Tribute to a Man Who Sacrificed Self
 Interest to Duty.

F,rom the New York Sun of February
 This striking portrait in words we put for a certain reason without quo tation marks:
 "Taft. the most brilliant graduate of his year at Yale, the youngest man upon whom Yale ever conferred a de- gree of doctor of laws; man who, having won high position at the bar and then served at solicitor general at Washington. was appointed to the United States bench.
 He was then asked to sacrifice him. self, to give up his position in order to go to the other side of the world to take up an infinitely dangerous problem and do his best to solve it. He has done his best He came back here the other day. The man has al- ways had the honorable ambition to get upon the supreme court bench, and when he was back here a few months ago, and there was a question of va cancy arising, 1 said to him
 Governor, l think l ought to tell you that If a vacancy comes in the supreme court (which I knew would put him for life in a position which he would especially like to have) I do not see how l could possibly give it to you. for I need you where you arc
 He said to me:
 Mir President, it has always been my ambition to be in the supreme court, but if you should offer me { tustceship now and at the same time congress should take away entirely my salary as governor, l should go straight back to the Philippines, nev- ertheless; for those people need me and expect me back. and believe will not desert them
 He has gone back; gone back as a strong friend among weaker friends to help that people upward along the difficult path of elf-government. He has gone to do his part-and a grea, part-in making the American name symbol of honor and good faith in the Philippine Islands; to govern with l justice and with that firmness. that ab- sence of weakness which Is only an other side of justice. He has gone | back to do all that, because ir is his duty as he sees it.
 We are to be congratulated we Americans. that we have fellow Am erican like Taft"

Bull Moose Reasts.

One of the features of the coming campaign will be unique and striking to degree that will make the Tip pecanoe and Tyler campaign, with it's hard cider, tame in comparison. From one end of the land to the other the eat em-up Republicans are planning bull moose roasts, and where the gen. uine article cannot be obtained any kind of bull meat will do instead. So that as the campfires blaze fiercely the bull moose fires will blaze even more brightly, and the Colonel on his rounds will be met with the defiant cry of Bull mOose-eat 'em up."
 The bull moose roast idea seems to have been incubated along the clam bake coast of Long Island. At any rate it has taken a firm grip, and bull moose roasts will symbolize the treat ment to be accorded the Bull MOoser by the Republicans of the land.
 The Republican orators and the Re- publican newspapers will not have the roasting of the bull moose to them selves. for everywhere will be seen the symbol of Republican success worn as badges and emblems-that is a bull moose on a brush fire. The novelty features of the campaign will be many, but the bull moose roasts and bull moose roast embiems will take the lead. The houn' dog that was kicked out of Baltimore in 8 defunct state will not be in 1t with the bull moose roasts.-Baltimore American.

formed him that a portion of the build- ing was on city property and must be removed. The owner said he had no objection but insisted that the work be done at the expense of the city. To this the mayor assumed his light ing attitude and in his characteristic ably forcible way informed the gentle man from New York that if the build ing was not removed within a speci- fled time, that the part of the build ing that encroached would be cut away and that the owner would be the loser. This brought the New Yorker to terms and he finally agreed to pay the greater part of the expense of removal. Then the mayer went dt- rect to a contractor and made con- tract for the removal of the building forthwith. This is only one of the many little matters that the mayor straightens out almost daily, and 1t does not seem to interfere in the least with his other multitudioous matters that he has in the works. And as busy as he is, he is not so busy but he can give time to talk over public affairs with all who have grievances or suggestions. Mayor Mahan is surely one big man, too big to have his gen eral usefulness confined to the limits of New London.
