The New Administration.

The KEYNOTE of the new administration
is obedience to law Judge Taft himself
has sounded, il. 1t was enthusiastically
received Addressing a body of business
men, the victor in Tuesdays contest spoke
last night for prosperity under the law,
and his hearers rose to him with ap-
proval. The country will follow suit. In
that sign We shall conquer.
If anybody asks, Why have emphasized
so plain point? let him recall the dis
closures of the last few years in the bust
ness world In many quarters not only
was law being violated. but practices pre-
vailed which in good reason called Tor
prohibition. Men, alone or in combina-
ton, with cunning and large resources
were a law unto themselves. They had
adopted the Vanderbilt motto. and were
swimming in privilege and gain. Inc
public be DID,. Trusts were in their
glory. Railroads were building or break
ing down towns. fixing their own prices
on commodities and making and unmak-
ing public servants.
In New York state the very dreSs of the
population-the race track Samblers-ob-
serving what was going on at the top
impudently copied it. They set up for a
law unto themselves. Racing should go
on according to their chart and interests.
What had Gov Hughes to do with 1t?
Let him beware. If he made any more
noise he would be pulled down at the
polls and a man put in office who would
keep his place.
When the great body of the people got
a square look at the situation they Won
dcred. For a moment it seemed incredible
that such outlawry should for so long a
time have gone practically unchallenged.
Then as the wonder grew Indignation
grew, so that when President Roosevelt,
moving first, and Gov. Hughes, coming
into office later. took up the gage of bat
tie, sentiment for the law took immediate
form. Congress had all necessary popu-
lar support in it's enactments to ''shackle
the cunning of the big lawbreakers.
while the Legislature at Albany had the
support necessary to show the gamblers
their limit.
Judge Taft and Gov. Hughes went be-
fore the country on their records and the
records of their party, and both were SUI
perbly Endorsed. No more impressive
majorities have ever been achieved than
stand to the credit of those two men.
The one man goes into the White House.
ana the Otner remains AT Albany, IN
structed by the people to execute all the
law now on the books and ask of the
lawmaking authorities such additional
statutes as may be necessary to conserve
and strengthen all public interests.
Judge Taft. speaking first, pledges him
self to obey instructions. Gov. Hughes,
in turn. will do likewise. They will con-
tinue what both have done much to help
inaugurate-'the reign of law All ac-
tivities within the law are encouraged to
90 full speed ahead. All without the law.
and defiant of the law. are warned to
ring their backing bells and withdraw
from the course. A word to the unwise,
spoken by such men. should be suffi-
cient.
There may be murmurs. Lawbreakers
have no good opinion either of the law
or of officials who execute the law, but
such influences are not today potent in
our affairs.

The Turning of the Tide.
From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Reports both from New York and the
European points where most emigrants
take ship for America indicate that the
tide of human migration which, first
checked by the industrial crisis Of last
fall, later became movement in she op-
posite direction, has again turned and
is now moving west. For months more
foreigners were leaving America for Eu.
rope than were leaving Europe for Amer
lea; then the one movement practically
balanced the other. Now, as figures
show, the foreigners are coming back
The movement Of foreigners to and from
America has long been accepted as a
barometer of industrial conditions here.
If labor is in demand 1t is inevitable
that Europeans will be coming here in
large numbers: if there is suspension of
business activities immigration will run
low or cease entirely, while any prolong-
ed condition of stagnation will set the
current of migration in the opposite di-
rection That SO many are coming this
way at present is an indication of conf
dence in returning prosperity. And it has
nothing to do with politics.

Revival of Business.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.

Those corporations and business men
whose judgment and courage anticipated
the inevitable revival of trade are as
sured of their reward. Those who are
now most prompt to join the onward
movement are most likely to come out
ahead. Everybody has perceived for
months past that the country was in a
condition to go forward and was await
ing only the removal of all remaining
doubts and the full restoration OF conf
dence. This has come with the salts
factory result of the presidential cleo
ton. There is nothing now in the way Of
the resumption of normal activity which
will give employment 10 both capital and
labor. While both are awaiting employ
ment is the opportunity for profitable en-
terprise.

r1ason's Hot Fight.

It is stated with every evidence of satisfaction by
the Pittsburg Christian Advocate that "ex-Senator
Mason is making hot fight in Illinois for the seat
now held by Senator Hopkins, and the ground of
his claim is the record of Senator Hopkins the
Reed Smoot case
The Christian Advocate says that Mr., Hopkins
the Smoot champion in committee and on the
floor of the Senate, and that 'he went further and
Inundated himself in the defense of the po-
lygamous hierarchy than any other Senator, and
that is saying great deal"
This Christian newspaper is certain that Mr.. Hop
kns descendants will be ashamed of his record,
which is postponing the day of judgment beyond the
necessities of the hour Retrbution ought to be
immediate ought to be placed in the hands of
the Illinois Legislature the next time it meets in
Senatorial
The Advocate, which is representative of the
Methodist church, says further that Mr.. Hopkins
lis shown to have been the tool of the Mormon
church and in effect the apologist for polygamy."

A Suggested Amendment.

Mr.. Bryans Commoner alleges that antitrust
legislation will be proposed by Republican leaders
during the current session of Congress, but that an
effort will be made to so amend the Sherman act
to leave to the judges of courts the interpreta-
ton of the characters of trusts.
The suggestion that attracts attention contemplates
the insertion of the word unreasonable" in the act
that, instead of prohibiting combinations in re-
strant of trade, it would prohibit combination in
unreasonable restraint of trade. The court could
then decide whether restraint was reasonable
reasonable and there would ensue more friction be-
tween the executive and the judicial departments of
the Government.
With the furry in finance and the effort of leaders
of the Republican party to charge the disturbance to
the administration attacks monopoly, the Senate
will be inclined to make little hay for the trusts
while their sun of favor is shining.

The Value of Walking.

tFrom the P1ttSburg DlSpatch.)
The wise woman is counteracting the
effects of heated houses and lack of
exercise during the winter months by
taking long walks in these beautiful
days. Walking is a fad, but so bene-
fetal that the owners of horses and
autos are accepting it, particularly
when overburdened with flesh.
Walking is a joy under proper con-
ditions One must be dressed for it,
in short skirt and easy shoes. To at
tempt even a moderate distance with
cramped. aching feet takes away all
enthusiasm. I am not likely to forget

district last summer, party OF men,
women and children, who spent each
summer outdoors. They had a wagon
with strong horses for carrying the
canning outfit and the meager lug
gage of the party. and the men took
turns at driving. All the others tramped
and the party pitched camp wherever

These were people of money ana lels-

John Ruskin, in counting up the
blessings of his childhood reckoned
these three for the first: Peace. He
had been taught the meaning of peace
in thought, act and word; had never
heard fathers or mothers voice once
raised in any dispute. nor seen an an
cry glance in the eyes of either nor
had ever seen a moments trouble or
disorder in any household matter. Next
to this he estimated Obedience: he
obeyed a word or lifted finger of father
or mother as a ship her helm, without
an idea of resistance. And lastly Faith;
nothing was ever promised him that
was not given; nothing ever threatened
him that was not inflicted. and Moth
ing ever told him that was not true.

Character Told by Hair.

Character is more easily observable
by close observation of hair than by
noting the expression of the face.
1t Is wonderful guide to the men
tai capacity, tastes and temper of in
dividuals.
1t has been said the finer the hair
the gentler the birth. and it is GER
tainly true that those who are born
to the purple are often remarkable for
the soft, silky texture of the hair
Lusterless black hair denotes a
Jealous disposition and treacherous
temperament.
In nine cases out of ten it is a Curl
Gus fact. which cannot be refuted, that
tht lighter the color-of the hair the
more sensitive is the owner to criti-
cisms and the more quick to feel real
or fancied injuries
The possessor of brown hair of good
depth of color and firm texture is
usually distinguished by good judg-
ment, high sense of reasoning power
and plenty of common sense.
Women with red hair, though often
over-impulsive and too quick-spoken.
are generally strictly honest and truth
full, show a fair amount of common
sense, and, as a rule. are the brightest,
sunniest and gentlest individuals in ex-
istence.
A woman with straight and what
might be termed "unyielding" HAIR
if the color is dark, pos
sesses a firm and highly principled ma
ture; she is determined, perhaps even
a little obstinate, but extremely de-
