THE CHILDHOOD SPIRIT.
This Is the childhood spirit
Morning, with life made anew;
Faith, or the next thing to it,
The habit of being true.
Give me its simple beauty
More than the splendid world.
With never a fall from duty,
Never a banner furled.
This is the childhood spirit
Life and the dewy song;
The far-off hills to hear it,
The thoughts that are long, long,
long.
Bring me its crystal beaker,
Pour me its beauteous wine
The dream OF the fairy seeker,
The trust of the clinging wine.
This is the childhood spirit
To know all, things to know;
To feel all things and hear it,
The which and the why and so,
Give me its joy unresting,
It's universe in a room,
With a rainbow around its heavea
And the road through a field Of
bloomi
Baltimore Sun.

contrast. Senator Lodge was called
into the campaign, but he, too, failed
utterly in his attempt to disprove the
argument of Foss. The democratic
candidate showed that the contrast
in the cost of living in Detroit and
Windsor was not an exception, but
the general rule between protective
and free trade countries. He cited
comparative prices in Montreal, st.
John, New Brunswick, and Boston,
easily disproving the allegation that
the ever-increasing prices in the
United States are merely in keeping
with a worldwide upward movement.
Indications multiply that President
Taft and the reactionary supporters
of the administration in house AID
senate regard a conflict with former
President Roosevelt and his. support
ers inevitable, and are therefore pre-
pairing for 1t. The Ballinger state
ment presented to the investigating
committee, ridiculing the Roosevelt
| conservation policy and abusing the
chief upholders of that policy, is
/ open expression of hostility to the
/ Roosevelt spirit. For some time, how
ever. it has been plain that the pres
/ ident was being led or forced into
/ a position where the possibility of re-
Cancellation between himself and his
/ predecessor was rapidly disappear
/ ing. There is no doubt that early
! in his administration President Taft
/ hoped for an endorsement by Roose-
welt. but it is extremely doubtful if
he is now optimistic on that score.
Following the precedent of the old
committee on rules, the new organi-
! zation is making a practice of swal-
| lowing bodily and for all time, reso-
| buttons disapproved of by cam
aign-fund-contributi corporations.
! Should the committee later reverse
! this policy, your correspondent, In
| justice to the reformed body, will
/ fully report the same. One of the
resolutions that has apparently gone
/ to its last rest in the new rules COM
mittee catacombs Is the Rainey reso-
( luton providing for an investigation
of the sugar trust scandal. Not
word has been heard of this measure
since 1t was referred to the commit
tee and it is now generally believed to
| have persisted.
So far as the senate is concerned
the joker in the administration rail-
road regulation bill which will have
the alleged effect of legalizing the
Southern Pacif1c-Union Pacific mer-
ger, is still intact. The joker has
been stricken from the house bill.
This joker is but one of many bad
features of the bill which have been
carefully pointed out by Senators
Cummins, Clapp and others. Refer

Secretary Wilson last spring headed

Washington. Aug. 26.-The threat
Of Attorney General Bingham Of In
diana, to take to President Taft the
charge Of favoritism on the part of
the department Of agriculture toward
benzoate of soda and the manufact-
urers using the drug as a food pre-
sentative has caused something of a
sensation by the action of the district
courts in removing the gag which
had been placed on DR.. Harvey w.
Wiley. the pure food champion. At
torney General Bingham charges that
not only did the department permit.
but even requested" the members Of
the Remsen board which decided
against DR.. Wiley's views, to testify
In behalf of the Curtice Bros, of Ro-
chester. and the Williams Bros Co.,
of Detroit. in the suit brought by them
in the federal court to have the Indi-
ana pure food law declared unconsti-
tutional; while 1t forbid DIR. Wiley to
testify unless ordered by the district
of Columbia courts. This compelled
the Indiana attorney general to come
to Washington to secure an order
from the court and take the testi-
mony here instead of in Indianapolis.
He also claims he was at first refused
certain original documents necessary
to his case, the same being the de-
partment Of agricultural record and
being public.
Attorney General Bingham secured
the order from Justice Barnard and
DR.. Wiley testified. and, as was ex.
pected. his testimony was adverse to

Gag Removed From Dr.. Wiley
In Indiana Pure Food Suit

the benzoate of soda cause It is the
nrst time that Dr. Wiley has been
permitted to speak in public in de-
Tense of his attitude against this pre-
sentative since Secretary Wilson de
termined to stand by the report OF
the Remsen board and the ketchup
manufacturers who use benzoate OF
soda. The gag was administered to
him and it was not removed until
the court so ordered.
The gagging of DR.. Wiley is in line
with the other efforts of the depart
ment of agriculture in behalf OF ben
zoate Of soda. When the association
OF state and national dairy and food
departments held its annual conven-
ton in Denver last year Secretary
Wilson was on hand with six votes
from the department and three from
the District of Columbia to cast in
behalf of resolution lifting the ban
which had previously been placed by
the association on benzoate of soda
The members of the Remsen hoard
were also present and spoke in behalf
of the preservative. but not word
was DR.. Wiley allowed to say in his
defense. he.secretary of agriculture
also did effective personal work with
the delegates in which he was assist
ed by his delegates, and it has been
charged that for six weeks before the
convention an emissary of the depart
ment was touring some of the states
and territories at the governments ex-
pense for the purpose of getting new
members for the association and dele

Mrs. Carrie Bolton, widow of Ly-

has returned to the late home Of her
parents in Sunbury. About the only
visible mark of the tragedy is bad
finger on Mrs. Bottoms right hand. It
will never be of any use because of
the stiffness resulting from a knife

aged l year on Wednesday.
There is a fine garden tract at the
old home, and it is the plan of the
widowed lady to raise truck for a
living. Three of the children are
old enough to give more or less as
sistance in running the gardens, es-
pecially in the case of Robert, who
has always been commended for his

Literary Hobo.
Rider Haggard was on one occasion
travelling across the United States as
the guest of John Hays Hammond in
Hammond's private car.
What / want to see," said Hag-
gard, lis the real tramp. / haven't
seen one since l reached this country.
I can't believe you have as many as
has been stated to be the case"
Harris Hammond. the eldest son of
John Hays. promised.
.'I'll show you one at the next stop.
He had seen one riding on the trucks
under the car, and at the next station
he went down and called the hobo out
When the tramp entered the car he
was covered with cinders and dust
and looked like something from the
lower regions.
Hammond shook hands with him
and introduced him, saying:
.This is Mr.. Rider Haggard."
"Rider Haggards' exclaimed the
hobo. "Why, I've read all of your
books and loved every one of them?'
Then he sat down and discussed lit
erature with Haggard for half an
hour. AtSthe end of the talk Harris
took him back, let him get some OF the
dust and cinders off and handed him a
good cigar.

Haggard. Hes a gentleman In dis
