Answers to Queries.

MARATHON RACEs-subscriber and several
others city and out of the city. What are the
Marathon races? Why so called? What is the
distance?
The Marathon races are named from
an incident in connection with the
battle between the Athenians and
Plataeans, who were allies, and the
Persians, 400 B. c.. in which the Per-
slams were defeated. The incident
was that of a soldier running
from the battlefield to Athens, dis
lance of about % miles, to convey the
news of victory to the waiting Athe-
mans. The name is now given to long
distance races. The race of 1905 from
Marathon to Athens was 20 miles. The
Olympic Marathon race, London, was
about 25A miles. In this ]. j. Hayes
(American) was the winner in hours
SO minutes and is 2-5 seconds.

plication. Men differ as much in style
of writing as in personal appearance,

SAN FRANcrsco's QUESTION
From Saturday Evening Post

So far, the graft prosecution. in San
Francisco has failed to reach any man
higher up" Only two out of u jurors
were convinced that bribery in the
trolley matter had been traced to Pat
rick Calhoun, president of the United
Railroads.
Calhoun is a man of much conse-
quence. He personifies an Investment
of $50, 900. He could not, like the
inconsequential, bride taking super
visors, be ruined with impunity. His
Indictment and trial were bitterly re-
scented by men of his own class.
Whereupon the San Francisco Good
Government league propounds this
question: Does the prosecution of
wealthy persons charged with civic
crimes injure business. or does il i'm
prove the financial standing of the city
in the eyes of outside investors? 2"
So far as we are aware no categorical
answer is possible. An event that oc-
Cured long ago is described as fol-
lows. "And he went into the temple
and began to cast out them that sold
therein and them that bought OBJ
viously, the immediate effect must have
been to injure business, but the event
is not judged on that ground nova
days VIII it be to my financial ad-
vantage to steal this mans watch9
Possibly; but should /, therefore, do it.?
Who can doubt that inasmuch as San
Francisco has tried to punish civic
crime. even at material cost, she has
gained, and inasmuch as she has not
tried. she has lost?

HOW ROOSEVELT
WOULD T AK
THE RICH
of Swollen Fortunes
Must Not Shirk Duty to-
Government

n YEW YORK, July 15.-The Outlook
IN issued today has an article by
Theodore Roosevelt entitled GIVE
Me Neither Poverty nor Riches" 1t
says in part:
1T is to be wished that some of
those who preach and practice a gos-
pei of mere materialfsm and greed and
who speak as if the heaping up of
wealth by the community or by the in
dividual was in itself the be-all and
end-all of life, would learn from the
most widely read and oldest of books
that true wisdom wh,ch teaches that it
is well to have neither great poverty
nor great riches.
The movement which has become so
strong during the last few years to Sc
cure on behalf of the nation both an
adequate supervision of and an effective
taxation of vast fortunes, so far as
their business use is concerned, is
healthy movement. 1t aims to replace
sullen discomfort, restless pessimism
and evil preparation for revolution, by
an aggressive, healthy determination
to get to the bottom of our troubles
and remedy them.
The multimillionaire is not per Sc
a healthy development in this country.
If his fortune rests on a basis of
wrongdoing, he is a far more danger
Gus criminal than the ordinary types
CT criminals can possibly be.
IF his fortune is the result of the
great service rendered. well and good;
he deserves respect and reward for such
service-although we must remember
to pay out homage to the service it
self and not to the fortune which is
the mere reward OF the service-but
when his fortune is passed on to some
one else who has not rendered the
service then the nation should impose
a heavily graded progressive inherit
lance tax, a singularly wise and unob-
tectionable kind of tax. 1t should be
particularly good thing If the tax
bore heaviest on absentees.'
