Notwithstanding the strain Of the
week Of examinations just past, the
Hespertans gathered for another
meeting last evening. Not so many
were present as might be expected
but still goodly number appeared,
including those who were billed to
entertain. With Mr.. Gustafson in the
chair. and Mr.. Louden as critic, the
program was set in motion A dec
lamation by Roy Robertson was the
opening feature. The selection was
taken from Charles Summers works,
and was given in effective style. The
debate on the subject of shipsubsidy
next occupied the attention Of the So
ciety. Mr.. Hienng and Mr.. Matchek
sustained the policy, while Mr.. John
son contended on the other side. AL
though Mr.. Johnson was in the min
GRITTY on the argument, on the deci-
sion he was in the majority. A hui
morous reading by NJ. C. T. Robertson
closed the literary performance.
During the next three quarters of an
hour. the transaction of business was
the center Of attraction. Motions, re-
ports Of committees, and fiery speech
es on the business policy Of the or
ganization was the order Of the mo-
ment. The society then adjourned in
time to allow the downtown members
to walk home-the street car COM
pany having disregarded the time

WASHINGTON GOSSIP. :

There is no city in the United
States that has made steadier prog
ress than Columbus, Ohio, my own
home" said former Representative
John ]. Lentz.
From January l, 1901, to April 1,
1909, there were constructed in Col
umbus more than $4,000 buildings 7
do not know what the statistics Will
show In the last two years, but ven
ture that in proportion to other years
construction work in Columbus has
been more rapid than in previous
years. The city has grown in the last
half century from $1,000 to 1876, 1000 in
1910. The increase from 1900 is co.
900, which exceeds by 10000 the pop-
ulation in 1890. l cite these figures
just to show that an inland city can
make greater growth than other cities
considered to be more favorably To-
Gated. Columbus is proud Of the fact
that in the last decade she passed
Toledo in the populction race"
Mr.. Lentz declsred that he did not
want to be drawn into a discussion of
politics. lie believes that the time
may be opportune for the success of
new party.
1T occurs to me that there is az
good a prospect for the success of a
new party composed Of progressive
Republicans, progressive Democrats,
and other progressives as there was
in 1856, when the Republican party
was formed. Such party. under the
leadership Of capable leader, would
have no reason for not succeeding. u

YIELDED TO EDMUNDS.
CieveIand's Political Foe Won After
His Friends Had Failed,

Soon after Mr.. Cleveland entered the
White House in 1885 Vice President
Hendricks died at his home in Indian
apolis. and the president made ar
rangements to attend the funeral.
| Many of his social intlmates and all
his official advisers united in an effort
to dissuade him from making this
twenty hour journey. enlarging on the
manifold risks of rail travel at all
times and the special opportunity this
would offer some fanatic to assassinate
HIN But he remained immoyable un
til within few hours of the time set
for closing up his business he received
an unexpected call from Senator Ed
munds of Vermont.
Mr.. EGmundS was the leader Of the
Republican, side Of the senate and was
understood TO have in preparation sew
eral measures OF opposition to the an
nounced policies Of the new admins
| tration. But he was also and above all
else an American citizen and a patriot,
and his visit to his political foe was
mndc in that character In conYer-
| sntiOn OF less than half an hour, ID
which he drew the curtain over all ar
ferences and disrcgarded all empty
formalities Of intercourse. he Iald Oe-
fore the president in the clear terms
and logical order in which he knew so
we'll how to express himself the larger
aspects Of the situation.

Of representatives stood next IN line
to the vice president. and next to lrlm

tween the nation and administrative

IT was Mr.. Cleveland's duty to forego
every other consideration and invite
no chances of throwing upon the coun.
try they both loved strain such as 1t
had never been subjected to before.
The writer of these lines was seated
In the next room while this visit was
in progress, and he will never forget
the presidents expression of satisfac-
tion on coming out of his office after
the senator had gone. He gave orders
Mt once that all preparations for his
journey should be suspended and de-
clared that nothing that had occurred
since he entered the White House had
so touched him as the kind solicitude
shown by Mr.. Edmunds about his ex-
posing himself to any peril now. The
others who had reasoned with him on
the subject were men who were pre-
sumptively friendly and whose chief
anxiety seemed to be lest he should
suffer some injury to his Individual
person or fortunes. But here was a
man who, as far as politics was con-
cerned, was n hostile of hostiles, yet
who appealed to him in behalf of the
American people and their govern
ment.
THAT settled it," Mr.. Cleveland con-
cluded MS he turned to go back to bis

there can be no further question of
where my highest obligation lies."-
