It !• virtuous in the Repub licans to do the same thing because tha Republican party la made up or good and patriotic men such as him self and Mr. Taft.

As matter of fact such a charge would h pfcposterutif. fur Mr. Grave* would re fuse to stoop to any such menial no Hiifuivuu.il-. lubor. What we are tryin say I* that Mr. flearst' * ‘ nd pol for ••lor# Roosevelt should be re turned to the chair for the noxt night years. Homo of the keenest character read er* nod most compel' nt Judge* of hu man nature proved tho most difficult In our rcc«nt political history. In the face of the reflated declaration* of President Roosevelt, to convince that deep down In hts heart ho did not have ultimate designs on a prolonged and unprecedented tenure of the Pres idential office, with the nomination of Mr. Taft their suspicions were ap- parently put to ganme. Rut In the light of Mr. Longworth's pronounce- mant thasa deacredlted crltlca will doubtlesa fed tha thrill that usually •coompanlaa tha axpreaslon "1 told you ao." It la fair to assume that Mr. Long- worth'a announcement, coming from tha bosom of tha Praslilent'a family circle, will not bn visited with the se vere disapproval of the President Whatever ha may or may not say about It, the announcement In Itself Is tentative and Its effect to draw out a demonstration aa to his dhanevs for another double term In tha Presidency la unavoidable. Should It ao result there will ba no powar In tho Presi dent's logic to dlsabuss the minds of hta Judges of the belief that the Pres ident deliberately and profoundly •rhatnad to this and. Ills role aa Warwick In naming hta aycreator In ao far aa ha could do ao by naming tha Republican candidate for tha Presidency to succeed him and hla use of the Federal patronage not only to name the candidate but In the at tempt to elect him In effect hears out tha Judgment of those who would not give, him credit for willingly resigning hta hold on the reins of government. Mr. Ixmgworth'a utterance taken In connection with tha President's course creates tha presumption that Mr. Roosevelt selected his successor and brought alt hts official power to bear to elect him for the well-defined ulte rior object of circumventing the third term precedent and finally enjoying the fruits of n violation of it. If by such machination he could put h|s prosy In the White House for one or two terms and have the aforesaid pros> to similarly use the office and It* patronagv to bring him again Into power It can readily he seen how he might by euoh deep cunnnlng and In direction break down the constitu tional and traditional elective tenure of the Presidency and In effect con •tl^ute himself President or dictator Hryan. In response, gold that such aii extraordinary argument was bound to embarrass Mr. Roosevelt's oarty .associates, and then Mr. Taft felt forced to speak In order to show t.tat he was not embarrassed. En deavoring to find a better argument, and to reflect upon the Intelligence of the people legs bluntly. Mr. Taft said: The chief objection to the pub lication of contributions before the . • lection I* that It inak** certain that In the heat of th»* controversy the motives of those who contrl- hutc to pay the loKlIirtiutc ex ponas* of tho • ampnign would lie iiiRi oiiMtrucd, perverted and rnls- ‘ * After tin- over and t*he expend I- •ontrlhutlons are pub- temptation to mlsrep- The .

Mr. Taft Is wrecked upon Charyhdls, for *he confesses that th« great thing to consider Is not the good of the country but the feeling* of tho con- trlhutors to tho Republican campaign fund. Why these contributors Indi vidually should so greatly prefer to he pilloried to the public view after the election than before he does not ex plain. The only thing made plain Is that the Republican party would nat urally prefer to keep back dlsagreea- exposures of every sort Until It been triumphantly returned to power and can afford to laugh at them for four years more. How Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. Taft must have squirmed under tha hard naceaslty of explaining that for which It ts Impossible to Invent any Just, satisfactory nr even plnuslhle reason! The Democrats easily have the best of the argument and nothing can shake their position. When Hryan hired that the trust magnates are supporting the Republican party be cause "the ox knoweth hts owner and tha asa tils master's rrlb." and when ha explained the unalterable opposi tion of tho Republicans to publishing ntrtbutlons on the ground that "they love darkness rather than light be cause their deeds are evil" ha said what Is and what will ba hereafter acknowledged na the (Inal word on this question. for life.

The Telegraph aoma tlma since In timated lla opinion that Harper's Weekly, which alerted out with a sat purpose to ridicule Hryan and work for his defeaL had manifested symp toms of weakening In spite of its de termination. Tho political events of tha past week have not tended to re instate tha purpose of .this publication In Its own good graces In faot, In reviewing thcaa events tha editor com pllmcnts Hryan aa about tho only one of the prominent participant! "whi ho* maintained a commendable even neaa of temper under somewhat ac stress." Reviewing President Roosavelt'a Monday morning answer to and attack on W. J. Hryan and tha Democratic campaign management. Editor Harvey aaya: Now. the only baste of the Pres ident's assertion that HOO.Oftft was found In the Democratic treasury, and that Haskell had tried to bribe Mon nett, was a mero statement to that affect by Mr. Ilearst. whom the President him self over and over again baa de- nounoed aa wholly untrustworthy, has com pa ml to a skunk, and has pronounced the Virtual assassin of McKinley. Haskell seems to ba a poor lot, but not a particle of evidence has been produced to support the bribery story. On the contrary, every person who might be supposed to know. Including Mennctt himself, bad denied It flatly before the President had made hts "Incidental" remark. The 1100.000 yarn was too ellty. of course, for even words from any other source. Even the Hearst papers bad taken tt hack before the President spoke. Not that re traction was necessary. No per son possessing a grain of sense ever believed for an Instant that Messrs. Ryan and Belmont had kept thla large sum of moi\*T to turn over to Messrs. Mack and Haskell for use In a Bryan cam paign. Did the President believe tt? Not for a second He has many more grains of sense than one. He knew, of course, that the etory was a lie. And yet he gave to tt the sanction of hla great au thority. hts great position, his reuptatton aa a man of probity pledged, above all things, to fair aa well as honest dealing. Now, this may be effective campaign ing or may not. It may help Taft or may not. we don't know.

Dr. Hannls Taylor contributes to the October number of The North Ameil- can Review an nbl* paper on "The Speaker and His Powers" Dr. Taylor traces historically tho rise of th< speaker's powers, and ho Indicates cer tain unfortunate consequences of hli existence and exorclau. Ho make* j novel suggestion as to a method by which Importance and effectivenona might be added to tho work of ■ gross, namely, that the Swiss practice might be adopted whereby the members of the cabinet should have the right before congress and advocate such measures aa they desired to liavo pas* ed Into law. without having a right to vote, and without being compullnd to resign If congress took adverse ac tion »P°n their policy. Dr. Taylor calls attention to the constantly In creasing number of bills Introduced In congress, the number introduced In the first congress being 189 as against S4. 824 In tho fifty-ninth eongrosa. Dr Taylor says: "As the legislative business of this country has grown In extent and com plexity, the pressure upon tho primi tive machinery of the house of repre sentative lias Increased until at last a crisis has been reached. If so home ly a simile Is permissible, the grow ing business of tho house nmy he lik ened to tho growing business In a nar row stream flowing through a Umber region In which the timber-cutlers In crease every year. In such n region, no matter how great the glut, tho chan nel must he kept open, so that a cer tain number of plecos may be forced down the stream every year. As the house Itself has never attempted s reorganise Us machinery In a aclentlflc way as to meet new conditions, the one crude and empirical expedient so far resorted to to keep the channel open has consisted of the arming of the speaker, from time to time, with Titanic powers. As the glut of leg islative Umber In the channel has In creased. Mr. Speaker has been en dowed with first one abnormal power and then another. In order that nation al legislation may not cense altogctS* er. Recognition for the passage of hills by unanimous consent arose when the pressure of business became ao great that they could not be reached on the calendar In the regular order of business. Then, ns an expedient to alleviate the ever-growing difficulty, were adopted tho Reed rules In the fif ty-first congress, from which time the steadily Increasing power* of the speaker may be definitely dated. The fact that the Reed rules were sub stantially readopted under Speaker Crisp should be conclusive proof that they were the outcome of conditions that present equal difficulties to the leaders of both parties."

So long aa no material change takes ptaco In the mcaey market and present dividend rates nr# maintained, many stocks will not loof dear at their present price. As to tha chances of maintaining dividends the outlook la not entirely sat isfactory. A few reductions have taken place and a few other* may follow. Thu* rar th© railroads by means of strenuous economy have nvbldcd any radical cuts In dividends; but such economies have been pushed to the limit by deferring re pairs and outlays that must now ho met, and unless revenue begins to Increase dividends must b© further cut.
