TEDDY THE FIRST AND KAISER SILL THE ONLY TWO PEAS POD. IN THE Teddy Has Won Out Conference Matter, is Raising Cain in Washington, D. C., the first and Kaiser are i><>d on the Peace and the Kaiser Europe. June 28.—Teddy Bill the second, about the only two peas in tbe at the present writing from the nation’s capital. Teddy has got the two warring nations together, and got them to agree to accept Washington as the place of meeting for the peace conference, and his work in this di- reciton has amazed all the diplomats of the old world. Why, it was plumb easy. All he had to do was to sound the two scrappers and get them to assent to a note from him asking them if they did not think that it was lime to go "from labor to refresh ments,” and then send them such a note asking them to be good little boys in the interest of peace and humanity. They were both dead wil ling to quit, and only waited for some man to use a good, old fashion ed brand of Americanism and straight forwardness without all the circum locution of diplomacy. Teddy did this and he won out. On the other hand the Kaiser is raising all sorts of Cain over in Europe, and the first thing he knows lie will have strained the patience of the French nation to the breaking point and a world war will be the result. These two men just now are in the limelight and one of them is being praised and the other is being cussed. The distin- guished president of the United States does some tilings well, and again, he does somethings that are humorous, if the comic muse ever condescends to mere history, she will find material for humor in contrasting the attitude of Mr. Roosevelt toward the provision- ■ l governments id' Panama and of Norway. Acting Secretary Loomis, we need harly recall, inquired solici tously about the condition of the re public of Panama some little time be fore the pang of mock revolution had brought the bantling commonwealth into the world. It was on tins ocea- sian that the socialists . . anced the theory that Mr. Roosevelt’s dominant quality was celerity. Turning from Panama to Christiania, these same pludits may draw the profound in ference that circumstances alter cases, and that even celerity has its good an.l bad days. If ever there was a de facto government, it. is Norway’s; she has a parliament in session, an executive council of ministers, an army and a navy. Moreover, it was known some days before tbe (•(‘solu tion <U posing King Oscar that seces sion was as good as accomplished, and devil a cablegram came from "Loomis Acting.” All of which seems to point to a culpable negligence in the Norwegians in failing to keep Washington officially posted as to the resolution scheduled. .Or is lx)om- is' hesitation. due merely to a natural reluctance not to be caught again by the difference in time? In any case the comic muse might do worse than ponder the cases of Pana ma and Norway. with the tariff. Then our men will pull for an internal revenue tax to supply the deficit. It’s a pretty pro gram and the Democrats will help us along in it.” When it was suggested to him that the railroad men would not stand for their program, he said; “What can they do? Our men are stirring up things so as to get every body against them. We are creating adverse opinion wherever we can, and rely on the president td help us out. It’s our agents instead of the people who are howling for railway rate regulation.” This is authentic and comes as straight as an arrow from the inner circles of the ‘‘stand pat” Republicans. The people can see what chance they have with a Republican congress and a Republican administration that waves whenever the leaders snap their fingers. Charles A. Edwards.

And while the statements that the plan for an extra session ot congress has been abandoned do not come directly from the president, they suggest a heap of thinking along well-established Ilooscveltian lines. Already, to* conciliate congress, he had postponed the extra session to cold weather. Now it occurs to him that three weeks is an adequate time for so great a matter. In other par lance, what he did before to oblige, he does again because he must. In this way two bites can be made at the chprry of compromise. It is possible to'believe that the president is as keen as ever to tlx railroad rates, but we shall doubtless continue to enjoy the spectacle of a chief magistrate in domitably set upon curbing the rail roads—whenever nobody objects. The true inwardness of this whole conten tion for railway rate regulation is that it is a scheme of the “stand pat” Republicans and they are using the Democrats of the house to pull their chestnuts out of the fire. They are fixing things to impose further direct taxation on the people by the next congress as a means ot nut only sup plying the deficit in the government revenues, but of continuing to the trusts their enormous profi through absurdly high protective traiffs is the purpose of the “stand-pat” schemers. The tar iff-fattened mil lionaires have killed off tho income tax effectually. They are now trying to stave off tariff revision by bowling for railway rate regulation. Their agents arc active at all points where railway discriminations, ieal or im agined, are talked of. They are slir- ! ring up this agitation in order to save the protected "infant industries” their i enormous profits. They have pitched on the "common people” and the rail- | roads as their victims to accomplish this end. Internal revenue taxes on coffee, tea, beer and other necessaries is to I bo the “common people’s” share of | tbe governmental burden. Reduced' earnings by governmental control of rates is to be the railrods contribu tion as a sop for rho "common peo ple,” If their plan carries, while the protected trusts make their gains greater and greater. That is the trust program for the next session of congress as arranged in Wall street. "Soak the railroads anil tho common herd” is their slogan. "We have Roosevelt all right.” said one of the chief beneficiaries of the tariff the other day, after a secret meeting in a Wall street office. "Teddy's demand for railway rate regulation, is the eit’s paw that's pulling uur chestnuts out of the fire. As long as' we can keep him going on that tack we needn’t worry about any tariff revi sion. Congress will be stirred up against that rate regulation problem and there won’t be any time to fool A Bad Break. (Lippincott.) During the annual convention of a certain religious body not so very long ago, an incident occurred which was not on the programme, and which completely upset the gravity of the ministers and brethren assambled. It was at the closing session, and the chairman stated that they were about one hundred dollars short of an amount desired to be raised for a given purpose, and hoped that, the sum could be made up before final adjournment. One of the laymen jumped up with the the remark: “I'll start the good work with $25." “l don't know your name, brother.” said the chairman, “hut may God bless you, and may your business be doubled during the year." Much to his astonishment, a hurst of laughter followed from many in the hall, which was explained when a brother up in front stepped to the platform and whispered: “Why, that’t Mr. Blank, a promi nent undertaker of the town.” Just What Everyone Should Do. ^ w Mr. J.
