ROOSEVELT NEARLY THREE TO ONE.

m "FEELER" of Republican sentiment within the range of
M The Stars circulation, put forth by The Star for two days,
shows a majority of 2S42 for Roosevelt over Taft in a total
poll of 6,43S. The total Republican vote in New Jersey in the last
presidential election was 265,29S. In The Star test vote Roose-
welt gets more than 10 per cen. and Taft less than 30 per cent.
Applying these percentages to the Republican vote in 1908 we find
that it indicates for Roosevelt a majority of 10000 in the State.
1t may be said that the form of the ballot permitted Democrats as
well as Republicans to vote. If a Democrat had any motive to EN-
gage in the ballot he would naturally desire to swell the Taft vote,
inasmuch as he prefers to see the Republican party nominate the
weaker candidate. But the chances of a few Democratic ballots
being sent in do not affect the result, since if there was no motive
they would be about equally divided. The poll taken corresponds
with all other straw votes taken throughout the country this year.

LIKE A TALE FROM RUSSIA.

MN Ut of the horrors of the Lawrence strike comes some good
w 1t has served to open the eyes of the whole country to
the conditions of industrial slavery in some of our textile
manufacturing centres and to the autOcratc way in which the
police power is apt to defy the commonest rights of citizenship in
the supposed attempt to suppress disorder. The outrages wrought
upon women and little children, as related by witnesses before a
congressional committee, are shocking. The recital is like a tale
from Russia instead of from the neighborhood of Boston, the
boasted centre of American refinement and civic virtue. Is the
once Wanted New England conscience extinct?

sTEPNER DEALING WITH FEMALE MoB0cRACY

ONDON magistrates propose to increase the severity of sen
LIZ fences for the termagants arrested for Wanton destruction
of property. They have added hard labor to prfson sen
fences. and, as most of the female rioters are unaccustomed to the
kind of labor that is imposed in prisons. the penalty vii! not be to
their tastes. But the act of planning to create public disorder. TO
attack the police and destroy public and private property has more
serious criminal aspects than the magistrates have vel considered,
and if the acts of violence persist the perpetrators will be treated
on an equality with male criminals and be similarly punished.
The sufragette demonstrations in London. are among The worst
examples of attempted mob rule in Englands history. We have
to go back to Jack Cade for a parallel. And What is their logic?
Surely not that these women are fit to be introduced into the
electorate.

VAGUENEss OF THE ,sHERMAN LAW.

TT UDGE GRAY, of the United States Circuit Court points out
cI the difficult task that the courts find in enforcing the Sher
man act against the trusts. The statute consists of but a few
lines and, as Judge Gray says. declares a policy, but does not.
make a specific regulation n define a crime And so in each trust
prosecution the court must administer the law as it Hnds il. as
best it can, to carry out the legislative intent" The need is indi
Gated for more specific and drastic legislation by Congress so
that the. business of the country will be compelled to accommo
date itself to it." But why doesn't Congress amend the act in the
way suggested by the Delaware jurst?

LEVEE BOARD HELD
 CONFERENCE FRIDAY

Little Rock, April Mem bers of the Linwood and Auburn Levee Boards held a conference Friday with the Penitentiary Board with regard to the flood situation at the state farm and below. There is threatened break in the leyee endangerinp the lives and property of ten thousand people in several coun- ties, and 100 miles of railroad track The caving bank of the Arkansas river has approached within 120 feet of the present levee, having lost 60 feet during the recent rise. It is feared that the June rise will take out the rest of the bank, when the levee would be sure to go.
 Upon the advice of Engineer Pierce, the Levee Board request ed permission to build a new loop across the state farm, back of the present levee, cutting off about 100 acres of the farm, in cluding all the buildings except the cotton gin The state has al ready lost over 100 acres of till able land washed into the river. There is a frontage of about 2500 feet exposed to the caving bank.
 Gov. Donaghey wired the Sec retary of War to send engineers immediately to make an investi- gation and recommend action, and the governor was empower ed to represent the board.
 The governors of the southern states were in telegraphic com munication Friday, and when it was found that they could not hold the contemplated confer ence at Helena or Memphis, it was agreed that each should take up the question with his Con greSsional delegation and urge the appropriation of enough money with which to build the levees along the Mississippi. Unless this is done, the rebuild ing will occasion great distress as the people are already heavily taxed to pay for what the flood has washed away and many are practically ruined.
 The governor added Harry Keller of Fort Smith, now at Helena, to the committee that i s to go to Washington for a con- ference Monday with the Con greSsional committees.
 Charles l.. Magnee, secretary of the Red Cross, has notified Gov. Donaghey by wire that that organization has placed S1,OOO at the disposal of Major Miller, U. $. A., for the employment of physicians to care for all flood refugees.

was 10 have been taken on the trip
according to original plans but this
idea was abandoned at the request of
the Douglas Lodge who had secured
the services of the Ninth Cavalry
band and as the Douglas home is not
large there was not accommodation for
both bands. The number from Bisbce
was kept down also by the fact that
many who would otherwise have been
included had left yesterday in automo-
biles to run over to Phoenix and the
Fair. Despite this the crowd was a
large one and the typical Elk spirit
was very much in evidence. Il was
the wee sma' hours of this morning
before the special train came putting
back up the grade into Bisbee bearing
the happy and wearied excursionists.

Telling the Ace Of a Horse.

The age of a horse may be judged
by the appearance of the teeth be-
cause on the upper surface of the
incisors a hollow is to be seen in the
young tooth, which, not extending
through the whole substance, natu-
rally wears out with the wear of the
tooth, and as a considerable degree
Of regularity occurs in the wearing
away in all horses. it has been adopt
ed as a general criterion of age.
