PRIMARIES IN ACTION.

The operation of the primary in the state of Pennsylvania apparently shows no Improvement over the old method of selecting party candidates, however much it is in opposition to the con vention method. Purifying politics is matter which rests with the indi- viduals, but so far there seems to be no great rush to avail themselves of the opportunities granted, The primary does not prevent the widespread use of money and influence: it does not in spire the voter any more to the exer- else of his privileges and duties and 1t does not accomplish any different results, except that thereby it rests within the power of the people to get out and express their will, instead indefinite manner to exercise about as he pIeases.
 The primary permits many candi- dates to enter the field, but many are the instances which reveal the in ability of the voter to arrive at a de- cisioH as to which one he prefers. It Is the candidate with the financial backing who can go into the primary campaign and make the fight for rec ognition. The poor contestant stands little show of setting forth the merits of his candidacy without the expendi- ture of an unwarrantabie sum of money and yet in what ether way are the voters to be informed of the merits of the different individuals? The long CT it is in operation the more it is made evident that what advantages are afforded by the primary in small communities where candidates are known, they quickly disappear else where,

Every Home Needs
 This Great Remedy
No Home Can Afford to Be Without a Mild, Reliable
 Laxative-tonic.

No well-regu1ated home should be without a laxative, for there is scarcely a day in a family of several persons that someone doesn't complain of a headache, of sleepiessness, or show the first signs of cold.
 A laxative then becomes a necessity or what was a trifing congestion at the beginning may run into a serious cold or fever. No harsh remedy is needed, but simply a mild laxative tonic that will make the liver active and stir up the bowels.

MEDIATION.

With the opening of the mediation conference at Niagara Falls there has been instituted an effort in behalf of peace which should have the endorse ment and support of not only those countries and parties involved. but of the entire world It's object is to prevent war and all that goes there with, bring about the establishment of peace in Mexico, overcome it's chaotic conditions and help it to readjust it's government for the benefit of the re- public and the future of it's people, as well as perform the duty which de- wolves upon every country to exert it's best influence in helping others to reach a sound and sober settlement of difi1cuities.
 Ambassador da Gama fin the opening address to the peace gathering after declaring that the gathering is the expression of the sentiments of that human soli- darity which, not content with enjoy ing peace in solitude seeks to extend its benefits to alT' closed with the well expressed hope that above all this tumult will be heard the clear and persuasive voice of reason counselling the sacrifice of persons in favor of the collective interests of the people and spreading the gospel of peace and jus- tice'
 Upon the attainment of such a re- suit will depend largely the success of the undertaking. That it deserves to succeed cannot be questioned. It is a great task which has been tackled It already shows excellent progress along the line of adjusting conditions which concern international as well as internal war, and the fulfilment of the ambition will be a magnificent lesson to the world.

 Thus it is not strange that the need of giving more attention to this de- partment has resulted in the unani- nous approval by the lower house of congress of the legislation which is intended to improve and broaden the service. We have delayed long enough but If 1t was for the lack of demon stratien of the need and the value, that has now been received.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Queens Mary and Elizabeth

Mir. Editor: I was much interested in MT. Ringland's History vs. Fiction, and Not Tudor. but Stuart. Permit me to give little more light on Eng lands history during the 16th century. After the death of Richard III, the last king of the Plantagenet family. came Henry Tudor (Henry VII) who married Lady Bessee, eldest daughter of Edward w. Henry VII was anxious to make grand marriages for his four children and made peace with Scot land by marrying his eldest daughter, Margaret, to James W of Scotland. For his eldest son, Arthur, Prince of Wales, he obtained Katherine, daugh- ter of the King of Aragon, and Queen of Castle fFerdinand and Isabella), the latter making it possible by pledg- ing her jewels for Christopher Colum- bus to fit out three vessels and dis died. Henry VII did not want to lose all the money and jewels, which Kath- crime brought from Spain, then the most powerful country in the world, and married Katherine to his next son. Henry, Mary of When Knighthood Was in Flower fame, was married to the old and feeble King Louis of France. Margaret Tudor's son, James Stuart Games V) of Scotland, married Mary of Guise. Their daughter. Mary, became queen or 5EOIS WncH OILY d week old. This proves Queen Mary had the Tudor as well as Stuart blood. King Henry VIII had three children, Mary by Katherine of Aragon. Eliza beth, illegitimately by Anne Bolyn (di- vorces not being lawful at this pe- riod1. Katherine died shortly before Anne Bolyn was beheaded, Henry VIII then married Jane Seymour, who had one son, Edward, who became King Edward VI at the age of nine. After Edward came his sister, Mary I. During her short reign England lost Calais. port of France After Mary's death the next lawful heir was Mary Queen of Scots, notwithstanding her cloudy birth.

DUMMY DIRECTORS.

The revelations which Mir. Mellen is making concerning the New Haven system of bygcne days brings to at- fenfton In no uncertain manner the great responsibility which deyoIves upon the directors of any such corpor- alton and their failure to assume it when such domination as that attri- buteA to the late Mr. Morgan is .dfs- closed Being a director of any cor porafson should mean what the name indicates and not the filling of the pu- Mttoa to he at the beck and call of one man who gives no reasons for his acts and answers no questions but demands that his viii be done
 Test&a0ny shows that a number of the directors, as we'll as Mr. Mellen questioned the wisdom of the pur- chases made by the New Haven and ths sxorsatafaf prices which were paid, buf none had sufficient courage to back up their opinions or even get at the basis of the operations which were andsr way. Yet millions of other pee- piss money, of which they were in sciaaHee, were allowed to disapaear and . sssFpAas gradually wiped osat ts be : come . debt.

New Haven, May 21-Before the ale crews go to Gales Ferry, and that they will do in another week, they are to be given a sendoff dinner in Me- morial hall by the New Haven Yale Alumni association. It is novel idea, one that has not been tried before, and the purpose is. of course, to show the oarsmen that the university and grad behind them. Coaches Nickalls and Armstrong will speak, as well as Prof, Eddie Reed and Philip Troup. and Col. Osborn will be toastmaster.
 The crews do not go up to New London this year under discourasing conditions, for in spite of repeated changes in the first boat it is felt that now there has been put together a smooth working, powerful eight, we'll skilled in the new watermanship. Naturally, the race on Saturday at Cornell will indicate what the first crew has been doing and can be ex- pected to do. At the same time Yale has not been training for this two- mile race. The results of the two races that Yale's second crew was entered in at Philadelphia were that in the junior race Yale lost from Harvard by half a length, with Pennsylvania. the Navy and Princeton next in place, and in the senior race two hours later, the same Harvard crew won, leaving Yale in fourth place In the Harvard boat
 
 tho Yale boats return to New Haven they have been beaten over an equal course by the first crew by three lengths.
 Coach Armstrong said this week that the general development of the crew is decidedly backward, because of the lateness of the spring, and the conse- quent lack of quiet water on the har- Dor. On account of this. the coaches have not considered it advisable to push the men very hard for speed in order that it may not interfere with their development for the Harvard race. The average weight of the crew will be somewhat below what it should be, said Coach Armstrong, and it will not match up with the sort of crew that Yale likes to put on the water, but as no material is available to in- crease the weight it will have to re- main where it is. At the same time he believes Yale will give Cornell an interesting fight.
