"We waste too much time talking
about the labor agitator," the speaker
said. "He can only be recognized as

THE TEST OF A MAN

The test of man is the fight he makes
The grit that he daily shows;
The way he stands on his feet and takes
Fate's numerous bumps and blows;
coward smile when there is no fear,
When nothing his progress bars;
But it takes a to stand up and cheer
While some other fellow stars.
1t isn't the victory after all
But it's the fight that brother makes
The man who's driven to the wall,
Still stands up erect and takes
The blows that fate with his head held high,
Bleeding and bruised and pale
Is the man who will win the by and by,
For he isn't afraid to fail
It's the bumps you get and the jolts you get,
And the shocks that your courage stands
The hours Of sorrow and and vain regret
The prize that escapes your hands,
That test your mettle and prove your worth;
1t isn't the blows that you deal

Dor of Karului was estimated today

island at $1,50O,O0O.

friends were allayed last night when
they returned from a weekend fish
ing trip safely.

prisoners who appeared in the
Yonkers police court yesterday
morning were permitted to go
to their homes because it was
too cold to keep them in the

furnace which heats the Jail
building has proved inadequate
and yesterday the fires were out,
and from every occupied cell
came loud complaints. Judge
Boote paroled all the prisoners
with the exception Of one, held
on q felony charge, who was
transferred to more comfortable
quarters at White Plains.
Until the cold snap breaks all
prisoners held on light charges
will be paroled, the Judge said.

PUSH
MERGER
BILL
Senator King Declares Ham
mer Measure Offers Practic-
able Solution.

The Hammer street railway
merger bill today was endorsed by
Senator William III. King of Utah,
and a final effort will be made to
enact this legislation in the clos
ing four weeks of Congress.
Senator King declared that the
Hammer measure offers the only
practicable solution of the trac-
ton issue in Washington. He OPP
poses the Ball bill which passed
the Senate last September and
which is designed to force a con-
solidation of the w. r. and E..
and the Capital Traction Com
pany by imposing a heavy excess
profits tax on the latter.
Will Absorb Property.
Senator King said, in part:
1.-THE Ball bill was designed for
the sole object of authorizing the
dissolution of the Potomac Electric
Power Company and the absorption
Of its property by the w. r.. and
z. Co. The real purpose of the bill
is to permit the confusion Of cleo
trio lighting and street car traction
accounts. and to increase the value
or consolidated properties as securi-
ties for the issue of more bonds.
Interests Won't Delay.
1.-THE bill was prepared by the
W. r. & e. interests, which, under
no possible legislation, can finance
the consolidation of the street car
companies. Their plan is to hold
out for terms that will arrange the
perpetuation of its stock jobbery,
passed and prospective, and to I'M
load it's capital obligations upon the
public if a merger is finally forced
by legislation.
Congressman Hammers substi-
tute offers a practical and effective
solution of this problem, and now
that he is pressing it for considera-
ton, the interests which want delay
have come forward and are again
urging the passage of the impossi-
bic Ball bill in order to prevent any
thing effectual being accomplished
ut this session of Congress"
