After much heralding, the four-year
term for governor and state officials
has come into the legislature in the
form of the three Doyle bills.
In his three bills, Mr.. Doyle pro-
vides four-year term for governor
and the state officials, to take effect
light away. He further provides that
the offices of superintendent Of pub
lie instruction, state auditor, attorney
general, insurance commissioner and
two railroad commiksio shall not
become four year jobs until after
1916. This will give half the officials
the opportunity Of serving with the
other half only two years. so that a
complete set will not be elected to
serve the whole four years together.
All these officials are prohibited
from sucoeeding themselves.

History Of Masonry.

1t is impossible, Of course, to fix
exactly a day and year and say 1t was
the birthday of Masonry; 1t is just as
impossible to bark back to day and
year and say that on that day the
Catholic church came into existence.
History has left no such definite rec
ords. Students OF these questions
have, perforce, been content for the
most part with legend as to the orr
gin of institutions.
While it is a recognized truth that
the rites and symbols OF the Masonic
order are of great antiquity, It appears
that the society as 1t is now consti-
tuted is little If any more than two
centuries old. For this we have
so good authority as the recognized
historians and students of Masonry.
The fables which carry this fra
ternity back to the time of the build
ing of King Solomon's temple, or to
the era of Isis and Osiris In Egypt,
or TO the day of the deluge, may be
dismissed as without the vaguest
foundation. On this point Masonic
historians may be said to be unit.
They agree that Masonry was a grad
ual growth, and could not have sprung
into existence as an organization in
a single day.

"a WIRE TRUST
MEMBERS INDICTED
FRANK JAY GOULD, SATTERLEE
AND OTHER FlNANclERS
ON THE LIST.
NINE INDICTMENTS AFFECT
THiRTY-FivE FIRMS.
Government Charges Restraint OF
Trade in Violation of the Sher-
man Antitrust Law BY
Agreement With One
Another.

Nine indictments charging 80 firms
with restraint of trade in violation OF
the Sherman antitrust law were re.
against as many associations and 81
individuals, comprising the so-called
wire trust" affiliated with the steel
industry.
Prominent among the defendants
are Frank Jay Gould, OF New York,
president of the Old Dominion Iron
q Nail Works Co.; Herbert l.. Sat.
terlee, son-in-law of j. Pierpont
Morgan, and William p Palmer, pres.
ident of the American Steel q Wire
Co., subsidiary OF the U. 5. Steel Cor
poration.
What this suit charges" said Dis
trict Attorney Wise, lis a trade
agreement in restraint of trade" The
government does not seek TO establish
a physical or fiscal merger of the
properties or interests indicted, but
a series of pools to maintain prices
and apportion territory, in elimination
of competition, and so in violation
of the Sherman act.
Thus the suit appears as a further
earnest of the governments deter
mination to deal vigorously with re-
strictive trade agreements. There is
no indication, however, that evidence
gathered by the bureau Of corpora
tions in it's investigation of the Steel
corporation played any part in the
indictments. Only two subsidiary
companies of the u S. Steel corpor-
alton are mentioned, the American
Steel & Wire Co. and the Trenton
Iron Co.
The general charges in all the In
dictments are the same, allowing for
the difference in the business in
which the defendants were engaged,
1t is set forth that the various asso'
Citations organized under their associ'
alton names and each elected a super
visor, and adopted rules and regula'
tions.

IHE GOAL LANDS ARE
WORTH MILLIONS
THE CUNNINGHAM COAL CLAIMS
ARE DECLARED ILLEGAL
AND THROWN OUT.
THEeE CLAIMS WE'RE FOUGHT
ny PiNCHOT AND CLAWS.
After a Two Years Fight Causing
Dismlssals from the Depart
men tina Claims Fail.

The Cunningham coal claims, Cor
fighting which Clifford Pinchot and
Louis r. CLAWS were dismissed from
the government service, were on Mon
day thrown out as illegal by the de-
partment Of the interior This ends
one phase of the scheme by which,
it Is alleged, the Morgan-Guggenheim
interests sought TO dominate the
vast commercial interests of Alaska,
and control one of the richest coal
fields in the world.
Walter L. Fisher, secretary OF the
interior, having approved the depart
ment's decision, as handed down by
Fred bennett, commissioner OF tile
land office, the last door is believed
to have been closed to the Cunning
ham claimants. Their attorneys have
threatened an appeal to the United
States supreme court, but such an
appeal can be based only on some
point of law involved, and not on the
findings of fact as announced by the
department
The Cunningham claims have been
in the public eye constantly for more
than two years past. They brought
about the Ballinger-Pinchot investi-
CATION by congress. The dismissal
from the public service of Chief For
ester Clifford Pinchot, Louis r. Gla-
Wis, a chief of field division in the
land office, and several minor officials
was on charges of INSTRUMENTATION in
cident to their attacks on former Sec
rotary Ballinger, whom they charged
with being too favorably disposed
toward the claims
In announcing the decision OF the
department Secretary Fisher, who
succeeded Mr.. Ballinger in Marcn
last, declared that new coal land
laws are needed in Alaska If that
territory is to be developed properly.
In a statement the secretary said:
The thirty-three claims involved
amounted 10 an aggregate area t
$3.50 acres. The value of the land
has been estimated high in the mil
lions. The coal embraced in the
claims is said TO be among the finest
in the world

The Decay Of Manners.

Writing in Harper's Weekly H. B.
Marriott Watson descants upon the
decline of manners in England and
America. ION the whole, 1T is impos-
sible TO deny better manners to the
American" he writes. The esti.
quette of the sexes is certainly loos-
er In America. Our grandmothers
would be shocked to see what breach
es have been made in the necessary
Notifications between the sexes. Once
upon a time young manhood stood
bareheaded in the rain or bowed to
the waist when 1t encountered young
womanhood; now a nod Is as good as
wink or a mere perfunctory clutch
at the hat. 1t Is all a matter of con-
vention, Of course. but do you like
it?"
