trouble is that on any such occasion,
wben such liberties are permitted,
there are always fools who overdo
the fun and make- it a terror to a
large proportion of the people. If
only very young people did this, it
would not be so bad, but they are
outdone by a lot of coarse hoodlums
nearly or fully grown, and even by
middle-aged men, creatures with no
sense of propriety or decency, who
congregate on any such occasion, and
whose only Idea of enjoyment is to
annoy, harass and torture others.
So the only way, as the Astorlan
suggests, is to repress one after an
other of these mischief nuisances as
fast as they are Invented and put
Into operation.

SENATORS IN . CONVENTION.
T
HE ST. PAUL DISPATCH prints
a strong editorial demanding
that United States senators be
kept out ' of and keep their
hands off the next national conven-
, tlons,' particularly the Republican
convention. It says that the publio
wlil look with distrust upon a
' Republican convention dominated
politically and" essentially "by mem
bers of the federal senate and
through them the army of govern
meat officials who owe their bread
and butter directly to senatorial in
fluence. The time has come when it
will be regarded as a sinister and
. menacing situation if the next na
t tlonal convention shall be controlled
by: the clique which" Is all-powerful
in ' the United States senate."' ' The
. Dispatch continues:-;
It would be worse than idle to deny
that the country is a wept from and to
. and by tha conviction that tha United
' Btatee aenate, or the compact and
bandleable clique which controls It. 1b
In diametric antagonism to tha Interests
or the massee; that It represents, not
' , tha people, but tha special Interests, and
that It stands like adamant between tha
. people and those measures now unl
varaaQy considered necessary a to their
material welfare. Party lines have been
practically obliterated and the new sen-
t ator, fresh from the people and with tha
strong impulse to voice their necessities
V and desires, is crushed between the
upper millstone of senatorial courtesy
ana me newer millstone of the clique
xnai can De moved only by the most de

HE tragedy of news dissemina
tion is on. The clvillxation of
,000 years has given ns the
modern newspaper. In it we
are wont In the evening to read what
the world haa been doing through
tne day; Port Arthur surrenders,
Vesuvius goes Jnto violent eruption,
William and Ed wd kiss, the Thaw
Jury disagrees, San Francisco is de
stroyed by quake and fire, the mika
do launches a new battleship, and
within a few hours the details are
read in Portland. Distance Is con.i
quered and time subdued. There is
no ocean, no land to obstruct or hold
back the news. Every barrier7 or
obstacle that stood In the way has
been triumphantly passed. The world
can be encircled in a minute of time
and the most sweeping changes that
have taken place in the world's busi
ness methods are the consequence
of this quick communication. In
nothing is it so much manifest as
in the dally paper. Every' Invention
and discovery has been made to con
tribute to its evolution. It is the
agent more than anything else that
has added to the stability of free
government and set thrones to quak

iarizes the family with policies and
problems and keeps civilization
steadily pressing on.
But, for the moment, the whole
of this vast activity Is checked. The
wires are silent. The hand that all
day and all night long wields the
telegraph key and gives the world
Its news is idle. The man who is a
prime factor in this vast world ma
chine is not at his post. He claims
that he is not paid enough for his
toil, and for the hour the world is
set back half a century in its civili
zation. ' ' : '

JAMESTOWN AND SEATTLE.
ROM ALL reports the James
town exposition is not the suc
cess that was expected. All
visitors to both expositions
agree that it does not come any
where near up to the standard of the
Lewis and Clark exposition In nny
respect. Yet it may retrieve Itself
somewhat during the fall months,
xne fact undoubtedly Is that the
people of the country as a whole are
becoming rather indifferent to such
expositions, do not take nearly so
much interest in them as they did a
few years ago. They are becoming
comparatively stale. The Lewis and
Clark exposition waa a success not
so much because - of " its exposition
attractions as because it was new In
this part ot the country, and because
aitord.ed eastern people a good
opportunity to visit a new and
strange region to them. Its location
