THE SECRET SERVICE

Both Presidents Cleveland and Nc
kinley, consciously or unconsciously,
assented to violation of the law in the
detail of secret service operatives.
Ever since the administration of Mr..
Cleveland the secret service has been
the recognized guardian of the presi-
dents person. One of the secret
service men who was among the first
employed to watch over President
Cleveland tells this story: TT took
Mr.. Cleveland some time to become
accustomed to the guard placed about
his residence. For several months,
during the first summer l was sta
toned at Gray Gables. the president
was unaware that any secret service
men were on duty.
THE house was situated on a neck
of land which ran into the bay and
it was far from other houses. Tramps
used to wander through the estate,
and cranks disturbed the household
not a little before Secretary Carlisle
ordered a detail of government agents
to the Cleveland's summer home.
Mrs. Cleveland was very much
pleased at the arrival of myself and
| form her husband for some time,
| knowing his dislike at anything APP
preaching surveillance. We were
| ostensibly employed as farm hands
| and l remember that we constructed a
| fine shell road that first summer. One
day President Cleveland came tc
where I was at work and stood look
ing at me for some time. Finally he
remarked very kindly that he had
been informed of our presence, and
after due consideration deemed it ad-
visable on account of the children
We gave up our laborious job after
that"
While the president is travelling and
while he is at Oyster Bay secret serv-
| ice operatives have full charge of al
measures taken for the protection OF
his person. Whenever Mr.. Roosevelt
leaves Washington to visit another
city secret service agents are always
sent ahead to familiarize themselves
| with the police arrangements and tc
make suggestions for the greater pro-
lection of the executive. Mr.. Roose-
welt does not visit any city in the
country until the plans for his public
movements have been approved by
the secret service. The agents who
| accompany him on these trips always
| return to Washington in state bor-
| dering on collapse. because Of the
strain and the responsibilities that
have been placed upon them. Through
the whole "a hours someone must be
near the president. awake and on
guard.
Nobody except Chief Wilkie knows
to what extent secret service agents
have been employed to shadow"
congressman and others for political
| reasons. Since the scandal of 1874,
when agents of the secret service di-
vision were accustomed to render
| service to those who had been instru-
mental in securing their appointment,
1t had been charged at various times
that political work was being done
by operatives. Last winter several
! members of the senate and house
pointed out to newspaper correspond
ents man who was always loafing
in the corridors Of the capitol building
as one of the secret service operatives
who, under the direction of the presi-
dent, was spying upon congressman
who did not approve the Roosevelt
policies.-Harper's Weekly

to send Mr.. Rayner's resolution to the
committee on the judiciary.

torney general in endeavoring to in
dict people in the federal circuit courts

Mr.. Clapp insisted that the very in
formation desired by Mr.. Rayner
would be brought out in the proceed
ings to quash the indictment in New
York, but the latter replied that the
long delay of the proceeding would de-
feat his purpose even If the informa-
ton could be brought out that way.

Senator Knox opposed the resolution

ney general to show the harm that
might arise from its adoption. He
said when he was preparing to bring
suit to dissolve that illegal combina-
ton report became widespread that
there was no authority in law for such

said, its influence might have beer

SPEAKS GOOD WORD
FOR NORTH
TAFT, IN ADDRESS TO SOUTH
ERNERs, PRAISES ARDoR OF
NORTHERN MEN.

Augusta, Ga, Jan. 19.-What might
be considered an entirely new point
of attack on the solid south" was
made today by the president-elect,
when he put in good word for the
warmth and ardor of northern men,
who know a good thing when they
see It," in the charm and beauty of
the southern young women. This
lighter vein of Mr. Taft's humor was
given vent before what he termed
a bouquet Of bright and charming
faces the students at Tubman high
school for girls.
The charming appearance of the
student body, he said, impressed him
as an entirely new and convincing
argument In favor of the separation
Of the sexes for education.
When trained, intelligent women
of the country wanted suffrage, he
predicted, they would get 1t, on the
very natural ground that they always
got what they wanted.
Not Only Future.
Matrimony, as Mr. Taft said at
Athens last week, was not the only
future to which a young woman
should look, and no unsatisfactory ac-
ceptances should be made of the mar
riage proposals simply to avoid be-
ing an old maid. The great success
of many unmarried women of his ac-
quaintance justified this assertion.
But, OF course, In the south you
are not troubled as they are in Mas
sachusetts," he continued, where
there are so many women that there
Is no possibility that they can all
marry. and it is a really serious prob
lem as to what shall be done with
the unmarried women. Here I know
that the situation is different"
Mr.. Taft then went to the Haines
normal and Industrial institute for
negroes, where he delivered an ex-
tended address on the benefits of in
dustrial education.
Profound Sympathy.
Expressing the most profound SYM
pathy for the struggle upward of the
negro race, Mr.. Taft remarked, hav-
ing in mind the recent utterances of
Senator Tlllman:
Il do not think it inappropriate to
refer to some expressions that fall
from the lips OF men prominent in
political life that are utterly lacking
in sympathy and that are cruel and
abrupt in their meaning, If they are
to be given the meaning that the
words naturally bear. I refer to
those gentlemen who deem it neces-
sary to affirm that, in the interest Of
this country, the negro race should
have no education. Now, / am glad
to know and believe that those men,
in their hearts, do not believe that;
that it comes rather from a desire to
say something that shall have a sem
satlonal effect than 1t does from
real spirit, | know that those express
sions do not represent the feeling of
the great body of intelligent white
men In the south"

ALCOHOL RESTRICTS PROGRESS
Is Direct Cause of Insanit: il About
Twelve to Fifteen FER Cent of
All Cases.

Obstacles to race progress and the
relation of immigration to race i'm
provement in the United States were
the principal subjects discussed at the
closing sessions of the thirteenth an
nual meeting of the American Acad-
envy of Political and Social Science at
Philadelphia.
The interesting session was that at
which obstacles to race progress were
discussed Dr. Charles L. Dana of
New York laid great stress upon alco-
hol as a serious obstacle. He said that
alcohol is a direct cause of insanity in
the general population in about twelve
to fifteen per cent. of all cases. An
active education propaganda against
the use of alcohol by persons under
thirty years, he continued, would do
more good than attempts at positive
prohibition. Almost all cases of
drunkenness and dipsomania, he said,
develop before the age of so years.
Champ S. Andrews of New York
discussed quackery, the drug habit,
and the limitations of legislation in
remedying public health evils.
E. D. Warfield, president of Lafay-
cite college, gave views on the moral
influence of women in American So
ciety. His views were highly favor
able to women, except in certain
cases, such as the irresponsible rich
among whom women, he said, are
found publicly and without shame
copying the vices of men,"

BASIS OF SUCCESS.
Distinguished English Physician Says
Temperance Is the Foundation OF "a
National Prosperity. ~ igH

In the course of an address deliv-
cred in London recently, Sir Victor
Horsley, the distinguished British
physician, said they were all citizens
of a great Empire, but 1t had only re
Gently occurred to many that to main
tain that empire they must individu-
ally study the. conditions of national
life. 1t was no longer question OF
political economy; it was the question
of seeing how far every member of the
race could live healthily and work
happily. The report of the house OF
commons committees on physical de-
cadence had made the matter one OF
vital Importance, and there were two
things to recognizable housing OF
the population and the evils of alcohol
which were salient features in social
reform. If he could only make people
see, as he hoped they would be able
to see, that temperance was the foun-
dation of national prosperity and ef,
ficiency, he would have done some
share of this work as citizen.
In the hospitals the. cost of alcohol
had decreased from $4,000 in 1869 to
$4,000 in 1902, and in the L. C. c.
asylums, although the number OF
patients had vastly increased, its con-
sumption had decreased also. This
showed what was thought of it as a
drug.
The income of the nation had risen
so per cent. in ten years, but could
they say it was wisely spent when
they saw that 40 millions were spent
on corn and no less than 160 millions
on alcohol? When money was thrown
away like this, was it fair to turn
round and complain of commercial
depression?
Statements that they had reached
the limits of taxation were founded on
sheer ignorance. Would higher taxa
ton reduce the number Of public
houses? Most certainly 1t would do
so, as he had seen II Canada. He did
not believe in disinterested manage
ment nor in municipalization, but that
from the moral, ecoI mic, and physio-
logical aspects TIC better life of the
nation demanded the disuae of alco.

To Reduce Number Of Mineshons.

A curious action, as reported in the
British temperance press, is being
taken by a syndicate of licensed wine
shop-keepers in Paris. A license to
sell wine and spirits is not on the
same basis in Paris as it is in London,
where anyone may sell wine to be
consumed off the premises, but IL
cense is necessary for the keeping of
a tavern. These licenses are granted
by the police, and are never refused or
Cancelled as long as the holder of
them attends to the good behavior of
his customers In consequence, the
number of wineshops and taverns in
Paris has become enormous, and the
syndicate of wineshop-keepers is petit
tioning, in the interests of its mem
bers, that fewer licenses be granted in
future Not long ago the brewers OF
New York began to reduce the number
of their licensed houses, under some
what similar conditions, the action
in both cases being for the benefit OF
the trade.
