TOMSK, Siberia, JAN 23.-On a visit
to this city from the distant town of
Zazajkal is the once beautiful Marie
Gorlewicz, now Marie Rafalski Years
of exile and labor in the Siberian mines
have made her old before her time.
Sixteen years ago Marie was the
radiantly beautiful young wife of an
elderly Odessa lawyer. Her beauty
and wonderful charm attracted many
admirers and her jealous husband led
her such life that she declared one
evening that she would rather endure
poverty than live with him any longer.
Servants testified that he begged her
to remain, swore never to torment her
again, and made peace. Next day M.
Goriewiez was found dead in his office.
Through it proved that financial ruin
stared him in the face, Marie was
charged with his murder Experts said
he had been poisoned The office boy
testified that madame was in her hus-
bands office when he took in tea and
put some powder into his glass. A
paper containing traces Of strychnine
was found torn up in the stove and
half burns. A chemist said she had
bought strychnine from him. Being
convicted, she was sentenced to twelve
years OF exile and hard labor in ST.
IBERIA.
Has Terrible Journey.
In 1896 she was sent in chains with a
batch of criminals to the Siberian
mines, doing most of the journey on
foot. Her little daughter remained in
Europe with strangers.
Marie was 80 when she started on
her terrible journey. By all calcula-
lions she was doomed to succumb to Ill
treatment within couple of years. But
she found friends everywhere and In
the prisons even the rough Cossacks /
pitied her and made her lot as beara-
BILE as they could.
In the mines she met John Rafalski, !
young political offender, also SEN
fenced to hard labor. Their court
ship took place in the bowels of the
earth and Marie said she would mar
ry him at the end OF their captivity.
Both Given Release.
In 1904 the Czarevitch's birth was
marked by liberal amnesty and both
Marie and her fiance were released
from the mines, though obliged to
spend the rest of their life in Siberia. [
Rafalski had inherited money while
in the mines and they set up a shop
at Zabajkal, by the giant lake that is
frozen ten months out of the year. The
war brought them custom and they
sold all they could import from Eur
ope. Rafalski worked hard, began toll
speculate in gold mines, and became
in Ave years a multi-millionaire.

EDITOR
M'ADOO The STRATEGIsT

The recent action of Secretary of the Treas
ury McAdoo toward relieving the possibility of
a money stringency is thus commented upon in
the latest letter from Henry Clews:
"The next important event was the announce
ment of Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo that
he was willing to authorize additional bank note
circulation to the amount of 500, 100000 under
the Aldrich-Nreeland act when the emergencies
demanded There was nothing new in this an
nouncement, for bankers and others in the finan-
cial district were quite well aware that the sec
rotary had this power. But the announcement
of the readiness of the new administration to
adopt this method when desirable eXerted a most
reassnring effect, and the better feeling thus in
duced caused sharp rally in the entire market
and Justly so. The short interest had been con
siderably expanded by previous developments,
and the rush to cover shorts materially aided the
upward movement. Mr. McAdoo's action de-
serves high commentator us a master stroke. Ii
is known that the notes for the emergency are
already printed and could be promptly issued if
required. The mere fact, however, that they are
practically and instantly available will do much
to restore confidence and check. foolish panic
talk. Nothing will do more to render the issue
of this currency unnecessary than the fact that
it is Immediately available"

say $340, O00, leaving a deficit of about
$4,000 on December 81 of this year and
nothing but the personal school taxes
and advances from the territorial gen.
eral fund to carry the school depart
ment until May, 1914, and there may
not be sufficient even then in the gen
erai fund for making such advances.
Thus, even if no increase is made IN
the number of school teachers for the
coming school year, the school depart
ment may be hard pressed for money
for a few months before the May and
November taxes, respectively, come IN
next year. Under these circumstances
it would seem to be clear that the
schedule of salaries should not be
changed so as to increase. the salaries
initially or to diminish the time within
which salaries reach their maximum
and also that the number Of teachers
should be kept as low as possible.

Wilson's Mind Set
It is realized in advance of the con-
ference that Ex-Governor Carriers ap-
peal would be fruitless. The presl-
dent has become exceedingly stub
born with reference to free sugar
and will hear no exhortations TO the
contrary. He has repeatedly an
nounced that his mind is made up and
there can be no change in the pro-
gramme outlined for downward tariff
revision.
Democratic leaders in the senate
have become much alarmed over the
silent attitude of Senator Walsh. OF
Montana, who declares he was elected
in a campaign where 1T was under
stood the Baltimore platform did not
pronounce for free sugar. Up to this
time he has consistently refused tc
inform his party associates of his In
tentions concerning sugar and wool
He has made no threats and no prom
ises.
In view of Senator Walsh's con
tinued reticence the leaders are now
figuring on passing the tariff bill
with the assistance of Viee-Presideni
Farshall's deciding vote. They have
eliminated Mr.. Walsh, in addition te
the two senators from Louisiana, and

legislation in matters in which he has personal

TO MAKE PULLMAN
CAR BERTHS WIDER
[By Latest Mail

CHICAG0-The Pullman Company
has just become possessed of the pat
ent right of q new device for the pur-
pose of making berths wider. Sleeping
car berths are not as wide as could be
desired because of the limitations
placed on the width of cars and the
necessity of providing sufficient aisle
space.
In compartment cars, however,
where there is a separate passageway
through the car outside the compart-
ments there is no objection to using
the aisle for extending the berths and
some of the compartment sleeping
cars are equipped with a device for
this purpose.
The seat ends are hinged so that
they can be swung down and support
ed by an angle brace and form hr-
oizontal extension OF the seat. When
two seats are pulled out, as is ordin-
arily done on making up the lower
berth, a filler is placed between the
two ends after they have been low
cred, thus forming full size bed.

"HITTlNG THE Big FELLOWS"

There are TIVE familiar ways of raising p0-
litical subscriptions, and the Republican county
committee, in securing a fund of $1,000 for a
publicity campaign, may take its choice.
The first way is to Shit the big fellows as
it is commonly and appropriately known The
method OF "hitting the big fellows is a simple,
albeit somewhat mysterious, way of doing polit-
ieal business. 1t consists in comforting with
some prominent Republican, who is also we'll
endowed with worldly goods, the conference
of course being en- '.the good of the party Dur
ing the conference, which is generally in some
private office the visitor brings up the subject
of party finances and the ..big fellow is separ-
ated from large contribution. In some cases
the contribution is voluntarily made, but usual
ly, confronted with the facts of a slim party ex-
chequer, the ''big fellow ''eomes through"
The other way is to distribute small assess
ments among the members of the party at large,
with the precinct club organization collecting
the money from the club members.
The Star-BulIetin believes that the latter way
is preferable. "Hitting the big fellows" involves
more or less secrecy and secrecy involves more
or less talk of einfluences' that may or may not
be true. Moreover, though the ''big fellows.
generally "come across with regularity and dis
patch, the method is not fair to them or to the
"lttle fellows" The mere fact that man is a
capitalist should cut no figure in his Influence
with the party. The Republican on a thousand
dollars year can be just as good a Republican
as the Republican on twenty-five or a hundred
thousand year.
To speak plainly, one of the reasons why a
good many Republicans on Oahu were alienated
last fall was because they believed that the aver
age man stood little show of having his political
prospects cared for by the party organization
unless he was Endorsed by the men who put up
the main percentage of the campaign fund. That
this attitude developed was not the fault of the
ssbig fellows" so much as the fault of the system
that accompanied party organization which
has placed too much reliance on "hitting" these
big fellows and too little on the members of the
party at large.
AT. any rate, the county organization might
test the loyalty of the precinct club members to
the party by fair attempt to raise the funds for
this campaign from among the clubs instead of
from among the capitalists.
Corporation campaign contributions in this
territory are now officially frowned upon OF
course the 'big fellows" expect to be "hit' just
the same, and when the heavier expenses of the
1914 campaign arrive, generous checks, yolun-
tarily given, will no doubt be acceptable. How
ever, for this publicity campaign, we would like
to see the whole party asked for small individual
contributions, and we believe such plan would
greatly stimulate interest in Republican prep
aration for 1914.
The "dollar contribution system has a lot
of merit
