IDEAS, OF INTEREST
Ex- x-President So Informs Yale
Graduates.

Albany, N. Y, Jan. 29.-Former
President Taft has discovered that the
American public, as reflected in the
daily press, is more interested in the
shrinkage of his waist line than In
his opinions on the Monroe doctrine.
He said SO at banquet of Yale grad
yates here and then hitched up his
pantaloons to emphasize his point.
Under the head of advice to Men
Who May Become ex-Presidents," Mr..
Taft related how he had expected to
electrify the country" with an address
on the Monroe doctrine at a recent
dinner in New York city.
II gave out copies of my speech in
advance to the newspaper men," he
explained "and then as a man will.
who hasn't met any of the Washing

told them how good ! felt and how
had reduced my avoirdupois.
Next day found my speech on the
Monroe doctrine tucked away on the
last page of the newspapers and had a
hard job to find it. But full particu
lars about my anatomy were found on
column one of the first page"

FOR PROMOTION OF TRADE
Russi sian-American Bank for st. Peters
burg Proposed.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 29.-Informal
overtures were made by a group OF
Russians to the ministry OF finance,
with a view to obtaining charter for
Russo-American bank, intended to
promote trade between Russia and
the United States.
The applicants said they were act
ing in concert with large American
banking interests.
The reply given was to the effect
that no discussion of the matter could
be entertained until securities repre-
senting half the amount of the capital
of the proposed bank-s2,500, 900
had been deposited either in st. Pc
tersburg or abroad.
This precaution is intended to pre-
clude the risk of negotiations being
opened with mere concession hunters
1t In no way implies the readiness o.
the ministry of finance to grant thu
charter demanded.

IN A SALOON TOWN.


One Of the most pitiful stories ever
printed in The Hawk-Eye was that Of
the debauch innocently INDUCED in
Saturday by number Of young boys
in Burlington. The ages of the lads
were from s to II years, and ;hey were
entirely innocent Of any intention to
&C on a carousal. They got mold Of a
jus of liquor which was in a wagon
htched near at hand, ald not knowing
the risk they ran they drank freely Of
the stuff. OF course all were rendered
il toxicated. One little fellow was dead
to the world for quite while, ana was
found lying in the street. II is sa d
- boys We're spanked for wha; they
cid.
ne Hawk-Eye Is OF the opinion that
the spanking was clear,T cut OF place.
There should. instead. have been tears
and heart breaks among the parents Of
the children who were tcus led by an
ahominable traffic - GeDauch theis
rcdies.
Every parent Of child in that group
should make it his business to find OUT
the name of the man in whose wagon
the liquor was found. and the name OF
the saloon that sold the stuff.
There is no law which would cover
this particular case, bu. public opinion
sometimes has Its effect.

SAFETY AND SANITY.

Speaking to a religious educationa
association at New Haven, Professor
Taft assured his hearers that we mus
unite clear thinking and sanity II we
would accomplish good and make
new special order that will mean prac-
teal progress" So far as the woros
are concerned they are those OF WIS
dem. Clear thinking and sanity are
surely necessary elements in progress
and reform. The real question comes
to the front when we strive to dit-
ferentiate between sanity and clear
thinking and their opposites.
The phrases used by Mr.. Taft have
been slioly uttered in resistance 70
every reform the world has ever ac-
complished. The assertion that all men
are created free and equal and en-
dowed with inalienable rights brought
cut the opposition orator with MS
SNUG advice to be sane"
Human slavery was a safe and
sane" institution in its day. Those were
sane" men who saw big business and
large profits from black bodies al WORK
in the tobacco fields Of early Virginia
The liquor trade was not many years
ago a sane" avenue to fortune. The
anceint caucus was the sane" method
in party politics. All the progress ever
made has met at the threshold OF
innovation men of prominence with
uplifted hand and the warning that we
must be sane.
1t is all a question as to what con-
st:1utes sanity and insanity. True
enough there are many insane projects
advanced ard unsafe and pseudo re-
formers flourish. But the proposition
that was considered insane yesterday
Is the sanity and sense Of today. But
day before yesterday an airship was an
impossioi!ity. But last evening ii shot
across the skies and men looked up
without curiosity at an accomplished
fact.
Test the sanity Of the proposition ad-
Tanced as progress to your own in
dIvidual satisfaction and follow your
own best knowledge and impulse. Ask
il it be righteous. The answer is the
solution. Follow where your own bet
ter nature and understanding lead.
That IS sane which is right. That
which is best for all men is the high
way Of progress. To be individually
and nationally righteous is not "spe-
cial order" but a normal and sane
state OF affairs. All else is abnormal
and all that IS abnormal lacks sanity.
Go forward each day. Bivouac on
advanced ground each night. Choose
the spot where YOU shall rest with care
and caution and in the light Of judg-
ment Be your own judge OF right. Do
not fear. For tomorrow is another day
and all that is good today will live in
its sunshine. It is true of individuals.
Of cities. townships. states, nations
Believe it.
