THE PRESIDENT ON HIS TRAVELS

President Taft having given out the
itinerary for his Is, 900 mile journey to
begin tomorrow, local reception COM
mittees may now remove the moth
balls from frock coats, and borrow their
high hats. They can also get all the
satisfaction possible from rehearsing
speeches that will be drowned out by
the uproar of a crowd out to see real
live president.
Let the welcoming committees beware
how they assume dignities with which
they are not familiar. Well do we re-
call how in not distant city former
president was once received.
Few of the men named to escort him
to a picnic ground had ever worn
''pug hat" Blossoming out in this I'M
accustomed state, they were totally IN
able to guage the lofty sweep of the
high head gear. Soon the glossy tiles
were hopelessly dented by unforeseen
contact with limbs of trees and low
doorwavs.
The presidential custom of swinging
around the circle, - is derided as mere
building of political fences. yet even
our revered George Washington de-
scended from his pedestal five months
after Inauguration for long journey
out to meet the every day people.
When President Monroe took his four
months trip in day of no telegraphs
and slow mails, he got all out Of touch
with public business. The newspapers
roasted him well for neglect of his
work. They might have felt better had
he not offended ideas Of Jeffersonian
simplicity by ascending the Delaware
river in boat lined with crimson vel
vet, propelled by oarsmen in white
trousers and sleeves and crimson vests.
When he got to New Hampshire the
governor refused to receive him, and
the party found their way around alone
by the guide boards.
Tosmany onlookers, the hurried and
stereotyped speeches from rear car
platforms, the meaningless tasks of
handshaking, the time spent in useless
contemplation Of freight yards and cross
ties make the journey an irrational one
But no doubt the president gets his
chance to talk with those in each local.
tY who represent the conscience and
brains of that community. AT Wash
ington he see mostly the politician class,
who VIGOROUSLY misrepresent the gen
eral public pulse.
On the road he will hear things worth
listening to from men whose time is
too valuable for hanging around Con-
gressional lobbles.

THE LA TOILETTE PROPAGANDA.

Never before in the history of the
Republic has more systematic effort
to discredit an administration been made
by nominal members of that party from
which the Executive was chosen. The
progressives so-called, are making no
false moves; they are timing every
manoeuvre and it must be said to their
credit they have not hesltated to reveal
their hand.
John Tyler was in bad repute with the
party that made him Vice-President,
thus opening the White House doors to
him; Andrew johnson broke openly with
the Republican Congress after he sue
ceeded Lincoln, and Grover Cleveland,
by his sturdy contempt for reputation
lists, estranged more than three-fourths
of his political friends; but these were
not seeking denominations, at least not
at the hand of the organizations thew
had embittered. The present situation
is without precedent.
Almost simultaneously with the an
nouncement that President Taft would
visit number of EWestern and North
western states, the League" opened
headquarters in Washington, and con-
tributing editor and principal owner of
the leading Republican paper of the
Middle West has been placed IN charge
of the propaganda.
One by one at intervals Senators and
Representative have been announcing
their determination to oppose the pres
ent Executive denomination, and here
and there meetings have been called for
the purpose of duly impressing the
great American public. The latest of
these meetings was held at Minneapolis
Thursday, and it seems that the senti-
ment was all one way.

PASTOR RUSSELL SUED.
Philip Sidersky, of Baltimore, Claims
$4,000 DAMAGES.

Philip SiderskY, of Baltimore, has
filed suit for libel against Pastor Russell
here and service on Pastor Russell was
had at.Mountain Lake Park, where he
was in attendance as chief speaker at
the international Bible Students con-
vention last week.
Sidersky's complaint alleges that he
is and for long time has been conduct
ing a Christian Mission for Jews at Bal
timore, and from which he received
large sums of money, and upon which he
dependedffor,a livelihood and that Pas
tor Russell recently addressed letter
to the Jewish Exponent in which he
stated that said SiderskY was associa-
ted with a street preacher, and that
said Sidersky had induced the Morning
Journal to believe that he is an Ortho-
dox Jew. He further alleges that Pas
tor Russell is so widely and we'll known
throughout the United States that the
publication of said letter has resulted in
the cutting off of his income, to his
damage in the sum of ten thousand dol
lars, because the Jews no longer go TO
mission.
The complaint filed shows an inter
estlng contrast between Sidersky and
Pastor Russell. Sidersky alleges that
he obtained the large yearly income
which Supplied his livelihood by col
Letting money from those interested in
his mission, while Pastor Russell has
never taken up collection during his
forty years service as a minister, but on
the contrary has been and is large
contributor to the International Bible
Students Association, of which he is
President. Siderskv states that he is
trying to Christianize his fellow He
brews for a financial consideration,
where Pastor Russell is advising the
Jews to adhere to Gods promises made
to them through their prophets, and is
not accepting a cent for so doing.

MINING COAL IN MARYLAND

The annual report of the State Mine
Inspector shows gratifying increase in
the amount of coal produced in Mary
land, being ST., 096 tons over last years
total of 4, 716, 382 tons. Of this 1885,
900 tons were produced in Allegany
county, giving employment to 5,O42
men. This means a big industry for
one county, the production being about
half as much as that of West Virginia
best producing county, Mcdowell, and
running far in advance of the average
counties Of that great coal state.
The Inspector calls attention to some
amendments in the laws governing min
ing which he thinks the Legislature
should enact. The suggestions are o.
that fans should be run in mines en-
ploying ten or men, whether mines are
running or not; (2) that miners shall be
prohibited from shooting off the solid
that is, from blasting coal by merely
boring a hole and without any cut-under;
(3)to limit the amount Of powder taken
in the mine by one man to five pounds;
az to compel the use of a better grade
of oil for illumination; (5) to provide for
miners hospitals.
1t will be noted that of the five rec
concentrations made three are for the
purpose of making the miner himself
take better precautions for his own
safety. 1t wiltshire the ordinary OBJ
server as peculiar, yet it is true, never
theless, that the greatest danger to the
miner is the miner himself. One of the
chief of his offenses against his own
safety IS his tendency to save work by
shooting off the solid" The proper
way to NINE coal by the use of explosive
is to cut away the bottom of the coal
with pick or machine, then bore hole
some distance above the cut and put III
the blast. This makes easy work for
the explosive in breaking down" the
coal. But it is easier for the miner to
simply bore hole and put in big blast
and let it blow loose what it will.
AS there is more resistance in such
cases, blowout shots are more usual
that is, shots that act as a charge in a
gun, simply blowing out the 'tamping"
around the charge, and not breaking
down" any coal. In such a case the
fame leaps out from the hole for sew
eral feet, and if there is gas in the mine,
or it is filled with fine, impalpable dust,
this flame is liable to set it off and cause

a terrific explosion. And the peculiar
part of the matter is that it is the eX-
perienced miner who INDUCES in this
laborsaving device.
Also it is the experienced miner who
takes dynamite into the mine and this
is usually against the desire of the OPP
orator, because dynamite, in addition to
being highly dangerous. is quick ex-
plosive and grinds much of the coal to
powder. The practice of taking large
quantities of powder into the mine is
amount thus carried in at one time
should be limited to what is necessary
for one day. Then, too, it is the miner
who uses the inferior grade of oil that
fill the mine with smoke and helps to
generate dangerous gas. So it is seen
that the recommendation of the inspec-
tor respecting these three things are
designed to save the miner from him
self.
That all mines should be well ventil-
ated1goes without saying, and the fans
should be kept busy at all times, wheth-
err the mines are being operated every
day or.not. Thus the gas and foul air
are drawn out to allow the cool, pure
air to rush in and take its place, and
the mine is rendered safe. That hos

PNEUMONIA.
TIA Boat Friend 10 Bad Cold That Has
Been Neglected.

Pneumonia is not dreaded mere
ly for its power to seize and kill
quickly, but also for its apparent
power to select the most unlikely
victims. Most persons have lived
through the shock of hearing that
some friend had suddenly died Of
pneumonia--a friend from whom
they had parted but few days or
even hours before, leaving him at
what seemed the highest notch of
physical well being and perhaps
protesting that he did not know
what illness meant.
This disease is most dangerous to
the apparently strong, robust peo-
pie of heavy weight and hearty ap-
petite, although it may attack any
one, for its germs are omnipresent.
The strong and full blooded indi-
vidual who is at the same time
something overweight is especially
in danger of pneumonia and should
take particular care to avoid it. If
his diet is too heavy--and that may
safely be assumed--it should be
ruthlessly cut down, especially as to
meat and the elimination of alcohol.
Phe weighing scale is a good
friend to such person and should
be consulted regularly. The scale
does not argue about that extra
pound or two--it proves it--and aft
er a weight in accordance with age
and height has been determined it
can be maintained in most cases by
the exercise of little self control.
There are hosts of people who in
dolently permit themselves to get
heavy and even fat in the winter
months. They are the people who
should be constantly reminded,
"The pneumonia germ II git yer if
yer don't watch outp
The condition of the man must
be recognized as more important
than the presence of the germ, as
proved by the fact that there is less
mortality among the thin and ap-
parently delicate than among the
stout and full blooded.
Some of the phrases used by the
laity on this subject have, after all,
more sense than nonsense in them.
1t is said that some one is threat
ened with pneumonia" or that a
"bad cold ran into pneumonia" and
in sense it is true, for every one is
"threatened" with pneumonia; that
is to say, the germ is always present
and ready and willing to begin its
work if one only gives it chance.
The most successful way to give
it chance is to neglect bad cold
and thus break down the natural
defenses of the system. If every
bad cold were met with starvation,
physic and fresh air it would de-
part in disgust, and the lurking
pneumonia with it, for the large
burglar cannot get in through a
hole which has refused to admit the
smaller one.-Yo Youths Companion.
