PittsburG. Jan. 9.-The hackers OF

other concerns. w. T. MCCULLOUGH is
a wealthy e estate man and former
politician and member of the legis-
laturc. Secretary w. H. Locke OF the
Pittsburg baseball club stated today:
Il have heard too many winter
leagues that never materialized in the
this n 1t takes a lot of money, a
lot of work, and a lot of players to
form a new major league. Even il
the club proposed for Pittsburg and
those for other cities have secured
new parks. as they claim, which state
ment has yet to be proved. where are
the players to come from?
And Of course building a new park
here will be an easy matter. When.
the Pittsburg club built Forbes field
it started work on January ! and
broke all records by finishing the plant
June 90. Yet this new league says 1t
will have a park here ready for OPEN

been begun. tarting new leagues is
very easy. in the winter time: but they
never get my farther than the start"

NEVER ENTIRELY WIPED OUT
The Bachelor Survives In Great Num-
bers, Despite Attacks Of Most
SkiIlful Foes.

Bachelors, like the poor, we have
always with us. They never become
extinct. The rising army each year Ia
attacked by an opposing army Of fe-
males, and each individual is, Of
course, defeated and led away to the
slaughter; yet, in spite of this fact,
the bachelor still persists.
Many things conspire to keep him
going; for one, there are the cities.
Bachelors who live In cities learn to
be very comfortable. They can ar
range their home decorations to suit
themselves, and can at any time bring
home a friend to dinner without any
criticism from the management.
Bachelors who live In cities can also
eat and drink what they please with
out interference, and so far as all the
material comforts are concerned, they
can regulate their lives to suit them
selves.
On the other hand, the thing that
depletes the ranks of the bachelors
more than anything else is lonesome
ness. Many bachelors are willing to
put UP with almost any kind of a hard
life so long as they can get someone
to share it with. Ease and luxury
are, after all, among the minor con.
Germs; after a bachelor has expert
enced them for a sufficient length OF
time he is willing to get married, II
only to have someone to quarrel with.
Man is always looking for trouble

RISING Moral Standards.

In the stimulating little volume,
1.-THE Moral and Religious Challenge
of Our Times" President H. G. King
Of Oberlin college discusses az one
of the significant national changes,
"the rapidly rising moral standards
Of the United States in business, In.
dustrial and political life"
There can be no doubt, he says, that
the business world now repudiates
methods that would have been accept
ed as a matter of course twenty-five
years ago, and that in politics there
is "a growing responsibility to the
whole people" He continues: :
THE significant element In the re
volt against 'Cannonism' lies just here
1t is the Reputation Of the old theory
that legislation is to be the outcome
Of a compromise of various corporate
or local interests, instead of being de
termined by a clear view of the inter
ests Of the people as q whole"
That is why the people revoltet
against the n in which the
Payne-Aldrich tariff act vas framed
and 1t explains the uprising which has
so bewildered the old school Of poll
ticians who could see nothing out o.
the way in legislating for the specia
interests.

which surround the two little Midway
Islands. These islands are 3,60S miles
from San Francisco and 4,237 miles
from the Philippines, each consisting
OF a strip Of land of only a few acres
in area, one being known as Sand Is-
land, or Western Island, and the other
Eastern Island, the cable station be-
ing located on the former.
In laying a trans-oceanic cable,
every possible precaution is taken to
keep the line free from trouble" and
to this end the right Of way, II we
might apply such q term to the bot
tom Of the sea, must contain no ele-
ments which will cause undue de-
terioration Of the cable. In this in
stance, an unforeseen factor has
arisen in the shape of a coral reef.
The motion of the water swaying the
great cable to and fro over the rough
coral surface chafed the insulation
and wires sufficiently to cause the
break, the cost Of repairing which will
amount to approximately 100000
The population Of Sand Island, the
home of the cable station, consists Of
20 persons, namely, the superintendent
of the cable company and his wife,
one chief operator and his wife, a
physician, cable operators and a few
laborers, with two cows, two donkeys,
and some poultry. There is no gov
ernor, no mayor; not even a con-
stable. 1t is a law-abiding community
and has no need of any machinery to
enforce the law. At one time the
United States had a few troops there,
but they were withdrawn in the in
terest Of economy, since their pres
ence served no practical purpose.
Before the coming of the cable sta
ton, the island was totally uninhab-
tied. AS the result Of turning loose
two canary birds quite some time ago,
the island now has a wild feathered
family OF over five hundred songsters.

ImpracticabiIity.

This thing of doing in Rome as the
Romans do Is not always the best
plan, says the Popular Magazine. II
you don't believe it Miss Jane Adams,
the famous sociological worker of Chi
cago, will tell you a story to prove it.
Miss Adams knew a wealthy wom-
an who delighted in doing works Of
charity, such as sending missionaries
to foreign fields, and on n occasion
she put up the money to send a mis-
sionary to the Caroline islands. Soon
after his arrival on the scene of his
activities the religious man sent his
benefactress a photograph of himself
and his wife.
Whereupon the rich woman wrote
the mar Of God a letter, suggesting
that his wife, In order to win the con-
fdence Of the natives, should throw
away her fine clothes and wear the
costume of the islands. Two months
later she received this answer:
Enclosed is the complete costume
worn by native women. My wife
awaits further word from you before
adopting it."
The native dress consisted of q
piece Of woven straw, two inches wide
and eight inches long.

BACK. TO THE RIGHT CHANNEL
Privilege Of the Democratic Party Is
to Restore a Safe and Sane
Government.

The beginning of the Roosevelt le-
gend is interesting. Back in the
eighties an American magazine pub
lished a series of articles on ranch life
and the hunting trail, illustrated by
the pencil of the late Fred Remington
and signed by a name famous in the
history both Of New York politics
and western ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Later 1t was reported that a new Dan
lei had come to judgment in the pc.
lice department of New York. Then
came the Spanish-American war and
the famous regiment recruited from
Fifth avenue and Dead Mans Gulch.
The assassination of Mckinley oc-
Cured at q strategic moment, when
American politics was about to take a
new turn and crystalline about either
an idea or q person. Roosevelt's dra-
matte entrance into the White House
turned the scale. An era of personal
government began. There is some
thing wrong with the succession, how
ever. Taft is to Roosevelt what Ma
zarin was to Richelieu. The founder
Of the dynasty has decided to govern
once more. The viceroy business Is
played out. Meanwhile the Democratic
party, through men like Clark, Under
wood, Baldwin, Wilson, Harmon and
others, has ~redirected the attention OF
the country to the power of ideas in
politics. 1t is our guess that personal
government is doomed and that soon
the Roosevelts and Cannons will be
numbered among the popular idols
which have lost their sanctity.-St'

Especially in the campaign now on,

The cost of the Roosevelt campaign
In New York county was Owe $59, 900,

lost out at that. A short time ago
the total cost Of his campaign thus far
was estimated at 100000,

dacy this money is being spent to per-
NIT the people to express their over

All right. Let him spend as much
as he likes, If he spends 1t legitimate
ly. But who is putting up?
Mr.. Roosevelt has ne million to
spend on his campaign, not even the
$780, 900 which. according to legal rec
ord, he dumped into New York county
alone. Then who is putting up?
Is it Perkins, Munsey or McCor-
mick, or some other Of his trust
friends who are boosting the Roosevelt
campaign? Or are the plain people
parting with their pennies to enjoy
the salvation of another Roosevelt ad-
m~inistration?
The Taft managers, undoubtedly,
are spending money, too. Money has
always been spent in these campaigns.
The people have a right to know where
the Taft money comes from.

have yet to be charged with spending
money like drunken sailors" as were
the agents of the colonel in Indianapo-

It may be recalled at this time that
George W. Perkins in 1904 contributed
$4,000 to the Roosevelt campaign In
behalf Of the New York Life Insur-
ance company. He can't do that now,
but what he is giving and how he is
giving it should be known to the citi-
