Evr since the land fraud invoca tions begun in Portland there has Wen an effort on the part of some to eon nect Senator Fulton with these trail nitions and the old gang who have Wen whijiped time and again to a standstill, and who are doing all in their power to get once more in the saddle, have left no stone unturned to accomplish tlii end. Xow come the report from Port land emanating from the grand jury and telegraphed all over the country, a though a great crime had Wn commit ted, that lie wrote a letter for one of the men indicted to the secretary of the interior, stating that he was an honor able man and that the claims held by him under supension be given the at tention of the department at an early date. Now what harm is there in this! M 1M frjepd of the, senator comes to 'm and asks that lie help him git his matters promptly attended to by the department, just the same as thousands of people have done before and will do hereafter. There is not a day passes but that Senator Fulton has requests made from bualne people, qld soldiers, commercial bodies, etc., asking that he take ur matters with the authorities at Washington In which they are in terested, and if he did not give them proper attention his stay in Washing ton would be short, for is he not the servant of the people! The latest effort to besmirch Senator Fulton'a character is probably done to discredit his influence in Washington in the matter of the appointment of a I--.!..

The concessions made bv France to Germany in Morocco, culminating in a conference and DelcassV' resignation, have not availed to prevent the French government from being drawn by Ger man policy in North Africa to the very verge of a military demonstration on the Algerian frontier, a step whose win sequence no one can predict. The one important factor which influ ences both France and Germany m Morocco, as Mr. Ion Perdkaris has jointed out in his article on "The Dis integration of Moroceo,"in the Inter national Quarterly," is the possibility of profits to their citizens in concessions incident to the developement of a back ward country. France hoped to monop olize these concessions, under the agree ment with Kngland. Germany insist ed on being recognized, and demanded an international congress to decide the future of Morocco. Were such a conference, as Mr. Per dicaris has suggested, to assume a cer tain guardianship over Morocco, making the ill-governed land a ward among nations, the world would gain. Nor is there any reason to prevent the United States from aiding such a project with its moral support. But such a course presupposes that, pending the conference, no country shall seek concessions or disturb the exist ing situation. If F'rance expected this of Germany it showed a similar want of knowledge of either German manners of methods. The German Minister in Morocco has steadily pushed on. A German concesion for building a quay in Tangier greatly needed gives a German grip on the management of the trade in the chief Moorish port. A loan of $2,500,000 to the Sultan, Abdul Aziz, "personally" gives German con trol of hi personal revenue and ex penditure. In this way this is handier for diplomatic influence ban the loan of $12, 400,000 made by the French to the state. French influence pales before these steps and the sultan emancipated from the fear of French and English by pressure by his German friends, ha resented the aid many Algerians haw given the pretender, now in rebellion against him by seiting the leading figure among the Algerians in North Morocco. While this revives a Moorish claim of sovereignety over all Moslems by virtue of their religion, it is a gross violation of French ex-territorial right and an open and flagrant inult to the French flag. Nothing possibly remains for France but a demand on the Sultan for idem nity, under ieiialty of occupying by a military force, a town near the Algerian frontier, Oudja. The Moorish government will doubt' less yield, but the step is an extreme one, and it bring France accross the path of Germany, a perilous ttosition, Turkev will use the influence of the power to perpetuate his ownj plun der, oppression and mi-government.

Mas., the other day President Roosevelt received pressing invitation from John Barney Wright, champion trapper of the Hoc ae mountains, to go hunting in that region next fall. Mr. Roosevelt prom ised to go if he could arrange for uch a trip. Wright ha been trapper for many year and ha made a fairly good living at it The police of Philadelphia have stricken from the voting li-ts iU).0S3 fraudulent names names of dead men. of men who had never been natural of when who had never Wn natural ized, of men who had never lived. With this shadowy army ready to lear down on the polls, what gtiod was it for any enemy of the machine to vote at all? Until Mayor Weaver shonk on the -hackles Philadelphia did not govern itself. It was governed by "the dead hand," by "sjiantaneoiw generation." by the hoeuspoeu of political mediums. The vote of an honest man had just one sixty-thousandths part of the vote of no man at all. A queer thing sometimes is "popular government." The Duke of Norfolk i a man of sim pie taste, and yet he is the possessor of the most extravagant costume in Kngland. The uniform which he wear a the Lord Marshall represents an out lay of over $1,500 exclusive of jewel. Seventeen thousand yard of embroid ery are worked into the coat in gold lace until but little of the original cloth is seeen. His grace feels more at home in his old clothes. A petition was recently filed in the probate court in Shelby county, in Mem phis, Teiin.. by Thomas J. Hiinm, pray ing that he le allowed to change his name to that of Thomas J. llanim. The petitioner, who is a native of Denmark, set forth in his petition to the court that his name had caused him consid erable annoyance on more than 1.000 occasions. His feelincs had lieen par ticularly hurt since the souvenir post card, bearing portraits of "The Whole Damm Family," had been phuvd on the market. The court granted the prayer of the petitioner and his name was changed to Ha mm. Census bureau bulletin prepared by Professor W. F. Wilcox of Cornell de clares that the birth rate in the United States has lieen steadily declining since 1800. Everybody knows that, but why do they not proHse a remedy for the samef n . . All the states in the Union pre-criW the death penalty for murder except Maine, Rhode Island, Michigan and Wisconsin. It was alwlished in Iowa in 1872. but restored in 1878. It was also abolished in Colorado, but restored in 1001. M. Witte says many of the Russian people are unaware of the fact that their nation is at war. They are pro bably too busy trying to raise their taxes to have any time to find out what is going on beyond the township lines. The freight alone on brick which will Ih shipped to Panama in Central America with which your Uncle Samuel intends to pave the streets and thus put the city in a sanitary condition, amounts to $4.,000. Luther Burbank, the plant world wizard, now expect to produce cobles corn. If -Mr. iiuroanK iieiieves lie can displace the roasting ear from the es teem of this country he is mistaken. The Chinese government has sent a circular to all mandarins and governors and they say they never heard of such a thing as an American boycott. A Boston spinster has written a novel which she calls "Paradise." It contains many more male than female characters. PERSONAL POINTS. King Edward is an omnivorous news paper reader and on many occasions has shown himself to be a good friend of the press. He keeps a number of albums for clippings. When on the continent he has a bundle of the leading English dailies every morning, and aided by bis secretary, jieruses such articles a he deems of interest. Helen Longstreet, daughter of the famous general, has written in "Lee and Longstreet at High Tide" the story of the battle of Gettysburg!) in answer to criticisms that have been leveled at her distinguished father. She has gone to the records for her story and has filled out sundry graps by reference to the memoirs left by her father. Once upon a time, as far back as the '50s, Susan B. Anthony wore bloomers, but she declared it "mental crucifixion," and gave it up. She is very fond of The late Secretary Hay left to his daughter. Mr. Whitney, a number of his unpublished manuscript. She in herited no inconsiderable share of her father's literary ta-te, and shortly will begin to prepare for publication some some of the manuscripts. During her aWn.-e abroad she ha caused a ttjiecit' of kiosk of quaint design to lx built on the shore of Shadyside Lake at Man basset, and it is there that she intend to do most of her literary work. .l.Pierpont Morgan is said to W at tended everywhere he goes, except on his yacht Corsair or on special trains, by two discreet private detective. Mr. Morgan i not aware of the presence of tiiesc two men and new ollicer are con stantly employed in order that he may not learn their identity. Mr. Morgan has several large jHilicies on his life. In addition so many financial interests in this country and abroad are deeply interested in the distinguished banker's health and freedom from accident, that a jmhI has Wn formed to protect him in every jsissible way.
