Now that an umbrella trust has been formed we suppoae that the price of “rain sticks" will be "htMed.” Mr. William Squires traveled (lx thousand miles to have Mr. Thomas Hums punch him Into Innocuous dcs- uetudo In exsctly two minutes. Tho 8hfeveport Journal Is moved to remark that “John D. Rockefeller Is n mighty small individual when the Bubpena servers get behind him." While Harry Orchard was on the Btand telling of his lurid career lu tho West, why didn’t somebody think to ask him about Charlie Ross? Wo wonder if General Bell thought he waa ringing In an alarm whon bo put the country on notice that “there is something wrong with tho army?" After reading of ttio second defeat of Memphis by the Pirates, The Com mercial-Appeal calmly remarks: It won’t do for Memphis to win all the games. Maybe Atlanta did not put some Crirapa Into Southern League records of attendance on the Glorious Fourth. Incidentally the locals hitched up sev eral notches toward the leadership. This from The Buffalo News: Secretary Taft declares that work cm the Panama canal la proceeding In a satisfactory manner. If the contrary proves to be true It will go hard with the secretary’s presidential boom. Apropos of the Fourth of July. The Columbia State remarks: "The small boy can never under stand why firecrackers are forbidden la certain portions of tbe city on the glorious Fourth when thunder storms are allowed to roam at will." Says The Brooklyn Standard-Union: In Kentucky the other day a man was promptly knocked down for drinking Ills mint Julep with a spoon. Ken tuckians are rather nice about their drinking etiquette, and such a gauch- erie as drinking Julep in that way meets with severe condemnation. In answer to General Bell’s rather vague statement that “there Is some thing wrong In tbe army, and an ef fort will be made In Washington to correct It." Secretary Taft says the army is all right so far as be knows, e -.trust tbst General Bell will now to enlighten the country. GREAT REPUBLICANS TURNING TO DEMOCRATS. The remarkable thing In this remarkable era of American politics is the convincing and converting force which Democratic Ideas are coming to have upon the highest men ’In the militant rank of the Republican party. Nothing more remarkable than this has been noted in any political era of our national existence. Wo have called attention more than once to the powerful pulses of practical democracy which are throbbing In the veins and In the public acts of the strenuous president of the United States. This Is a fact of general acceptance and of general congratulation In tbe rank and file of the party In these Southern states and throughout the Democratic area of tbe country. But It Is not only Into the convictions of the president that Demo cratic principles and policies have found their way, but there are other great Republicans, some In harmony and some out of harmony with the president, who are Instancing conversions no less significant and re markable. Here for Instance Is Senator Philander Knox, of Pennsylvania, who was but Just now the attorney general of Mr. Roosevelt's cabinet. Senator Knox In his address to tbe graduating class of the Yale Law 8cbool said: "The national power of regulation should only be Invoked when the necessity for regulation exists." This Is a little stronger Indorsement of states’ rights than Mr. Bryan's proposal that the Federal government shall own snd operate the trunk line railroads and It seems to be almost In direct opposition to the centralising suggestions with which Senator Knox’s late chief, the president of (be United States, is credited. And then the senator answering his own question In tbe negative goes on to say: Is tho mere production of goods commerce? If It Is not. then can congress regulate such production within a state under tbe con stitutional power to regulate Interstate commerce? Which leads The New York World to ask is this better or worse Democratic doctrino than Bryan's notions about national child labor laws? In another part of bis speech 8enator Knox said: Tbe power to regulate Interstate commerce does not extend to the laying of an arbitrary embargo upon the lawfully produced, harm less products of a state, nor to tbe right to defeat the policy of a state as to Its own Internal affairs. And The World again Inquires whether this la better or worse Dem ocratic doctrine than Bryan's policy of a compulsory federal license for all corporations that wish to engage In Interstate commorce. Again, Senator Knox quoted from the decision of tbe United States supremo court In the lottery cases In which It was affirmed: The power of congress to regulato commerce among the states, although plenary, cannot be deemed arbitrary, since It Is subject to such limitations or restrictions ns are prescribed by the constitution. And Tbo World promptly asks whether this Is better or worso Dem ocratic doctrine than Bryan's theory that congress may arbitrarily decide when a corporation Is a trust and exclude Its products from Interstate commerce. But most emphatic of all Is this statement of Senator Knox: Tho constitution Is not to perish at the hands of an Impassioned phrase maker. "How, then," says The World, "does this apply to Mr. Roosevelt? How to Bryan and to Meant?'- There can bo no doubt In the tact that this statement from Knox appears to strike definitely both at Roosevelt and Root In their vlows of federal power. And It Ipdlcates If It la Knox's honest belief a courage and candor In expressing It which we bad not been led to expect from ono whoso policy was so philandering In the mat ter of railroad and coal trusts of Pennsylvania. But it cannot be denied that In that particular prtnclplo of the Dem ocratic party called states' rights over which such a tremendous furore Is being made at the present time, It presents tho extraordinary spectacle of a Pennsylvania Republican expounding a Democratic principle with more fidelity than Is shown by tbe acknowledged leader ot the Democratic party. Tbe Yale speech tempts The World to ask If Senator Knox Is a Dem ocrat. Beyond mere captious questions arising' from this utterance there comes the reflection that the Democratic, princlplo Is growing so fast In thoughtful minds and Is being emphasized so largely by radical depar tures from It on the part ot Senator Root more especially that wo may well doubt whether or not the barriers ot party are going to be main tained, and above all whothor tho time has not come for that reorganisa tion that will permit Republicans like Knox snd Roosovelt to Join with real Democrats like Bryan and Culberson and Hoko Smith In a new party that will carry Democratic principles to a great and permanent triumph In the republic's life. THE TRAGEDIES OF THE FOURTH. Out of the Joyous events and pleasant recreations of July Fourth there comes a note ot pathos and of tragedy. llcoords compiled for the day by Tbe Chicago Rocord-Herald show that ,i( people mot death and 1,471 were Injured. This record Is perhaps far from complete, for, even with the vast and comprehensive newsgatlicr- Ing machinery of Tho Record-!lerald, scores ot deaths snd hundreds of wounded In Isolated places are not Included. Two things apparently account for tho larger part of the casualties— the dld-not-know-lt-was-loaded revolver and tho giant firecracker. There Is nothing concqlvable more deadly than a revolver In tho hands of an In experienced person. The very fact that a largo percentage of deaths acci dental from this sourco are followed by the excuso "I did not know It was loaded," Is argument that tho weapon was In tho hands of either an Irre sponsible or Inexperienced person. Rigid legislation Is needed against tho giant firecracker. Throughout tho union on July tho Fourth and through the South on Christmas the sum total of dead and maimed children from the giant cracker Is appalling. Nobody would deny the boy his fun and hit noise on such holidays, but It Is notblug short of criminal to place In his hands Instrumsnts almost as deadly as a stick of dynamite. Tho trouble Is that the country will stand horrified for tho moment over tho vfctln|i of a public celebration, snd voice a protest against tt. But In a few days tt will all bo forgotten and remembered no more until another occasion offers Its quota of dead and broken victims. Human llfo seems to bo about the cheapest thing imaginable now. GEORGIA'S RURAL MAIL CARRIERS. No convention held In Atlanta within Its history so directly concerns the masses of the people as tho one In this city on July Fourth—the Ru ral Letter Carriers' Association ot Georgia. A fow years ago only rural mall service was Inaugurated by the gov ernment. The cities had long enjoyed special facilities for the receiving and the distribution of Its mall. Tho farmer got his mall sb he could. Often the little postofflee was miles away, and If moll came to the country homo once n week the family considered Itself fortunate. The rural mall service changed this order. Now tbe farmer gets his mally dally at hia door. It has worked marvelous changes within a few years. It has robbed the farm of Its loneliness, and linked It to the big world. Tbo farmer may have his dally paper, his magaslnes and his dally market reports. It has placed him In direct touch with all the arteries of trade, and given hint an Independence he did not dream of less than a dozen years ago. And all credit Is duo the splendid body ot men who make this rural service a perfect system. They toil In the heat of the blazing sun. In the snow and Ice of winter. In the rain, the Btorm and the cold. The simple annals of the life of one of these carriers through a year would form a rec ord of endeavor and devotion to duty unexcelled by meu In any other pro fession. . And It Is the devotion and sacrifice of these men that has made the rural mall service a permanent and fixed Institution In the growth and development of the country. Its value to the South cannot be estimated. It has lifted the profession of farming as no other factor has, and by linking the farm to the great ouUldo world, has kept thousands of strong young men tilling the soil. Atlanta honored herself In entertaining these 500 rural man carriers. She was proud to have them, proud to hear of their work and willing to lend any aid possible to lighten their burdens. The Genreia association is In flnf shape. Under the wise guidance of < President Fred L. White It has become an organization for mutual ad vancement and help. The leadership has passed Into the hands of another capable man now, George DeBrosse, of Statesboro. The association has been fortunate In having unusually efficient men to guide It, and this pol icy will continue under the new men Just elected. Georgia has 1,462 rural mall carriers, and no finer body of public ser vants can be found In the union than this' army of men. "A FRAGMENT OF HISTORY”—WHICH MAY SHORTLY REPEAT ITSELF. The New York World, In Its issue of July 4, significantly relates the following “fragment of history": Thirty-nine years ago today a Democratic national convention met In Tammany Hall. Horatio Seymour, former governor of New York, was made permanent chairman, Mr. Seymour having repeatedly refused to be a candidate or to allow his name to be presented to the conven tion. George H. Pendleton, of Ohio, was the leading candidate, but he was unable to command the necessary two-thirds vote. After a-long and tedious deadlock General McCook on the announcement of'the twenty-first ballot arose and In the name of the Ohio delegation de manded the nomination of Horatio Seymour. When the applause had died away nnd order waa restored Mr. Sey mour advanced to the front of the platform and said: “Oentlemen of the Convention: The motion Just made by the gen tleman from Ohio excites In my mind the most mingled emotions. I have no terms In which to express my gratitude for the magnanimity of bis state and for the generosity of this convention. I have no terms In which to tell of my regret that my name has been brought before this convention. Ood knows that my life and all that I value most In life I would give for the good of my country, which I bellevo to be Identified with our own party. “I do not stand here as a man proud of his opinions or obstinate In his purposes, but upon a question of duty and of honor I must stand upon my own convictions against the world. Gentlemen, when I said here at an early day that honor forbado my accepting a nomination by this convention, I meant 1L When In the course of my Intercourse with those of my own delegation and my friends I said to them that I could not be a candidate, I meant It. And now permit me here to say that I know, after all that has taken place, I could not receive the nomination without placing not only myself but the great Democratic party In a false position. * • * "Gentlemen, I thank you, and may God bless you for your kindness to me, but your candidate I cannot be." Notwithstanding this emphatic refusal on the basis ot duty and honor, the convention proceeded to nominate Horatio Seymour by ac clamation. And Mr. Seymour—accepted the nomination. The World's meaning In reviving at this time the above bit of political history Is obvlofis. What Horatio Seymour did thirty-nine years ago an other, In a like situation may do today. Horatio Seymour was known as "a man of his word," and tho declaration of his decision not to become a candidate or accept a nomination was Just as clear and emphatic as tbe English language could make It And when his name was presented, and n demand made for his nomination, his response from the platform was fervid and dramatic. He declared he could not In honor accept the nomi nation. To do so would be to place himself and tbe great Democratic party In a false position. “Upon a question ot duty and honor, I must stand upon my own convictions, against the whole world," gives an Idea of the emphasis with which he spoke. And yet tbe convention proceeded with hts nomination by acclama tion, and Horatio Seymour accepted it. In the face of the accomplished fact, his protest waa as nothing. It would be difficult to conceive of any other outcome of a similar sit uation. , And history may shortly repeat Itself. INDEPENDENCE A few patriots signed the Declaration of Inde pendence; a small army won the victory for our Republic; but millions today celebrate with pride and pleasure the glorious heritage of liberty. However, in these commercial days a man can best win his independence by establishing his cred it and accumulating a good bank account, which will be enjoyed by himself and in after years make grateful the family he leaves behind.

Look Into the fashionable restaurants of the great cities, or bearkeu to the between- meals conversation of passengers award ocean liners, nnd you will be compelled to ask whether, after all, a considerable num ber of people In this world do not live to eat. Tbe unabashed Interest of some per son* In the dinner table, and tbelr serious concern over the vlnnds, savors of unre- flneinent to n westeru-bred person, who nas been tnuht to believe that the mere grntlfl cation of bis physical wants, while nntu rally Important, is scarcely n subject for conversation In polite society. The truth Is, however, that the number of persons who will go hungry for the sake of su ideal Is quite small; the emancipated Jews were not among them. When the pnngs of hunger attacked them, they forgot all about tbe Joys of liberty, about the mar velous crossing of the Ited Sea, about the miracles of the plagues. n1»out the Pass over and about the twelve sprlugs at Film, Egypt. They preferred bread with beat’ Ings to hunger with honor. "A Man Must Live.” So long ns there are scores of thousands of men and women In this land who pay the price of dishonor, of the stifling of conscience, nnd of connivance at actual crime, for the sake of holding their present positions, we must go lightly upon these newly-delivered slaves. The argument,' A man must live," Is the commonest Justifica tion for unmeasured erll-doltig. Because a man thinks he “must have” a certain so cial position, a fine home, fashionable clothes, elaborate meals, nnd a variety of entertainments, positions of trnat are vio lated, banks are looted, widows and or- E hsn* are robbed, tbe laws of the state are roken, nnd a stream of dishonesty, shame and suffering I* let loose Unou the world. And all because men of twlny, like the Is raelites of old. have not the wit or the stamina to nut first things first. Men 'must live” only If they can live ns men of honor. One ailment of these wanderers, ns of persons not a few today, was their Inabil ity to take long views, either backward or forward. They could not sec beyoml the present. When I shivered In the cold of Mnnchurla I thought that .1 would never again grumble at heat; but. lu. India a temperature of 180 degrees smote me just as hard ns If I had never known sero weather. Past and future were blotted out for these Israelites by tbe consciousness that they were hungry; If only they con Id be fed, they foolishly reasoned, they would mind no other ills. Facing tho Vorltloa, Jehovah promised to rnln bread from heaven f or them day by day—bread In tbe morn- ng, and. occasionally at least, meat In the evening, it was to come day by day, suggesting that the spiritual life can not be sustained on past experiences any more than the body on stale innnns. Of course al Ithls was a m!racle--* , Mnnna?” or “What Is It?” providence is so Important that God will work any number of miracles to maintain It. Back of the fact, and not to he oh- •cured by It, lies tbe truth. Ooil will care for-bit owit even If ho has to send the Augel Gabriel down from htgheat heaven to act as one of earth 1 * messengers. "The Lord will provide,” Is tbe homely tested teaching or this event snd of tha history of all those whom Jehovah has call ed his friends throughout tho centuries. As to the tnnnna, we can only repeat the exclamation of those who first found tt— ”Wbnt Is It?" It wo* plaluly not a nat ural product; we only know why It was sent and the purpose It served. When God's people are In need he brings out of bis In finite treasure house stores new and old for tbelr help. They think lightly of him who say that he can do no more than no already has done; Jehovah Is n God of ex- haustless resources. Whatever the new con ditions, whatever the peculiar clrcuru- K nees, ho enu Ikj trusted to Indicate his rdshlp uud to take care of his own. 8oma Crumbs. God's givings are always enough. Heaven always bolds help for earth's hun gers. The manna for seven days fell In six; for the keeping of the Sstrtmtli Is as Impor tant as the feeding of the body. A portion of the innuna was preserved In the ark ns n memorial; the memory of the past Is u help In the present. They who trust God for breud are likely to be given meat also. Grumbling Is not ouly bad form; It ll Ir religious os well. W.J.NORTHEN TALKS E QUEST REV. H. J. LUNGER.

Is dying, and nearly a score of other persona were severely JnJured In a collision of three electric cars at East Providence yes terday. The accident Is said to have been due to the failure of the brakes. ZIMMER TO RAISE FROGS FOR MARKET In addition to operating hia hotel, the Kimball, Will V. Zimmer la pre paring to go Into the fanning business on a rather large scale, with a frog In. dustry on the tftde. Thursday Mr. Zimmer purchased through Faver & Black, a tract of land containing 100 acres, located on the eastern aide of the city and just Iwyond the present corporate limits. This tract Mr. Zimmer expects to turn into a model truck, cattle and dairy farm with frog nnd fish ponds to fur nish the delicacies. Mr. Zimmer Is a practical farmer as well as a good hotel man, and In ad dition to raising vegetables, frogs and fUh. will supply his farm with a herd of tine Jersey*, a herd of swine and a »umber of the beat breed of chickens. Mr. Zimmer will erect a comfortable bungalow on the farm where he will entertain hia frltnda at all seasons of' th“ year 1 remarked. In commenting upon one of Ills BoyvJIle quarrels, "I don t know why It Is, but somehow I never get to bo really good friends with a fellow until I have licked him.” There Is n philosophy lying back of tho youngster's remarks. Jehovah could never get along with his chosen people un til be had shown them Ids sovereignty, nnd that they were dependent wholly upon him. Now once again In the wilderness, s* In Egypt nnd at the Red Sen. the Israelites had to be brought face to face with tho great verity, thot It Is God who provides. This was the lesson which was being taught, "line upon line, precept upon pre cept.” In that forty-year session of the Wil derness school. Tne Jews had to learn, be fore they could become In truth a nation, thnt Jehovah alone was Ood. nnd that He was tbelr God, tbelr guide, their protector, tbelr provider. Proud man has to !>e made aware of his Insufficiency* enrth Is utterly dependent upon heaven, in the face of a storm, n drought, a flood, he Is as helpless ns a eockleshell upon the wind-tossed ocean. To learn tbe existence of a heaven It Is worth while to feel the shaking of earth beneath one's feet. . * M _ „ The tremendous and vital truth of fi«l i providence may not be obscured by second ary causes. What If He chooses to send our dally bread by tho way of the wheat field, the miller nnd the bake oven. Instead of by rain from heaven? As Moltblo D. llnlHMick sang: “Rack of tho loaf Is the snowy flour, And back of the flour the mill; And back of the mill Is the wheat and tbe shower. _ . And. tho sun nnd the Father s will. Greedy and Grumbling. In certain continental countries the news papers bnve "prison editors,” cheap hire lings, who bear the legs! title of editor, but whose sole duty It Is to go to Jail for the paper's offenses against the rigorous laws affecting the freedom of the press. This sort of editorial scapegoat in list be t con venience; for It Is In human nature to want to blame all that goes amiss upon some- body. Now those ungrateful slaves, “the whole congregation the children of Israel,” turned against tbelr lenders us soon ns they felt the plnrh of hardship. Hear them: "Would that we had died by the band of Jehovah In the land of Egypt, where we sat by the flesh pots, where we did eat bread to the full: for ye have brought us forth Into this wilderness to kill this Whole assembly with hunger.” Poor Moses. He deserves the sympathy which every great leader nlwnvs deserve* and rarely receives; ami especial cominls- ration should Ik» extended to him because he had to work with an uncommonly for getful, ungrateful, unappreciative mu! re hellion* aggregation of followers.
