K0W. gravitate to their places around the sun, of his brilliancy and power. The latter remark may be susceptible of qualification, for the reason that the unbone Sen ator seems not willing to define bis position regarding certain prominent candi dates tor high office, elective and appointive, and, pending the Senator's break ing of the silence, none of the satellites may know exactly Where they will be after the Senator's solar system has been nicely adjusted. v It IS highly amusing to observe the anxiety on the faces of those Who fain would rids into luoratlve office upon, the Senator's sayso, and memory Is ' tlrred of times when many who now hang upon his veriest word scorned him . as a political castaway. But, that which amuses one man hot always amuses the other fellow. It , depends upon the point of view, For Instance, suppose there be. a man of promi nence who erstwhile has excoriated the now omnipotent Senator, castigating him in language that would do honor to the verbal punisher of his Satanic Ma jesty! and flaying Jilm alive with the vitriolic objurgation that IS the product - only of those1 who perfectly command the English tongue. To such there be lit tle of amusement In the now greatfteas of the man who once was presumably Mil est ' ; It is humiliating In the extreme for such a man to bow to the superior wilt Of on Who onoe Iiwas prone to 'regard the case as almost hopeless, but who, with Indomitable Will, Went lo work to woo the Goddess-,, of Political Fortune and who weoed and won her. - But these 'are (he exegencles of politics.

Mr. Hill has come to be regarded as the mouthpiece of the railroads of the North west, and what he has to say on matters anecung tne roaas may rainy De tnKen i as the views of those who are interested In railroad ownership and management In this part of the country. When he says, therefore, as he is reported to have , said In Tacoma, that he cares nothing about th railroad commission agitation, and that he and his associates are not opposing the creation of a commission, it is to be supposed that this question will be settled without any Interference on the part of the railroads. Mr. Hlii's statement will be hailed with delight by alt those who have feared that the railroads Would have the old lobby on hand at Olympla to fight against any and all commission legislation. As the roads, according to Mr. Hill, are not concerning themselves about the matter and do not care what happens, there wilt, of .course, be no occasion for' the serv ices of railroad attorneys, agents and boosters at the state capital end a rail road commission bill should go through on its merits. This announcement of Mr. Hill is even better news than that announcing the proposed reduction of grain rates. Spokesman-Review. REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.

He goes at the matter' hammer and tongs, threatens to call extra- ses sions, thus placing Senators upon record in the extra glare of an extraordinary convening, utilizes every available means at his command, and, In short, makes a fight. Mr. McKlnley would have adopted different, tactics. There would have been little talk of hostility to the President. There would have been a dearth of the Rooseyeltlart strenuousity, that promises to create ' brilliant political pyrotech nics through the nation 'and snake every state election like a. Fourth of July cel ebration. Mr. McKlnley would have applied the salve of faver dealt out with a master hand. . He would" have placated where Mr. Roosevelt stirs up resent ment. He would have poured oil upon the troubled waters, whereas'Mr. Roose velt Is prone to let loose vast quantities of oil, not to still the -waters, but to be Ignited and produce great conflagrations. Therein lie the points of difference. One was a born diplomat, the other is a fighter. One won by conciliation, the other tries to win Ujf virtue of force. One was the smooth, polished McKlnley, whereas the other Is the bristling, strenuous, combative, Roosevelt, wbo likes a fight better than anything else In the world, and who, were he to care tor anything else, could not have it. Fight ing seems to be the necessity of his nature. It remains to be seen whether or not he can win out against the instructed politicians who appear to be arrayed against him. r- . , BORROWED A GOOD CUSTOM. from all loyal Americans. It is. Indeed, a pretty custom, and one is of unsentimental natura who does not thrill at the thought that it Is a common bond that ties all our 80,000,000 people, and that the tie Is visible when the strains of the national, airs are' heard. English people never remain seated when they hear the music of "God Save the King." It Is by common consent that the lrrefraglble custom has gained prevalency, and visitors to the English Isles or to colonies of the Empire ob serve with admiration that the response to the occasion is ever spontaneous. Manager Bowers, of the Hotel Portland, is deserving of thanks from Port landers f6r giving them the musical treats that may be had by any one who will go there, or upon the convenient seats opposite, 'Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturdays evenings. The excellent orchestra of Signer De'"C$prio 'renders programs upon these evenings that are Worth especial praise 'from the standpoint of the musical critic. . tMIORJAL PITH. One neeJ not be a psychologist, a peda- goglst or the parent of 17 children to agree with Dr. Stanley Hall concerning tne otflcary of spanking as a deterrent when applied to wayward children under 10 years of age. To resort ito this remedy for compelling obedience In children, who have not yet learned to grasp the rea son for parental mandates requires Judg ment and flu a discrimination qualities that or frequently lacking in parents but no one can question its potency as a disciplinary measure.

His two defeats and the failure of all his predictions have not shaken his hold on their admiration and affec tion.

Sioux City Journal. Another and a very Important factor of the anomalous situation Is that these are great times for the producers of food.

Of Interest in the current number of the American Journal of So ciology Is Professor Tolraan's Statement as to the extent of the study of sociology in institutions of learning in this coun try. He shows that 169 different men's colleges give some attention to the study and ISO of these give one course or more ' to it; 16 women's colleges and universi ties give fairly adequate traeatment of It, but in no university In this country is the whole flald of sociology covered, the nearest approach to it being at the University of Chicago, at Tale and at Columbia. A classification of the vari ous sociologies courses offered by col leges and universities is given. Under the caption, "The Trust Problem Re- studied," Victor Yarros discusses the probable result of the renewed agitation of the subject, For some years trusts have been attacked severely by laws ct abolition and restraint' and regulation. The Federal Supreme Court has declared even reeonable restraint of commerce to be contrary to public policy. Combina tions and pools have been dissolved by Federal and state authorities. But the trust' movement survive; ".-Socialism would abolish trusts and abolish a good many things along with them, which It is not desirable to abolish. The Nation Is not prepared' to adopt ' collectivization as a remedy. r Mr. Yarros thinks the question of supply of capital to tho business community by the banks has been unduly neglected, so tar as it bears on the possibilities of competition, and he takes the- ground that branch banking and asset currency would prove to be anti-turst agents of considerable - influ ence, as they would tend, .by wider dif fusion of ionable funds and lower in terest and discount rates, to encourage limited enterprises.
