evening delivered himself to The follow ing effect:
 Be stated at the outset that the newly iuaugurated National policie, had not in bis case been without their strong personal lDauence-su influence chat bad aroused in him keener sense of responsibility to hi, stockholders, towards the competition of the concern of which he was the official head, toward business men and toward the public generally; that the effect was an improved sense of relationship with all these, a consideration of the great business activities in which his concern Is euL aged on better basis and high CT plain, an acknowledgement of some thing of a decided moral purpose and control in it's purpose,
 The outlook of Judge Gary from this newly developed viewpoint Is Optimis- tic; he says a larger aud more lasting benefit that is to come from the reior- nation Of business methods.
 Give to this testimony the belief o' sincerity, aud it signifies a great deal most important of all, the working of the leaveu where the lump is most sodden. But even if the sentiments expressed are considered merely as mild and courtly aCquiescence in what is believed to be popular, the moral qualities of the policies in discussion is what makes them popular, and iu that fact lies the great promise of the National redemption,
 Whatever emphasis men may lay upon the faults of President Roosevelt, however glaring and obnoxious they may be to the one individual or class or to the other, the fact of high moral purpose in the polices he advocates preserves the meritot the latter against all assault.
 Appropriation does not lie solely with those who, as a class, Ire railers at wealth and all that the acquisition of wealth signifies. It comes, as well from the conservative middle class, net hitherto radical or consorting with rad realism. It Is based upon appreciation of honesty as a fact of popular consci- euce and 1t bespeaks the better con- dltious to which that appreciation is bound to lead.

TOMORROW THE CONVENTION MEETS

The second place is an important one iu a national campaign where there is any doubt about the election of the man for first place. This contingency does not arise in this campaign. What ever opposition may result from dislike Of Mir. Roosevelt or his methods or the feeling of dlstrust occasioned by he money strlugency, will be more than oyermatched by the division in the ranks of the democracy caused by the name of Bryan.
 Asa natter Of mere politlcs-that is as g maars of getting votes in the elect iou to iollow-New York's desire to be conceded that honor should DO doubt be gratifed, But the expressed desire of President Roosevelt is another very strong evidence of his sympathy with the west. He wants Deliver of Iowa, drss choice, and for the second choice Piles of Washington. This should De particularly astteriug to Piles, so lately entered 10 the arena oI national politics. Piles says he does not want it and Dol liver has not yet been heard from. If Piles really does not want 1t 1t is prOba- bly because he prefers to hold fast to his present digni6ed office than to sit for while as presiding officer over a body from which he might have to per maneutly retire at the end of bis term. Senator Deliver may be thinking along the same lines.
 As for New York's man, Hughes does not want it, that is certain. Hughes is man of deeds and the SC. clusion oG the vice-presidency Is not likely to invite him. He is timber for nrss pIaeO aad will likely UUme iuIU hIs own iu due time. Whether or not Deliver or Piles are of the sort to be trusted in place where it might fall 80 easily to either to have the responsi- billty of the presidency thrust upon them, is another question. Deliver is one Of the most eloquent men in the senate and a man Of much personal magnetism, aud will be force in the campaign. It seems likely he will be the choice. He Is fifty years of age and looks about forty, full of fire and ener. gy, with many gcaces Of manner.
 Tomorrow the convention meets to do it's interesting work.

The Poor EE.C0nDlct.

The Poor EI Convict.
JUST at present the ex-convict seems to be get
ting bis share of approbrium in connection with the
sensational case in San Francisco. Much of this
sensatonalism is unwarranted by the facts, but
someone must suffer for the sins of commission and
omission made and it seems quite natural to many
that an exc convict should be made the scapegoat.
1t is true that the man was ex-convict but it is
also true that for twenty years he had lead honest
life was good husband, kind father and taxpayer
When drawn upon the jury he did all that he posi-
bly, could to be released, realizing that his past
might he discovered
For twenty years this unfortunate man strove to
bury the hateful past, to be man among men, only
to be confronted by the danger of being found out
and pushed back into the Shiny, creeping under
world of sin and shame. When the expose came he
saw his past featured in Dig display type his bust
ruined and his friends passing him without
any recognition. Is it any wonder that his bestia
passions gained the supremacy and caused him to
grope for the who shattered his earthly temple,
and at word destroyed twenty years of supreme
effort toward honesty and responsibility Prosecutor
Heney is deserving of all the kilograms of sympathy
he is receiving, but one seems to remember the
griefstricken wife and the faheress children Such
sorrow as theirs must effect the angels high for
it could not be much greater.

OUicE Justice.


EVERY now and then someone will compare the
European procedure of justice with that of America
and always to the discredit of the latter They in
variably deplore the plodding slowness with which
the wheels of justice appear to revolve in this
country, and in many their criticism has some
basis of foundation. Still, the indictment is unjust
and is not warranted by actual conditions.
The celebrity in which the rich Chicago real
estate dealer arrested, convicted and sentenced
to the penitentiary should forever silence those who
are want to assai the slowness Of the judiciary in
America. This mans case was disposed of in four
hours, and is by means the quickest case on re-
cord It all criminal trials rushed thru in the
same space of time and eventually it discovered
that an injustice had been committed to some of
them, undoubtedly the same critics who today find
fault with the slowness of the judiciary would also
severely arragn the courts for not carefully inves-
eating the alleged facts before pronouncng sentence
Celebrity is to be commended, but accuracy is Of
vastly more Importance.
The law that prevails in many states which en-
ables to plead guilty before awaiting indict-
ment by the grand jury is steadily growing in pop
ularity. 1t not only a long delay in waiting
for trial. but saves the taxpayers many thousands of
dollars.

RNce to Die.

PROFESSOR WILCOX, of the Cornell University,
has figured it out that the human race would disap-
pear in the year 2O2S His prediction is based on
the alarming decrease in the birthrate since 1860,
and has been calculated with precision and care.

colleges and universities but what occasionally in

carefully prepared estimates are sometimes proved
incorrect by the most trivial of causes. If at the
present time the for pet dogs and Teddy bears

be very misleading by several centuries at least.

II Terrible C0D1pnriSon.

II ZeTTIbLe Comparison.
A SPEAKER before recent meeting of the liter
airy club of the University of Chicago remarked that
he could difference between the SO called
smart set and the hobo The elite of society have
been called many harsh things by those who do not
approve of the way they themselves but
seldom have they been compared to such poor
specimen of manhood as the hobo. The inference
is plain, but rather fattering to the hobo.
Many of the singing rebukes hurled at the
smart set simply for effect- advertise the
speaker Any with iota of common
knows that half of the rubbish we read about the
doings at Newport are fiction. In our eagerness to
hoist petard we forget own danger. It is the
same with the alleged smart set. We seem to forget
that they are excellent mediums for distributing
wealth. Their extravaganza puts thousands of
dollars in circulation and often they do not get their
moneys worth.
On the other hand, your simon-p pure hobo is alb
solutely nonproducer. Occasionally he discovers
broken rail and flags express train, thus saving
hundreds of persons from injury death. If those
who can afford it would cease for year to give
tertainments pink teas and lawn tennis parties and
spend only enough for the necessaries of life, why
there would indeed be angry howl from the dress
maker, florist decorator, musician, entertainer, etc

the rich instead of censoring them.

dry, and that in counties it is impossible to get
even any snake-bite medicine. If this aggressive
campaign against the liquor traffic continues for q
few more years it will behoove historical soci
cites to get busy before the business becomes entire
ly extinct. An engineer telegraph operator whose
brain is muddled by the excessive of liquor is
not safe to trust with the handling of thou
sands of dollars worth of property and hundreds of
lives.

HONOrS Lost.


JOHN j. HAYES has finally admitted that Doran-
do is his peer in long distance foot race. for the
little italian easily beat him at Madison Square
Garden. In many quarters it was freely admitted
that Mr.. Hayes Marathon victory a
techncality and since that event Dorandos admirers
have been trying to get up another to prove the
mettle of the two men. In this they succeeded
and Mr.. Hayes lost his title champion.
The winner of the Marathon medal owes his de-
feat to too much confidence. He might have rested
on his honors and reaped golden harvest before
entering another event. Instead, he jeopardized all
and is defeated has been. Mr.. Hayes might
just we'll present Dorando with the trophy he won
in England on technicality, for the from
Italy has demonstrated his claim to it. Will he
do it?

The laboring classes of London appear to be in

upon the aggressveness of the leaders. The ruling

Court Decision on New Point.

Columbus, o. - Judge Safer of
the United States court handed
down a decision Monday hitherto un-
precedented in Ohio, in conenction
with the case of Blanch F. Brown
against the Sunday Creek Coal Co.
Blanch Brown brought suit against the
defendant for $4,000 damages for
wrongful death. This petition was
challenged by demurrer filed by the
defendant, which was sustained by
Judge Safer in his opinion. Section
301 of the revised statutes of Ohio pro-
vides that If man is killed in the per-
formance of his duty in mine through
the carelessness of the owner, his es-
tate shall receive not to exceed $10,-
600 in damages. Judge Safer ruled
that the suit for damages must be
brought by wife or lineal heirs of the
deceased and not by an administrator
or administrative. The court declares
that no Ohio court has ruled on this
question, but that it has been held by
judges in Indiana, Illinois and Missouri,
each of which states has a statute
law whose provisions are substantially
the same as those of Ohio, that the ad-
ministrator is not the proper person
to sue, has no standing in court, and is
not entitled to recover

INSPECT SUSPECTED STOCK
Ohio Authorities Looking Sharply
After Animals Shipped In.

Columbus, O.-With Michigan on
the one side and Pennsylvania on
the other under federal quarantine
because of foot and mouth disease
among cattle, Ohio is just now the
cause of much anxiety to both state
and federal authorities. Tuesday
morning DR.. Paul Fischer, state
veterinarian, will go to Springfield to
Inspect two carloads of milch cows
with calves which came from the west,
presumably from Chicago, by way of
Detroit, which Is under quarantine, to
Cincinnati and thence to Springfield.
1t Is not known that they are infected,
but there Is danger because they were
in the infected stockyards of Detroit,
and DR.. Fischer will carry with him
authority from the federal government
either to kill or quarantine the cattle
as he may deem best. While he is in
Springfield his assistant, DR.. Morgan
d. Lamb, will be on his way to Rich
wood, Union county, where a farmer
reports the presence of sore mouth
among a herd of 1900 sheep he re-
Gently purchased in Chicago. If 1t Is
the disease they will be slaughtered,
buried and the appraisement for
warded to the government. All
slaughtered stock is paid for, two
thirds by the federal government and
one-third by the state government
