ON PRESIDENTIAL FIRING LINE.
The Gompers Attack on the RIEht to
DO Business.
Washington Post 0n6).

Washington Post ond).
The president. in his letter to Senator
Knox. insists that Mr.. Bryan should
answer whether or not he approves Of Mr.
Gompers' assault upon the courts. and
whether he is pledged to support and assist
In enacting the remedy proposed by Mr.
Gompers for the "despotism'' Of the courts
We think Mr.. Bryan has made II clear
that he does approve of that assault, and Is
pledged 10 the enactment Of the bill de.
manded by Mr.. Gompers. rho democratic
plan covering this subject. supposed to have
been written by Mr.. Gompers, and certainly
approved beforehand by Mr.. Bryan, is de-
clared by Mr.. Gompers to be a pledge t.
provide the remedy" demanded, and Mr.
Bryan, IN his speech of acceptance. ap.
proved OF every plank in the platform, and
declared himself to he bound by them.
The nature Of this remedy is clearly
exposed by the president. If every voter
in the United States could read and digest
what the president has said there would
be no danger Of Mr.. Bryan being placed
in an official position where he could assist
In securing such q law. The remedy
proposed by Mr.. Gomners is nothing less
than an act of congress which will provide
that mo right . = " to carry on business
"a eAs boA NlAhs u dA ally "a NA
place, or at all, shall be construed, held,
considered. or treated as property or as
constituting a property right"
The right to carry on business, the right
to acquire property, is not to be property
or a property right!
What is a patent? 1t is a grant by a
government to a person of the exclusive
right Of exploiting his invention for a
specified term. This right is a right TO
carry on business" OF "a particular kin 4"
But will Mr.. Gompers cay that It is not a
property right? Patent rights are some
times worth millions of dollars. What is
such a right, IL It Is not property and a
property right?
The constitution provides that congress
shall have power to promote the progress
Of science and useful arts, by securing for
limited times to authors and inventors the
exclusive right to their respective writings
and discoveries II congress should pass
the Gompers bill, and thereby attempt to
destroy the property rights of inventors
and writer's holding patents and copyrights
under the constitution, the act would "be
declared unconstitutional by q unanimous
supreme court" as the president has said
But there are other rights as valuable az
patent rights. The right to do business OF
d particular KIND, or at a particular place
is often very valuable. Being valuable, il
is exchangeable into money; in short, Il
is property. And the right of any man tc
do business is equivalent to the right tc
make a living. to acquire property. A Law
that would take the value from such &
right would take away a mans life.
You take my house when you do take tn,
prop
That doth sustain my house; you take my
life

The report from New York that the

A TRIP AROUND THE WORLD.

The battleships Maine and Alabama
have Just completed a voyage around
the world and have returned to the
navy yards at Portland and Brooklyn,
respectively, where they will go out of
commission and undergo repairs. Their
arrival in home ports completes the
longest and most important voyage
ever made by any battleships, but they
will not hold the record long, as the
entire Atlantic feet, according to pres
ent plans, will Don complete a much
longer voyage and return to Atlantic
waters.
When the Atlantic fleet left Hamp-
ton Roads for the trip to the Pacific
the Maine and Alabama were IN line,
but they proved inferior to the other
vessels on the trip to San Francisco.
They could not maintain the speed de-
sired by the other ships OF the feet
and so when the feet left San Fran
cisco the two vessels were detached
and ordered back to the Atlantic, their
places being taken by the Wisconsin
and the Nebraska, the new ships thai
were then in Pacific waters. At that
the voyage of the Maine and the Ala.
bama was a noteworthy event. A com.
plete trip around the world by a fee
of two battleships is at least a nov
city. 1t was n which it was not ex
pected that battleships would ever b,
called upon to make when the modern
heavily armed vessel was first evolved

DON QUIXOTE.
BY E. H. sOthern in Golfers Weekly.

Romance is dead, and knights have hao
their day,
Old Time now dances to a soberer tune,
No longer StrephOn Worships Phyllis shOon,
The very GODS have fled this mortal fray;
Yet one heart owns fair Dulcinea's sway,
And bears her banner, praying as a boon
That he may dare the mountains of the
moon.
Here Don QuiXote holds his forehead high.
His lance In rest, his oriflamme unfurId'
fitting at windmills or 'gainst giants
hurld.
Honor and Truth and Love his battle-cry.
Demanding only OF a laughing world
Gently 10 live and with brave heart 70
die.
Wisest Of madmen. maddest Of the wise!
We would adventure where thy fancies
lead;
Where knightly thought qulckens TO
knightly deed,
Where thy defeat shames meaner victories.
DID All men view life's pageant through
thine eyes.
Weld righteous sword when grief and
weakness plead.
Then were this world from all enchantera
freed.
All mortals listed In thy high emprlse.
QuiXotic we would be-to still declare
Our cot a castle, and our lass a queen,
Upright, uncOnquered, unafraid. serene,
Finding Gods poorest creatures brave and
Shedding a glory over all things mean.
II this be folly, folly be our share.

The Death of E. C. Daniel.

The news of the death of E. G. Daniel, one of the oldest citizens of Wickes, was sent to The Star last week, but arrived too late for that issue because of a belated train. It occurred Sunday. March l5. Mir. Daniel had been con fined to his bed Fl days prior to the end. He came to Polk county in 1878. He was married at the age of 23 to Mrs. Sarah Jane Brown. Five children, four girls and one boy, were born of this union, one girl dying at two years. The others were at the home at the time of the death. Four years after the death of bis first wife he was married to Mrs. M. c. Demp- sey of Cove, who survives him.
 The remains were laid to rest in the Daniel cemetery, the Rev. D. l.. Rollins conducting the serv- ices, which were largely attended by sorrowing relatives, friends and neighbors.

HEALTHY ON CANAL ZONE.
Sick Rate During Last Month Smallest
 on Record.

Washington, Mar. 25.--A case of vel. low fever was found aboard the Aeon cagua, which arrived at one of the ports of the canal zone February 29th from Guayaquil. Ecuador There was no difficulty in handling the case so as to prevent it's spreading. The last case originating in the canal zone was in May, 1906.
 Favorable health conditions continue on the zone according to the February report of Col. Gorgas, chief sanitary officer of the Isthmian Canal eommis. sion. Taking it as a whole, Col Cor gas says the February report lis the most favorable report that the health department has been able to make since it has been on the Isthmus."
 The sick rate was 17.S6 per thou sand, the smallest recorded, against 24.7S the previous February.
 Taking the total population in 1906, 92.494, there was a yearly death rate of 36.07 per thousand, while in 1907 with a population of 1l3, ,269 there was yearly death rate of 21.40 per thou sand.
