THE ERUDITE MIR. LODGE,
 AND SOME OTHER SOLONS

s This is the birthday of three dis tinguished members of the United States Congress-Senator Henry Ca bot Lodge of Massachusetts, most erudite of So1ons, who is sixty-sfx to- day; Senator William Alden Smith of Michigan, who has a presidential bee and who passes his ffty-seventh mile stone and Congressman Robert Lee Henry of Texas, candidate for the Senate, who is ffty-two.
 Senator Lodge has served continu- ously in the Senate since 1893 and was previously a member of the lower House. The most learned of Ameri- can lawmakers is an A. B., ILL. B., and Ph. D. of Harvard, and holds hon. versailles. As the ranking minority member of the Foreign Relations Committee, Senator Lodge has played an important part in recent events. In his campaign speeches he has bitterly attacked the policies of the present administration, and has declared that no administration, except Buchanan's, has been so injurious. The Massa- chusetts statesman has severely criti- cised President Wilson for not taking firm stand with Germany in defense of neutral rights immediately follow ing the violation of Belgium.
 Senator William Alden Smith, who announced ms cand1dacy TOT the Re- publican presidential nomination nearly. a. year ago, was born in Dowa- giac, Mich.s May 12, 1859. Senator Smith is a conspicuous example of the Self-made man. He started his ca reer as a neWsboy and telegraph messenger in Grand Rapids. His parents were so poor that they were able to give him but a. common school education, and not a great deal of that. At the age of twenty, Governor Rich appointed him a page in the Michigan House of Representatives. and that gave him his first impetus to- ward a political career. He studied law and was admitted to the bar in 1883, beginning practice in Grand Rapids. Since then he has amassed a fortunes is the owner of a prosper ous newspaper, and is sufficiently far advanced in politics as to entertain presidential ambitions. Senator Smith attained international fame as chair man of the Titanic Inyestig gating Conn~ mittee, when his ignorance of nautt- cal matters aroused great mfrth.
 Congressman seBob'' Henry, of Grand Old Texas, has been a member of the House since 1897, and last year he launched a campaign to succeed Senator Culberson. He has been an active rival of ex-Governor Co1quitt, another senatorial candidate, for the Texas German vote, which, is very large Although a Democrat, MT. Henry has not always upheld the Pres- ident's foreign policies, and a few weeks ago he delivered an address favoring an embargo on war mater%s ia1s.

TAMMANY.

The first meeting of the secret so- ciety of St. Tammany, or Columbian Order, the parent of the famous po-
 itica1 organization which has so long dominated New York city political ac- tivities, was held 127 years ago today, May .12, 17S9, and the date was long celebrated by. the Tammany chief tains and their followers. William Morley an upho1sterer, was the 1ead- CT in the organization of the society, which took its name from an Indian chief, Tamanend, of the Delaware tribe, who was greatly honored by the redskins his supposedly superior wisdom and virtue. The first Tam many Hall was built in 1911, on Park Row. but in 1887 another and finer was rearer in Fourteenth street Or iginalIy> the society was founded fol social and benevolent purposes but from the first. the men of Tammany took an active part in politics, and they were largely instrumental in car rying New York for Thomas Jeffer- son in 1900.

CALL STEEL CARS"

A
 bany. N. Y.9
 Why don't the .s railroads imne- diate1y replace all their wooden pass enger coaches with aII-steel cars {? Why isn't there some statute, court order or decree of a commission compelling them to retire the wooden cars immediately? We'll, dear critic, if you happen to have $528,787,1oO in your upper right hand vest pocket. just hand it over to the railroads, and they will doubtless be delighted to comply with your wishes That is what it would cost to replace the wooden cars with steel.
 'On December 31 last, there were SLIPS passenger cars in service on the railroads of the United States. Of these 41,382 were wooden cars. Of the others, 4,286 were all steel. and 6,060 had steel underframes Within three years 6,744 wooden cars have been retired from ] service and of these 2s130 were retired last year. At this rate, it would take twenty years to get rid of all the wooden cars, but progress will be accelerated as time passes. For exam there were in 1909 only 629 aIl-steel cars while now there are more than 14OOO Last year 1,25ON aIl-steel cars were acquired and only ninety-six of wood. while of 1sO94 cars under construc- tion. January 1 last, only three were of wood.
 Annual interest charges on the sum needed to replace the wooden cars with steel would amount, at five per cent, to $26,439, ,355 The rail- roads are doing what they can, but they cannot do everything at once Sometimes the public forgets the inn nensity of their pro b1ems.''
