To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: Ex-Governor Foraker Of Ohio could give ad-
vice well worth while, based personal expert
ence To the Republican leaders at Albany. He
could tell them what followed the passage of bill
nv the Ohio Legislature and his signing of the
same when Governor which led to the legalizatiOn
of open saloons Sunday in Cincinnati. The Re-
publican leaders in that state. it IS sure. Will never
forget the statewide cyclone Of moral Indignation
that followed defeating Foraker in his race for the
third term and turning the state over to the
Democrats.
The Republican party goes down and out when
# forgets the rock out of which it hewn.
When will its managers fully realize that the
church IN America is far bigger political asser
than Is the saloon, at least when the question in
zol,ad is q moral one? It seems that its leaders
have got to be told this again and again. in various
dialects and with different accents.
Nor should it forget that the sporadic Judgment
of an impusive preacher here and there is not that
of the Church. any more than the Judgment of
ny van DYKE the elder and that of a hundred
other Northern preachers in the SOS who under
took to turn back the anti-slaveTy tide by writing
lecture and sermon IN proof that slavery was
scrirturaL They were called (no doubt. often too
barshlv) dough putty preachers. Wisely the
p.nubIicar leaders then knew how to dis
crlminate.

Sir: In my letter relating to Arbor Day, owing
to nv bad writing the words mot Intellectually
took the place of mot intentionally written.
It was far from my purpose to challenge the intel

feelings toward the compostor. Incidentally per
nit me to say that IL our schools could only be

J. H. FISHER.
Scranton, Penn. April 1. 1909.
This question has been much discussed and
varying opinions have been expressed. Some
expert engineers have doubted and denied the
suf1ciency of the ~water supply. Perhaps the
most elaborate discussion of it is to be found IN
General Henry L. Abbot's PROBLEMS Of the
Panama Canal" where the paramount i'm
portance of it is fully recognized in any scheme
of a lock canal. On the basis of 23,000,000 tons
OF shipping yearly, so per cent more than
now passes through the Suez Canal General
Abbot concludes that the water supply fur
nfshed by the Chagres is ample to meet all pos
sible demands" That, of course, depends upon
the ability of the dam and the bottom of the
lake to prevent excessive leakage under the
great pressure which will be caused by dam
ming the river to so great a height, but Of that
ability the engineers in charge of the work
express full confdence-Ed.J

AGREE TO
BlDE THEIR TIME

Huron, s. D., Feb. 26.-OrVa Johnson
and Ada Pierson, the two young people
who eloped from Claremont n who
were taken into custody here a day or
two since. were confronted last even
ing by Sheriff Elswood and Officer
Crawford, of Groton. These gentlemen
represented the irate father Of Miss
Ada, by whose direction the couple
were arrested here. The girl declares
that she is above the age Of Is years
and her father has no authority to in
tere with her affairs. After a confer
ence, an agreement was entered into,
whereby Miss Pierson returned last
evening to make her home with friends
in Claremont, a village near Aberdeen,
and by his agreement young Johnson
is barred from again entering within
the borders, or making his home again
in Brown county. After the agreement
had been signed, the girl declared that
the separation would be but temporary;
that she would become the wife Of
johnson, although they are own cous-
ms, and prevented from contracting
marriage in the state OF South Dakota.
Johnson bade the girl an affectionate
goodby and departed for Minneapolis a
few moments after the train for the
north had left the station. The young
man, Eric Suther, who planned the
elopement, and was also taken into Gus
tody here, was compelled to pay the
expenses of the whole affair, amount
ing to SIPS.

CLASSIFICATION OF
FREIGHT RATES
Would Reduce
classification and Adjust
Joint Rates.

Sioux Falls, s. D., March About
the usual amount OF business was
transacted during the regular monthly
meeting of the state board OF railroad
commissioners, which has just been
held at the headquarters of the COM
mission in this city. e.
The board, in accordance with a petit
ton filed with it by a metal culvert
manufacturing company Of Sioux alls,
has decided to take up with the western
classification committee the matter Of
reducing the present rate on shipments
of the character made by the company.
The present rate IL double first class,
whereas It formerly was second class.
The petition Of the company asks that
the classification De placed where 1T
formerly was, the present rate being
stated to be nearly prohibitive.
One of the most important matters
come before the board was the ques-
ton Of joint rates being established
throughout the state. The matter was
called to the attention Of the board by
a number of shippers, Jobbers and COM
mercial bodies in different parts OF the
state. The railroad commissioners al
ready have gathered q great deal OF
data relating to this subject and will
make further Investigations. 1t is pos
sible that hearings may be called for
the purpose of taking testimony bear
ing upon the matter.

Rosenberg Saw the Milky Way
Alleges That He Got the
Sugar Bowl Next.

New York, Mch. morris Rosen-y
berg has filed q counter suit to that Of
his wife, Rose, for a separation, on the
ground Of intolerable cruelty.
Rosenberg, in his allegations of cru
city, says that when he went to bust
ness in the morning his wife would tell
him she hoped he would come home
on a stretcher and that h a already
bought mourning for a cheerful wild
owhood. He says h would lie IN bed
until after he went to business, and
then would get up M stay out all day,
not getting his meals.
One night of dreadful memory, says
Rosenberg, she came home late, and,
when he was sleeping soundly, she
jumped into bed and pushed him u
He fell hard because he was asleep, hit
his nose against the fioor-and she
never even apologized!" .
On July 20, 1906, h husband alleges,
his wife dug her finger nails into his
hand as they quarreled, and he had to
call a physician to treat him. One day
in August, Rosenberg says, his wife hit
him on the head with the baby's milk
bottle and III was Ill for several days.
He was Just getting over h effects or
that, he asserts, when she threw the
sugar bowl at him. He lodged. She
hurled it again, ito see If h could
break II on his head" The bowl did
not break, but his head was terribly
gashed. he alleged.

bride and bridegroom and a score Of
wedding guests who participated in a
marriage at the residence of Mrs. War
rem z. Colburn, south side social lead
err and cat fancier, had scarcely
left the house when a message
came from the Colburn family physi-
clan, DIR. Nixon Davis, that Mrs. Col
burns maid, Hannah Bellstrom, was
suffering from diphtheria and that the
house would have to be ~quarantined.
Those who have been shut off from
the world by the strict rule of the
health department are the stricken
maid, Miss Bellstrom, Mrs. Colburn,
Mrs. M. E. Washburn, Of Spokane,
Wash, who is visiting Mrs. Colburn,
and 20 cats of high degree, the very
same felines who have contributed to
the fame of the "Brushwood cattery."
The bride and bridegroom, who so
narrowly escaped being held under ock

lowing their happy marriage are Mr..
and Mrs. Theodore F. Nesbit. They are
now speeding toward California on
their honeymoon, sweetly ignorant Of
all the dangers and discomforts that
they missed by reason of their hurried
departure.
Mr.. Nesbit is a wealthy retired mer-

formerly lived in WATERFOWL, but who
for a year preceding her marriage has

The bill for special appropriations at

shouted themselves hoarse to get IL off

The capitol building bill, calling for
$45, 900, did not call in vain, presum-
ably for the reason hat most OF the
members expect to come back two
years later and want to hold sessions
in the new capitol.
An evening session was held by the
house to clear the calendar. The ser
ate contented itself with substituting
the Ewart bill providing for congress
sional districts for the Hitchcock bill
and then deliberately killing the for
mer.

JACOB SCHIFF FOR
AN INCOME TAX

New York, Feb. 26.-An income tax,
designed to overcome objections which
were raised when the tax was last i'm
posed Is suggested by Jacob H. Schiff,
of the banking firm of Kuhn, Loeb &
Co, as a mean Of meeting h increas-
ing deficit in the United States treas
ury.
Discussing the plan, Mr.. Schiff, after
condemning the issuing of additional
government securities as "pernicious
and dangerous" said: What we need
is a real revenue producing system,
which shall interfere in no way and af-
feet as little as possible questions con-
nected with the tariff or the country's
bank or currency systems. / believe
this is to be found in the income tax.
Charles II. Trent, treasurer Of the
United States, faVors 4 direct proper
tional tax on incomes.
II believe that 1t would assist con-
siderably and am in favor of an income
tax coming from business efforts and
the result of a mans labor" he said.
"As a matter of fact, I feel that it
would be quite fair to tax all who earn
more than $1,000 a year; to have an as
cending scale, as 1t were, but uniform"
