UNDER WHICH FLAG?
Peary's Dissertation of Old Glory the
Worst Yet-Naval Rules Violated
Bar Sinister on Stars and Stripes.

One could forgive Peary much that
is unbecoming an officer and a gentle
man in his conduct concerning his dis
coveries at the North Pile if he had let
the Flag alone. Mr.. Peary long ago
tired of his fathers honored name, and
changed his from Perry to Peary, which
certainly isn't any prettier than his
fathers name was Possibly he did not
want the pages of history mussed up by
two "Perrys' who had achieved things,
for in the dim and distant future
Perry-Peary might have been de-
scribed as the great Perry who really
achieved things, one of these up on
Lake Erie, for instance. 1t may just
happen that this is the real reason for
Perry-Peary's change. but the joke

A Recent Massachusetts, Idea.

Senator Elkins las made a speech
on the composition of the Finance
Committee of the Senate, and the abs
lutte lack of representation therein OF
Southern Republicans, that we are sor.
ry for-and yet there is foundation
for 1t. The majority members of this
committee, rightly or wrongly, foCmu-
late Tariff legislation, and under ties,
circumstances the interests Of all the
great sections of the country should
be represented in tnis majority. In
this view 1t would have been better
to have placed a Southern Republic
an on the committee. rather than to
have filled a vacancy by the appoint
ment of Senator Lodge who is on
record as standing for full Protection

Trade or lower duties for some, at

materials, more than on finished pro
ducts. If Protection is to be the pol
icy Of the country they are entitled to
consideration, while, If we are to &c
toward Free Trade, fairnessi requires
that all sections should take theil
medicine.
There is no logic or decency in
tle position of q man who asks Pro.
lection on what he sells and Free
Trade in what he buys. This is q
recent Massachusetts, idea. but even
the far famed courtesy and good fell
lowship of Senator Lodge are not like

The Suit Against the Standard.

The Sherman act is having the
fight of its life tnese days. In the
suit against the Standard Oil Com
pany, which is under way before the
Circuit Court at st. Louis, that sta
tute will be put to a severer test than
any which it has previously encoun-
tered. If the governments case against
the Standard is as strong as the rep
resentatives of the Department of Jus
tice say it is, the Sherman act must
do the work which its trainers mark
ed out for it, or else it will have to
be amended in so many spots that 1t
will virtually be displaced, and q new
law will be put upon the statute
books.
A conspiracy in restraint of trade
is the familiar charge which is
brought against TIE Standard. If
the government proves its case tie
Standard will probably be compelled
to alter its form Of organization or
its methods Of procedure. As the gov
eminent Heretofore Los not rad very
good fortune in its suits against the
big oil aggregation, the public will
not do any rejoicing beforehand. Able
counsel are on each side. Monopoly,

The methods Of tie Standard will be
explained and defended by men who

And Also Fined Ten Dollars for
Remaining in State Of
Bachelorhood.

A gladstone bachelor In q French
comic song MARBLES, Il choose to be
a celibate. celi-ceh-celibate." He won't
sing it much longer If the present
tendecy to penalize single life with
taxation and other oppression contin-
ues. Ireclaimable bachelors are
threatened in the legislation OF the
State of Milne with a penalty of $40
a year, and our Sofia correspondent
has announced that the Bulgarian
SobranJe has already passed "unani-
mously" somewhat similar proposal.
In fact there seems to be quite a
nasty feeling against the celibate in
Bulkaria as there is an old custom In
that country's ancient capital whereby
all young men who have not mar
ried during the carnival season are beat
en- with pigs bladders in the streets by
their happier married comrades. But
q horrid suspicion obtudes ITSELF Is it
better to endure the sings ond ar
rows of outrageous bachelorhood than
to fly to tee evils we know not of in
volved in matrimony? AS Hamlet OBJ
serves. That is the question.
The bachelor must really be forgiven
If he sees something ominous in this
fury Of taxation and pigs bladder beat
ings administered by wild husbands.
Some people say that bachelors shoul
be taxed at $25 for the crime of refus-
ing to support somebody else's daugh-
ter,but the majority seem to hold that
30 is the time at which to begin and
the tax SHOULD be progressive so that
at 90 a man shall either marry or
starve. This taxing out OF existence
is the great panacea Of the New Tyran
ny for 1t is also.it will be remembered
advocated to cure those who have the
impertinent intelligence to earn or pos
sess more than their fellows.
But II race suicide is to be prevented
the next step must be to penalize all
who rave no children and thus no one
will be able to call his soul his own.
And taxation is not the only peril
which besets the unhappy bachelor.
He Is to be deprived of tie title of
Mr.. which Is to be the appeTlatiou of
the married man as Mrs. is that of
the married woman. The new women
of Chicago are set on this reform and
they nave persuaded Senator Samuel
Ettleson, who appears to be a real per
son and not character out of Mar
tin Chuzzlewit, to bring in a bill maxi
Ing 1t penal offense for a married
man to pose as unmarried. Unfortu-
nately no one can hit on the mascu-
line for Miss. Why not call a man
Bachelor Jones, or simply Bach Jones
But why tax bachelor and not
spinsters? Any woman who wants to
marry can find a congenial mate, and
is therefore wholly responsible for her
own celibacy. The idea of punisiing
people for not marry is silly venge-
full and wicked, but If the women in
sists on taxing bachelors tire men
should insist on taxing spinsters also
II Tor no other reason tnan to give
the new woman some of the equality
