Washington and the "Ad" Men.

Washington received its share of pub
licity at the convention of the Associ-
ated Advertising Clubs of America, held
in Boston last week The delegates of
the Washington Ad Club, as we'll as the
representative of the Chamber of Com
merce, did their best to influence a
choice of this city as meeting place
for the conventions of that organization,
and the chairman of the conventions
committee of the local Chamber read
an interesting address on municipal ad-
vertising, which, according to news dis
patches, was well received. Advertising
men everywhere were informed OF the
efforts of the Chamber to acquaint the
country with the advantages the
Capital City has to offer to the in
vestor, homeseeker, and manufacturer.
The enterprise of the men who went
to Boston deserves the Acknowledgement
of every resident of this city, and it is
20 be hoped that the seed thus sown
will speedily bear fruit At any rate.
there is cause for satisfaction because
of the prominence given to Washington
by those who represented the city at
the convention.

should be persistent

into the violation" Not content with
mere assertion, Mr. Wise read letters
showing Jackson knew that he was vio-
lating the law and that he expected the
Department of Justice would be so busy
with other violators that it would over
look his operations.
Mr.. Jackson did not, however, go to
prison. He was fined $1,000 on each of
the nine indictments against him, and he
paid the entire amount in cash and
walked out of the court room. His
profits out of the pools have amounted
to about $I,ooo,ooo. Judge Archibald, by
the way, is the same judge who allowed
the indicted men in the wire pool
agreement to pay fines of $1,000 each.
And it was the same Judge Archibald,
sitting in the same court, before whom
there came, a few days ago, a Greek
named Dionysius Pollas, who was
charged with some small frauds in i'm
porting cheese and figs. He was suf-
fering from incipient tuberculosis, and
his plea for fine was supported by a
physicians certificate that imprisonment
might cause fatal Illness
But the Greek went to prison for
three months, sentenced by Judge Arch
bald.

the citizens are heard from,
THE residents with whom talked the
other day have no objection to the pres
ent location of the playground. with the
exception of the fact that the grass has
been killed. but they oppose the moving
of the playground apparatus to the west
ern portion of the park Such move
they said, would bring the playground
in front of their houses. and mar their
beautiful view through the park.
Location Is Satisfactory.
i know nothing at all OF the proposed
change of site. That is a project of Col
Cosby, who has charge of public build
ings and grounds, and the question will
have to be settled with him. am per-
fectly satisfied with the present location
When asked what he thought Of the
moving Of the Fairgrounds to some va
cant lot in the vicinity, which plan has
been suggested by citizens of the south
east section, Mr.. Martin replied that he
would have to examine the proposed site
before committing himself.
Mr.. Martin visited most of the play
grounds of the city yesterday to become
better acquainted with conditions. He is
delighted with the Fairgrounds. and is
over the work which lies
before him of making the children Of the
Capital happy and of keeping them
healthy.

A New Reform in Kansas.

The latest reform in Kansas is law
requiring statesmen who offer shares in
stock companies for sale to pay a Ii
cense The State bank commissioner,
believing that his duties comprise more
than the compilation of figures for BIZ
ennial reports to the legislature, pre-
pared a bill, which was passed at last
winters session of the legislature, CON-
pelling every vendor of shares of stock
to get permit from the State banking
department, and to demonstrate the
safe character of his investment before
being granted such permit.
Since that new law went into effect a
few weeks ago, more than 800 appllca-
tions have been received at the banking
department to sell stock, out of which
the commissioner has approved eighteen.
He says that the people of his State
have been feeced out of no less than
$5,ooo,ooo year by fake investment
schemes, all promising big dividends,
but proving worthless in the end.
There is an old saying that the Lord
takes care of children and fools. Out
in Kansas it is now the business of the
State to protect the fools against
themselves.

A Respecter of Persons.

In the United States Circuit Court
in New York City last Friday a re-
markable scene was enacted Edwin
E. Jackson, jr., the organizer and super
visor Of the nine steel wire pools which
led to the indictment of -eighty-three
men for violating the Sherman law, was
brought into court for sentence. Henry
A. Wise, the United States district at
torney. made strong plea for prison
sentence. In my opinion said the
district attorney, this man is the worst
type of criminal society can be damned
with. He knew he was violating the
Sherman law and he dragged others

HOUSE TEAMS ON EDGE

Congress will convene at Georgetown
University athletic field at $3.50 o'clock
tomorrow afternoon in a most extraor
dinary session for the consideration of
the baseball schedule. This schedule
involves the annual game between par
ty mines in the House. and Majority
Leader Kinkead and Minority Leader
Burke are confident that something is
going to happen before the session ad-
journs.
At the Capitol yesterday. the universal
question was Going to the gamer" From
the answers given 1t is predicted that the
baseball field will look something like
regular Congress working overtime
The proceeds Of the game will be de-
voted to the Washington Playground
Association funds.
Just TO show how the solons think
about the game, some Of their opinions
are quoted below:

PLANNING TO HALT
HOLDING COMPANY
Government Fears Central
lied Control of Banks.

Information yesterday indicated that
officials of the administration consider
that the growth OF the national bank
holding company scheme, as planned by
the National City Bank of New York,
through the newly organized National
City Company, would threaten the evil
of a centralized control of the countrys
banking resources.
Secretary of the Treasury Macveagh,
who is now considering the report Of
Attorney General Wickersham on the
National City Company, seems rather to
be seeking a way under the existing
banking laws for the government to pro-
Ceed against such organizations than to
be weighing the question of the pro-
priety of allowing the holding bank plan
to be continued. 1t is intimated that If
the government cannot find grounds un-
der the existing banking laws to proceed
against these holding companies, that
new legislation will be sought.

mission which has unlimited time in
which to report, means that neither ma
ton could rush headlong into war. A
quarrel that is allowed to simmer for a
year or more before it comes to boil
ing point may eventually cool off. This
is evidently what is hoped to be gained
by the treaty, although occasion might
easily arise when one nation or the other
might continue restive for year.
1t is pleasing to note that the treaties
do not take away from Congress the
eventual decision as to the course
which the United States ought to pur-
sue Under the Constitution, Congress
alone has the power to declare war.
The founders of our government, with
faith in the judgment and patriotism
of the representatives of the people,
placed the honor of the nation in their
hands. No attempt has been made to
transfer this authority to The Hague
court or a joint high commission. 1t
would have been inexcusable to have
even suggested a usurpation of Con-
gressional power.
These treaties are, in the very nature
of things, the most important documents
which have been submitted to the Sen
ate for many years. 1t is quite evident
that they raise considerations which de-
serve the most careful attention. They
are framed for perpetuity, and for this
reason ought not to be acted upon with
out the utmost deliberation. Every
contingency that the future may pre-
sent ought to be given thoughtful care.
There is a sentiment about universal
peace which is naturally attractive, and
war ought to be avoided. The treaties
may, therefore, be ratified because they
tend toward the idealistic common BROTH
erhood of man. If this step is taken,
however, it ought to be with the full
understanding that we have entered into
agreements which are to be sacredly
observed, and not to be swept aside
under the severest provocation. If they
are not accepted and obeyed in this
spirit, they become, not the great in
struments for good which is their be-
rign purpose, but lies upon their face
and chapters Of hypocrisy.

CHAMP CLARK TOO BUSY
TO SEEK PRESIDENCY

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Aug. 5.-Speaker
Champ Clark, in letter to E. Percy
Faust, of the Weatherly Pa) Herald,
declares that he is not candidate for
President and is not going to neglect the
work in Congress to run after another
Office. He says:
Il want to thank you for the things
you have said about me in connection
with the Presidential nomination and
otherwise While l am not a candidate
for President and may never be, con-
slider 1t a great compliment to be thought
of or mentioned in that high connection
by my fellow-citizens.
1.-The victory of last November was won
on the fight that was made by the House
Democrats against Cannonism. the rules,
and the Payne tariff bill. That was
great victory. We not only elected q

ernors of Northern States As result
OF it, the party placed me in the most
responsible position it had to give.
My duty is here, helping the House
to make good, and l am going to stay
here as long as there is anything for
me to do. In other words, I am not
going to neglect the work here in order
to run around the country after another
office.
Il regard the record we are making
in our Democratic House as superb. We
are busy carrying out our promises to
the people, AMI we will continue on that
line. / thank you for the kind things
that you say about me. and am. glad to
observe that the Democrats are demon
strating their capacity to run the House.
They can run all branches of the gov
ernment just as successfully If given the
opportunity, and l believe the work of
this House will result in our controlling
them all after the next election

beat US last year. but we're for

Representative z. w. Roberts,
sincerely hope the Republicans will
beat the faces OFF the Democrats.
Outside of that, I'm not interested
in the result.
Representative Ayres-Being Of
fetal scorer for the Democratic side
well, I'm pretty sure the Demo-
Gratis will win.
Senator Pomerene-I want 1t un-
derstood that I'm giving my dollar
to the Fairgrounds fund, and it must
not be construed as a testimonial
of my regard for the members of
the House as baseball players.
Senator Cullom-I hope the Re-
publicans win. It's pretty near
time we won something.

Not a House of Cards.

The statement that the men in the
Senate and House who are endeavorng
TO frame a compromise upon the wool
bill are building a house of cards which
is to be swept away when the President
afhxes his signature to a veto mes
sage is not an accurate description of
the situation.
The very critics who are attempting
to belittle the work of the tariff re-
visionists are applauding President Taft
for negotiating universal arbitration
treaties with Great Britain and France
They insist that even if the treaties
come to naught, the President has car
ried this country long step forward in
the direction Of universal peace. 1t has
even been asserted that if war should
not be prevented, the President ought
not to suffer one jot or title in the
credit which is due him for the effort
And if this be true, then the effort to
give the country the tariff reform for
which it is earnestly clamoring is not
altogether futile, even if it should fail
Of immediate victory because of the
Presidents opposition. 1t will have
demonstrated to the country that there
are enough Democrats and tariff reform
Republicans in Congress to carry into
effect the promises which have been
made in the past, and it is the straw
which shows the direction of the wind.
If the effort to reduce taxation shall
fail, the people will render judgment
at the polls.

CURIOUS BITS OF HISTORY
BY A. w. MACY.
STRANGE DYING REQUEST OF
TWO KINGS.

STRANGE DYING REQUEST OF
TWO KINGS.
Edward /. King of England,
and Robert Bruce, King of Scot
land. were deadly enemies, and
faced each other in many a hard
fought battlefield; and strangely
enough each left a dying request
that after death his heart should
be removed from his body and
buried In the Holy Land. But in
neither case was the request car
ried out. Edwards son disobeyed
his fathers command. and buried
his body in Westminster Abbey,
the heart with 1t. Bruce's friend,
Sir James Douglas, attempted TO
carry out his instructions. The
heart was removed from the
body, embalmed, and inclosed In
a silver case. This Sir James
suspended from his neck and
started for the Holy Land. I'm
fortunately he stopped in Spain
to assist in war against the
Moors. and was slain in battle.
His body was found, the locket
recovered, and the heart returned
to Scotland and buried at Melrose
Abbey. Had their instructions
been carried out the hearts or
these two inveterate enemies
might possibly have reposed side
by side In the same sepulcher.
