A RICH BIT OF HUMOR FROM
NEW ENGLAND.

The following Is from a recent decla-
ration by Andrew J. Peters, Democratic
Representative in Congress from the
Eleventh district OF Massachusetts:
I am opposed to Cannon not only
on personal grounds, but because he
represents the centralized control
which cares nothing for the peoples
rights. but is purely for the benefit
OF the Republican party and the in
forests which control its machine.
The power of Cannon is derived from
the support Of these interests exerted
through the Republican machine.
The only way TO end the
tyranny OF Cannon is 10 end the
power Of the party which retains him
as it's leader and 10 elect a democratic
House.
On March i, 1909, a vote was taken
in the House of Representatives on a
motion that would continue or curtail
what Mr.. Peters calls the tyranny OF
Cannon according as the motion was
defeated or carried. Among those who
voted to continue the said tyranny
were twenty-three Democrats.
One of those tweuty-three Democrats
was Andrew J. Peters, Representative
in Congress from the Eleventh district
Of Massachusetts,.

One American street car company has
followed the precedent set in some
cities abroad Of solving the trouble
some haIf-fare question. The plan is
to so by size instead Of by age. Instead
Of permitting children under seven or
twelve OF whatever age may be fixed
upon-a thing which the conductor has
no way Of determining-to ride at half
fare, a height limit is used. In Gin
cinnati any person whose head shows
above the mark In the car forty-five
inches from the floor must pay full
fare. The scheme looks like a sensible
one The only regret to see il general
ly adopted would be that il would put
an eXtinguisher on the ever-recurring
story of the infant terrible who puts
the fond parent in an embarrassing
position by insisting that he is over

MRS. HOWE NOBLE AS POET
AND PHILANTHROPIST.

The whole English-speaking world
admired Julia Ward Howe as a poet
for half century. The stir that her
Battle Hymn Of the Republic" created
is still felt strongly and sincerely
wherever Americans, especially North
erners, are gathered to hear the old
sentiments and sing the old songs.
That song by itself would entitIe Mrs.
Howe TO enduring fame.
But there are other poems, lighter
and sweeter, revealing the poets deep
sympathy and tenderness. Still it was
not in her poetry alone that Mrs. Howe
exercised her extraordinary gifts.
Higher even than the poet in this case
stood the Philanthropist, who fought
With all her might and skill to advance
every liberal cause. every phase of a
broader and brighter civilization, and
who continued fighting long after
was reasonable to expect so venerable
a woman to engage actively in the
controversies Of the day.
Foremost in war with her poetry and
foremost in peace with her philan-
thropy, Julia Ward Howe, now gone
10 her eternal rest at the rare age of
ninety-one, viii always be remember
ed as one of the most influential wom-
en- of her times.
