The English Parliament. we are told. has under consideration bill to make it a crime to disturb the deliberations of that body. Only few days ago the two Houses of Parliament were over run by a mob of women suffragists who fairly took possession of the two bodies, and even the aid of the police was not sufficient to suppress the dis order and protect the lawmakers. That is the cause of the proposed leg islation; 1t Is to protect the Lords and Commons from the women.

MT. Taft, on the eve of the electio

 is reported as saying:
 am in a position to state as em- phatically as possible that neither the Standard oil Company. nor any one connected with 1t. nor any one identi- ned with its management, has con fributed one cent to the Republican campaign fund.
 That sounds familiar. When Judge Parker declared. just before the cleo ton in 1904, that money had been piled up by certain corporation influences to defeat him, President Roosevelt rushed Into print to denpunce the statement as a falsehood. This was just after writing his letter to Hartman to raise s25o.oOO for the party, and which liar riman proceeded to do, &lOO,OOO of 1t csming from Standard oil people. Judge Parker's statement was true. while President Roosevelt's was false. Time may show that Taft is an imitator of Esooseyelt'9' faults.

for the last sixteen months now a. mounts to S10s. .0so,Ooo and there Is no indication of let up in the drain upon the enormous surplus with which the Administration was burdened soon after is came into office.
 The issue of canal bonds is deemed necessary notwithstanding the fact that there Is in the national bank de- positories the sum of 311s,533,2S7 to the credit of Treasurer treat. The most of that money has got to be left there so the banks can carry on the business which the campaign orators have been saying will be done as soon as the country knows that Taft has been elected. Some of it will be call ed into the Treasury, but the chief replenishment of the general fund will come from the canal bond issue which MT. Cortelyou will be able to annouHce in time to add to the Christmas cheer.

Nevaaa,s wiId Horses !.

Milwaukee Sentinel.
 "The ranges set apart by the Gov ernment in Nevada are overrun by droves of wild horses. which In the aggreate are said to amount to 15,00O at least" said D. c. Carson, who has just returned from that State. "At one time there was a law in Nevada permitting the shooting of these wild horses in order to get rid of them. The hides were sold and the hunters made a good living out of 1t.
 But. as is usually the case. there were hunters who constantly made mistakes when out gunning. Many a domestic horse fell a victim to the hunters rifles. This finally became so much of a loss to the ranchers and others that the law was repealed. Since that time the droves have grown and are exceedingly troublesome. The forestry men are ordered to shoot these horses whenever they come on them, but they are so busy with other and more necessary work that little impression is made on the droves by that means. Meanwhile. the horses are increasing, and the question of how to wipe them out is becoming a serious one for all concerned.
