A CAPTAIN OF PoLITENEss.

The Illinois Central railway has a
new inspector Of courtesy in the per
son OF Captain Charles l. Bent, a
graduate Of the United States Military
academy az West Point This is a
position that has been maintained on
the lines Of this railway for some time
II is a sort of adjunct TO a railway
which might on first thought seem to
be entirely unnecessary.
II is little unfortunate that the
work of this particular officer must be
confined to the employees OF the rail.
way. II is a pity that some patrons
cannot receive lessons in courtesy as
well as the officials OF the road. The
discourtesy Of fellow passengers is fire.
quently a more serious annoyance to
the traveller than the discourtesy of
the ordinary employe. Still under the
tutelage OF the new inspector, II may
be that the gentlemanly actions Of the
officers OF the Illinois Central will be
SO marked that they will be a whole
some lesson and a shining example &c
the patrons.

CAPITAL COMMENT

never did anything to really check the
trusts while he was in office, and that
he was on particularly friendly terms
with the steel trust La Toilette is
absolutely uncompromising. There is
none of the ''you-tickle'me-and-I'll-
tickle-you' element in his makeup. He
fights to the last ditch, always, and if
he loses he goes down with oolors
flying and with cry of defiance.
In the event of a tie, therefore, be-
tween Taft and Roosevelt, which poll
ticians regard as not unlikely, La Fol-
lette will not give in to either Of them
No body feels doubt about that. What
he will do is a subject of most in
teresting speculation right now in
both republican camps.
THE ROOSEVELT SHAM.
La Toilette says Roosevelt's progress
siveism is sham and a delusion, and
La Toilette ought to be able to define
prOgressiveism, since he has been in
the midst of il the greater part of his
life He has pointed out in his speeches
that while the colonel is shouting
about "the right of the people to rule, -
he has had nothing to say about fore,
( ing the trusts to cease paying divi.
dends on a capitalization of upwards
/ of 80 billion dollars, 20 per cent OF
which is water.
The trusts of this country don't
( care snap Of their finger about
/ threats to put them out of existence,
/ says La Toilette, until you begin to
/ get specific. AS long as the threats
are couched in general terms they are
Indifferent. But when you put your
finger on the sore spots, and say just
what you are going to do, and just
exactly where you are going to insert
the knife to cut out the rotten spots
they become uneasy. The trusts
chuckle to themselves every time
Roosevelt makes a speech"
La Toilette and his little band Of 81
will bear watching. They stand fol
principle and patriotism instead of par
tisanship.

The American Flag Association re-

anarchists in New York old Glory

Old General Dix once declared that
the man who insulted the American
flag should be shot on the spot.
So drastic an act is not necessary.
! Those who do not love the stars and

no considerable following. We can
afford to laugh at them and treat them
with contempt.
The American flag flies over the

A TALE OF TWO CITIES.

In a letter written by .. c. Sim
onds, noted civic expert Of Chicago.
appears this paragraph:
When the inhabitants OF a city
show that they appreciate its beauty
and that they are striving TO make
it more beautiful. people from other
places will be attracted and will come
10 the beautiful place TO develop
homes. Conversely, If a place is ugly
and unattractiye, people may remain
in it to make money, but when this
has been secured they will leave to
find more congenial surroundings"
Minneapolis has forged ahead of st.
Paul. principally because Minneapolis
has made itself attractive. and de
sirable place in which to live. ST.
Paul, in comparison with Minneapolis,
has for years shown up 10 a disad-
vantage. St Paul had the business,
but St Paul lacked the energy to
make itself attractive, and hence has
allowed its rival 10 forge ahead and
become the most important part Of the
Twin cities.
1t pays to be attractive, but it takes
work and energy.

THE TRIBUNE COMES OUT FOR
COOKE.

The Chicago Tribune, following the
example of those other republican
newspapers in Illinois, the Chicago
Record-Herald, the Springfield State
Journal, the Springfield News. the
Peoria Herald-Transcript the
Quincy Wing and the Aledo
Times-Record, came out this morning
strongly for the reelection of Justice
George A. Cooke in the fourth dis
trict next Monday.
The Tribune in its editorial argu-
meat in favor of Justice Cookies re-
election, takes the position that has
been upheld by Justice Cookies sup
porters throughout the district, re-
CARELESS of politics all through the

/ the principle of non-partisanship in

court justices who have made good.
The Tribune says Justice Cooke has

question of qualification and fitness
II takes the stand that has likewise
been maintained by Justice Cookies
friends, irrespective of partisanship
and by Justice Cooke himself, that
there is no politics involved in SUI
preme court elections and that sup,
port may be bestowed upon him al
his desserts, without disparagement Of
his opponent.
In no way, aside from the principle
he represents and the fact that he ha!
proven his qualifications and availa
bility, has Justice Cooke so earned the
compliment thus paid him by the Chi
Cago Tribune as in his own fairness
toward his opponent Against Judge
Grier, he has uttered no unkind wore
since the campaign opened.
He has conducted himself toward hi
Opponent as becomes the attitude o.
one judge toward another. He hat
shown that fairness is one of the bes
attributes of the judicial makeup.
