cummins Arraigns Democratic Meth

WASHINGTON, Sept 10. - During the tariff debate yesterday afternoon, Senator A. B. Cummins, of Iowa. de- clared that Congress has lost it's place in the affections of the Ameri- can people who had accepted in it's place a single will-that of President Wilson"
 He asserted that the Democrats had ignored the principles of their party when they had applied the secret eau GUS method of considering the tariff bill and by that means forced a ma jority in the Senate for a bill that in reality was not favored in it's entirety by the majority of the members of the United States Senate.
 Tn proof of this contention" he said, 'I will read from the works of the man who has more influence in the Congress of the United States than any man ever before has had. re- fer to President Woodrow Wilson" He then read extracts from Wilson's po- litical writings condemning the secret caucus method of binding people to things that they do not believe in.

Currency Reform Also.

Continuing, President Wilson said there is every reason to believe that currency reform will be carried with equal energy, directness and loyalty to the general interest. When this shall have been done. the first session of the 63rd Congress will have passed into history with an un- rivaled distinction"

THIRTYTHIRD YEAR OF -PUBLICATI
Peter the Great
By GEORGE FITCH.
Author Of AT Good Old SlWash-7

~ ETER the Greats real name was
~ Peter AlexievitcL. He was the
l. most prominent member of the
great Witch family of Russia, and dur
ing his career entirely Overshadowed the
equally extensive Offs, Ovs and Owskys
families of his time.
Peter was born to a life job in the
royal family, and at a very early age
governed Russia with his brother Ivan.
In 1859 Ivan retired with Peter, and at
the age Of Is took over the entire stock
fixtures and good viii of the empire
and ran it himself TO the rest of his
life.
At this time Russia was in very
low state of civilization, being about
1000 years behind the rest of Europe,
and knowing nothing of navigation,
baseball or strOng-arm dancing. Ae-
cOrdingly Peter, with the idea of catch
ing onto some of the new wrinkles IN
government, strolled around Europe in
eognito, learning ship building in Hol-
land, commercial principles in LONDON
and light opera at Vienna. Returning to
Russia he introduced sweeping changes,
making the proud but unwashed Russians
shorten their coats, observe more mod
Grafton IN the wearing OF boards, and
exercise much more restraint in killing
each other. In fact, Peter declared that
he could do all the killing necessary, and
he displayed great industry in the art,
often looping of 20 heads in an evening

Picked People

safely slumber all night long upon their
beats, and there'd be no homeless pil-
grims finding lodgings in the streets,
and but few would ever perish on the
crcaking gallows tree, if there were no
picked people in this country of the free.
II there were no picked people, homes
now full of grief and Voc, would be glad
with song and laughter. as they were
long, long ago, ere Tired Father took TO
placing crimson tints upon his beak, ere
he handed to the brewers all his earnings
of the week. And a million weary
women might forsake the tubs and suds,
and million ragged children might be
wearing handsome buds. and a million
useless loafers might be busy as the bee
II there were no picked people in this
country of the free. Half the sorrow and
the trouble in this weary world of ours
come from tall and trimming fagons,
sparkling wines and whisky sOurs; what
a brighter, better present, what a future
we might see, If there were no picked

a rebellion, and acquiring a back stroke
with the execUtioner's sword which was
greatly admired.
Peter learned a great deal about war
during his travels, and soon made it so
unhealthy for the Swedes and Turks that
he was left in peace. He moved his
capital to a swamp on the Neva river
IN order to be nearer the sea. and
founded st. PetersburR-th most sue
ecssful job Of the kind ever done by one
man. He established schools and fac
tories, fired the head of the church and
ran it himself, revised Russia from
boundary to boundary and before he died
had 1t humming on the high gear.
Peter the Great did a great deal for
Russia, but was not a lovely character
himself, and wherever he hung around,
personally, civilization went down about
500 degrees. He loved nothing better
than to skin personal enemy or feed
him melted lead, and his morals were
represented by 70 ciphers after the
decimal mark. No little American boy

When judge a. J. Robertson, speak

club, in FL PasO a week ago predicted
the separation Of Canada from Great
Britain he was not aware that a few
hours before, Henri BOurassa, a Cana
dian member Of parliament, was do
ing the same thing in a speech before
the peace conference held at MOhOnk
lake, New York. This is what he said
as reported by a Boston newspaper.
The constant evolution of the British
empire is rapidly bringing the day
when Canada will have to assume the
responsibilities Of manhood, either as
an independent nation or as a real
partner Of Great Britain in some new
form Of federated association. In
either case Canada is bound to play an
important part in the affairs of the
world, and that part ought to be IA
vOrable to the cause Of peace and good
