In all this 1t is entirely clear that
Senator Pcnrose has decidedly the bet
ter of the statements He supports

letters and by facts that cannot be
disputed; indeed, there is little attempt
to dispute them, but chiefly feeble
efforts to evade tho force of what Sen

statement repudiating money from the
Standard Oil Company amounts to
nothing, because the standard Oil Com

and Colonel Roosevelt undoubtedly
knew this at the time that he put his
letter in the form that he did. lt Is

ANYTHING further. He stands on his
testimony given IN July with the recol'
lection he had at that time tDat it
was Mr. Rogers who contributed the
Standard Oil money.
Evidently there was a studied efort
on the part both of Mr.. Cortelyou and
of Colonel Roosevelt to get as much
money as possible from the Standard

And that Colonel Roosevelt was
desperately anxious to raiGe large
amounts of money for campaign pur-

SPELLING AND PHoNETICs.

The reformers of the English Ian.
guage who wish TO have the spelling of
words correspond to their phonetic
sounds. are always meeting with the
difficulty that the English letters do not
adapt themselves to that sort of exact
use The most Of the letters have diff
ferent sounds according to their differ
ent positions and the methods of, pro-
nunciation. The thorough. goers have
undertaken to meet this difficulty by
getting up new alphabet where every
character expressed has certain and
this, however, is its complication and
the trouble it would entail to get the
mastery of the new system. Besides,
(and this is perhaps the main objection,

THE SHERMAN NOTIFICATION.

The notification to FicePresldent
Sherman of his denomination by the Re-
publican National Convention to be
Vice-President of the United States was
made in due form at Utica, New York,
Mr.. Sherman S home. on Wednesday.

spokesman of the committee of Dotihca-

voted to the exercises of notification.
The commentator of Mr.. Sherman by
Senator Sutherland was straightforward
and we'll deserved. His denunciatlon OF
the boilers Of the Republican party and
his recognition Of the fitness Of their
leaving the Republican party If they
intended 10 fight it, was logical and
proper, in so far as those boilers have
so done. But in Kansas and in Cali
fornla they arc making strenuous ef-
fort TO usurp the Republican party
name. emblem, and prestige, and so dis
franchise the regular Republicans OF
their State. Senator Sutherland went
over the ground of the bogus Roosevelt
contests in the Chicago convention, and
referred pointedly 10 the delirious and
driveling irresponsibility of the Roose'
Welt worshipers. He showed again, and
truly. that the Roosevelt convention was
one-man convention in the most odious
sense OF the word
The response Of Vice-President Sher-
man was aightforward, and well be-
fitting the regular nominee of the Re-
publican party. He planted himself
souarely upon the Republican platform,
and approved of "the admirable state
mept Of Republican principles and
achievements made in the address ac-
cepting the nomination for President by
William Howard Taft and he de-
clared, "Upon that platform and asso'
ciated with President Taft, T gratefully

alluded gratefully TO the fact that in his
case alone has the Republican party
ever reuominated Vice.President, and
he very properly held that this was a
mark of appreciation and confidence in
himself that was we'll WORTHY of his
