The pupils, who were both boys and girls and ranged in age from seven years to 36, were asked to answer in writing two questions: "What person of whom you have ever heard would you most like to resemble? Why?" The papers, as was <xp cted. revealed many a«nusing misapprehensions. "I want to be like a king. Because he don't tell lies or do bad things." "I would like to be like my father. Because he can do what he wants." "1 would like to be like Queen Elizabeth. The reason why 1 would like to he like her is because she was kind to everybody." The an swers just given are fair specimens from the lower grades. As the children grow older two things are noticeable: the effect of historic instruction, Wash ington or Lincoln being the chosen ideal of 40 per cent, of the children over ten, and the significant increase in qual ities which accompany an active life. The children desire to be brave, free, to have adventures and togo to war. "Robinson Crusoe," a boy of 12 writes, "Because he had no expenses to pay, and I would love to be near the Indians, and a person would be more apt to dis cover something." The most striking thing in these answers, however, ac cording to the view of the Youth's Com panion, is the increase in masculine ideals among the girls. Sixty-seven p< r cent, of the older girls emphasize char acteristics as desirable which 30 years ago would have been considered dis- ; tinctly unfeminine; such, for example, as intellectual ability, desire for free dom, adventure, fame, leadership, dis covery, invention. One girl of 13 states the case fairly: "I believe that I would rather resemble a man than a woman, because the deeds of women, although sometimes great, self-sacrificing and brave, sink into insignificance when compared with the valorous deeds of nun." Such a result is natural when we remember that American history pre sents only male characters and deals al most exclusively with conquest and war. The girls are merely seeking the best that they have been taught to know. Yet is there not need just here for a teaching, whether at home or at school, of deeper insight which shall j reveal the other side of the picture? The deeds of pioneer women, no less "valorous" than their husbands and sons; the silent heroism of mothers and wives who knew the agony of war but not its glory; the faith that kept even step with the long labors of inventors; ' the love that in all times has made high deeds possible—should not our girls be taught to claim these as their rightful heritage? To be a woman of courage and honor and clear brain and pure j heart, this should be an ideal great enough to satisfy the most ambitious girl. The ordering of great numbers of lo- ■ comotives and freight cars and the frequent wrecks Itnilrund on western rail- Mori mines. roads show that the roatls have been wearing them selves out hauling prosperity around and that as it seems to be going to keep up, a fresh set of tools is neces sary to keep on hauling it. For a time, according to the St. Louis Globe-Dem ocrat, some of the lines were so over whelmed with business that they were unable to care for it with the an tiquated and rusty apparatus still left over from hard times. They have had to get new machinery. For awhile this means more mortgages, but no body seems to be afraid of a mortgage except a farmer and a man on a sal ary. It was never known to worry a railroad. There is no walking the floor over a $60,000,000 mortgage; which shows it is better for a corpora tion to do business than an individual. A corporation can't worry. If it does break up, it goes to the courts and gets some kind of a writ or order that no body understands but the lawyers and goej| right on doing business. This is thy peauty of the subdivision of re g, |P*ibility. It is a lesson in coopera .-i# ""nbination and the beneficence one, Don't fight the trusts; get uon on rai/ro. ,; e hope this lucid disqui « y all those who , ids will be appreciated understand it. CALAMITY SUITS THEM. Democrat* Have \<ill«iiiK lo lltip« For l iilcim II lit- Financial Dlkti later. There is an intimation that the strike of the anthracite miners is to be renewed in 1904, so as to affect the presidential canvass. A strike, it is said, was con templated for this year, but it has been put off for 12 months. Of course, the possibility of a big labor disturbance next year is something which will give comfort to the democratic politicians. It may be presumed, indeed, that those personages will use their influence to stave off to 1904 all labor conflicts which have any chance to come in the present year, or which are threatening. Noth ing in the general business or political situation as it now exists has the slight est promise of success for the demo crats, says the St. Louis Globe-Demo crat. So far as any democratic poli tician can see at this time. President Koosevelt's majority in 1904 will be at least as large as President McKinley's was in 1900. A labor disturbance on a large scale, however, would change the situation, as the democrats believe. It was thellome- Stead strike of 1592 that hit the republi cans in that year, and defeated Harri son for reelection. Other causes—the belief that prosperity was fixed anyhow and that democratic success could not affect it, and the desire which many peo ple always have for a change of some sort —had some influence on the cam paign, but democrats as well as republi cans concede that the Homestead labor conflict had much to do with Cleveland's election in that year. The strike began in the summer, just after the national conventions had been held, and it lasted for over four months. The Pennsylvania militia were called out, the leaders of the strikers were arrested on a charge of treason asainst the state and the whole country was excited. The strike was at length called off. but no], till long after it had been lost. It was not till Novem ber 20 that the affair ended, and that was two weeks after the election had taken place. The republican plurality in Penn sylvania in that year was reduced to 63.000, largely on account of the labor troubles. Cleveland carried the repub lican states of Illinois and Wisconsin, and cut Harrison's lead in Ohio almost to the vanishing point. Manifestly, if the democratic bosses ?an bring on an anthracite strike in 1904 they will be encouraged to make an act ive canvass. But let them not assume that even if there should be a strike they would win the election. The anthracite strike in 1902 was the most serious labor conflict which has occurred in the United States in many years, but it did not have the political effect which the democrats hoped and which some republicans feared. The republicans carried congress in that year by a large majority. Presi dent Roosevelt showed himself to he such a friend to both sides in the conflict that his plan of a truce and arbitration was adopted. A settlement was reached whereby work was resumed, and though the prices of coal were sent tip to the highest figure touched in many years, the republican party was not perceptibly in jured. The president, indeed, by his ar bitration scheme, made new friends among the miners as well as among the people in general which stand a chance to help the party in 1904. As the demo crats' interest in bringing a labor con flict next year is known, the republican chieftains may be relied onto use their Influence, for the sake of the country as well as that of the party, to avert it. The calamity which the democrats desire for partisan purposes stands an excellent chance to be headed off. CURRENT COMMENT. ttT'The democratic newspapers which are advocating the nomination of Gen.

I'rot pot ion Meet* frith Favor in .Inpnn mm a Mt-aiiN of I'roiaiol lii|f I'roHperit Japan has been trying protection and seems to like it. That country is mak ing great advancement in the ways of civilization, and naturally wants to stand among progressive people. To do so it must develop its own resources, and this can be done only through proper encouragement. Japan a few years ago discovered that, it was buying abroad a large, number of articles which its foremost statesmen and economists were satisfied it could produce at home. For instance, in 1 Sl>B Japan imported $1,474,168 worth of watches. It con cluded to try the effect of higher tariff rates on many products, believing the result would be to stimulate home de velopment. The result has justified its judgment. In 1902 its imports of watches, for instance, were but $116,670. It had increased the duty on watches from five per cent., the former rate, To 30 per cent. Effect —the Japanese be gan to manufacture watches and the importations of those articles fell off. But, while this has been the case, says the Troy Ttmes, the general result of the higher tariff has been to increase, not to diminish, Japan's foreign trade generally. In this respect its experi ence has strikingly similar to that of the United States, which under "high protection" has seen its manufactures attain unprecedented proportions, surpassing those of any other nation, while its ex ports and imports have reached pro digious figures. The absurd free trade contention that protection shuts the doors of other nations against a pro tected country has been so often dis proved of late by the stories from Ger many and Japan and the remarkable commercial advance of the United States that it would seem to be pretty near time to retire that worn-out as sertion. Japan is increasing both its exports and its imports, just as the United States is doing, and the greatest in crease in each case has been made since higher protection has been secured. Here are a few figures which are sig nificant as indicating the drift: For the first four months of the present year the imports of Japan were about $14,000,000 in excess of those of the same period last year, and the exports were $3,000,- 000 greater. For the same four month'? the imports of the United States ex ceeded those of the like period last year by $47,000,000, while the exports for the four months of 1903 were $54,- 000,000 more than in 1902. Japan is fol lowing the protection trail, and it finds in tlie United States a very encouraging example. PREPARING FOR NEXT YEAR. T!ic Democracy l.ookiuff Forward to liulinr Trouble* lo Help Tlieni Alork. Undoubtedly the intimation in a dis patch from Pottsville, Pa., that the strike of the anthracite coal miners may be renewed next year, during the presidential election, was inspired by democratic suggestion or advice. A great quarrel between capital and labor next year would establish conditions in which the democratic politicians would revel, says the Cleveland Leader. That it would be accompanied by po litical complications nobody can doubt, for it is intimated that the leaders of the miners are figuring on political as sistance to help them win a victory. Such a strike, occurring next year, would surely put President Roosevelt in an annoying position. He would, of course, be asked to use his good offices to bring about a settlement of the con troversy, and whichever side he took he would run the risk of incurring the ill will of those on the other side. On the other hand, his democratic opponent, not being in public office, could play the demagogue to his heart's content, with out annoying complications. Nothing would probably please the democrats better next year than a strike of the anthracite coal miners. But the leaders of the miners, if they have any sense of gratitude, will pre vent one if it lies within their power to do so. They have every reason to be grateful to Theodore Roosevelt. Last year, in his efforts to restore industrial peace in the anthracite region, he vio lated all precedent by calling the repre sentatives of capital and labor to the white house for a conference, and he put his hand into the strike situation so firmly and with such good effect that the long struggle was brought to a close with honor and credit to labor. Mr. Ilryau Complimented. We have little admiration for bolters as Mr. Bryan professes to have. In our philosophy, the man who thinks himself better, and greater, and more virtuous than his party is a tiresome prig, and when the man happens to be a benefici ary of the party he is an ingrate to boot. But the spectacle of Mr. Bryan, with an entourage of mouthing mountebanks, proelaiminghimselftheonly true proph et and denouncing all who disagree with bim as renegades is a little too much for our patience and composure. He will do well to remember that he has already been twice overwhelmingly defeated, and to consider that modesty will be come him somewhat better than this fantastic arrogance.—Washington Post. Wlicrc Gorman Stand*. Democrats profess to wonder why republicans are pleased whenever the possibility of Senator Gorman of Mary land receiving the presidential nomina tion is hinted at.

VICTIMS OF GRAFTERS. government Ferreting Out Fraud* Perpetrated on Indian* Land Sale) Annulled, Washington, Aug. 28. — The deter mination of Secretary Hitchcock to send to Indian Territory a man not. | connected with the department of; the interior to investigate conditions ; there is understood to lie for tin- pur- l pose of supplementing the work of! the secretary himself and of other j representatives of the department in j that territory. Since early last I spring the secretary has been giving a large share of his personal at ten- 1 tion to the situation in the territory j and a number of the inspectors and other oflieials of the department have been engaged in the effort to 1 ferret out frauds and protect the in- ; terests of the Indians. 'J'he secretary made a tour of the i territory in May, largely for the purpose of making inquiry regarding reports that had come to liini of ef- ! forts to deprive the Indians of their rich landed inheritances, and the re-: suit of this personal investigation was to confirm the report that there : was a persistent effort to secure t lie ! Indian lands at prices far below their ; real value. As a consequence of this inquiry he i made u radical revision of the regula tions for the sale oi the alloted lands, and the developments since that change was made indicate that he has saved the Indians a large per- i centage over what would have been I paid them if the original regulations ' had stood. The new rules require that all In- [ dian lands which ar; 1 for sale shall be advertised and appraised by a com petent official. The secretary lias cancelled all sales made prior to the time that the new regulations took effect. There were 429 of these deeds, calling for an aggregate payment of $360,000, All these deeds, with the checks, have been returned to the purchasers and the prices received on inherited lands indicate that under the new regulations the prices paid will exceed the old prices by from 13 to Iper cent. Persistent efforts to secure con trol of tiie lands through the lease proeesss have been discovered. In one ease the secretary found during his stay in Indian Territory that clerks in the office of an Indian agent had taken on themselves the respon- i sibility for denying a hearing to their national attorney, who represented some H.ooo Indians. The secretary immediately denounced this transac tion us an abuse of official authority and provided for the punishment of the persons engaged in it. A favorite method for securing the leases is to have the, Indians ap proached by merchants, who by offer ing their wares in exchange can se cure the most favorable terms from them, and the understanding is quite ! general that when control of a piece of land is once secured by means of leasing it will be held by some means until it can be purchased at the lessee's own figures. The secretary is giving his careful attention to this problem and is already, even under the present law. finding mvans to protect the Indians against some of the most flagrant abuses of the leas ing system. The secretary realizes that while there may be shortcomings on the. part of some of the government olli cials, there are on the other hand many men not employed by the go\- erninent who have grievances against these officials and are dis posed to make all the trouble for them they can. These men he des ignates as "grafters," and the feel ing in the department is that any official who may oppose their designs is certain to be made the subject of the harshest censure bv tnem. The secretary announces his determina- j lion to protect officials who are doing their duty against the scheme of all j such people. Several officials who already have . been detected in questionable trans actions have been dismissed, while ! Ihe resignations of others have been requested. THE MIMIC WAR.

Keadville, Mass., Aug. 25. —Before & great crowd of spectators at lleud ville yesterday and with track and weather conditions perfect. Lou Dil lon trotted a mile in two minutes, a new world's record. So that 110 breeze might interfere, Millard Sanders, driver of the great mare, brought out the daughter of Sidney Dillon for the attempt early in the day. For pacemakers there were two running horses hitched to road carts, Peggy from Paris, driven by "Doc" Tanner, and Carrie Nation, driven by Scott McCoy. The first score was fruitless, Lou Dillon makinjj a break just before reaching the wire. On the second at tempt. however, the word was given, though Starting Judge Walker rang his bell, but Tanner nodded for hi in to say "go"and, turning to Sanders, called to him to come along 1 . Tanner kept Pegpy from Paris directly in front of the peerless chestnut trotter, while McCoy lay at her wheel. In this way the trio went to the quarter pole in 30V4 seconds. With never a skip Lou Dillon went so smooth-gaited down the back stretch as to lead those not timing the mile to believe that her speed was not alarmingly fast. The half was clicked off in 1:Ol» : *i. Around the turn to the three-quarters pole the clip quickened, the third quarter be ing in :sn'/i seconds, making that mark of her journey in 1:31. Faster and faster came Tanner with the runner and right with him trotted the hand some California bred mare. To the amazement of all the quarter was drove in 2!) seconds, thus mak ing the mile in the wonderful time of two minutes. When Sanders jogged the mare back to the wire, those who had wit nessed the performance leaped to their feet and sent forth cheer after eheer. Lou Dillon apparently was as fresh as though she had only been out for a jogging exercise. Favorites won all the four racing events. "Scott" Hudson drove two of the winners. Xervala and Dillon Boy.

With the track so muddy next to the pole that, racing" bad to lie done in the clean outside of the course, the second day's program of the grand circuit meeting at Keadville was decided he fore a "large crowd. The principal at traction was the $5,000 Norfolk stake for pacers eligible to the 2.24 class Inst spring". "Nick" Ilubinger's blind stallion Elastic Pointer, brother of Star Pointer, was made favorite and won the first heat. The talent got a bad scare in the second heat when .lack Curry made a rousing finish with Pan Michael, nipping" out Pointer right at the wire. Elastic Pointer came back gamely, however, taking the two fol lowing heats. Promise was backed heavily to win the 2:12 trot. After taking the open ing heat he dropped the next two, "Scott" Hudson having the winnner in Belle Kuser. In the 2:10 trot, the Roman, a warm favorite, was not a factor af ter the first heat, which .11111 Kerry won. The next heat the grey gelding quit to almost a walk when collared at the distance flag.

Keadville, Mass., Aug. 28.—About 12.000 persons attended the grand circuit races at Keadville yesterday. The conditions were not perfect for extremely fast time. Billy Buck was the favorite for the Massachusetts $15,000 stake for 2:12 trotters and won the race. The judges suspended Scott Hud son ten days for laying Hawthorne up. Alta McDonald was also given ten days' suspension for laying Ka- Inares up in the initial heat of the 2:2'> trot. Queen Wilkes won the race. Another New York horse to win was Mazetto in the 2:16 trot, lie and Jav McGregor had a duel for five heats. "Lou" McDonald paraded the best 5-ycar-old out this year in Sadie Mac.
