titled by right of seniority
A report was finally made by the Hous.
committee. In which II was held tho,
Major Ray had been engaged in political
activity In the interest OF the Republican
President Taft: that Major Ray had on al
least four occasions been charged with
serious offences and had never been vindi.
Gated; that in one case court martial pro.

then chief Of staff, without apparent rea.
son. and that Major Ray had been shown
more personal consideration in assignment
to stations than any other paymaster N
the army. The committee claimed 1t 10 be
its duty to call public attention to the
case on the ground that II one army ON.
Ger were allowed favors and immunity
from punishment as a result Of political
services or influence 1t would serve as a
pernicious example to all officers and be
subversive OF discipline in the army.
Senators Fletcher, Vardaman and Bris.
tow are the members Of the sub-commit-
tee Of the Senate Military Committee who
will now consider this matter Major Ray
has called the attention OF these Senators
to the fact that they will look in vain
through the hearings held before the
House committee to find where he or any
one representing his interests was ever
called upon TO present his side Of the case
or answer the charges made against him.
He claims to know of no charges before
the War Department involving his honor
as an officer. He volunteered. he says, to
appear either before the House Military
Committee or the Committee on Expendi.
ture In the War Department, but was
never called before either. He claims the
right guaranteed TO every citizen OF this
country TO have hearing before he is
finally condemned Members Of the Sen.
ate subcommittee seem to be impressed
with the justice OF this demand on Major
Rays part. and to be in favor of giving
the officer a chance to be heard in his own
behalf.

Work of Extra Session of Congress.
Congress made little progress dur
ing the week with the tariff bill. 1t
had been announced on behalf of the
republicans that there would be no
filibustering to prevent the measure
being put on its final passage at as
early date as possible, but senators
show no inclination to abandon their
right to criticise the schedules and
to express their opinion of the prob
able consequences of striking at the
protective system. There were some
scraps, which enlivened the proceed
ings, but on the whole the debate is
proceeding in an orderly and entire
ly unexciting manner.
The fever for investigation still
RACES, and numerous witnesses have
been examined, with the object of
eliciting proof that there have been
corrupt lobbying practices. 1t is
doubtful, however, whether any i'm
preston has been made on the pub
lie, as most of the testimony points
to the lobbying complained of being
confined to attempts to convince
congressman that this, that or the
other policy is the proper one to
pursue, and that failure to pursue it
will be followed by unpopularity and
defeat at the polls.
The prospects of currency legisla-
tion during the extra session have
visibly declined and the probabilities
favor the belief that a great part
of the regular session may be con-
sumed before any result is achieved.

GREATER DEAD.

1t is reported that when the moth
er of Robert Burns looked upon his
monument she exclaimed, "Ah, Rab.
ye asked for bread, and they ha'
given ye a stane." The poor poet
went hungry many and many a day
in his lifetime, but after he was dead
his admirers put up thousands of
pounds for a monument 70 his mem
ory. Very recently a manuscript of
his production was sold to a million
aire American for $4,000, more
money than the poor fellow saw in
his entire life. Yet such seems to be
the fate of almost every great man.
Few men who are recognized as great
during their lifetime have continued
to be great through any considerable
period after death. Burns was not
alone in suffering this awful tragedy
of non-appreciation.

1t is amusing to read the cries set
up by such men as Senator Smoot of
Utah. He is saying that the beet
sugar industry, which is one of the
greatest industries of the desert
state, will go to smash when sugar is
placed on the free list. We cannot
understand why Apostle Smoot
should be worrying about the tariff.
1t looks to us as if the tithing of the
Mormon church will continue, tariff
or no tariff, and the income from
fittings is said to amount to three
millions of dollars a year. Apsotle
Smoot will still have a shot at this
enormous fund. We cannot under
stand why he should be worrying
about tariff.

THE ONLY SURE METHOD.

Ordinary folks sometimes wonder
why, if the railroad business is as
bad as the railroad managers claim,
the people who invest in railroad
stocks don't weary of it and sell out.
They overlook that the money in
railroading is only incidentally rail-
roading. Chiefly it seems to be in
what might be called note shaving.
August % holders of New Haven
stock are to vote on an issue of $67,-
552,400 six per cent, twenty-year
debenture bonds, convertible after
five years into common stock. The
issue, it is announced, has been over
subscribed.
The asserted purpose of this new
issue is to lift a lot of short term
notes and also to supply cash for
needed improvements. But as likely
as not it is to enable the bond ped
dlers to make another fat "divvy."
For if it were merely to pay debts
couldn't it be more easily done by
the New Haven selling some of the
excess property with which it is
overloaded?
To buy debentures at par, hold
them five years, exchange them for
stock which under normal conditions
ought to be worth at least 200, and
then rig the market for the sale of
the stock at or above that figure
offers a pretty little adventure to
inside finance.
We don't say this is going to be
done, but it is of piece with what
has been done and it is what must
be expected so long as our railroads
are run, not for public service, but
for private gain through whatever
form of speculation most conduces
to private gain for those on the in
side.

"REALLY LIVING"

Comes now a Chicago society wom-
an who, after a flight iii an airship
graciously supplied by John DIS SON.
in-law, says that she never really
lived" until she took the trip in the
contrivance with mechanical wings.
Time was when women were con-
tent to sit in stiff-necked pews and
sing 81 want to be an angel and
dream of waiting about on wings of
their own, earned by usefulness,
goodness and sacrifice.
Those women really lived" don't
you think they did? Their days
were filled with the happy satisfac-
tion of caring for their children, OF
seeing that the kitchen was scrupu-
lously clean and that the furniture
in the parlor was free from dust.
They put patches on the pants OF
the boys and braided the hair of the
small daughter, sending 'em trudg.
ing to school with faces clean and
hearts brave and pure.
They ministered to the sick, were
kindly to neighbors, made pets OF
dumb animals and filled their homes
with a radiance of love and care
which made it mighty pleasant
place to go after school or work.
They, too, at times wanted to fly
and so they sang about it on Sun
day. But not because they felt they
weren't really living. They were
not just tired with nothing to do oil
from a surfeit of frivolity such as
dancing in pajamas until dawn, as
in Newport the other day.
They had their moments of mood
ness and their times when throbbins
nerves cried out for the solace o
strange adventure. They got blue
and sometimes, mayhap, they scoldet
and grew pettish and fretful AM
cross. But it didn't take a $500,
aeroplane to bring back to them tn,
joy of living.
Not that we've anything agains
the flying machine or against WON
en- flying in it if they haven't NOR
important things to do.
Sport is great and we all nee
more of it. But the best sport of al
is to find useful, stimulating, ere
ative work. The Chicago societ
woman ought to try that before ,sh
pronounces final judgment on wha
constitutes real living"

To the credit of President Wilson
it is said that he promptly squelched
the movement of raising a large sum
of money by public contribution for
buying a wedding gift for his daugh-
ter, Miss Jessie, who is to be msr-
ried in the White House early in the
fall. A very enthusiastic person in
Baltimore started out to raise, by
public subscription a fund with
which to buy Miss Jessie wedding
gift which should represent the
tribute of the American people, but
Mr.. Wilson refused to stand for it.

BURNING PEOPLE.

1t is amazing what a practice We
Ambericans have of burning people
to death. In one day recently 35
convicts in Mississippi and about so
factory hands in New York were
burned up, undoubtedly the result of
carelessness or thrift. The manu-
factory owners are willing to take a
shot at burning up a few persons
rather than go to the expense of pro-
viding reasonable protection against
occurrence of fires or suitable pro-
lection for the rescue in case of a
fire. The "shirtwaist factory fire"
of New York, less than two years
ago, the burning of the big excursion
boat in New York harbor a few years
ago and the Iroquois theatre horror
of Chicago are still fresh in mind.
When it comes to housing people in
tinder boxes where they are bound
to be roasted, if but the tinder gets
on fire, seems to be a practice ex-
tremely American and it should be
done away with.

The Wheatland Hop Fields Labor
Riots.

The labor trouble in the hop fields
of Wheatland, Yolo county, Califor-
MIA, was speedily terminated by the
militia. AS soon as the soldiers ap-
peared on the scene the l. w. WIS
who had instigated the riots made
themselves scarce. The killing Of
the four men by the rioters made a
profound impression throughout the
coast, and the opinion was freely
expressed that the trouble was in
vited by the failure to seriously re-
gard the difficulties created in San
Diego and other places by the an
archistic utterances and defiant atti-
tude of the band who proclaim their
enmity to honest toll and preach the
gospel of syndicalism. 1t will prob
ably be some time before the l. W.
WIS exhibit as much brazenness as
they have during the past year or
so, for they have not failed to note
the general outburst of Indignation
created by the murderous affair at
Wheatland. But if future tragedies
of the same kind are to be avoided
1t will be necessary to keep a strict
watch on the mischief-makers, and
incidentally make the coast as inhos-
pitable to their kind as possible.

THE KITCHEN CURE FOR THE
HAMMOCK HABIT.

You've no doubt seen the type of
girl who sits in the hammock and
reads dippy novels while ma washes
the dishes or mends daughters
clothes.
Well, there's one family in an east
ern city where that wont happen.
It's a wealthy family, pa being a
lucky manufacturer who got into the
tariff trough while the getting in
was good. They employ three maids.
But the other day, as daughter got
back home from finishing school,
one of the maids gave notice and
ma said to the Sweet Girl Graduate:
Here, my child, is chance for
you. Pa and / have been spending
a lot of money to get you educated.
The prime purpose of education for
a woman is to qualify her to be the
administrator of a home. You've
had a good training in the theory of
housekeeping, but you've not had the
chance to put that theory under the
test of practice. We can afford to
hire another third maid, all right;
but we aren't going to. You are to
be the new third maid"
And, being a sensible girl, albeit
fashionably finished" daughter saw
the point, 'donned a wrapper, rolled
up her sleeves and went to work.
When your daughter gets into the
hammock and novel habit, try the
kitchen cure.
