John Smith-plain John Smith-is not very high sounding; it does not suggest aristocracy; it is not the name of any hero in die-away novels; and yet 1t is good, strong and honest Transferred to other languages, it seems to climb the ladder of respecta- bility. Thus, in Latin, it is Johannes Smithus; the Italian smooths it of into Giovanni Smithi;. the Spaniards render it Juan Smithus; the Dutch man adopts 1t as Hans Schmidt; the French fctten it out into Jean Sheet and the Russian sneezes and barks onion Smithtowski When John Smith gets into the tea trade in Can ton he becomes Jovan Shimniit; if he chambers above Mount Hecla the Ice landers say he is Jahne Smithson; ii he trades among the Tuscaroras he becomes Ton ca Smittia; in Poland he Is known as Ivan Schmittiweiski; !; should he wander among the Welsh mountains they talk of Jfhon Schmjdd; when he goes to Mexico he is hooked as.

 Servants Thought of Him.

A certain peer, an important figure in the upper chamber by reason or a very long and very bushy beard, had dismissed his valet for the night. Shortly afterward, however, he was much annoyed to hear peais Of laugh ter from below, and called back the man to explain
 The valet answered that it was just 1 little joke. but his lordship would have none of It. and demanded details, angrily.
 Well" admitted the man with re- luctance, it was really little game we were having, my lord"
 What kind of B gamer"
 Well, my lord, kind of guessing game"
 Don't be fool, Walters; rang for you in order to get an explanation What guessing game were you play Ing? Guessing what?"
 We slindfolded the cook, to tell you the truth, my lord. and then one of us kissed her and she had to guess who it was. The footman held the mop up and she kissed it, and then cried out: Q, your iordship; how dare you! - Dundee Advertiser.

BEAD THE REVIEW WHILE ON
 YOUR VACATION.
DIVIDED AS
 NEVER BEFORE.

Not tor many years have the Re- puplcans in both branches of Con gross been so widely divided as to- day. The breach between the 1nsur- gents and regulars in the House and the progressives and regulars in the Senate is so wide as not to be heal ed by ordinary means The predic- ton Is freely made that unless eX- traordinary measures are employed the next House of Representatives Will be Democratic.
 In the House the insurgents ap- pear to be a constantly increasing body. The vote.on the tariff bill did not develop their maximum strength. Then only twenty republicans, re presenting eight States voted with the opposition. The actual insur- gent strength is nearer forty. On the other hand, the progressiyes In the Senate do not seem to increase in numbers. The regulars there are too firmly intrenched. Besides, Sen ators are elected by legislatures and not by the people. Consequently It Is a foregone conclusion that the reg uiars will continue to hold the upper hand.
 The House passed the tariff Dill by twelve majority. Had the RepuDli- cans had six votes less they would have failed to do so. With a Repuo- lican majority of tifty-tive they had a margin altogether too narrow for comfort They are somewhat con cerned, too, because the lnsurgent strength comes from states which must be carried in order to control Congress. Indiana, Kansas, Iowa, M1nneasota and wisconsin nave fir ty-two members in the House, more than the present Republican major 1ty If one half of these members should be lost, the House would De Democratic These states are ex- tremely dissatisfied with the new tar if law.
 Facuonal differences have been extending. They began in the last Congress with the Committee on Rules. They continued with the re- elecron Of Speaker cannon, winch, it will be remembered, was emected by the aid of Democratic votes. They now extend to the new tariff law. which brings the whole matter back to the people at the polls 1n ly1u.

roLrclss AND POLITICIANS.

The city campaign Tn Pnfladeiphia for the district attorneyship and two minor ofiices is in full swing, with a strong Independent movement a. galnst the dominant kepuDncan or ganization. There is every prospect that the contest &in be as bitter as that tour years ago, when the Re pupncan organization was defeated by 4S.oOo majority.
 Although the state primary in AT anama will not be held until next year. the contest for office has be come so tangled up with the ques- tion of prohibition that the vote on the latter in November is likely to decide who is to be the next goTer nor of the state. the next united states senator and to i'll all th' other important omces.

FOWLER TO
 SPEAKER CANNON.
-1


 One and the main reason for Mr towIer's removal was no doubt as he insists, his insurgency against the Cannon dictatorship last spring other men similarly oHending nave been similarly dealt with. But an ether undoubted cause of the Speak CTS action in this case is the appar- ent fact that Mir. Aldrich of the Sen ate has determined upon plan ot can never gain the support of men of Fowlers understanding of the question, and which accordingly, tor it's easter enactment, demands his r. moval from a strong obstructive DO. sition. What the Aldrich plan is ze- mains to be seen. But If his pres ent work in this connection is to be judged by his past work, the coun- try may well take alarm and put It. self on guard. What MT. Fowler says of the Aldr1ch-Vreeland currency bill of the last Congress Is true. It IS likely to prove wholly useless for any purpose, but it can never De brought into use for a good purpose or for any end better than a Wild currency imitation, piled on top ot the present gold imitation, to further the schemes of stock JoDbers and bond tiotauonists with the great government currency market it sup plies for railroad and other corpor- ation bonds. If a Populist had de v1sed such legislation it would sim ply be called crazy. As it is we must call it artful and mischievous, and Nreeland, who helped the Senate member of the congressional trium- v1rate to devise it, now takes Tow ler's place on the Currency Commit tee, evidently for further willing ser. vice of the kind. It is a question 1n- deed whether these batteries should not have been trained upon the Rhode Island senator rather than the Speaker, whose dictatorship in the House seems to acknowledge a dictatorship for itself from the mas ter of the United States Senate.
 1t is of special interest in this con nection to note what Mir. Fowler says of the makeup of the conference committee on the tarin bill A con, spiracy is charged ior the deception of President Taft and the packing ol the committee Tn the interest ol nigher-thanever tarfn Certainly the matter is made to look decidedly queer How otherwise explain the selection of House conferees, in ey1 dent eonsuitauon with Aiarlcn, un der the obviously false pretense O being guided by sectional consider ationsy The President ought to DC an interested reader of this Fowiel letter.
 The conclusion 1t should force up on the whole country is that a rev oiution in the present order of tns House of Representatives is needed and must come if anything resemh ling parliamentary or representatiy'
 government is to be retained in tn ! united States The situation repre- T sented by ~Cannonism" is shamefu ] to the country, if 1t can not be mad
