result of the ice giving way under

Mr.. Hughlin and Mrs. Patterson
left the house about $3.50 in the after
noon TO go skating. They started
across the slip presumably with the
intention Of putting on their skates
when they reached Bark island, near
by. About Is feet from shore the ice
began to crack. Mr.. Hughlin tried TO
shove his companion out of danger,
but she evidently became confused in
her fright and came back to his side.
Then the ice gave way and both fell
into the water. which is from 25 TO 80
feet deep at this point.
For a few moments Hughlin man.
aged to- support Mrs. Patterson and
swimming behind her piloted her to the
solid ice. He then swan to a point
opposite and started to climb out,
when he saw Mrs. Patterson slip back
into the water. He went to the res

down the second time. Witnesses say
that further efforts on Hughlin's part
were prevented by Mrs. Patterson.

Of No. 107 Boston boulevard, New

the Biblical manuscripts. held by Mr..

any way is the product OF the active
Imagination of people who don't know
what they are talking about.
They are valuable, but chiefly from
an archaeological standpoint, not a

Sanders. They will probably help to

We favor immediate revision of the
tariff by the reduction of import duties.
Articles entering into competition with
trust-controlled products should be
placed upon the free list; and material
reductions should be made in the tariff
upon the necessaries of life, especially
upon articles competing with such
American manufacturers as are sold
abroad more cheaply than at home,
and graduated reductions should be
made in such other schedules as may
be necessary to restore the tariff to a
revenue basis.
"A private monopoly is indefeaslble
and intoierable. We, therefore, favor
the vigorous enforcement of the crimi-
nal law against guilty trust magnates
and officials, and demand the enact
ment of such additional legislation as
may be necessary to make it impossi-
bic for private monopoly to exist in

Mr.. Taft's "Chief Function"
from New York World.

The cher junction Oh IHe next du-
ministration, says Mr.. Taft, will be to
clinch what has been done by Mr..
Roosevelt.
If MIR. Roosevelt had accomplished
wise reforms. if he had enforced the
laws against great offenders, if he had
assailed privileges anywhere with sue
cess. if he had refrained from stirring
up class prejudice and jingoism, if he
had had shown respect for the courts,
if he had not by violent speech put
blight upon business and industry, and
if he had not encouraged extravaganza
and waste, the sentence quoted above,
which accentuates the strangest and
the weakest chapter in the candidates
speech, might pass unnoticed.
It is to be considered, however, as
the central thought in an elaborate
eulogy of Mr.. Roosevelt. BY its own
terms it is to be interpreted as Mr..
Taft's most sweeping promises as to
himself. Unhappily it is his most
comprehensive view of the duties and
responsibilities OF the Presidency.
Discussing the policies of the present
Administration Mr.. Taft refers more
than once to 1.-THE moral standards set
by Mr.. Roosevelt" but Mr.. Roosevelt
has set no new moral standards. So
far as he has preached morality he has
upheld ideas that are as old as viliza-
ton. To be honest, to tell the truth,
to obey the law, to refrain from covet-
BUSINESS. 20 respect the rights of Others
and to live decently are not Roosevelt
policies. They were set up as moral
standards by pagan philosophers long
before the Christian era.
When we come to look for the true
Roosevelt policies we find inordlnate
Qualification of war, fondness of denun-
citation. contempt of law and of lawful
methods, suggests at one time that
the courts should usurp power and at
another that they are ignorant or cor
rupt and despicable, reckless of expen-
diture in every direction, indifference
to the Expectations OF a tariff-pro-
tected plutocracy and an avowed will
lingness on slight provocation to act
arbitrarily and sometimes despotically.
These are 1.-THE things" by which Mr..
Roosevelt, the things tina. are peculiar
to Mr.. Roosevelt and the things by
which Mr.. Roosevelt will be remember
ed. Shall they be ciinched? Are we
to understand that the chief function
of Taft Administrator will be to
clinch them?
/ The world disagrees most emphati-
cally with Mr.. Taft as to the chief
function of the next administration.
That function should be reform and re-
duction of taxation, retrenchment in
expenditures. strict observance of
law, the promotion of justice and
peace, the restoration of business con-
fdence and prosperity. the destruction
of privilege and the elimination of the
rancor of classism.
Mr.. Taft might accomplish much in
this direction if he were to follow his
own impulses. Attempting chiefly"
to glorify Mr.. Roosevelt's record as a
whole, he must inevitably invite disa. :
ter. complete and deserved for himself,
if he persists in being not President

Washington, Dec. U.s. -Vice.p President
Gomex's recent declaration that Vene-

construed in some circles a. meaning a
state Of war That inference Is appar.
entity justified by dispatch which came
TO the state department yesterday from
Paxton Hihben, the American secretary
Of legation At Bogota, in the United
States OF Colombia, transmitting a tele-
gram received by the minister OF foreign
affairs OF that country from Caracas,
dated the 18th inst. This telegram
says,
I'm view Of the blockade established
and the capture by the blockade OF a
Venezuelan vessel, the head of the gov
eminent OF Venezuela after assuming
extraordinary powers for the defense OF
the country has declared a state Of

was considered true invasion OF Ven.

against the Venezuelan government.
