Papers sent out ol the county must be paid lor In advance Sensible Social Departure. A socjil revolution has been effected in the town of Haparanda, in Sweden. Ac cording to the Gaulois, the ladies there have unanimously decided to absolve the men from the duty of lifting their hats while greeting them in the streets —at least during the prevalence of the unusually severe weather of this winter. It is fair to infer, remarks the New York Post, that this resolve was taken only after a most careful study of med ical statistics showing beyond a doubt that there are three times as many men differing from "catarrh, neuralgia, toothache, influenza, and heavy colds" as there are women similarly afflicted. The cause of this alarming preponder ance of male patients along what may rough'/ be termed facial lines it seems can only be explained by the old way of saluting the fair sex in bad weather. There is much to be said for the heroic step taken by the ladies of Haparanda, who are thus willing to content them selves for a time with a "simple military greeting;'' but we think the Gaulois is rash in assuming that they will earn the particular gratitude of bald-headed gen tlemen. A somewhat minute observation of the behavior of elderly men in the act of offering the customary salutation to passing female acquaintances has led us to believe that none are more eager to hare their heads on such occasions than those whose heads are already bare. Senators and representatives get all sorts of extraordinary requests from constituents, but Senator Berry, of Arkansas, claims that one he received a few days ago easily beats the record. The letter, which was from a woman, was accompanied by two songs, one entitled: "Why, Oh, Why?" and the other: "Peace, Oh. Peace." The writer eaid: "Senator, I want you to take these songs, which I have composed after months of hard and persistent la bor, to President Roosevelt, submit .them to him and get a letter of in dorsement from him, and I will agree to allow you ten per cent, on the pro ceeds from the sale. You know, sen ator, the president's indorsement will be a great advertisement for the songs, and I feel sure they will be a go. You might also sing them to the senators if you have the time." Speaker Cannon was plowing his way ■toward the white house through asnow storm when he met a friend who com plained of the cold. "Nonstn.se," said "Uncle Joe. "Why, this is the kind of weather to make an old boss feel spry." Congressman Bede was equally con temptuous, relates the Washington Post, when two southern representatives made some shivering remarks. "This is •pie for me," deelared the Minnesota man, "mere midsummer compared with the weather in my country. Once was Jin a party in St. Paul and the talk got to cold weather. Everybody told how cold he had been. Finally an old Irish man who had not said a word spoke up and said: "The coldest winter I ever saw was one summer I spent in I)u- Juth.' " The idea that free distribution by the government is approved by the farm ers of the country may need to be modi fied. Senator Piatt, of Connecticut, in presenting to the United States senate an anti-free seed resolution passed by the Lynn grangeof Hamburg, remarked: "I think the resolution represents pretty fairly the sentiment among the agriculturists in Connecticut in opposi tion to the present governmental distri bution of seeds." If Connecticut farm ers oppose it. asks a contemporary, why should other farmers favor t he system ?" Ella M. Hopkins, of L'tiea. N. Y., bids fair to be a second Helen Keller. About eight years ago, she being then 9 years old, she suffered from a severe attack of yellow fever and on her recovery could neither see, speak nor hear. She •was sent, to an institution for the in struction of the deaf and dumb, and now may be said to see and hear with her sensitive finger tips. She also speaks freely. The principal of the institution says: "With her mentality, she may j n time arrive at as high a state of develop ment as iiellen Keller." The occasional arrest of a postal clerk for stealing letters only calls attention to the high standard of honesty that prevails generally among the thousands cl employes of the postal service. THEY' ARE COMING OVER. Many Desertions from the Democratic Ranks to the Roosevelt Standard. The swing of a large element of the democracy over to the republican side is so emphatic and so numerically pow erful that some of the persons partici pating in it imagine that it is the re publican party which is moving iu their direction. Senator Carmack, of Tennessee, one of the radical faction of the democracy, says that "President Roosevelt has become the foremost disciple ami ablest lieutenant of Wil liam J. Bryan." This expression came out in a meeting of the committee ou interstate commerce. The Tennessee democrat remarked that "such joyous harmony prevails in the committee that all party lines are obliterated." He added that "all the members of the committee, down to myself, are stirred by a keen desire to execute at the ear liest possible moment the promise made by President Roosevelt to the people of the United States to carry out the pledges in the democratic plat form." As persiflage this talk is all right. The country will he glad to hear that the democrats and the republicans stand together in the endeavor to carry out President Roosevelt's policy on the trust issue. But Senator Carmack and every other intelligent democrat knows that the policy regarding the trusts which the president is pursuing is the policy laid down in the platform on which he stood. That policy has been followed by the republicans ever since the trust issue came to the front. The republican platform of 1904 had this as one of its provisions: "Laws enact ed by the republican party, which the democratic party failed to enforce, and which were intended for the protection of the public against th-j unjust dis crimination or the illegal encroach ment of vast aggregations of capital, have been fearlessly enforced by a re publican president, and new laws in suring reasonable publicity as to the operations of great corporat'ons. and providing additional remedies for the I prevention of discriminations in I freight rates, have been passed by a republican congrts-." '1 he president j thus singled out in ISIO4 the man who has enforced the republican anti ! trust law which the democratic presi dent, Grover Cleveland, evaded or ig nored, was Theodore Roosevelt. All of this is just as well known to Car mack and every other intelligent dem | ocrat as it was to the men who framed | the republican platform. An immense drift of democrats over ; to the republican side all over the i country is under way, al: hough some | democrats may facetiously say that ; the movement is in tha other direc tion. If the election of 19U1 wore held to-day that unprecedented popular plu rality of 2,500,000 for the republican candidate would bt 3,500,000 or 4,000,- 000. It is the fate of republican j» >l - that it eventually becomes so pop ular with the people that its opponents themselves are compelled to indorse it. And some of them, after a while, fool themselves, or try to, into the belief that they favored it all along. Under the familiar optical error of (ar riders that it is the trees and th? mountains that are moving, the democrats now are saying that the reapproachment on the trust issue means a swing by the republicans to the democratic side. With this illusion the republicans will not quarrel. They are making and ex ecuting the law*. The popularity and the political profit there if will come to the republican party. Mr. Isr. t an and many of his principal lieutenants are giving high praise to the president, apparently oblivious of the truth that this praise all comes to the party which elected him. A new era of good feeling has come to the country, ac cording to the democratic politicians, and only one par.y is extant any longer. It is a rather important, cfr cumstance. h ,wev r. that that all embracing American political party is the republican paity. OPINION AND COMMENT. fight asains the octupus is getting lively along the whole line. Illinois joins hands with Kansas, and Uncle Sam himself is taking a hand in the scrimmage. The oct tpus may or may not be as terrib e a critter as ha.s lu'en rsp.-e ente'. But one thing is certain —there never was an octopus so big and powerful that it could hold the American people per manently in its g asp if that people were united and det •rminrd in the effort to get out of its el itches.—Troy Times. c'"The tariff revision idea is as dead as a door nail for a twelvemonth, and the truth is that popular sentiment re garding the matter seems to have been wrongly interpreted. Despite a great deal of newspaper representation to the contrary, it does not appear that there is any general and sincere desire Ihr uphout the country to cut down the tariff schedules. l'< rhaps if times ■were bad popular feeing on the sub ject would be different; but the times are not bad, and are not likely to be.— N.

INCAPABLE OF GOVERNING. | Spirit of the Democracy Which Is a Menace to Business Interests. The administration bill ardently sup ported by President Roosevelt and Sec retary Taft for the reduction of duties at American ports on Philippine sugar and tobacco to 25 per cent, of the rates prescribed in the Dingley law had been under consideration by the ways and means committee of the house of repre sentatives for some time when a vote was taken which resulted: In favor of the bill, 14; opposed to the bill, 1. The mi nority vote was cast by S. M. Robertson, democrat, of Baton ißouge, La. Every republican member of the commute© supported the measure. Mr. Robertson's vote is instructive as showing the disease which afflicts the | democratic party, says the Chicago Chronicle. He represents in part a state which is interested in the produc- j tion of sugar. It is probable that he would not hesitate to deprive iron and ! steel, wool or hides, copper or glass of 100 ! per cent, of the protection given thera ! under the Dingley law, and he would feel that he was acting on principle in so do- I ing, but a proposition to reduce tariff ! taxation upon even the small sugar : product of an American dependency ; i could not be entertained by him for a 1 minute. Thus a democrat theoretically opposed ! to all tariff for protection outrepublicans ! the republicans of the ways and means 1 committee, who believe in protection for protection's sake, but who can be per suaded on occasion to modify the laws on the subject when no harm will be done to any interest at home. As Mr. Taft has pointed out. the entire Philippine sugar crop, if admitted duty free, would have no effect whatever upon the American i market. Mr. Robertson's vote shows why the democratic party cannot govern. It un dertakes as a matter of principle to pass a tariff bill and selfish interests detach j enough of its members to make the meas ! tire a matter of mere bargain and sale. Most democrats are radical free traders ! so far as the industries and products of 1 other people are concerned. They ara 1 enthusiastic protectionists as far as theii 1 own local industries are concerned. It is this spirit which makes the party when it is aggressive and dominant a menace to the greater business interests of the country. The Wilson tariff law aa amended by democratic grafters and log rollers was more obnoxious than any re- I publican tariff, because it was wholly ; selfish and unprincipled. A republican I tariff bill is drawn with the idea that I beneficiaries must give as well as take, 1 and it does not attempt to smite one sec ! tion in order to build up another. A party which, even when in the mi nority, cannot agree to support its own professed principles, has little to offer to the people who at times may be in clined to favor a change of administra -1 tion. ROOSEVELT AND SENATE. Admirable Conduct of the President in His Clash with the Senate. The overflowing energy of Mr. Roose velt, tempered by the mature wisdom of the senate (a condition never absent | from the minds of the framers of the : constitution), cannot fail to guide us along lines of sobriety and safety. When our excellent chief magistrate is right ! he has no warmer admirer, no stancher henchman than the Sun. He is for the most part right, always so by intention; but his most intemperate worshipers must admit that the impetuosity of youth sometimes gets the upper hand of his native judgment. It is on these occas ions. and only on these, says the New ! York Sun. that the Sun has felt an ad -1 monitory impulse and has given expres j sion to it in words of temperate and 1 sauve reproof. Mr. Roosevelt is always wisdom itself when he permits himself to take time : enough, and he must surely see that the | late action ol the senate is the best thing that could possibly have happened to him or to the country. For some time ho has manifested a brilliant and even fas j cinating tendency, the very picturesque ! ness of which was thrilling to a mind : which, like his. can but ill brook the commonplace in either life or office. A moderate reflection must convince him that a chew to this tendency, which in the nature of things he could not himself ; administer, was as necessary as it was salutary. The whole country is grateful for what i has occurred. It feels relieved and re j assured. Its confidence in Mr. Roose-. I velt is not only unabated, but is vastly | enhanced, and the reason that this is so j is that it appreciates the wholly admlr- I able and manly temper in which he has | taken the action of the senate. A weaker | and less masterly president might have | resented it and have proceeded to the | excess of a seeming or real retaliation. 1 Mr. Roosevelt has done nothingof the j kind; his bearing is that of the young ! Tclemachus receiving with mingled dig i nity and filial affection the admonitions of Mentor. So may we fare for four years more and our president grow in wisdom and every day fortify himself iu the affec tions of the nation! If Mr. Bryan wishes it to be distinct ly understood that heagrees with the re publicans on practically all points now at issue, but that he is still and always will be opQused to paying debts in 100- cent dollars. —Chicago Post. It'-" Mr. Bryan's disinterested sugges tion that Mr. Roosevelt should reiuse to receive favors from railway com panies is a reminder that the gentle man frwm Nebraska is still laying down rules and regulations for other people. The country will be safe so long as Mr. Bryan finds that he is not wh dly in accord with the o cupant of the white house.—Chicago Chronicio. THE CHADWICK TRIAL A Jury of 12 Men Is Secured and the Hearing of Evidence Has Begun. WITNESSES WERE EXAMINED Wednesday's Session of the Trial was Marked by Some Exciting Inci dents, Judge Tayler and Counsel on Both Sides Participating. Cleveland, March 7. —The trial ol Mrs. Cassie L. Chadwick for alleged violation of the national banking laws was commenced in the United States district coTtrt before Judge Tayler yesterday. The case was set for 9:30, and ten minutes prior to that time Mrs. Chad wick came into court in custody of two bailiffs. Sh« took a seat at a long table in the. center of the court room immediately behind her leading coun sel, Jay P. Dawley. Prosecuting Attorney Sullivan ad dressed the jury, saying the charge against Mrs. Chadwick was conspir acy against the United States in con nection with financial irregularities committed in various transactions with the Citizens' national bank of Oberlin. Andrew Carnegie was in the court room. The jury was accepted within two hours after the opening of court. It consists of one school teacher, one real estate dealer and ten farmers. Judge Tayler overruled ex-Judge Wing's motion to exclude all testi mony. The taking of the testimony of Ebenezer Southold was then begun. Southold identified five documents submitted as certificates of authority granted the Oberlin bank. Among these was the charter of the bank. E. H. Holter, a director of the Citi zens' national bank, Oberlin, identified the minutes of a directors' meeting. Holter testified ;.s to his acquaint ance with Spear and Beckwith. The capital of the Oberlin bank, he stated, was SOO,OOO. At this point Mrs. Chadwick motioned to Deputy Myrtle Nichols that she wished to leave the room. Proceedings were suspended. Cleveland, March B.—At Tuesday's session of the Chadwick trial rapid progress was made in the examination of witnesses. The proceedings were enlivened by the constant sparring for points by the lawyers. The testimony, all of it technical, was uninteresting. Nino witnesses were examined and the government had by Tuesday even ing disposed of ten of its 28 witnesses. Cleveland, March 9. —Sensational beyond any previous session of the Chadwick trial, the morning hours in the United States district court Wed nesday were enlivened by verbal com bats between the attorneys that at times became heated to the point of personalities and, for the first time in the trial, gave promise of what may be expected when the final battle of argument is reached. Another inci dent of a sensational nature was the lifting up of the defendant's voice for the first time during the trial. Mrs. Chadwick interrupted the dis trict attorney just before the close of the morning session. In a threat to bring in the Carnegie note, Sullivan said the government might try to bring in everything. "That's just what we want," ex claimed Mrs. Chadwick, leaning over the trial table toward Sullivan Though her voice was low-pitched, It was heard throughout the court room and caused a sensation. Exciting incidents came rapidly, Mrs. Chadwick, Judge Tayler and counsel on both sides, participating. But one witness was examined, Robert Lyon, receiver for the Oberlin bank. » Counsel fought hotly over the exclu sion and admission of testimony. District Attorney Sullivan scored a victory when Judge Tayler decided that drafts given by the Oberlin bank on a New York bank should be ad mitted as evidence. At 3:15 p. m. District Attorney Sul livan announced: "The government rests at this point." T. C. Doolittle, expert, accountant, was called by the defense. Cleveland, March 10. —Thursday af ternoon Judge Tayler overruled the defense's motion that he direct a ver dict in favor of Mrs. Chadwick. Mrs. Chadwick's fate, so far as the federal court is concerned, is hanging in the balance. Learned attorneys yesterday presented a mass of technical law points, intended to show to the court that the government had not suc ceeded in proving u case of conspiracy and that the case should be taken from the jury. The jury was out of court until to-day, lest it be influenc ed by the arguments. Cleveland, March 11.—The govern ment's opening address to the jury in the Chadwick case was made Friday morning by Thomas H. Gary, assist ant district attorney, and Francis J. Wing, the former judge, began his plea for the defense, finishing at 3:35 p. m. He was followed by Jay P. Daw ley for the defense. Does Not Intend to Resign. Columbus, 0., March 7.—State Pen sion Agent Jones, who, it is stated in Washington dispatches, will resign his position to make way for Congress man Warnock, of Urbana, who is said to have been endorsed by Senators Foraker and Dick, says that he has no intention to resign for any man and that he will retain his office until some other person comes to take it.

Coroner's Jury at Honolulu Says Mrs. Stanford's Death Was Due to Strychnine Poisoning. THE POLICE ARE BAFFLED. V, San Francisco Sleuths Acknowledge that They Have Exhausted Their Efforts to Find a Clue to the Poisoner or to His or Her Motive. Honolulu, March 11. —The coroner's jury has returned a verdict that Mrs. Jane L. Stanford died an unnatural death. The verdict says that death was due to strychnine poisoning, the poison having been introduced into a bottle of bicarbonate of soda with felonious intent by some person or persons to the jury unknown. San Francisco, March 11. —The fact that the coroner's jury at Honolulu decided that, Mrs. Stanford was mur dered by means of strychnine has added interest to the mysterious case. A conference was held here Friday between District Attorney Byington and Mountford Wilson, attorney for .'he late Mrs. Stanford, at which all the phases of the situation were dis cussed and it was determined to probe the matter to the bottom. No intima tion of the proposed course of action has yet been given out. All the present and former mem bers in the Stanford household are being closely watched. Chief of Police Spillane and De tective Burnett said that so far as the gathering of evidence in San Francisco regarding the case was con cerned the police department and lo cal detective agency had about ex hausted their efforts. Capt. Burnett said: "It is not true as published that the police have ar rived at a conclusion as to the motive behind thi3 crime. Neither is it true that detectives have been sent to Honolulu to bring Miss Berner back. So far as our investigation goes there is less evidence against Miss Berner than any of those who occupied the Stanford residence on January 14, the date of the first attempt to poison Mrs. Stanford." TRADE REVIEW. The Most Gratifying News Comes from the Iron and Steel Industry. New York, March 11. —R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says: Confidence has become more gen eral through resumption of outdoor work, opening of spring trade and ex pectation that the war will soon termi nate. Weather conditions are favor able in most sections of the country, and there is little interruption because of labor controversies. The most gratifying news of the week emanates from the iron and steel industry, where unprecedented output of pig iron is not productive of accumulated stocks. Other leading manufacturing operations are making steady pro gress, although larger orders would be welcomed by cotton mills and shoe shops. Traffic conditions are getting better, few complaints of delay being heard, and railway earnings for February were only 4 per cent, smaller than in 1904. Trade in woolen goods is quiet, but mills arc; busy. Failures this week numbered 244 in the United States, against 259 last year, and 25 in Canada, compared with 25 a year ago. A Duel to the Death. Johnstown, Pa., March 11. —Frank Marillo, an Italian contractor of Port age, and Antony Meyer, an employe, were fatally hurt in a fight which oc curred in a boarding house last even ing over Marillo's wife. Meyer fired his revolver twice at Marillo, one shot passing through his stomach, the other going through his head. Maril lo's weapons were a stiletto and a butcher's cleaver. Meyer was stabbed five times with the knife and his skull was fractured with the cleaver. An Italian sitting in the next room was shot in the head and is in a serious condition. A Terrific Collision. Warren, Pa., March 11.—Passenger train No. 0, eastbound, on the Phila delphia & Erie railroad, crashed into a light engine near Pittsfield Friday, wrecking both engines and jamming the cars together with terrific force. Among the injured were Miss Hattie Forbes, of Albion, N. Y., internally in jured, condition serious. T. B. Demp sey, Brookville, Pa., head and face cut, injured internally, may die. Kath erino Lyons, Corry, Pa., nose broken. Martin McLaughlin, engineer of the passenger train, scalded and burned, legs broken. Wiliam McKinley. Was Crippled for Life by Hazers.

The total length of the Russian rail way system on January 14 was 37.571 miles. In 1904 there were thrown open to traffic 679 miles. The final spike In the railroad from Canton to Samshul was driven the other day. But before it had been driven down 24 hours It was stolen by the Chi nese. English railroad directors give prize* to station masters who keep the best cul tivated flower beds at their respective stations. Some of the gardens thus maintained are beautiful. In 1898 the butter hauled over the Min neapolis & St. Louis railroad was 400,- 000 pounds. Last year it was nearly 14,- 000,000, the gain coming wholly from de velopments of creameries along the rail road. A report from Teheran, the capital of the shah's empire, is to the effect that the Persian government is negotiating with Russia for the purpose of building a ralroad from the Russian frontier to the capital of Persia. Traffic through the railway tunnel at Port Huron, Mich., will soon be handled by six electric locomotives. The third rail system will be used, with the rail placed at the side of the tunnel to avoid, accidents to workmen. Thomas Fitzgerald, who has been ap pointed general manager of the Balti more & Ohio railroad, entered the serv ice of that corporation as water boy in 1867 and has never left it. He was born, of Irish parents in Fairmont, W. Va. THE TRICKS Coffee Plays on Som#. It hardly pays to laugh before you are certain of facts, for it Is sometimes humiliating to think of afterwards. "When I was a young girl 1 was a lover of coffee but was sick so much the doctor told me to quit and I did, but after my marriage my husband begged me to drink it again as he did not think it was the coffee caused the troubles. "So I commenced it again and con tinued about 6 months until my stomach commmced acting bad and choking as if I Jjad swallowed some thing the size of an egg. One doctor said it was neuralgia and "One day I took a drive with my husband three miles in the country and I drank a cup of coffee for dinner. 1 thought sure I would die before I got back to town to a doctor. I was drawn double in the buggy and when, my husband hitched the horse to get me out into the doctor's office, misery came up in my throat and seemed to. shut my breath off entirely, then left all In a flash and went to my heart. The doctor pronounced it nervous, heart trouble and when I got home I was so weak I could not Bit up. "My husband brought my supper to my bedside with a nice cup of hot cof fee, but I said: 'Take that back, dear,. I will never drink another cup of cof fee if you gave me everything you are worth, for it Is Just killing me.' He and the others laughed at me and said: " 'The Idea of coffe« killing any body.' " 'Well.' I said, 'it is nothing else but coffee that is doing it.' "In the grocery one day my husband was persuaded to buy a box of Postum which he brought home and I made U for dinner and we both thought how good it was but said nothing to tha hired men and they thought had drank coffee until we laughed and told them. Well we kept on with Postum and it was not long before the color came back to my cheeks and I got stout and felt as good as I ever did in my life. I have no more stomach trouble and I know I owe it all to Postum in place of coffee. "My husband has gained good health on Postum, as well as baby and I.and we all think nothing Is too good to say about it." Name given by Postum Co . BatMi Creek. Mich.
