that she did not. in one way or
another, worship her God; and
during her last severe illness Of
over .iIree veeks she murmured
not, Tut sang several sacred
songs, one uf which was. 20

The "Herald" Undertakes . New
Line OF Business.

The appearance OF the familiar leg
end ut Shines for All" on the main
headline Of our n~eighbor the Herald
has occasloned some mild interest In
this quarter.
At first 1t seemed another manifes-
tntion Of Mr.. BENEFITS well known
Partially for the maxim that imita-

But THE SuN shines and the Herald

the sense Of THE Suns shining.
Then occurred the question OF copy
right for this verbal device has been
the recognized property Of THE SrN
since the beginning of 1884. that Is to
say for about eighty-three years.
There Is no need. however, of con.
sldering questions OF complimentary
intent, Of invasion Of legal rights,
or of violation Of professional ethics.

the putting of officers of the Depart
ment Of Justice at the disposition Of

tunate incident. 1t would not only
outrage the American idea Of Impair

so far MS campaign work Is concerned,

Why Not ChiropodIsts for the Army.

To THE EpfroT or THE SuN-Sir. Chi
ropody means the science Of the hands
and feet. For a. great many years CHI
ropodists have been attached to the Ger
man and Japanese armies. Tire chiropo-
dists keep the feet OF the soldiers in
good order. consequently pedal troubl,
seldom break out among the japanese
or German soldiers. Since the beginning
OF the European war c~hiropodists have
been assigned to the med.ca, corps OF
the British and French armies. DR..
Ernest c. S~tanaback Of Newark, prasi-
dent OF the National Association OF Chi
~ropodists. has offered t. organic. a
chirupody corps FOR service In the medl-
cal corps OF the United States regular
army. Thus far the offer has not been
accepted, although We read In the papers
that oldiers on the border are having
trouble with their feet. The me!ical
stan il already ~overworked and not
having specialized in pedal complaints
they cannot treat them as wei as a
o~hiropodist.
The care OF the feet is fully as i'm
rortant for "A soldier as the care OF
his eyes and teeth. consequently there
should be chlropod SITS assigned 10 the
Medical Corps OF the army and navy.

As to the New ScctIOnaIIsm m,

The solemn dissertations about the
new political map Of the country
which the election returns have
wrought-the West and South lined
up against the East, and so on-,lo
not take account of what happened
In 1892, the year OF the Cleveland
landslide. The Democratic candidate
reduced Republican strongholds in
the West, ~confounding the party
prophets, but no me talked OF n new
scctiSaiism then.
Mr.. CLEVELAND won eight OUT of
nine of the electoral votes OF Cali.
fornia and carried Illinois. Indiana
and Wisconsin and picked up five
electoral votes in Michigan and one
in Ohio. Arizona, New Mexico, Okla
homa and Utah were not States In
those days, and women voted only
in Wyoming and Colorado. GROVER
CLEVELAND carried neither OF those
States. Under the Populist banner
Of WEAVER in that election were
ranged the States Of Colorado. Idaho.
Nevada AMI North Dakota, and lie
received nine electoral votes in Kan.
sas and one in Oregon.
Four years later WILLIAM ]. BRYAN
carried Colorado, Idaho, Kansas, Mon
tnna, Nebraska, Nevada. South Du-
kota, Utah, Washington and Wyo.
ming, hut he carried none of the
Republican strongholds in the West
that Mr.. CLEVELAND captured or
which gave him scattered electoral
votes. After Mr.. RRYAN's picturesque
campaign there was indeed some talk
about the political Kaleidoscope as
indicating %sectionalism but when he
made his second campaign In 1000
Kansas, Nebraska. South Dakota,
Utah, Washington and Wyoming re-
turned to the Republican column. The
new s~ectionnllSm was only n mirage.
And so 1t Is likely TO prove in the
present instance. The practical ana
lyst will rather turn to the women's
vote In many Of the Western States,
and no doubt he will make some in.
tcresting deductions.

The cable reports from Honolulu
thnt the former Queen of Hawaii is
near death.
The late LYDIA KAMAKAEHA, Queen
LiLiuokALANi, grasped the sig.
%nlficance Of the events that led to
her abdlcation and the inclusion of
Hawaii as a Territory OF the United
States. Her insipid autobiography.
published in 1898, reveals not the
slightest comprehension of the forces
that were at play. not so much in the
island paradise of which she was
ruler as In the larger world on the
shores Of the Pacific and beyond. Had
the rise Of Japan among the nations
preceded the extension OF the United
states to the western seaboard Ha.
wall might to-day be n japanese prov.
ince; 1t could not have retained Its
independence.
II Is Interesting to speculate on the
twists and turns of history. PERRY
did not visit Japan until 1853. Gold
had been discovered In California four
years earlier. What a difference we
should see in the Pacific to-day had
communication between Japan and
the western world been established a
half century earlier. After getting
along very comfortably with no laws
other than the Ten Commandments,
Hawaii received n constitution in
1910. Three years later one Captain
PArIET demanded that the islands
declare their allegiance to Grent Brit.
ain, and this was done. But the Brit
ish claim was abandoned In n fcw
months. What II 1t had been upheld?

COST AND PRICE OF MILK.
The Profits and Percentage Of Profits
In the Case Of the Middleman.

To I'll EDITOR OF THE SuN-Sr. A

not long ago to the public for support
In its effort to maintain the scale OF
prices 1t has fixed. laid great stress on
the fact Gf 1t he a fact. which It prob
ably isl that it, the company. makes a

can be content with a less profit than
that. The costly system Of handling and
distribution. established and kept up so
admirably as this company has estab-
lished and does keep II up. certainly de-
mands a reasonable margin OF profit.
No one ought to object to paying 1t.
But Is a quarter of a cent a quart
reasonable. or is 1t exorbitant?
One Of the ~oriclals OF that company
said that 1t was not 'humanly possible
for his company 10 increase its expenses
BY a large fraction OF a cent on each
quart without charging the public q
whole cent u quart more. In other
words. the company, II 1t comedies what

must make a stu larger percentage OF
profit from the consumer.
A quarter OF a cent! The phrase Is
a taking one and calls for reiteration.
A quarter OF a cent profit every DAY on
capital that Is turned over daily amounts
TO about 81 n year. II IL no great won
der that this company has accumulated
ONE thirty millions Of dollars by turning
over its originally small investment daily
at a profit that aggregates 100 per cent.
per annum. Aproft OF one-tenth Of one
quarter of a cent a quart would lie a
larger margin that the railroads make.
