LUMBER TRUST PROBE.
Special Federal Grand Jury Begins al
Investigation.

Special Federal Grand Jury Begins an
Investigation.
A special federal grand jury at Chi.
cago began its investigation into the
lumber trust at the federal court
building. More than 200 lumber men
have been subpenaed to give testi.
mony as to whether. the alleged com.
bine has conspired to fix prices and
to blacklist and boycott certain con.
Germs which sell direct to the consum
er eliminating the retailer
A significant phase Of the inquiry is
the summoning of employees of the
Weyerhauser-Hines interests to ties
tify. This combination, the govern
ment asserts. acts as a barometer OF
the lumber trade in the country.

Eyes With Double Pupils.
Cicero says that the glance Of al
women with the double pupil In the
eye is noxious, blighting and wither.
ing" Cadmus tells us that such per-
sons would not drown. Still others say
that If they did drown the body would
never sink. neither would it decay.
They could cure the disease of the
chest-consumption--by rubbing their
perspiration on the affected parts Of
the individual. and in case the double
pupils were red instead of black they
could cure the lepers and the blind. So
thought the aneients.

By the act of Judge Conyers, of the
Brunswick, Ga, circuit, the neck of F.
T. Taylor, a white man, convicted of
the murder of W. A. Belcher in Ap.

Brown was notified by Sheriff R. L.
Overstreet Friday morning, and
granted a respite to the condemned
man, Immediately wiring the sheriff
to obey the mandate of the Judge and
stay execution. This action was taken
because of a motion for a new trial

LET THE END COME.

The world is coming to an end
next year possibly, within five years
without doubt, says Elder 0. Mont
gomery, president of the Indiana
Conference of the Seventh Day Adj
ventists, in an address delivered
at recent meeting of the confer
ence. The elder may be right in
his prediction and there may be a
fiery visitation that will destroy
all evil and make the earth a fit
habitation for those who love God.
Should the end of all terrestrial af-
fairs occur next year. it will be a
great disappointment to an army OF
politicians in this country who are
anxious to hold office and are neg
lecting their eternal salvation to
satisfy their ambitions. But what
a Joke it would be on Taft, Wilson,
LaFollette, Harmon, McGovern,
Clark and a lot of other political
schemers, should the end come
next year and they find themselves
roasted. 1t would certainly be a
hell of a joke, but then they will
not refrain from their activity, for
the prediction may not be fulfilled,
and if it is, they will all be given
a long rest and the people be
spared from annoyance and un-
rest, at least, as far as personal
politics is concerned, for that is
the kind we will have except in the
case of Taft and Wilson.

A DAFFY SENATOR.

1t would be we'll for the senate
to start another investigation-as
to the sanity of the misft senator
from Oregon, who has introduced
a bill requiring that decisions by
the supreme court of the United
States on questions efecting the
constitutionality of any provision
Of federal or state law must be
unanimous. Such a law would be
as much of burlesque as some of
the senators and work incalcuable
injury. One member of the SUI
preme court could prevent a de-
cision in matters of the most vital
Importance to both nation and
state. AS Senator Bourne believes
in the recall" it might be we'll
for the people of his state to give
him a recall and send a man as his
successor who is not a fit subject
for an insane asylum. Minority
legislation is bad enough, but the
minority should not be given the
power to defeat justice in the SUI
preme court.

not bound by the findings of the

The President and standpat
members of Congress have raised
the point that before there should
be a revision of the tariff sched-
ules on wool and cotton, a report
from the tariff commission should
be received, although Congress
would not be bound by such re-
port. The writer was opposed to
the tariff commission when created
for three reasons. First, it would
delay the revision which the peo-
pie are demanding and was in the
interest of the manufacturers, who
have become immensely rich by
charging the consumers exorbitant
prices for their products, the tariff
being so high as to practically pro-
hibit importation. Second, the ex-
pense of the commission was use
less and criminal waste of the peo-

sed country of ours is suffering
from deluge of politicians and a
dearth of statesmen.
Instead of statesmen, who, work
ing for the best interests of the
country, look into the future and
provide by proper legislation to
meet the needs of the people. We
have politicians who have forced
themselves to the front by dema-
gogery, which appeals to the sell
fish and thoughtless. Our bust
ness men in a great measure are
responsible for existing conditions
by not taking an active part in po-
liticaI affairs. The conditions are
far worse than before we had a pri-
mary election, which in a large
measure has destroyed party unity
and given control in many states
to men inspired by anarchial SEN
timents, which are proving de-
structive to business and will ter
inmate in national disaster. Presi-
nent Taft is doing all he can to
guide the ship of state safely away
from the destructive shoals and
rocks toward which we are rapidly
drifting under the pilotship of I'M
safe, impractical men. 1t was a
great misfortune to this country
when Senator Spooner resigned and
Senator Dolliver passed away.
A new revolution has been start
ed in Mexico and 20, 900 men have
taken up arms to overthrow the
government of the dictator, Mad
ero, and thousands of the citizens
of that unhappy country are petit
tioning Diaz to return and bring
order out of the chaos into which
the insurgents have plunged that
country. In a business way, this
country will have a similar expe-
rience under the leadership of i'm
practical politicians, who are seek
ing their own advantage and not
caring continental for the coun-
try.
