Molly Maaulres.

The Molly Magulres originated In
Ireland in 1S43 during the rent trou-
bles there. The name was derived
from Cornelius Mcguire, baron of In
niskillen. Molly was added because
most of their raids were made while
dressed in women's clothes. The
Pennsylvania society was organized
in 1866, and was composed for the
most part of Irishmen. For ten years
prior to 1877 it terrorized the inhabi-
tants of the coal mining sections of
Pennsylvania. Murders were COM
mitted and vast quantities of coal and
other property were destroyed. In
1875 their depredations extended
throughout the section and the nil
litia had to be called out to suppress
the disorders. After the militia had
been withdrawn a number of brutal
murders were committed, which re-
suited in an outburst Of public wrath
which forced arrests and the convic-
ton and execution of ten members of
the society. This put an end to the
rrorism.-Brooklyn Eagle.

The New Perfected calomeI That IL
Free from NauseatIng and Sallvat

Physicians or druggists will tel
you that the best thing in the world
for a cold, grippe or influenza, is
Calotabs, the perfected calomel, that
is free from nauseating and salivat-
ing effects. Doctors have learned
that other laxatives are uncertain and
unsatisfactory for cold and the
grippe, but that they can count on
Calotabs, the new calomel that has
all the liver benefits and none of the
sting, to thoroughly arouse the liver
and put the system in ideal condition
to throw off the cold and prevent in
fluenza and pneumonia.
The best time to take Calotabs is
at the first sign of cold If you
take it at the beginning you can cure

Thomas S. Martin

Thomas S. Martin represented
Virginia in the Senate for nearly
twenty-five years For a longer
period than that he was the master
of the Democratic party in Virginia.
The Old Dominion has had few
Senators of his type. He was not
an orator. He disliked public speak
ing. He was worker and organizer,
and rose to power partly through
his connection as counsel with one
of the largest railroad corporations
operating in the state. In that re-
spect he resembled Senator John S.
Barbour, whom he had helped to
defeat Malone and Riddleberger and
thus bring the "Readjuster' era in
Virginia politics to an end.
Mr. Martins position in Virginia
was much like Arthur P. Gorman's
in Maryland. Both were associated
with transportation interests and
both challenged an older and more
aristocratic order of leadership.
German conquered the "silk stock
ings" of Baltimore. Martin, in his
first campaign for the Senate, de
feated General Fitzhugh Lee. He
afIerward defeated Governor j.
Hoge Tyler and Governor A. J. Mon,
tague.
In the Senate he became a close
friend of Mr.. German and patterned
his activities largely after those of
the Maryland Senator. In time he
succeeded to Mr.. Germans place at
the head of the Appropriations Com
mittee and as the Democratic leader
He devoted himself, as Mr.. German
did, to the details of legislation
especially to the appropriation meas
ures. His work was not showy. But

value. AS chairman of the Senate

fact, done more harm than good at

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: 1t seems to noe to be rank
hypocrisy to give thanks TO Almighty
God for the blessings he has conferred
upon our country during the last year,
when we have yet TO take the first step
toward keeping faith with the millions
of souls sent TO the Almighty, long be-
fore their time, that we might enjoy
those blessings.
1t s hypocritical and ridiculous. TOO,
to thank the Almighty for the blessings
of peace when there is no peace and
while we refuse peace to our precious
dead, who died that we might enjoy
peace.
There is not, there cannot be and
ought not TO be peace for US or our
dead until the hell hounds who robbed
our boys of their youth and robbed US
of them shall have been sent before the
Almighty for final Judgment.
We owe 1T to ourselves and 10 our
precious dead TO see to it that not one
guilty Hun escapes. Hand them over.

Near Its End

The American delegation to the
peace conference is said to have
given notice that it will start for
home on December l. The British
delegates also seem to be anxious to
withdraw on that date.
1t is true that the work of the
conference is not over. Only the
German treaty is ready to go into
effect-into effect, that is, between
Germany and the Allied signatories
who have so far ratified it. The
treaty with Austria hasn't been rat
flied by a majority Of the major
powers. The treaty with Hungary
hasn't been signed yet. The Fiume
dispute and the disputes over Dal-
malta and the Banat are appar-
emily as far as ever from settle
ment. The eastern and southern
boundaries Of Poland haven't been
drawn. The status of the Russian
border states hasn't been determined.
Not even a beginning has been made
on a settlement with Turkey.
If the conference were still body
exerting real authority it's dissolu-
tion before it's work is finished might
excite alarm and protest. Yet it is
undeniable that in the last two or
three months the influence of the
Paris council has been rapidly frit-
tered away. 1t exercises to-day only
faint moral suasion. 1t has COM
mitted itself to decisions which it has
neither the will nor the power to en-
force.
Under such conditions it might
profitably give way to some other
body, representing the Allied powers
which can turn a fresh leaf. cut
