escaped him. He has watched all the
corners. Perfectly familiar with parlia-
mentary tactics. he has employed all his
knowledge in all the battles fought. A
ready and resourceful debater, he has
found and attacked the weak places OF
the other side. and strengthened the al
ready strong places of his own.
Another democratic House, 1t Is con-
ceded will mean the continuation OF Mr..
Clark in the chair and Mr.. Underwood

They have done SO we'll that q second
term for each will follow.
We may calculate also on a second
term for Mr.. Mann as minority leader.
He has done admirably, and should be
even more effective under the conditions
now in prospect. With the democrats in
full control of the government and
pledged to much important legislation.
the minority leader of the House should
find many opportunities to display his
talents and serve his party.
Mr.. Mann knows the tariff subject as
well as any member of the present House.
He participated in the debates on the
Payne bill when that measure was pass
ing through the Sixty-frst House. and ne
led the minority in the debates last year
and this on the measures which hnally
failed for the revision OF certain
schedules of the Payne law. He Will be
perfectly at home. therefore. In leading

The Two Missing Gunmen.

New York's missing men are many in
number. but just now two of them are
in national evidence-two precious gentle
men who are intimately known now
throughout the country as "Gyp the
Blood and Lefty Louie" They are
everywhere. They are reported from the
far west. from Pennsylvania. from Eu-
rope. from the heart OF the big city itself.
These are bad times for persons without
credentials to go wandering about the
states, for there are rewards out for
these two Gothamites. and the country
constables are mighty spry to spot sus-
picious characters. Probably before the
much-wanted Rosenthal suspects have
been taken and conclusively identified
several practical jokers will have had a
lot OF fun with the rural officers. and
some may even get free rides to New
York. Just now the authorities of
Manhattan are taking no chances oi
bringing In takers. but are sending men
out to look over all the finds of the con-
stables and sheriffs and amateur detec-
tives This will tend to discourage false
impersonation to save car fare.

Roosevelt, Archbold and Hearst.

Mr.. Roosevelt's impatience to testify un-
der oath as to his attitude toward Stand
ard Oil money in the campaign of 1904 is
all we'll enough. but in the letter he is
preparing he can make his case plain.
And his letter will command as much at
tention as his sworn statement would.
Let him not consider space. The public
will read all he has to say, either for
himself or against others. No subject to-
day is more certain Of newspaper display
Did the Senate committee let Mr.. Arch
bold off mighty light? Not when its
examination of other witnesses is con-
sidered. At no time has the severe cross
examiner appeared in the investigation.
Mr.. Mack, Mr.. Cortelyou and Mr.. Bel
mont all ambled along pleasantly with
their stories, without any nagging when
their memories failed. Certainly no men
ever had more agreeable time on the
witness stand. and few have left less i'm
portant information with their inQuisitors.
Mr.. Archbold does not appear to have
been favored. On the contrary, some of
the questions put to him were searching;
and his memory was, upon the whole. in
fair working order. In that particular he
showed to advantage by comparison with
those who had preceded him in the wit
ness chair. He was not pumped out, but
the committee is not through with him.
And now comes William Randolph
Hearst with a suggestion which both COM
mittee and witnesses should take into ac-
count Mr.. Hearst is abroad. but in
touch with his countrymen by cable. and
greatly interested in this whole Standard
Oil business He employs the adjuration
Of ho ~ wants aVprvhOdV
in interest to tell the truth, the whole
truth, and nothing but the truth. and as
serts that if his adjuration is disregarded
he will perform that Office himself.
Why not. anyhow? Why should not Mr..
Hearst come forward with his facts?
Why not upon his return home appear
before the Senate committee, produce his
documents. and give connected recital
of all he knows about the matter in hand
He has already contributed much of value
to the subject. and has. it is understood,
much in reserve.
Mr.. Hearst has been taking the public
| into his confidence through the medium of
one Of his monthly publications. AS the
time is short, he should change to his
| daily publications. and strike while the
iron is hot. How many letters remain un-
published? What do they contain? Who
wrote them? Who received them? What
| was accomplished by them? What legis-
lation, or executive action, If any, was
secured or defeated by them?
The New York editor is playing no
favorites. He charges that Standard Oil
influence has been exerted in both of the
old parties, and asserts that he can prove
| his allegation. Why not call Mr.. Hearst
before Mr.. Roosevelt testifies under oath,
or Mr. Archbold's examination is re-
sumed?

Higher Cost Of Tenting.
From the Philadelphia Press.

The high cost of having good time is
getting to be something serious, too.
Many people on their vacation this year
have discovered this by comparison with
the prices Of other years. Here is a
single but striking instance. Some New
England people have been accustomed
for many seasons to going into the woods
and camping. paying for the privilege of
locating their tents in some desirable
place. That privilege has cost them a
dollar a day until this year. when they
have been required to pay $lS week.
This Is a great rise in the cost of an
outing on SO modest scale, but the
owners of the property who exacted
this additional charge had probably been
suffering themselves from increased cost
of things and had to take it out Of
somebody. That is a good deal the way
all along the line; one thing sends
another up.

Party Names.

THE republican party Is in its death
throes. Its work is done. Its race Is run.
After the November elections 1t will dis
appear from our politics" Thus saith the
So o-called progressives. NONSENSE!
Followers of Mr. Roosevelt would have
us believe that in future the progressive
party will be the great challenger of the
democratic party for control of the gov
ernment The progressive party. they as
sert, has come to stay. The word repub-
lican in connection with party organiza-
ton will be heard no more. The word
progressive will take its place.
No. The name was adopted hurriedly
and in pinch. Rooseveltian would have
better described the new organization. but
the word was cumbersome and unmusical.
and. besides. its adoption would have con-
fessed to the one-man character of the
movement. SO the word progressive was
fixed upon.
But as a matter of fact, that word can
not be monopolixed by a set OF men for
political purposes. In this country prog
ress is impressed upon all parties. All
are forced to progress. There has been
progress in both the republican part.
and it's great rival. and good deal of i,
