National Capital

WASHINGTON, D. c., May s.
War is to be made by Senator Johnson
of North Dakota on the effort to erect
a statue of Alexander Hamilton on the
public square in this city. He today in
troduced a resolution repeating the resC-
luton providing for such a memorial.
II want that man forgotten as soon
as possible" said Senator Johnson, in
conversation today. II do not want an
.eftigy of Hamilton put up here as a model
for any young man. If some people
want such a statue let them buy the
ground somewhere on which to place it.
They propose to put it near the white
house on a public square and l will
make war on it. If it is put there in
less than 100 years that statue will be
dynamited, for the American people will
not tolerate it. Alexander Hamilton was
one of the most contemplate rakes we
have ever known in this country"

POWER OF RICH DUE
TO STATES WEAKNESS.
Ferrero, Italian Historian, Declares I'm
trammeled Activity in America
Causes Abuses.

PARIS, May 4-The observations in
the United States of America by Gug-
lielmo Ferrero, the Italian historian,
which are appearing in the Figaro, are
attracting much attention.
Sig. Ferrero finds that the immense
power welded by the rich in America
is due to their untrammeled activity.
This freedom of private initiative in
America, the distinguished Italian at
tributes to the fact that fear of the
state was the underlying principle of
the American constitution.
Owing to the weakness of the state
in America all the superior intellectual
and moral life of the country, scientific
as we'll as religious, is falling gradually
under the influence of the wealthy
classes"
Yet this state of affairs, Sig. Ferrero
aftirms, is not as monstrous as is be-
lieved in Europe, where the difference
between the state and the forces of CAPT
tai in America are not understood.

JURIST DEFENDS SELF
JUDGE MCPHERSON ANSWERS CON-
CHEESEMAN'S CHARGES.
Issues Long Statement Reviewing Work
On Missouri Rate Cases-Jus-
tice Philips Changes Mind.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, May Al Special. !
Judge Smith Mcpherson today issued a
long statement reviewing his work in the
Missouri rate cases and defending the
course taken by him in these trials. The
statement which is in reply to the reso-
luton introduced in the House of Repre-
sentatives yesterday by Congressman
Murphy of Missouri in which Judge
Mcpherson and Judge Phillips are both
severely criticised. is in part as follows:
II know nothing about Congressman
Murphy of Missouri-never heard of him
until late last night-know nothing of
his motives or purposes-and they are
of no concern to me except that of
course do not like to be held up in an
unfavorable light in public. His many
'whereases' preceding his resolution are
notable principally on account of the
mistakes, both as to what he says and
what he either omits or cOnceals.
LAS to the fishing trip of three years
ago this winter, / have but little to say.
l was invited by Gardner Lathrop, now
general solicitor for the Santa Fe sys-
tenn, warm personal friend of mine, to
go with the party to Tampico, Mexico
and was gone two or three weeks as his
guest. | was then glad to be his guest
as l always am. Everybody who knows
him knows that he is a perfect gentle
man and man of the highest character
as was his father before-the long time
president of the Missouri state univer-
sity.
Judge Phillips has practically nothing
whatever to do with these Missouri rate
cases and Mr.. Murphy has done him
great wrong by using his name in the
way he has. He is a most brilliant and
capable man and as pure as a good wom-
an.
Judge Philips had contemplated send
ing telegram to Speaker Cannon ask
ing for a congressional investigating
committee, but upon deeper reflection de-
cided that such procedure would be a
bad precedent as well as somewhat IT.

diction in the premises unless impeach-
ment proceedings were started.

DOLLIVER FOR RE VISION
IOWA SENATOR DELIVERS NOTA-
BILE SPEECH ON TARIFF.
Declares He Still Loves Republican
Party, but Is No Longer Tied
Down to Sentiment.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May AT
lacking the wool and cotton schedules
IF the pending tariff bill as containing
deceptive provisions, increasing rates
IF duty on many articles containing but
trifling quantity of wool, Senator
Dolliver of Iowa today delivered one of
The most notable speeches presented to
the Senate since the revision of the tar
IF has been under consideration. The
announcement that Mr.. Dolliver would
speak filed every available space in the
galleries, and there were very few SEN
ators who were not in their places to
hear him. A considerable portion Of his
remarks was addressed directly to Sena-
tor Aldrich, chairman of the committee
Of finance.
eff l speak the TRUTH said Mr.. Dol
liver, IF / deal with things as they are,
suggest to the senator from Rhode
Island that it will not be an adequate
answer to reproach me with the errors
Of my youth or to disparage me because
In other years l followed without ques-
ton in the footsteps of our party lead
ers. If, in times past, l took, without
disturbing the public peace every act of
the party, it was because l loved it; be
cause the young man of that day found
1t a good deal easier to idealiZe it than
they sometimes find it now. l speak
here because | still love the old Repub-
lican party, and would have its leader
ship rise to the full stature of its oppor-
tunity and its responsibility" Referring
to recent exchange of words in the
Senate between himself and Senator
Aldrich, Mr.. Dolliver said, IF the sena-
tor from Rhode Island intended to hui
initiate me by the intimation that my
course in these matters is dictated by
political conditions at home, he uninten-
tionally pays be a compliment which l
sincerely appreciate, because this nation
has entered upon new era of direct
responsibility on the part of Presidents
and Congresses alike to that enlightened
public opinion which ought to be the
real government of the United States"
81 repeat what l said the other day,
that the duty of this Congress is to re
duce the margin of protection provided
in the Dingley rates wherever it can be
done without substantial injury to the
productive enterprises of this market
place."

He Could Not Tell a Lie.

The late Prof Rowland of Johns
Hopkins university was the most emf

Henry. Among his notable achieve
ments in the realm of pure science was
the calculation of the mechanical equiva-
lent of heat and the use of gratings in
spectrum analysis, for which purpose
be devised a machine that could cut 49,,
600 lines to the inch on a plate of pol
ished metal. In the practical applica-
ton Of his knowledge he was noted as
