SERIOUS
Burns Sustained By Druggist
Vim. Allen
By The Explosion OF Flash
light Powder

William +. Allen, the well known
South Main street druggist, was ter
ribly burned about the face and hands
by the explosion of nashlight powder
at his drug store Friday afternoon
about o'clock.
Mr.. Allen was putting up some
flash-light powder for customer
when an explosion resulted in some
manntr and the flames shot into his
face aud neck. 1t was seen at once
that he was badly burned and he was
removed to his home in the Kokosing
Block where DR., b. r. Humbert was
called in attendance.
On Saturday morning Mr.. Allen was
unable to see on account of the burns
and since the accident has been unable
to open his mouth. His burns are re-
garded as serious.

publican house, are now admitted to
have been but excuses.
The real reason as to why the Re-
publicans were unwilling to permit
congressional investigation of the SUI
gar trust is, therefore, again a de-
batable question. Was it because the
attorney general had been a former
sugar trust attorney as well as form
er steel trust attorney? Was it be-
cause Henry p Taft, the brother of
the president, was then and is now
the official sugar trust attorney? Or
was it because the sugar trust has
always been friend and ally of the
Republican party, and one of its star
campaign fund contributors?

Runnina Down a Clue,

While investigating expenditures in
the state department, where 1t cost
$206 to shoe four horses for year,
the House investigating committee
struck upon clue tending to show
that an artist of the name of Rosen-
thai had been paid $3.50 for portrait
of Justice W. r. Day and that the rec
ords of the state department had been
doctored to show that he had been
paid S2,450. Rosenthal testified he
signed blank voucher when he was
given the $3.50 Subsequently a
voucher was made to show he had
acknowledged the receipt of $2,450.
AS it is the duty of the committee
under the law to investigate the ex
penditures in the state department
Chairman Hamlin ordered the depart
ment to produce its books. Instead OF
doing so the Secretary of State ap
peared before the committee with q
letter from the president ordering him
not to comply with the committees de
mands.

Fighting Reciprocity

The Senate is attempting to kill the
reciprocity bill by SO amending il that
it will not be acceptable to Canada.
Senator Root of New York is pre-
pairing an amendment in the interest
of. the paper trust. 1t will be recalled
that when reciprocity was before the
Senate at the last session Senator
Root was one OF those who were bois-
ferrous in their protests that amend
ment was impracticable and impossi-
BILE. That was less than five months
ago, and now Mr.. Root, reversing him
self, declares the agreement must be
amended so as to benefit the paper in
terests. His opposition is only a part
of systematic campaign being waged
against reciprocity.

Commission Aptly Named

1t Is known now why Senator Aid
rich calls his lame duck commission
monetary" commission. 1t is because
1t spends so much money
The monetary commission, accord
ing to treasury report, has expend-
ed $2O7, ,130.48 of the peoples money
on European travel, meetings at ia
nous summer resorts, on manuscripts,
book translations monographs and
members salaries. The report also
contains various insinuating entries
that read account clerical force and
persons in attendance on commits
sion"
The European trip cost $19,250.lS.
1t was nice summer trip and any
body who has travelled with a Cook
party will tell you that select little
party of a half dozen can make a
mighty fine circuit of the continent for
$19,250S0 The account is not item
lied beyond this statement. Indeed,
Senator Aldrich has fixed it so the
commission may spend any amount of
money it desires without consulting
anyone, and without giving a detailed
report to anyone. The former senator
Is not hampered by any formalities
whatever. He has only to reach into
the treasury, Act money and sign re-
ceipt. 1t Is appalling to contemplate
what would happen to the treasury If
all commissions and departments of
the government were permitted to en-
ploy similarly loose business methods
while spending the peoples money,
However, as freshair fund to pro-
mote the recuperation OF lame ducks,
the commission is manifestly a big
success. To this end witness the meet
ing of the commission at Narragansett
Pier in July, 1909. 1t takes monetary
bcaking to 20 to Narragansett in July.
The bill was 81, 3,493, a!
And Senator Cummins of Iowa is
sufficiently inconsiderate OF the
health of the lame ducks to contend
that the commission Is absolutely use
less to the people, and that 1t ought
to be abolished,
