u that Col. Roosevelt will be the nomi

existence at that time, and he will be
permitted to write hit own platform.
The leaden know that there is not an
old-line Republican who can stand a
ghost of a show for election and they
will lake Roosevelt in preference to cer
tain prospect of losing out as before.
Republicans at Washington are discuss
ing the question and it teems the con
census of opinion that whether they
want him or not, strategy and a chance
for a look-in demands concessions. So
therefore we predict that the Colonel
will walk off with the nomination.

Tut tenth annual reunion of Morgan's
men closed yesterday at Olympia
Springs with 63 of the veterans present.
President Ttasil DuWe called Vice Presi
dent J. W. Alcorn, of Stanford, to the
chair, as his health was too bad to serve.
Horace M. Taylor was elected to suc
ceed the lamented Green H. Keller as
Secretary. Col. E. Poik Johnson de
livered a felling eulogism of Mr. Keller
which brought tears to the veterans
eyes. A letter from Major O. S. Tenny,
of Lexington, was read expressing his
regrets on h is inabli'.y to attend on ac
count of illness and adding that "when
we shall be called to cross the river and
rest under the shade of the trees, may
we one and all be prepared to train un
der the Captain of our Salvation, where
sin and sorrow never come and parting
is not known." Major Tenny is 93
years of age, but still retains his mental
and to a great degree his physical quali
ties. He is considered Lexingtons grand
old man.
It is sad to think how rapidly Mor
gan's men are passing away. They were
great in war, have done their full duty
in peace and inspired the world by their
presence. Wherever bravery, physical
endurance and good citizenship are men
tioned, Morgan's men will ever be held
as examples for all of us to emulate.
Pity it is that in the very nature of
tilings they cannot be with us much
much longer but until they go, may
every comfort of life be theirs and then
a heppy reunion with those of their
comrades who have gone before where
the wicked cease from troubling and the
wearv are at rest.
Toe New Haven wreck was one of the
most disastrous in years, and it appears
that it was entirely due to carelessness.
One section of a train stopped and an
other following it lees than a minute be
hind plowed into the sleepers killing 20
and injuring 50 or more persons. Or
dinarily trains do not follow each other
closer than ten minutes. Of the killed
were Dr. J. B. Marvin, his wife and
daughter, Miss Martha. The doctor was
one of the most prominent specialists in
the country, whose loss cannot be rilled
The New Haven management has been
in bad order fir years. This catastro
phe caps the climax and may result in
placing the lault with the men higher
up, instead of as usual on some unim
portant employee. The wholesale mur
der calls for prompt investigation and
condign punishment.
After repudiating a former interview,
Caleb Powers, issued a statement from
Winchester Wednesday that while he
was certain he could be renominated, he
would not run for. Congress again, inti
mating that he was out of the political
game forever, Mr. Powers treatment
since he has been at Washington is not
conducive of a desire to remain there.
Ha has been ignored and snubbed by
most everybody who can see the mark
of Cian ou his forehead. A partisan
governor relieved Powers of certain pun
ishment for conspiracy to assassinate
Governor Goebel, but no earthly power
can relieve him of the awful penalty of
a guilty conscience.
Tub government lias heretofore allow
ed to go free of tax the cigars smoked
by the employees of the factories, but
the grant has been so much abused by
the giving away of the "free smokes"
that Secretary McAdoo has issued an
order that no employee shall have more
than 20 cigars a week that ate untaxed
and manufacturers are required to keep
a strict account. It appears that the
Democratic administration is determin
ed that there shall be no graft anywhere
big or little. Such a course is bound to
make enemies for it but there is where
the people will love it for the enemies it
makes.
There were 700 entries in the Nebras
ka fair baby show. Pity the judges and
congratulate the State of Bryan that
there appears to be no race suicide there.

There is a strong effort being made
to delay action on the currency bill
which the President is so anxious shall
become the law at this session. Senator
Works, of Massachusetts, has offered a
resolution directing the currency and
banking committee to prepare and pre
sent a bill at the December session. This
will put the matter squarely up to the
Senate, where the reactionaries seem in
the majority. There is no reason that
the bill should not be acted on, and the
Administration will fight the resolution
vigorously.
Speaker Champ Clark has been up
in Maine telling the voters how much
the new tariff bill will reduce the cost
of living. He did his part in putting it
through the House, but the Senate is
taking its time in passing the bill. If
'twere well to be done 'twere well to be
done quickly. Let the poky old Sena'
tors get a move on themselves and make
the bill a law. If they do not many of
us will be unable to hold out The high
cost of living has almost made us reach
the jumping off place. '
Tiiehe must be money in making
guns and the munitions of war when the
Krupps, of Germany, can offer the Chi
nose republic a bonus of fifteen millions
of dollars cash for the exclusive privil
ege of selling their product in that coun
try. By the way. it is said that this
concern gets up war scares in order to
sell cannon, guns, etc. It is now under
investigation by the German govern'
menl on the charge, which if proven
should put it out of business.
Prof. T. J. Coates, rural school in
spector, who recently conducted the
Madison County Institute, says that he
finds that the teachers all over the State
are very defective in reading and that
he will issue a bulletin teaching them
the proper way. Bad reading is not con
fined to teachers. The reading clerks in
Congress get 110 a day to read bills and
other papers, but they drawl and drone
so a Philadelphia lawyer could not tell
what he was reading about.
Couktt JcrxiK Ralph Gilbert, of
Shelby county, has been to Washington
and found no evidence that his father,
the late Congressman, had received
money from any corporation, or did oth
er act unbecoming an official. By the
way. Judge McDowell had not been
seen at Washington at last accounts, al
though he said he would go there and
clear up things. We are afraid be will
never be able to do so. ,
