‘Government Does Not Need More/Power, but Better Distribution. | aaa ‘SHILOH, Tenn., April 10. ~—Gov. John A. Johnson of Minnesota, speaking at the dedication of that State’s monument at Shiloh battlefield today, deplored the action of the United States Supreme Court in the Minnesota and North Caro- lina railroad rate law cases. He said the principle of Federal con- trol over state affairs, established | by this decision, would radically change the and He de- clared the decision to be “one of the unhappy incidents in the history of our American system of government, would retard national progress.

Referring at the outset of his speech to. the Minnesota soldiers slain at Shiloh, to whose memory the monument its dedi- cated, he quoted the closing sentences 40f Ldncoln’s Gettysburg speech,. ending’ with the words “that government of the! - people, by the people and forthe people _ shall not perish from the earth.” Protests Against Bureaucracy. He then. said in part: “Shall we not teday con Fate for the further perpetuation of the principles of _American liberty, and a constitutional form of government, purchased at the cost of the blood of patriots? “In this hour, when there seems to be a disposition to depart from the estab- lished forms, when there seems to be a desire on the part of these in authority to abide in a central bureaucracy, rather than in a representative democracy, it becomes you and me to protest against any departure whatever from the gov- ernment which came to us from the con- gtitutional convention of 1787, and the amendments which have been made to it by specific will of the people. “The marvelous foresight of the fath- ers of this country in framing the Constitution of the United States is shown by the fact that, in spite of all the changes which ,have occurred - industrial and economic conditions, in spite of the unexpected expansions of the country, been found sufficiently flexible to meet every emergency which has arisen.

WHITESIDE, Mo., April 10.—It’s a poor day when Frank Ryan can’t put away from one to two dozen eggs at breakfast, but even Frank himself is a trifle elated over his feat of this morning, when he ate 38.

A stirring argument of yesterday was by Elder T. W. Chadburn, who sald: “Some marriages are worse than hell. There are many conditions to be met In the married state which no set of laws can govern. To condemn a man to live forever in a condition worse than hell, is not right or just on the part of the church. Unless we have a divine rev- elation, we should allow divorce on oth- er than scriptural grounds.”

The bank had 3800 depositors, with an aggregate of $337,000 to their credit. Its py loans amountéd: to $350,000, or $17,000 Amore than the deposits. Says Directors Were Surprised. “I am satisfied the directors were not aware of the critical condition of the bank,” said Mr. Cook. ‘‘Follow- ing an inspection of its books about ten days ago, I told the directors of my suspicions. They laughed at me. ‘Why this bank is all right,’ they said. They seemed to regard my warning as a sort of a joke. “But when I called their attention to érie paper after another, ‘which I con- sidered worthless, or at least worth muth less than its face value and cer- tainly inadequate as collateral for the loan made wupen it, they opened their eyes to the real situation. “They remarked then that they hadn't thought things looked so squally. I gave them time to produce better se- curity for the loans. This they were un- able to do and there was nothing left for the Secretary of State’s office to do but close the bank.” St. Louis bankers who are familiar with the institution’s affairs say the depositors should realize 80 cents on the dollar. It became known Friday that the Barnes Medical Coliege is heavily in- debted to the bank. Dr. Pinckney French, president of the bank, also is head of the Barnes college. This loan was obtained some time ago and Mr. Cook thinks the collateral of- fered is ample to protect it. University Refused Offer. Recently the State University au- thorities refused to accept the Barnes Medical College as a gift because of the indebtedness against it. David R. Francis, who is a member of the University Board of Curators, said the University regarded the of- fer of the Barnes faculty as unusual, but they refused to consider it until a debt in the shape of bonds approxi- mating $30,000 or $40,000 had been cleared. Concerning this feature of the bank’s affairs, Mr. Cook said: “‘I have been in- formed that there is a mortgage of $90,006 against the Barnes Medical Col- lege. It is in the form of a deed of frison and Lawton avenues, whic been represented to be worth nearly $200,000. “The collateral with which the Olive Street Bank loan is secured is part of the mortgage recorded against the Barnes College.” When the Missouri-Lincoln Trust Co. began to wind up its business last Oc- tober the Olive Street Bank had loans aggregating $120,000, secured by Missou- ri-Lincoln stock.

The remaining $60,000 worth is valued by Examiner Cook at less than $20,000, showing a loss to the Olive Street Bank on this item alone of $40,000. The report being prepared by Ex- aminer Cook for Secretary of State Swanger shows that many of the loans now classed as good may be difficult to collect when they mature. ~ Following the receipt of this report, Mr. Swanger will request the Attorney- General to apply to the Cireult Court for a receiver for the bank.

OTHER WOMAN SOUGHT

She Ran Away From Scene When Bearded Slayer Took His Departure.

Frank Metz of 2741 Eads avenue Fri- May afternoon identified Mrs. Schrader as the woman he saw with Dr. Voerst- er at the time of the Killing.

Mrs. Johanna Schrader, a handsome widow of 40, is now the center of inter- est in the efforts which are being made by the police to clear the mystery of the death of Reese Bell, whom Dr. En- gelbert Voerster Jr. is accused of hay- ing shot at Dolman street and Chou- teau avenue. Mrs. Schrader ‘and Dr. Voerster are cousins. Friends of both know that for a long time they have been on the friendliest terms, and that Dr: Voerster has taken an interest in Mrs. Schrader’s affairs. Four years ago, when Mrs. Schrader lived at 4062 Cook avenue, it was re- ported to the police that she had mys- teriously disappeared. Detectives and others who went to the Schrader home found Dr. Voerster there. Returned As He Said. He assured them that there was no cause for alarm over the disappearance of Mrs. Schrader. “My cousin has simply gone away for a little trip, and she will be back in a week,’’ he said. Ten days later Mrs. Schrader returned to S.t Louis and told her friends she had been South on a steamboat. — Mrs. Schrader said to a Post-Dispatch reporter at her home, an hour vefore her arrest, that she did not know who was swith Dr. Voerster when Bell was killed. Friday, after her release on a $1000 bond, she would not repeat this state- ment. “There {8s no. use to question me,’’ she then said. “I have been ad- vised not to talk. She Asked His Advice. “Dr. Voerster has not been stopping at my house. I sent for him to ask what I should do if the detectives in- sisted on taking me to Police Headquar- ters.’’ Mrs. Schrader, Dr. Voerster, Mrs. Bal- ley and all of the witnesses to the shoot- ing were summoned to appear before am grand jury Friday afternoon and ce each other. Dr. Voerster was at Mrs. Schrader’s home when detectives went there to ar- rest her Thursday afternoon. Dr. Voerster Protests. While the detectives were trying to induce her to accompany them, Dr Voerster steprod to the telephone and called up Chief of Detectives Smith. “Chief,”’ he said, ‘‘I want to give you some professional advice. This woman is ill. Her lips are blue now. If you take her from this house, you will do so over my protest.’’ “Send one of my men to the phone,” said the Chief. When Detective Rogers that talk. here at “Don't listen Bring Mrs. rs) °, to any. of Schrader down Mrs. Schrader then consented to ac- company the o:ficers, but she begged for time in which to take a bath and change her clothing. Daughter Lives With Her. This request was granted. Dr. Voerster remained at the Schrader home when Mrs. Schrader was taken away. Mrs. Schrader is 40 years old, and is the daughter of John Vogel, a retired nierchant of 20 Benton place. She has five children, the oldest a daughter of 22, She is a blonde, with light hair, rud- dy complexion and large gray eyes. While the police believe they have made no mistake in arresting Mrs. Schrader, she does not answer the de- scription given by Mrs. A. J. Burdick as that of the woman who fied past her restaurant with the slayer of Reese Bell. Description Haraly Fits. Mrs. Burdick says the woman whom she saw was small and dark, seemed rather homely and was plainly dressed in a blue cloth suit and a black hat without flowers or colored ribbons. Mrs. Schrader is larger than the woman described by Mrs. Burdick, and could not be .considered “plain” either in face, figure or dress. Mrs. Hattie Bailey, who was with Bell when he was killed, said Friday that a photograph of Mrs. Schrader which was shown her did not look like the woman who was with the slayer of Bell when the shot was fired. “But it was so dark,”: said Mrs. Bai-

By Wire From the Washington Bu- reau of tne Post-Dispatch. WASHINGTON, April 10.—Comparing the campaign for prohibition to the in- tolerance of the days of witchcraft, Representative Bartholdt of St. Louis today began an eight-hour speech be- fore the House Judiciary Committee, at- tacking all bills attempting to give pro- hibition states Federal help. Bartholdt today discussed only the legal phases of the bills. At later hearings he will ar- gue that prohibition is bad policy and injustice. Mr. Bartholdt argued that the states do not need Federal help to control the liquor traffie. “They haye ample power, if they will enforce their laws,” said he. “You wiil notice that no attorneys-general or oth- er State officers have been here asking for Federal legislation. They do not come, because they realize that the fault lies in non-enforcement of State laws.

But he argued that it was un- constitutional to admit the liquor as & proper commodity in interstate com- merce and then stop it at lines of pro- hibition states, and not at other lines. The Littlefield bill is the chief of those attacked by Mr. Bartholdt. It provides that prohibition states shall be authorized to take control of a shipment of liquor in interstate commerce as soon as it crosses the State border. This will

SISTER TELLS OF QUARRELS I PERCE'S. HOME Wife Hurled Manicure Set at Millionaire, Divorcee Testifies. ~ ADOPTION MAKES BOY OF 7 HEIR TOONE MILLION John Sims, Mrs. Grace A. Leathe’s Grandson, Le- gally Becomes Son.

Mrs. Mary Carlin, Henry J. Pierce's sister, who is a divorcee, was the chief witness for him Friday in his suit for divorce from his wife, Violetta. Pierce is a traction millionaire, and is interested in several St. Louis ecom- panies, Mrs, Carlin told of Mrs. Pierce's atti- tude toward her husband’s business achievements. “Once when I congratulated Henry on his successes,” Mrs. Carlin said, “Mrs. Pierce interrupted and said that he didn’t deserve any credit—that he was stupid, like all the rest of his fam- lly, and that whatever success he had achieved was due to her. Jealous of Daughter. “On another occasion, when Henry had returned from a trip to Europe, he and Mrs, Pierce and I were out walk- ing in Buffalo, and he remarked that in all Europe he had not seen any little | girl as beautiful as his daughter Vioe- letta, And Mrs. Pierce said, ‘That is the way with you—always praising Vio- letta, when I am more ap and cleverer than all of you Mrs. Carlin told also of the reception Mrs. Pierce gave Pierce's gift of a manicure set for Christmas in 1886. She said Pierce presented it with the re- mark that he was ‘“‘not feeling very rich," and was sorry he couldn’t give something better. erce threw the manicure set at him and it hit him in the chest,” Mrs, Carlin said. “She said she didn't see why he couldn’t sive her jewelry or something decent, and that she'd rather have nothing at. all than the manicure set.’’ Definition of Respe:>t. Mrs. Pierce told the children, Mrs. Carlin said, that their father had no authority over them and that they need only obey her. On cross-examination, Fred W. Leh- mann, Mrs. Pierce’s lawyer, asked Mrs. Carlin if Mrs. Pierce wasn’t a good mother. Mrs. Carlin said, ‘‘She certainly isn't my ideal.’ She didn’t teach the children to respect their father, for one thing, the witness added in explanation. “Don’t they love him?’’ Lehman asked. “Yes, I’ suppose they do,’ said Mrs. Carlin, and when asked for a definition of the difference between love and re- spect she said, ‘‘Love is a strong natural affection. Respect is an acquired defer- ence and admiration.” Lehman tried to make Mrs. Carlin say she had come to St. Louls and estab- lished a home at 4507 McPherson avenue in order that Pterce could come here and sue for divorce, but she did not ad- mit this. Mrs. Carlin testified that she was di- vores from her husband in New York in 1 Mrs. Grace A.'Leathe, widow of Sam- uel H, Leathe, millionaire, has adepted 7-year-old John Morgan Sims ef Col- linsville, her grandson, who at her death will receive one-third of her estate, new estimated at $3,000,000, The lucky youngster is the son of Dr. John Morgan Sims Sr., a prominent phy- siclan. The adoption papers were filed Thuraday at Edwardsville. Mrs. Leathe has two daughters—Mrs. Enola Sims, mother of the adopted grandson, and Miss Luoilie Wilson, who is @ daughter of Mrs, Leathe’s first husband, Mr, Leathe died a year ago at the old mansion at 1413 Locust street, which he refused to leave when the district was given over to boarding houses and a neem theater.

Smoke pouring out of a second-story window of a house at Leffingwell and Lucas avenues Friday morning caused two negroes to turn in a fire alarm. When the fire department got to the corner smoke was still rolling from the window and the firemen rushed up the stairs and burst into the room. They found no fire, but the rdom was full of dense, suffocating smoke of a pecullar odor. A search revealed a pan of ,burning grease in the oven, and grease was pouring from every crack in the stove. The owner of the premises had forgotten the grease, and, after starting the fire, had gone away. WHAT C. CAUSES HEADACHE. pte!

lirait its power as to prevent the recur rence of the error. “Very recently there has come from the highest tribunal tn the land a de- cision of vital interest and concern to the American people, because it has ©s- tablished a principle, as stated by ane member of the court, which would ‘work a radical change in our govern- mental system and would inaugurate @ new era in the American judicial sys- tem and in the relations of the na- tional and State governments. “It would’ enable the subordinate Fed- eral courts to supervise and control the official action of the states as though they were dependencies or provinces.

What it needs today is so to distribute the privileges under the government that all citizens will have equal opportunity. America has been called the land of opportunity. But American opportunity should not mean a granting of special privileges to any class, but should afford all alike the means for culture, education, prosperity and contentment.”’

Tom Conlon preliminary to booking the pris- oner. “Suspected of Callahan. “See what he’s got,’’ said Conlon. Callahan dug his hand into an outside pocket of Brown's overcoat and brought forth a handkerchief, pair of kid gloves and a much-worn prayer book. Tossing the articles on the Sergeant’s desk the detective turned to another outside overcoat pocket and fished —_ a prayer book, pair of dirty gloves and an old handkerchief, Callahan smiled at Conlon as he threw the articles on the pile. He next searched one of the outside pockets of the inner coat. This time he brought forth a pair of gloves, a prayer book and a handkerchief. When Callahan got through searching Brown the following articles were lying on Conlon’s desk: Nine prayer books, 14 lead pencils, two pocket combs, 12 sets of prayer beads, a pair of scissors, a clothes brush, match hox, three pairs of gloves, five handker hiefs, a razor, a soap box, two pocketknives, a bunch of keys, seven street car transfers of ancient date, five memorandum books, three periodi- cals, a newspaper, an old watch, enough advertising goods to cover the walls of a good-sized room, souvenir nentonstinn a dozen letters, a meal ticket, a rubber ‘“‘sucker,”” two fountain pens, a small cross, an umbrella and a bottle of nerve medicine. shoplifting,”’ replied Search Not Ended. “Have you a junk dealer’s license?’ asked Conlon, Se Star eee ees.

Miss Coretta, attired in a green silk dinner gown, with flowing train, gave each guest a smile, and enthusiasm ran high when the little woman, escorted by Lord Robert, in evening clothes and decorated with a diamond the size of a pea, paraded the length of the banquet ‘table between the great silver candela- ‘bra and ferns and flowers. While the ice cream, which was fash- foned in the forms of animals to be seen in the Ringling menageries, was being ‘served, two uniformed waiters, bearin @ great birthday cake, crow ned with 1 glowing candles, entered the room and get the confectioner’s masterpiece be- fore the plate of Miss Coretta. ' Speeches galore from those gathered about the board completed the evening’s ‘entertainment. The freaks added inter- ‘est to the occasion by giving bits of . their life history.

HARRIMAN PLANS JO BELT WORLD WITH lS LINES Acquisition of the Erie Points to Design for a Railway Empire.

AFTER SIBERIAN ROAD

With Steamship Connections, He Would Thus Nearly Girdle the Globe.

CHICAGO, April 10.—The acquisition of the Irie Railroad by E. H. Harriman and associates, announced to have oc- curred in the refunding of the interest notes on that line yesterday, is ac- cepted by Chicago magnates as evidence of Harriman’s consummation of the first part of his plan to build a world empire of railroads. Harriman’s Chicago associates confirm a& report, which has substantial verifica- tion from Wall street sources, to the effect that the Vanderbilt, Goelet, Astor and Standard’Oil interests in New York, and Illinois Capitalists represented by John J. Mitchell, are marshaled under the Harriman banner. Their purpose is ‘to gain control of-the American railroad system and acquire as much interest as ssible in the Transsiberian road, built y the Russian Government. This connection of continental lines with American-European’ steamships centrolied by J. Pierpont Morgan and his associates, and the Seattle-Japanese steamers owned by Harriman, will es- tablish a belt line around the world. Control of Two Continents. With the Illinois Central tapping the Untted States transversely in its rich- est sections, this will give the corgbina- tion control of the principal railroads of Asia and the American continent. The continental American systems now controlled by the Harriman forces are. the Erie, Union Pacific, Southern Pacific and Illinois Central, and the Harriman and Morgan steamship com- panies. Rockefeller and the Russian Govern- ment are the principal factors in the Trassiberian road, now being extended to Bering’ Straits: from Vladivostok. With ue great. stretch of ra] and steamship routes through the wheat areas, tundra and mining. regions, . in- dustrial and commercial centers, the two largest countries of the world wii! be under the contro] of the railway min- ister of Russia and a coterie of Anieri- can capitalists. Belt Line for World. With the world belt line.in operation & passenger may travel from any Ger- man or English port‘across the Atiantic, cross the American continent, go from Seattle or San Wrancisco to. Bering Straits, and thence to Viadi¥ostok- ~with- af days. Over 386,000 miles ‘of rails, 10, miles of steamship routes and 000,000 in enpital are the pussibilf- ef the great combination. .«, Those who have heard Harriman, {is- cuss his ambitions are not gurprise:l at the immense project. They declare all his manipulations in America andthe rowing contro] of ‘great interests in ussia by Rockefeiler and Morgan are but steps in the consummation of the entire plan. In ‘bwler to make the route encircle the world, it wil only be necessary to make traffic arrangements with steam- ship companies already under the influ- ence of the promoters for the carriage of freight.und passengers from V ladi- vostok and the Orient, either through the Suez Canal or around Africa to the starting point tn Europe. MINERS’ PRESIDENT EXPECTS 47,000 WILL GIVE UP STRIK: Ohio Union Head Says It Is Prob- able Settlement Will Come Tuesday. “ COLUMBUS, O., April 10.—‘“It is probable that the 47,000 miners who are now idle in Ohio will resume work about April 15 or 16, following the conference of the miners and operat- “ ors at Toledo next Tuesday,” declared William Green, State president of the miners today. He added: “It Is probable’ that the’ operators and the miners will reach an agree- ment at Toledo and that the old wage scale that was in effect up to April 1 will be readopted. President Green said the miners and operators’ had had several confer- ences and there Seemed to be no hes- itancy on the part of the operators to sign the agreement. tie

NEVER KNOWN TO FAIL Enough “Makings” and a Lit- tle Patience Will Effect a Permanent Cure.

: Fell Off the Wagon? Smoke a Cigarette CHICAGO, April 10. BRAHAM BAUERS, City Proba- tion Officer, is the discoverer of the cigarette cure for the drink habit. He told the stud- ents of the University of Chicago about it in an address yester- day. “Tf the inmates of the County Jail are allowed to smoke cigar- _ettes they do not crave liquor,” he said. “The officers in charge_ of the jails and. police stations know this, and whenever a pris- oner craves liquor the authori- ties give him cigarettes. That stops the appetite for- whisky.” | Carbolic acid is efficatious, but it’s

A man walked into ‘an,Olive street sa- loon, -hurried up to the bar, folled a cigarette, scratched a match, blew the smoke in the bartender’s face and then walked away, wiping his lips. “Put that one on my tab,”” he said, as he hurried out of the door. When the bartender had picked him- self up and brushed off his clothes, he yelled to the free lunch man; “Telephone the police that some- body’s escaped from Arsenal street. I'll go out and borrow a gun. Keepthe doors locked until I get back.’’ But if you hap- pen to be in a saé loon when two men line up and onesays: “Wnhat’ll it be?” and the other answers: “I guess I'll take the makings,” and the first man remarks: ‘“‘Make mine a package of Sweets,’”’ you need’nt crawl under a table. They’re simply taking the cure. Smoking Out the Demon. It comes from Illinois, where, having done everything else possible to harass Demon Rum, they’re now blowing cig- arette smoke at him. An inmate of Chi- cago.made the discovery. He says that if you have an inclination to accumyp- late a souse, all you have to do is to smoke yourself out of it. The Christopher Columbus who crossed the sea of booze and discov- ered the cigarette is Probation Offi- cer Abraham Bauers. He got the idea out of jail. It seems a prisoner asked for a drink, and they gave him a cigar- ette. He never asked for liquor again. He was cured. So now, accord- ing to Bauers, the authorities are playing smoke rings-around- the- rosy cup that queers in every police station in Chi- cago. Any man who wants a front,seat on the water wagon Can accomplish it by going to Chicago and getting himself arrested. He can play both ends against the miiddle. Two or three .drinks = of Chicago whisky will land any ambitious man in jail. There they will give him a sack of tobacco, a book of cigarette papers and a box of matches, and put him to work. It .is their theory that where there’s so much smoke there must be less firewater. Any Kind Will Do. Any brand will do, The sort known to the consumer as “tailor-made” is as effective as the one he rolls himself. If he finds the little reformers now on the market not to his taste, he will not have to wait long. Conceding that the Chi- cago Way is a success, cigarette fac- tories and new brands will be as nu- merous as adjectives in a Roosevelt message. If there’s a saloon left in St. Louis by that time, when you fall off the water wagon next Jan. 2, you may find signs like this on the barroom walls: “Try our Harem Rye cigarette papers; mel- low a8 moonlight,” or ‘Always ask for Three-Bagger, the cigarette without a headache.” And the philanthropist whom you've embraced on ‘past Sunday nights after he whispers, “I've got Something in my pocket,” leads you up an alley and pro- duces the bottle. will meet you in the future with the same comforting assur- ance, pilot you to a dark place and offer you a cigarette holder. It will cease to be “Let's have a smile;” it will be “Let's say good-by.”’ A Difference of Opinion. . Louls saloon keepers differ as to ukinas cigarettes will or will not cure the drink habit. .

GOV. FOLK’S GOOD FORTUNE. The Republican organization in St. Louis is fully committed to an assault upon the validity . Of the new direct primary law. It has usually “happened that efforts to defeat such laws on technical grounds have proceeded from repre- tatives of majority parties who did not relish their loss of power. In this case a minority ma- chine is the complainant. ‘It would not be surprising if «. law so long and $0 complicated and covering so much ground were found on critical judicia’ examination to contain - | Some serious defects. By close construction and “by taking account of the letter rather than the , | spirit of the enactment the Supreme Court may be moved to invalidate it, even for reasons that would hardly be regarded as vital. _. The interesting point just now is that an im- ' #portant committee of one great party .has under- _ ‘taken to nullify the popular will, and that Gov. Folk, representing another great party, serves Rotice on all concerned that if the judgment shall i$ ote pene the law he will immediately summon Legislature for the purpose of enacting an- other one. Other states have had difficulty in meeting the ‘tines of the courts in the matter of primary leg- : /Mstation, but it is not recorded that any of the | who have busied themselves in finding tional objections thereto have profited -‘gauch by their industry. The most powerful sec- tion of the Republican machine in Illinois has this reform for years, but it has been ed to yield at last. ' To be identified once more and at this inter- juncture with a great popular aspiration upon right and justice must be highly ble to Gov. Folk. - PERSONAL LIBERTY UNDER A CLOUD. } The militant Democrats of Madison County, ‘Winois, menaced on all sides by the total ab- mtinence, prohibition and local option forces, Mave adopted resolutions indorsing personal lib- ‘erty and Mr. Bryan. * This is their privilege, of course, but it appears Zrom the proceedings of the Nebraska Democratic wOonventicn that personal liberty and the gentle- \ from Lincoln are strangers. An effort was Pacie there to incorporate these words in the latform and Mr. Bryan’s objection was sufficient ‘Ho defeat it. In his language, “you might as well idorse the saloon and be done with it.” * The time will come when personal liberty will @ot be thus summarily disposed of, even in Ne- * “2 ©

~ * Under other circumstances the service rendered yy Mr. Wixford would have been considered heap at an outlay of millions. He is a public benefactor and there should be suitable recogni- tion of the fact. Te RICHARD YATES IN A NEW ROLE. . Gov. Deneen of Illinois is not the greatest re-

f race in the world, but in comparison -with Gov. Yates he will have a pleasing appear- to most people. It must be that Mr. Yates, after viewing the fee “political heavens, has come to the conclusion that = /_ reform is not going to be much of a shower after a hls, for he denounces Mr. Deneen as a faker and e a8 hypocrite and ridicules him chiefly for his : a “greditable impulses and activities. | . Mlinois Republicans have deen having every- their own way for a long time, and it may i be that the Lori, despairing of Democratic activ- a has raised up Richard Yatos to bring them to on, * . oe @ » ai «2 DEMOCRATS CAN WIN—MINUS STONE. - Seeing what Missouri Democrats can do in the

| _ voting way when they feel like it, the smart thing for the Democratic politicians to do would to encourage them to feel like it as much as ble between now and general election time. - Tuesday’s returns confirm the proposition that ‘order to beat the Republicans it is only a ques- ‘tion of getting out ‘the voté, Experience has been equally convincing of the fact that Democratic voters will stay at home apathetically after a fight by the Old Gang against the decent motives ‘and better impulses of the party. - The story of 1904 will in a way be re-enacted n 1908 if the campaign develops a similar fight Folk by the Old Gang. Folk will win, the c 1 Gang and Stone will lose, in any event, andj} Some State offices will be filled by Republicans. A bitter fight by the Old Gang on behalf of Stone precipitate a moral issue which will cauge Republicans themselves to see to it that the e’s respectability is vindicated, independently f other issues. < 4 E ane smart thing, however, for the ola Guard 9 do would be to drop the millstone in the shape a senatorial candidate that hangs about its heck and the inevitable and disastrous moral is- Bue which he precipitates, and put the party in _*® condition of celf-respect and spirit to go forth to the polls and defeat the Republicans as to all 7 THE TRAIL OF THE OLD GANG. Judge Evans is wholly justified in reminding the people of Missouri of the old scandalous days when legislation at Jefferson City was bought like merchandise, when avowed lobbyists thronged the Capitol and boasted of their power, when $1000 bills circulated freely, when public servants made no secret of their attachment to private interests, when men in high place not free from suspicion and when officers of good character found themselves practically helpless in the presence of greed and trickery. : These are not pleasant memories; they are ro Wwe dreams. There were money-making enterprises in this State which, under the guise of business and sport, corrupted the political and to some extent the social life of the commonwealth. They had their tools in office They gave direction to party activities. They ruled by force of graft in’ spheres which the people themselves should have dominated. Such conditions were due as much to the low standards and vulgar associations of the old gang as they were to the notorious corruptions cf the creatures who profited by them. If the old gang had possessed a sense of responsibility, if it had been made up of men of good morals, of ordi- nary wit and of common political decency, these things could not nave been. One has only to compare those times with the present to perceive what progress has been made and to understand what a calamity it would be to permit any retrogression. The Folk adminis- tration stands for much more than a party or a political theory. It stands for decency, clean methods and service, things which should be a ‘matter of course, but which, under the old gang methods, were forgotten in the riot of cheap and dirty politics. It is entirely legitimate for candidates for office to recall the past, not only as a warning but as an earnest of their appreciation of the re- forms which have taken place since gang ideas ceased to prevail. By such means only are the people to know where any aspirant stands. It ought not to be possible for a man to hope for official preferment in this State who is not willing and able to make it clear that he has neither affiliation nor sympathy with the old gang. + & & ~~ woe THE MERRY WIDOW IN POLITICS. The blithe and charming Democratic widow of Montgomery, Mo., who ran—or shall we say walked ?—for City Collector and received the vote of every man in town, is to be permitted to hold her office. Trust a widow to get around the Constitution, or anything else. At any rate, she has got around the politicians. They will gallantly permit her to name some male incumbent to fill the office nominally and legally while she will be actually on the job and draw the salary as the nominal incumbent’s “assistant.” What possibilities of romance ir the situation! What sentimental suggestion does the question hold—whom will she choose to serve? Who could not write the sequel to her selection? Every bachelor and widower in Montgomery will be suddenly precipitated into politics, and we pre- dict a race for the favor of this estimable and fascinating creature that will make the rest of the campaign over the State dull by comparison. May the best man win. in A hp a ae NOW IS THE TIME TO AIR TROUBLE. If there are any more notorious divorces brew- ing among the wealthy, avy more celebrities to be involved in marital scandals, any more shock- ing elopements t6 come, any more annulments tc be had, difficulties to be aired, or even inter- national courtships to be pursued, now is the time to get them over with the least notice. At present there are in process so many sen- sational affairs in high life that no one of them can attract much attention for any length of time, and a few miore would scarcely be noticed. To % great extent, also, sensational interest is sated by the multiplicity of them; attention is not keen. Out of the melee the public cannot distinguish one affair from another, and they cannot pos- sibly survive clearly i: recollection. Come one, come all who have scandals to spring, and take advantage of the people’s bewilderment, Confusion could hardly be worse confounded. . ————

= = oe CASTRO AND CAMPAIGN FIREWORKS. Let Cipriano Castro have a care! There is a campaign on in this country and in the circum- Stances we cannot be responsible for what may happen to a small man or a small nation that persists in picking a fuss with the administra- tion. Castro in his careless way seems to have over- looked the fact that our campaigns are usually incomplete without fireworks, Aguinaldo could have told him something about the political neces- sity of enthusing the masses from time to time in the United States. President Rooseve:t looks as if he is about to take out a constitutional permit to let off a few Republican rockets and Romar eandles. Some such excitement may be necessary to impress the masses, to divert them and to take their mind ctf troubles nearer home. =" oe i PROGRESS ON THE FREE BRIDGE. Two important items relative to the free bridge: | Up to date the expenditures on this great work have aggregated $3466, about one-third for sal- aries and wages and the remainder for tools, Car fare, telephones and office expenses. Isaac Smith, the first free bridge employe, an engineer, has resigned and gone to South Daltota, where he will enter the service of a railroad com- pany. Did Mr. Smith lose confidence in the bridge enterprise, or was he overworked?

Have been reading the letters in your paper on family economy and will say that I disagree with A. B. about it being impossible to have enough to eat on $17 per month. My hushand has a good position paying much more than A. B,’s and we find that we can live on $16 per month. A. B. should follow ad- vice given in these letters and cut down expenses. I think that $17 is sufficient for a family of three. We live on $16 per month and have all we want to eat. We are in no danger of starving at all. J. B. Local Option. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I am a young married man of 25 and have not touched any liquor for 8 years, have no trade, and earn my liying by labor of any kind, Now, if local option was to pay St. Louis a visit I would be in favor of the saloon. This country is over-crowded with foreigners and it is a: hard thing for a man to get work at the present time. What will the American laborer do after the thousands of brewery hands are thrown out of employment? 7 hee

Economy and Argument. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I am very interested in the economy question, and give A. B. credit for I am sure that E. W. cannot live on $17 per month for table expenses, unless his wife is one of the kind I know, who go to their neighbors and borrow half their meals, and forget what it costs others. Just so they can brag on how saving they are. It is an outrage that such as E. W. would dare publish such, as I know it causes a good deal of argument between a good thrifty wife and her husband. A. 2 The Price,of . Work. To the Editor of the Post-Digj | In a city like St. Louis, where much soft coal is burned and many changes of linen necessary, there s not one man in ten who can afford to pay the present prices charged for laundry work. Fifteen cents for shirts, and three cents for collars is too high. There is a report that athe larger laundries are in a “combine’ and tha. “they have joined forces in making present prices. The last raise seems, to have come at a time when more people than usual were unable to stand it. A SUFFERER Experience. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I am a very interested reader of your daily paper, and I wish to say a few words in regard to em- ployment I have answered many ads both personally and by mail, and when I call personally, the first question is, “Are you experienced.’””’ Now, what I want to know is: How did the employer get his start? Was he experienced the first day he secured employment? I guess not. Then why not give a fel- low a chance to become experienced. If he would only think of the day he first started in to work, maybe he was not “experienced.”’ I have been out of employment over three "months, have a wife to take care of, also have a trade, but what good does a trade do, when there is nothing doing, and trying other places you are met with “are you .exper- lenced ? AN UNEMPLOYED. Gyroscopes for Bellefontaine Line. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. Capt. McCulloch of the United Railways should consider the application of the gyroscope to Belle- fontaine line cars. Warren street on Tenth and Eleventh streets is almost as long as the catalogue of Delegate Hussey’s arrests. There are other sections of the system fitted (or misfitted) with scrap iron rails which corkscrew under the weight of rapidly moving cars and reject them. Louis Brennan, an Englishman, has invented a means for the overcoming of this difficulty. He sets an electrically operated gyroscope below the floor of the car and this device will maintain the car's equilibrium on a single rail of twisted, spiral wire. He has run his cars over wire rails that looked like a figure 8 made with a bad pen, delivering them safely to sections of s w and 2 rails without a bump for the passengers. In the interest of public com- fort and his corporation’s profit, Capt. McCulloch should open correspondence with the gyroscopist, unless his financial superiors have found an opening in the market for more bonds to get more money to buy more rails of the straight variety. J. KE. &@ “A Man of the World.” To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch. I would like to reply to the inquisition “What is a man of the world.”” Evidently it is a young lady inquiring, who it seems, is in doubt what sort of a man this is. If she has found a man of her liking, let her not worry about “a man of the world.” At present, I am associated with one such a man in @ business way, and I can tell you, his wife is not a happy one by any means. Her life is one continual round of lonesomeness, while her ‘“‘man of the world” is away on business. Gone perhaps eight or nine months out of every year, no permanent home roaming, as it were, from town to town in search of business. Being closely allied with this ‘‘man of the world” I can truthfully. give a lot more informa- tion for this “Ishegood” young lady to think dover. She had better not think any more of her friend's remark, who is evidently very shallow thinking, His remarks may lead you in the wrong path, for she is no doubt worldly in her opinions, or she could make no statement as she has. I am not condemning the “worldly man” at all. Let him have his place bes!d» too busy to extend te her. Then you may awaken. ee ee Oe

HAT DEBATE. HE: Your bonnet is too big—a mile. SHE: I know It, dear; but it’s the style. HE: The style or not—the thing’s a fright. SHE: You know, my dear, I right; It is, indeed, a perfect sight.

Politics take on @ decidedly polished one when the young men make their debut in the formal fashion observed of Billy Connett. Mr. Connett is welcome, but his bril- liant coming-out is doubly welcome. There never has been any reason for the great gulf between society and politics. High time it were closed. Why should a man going into politics knock around from one saloon to another, as if the only official announcement of his can- didacy were that before the bar? No reason, of course; merely a custom. The Connett idea is the thing. It puts politics upon the plane of fashionable society. It gives the political debutante a political prestige equaling the social prestige of the social debutante. Society is often excoriated, but the truth is that it is infinitely better than politics. Society has style, brilliance and more decency than not. Politics are a {foul mess by comparison, or not. Mr. Con- nett’s debut was socio-political. All politics should be socio-political. If they were, we should have prophylactic poli- tics—hygienic—or, better, Pasteurized politics. You know what we mean—only we can’t say it. The formal political debut is the first step toward a consummation much to be desired. When we get woman suf- frage, our political debutantes will come out with a brilliant ball. I read it.

JUST A MINUTE FOR VERSE AND HUMOR, Written for the Post-Dispatch by Clark McAdams. This Cannot w Old. A Sunday School teacher in Bryn Mawr was questioning her class about some prominent men of the Old Tes- tament. “Now Henry, can you tell me who was the wisest man in the Bible?” she asked, “Noah!” Henry answered promptly. “Oh, no, Henry,” the teacher said, “you don’t mean Noah; you mean Sol- omon, don’t you?” “No, ma’am; I mean Noah.” “What makes you think that Noah was the wisest man?’ “Well,” said Henry, “my papa ‘says a’ man like Solomon, with 600 wives, and 800 porcupines, is a blamed old fool, while Noah knew enough to get in out of the wet when it began to rain.”—Philadelphia Ledger. An Irish Ta One day an Irishman, Having put his hat upon a gatepost by which he lay down to sleep, sprang up at midnight and mistaking the object for an en- emy, dealt it a desperate cut with his scythe. Perceiving his mistake, the man gave thanks to heaven that he had taken it off before lying down. “For,” said he, “had my head been in that hat, ’tis ten to one I had laid it open with my scythe, and ‘tis a dead man I would have been seein’ mesilf at this minute!”—The Captain. A Matter of Definition. The Chicago Inter-Ocean gives the following comprehensive definitions of the world “bughouse”’ and fits deriva- tives: Bughouse—(n.) State of being bug: house, dippy, dopy, daffy; having bats / in one’s belfry, etc. Bughouse—(v.) Not of sound oink pertaining to a bughouse person. Bughouse—(a.) One who has gone bughouse.

THE MARRYING OF A WIDOWER. —_——_- i or Myra Hewes Says It Is Not Such a Great Risk if Sensibly Considercd Py the Widower and His Choice.

‘6 @M A uster allus say: ‘Don’t fool with widowers, grass nor sod.’”’ But the general verdict would be in favor of the widower. A man who has the nerve to take the leap again, while thou- -gands halt on the brink all their lives and others fall in and get drowned, shows that he has all the ear marks of a brave and chivalrous man. There is much to be said for the widower. He has learned all the little weaknesses of women and how to bear with them and all their great virtues. He has the first flush worn off, knows better than to fly off about his buttons or get. jealous over imaginary matters. He has learned the value of pa- tience and in many instances has been robbed of a large amount of egotism. If his beloved spouse departed by the way of the front door it shows that his faith is hard to kill; if she took her departure by way of the golden stair it shows that somebody loved him anyhow, ard that he must have some £00d qualities. ‘ However, these considerations are small potatoes and few in a row when love steps in. They vanish like quicksand before the billows of the mighty deep. ‘If a man really falls in love, of course he wouldn't marry her for the world if he wasn’t quite sure that she was the dearest and sweetest crea- ture ever created and rhat he was the best person she could by any possi- bility choose. All things considered, the widower should choose some one in whose company he could forget the other. She should be a young woman who has never been married, in preference to a widow with children; otherwise, the combi- nation of the two families might prove a rather stiff jolt to his young love’s dream. She should possess extreme charms and many accomplishments--one who has the power to bring sweet oblivion, and, above all, one who is capa- ble of an absorbing love, great sacrifice, an angelic disposition and nobility of character. Love is the strongest of all passions in such a case—it is om- nipotent—so that when it exists in its proper energy on one side only it absorbs all the minor energies, and, on the field threatened with storms, the rainbow hangs out its multi-colored bridge in the sky, drawing enemies nearer and mak‘ng them allies. If a widower has no children his Marriage with a widow with children is usually a success, as he is usually out all day and has sweet communion with her offspring. little chance for ‘In choosing a wife it is extremely difficult to know all the faults of one who loves you; unconsciously she desires to appear jner pest. will not go far wrong if he will choose the daughter of a good mother. _

NE of the most important patho- (0) logical discoveries of the decade was made at Winfield, Kan., thie week when Hans Wagner, who reporte’ himself so incapacitated from rheums tism that he could not accept a $3, salary to play baseball was instantane- ously cured. Wagner, when seen at the} Southern Hotel last night, was able to hobble in and out of the buffet with almost human facility, and there is\no doubt the cure is complete. The treatment administered by Dr. Fred Clarke has not been made public further than that it was a variation of the gold cure. The size of the dose is believed to exceed $10,000. Another will be admin- istered in Pittsburg shortly, after which it ia thought Wagner will have entirely recovered.

Louls Cardinals is one of those hust- ling leaders who believes a little Greek and Latin re sometimes help aman to be a good ball player. Of course, he has to be taught to wear hig cap in a game and give his opponent a glassy stare instead of the fraternal grip, but when these little Minor details have been erased, a col- lege bred man has a chance of being a big leaguer. . In the summer of 1906, the Cardin- als were playing a series in Cincin- nati on their way East. McCloskey needed a catcher badly. Two of his backstops were sick and the other was no good. The team was losing games and couldn’t pay $10,000 for a Johnny Kling. In a Cincinnat! paper, McCloskey saw an account of a game between Notre Dame and Purdue, two of In- diana’s leading colleges.

Detroit, : PRACTICAL TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT Many people think that the only way to prevent men from drinking whiskey. beer, etc.. is to prohibit the sale of them. It would be a grand thing if the sale of intox!- cants wes stopped entirely, but until such time, do not stand by and allow some friend to become a drunkard when it is in your power to save him, Alcobol is a drug, and most men when they have drank it long enough to ecquire the drug effect can no more resist the temp- tation to drink than a morphine or cocaine fiend can resist taking his drug. White Ribbon Remedy destroys the desire for liquor, and one of the best things about this medecine is that you can cure the vic- tim without his knowing that he is taking the treatment. White Ribbon Remedy is a tasteless, odor- less and colorless powder, which you can place in his tea, coffee or food. It is guar- anteed under the Pure Food and Drugs Act, June 30. 1006, Serial No. 3110. The White Ribbon Remedy Company of Boston, Mass., will gladly send you free a sample of the medicine and a book on Alco- holism in a plain sealed envelope. The price of the medicine is only $1- per package, and is sold and indorsed by Raboteau & Co., Judge & Dolph Drug Co., Wolff-Wilson

BOSTON , April 10.—Massachusetts Re- publicans, meeting in State convention here today, elected four delegates-at- large»who will go’to the National Re- ‘publican Convention’ at Chieago unin- structed and unpledged for any particu- lar candidate. ‘Differences of Opinion Adjusted. Differences of opinion on the question of’ instructions among -the delegates Were ddjusted previous to the opening of: the convention, the Committee on Resolutions having accepted a plank in which reference was made to the strong sentiment of many delegates in favor of an, .indorsement of Secretary Taft as presidential candidate, but which de- clared that uncertainty as to whether a resolution of preference could be carried in ‘the convention would be likely to lead toia contest which would be injurious to the welfare of the party. The four delegates-at-large, who were elected by acclamation, are Senators Henry Cabot Lodge and W. Murray Crbne, ex-Secretary of the Navy John D. Long and Sidney O. Bigney. Guild for Second Place. The platform opened with an ex- pression of regret over the illness of Gov.

TICKER TALK Call money on the New York Exchange opeaded at 14%@1% per cent Friday. NEW YORK, April 10.—The hanks “have gained $22870,000 in their operations with the Sub-Treasury since last Friday. NEW YORK, April 11.—There are several eouflicting reports afloat concerning the pres- ent status of the Erie matter. For instance, one idea is held that under the new plan Messrs. Morgan, Harriman, Twombly and Baker will not bave to fulfill their obligations for underwriting $5,000,000 of the new Erie notes. The. fact of the matter is that the underwriting agreement of these gentlemen still stands. There is another statement which claims more or less authority to the effect that E. Hi. Harriman simply headed a. syndicate when he made bis offer to redeem the old notes in cash. There is the very highest authority for saying that the expense of Mr. Harri- man’s offer is in every respect borne by him ersonall ' There “of another idea in Wall Street that the present financing werely postpones for a few mouths an inevitable receivership for the Erie.

wr FIRE NEAR CAPE HORN “Arthur Sewall,” With a Car- go of Coal, Was De- stroyed at Night. i eae

Bpecia) to the Post-Dispatch. PHILADELPHIA, April 10.—The first tidings ever received here of. the steel ship Arthur Sewall, which sailed from this port on April 3, 1907, for Seattle, with a cargo of coal, reached here to- Gay when George Baker, the only one ot ber crew of 27 men known to be alive, revorted to United States Commissioner Smith. His story was confirmed by dceuments he carried, and he was identified by shipping masters and other persons in this city who knew him per- sonally. Soon after the vessel rounded Cape Horn evidence was discovered that the cargo was heated, and on the night of Sevt. 8 smoke was seen coming out of he main hateh. Flames soon‘ followed. The fire must have been smouldering in the vessel's hold fo¥ some time. Capt. Gatfry ordered the smal! boats to be lewered and everything made ready for ainandoning the ship. Drifted Away in Darkness. While the starboard boat was being lowered by Second Mate Weinberg, as- sisted by Baker and a man named Dix- on, the falls broke and the boat with its occupants drifted to the southward in the darkn&®€s. As long as the three men could see the fire it grew brighter, and there is little doubt that in a short time the vessel was destroyed and the remainder of the crew lost. For two days the small boat drifted about on the ocean, no one knew where, tie craft being without a compass or guil. On the third day out a Norwegian ourk, the Syvdenham, bound from Callao to Newcastle, New South Wales, was sixhted and she picked up the three niern and took them along to fill up a .. aepleted crew. Little Chance of Survival. After a 4-day pasSage the bark reached Newcastle, where she loaded a cargo of coal for Kiel, Germany. Baker }roceeded to Bremen and procured em- ployment on the North German Lloyd steamship, Kron Prinzessin Cecilie as a stoker, and on the vessel's arrival at New York got money enough to reach Philadelphia. The Sewall hailed from Bath, Me., and Ways a modern steel vessel, built at the vort from which she sailed. There is oniy a slight chance that the crew of the burning vessel retehed some of the islands in,the South Pacific Ocean, as the distance to be covered was too great for the small. boats.
