Senator JelT Davis calls William J. Bo an a "belted knight ' lie has earned the title, too, on two different ncciiHlons, and linn a line chance ol helng belted once more next fall. On the platform nt n Cooper Union meeting In New York city with Mr. Ilrjan were Mr. Gore, the blind United States Senator from Okla homa, and Senator Jeff Davis. The trio made up a remarkable combina tion. One mentnlly blind, unothcr physical!) blind, and the third af flicted with brainstorm. While the letter of the Delegate, reproduced In this Issue, recalls the unsuccessful fight to have the I'cail Harbor Item Included In the bill of the Naval Committee, his message to the Governor, stating that the bill exempting passengers from the oper ation of the coastwise shipping law has been favorably reported, will give considerable cheer to tho com munity. One light Is on the high road to success and the other has not jet been lost; so Hawaii may be sat isfied with the turn her affairs aro taking In Wnshtngton. The passage of tho bill whereby passengers to and from Hawaii will be allowed to trav el on foreign bottoms, will have the practical effect of adding several lino liners to the passenger fleet plying between this port and the Coast, and the prospects for nn enlarged tourist trade will brighten accordingly. . i Senator Tillman, who recently had n conference with John D. Rockefel ler, declares that "In un earlier age of tho world John D. Rockefeller probably would havo organized Ills tribesmen Into a militant force nud led them to the conquest of neighbor ing tribes. I take It that Jlr Rocke feller never would have been batls tled eo long as there was a known tribe which did not acknowledges his rule. He teems to be one of the men who come into the world's history tery few centuries who are dominat ed by a lust of power which must be satisfied at all costs." In these days, when the law la stronger than man, even the one who would enslave his I el low a through control of. tho neceJ tarles of life realizes that his Held of operations Is limited. THE UNfTED STATES SENATE. For tho first time In tho history of this country, tho United Stntes Sen ate consists of ninety-two members, Forty-six Commonwealths nro ropre- tentcd by two members each, and at roll-call It has been currently noted that they "aro nil present or account ed for." The control of legislative movements in tho upper chamber of the Nnttonnl Legislature will not be disturbed by the Increase In numbers at the present session, as It Is part or the unwritten law that new members modestly rofrnln from making them lelves conspicuous during tho eaily dayH of their terms. m iiiw i lauji ii i j BRYAN HOLDS ON.

RATHER THAN REMAIN IDLE, Army recruiting officers report n remarkable Increase In tho number of applicants for admission to the sen Ice within tho past few week J. This is the more remarkable, as In the latest annual roporl of the Secre tary of War, based presumably on tho t-ttitc of affairs existing tluce months ago, the matter of recruiting for tho army was made tho subject of some what anxious comment. Increased pay, better accommodation, and the offer of other privileges nnd advan tages were suggested by the Secre tary as necessary to render tho ser vice more nttrnctlvo to destrablo re cruits. Today young men nro offer ing their services faster than tho re cruiting officers can tnko care of them. Twice ond threo tlmc3 us many applicants nre received as here tofore, nu.l the class of men nppbing is mcj higher than nt any time since tho Spanish Wnr. This Hood of applications Is probably only n tem po! ary phenomenon. Tho fact of the matter doubtless Is that many young men nre finding themselves nut of emp!o)iuent just now, nnd whether from cholco or necessity they nro ready to take a term of service In tho army rather than remain idle.
