Reply To Mr.. Tyrcc.

Editor of The Richmond Vrginian:
Sir,--fn todays issue of the Virginian I note
the splendidly written article by Mr.. r. A.
His questions aim at the very core of the whole
situation. Let me say frankly that man
can pay rent. feed and clothe household of
FIVE, especially If there is much sickness and
give the three children a proper training for
life on 81. so per day. Yet, he must live within
the boundaries of his income. Debt has wreck
ed many a home, We should pay as we GO
If can't, don't go very far The question
would introduce a discussion upon the Unjust
Relationship Between Capital and Labor"
Either the workingman must have more wages
or all prices must fall. My sermon next Sunday
night at Calvery Baptist church on 1.-THE Home
Itself will answer the other questions pro-
pounded / shall then discuss THE Importance
of Having a Home THE Finances of tho
Home" What Pulls Down Home" What
Builds Up Home"
l glad to add that the spirit of this age is
directly opposed to exclusiveness, restriction,
narrowness, monopoly Human action Is now
freer, unconfned. All goods, advantages
helps more open TO all. The privileged,
petted individual is becoming less and tho
human is becoming more. The multitude
Is rising from the dust Once we heard Of the
few, now of the many; once of the prerogatives
of part now of the rights of all. T welcome
a better day for the toiling masses. With
liquor gone. conditions will improve rapidly.

One of the first political conventions OF the
year was held last week at Bangor. Maine. under
the auspices Of the Progressive party. The
Maine Progressives declared for unsparing war
against the Republican organization: for pro-
tectiye tarin and for return to Statewide pro-
hibition. 1t will prove difficult platform 70

EARTH is DRYING UP:
BRITISH SAVANT SAYS

LONDON, March 30.-Prof, r. w.
Gregory has been busy for some time
past dealing with the question wheth-
er the earth Is drying up. His conclu-
sions are here reproduced:
Owning to the varied nature of the
evidence to be considered. the extern

most OF that evidence has to be CLEAN

expressed by high authorities, the
problem whether the earth is drying
up Is hedged about with difficulties.
But one fact does seem to mo to re-
suit clearly from the evidence: there
have been many widespread climatic
changes in late geologic times. while
In historic times there has been no
worldwide change OF climate.

such as Egypt and Palestine, tho bal

SUFFERS TESTIMONY.

Murphy said he would and he did.
That is the sum and substance of the
testimony of the impeachcd governor Of
New York, William Sulzer. Back of
the story of the wreckine Of the Sulzer
administration by the Tammany chief
and his willing tools in the New York
legislature lie years of graft, the exist
Mr. Su!2er even if he never became an
actua! participant in the distribution Of
the money extracted from the state
highway contractors.
II was foolish for him to take high
moral ground as governor when as con-
gresham he had touched pitch and
been defiled. Doubly foolish when
he knew the cards were stacked against
him and that his antagonist was cool,
crafty and unscrupulous. Sulzer can
not possibly do Murphy any harm by
duplicating him in shady transactions,
for the simple reason that everyone
knows the Tammany man is CRATER
and that the Democratic organization
in New York City is held together by
plunder.
The time for Mr. Sulzer to have
posed as reformer was before he ran
for governor. He chose to remain ST.
lent aud accept office at the hands OF
Tammany when he must have known
what his chief would demand.
Perhaps District Attorney Whitman 8

sentiment to such an extent that some

low conspirators on the floor OF the
house, will be de,eated in the coming
election. but it is doubtful whether any
such happy results will follow.

WILLIAM H. BANCROFT.

In accordance with his wishes, Nll-
liam II Bancroft. who has been one
of the most prominent figures IN west
ern railroad affairs for a generation,
will be relieved of his duties as vice
president and general manager of the
Oregon Short Line. Mr.. Bancroft has
desired for year TO make the change
and thus gain the rest and leisure SO
we'll deserved by ono who has been IN
harness for more than half century.
He will remain as president OF the Utah
Light g. Railway company, first vice
president Of the Salt Lake Route and
first vice president Of the Oregon Short
Line, AS vice president of the Short
Line, the dean of railroad men IN Salt
Lake will be called upon to discharge
only such duties as arc assigned TO hlm
bv the board Of directors, the executive
committee or its chairman.
No railroad in this region could have
q more valuable adviser than Mr.. Ban
croft Since 1890 he has watched the
region grow and has been not only a
close student Of its progress, but one
of tho chief promoters of that progress.
To him is due in large measure the
credit for developing transportation ia"
cilities in Utah and Idaho to keep
pace with the expansion of agriculture
and commerce, and through his efforts
and wisdom agricultural and CONNER
cial development have been directed
along lines most advantageous for the
entire population. While not pioneer
of the west, Mr.. Bancroft ranks high
among those constructive captains who
have brought the west to its present
pinnacle Of greatness.
When the late L. II. Hartman pur-
chased the street railway system of
Salt Lake City he found it in rather
primitive condition. Under the dlrec-
ton of Mr.. Bancroft it has become ono
of the most efficient systems in the
country. From the fact that Mr.. Ban
croft remains as president Of the Utah
Light & Railway company 1T is to be
presumed that it Will receive the larg-
est share Of his attention, and the peo-
pie of Salt Lake will have reason to
congratulate themselves on this ar
rangement.
The duties which Mr.. Bancroft
now lays aside will be taken up
by Mr.. +. T.. Calvin, who will become
vice president and general manager Of
the Short Line, For number Of years
he was general superintendent under
Mr.. Bancroft, and is therefore no
stranger to the Short Line or to Salt
Lake City. His return from brief
exile on the coast will find his old
friends eager TO welcome him, and the
best wish that they can express in his
behalf is that he will succeed as splcn
dldly in his new position az did hi;
predecessor.
it is gratifying to know that in tbs
positions he retains Mr.. Bancroft will
still be able to devote his high talent'
to the upbuiding of the city and state

POLITICIANS GUESSING.

There appears to bo considerable
cropping in the dark among politicians
as to what the future has in store Sena-
tor Cummins Of Iowa and Senator Clapp
of Minnesota hold widely divergent
views as TO the future of political par
tics in this country. Both these sena
tors were elected as Republicans and
therefore represent the same party in
the halls Of congress, Both have been
known as Progressivcs and while Cum
minis has definitely taken his place in
the ranks of the Republican party there
are indications that Clapp is going to
follow the fortunes of Roosevelt.
Senator Cummins declared IN an ad-
dress before thetAmerican Academy Of
Social and Political Science that "there
is no question or series of questions on
which the people may be equally or
nearly equally divided. and that the fu.
ture will bring into existence greater
number of parties divided on minor
questions, none of which will be in the
majority in congress.
Senator Clapp, who followed. took the
view that there always would be two
great political parties and that in the
future one party would be based on
special privilege and the other on tine
general welfare.
Senator Cumuins believes that all
modern problems Of statecraft relate to
the distribution of wealth and that
there will always be widely divergent
views as to the time and manner IN
which various reforms are TO be eff
| fected. He no longer believes that the
country is to be separated into two DO.
| litical camps, one rcactionary and one
progressive. Senator Clapp, on the
other hand, expresses tho opinion that
one great party will champion the cause
of special privilege while the other will
defend the people against oppression.
| Former Senator Bevcridge recently
declared that the Republican party was
dead, that the Democratic party, after
passing few hail hearted reform meas
ures would again become the conserva
tive party of the country, and that The

Our own guess is that the Republican

meet in battle array and that the Pro

Commercializing a Profesaion.

The Bee begins today the publication OF
several articles showing how few shrewd Min
nesota lawyers are building up in that state
gigantic industry In nonresident personal injury
litigation against railroads. These lawyers
solicit business after the most modern and
highly commercialized methods of trade. obliv-
ious of all such sentimentality as professional
ethics" They employ personal representatives
to scour the country, and appoint sub-agents
among railroad employees and others to turn
in claims wherever possible; maintain skillful
literary agencies. send out pamphlets, brochures
circulars and anything calculated to get busi-
ness. They have gathered cases from many
states far and wide, piled high the millions of
dollars in alleged claims, imposed enormous
burdens on the taxpayers OF Minnesota and in
many instances deprived their deluded clients
OF better chances to recover In the states of
their residence or origin of'the accidents.
The overshadowing fact is that, not the
claimants, but these lawyers, are the big bene-
ficiaries OF the industry And the melancholy
truth is that this Minnesota situation is but a
reflection of an all too prevalent tendency in
many parts OF the country. This abuse OF
things is In no wise confined to any one state.
And II is precisely such abuses that the profess
sion of law must repress to hold a position of
public repute.
The Minnesota scandal has been put up to
the Bar association OF that state. The whole
shameless situation the country over is up 10
the decent lawyers for correction.

Bird's.Eye View Of the University.

The report OF the committee Of eminent edu-
Gators on sthe question OF consolidation. now
made public. gives us a birds-eye view of the
future of our state university. These men,
each at the head OF a great educational institu-
ton in some other state, and thus free from
personal interest or locality bias. and moved
only by considerations OF the universitys future
usefulness and welfare. are unanimous in
recommending consolidation The unifying Of
the university departments now separated be
tween the downtown campus and the agrcul-
tural college in the suburbs is. they tell us i'm
evitable if our forces OF higher education are
to be effectively organized, and halfway meas
ures taken in Difference to the pleas OF private
interests can be but temporary, and at best only
postpone the time when they must be undone
to make way for final consolidation.
The members Of the comittee who are recog-
nized among the foremost educators of the
country, see a great future ahead for our Ne
braska universlty-greater even than we have
been picturing for ourselves They credit us
with possessing exceptional opportunities, which
have only to be grasped and made the most Of
in the light of the dearly-boueht experience of
other states that would give anything to have
their educational resources centered and unified
instead OF separative and competitive. II we
do not fully utilize these opportunities we wilt
be properly censurabe.
The mistaken advocates OF perpetuated seq
ieeation WILL OF course, denounce the report
and urge the people to disregard Il. But what
should commend It most is It's very breadth OF
vision and its wholly dispassionate tenor. The
case for consolidation could not be more con-
vincingly stated nor put upon higher grounds
What is more, the people of Nebraska owe
debt of gratitude to these educational experts
who have freely given us their valuable time,
and more valuable advice.
