Guessing as to Wilson.

Whether Secretary Wilson will escape
censure cannot be foreseen, many per-
sors in touch with matters expressing the
belief that Mr.. Wilson will be placed in
such a position that he will feel called
upon TO resign Mr.. Wilson has been
through many resignation rumors and
has survived them all. In the Pinchot-
Garfield trouble he survived many pre-
dictions of presidential displeasure and
depa rture from the cabinet.
The President stood by him then, but has
recently shown some signs of impatience
that conditions in the Department OF
Agriculture were such as TO again force
him TO take part to settle matters that
other cabinet officers believe should never
have gone to him.
The President is said to recognize that
Mr. Wilson has many bureaus under him
handling matters vitally affecting the in
terests of the public, and that it would
take a man of unusual power to be able
TO supervise personally all of them and
keen track of the personal .jealousies and
departmental conditions arising almost
every day. Mr.. Wilson. he admits, is
compelled to look to certain men in whom
he has confidence. If these men fail to
pursue a sensible course in their admin
istration of the business turned over to
them, Mr.. Wilson is of course, held re-
sponsible by the White House.

Had His Decision Ready.

When DIR. Wiley had submitted his de-
fense the President began reading all the
papers again. Between action upon other
matters the President got ready to an
nounce his decision, which he had prepar-
ed with care. Within few hours of the
time he would have made the decision

The President. always desirous of fur
ther light before arriving at final con-
tically completed. and hasn't bothered
with ii since. He will await the taking
of testimony by the House committee,
and when he is through with his tariff
fight with Congress and has some spare
time he will take up this testimony. go
through it as carefully as he did when
he was passing upon a case on the bench.
tain features from Secretary Wilson,
and then render his decision. Just what
that will be the President hasn't the
slightest idea, although his first decision,
which nearly reached the public, is un-
derstood to have reprmanded DR.. Wiley,
but suggested that his services had been
so valuable he ought TO stay with the
government.
The facts being brought out now show
a state of affairs in the Department OF
Agriculture that by no means pleases the
President. He begins to see clearly that
there have been pickering, fighting cliques
and departmental politics for years. There
will be no surprise should he eventually
order a general cleaning out OF the es-
tabishment, dismissing a number of those
prominent in the squabble.

JUSTICE AT THE ALLEYS END.

A CCORD1NG to the orators, justice issues "from the bosom OF
the Almighty" The fact is that in Long Island it issues
q = from Joseph Cassidy and John II. McCooey, holding company
for Tammany's Queens and Brooklyn assets. This fact is set forth in
the information laid before the court by prosecuting officers reciting
that Cassidy and McCooey named the delegates to the judiciary CON-
vention in the Second District and could, therefore, cause the dele
gates to vote for such persons as they might see it," The view is
confirmed by the testimony Of Surrogate Noble Of Queens, whom
Wilett defeated.
According to Mr.. Noble, he chad always assumed he would be
the candidate. He had never asked Cassidy, but "Cassidy's action and
his friendship and the way he received my services to the Democratic
party indicated that l would be the candidate" He continued
"Those things ire not put into so many words. ] was a friend Of
his, and had been for a long time. / had always carried out his
wishes-that is, to a certain extent. l would try to carry the pi-
mares, and to carry elections in my districts, you know" When he
saw Cassidy after the latters talk with McCoocy, he testifies, che
didn't tell me anything in so many words, but understood it had
been settled" Mr.. Noble assented when the examiner suggested:
"When Cassidy lets you know things he doesn't tell them in so many
words; you sense them?"
Here is picture of the route men travel to a judgeship. Waive
the charge that the man actually named paid moneys charge he
denies-and consider what a defeated candidate, himself a judicial
officer, swears he paid himself. He cultivated the Friendship" Of

THAT WATER TRAFFIC MAY REVIVE.

~ is commerce dwindling on our internal waterways?
w Why do Germanys rivers and canals carry tons where ours
carry pounds? Senator Burton of Ohio has told why, and
most Of the reasons can be summed up in one word-terminals.
Where we have used steamboats, and loaded them by hand labor, Eu-
rope has used barges and loaded them by machine. Europe has mod.
ern terminal facilites-docks and warehouses, with cranes and all
conveniences for handling freight.
There is I. proposition before voters here to give th. State
equal facilihes-Proposhion Number One. It would render available
the first ambitious attempt in this country to use great barges in.
stead Of steamboats-the barge canal. The plan is to authorize the
State to issue bonds in amount not to exceed $19,sO0OOO in order
20 provide terminals These will do for the canal what freight sta.
tons, warehouses and sdings do for rairoads-supersede the age OF
hand labor with the age Of machine labor.
With Proposition Number One voters should also favor the Con-
stitutional Amendment designated as Number Six. The latter will
prevent the State from ever alternating the new terminals to the
railroads and will checkmate that unfair railroad competition which
has paralyzed most Of our water routes.

TT Is hazardous to hunt deer in districts where they have been

thrice, and each time the other man ran away The county sheriff
