CAUSE OF DiscoNTENT.

The poor man. or the man moderate

good books Of small collection the
companions OF his home, and who
hangs upon the wall few pictures

lily a meaning. beauty and an inspir'

captain who crowds a magnificent IL
brary with unread books and the un'
appreciated works Of painters and
sculptors. Moreover. II Is not easy
today to tell the rich mans child from
the poor mans child; they wear the
same kind of clothes. attend the same
schools. enjoy the same harmless lux
uries. and In all essential particulars
live upon terms OF equality. says the
Seattle Post-Intelligencer. And SO
far as necessary material comforts are
concerned the poor mans home Is not
different from the rich mans home.
What. then. is the reason for the per
vasive discomfort Of the hour? The
reason is to be found in false sentf
ments and false opinions made posi-
Bile because the poor have been fool
ish enough. In a moment OF passion
and prejudice, to become jealous OF
the vulgar ostentation and unbridled
extravagance of the foolish rich.

New York.-in the last issue OF the
Outlook there appears an article en-
titled president 'raft's Own View; an
Authorized Interview" in which the
President discusses current topics
with an interviewer.
Possibly the principal point OF in

he is willing to accept another term
He was asked:

been widely hinted that your tour was

election?"

Administrations, much OF what ] have
done since | have been in office has
had some political color put upon II
by those who were inclined to be
critical.
"The truth is, however that political
considerations have not weighed
heavily with me. | have tried to do
in each case what seemed to me the
wisest thing, regardless of its effect
upon my own future.
81 am very grateful for the honors

affect to deny the satisfaction /

totals pro and con, and striking bal
ance, they should decide that my first
term had been fruitful enough of good
to warrant their enlisting me for an
other.
ANY man would be proud of such a
verdict. Eut have not been willing,
nor shall | be, to purchase 1t at the
sacrifice of my freedom to do my duty
as see it.
my happiness is not dependent on
holding any office; and ! shall go back
to private life with no heartburnings

view of my administration, conclude
that some one else can serve them to

Changed On Tariff.
Speaking of the tariff issue, Mr.
President, If you could begin your ad-
ministration again, would you repeat
your Winona speech tomorrow" the
interviewer asked.

sors, and it did, as a whole, revise the
existing schedules downward.

N 'NAMARAS DID It
BROTHERS CONFESS
Admit Blowing Up Los Angeles
Times and Iron Works.
CLIMAX IN GREAT TRIAL
Clarence Darrow, Chief Counsel For
Defendants, Comedies That De-
tective BurnU Net Had No
Loopholes.


Los Angeles, Cal.-James B. Nc
Namara pleaded guilty to murder in
the first degree in Judge Walter Bord-
wells Court Friday. His brother,
John j. Mcnamara, secretary of the
international Association of Bridge
and Structural Iron Workers, entered
plea of guilty to having dynamited
the Llewellyn Iron Works in Los
Angeles on Christmas Day, 1910.
James b. McNamara's confession
clears up absolutely the tragedy OF
the explosion and fire which, at l.O7
o'clock on the morning of October /,
1910, wrecked the plant of the Los
Angeles Times, at First street and
Broadway, and caused the death OF u
persons.
For 19 of these deaths the Nc
Namara brothers were indicted and
j. b. Mcnamara was on trial specially
for the murder of Charles j. Hag-
gcrty, a machinist, whose body was
found nearer than that of any other
to the spot where the dynamite was
supposed to have been placed.
Both mems sentences were set for
December 5, when IL is expected that
District Attorney John d. Fredericks
will ask for life Imprisonment for
James b. Mcnamara. the confessed
murderer, and probably IA years for
his brother.
The mems lives are considered
saved
Taken Back To Jail.
After the pleas of guilty had been
received the prisoners were taken
back to jail, Judge Walter Bordwell
retired to his chambers, and opposing
counsel went to their rooms.

guilty because they are guilty" was
