Is not likely that Joseph Pulitzer or
Delevan Smith can be taken there for
trial even If indicted If the publishers
are to be tried in New York under the
state law, an old statute of 1905 will be
revived for the purpose. hut in that
case the grand jury investigation now
going on in Washington would cut no
figure. Until Attorney General Bona

whole matter will remain enveloped IN
mystery, which is pretty much after
the Rooseyeltian order of things.

COLLEAGUES.

Senator La Toilette has made an at
tack upon his colleagues in the United
States senate in the columns of his new
magazine. In the course of a strong
editorial he makes the following asser-
ton:
Less than a dozen bosses dominate
legislation in the United States senate.
who are these bosses?
I'm the order Of their control one
acquainted with the business of the
senate would name them as follows:
Aldrich. Hale, Elkins, Cullom, CALM
ger, Foraker,
DO they rule because of their su-
perior mental endowment? Far from
it. They are not great men. In the
main they are an ordinary lot. No,
they are the product of bad system. -
Product of q bad system without
doubt, but it is nothing more nor less
than the Republican system which has
been upheld in times past by Senator
La Toilette, and which he still up
holds. The trouble with La Toilette is
that he Is for the party first and re-
form afterwards, the latter being i'm
possible under the conditions.

nEAcTIoNARY PLOTS.

The dispatches bring the news OF a
widespread conspiracy TO overthrow the
new Turkish constitution and resume
the ancient despotie regime. It is said
that over 10000 persons are implicated
in the plot in various parts Of the en-
pire. which was discovered by the
interest accident. Two European pow
ers are alleged to have a part in the
conspiracy, having agreed to give aid
when open hostilities began.
II ever the iron heel was necessary
tkis plot certainly calls for ruthless
stamping out. After centuries of mis-
rsle. during which horrors untold were
perpetrated, Turkey has just emerged
from the darkness. To so back TO for
mer conditions would be a crime
against civilization. and II there is to
be any interference il should be on the
SIDE OF progress and decent govern

Is distributed over six working days.
the total Of fOTty-eight hours work will
hereafter be done in the five days from
Monday to Friday, inclusive.
The employees in the Mechanical De-
partments of the business will by this
change have all day Saturday and Sun
day for recreation and rest. The re-
suit of the innovation from the en-
pioyers' standpoint will doubtless be
watched with considerable interest by
other concerns in the same line of BUSH

mony viii be performed by a woman

affair will be the youth whose presence

tain special gifts from the bride to her
girl ushers. In fact, everything in

rights" uppermost.
The suffrage movement is said to be
gathering momentum in the eastern
states, though the advocates of the idea
have not yet reached the frenzy of the
militant suffragettes of London, who
have repeatedly attacked the house of
