MEMBERSHIP
IN CONGRESS

In equipment for debate, the Repub-
licans of the House are now outclass-
ed. They lack the clear headed Taw-
ney, the polished Boutell, the eloquent
Lands, the convincing Overstreet, and
the rough-and- tumble Grosvenor
greatest partisan champion Of them
all. Mann, well qualified, and the
redoubtable Uncle Joe remain to fight
the party's battles on the floor, but
they have found a dozen combatants
equal to any fray.
The Senate, still Republican by a
feeble, uncertain majority, has not
given the Democrats Of that body
equal opportunity for development.
Their talents for legislation and abil-
ity for constructive work, if they pos
sess any, are obscured by the coalition
with the Republican Progressives,
which has put LaFollette, Borah and
Cummins into the limelight. OF the
new Democratic Senators, Kern of IN
diana, Bryan's running mate in the
last national campaign, has given ev-
idence of capacity and is counted up
on to become a real factor, after ex-
perience at Washington.
In the matter of discipline, the Dem
ocratic majority of the House has
challenged admiration. 1t has not
been equalled in many years. Bailey
and Williams failed as leaders of the
minority; Clark had better success
and was rewarded by election to the
Speakership. Uunderwoods leader
ship of the Democratic majority has
been markedly successful and his col

Der are quite generous in their recog-

HAMMOND'S YACHT ARRIVES.
Elderly Typewriter Man Denies Plan
to Cruise Around World.

New Haven, Aug. 5.-A F. Ham
mond, the New York millionaire
typewriter man, arrived in the har-
Dor on his handsome yacht, the
Lounger H., yesterday forenoon and
the yacht anchored quite near the
Shoreham pier. 1t was simply a CO.
incidence that Mr.. Hammond arrived
with the New York Yacht club fleet,
and that he leaves today at his pleas
ure and goes to New London, which
is also the direct itinerary of the New
York Yacht clubs cruise.
Mr.. Hammond's feeble condition
did not permit his leaving the yacht,
and he was able to talk but few
moments with an interviewer.
Mr.. Hammond stated that he had
no intention of sailing around the
world, but was to go wherever fancy
called him. He further stated that,
while he was very hopeful Of living
for some years he had not made any
statements to the effect that he ex-
pected to live to be 100 years old. He
is now 70 years Of age.

Only Real Battle Sees Stotin Beat
Ryder For Sheriff.

The annual caucus in Woodmont
at which nominees for the various
borough offices are chosen, was held
there last night A fair number OF
citizens assembled at the engine house
and selected William Kennedy to pre-
side over their proceedings. The eau
Gus was practically unanimous in its
choice of candidates.
There was little opposition to those
named with one exception, the sher-

battle and the spirit of heated con-

SCHWAB AND HIS LOSSES
Has Dropped $4,000, 900 or $4,000,

adams in Boston News Rureau.)
IF Charlie Schwab keeps his health
and sticks to steel he will make $780,
600 900 before he dies" / heard one
of the ablest/ business men in the
country make this statement at the
Waldorf the other day with the utmost
seriousness. There are two Ifs" in
the case and they are Of about equal
importance. To make good this
prophecy Schwab must steer clear Of
outside ventures. He must also re-
tain good health. That Charles M.
Schwab is the ablest steel maker in
America admits of no question. He
is re regarded on both sides of the
Atlantic. Andrew Carnegie accords
him that distinction. We have all
read a good deal about the great iron
masters young men. the ones who
grew up with the Carnegie Steel COM
pany to become while still young high
officials of the greatest industrial cor
poration in the world-the United
states Steel corporation. Without
doubt Carnegie helped Schwab, liked
him and pushed him to the front. But
on the other hand Schwab was Of
enormous value to Carnegie. Though
the fact is not generally known, 1
have no hesitancy in saying that the
genius of Schwab contributed in one
way or another at least $50, 900, 900 to
the fortune of half a billion or so Of
his old employer. Nor have I the
slightest doubt that Schwab, though
still some years this side of so, would
to-day be an extremely rich man, ev-
en- as wealth is figured in these times,
had he always limited his business eff
forts to iron and Steel
Let the shoemaker stick to his last.
One of the greatest merchants that
ever lived reached out from oil, the
thing he knew all about, to copper and
the building of railroads, the things
he knew nothing about and failed Of
success. That was the late Henry
H Rogers. Charles M. Schwab, the
smartest steel man in the world,
branched out from the trade he was
master of to a field he was a student
in-shipbuilding. He lost millions, as
is now history. in the collapse of the
shipbuilding company. He went into
mines and sank millions. What did
he know about shipbuilding? What
did he know about mining? His loss
es in these ventures, I understand,
have made difference of 100000, 900
to $40, 600 900 in his fortune.
But Charles NJ. Schwab is now re-
trieving. He believes, as some very
good judges believe that in his Bethle-
hem Steel company he has a bonan-
"a He thinks and his friends think
that in Bethlehem, Pa, he has laid the
foundations for one of the greatest in
dustrial successes, proportionately
speaking. that has been achieved in
years. For the future the abilities
of Schwab, his inventions and new
methods of manufacture, will be de-
voted to the steel concern of which
he is president. The latter has no
entangling alliances. 1t is an inde-
pendent proposition. It has nothing
to fear from the Sherman law.

Niagara Falls, N. Y.
August 1, 1911.
My Dear Major Boudren:
Your esteemed favor Of the 1st in
slant is before me. 1t gratif1es me
to be able to report that great pro-
gress has been made by the oppon-
ents of vaccination in Buffalo, N. Y.
There have been three enthusiastic
characterization meetings in the city
hall of Buffalo, N. Y, before the al
dermanic committee on ordinances.
At every meeting the anti-vac cina-
tionists scored victories. Mr. Porter
F. Cape was present and spoke at
length at two of the hearings. There
is tremendous public sentiment
against vaccination in the Bison City,
as Buffalo is called.
A powerful characterization society
has been organized. Many of Buff
falo's leading business men, lawyers
doctors, clergymen have joined the So
ciety. Two of the honorary presi-
dents of the society are millionaires
and express a willingness to contrib
ute literally of their funds to drive
the child-murder out of Buffalo. I
feel confident that vaccination in Buff
falo has met it's Waterloo, as the in
human outrage has been shown up to
the public sufficiently to ensure its
collapse in the near future.
The characterization society of Buff
falo has for its president a very able
energetic and courageous lady, Mrs
Helen Horton, principal Of the Horton
School Of Physical Culture. The Sec
rotary of the society is lady teach
er in the public schools of Buffalo
Miss Julia D. Pratt of 230 Allen St
If you could send them a letter OF
commentator to be printed in the, an
ti-vaccination magazine which the So
ciety expects to publish at regular in
tervals, they would appreciate il
keenly
Everything looks good for the down
fall Of the blood poisoning atrocity in
Buffalo. Wishing you success in
your noble and valiant fight against
this curse Of childhood, am
Yours in the fight for freedom from
medical tyranny and compulsory dis
ease,
