molds we're warm and waiting, but when the candy
maker sent out for the peanuts he was shocked to
learn that there were none to be had. Since then
the panic fear has spread The very thought Of q

crushed whatever spirit remained after the egg

With so many commissions and committees

like hardship to ask that another inquiry should

OUR ANNUAL COAL YIELD.

The resources of the United States have to be
discussed in terms Of large figures, and, according
to the latest returns, it is King Coal which leads
them all, at least among the minerals.
The Coal Trade Journal tells us that the value
Of this fuel mined last year in the United States es
timated at the place Of production, amounted to
$637 900 900, and at the time are furnished
with some interesting comparisons. We hear much
Of the amount of gold mined in this country, for in
stance; and yet the gold output last year was only
worth $llO,O00,000. We speak rather largely of
the output of silver and yet that was valued at only
$2SOOOOOo. e
About the only thing that. comes out of the
earth which compares in value to coal is pig iron,
the output of which has been about $500, 900 900
annually in recent years. Petroleum, with its an
nual value Of Sls7,OoOoOO, is not to be lightly
passed over, and yet it still leaves coal as King
among the minerals :
rt Timid people occasionally wonder if the. supply
will not be exhausted under this continued drain
hrs when is remembered that there are practically
virgin fields in China which would supply the world
tvh fuel for thousands of years there seems to be
40 real reason for apprehension.

LIST OF BOOKS USED
AT STRATFORD SCHOOL

To the Editor OF THE TIMES:
have read with interest the various
letters that you have published in re
the Bacon-Shakespeare controversy,
which was set going by E. II. Sothern
by his able article in Munsey's Maga-
zine. Every letter that you have pub
lished from the Baconians indicates a
woeful lack Of information. 1t seems
to me that the very name "Baconian" Is
synonymous for ignorance.
One CT these benighted persons has
stated that there were no school books
Of any consequence printed during
Shakespeare boyhood; that books
then were very scarce. In making This
statement they simply draw aside the
lay their ignorance wide open.
In point OF fact, the disputes among
the stationers Of the time show that

THE SIX GOVERNORS.

New Hampshire, Nebraska Michigan, Missouri,
Kansas, West Virginia-a grouping Of States quite
significant enough for Republicans the country over
to consider, where it appears that in each case the
governor regards Theodore Roosevelt as the one Re-
publican in the country who can win the election
for his party this year.
These men all realize that Colonel Roosevelt
does not want the nomination. and will not be can
didate for it, He has had all the prestige there is in
the office already. But at the same time they find
the sentiment strong and pressing in all parts Of
the country that only under his leadership can tho
Republicans count on success in the elections.
They believe they can do most for the party
and the country by observing this and aiding it to
crystalline. They are convinced that the way to Sc
cure his leadership and prosperity to the coun-
try is to make the demand for him so pressing that
it cannot be denied.
They will have their motives attacked by Demo-
cratic critics. In fact the fusilade has begun al
ready, but it might we'll be fired in the air. These
six governors simply index the feeling that may be
found in any one of all the States in the Union
1t is the sentiment of the people. In many
States in Massachusetts, the existing Republican
organization is strongly committed to the Presi-
dent that the managers ignore the question Of avail
ability. They rest on precedent and are bndly in
sisting following it. They adopt the attitude OF
the ostrich when the real question of the campaign
is presented-that Of the future of the party in the
coming elections This is singular for it subordi-
mates the organization to the fortunes of one in
dividual. The six governors take the other outlook
the broad one. Their test makes them seek the
man who can carry the people with him. And the
way in which it appeals to the country at large in
itself forecasts what is coming.

THE NAVY AND HIGH BUTTER.

These are troubled times for the United States
Navy Just at the moment when the House Demo-
Gratis in caucus have decided not to permit the con-
suction of any big battleships to be authorized
this session, an enemy comes along and explodes
submarine mine under the fleet in the form of a re-
port that the navy is responsible for the high prices
Of butter in this country.
Il 1t is solemnly asseverated that butter is at itS
present exalted altitude because Of the fact the navy
buys hundreds of thousands Of pounds to put into
cold storage for the use of the men on the ships
and in the navy yards 1t is declared for instance,
The Government now has in cold storage in Boston
and New York from 80 to 40 per cent of all the but
ter stored in those localities. s 4. .-.,tt
8 This is about the most damaging charge that
Gould have been hurled at the fleet. Unless it be
disproved by Secretary Meyer he will find that an
army of myiads of housewives will stand resoutely
between him and any appropriation or authorization
for more dreadnaughts. ,as8 s4
What's the use of trying to stop the invasion
of foreign foes if it be done only at such cost
as butter at so cents and upward pound? :.

Here's a Book
HEART AND CHART. BY Margherita
Spalding Gerry. published by Har-
per & Brothers. New York AMI
London.)

Mrs. Margherita Spalding Gerry is
washington woman whose name Is ia
miltar to magazine readers. and some
OF her previously published stories will
be recognized In the collection now is
sued under the title of Heart and
Chart" This title, by the way. Is more
terse and correct than it is happily ex-
pressive of the entertaining quality Of
these nine little sketches of people and
thar lives as encountered In the expert
Cnce of a trained nurse.
Mrs. Gerry has sympathetic under
standing of human nature and ready
gift of portraiture. Mrs. Maloney with
her poverty, her numerous family, AMI
her characteristic outlook in life. Sem
ator Oglethorpe, with his temptation
and his adoring wife. the poor young
bride in her drug-crazed despair, the
pathetic ideals and family pride of Mel
pcmene Tayloe-each of these Is the
center, in Washington or Washing
ton surroundings, of story that is a
real story. in the background of which
move the doctors and nurses who In
proportion are equally well-pictured.
The fault of the book comes in the
device presumably meant to hold the
stories together-namely, the intrusion
of the narrator's own love affair. In
this the reader has very little interest,
and the attempt to interweave IL seems,
moreover, TO have induced an affectation
of style which makes of the sweetly
sane and tactful little nurse a childish
trivial young thing constantly afraid
her girlishness will be overlooked.

GEN. ROBERT BADEN-PoWELL.

Maj. Gen. Robert Baden-Powell, whose bril-
liant defense Of Mafekng in the South African war
won for him his present rank at the hands Of Queen
Victoria, is the center of interest in Washington to-
day.
7 1t has been busy day for him. and the day is
not yet done, for his lecture this evening in Con-
tinental Hall will be the crowning feature OF his
visit. He is the idol of the Boy Scouts, for whose
Organization he is responsible. Born the birthday
of George Washington ffyfve years ago, he is still
comparatively young man to have achieved so
much in peace and in war.
The District is proud to have him here and our
people extend to him cordial welcome.
