Every school boy knows that
Demosthenes used to make
speeches to the ocean, with his
mouth full of pebbles, so that he
could learn to speak distinctly and
loudly enough to be heard above
the roar of the breakers.
Senator Borah follows some
thing Of the same plan, although
he doesn't use the pebbles and he
has no impediment In his speech
as did Demosthenes. But he prac.
tees his oratory in advance, try
ing out both voice and gestures.
When Borah plans an important
speech, if the weather Is not good
he goes to the office allotted him
az chairman OF the senate foreign
relations committee. He locks the
door and throws the windows wide
open. so there'll be plenty of good
dir for his lungs. Alone in the
room he shouts his speech. perfect
Ing words and gestures. He walks
up and down the office, shouts and
whispers. When he Is satisfied with
the effect, he goes onto the senate
floor. Then, at the psychological
moment, he treats the senate to
oratory such as only q few of his
colleagues can approach.
II the weather is good, Borah
may decide to combine practice
with pleasure. He orders up his
horse and rides to Rock Creek
park.
There on the pleasant bride
path, as his mount canters along
beside the ripping brooks, he de-
livers his GRAFTON with only himself
and his horse to hear.
Borah, when alone, reads aloud
to himself, he feels that 1t tones
up his voice, and that he gets
much more out of the reading.

asked to rule on an important ques
ton to depositors in the savings de-

ceiver desires to know whether that
interest shall be paid, provided

state. Rather than act on one ques-
ton, at q time, the receivers have
been asked to group all their ques-
tons and file them at one time so
that the court may act on all ques-
lions at the same time.
Other questions raised by the To-
cal receiver is whether 1t Is to pay
the $S,964.4S tax laid against the
Merchants Trust company for saw
ings deposits The tax Is in accord
anoe with that laid. against all
trust companies in the state that

amount In question In the local case
Is laid as Of January /, 1892. The
receiver desires to know in the To-
cal case, whether the tax Is valid,
inasmuch as the bank suspended
