOred and
public-spirited citizens by the unexpect-
ed death of Senator Redfield Proctor at
his apartments in this city, March 4.
Senator Proctor was magnificent
specimen of that sturdy, inflexibly up
right, capable, courageous Yankee man
hood which has been of such immense
value to the country. He was one of
those quiet, earnest, high-thinking men
who are capable of anything, either in
tellectual effort or moral elevation. in
times of greatest urgency. He was born
in Proctorsville, VT, June l. 1881, and
had the usual training and education
of a Vermont boy at that time. He
graduated from a law school. and had
begun to practice when the war broke
out. He promptly enlisted in the Sd
VT, splendid regiment, in which he
rose to be a First Lieutenant, and was
taken on the staff of Gen. William f.
Badly Smith as an Aid. He participated

A paragraph is going the rounds that
a London horticulturalsociet is to give
a bounty of two cents for every queen
wasp" brought to it's show next Sum-
mer. If this be true. it will afford ex-
citing amusement for the English boys
during the next few months. In the
first place. there is no such a thing as
queen wasp, like a queen bee. The
wasps are divided into social and
solitary" The social wasps include
the hornets. and they seem to consist
of males, females and workers, with
the males standing more on an equality
with the females than is the case with
bees. The solitary wasps, the spider
wasps, tarantula killers. potter wasps,
digger wasps, mud wasps. sand wasps,
etc, seem to pair off like the higher
animals. They are of great service in
killing off spiders. caterpillars and vari-
Gus other noxious insects, which they
store in their nests as food for the
young.

Methodist Church trials are usually
pretty lively functions. but we are prom
ised an entertainment of quite an un-
usual kind if the Rev. James r. Day.
LII D.. Chancellor of Syracuse Univer-
sity. is brought to trial on the charges
preferred by Rev. George A. Cooke,
oastor of the Methodist Church in Bran
don. VT. These charges go to Rev. DR..
r. M. Waters. Presiding Elder of the
New York Conference of the Methodist
Church. Mr.. Cooke alleges that DR..
Day violated the rules of the Church in
assa iling the President. and his offense
comes clearly under the discipline
against speaking evil of Magistrates"
His specification alleges the following
extract from DIR. Days book, "a Raid
on Prosperity"
Anarchy of the sort practiced by
President Roosevelt is the most dan
gerous kind of anarchy Anarchism in
the White House is the most periious
anarchsm that has ever threatened our
country. 1t means anarchy if the Judges
are to be set aside and their verdicts
held up to criticism by the President.
Mr.. Cooke is a fighter, and has been
prominently before the public in pre-
vious trials. where he arraigned profess
sors in theological institutes and an
editor of the Christian Advocate for
heresy. DIR. Day pooh-poohed Mr.. Cooke
and his charges, but as Cooke is in
earnest he will probably have to answer
them

MONUMENT TO WIRZ.
A Southern Woman Expresses Herself
FOrcibly and Well.

Editor National Tribune: I am a
Southern woman, raised not a great dis
tance from AndersOnville, and I want
to return thanks to the eX-Confederate
soldier who recently expressed the SEN
timents of all right-thinking, Christian
hearted people over the South on the
subject of the WirZ Monument
movement A blacker and more
disgraceful blot never stained any
soil than that Andersonville Prison.
and it is indeed humiliating to
realize that there are within the borders
of our fair Southland women who are
anxious to brand themselves with such
a stigma as raising a monument to SO
heartless a brute as WirZ is known to
be by thousands of Southern and North
ern men alike. The Daughters of the
Confederacy are to be pitied for the
lack of information that would bring
TO their fair cheeks the blush of shame.
if these young women knew the truth
as it is about Andersonville Prison and
the horrible sufferings inflicted by Wirz
on those helpless prisoners. There is
near by an ex-Confederate soldier. who
was one of the guard at the Anderson
cfpled villain than Wirz never lived.
God grant that they may stop and con-
slider the light they are placing them
selves in before the whole world, and
also consider the interests of the coun-
try generally and of Atlanta specially.
and put that money to relieve the real
needs of Confederate veterans and Wild
ows, and thereby win for themselves
the (now doubtfun respect of all honor
able people thruout this and other
countries-A Southern Woman.

The attempted assassination of the
Chief of Police of Chicago and the reve-
lation of plot to murder others by the
Anarchists has called forth general
movement to expel these dangerous
characters from the country. The pciice
of all the cities are active in ferretins
out ayowcd Anarchists. in breaking up
meetings and repressing them generally,
while the immigration officers arc be-
coming more strict in the examination
of the arrivals from Europe Secretary
Strauss has issued orders for a very
strict scrutiny of aliens arriving in this
country. very effective method has
been suggested by the Boston police
that all well-known Anarchists have
small mark tattooed on some visible
portion of the body. which mark shall
be only known to the international po-
lice of the world. This proposition will
undoubtedly meet with vehement outcry
by those goody-goody sentimentaiists
who get voeiferous at every suggestion
of branding dangerous Characters. but t
ought to be carried out all tsl,, same,

Emma Goldman. the noted Anarchist,
is threatened with deportation, but she
pleads her rights as an American citi-
zen. She says that her father was nat
uralized when she was II years old,
which gave her naturalization when she
can or should shield Emma, and it is
possible that her deportation might
bring us into conflict with some of the
European countries who decline to re-
ceive her. We have no more reason to
dump her upon a European country
than for those countries to dump their
undesirable citizens upon us. 1t seems
to us that there is another way in which
Emma might be treated with good re-
suits. The Chicago Police Courts have
a very elastic Interpretation of disorder
ly conduct, which they make apply to
anything that is disagreeable to the
public sense of decency. Under this
they can send Objectionable characters
to the workhouse for period of not
exceeding two years. Why not run
Emma in under the charge of disorderly
conduct, to which she is certainly liable,
and give her a spell of two years in the
workhouse washing clothes and doing
similar hard labor for the benefit of the
other prisoners. If she has no change
of heart at the expiration of two years
the dose might be repeated.

Jack Tredwell, Japanese interpreter
at Salt Lake City, adds a mite to the
worlds interest by the announcement
that he has been offered $3.50 month
by the Japanese Government to send it
descriptions of the mines ard fortifica-
tions on the Pacific Coast The Gov
ernmept might as we'll tell Mr.. Tired
well to go ahead and take the money
The mines and Notifications would be
tmong the least things that Japan would
have to encounter in the event of .

would be changed marveiously at tn,
instant that trouble became imminent
If Japan wants to pay $3.50 q month
out of her depleted treasury, we shoult
be glad TO have some American citizer
get the money.

Great Britain is never free from a
war scare, and the scare of a war with
Germany has for years been particu-
aarly persistent. II has become fragrant
recently by letter from Kaiser Wilhelm
10 Lord Tweedmouth, First Lord of the
Admiralty, in relation to the British
naval policy. The London Times, in an
angry editorial, has demanded the pub
iication of the letter, and the matter
has been made one Of Cabinet discus
sion. Mr.. Asquith went on the floor ol
the House Of Commons to explain thai
the letter was purely a personal matter
but this explanation does not satisfy
and the people are deeply excited BY
various versions OF what the letter con-
fains. .---- -

nearly 100000 inhabitants. This will
put her in a class with New York and
Pennsylvania and ahead of all other
States in the Union. In 1900 New York
had I.26S.S94 people. while Pennsylva-
MIA had 6,S02,115. Next came Illinois,
with 4.S21,550, and Ohio. with 4.15f,545.
As Texas. however. is about six timtJ
as large as New York. about FIVE times
the size of Pennsylvania and seven times

of room for a vastly greater increase of
population

The teachers in the New York
schools favor a restoration of corporal
punishment, which they claim has been
made necessary by the large admixture
of children of foreigners who cannot
be controlled in any other way than by
the rod. These children come from the
poorest of homes and degrading sur.
roundings, and behave in frightfu
manner in school. cursing and swearing
before the teachers and children and
making other exhibitions which are de
roralizing to the school. They are no
amenable to any of the influences by
which Americans can be controlled, anG
the discipline of the school suffers un.
5peakably from it.

his authority must have some instant
and ready means for compelling OBJ
streperous persons to obey his decisions.
1t may be that there is some legislation
necessary to better define the power of
Judge in contempt cases. but it would
seem that to make every such case a
matter of trial by jury would be to de-
stroy the Judges power. and throw him
into an attitude of defendant in every
dignity of his court.
The establishment of an eight-hour
day by National law is another of those
! dangerous invasions of States Rights
which it is amazing that a Democratic
convention should propose. The proper
place for legislation of such matters of
| intimate domestic nature. as the regula-
ton OF hours of labor, is absolutely and
unqualifedly in the Legislatures of the
several States. There is nothing in the
Constitution to warrant such an inva-
| sion of States Rights.
Employers liability is another inva-
sion of States Rights in all cases except
tilOSe VI IdiiIoduS uOlHS an Hilti Stitc
business. 1t is startling to suggest that
the Government should enter the States
| to regulate the liability of employers,
as it is that it should undertake the
| management of the banks in every little
country town.
The restriction of Asiatic immigration
! is proper declaration that all parties
are agreed to and have been for years.
Separate Statehood for Arizona and
| New Mexico is unobjectionable. and
public opinion has generally come to the
conclusion that it will be unwise to join
| those two Territories into one State.
The gist of the whole thing is in the
last plank, which declares for Mr.. Bryan
for President. IT means that the main
| thing is to elect MIR. Bryan President,
and he is willing to profess anything
| that will attract voters.

France may be expected to throw
another fit over the announcement OF
a possible marriage between Princess
Victoria Louise and King Manuel IL, OF
Portugal. For centuries France has
regarded the Iberian Peninsula as ker
own separate bailiwick, and has fought
great wars to secure its control. The
war of 1870, in which France was
crushed by Germany. was on account OF
the offer of the Spanish throne to q
Hohenzollern Prince. England will pos.
sibly have something to say. because
she has had particular relations to Por.

Tho the immense pigeon roosts that
were once plentiful in the North have
disappeared and one rarely sees wild
Georgia They are SO plentiful that
dove hunts are organized. and in one
of these recently party of hunters
killed 5000 birds in a few hours. Just
what attractions such wholesale slaugh-
ter can have for any man is beyond
the mind of ordinary people. Pretty
soon we shall hear from that region
that they are being devoured by insects

The mortuary statistics show that
everywhere in the Northern States the
death rate among the colored people is
muchhigher than for the whites. For
the first time the mortality reports have
been collated according to color. and
these show that in Is Northern States
the death rate of negros is PSI, or more
than 60 per cent higher than the white
death rate of 17.2. The colored people
seem to be much more susceptible to
pulmonary troubles. whooping cough,
malarial fever and typhoid fever. They
show less death rate from scarlet
fever, cancer and diabetes.

Japan is putting m very stiff bluff
against China. She can do it with per-
feet safety up to the point where the
injustice is not so apparent as to arouse
China's friends. China's administration
is almost as badly demoralized as that
of Russia. She is in no shape to resist
any demand backed by the power of
the japanese navy, and the conscious
ness of this emboldens Japan. There
have been number of occasions when
Japan has acted very arrogartly toward
China, but in this last it seems as if
she had more reason than in some 9TH
ers. A Chinese war vessel captured a
Japanese merchant steamer in Japanese
waters, upon the ground that she was
insurgents. Japan complains most bit
terIy of the Chinese officials hauling
down the japanese flag and hoisting
that of China instead. The Chinese re-
ply to the Japanese that they acted
strictly in accordance with international
law. and their action was sustained by
the discovery of "a cases of rifles and
40 cases OF ammunition consigned 10 a
Chinaman While the japanese say that
they do not intend war, yet they are
concentrating their fleet near the Chi
nese coast in a most threatening man

edly Japans determination to overawe
China, to bring her definitely under
Japanese influence, and retard as much
as possible her coming into closer rela-
tions with other powers.

GOV. IoHNsoN,s CANDIDACY.

The State motto of Minnesota is
LEtoile du Nord," the Star of the
North" and it may be that she is to be
the star of the rehabilitated and reju-
venated Democracy. The Democratic
State Committee of Minnesota met at
st. Paul March 6, and were overwhelm-
ingly and enthusiastically for Gov. John
A johnson for Democratic nominee for
the Presidency. The Bryan advocates
were in minority of 90 to 6S. as shown
by two test votes, and the Johnsonites
treated them without mercy. No Bryan
delegate had any rights worth while
considering. A resolution was adopted
that Gov. Johnson had twice brought
victory to the Democracy in Minnesota.
and during his incumbency had insti-
tuted more reforms and brought about
more remedial legislation than had been
known in any equal period of the his
tory of the State. The nomination OF
Gov. johnson will form the lines in the
party thruout the country. The safe
and sane" Democrats, the men who
really believe in the principles of Jeffer-
son ana the previous trduitlOuS OF tle
party, will now array themselves under
Gov. Johnson's banner, while those who
are taking advantage of the Democratic
organization to proclaim principles ad-
verse to old-time Democratic ideas will
rally around Bryan. 1t will be highly
interesting to watch the division and
the progress that the Johnson boom will
make within the next few weeks.

The amendments proposed by the
Senate to this bill will add to the
amount carried by the bill as passed
by the House, for the estimated 10000
widows who may apply because of the
removal of the restriction as to date of
marriage, $2,SS0,000; and will take
away from the amount carried by the
bill as it passed the House the amount
providing for widows of soldiers of the
Regular Army, widows of soldiers and
sailors of the War with Spain, and
the minor and helpless children now
on the rolls at sS per month, which,
under the provisions of the bill as
passed by the House. would have been
increased to $12 per month-$223,1 152.
In all probability the Senate will pass
the bill this week. or at least within a
few days. when it will be returned to
the House and sent to conference. As
the difference between the two Houses
is over some relatively unimpOrtant de-
tails, there is no doubt that the Con-
ference Committee will speedily reach
a decision and the bill become a law.
