DISCOVERED THEIR MISTAKE.

1t took a Michigan couple twenty
FIVE years TO discover they had made
a mistake when they got a divorce.
Meantime the woman had married a
second time and lost her husband by
death.
Perhaps the intervening years may
have taught them also that for man
and woman to live together happily it
is necessary for them to bear and
forbear.
This couple had two children before
they separated. After living together
that long and passing through those
experiences they must have been very
foolish or lacking in love for each
other TO permit differences TO arise
that broke up their family relations.
If reason and patience and fOrbear-
ance come with years perhaps they
will be sensible enough not 20 repeat
their folly,
The experiment. however. is not
without its dangers. 1t Will be neces-
sary for them TO be very discreet if
the differences which separated them
years ago are not resurrected. The
memory is at times an unpleasant
companion. 1t recalls the most unde-
sirable things. II this man and wom-
an have the steadfastness Of purpose
10 forget or 10 keep the past buried,
or the clearer conception TO regard
their separation as folly they may get
along. but the chances are rather
against IL.
Their remarriage is likely 10 be
more matter Of convenience than
the promptings OF the original love
they may have had for each other.
In their loneliness their thoughts have
naturally reverted to each other II
VIII be fortunate If love has revived
with recollection.

AN INHDIOTS ATTACK.

The selling of government two per
cent bonds at a discount Of four and
a half per cent is attributed TO oppo-
sition to the currency bill. Sec. Nc
Adoo openly charges New York bank
ers with an attempt to cause uneasi-
ness about these bonds for the purpose
named.
Two-thirds of these bonds are held
by the country banks, that is banks
outside the larger financial centers, to
secure circulation. and it is easy to
understand that if the depreciation of
these securities could be attributed TO
the currency bill powerful opposition
TO that measure would follow. Sec.
McAdoo exposes the foundationless
character of this impression. He
gives good reasons for the bonds re-
naming at par.
Under the provisions of the new
banking and currency bill the two per
cent bonds are made convertible into
three per cents and definite period
has been fixed for their redemption at
par with interest. The beating down
Of these bonds was therefore purely
fictitious and can be explained only on
the hypothesis that it was done for
the purpose charged by Sec. McAdoo.
The indictment is a serious one. 1t
shows TO what lengths the money
power in New York will go to main
tain its control of the finances Of the
country.
Nothing is too sacred for these
New York banks TO attack or destroy
If their selfish ends can be served. The
credit of the government which has
stood unimpaired and unquestioned
for a century and a quarter, is not
safe from their insidious methods, or
would not be but for the exposure Of
their purposes, such as that made by
Sec. McAdOO.

NEW YORK, July SO.-Are there
who don't read the newspapers?
1t seems hard to believe. But,
when one thinks of the columns and
columns of stuff that have been print
ed in the papers of this country, in
the last ten or twenty years. about the
'wire-tapping swindle" and then con-
siders the remarkable experience OF
Edward Lee Baxter Dawson of Char
lotte, y. C.-well, listen to it
Mr.. Edward, etc, stopped off in
New York enroute from Charlotte TO
Europe. He had some $500 in regu-
lar money and a draft for $4,000.
He stopped at one of the choicest
hotels and while he was peaceably
taking in the splendors of its lobby,
human and architectural, one warm
afternoon, a man whom he did not
know addressed him.
When one is addressed by a man
one does not know in New York, the
customary procedure is to place one
hand on the wallet, the other on the
timepiece and scan the otfing for a
cop.
But Mr.. Edward, etc, did not know
this. He conversed fearlessly with
the stranger as one cOnverses fear
lessly with a stranger in Charlotte
Mr.. Jones, for that was the strangers
name, soon introduced a Mr.. Harris,
who had a scheme for making money
by tapping the wires which run from
the race tracks and betting money on
horses which had alreCly won.
Mr.. Jones and NJ. Edward. etc,
gave Mr.. Harris money and he won
some wagers for them. After cashing
several bets of varying size, Mr.. Ed

fortune at one fell swOOp. He would
wager his $4,000 draft. Jones and
Harris demurred at the draft They
said il was bad business handling
drafts in the overlapping business.
Wouldn't Mr.. Edward, ETC., go back
TO Charlotte, get his draft cashed and
bring them tho money.
He did. Believe 1t or not, he DID.
But in Charlotte he happened to
speak to Frank Osborne, one Of his
neighbOrs and a brother of James w.
Osborne, a prominent New York at
torney and former assistant prose-
cutor, about the get-rich- quick en-
terprise. Frank advised him TO see
brother Jim before he put up the
$4,000.
As soon as Jim Osborne could con-
troll his mirth. after hearing the story
of Edward, etc, ne directed the Char
lotter TO the Office Of Deputy Police
Commissioners Dougherty The latter
telegraphed to Frank Osborne, in
structing him TO telegraph TO Jones
and Harris, who had given a New
York hotel address, and advise them
that Edward, etc. would arrive IN
New York on a certain day over the
Pennsylvania railroad.
on that day Edward, etc, went
over TO Newark and took a train back
10 New York. When he got of the
train Detective Vancott got off just
behind him and nabbed Jones and
Harris even as they stretched out
hands of greeting To their friend
from Charlotte. They proved TO be a
well-knOwn pair OF con men.

WHERE THE HITCH IS.

II Fred Keller enters the mayOralty
race in the citizens party the pri-
maries held at the end OF August may
rival In interest those held in the first
week Of the month.
The democrats are certain 10 have
a coed fight on August S. though the
republican and bull moose primaries
will doubtless fail 10 furnish any ex-
element.
But with Swygart. a former repub-
lican, Place, a former democrat, and
Keller, a former bull mooser fighting
for the citizens nomination, the
chances would be fine for a primary
battle in which men Of all parties
might enter TO seek TO cOnfound the
original plan OF the Tribune-Trium-
virs, and the boosted n-partisanship
OF the project be swamped.
The "unco' good" element Of the
citizens movement, which is talking
good citizenship and seeking political
power. isn't blind TO the fact tina the
SwygaTt following is simply trying TO
capture the new party and make 1t a
republican movement in all but name.
The old line republicans VINO have
gone into the citizens movement for
one motive or another will hardly be
able to forget that Keller led the bull
moose revolt in st. Joseph county last
fall, that revolt which ended so disas-
trously for the once grand old party.
Keller quit the county committee in
the midst of the campaign TO direct
the attack against it.
Places statement that if he is elect
ed. he wouldn't pay his political debts
10 the Tribune by handing over all the
city printing may make it easier for
that newspaper to support some other
candidate even in the face of its own
beliefs that the citizens party would
have to nominate a democrat to win.
The prospective entry OF Keller in
10 the race justifies earlier predictions
that the Triumvirs themselves would
have 10 run in order to have candi-
dates they could support. Next to
himself, the Tribune editor would
rather support Keller or Happ. Next
TO himself. Happ would rather sup
port Keller. As long as the triUmvirs
are represented one big object may
be considered gained.
Rumors that still another candidate
might enter the citizens party race
after the Aug. primaries, a candi-
date who would be satisfactory 10 the
pp-Kener-Tribune group are still
in circulation, and furnish the dope
sters with another line OF speculation.
The underlying thing seems to be
this--that as long as the Tribune
Triumvir crowd has started the new
party, IL wouId be "a shame TO have
any one else come along and take il
away from them. They have to have
some one heading the ticket who will
follow their orders, and secure 10 them
the political power and public print
ing, the two great objects of the cam
paign.
If il were not that the candidate
whoever he is. must face the people
aud earn a nomination and election 10y
their votes, the problem would be
simple. The triumvirs could pitch q
penny for it But someone has to
run who can get the votes. And that's
the hitch.
