' Including the fact that he is an old man, and the infer ence that he has outlived his usefulness, upon, which they laid great stress ; the opposition being built up behind a much ? younger man, the opposing, candidate,1 Joseph Walker, who t was represented as vigorous and progressive and opposed to ',' all the so-Called reactionary ideas of Senator Lodge j f And' the principal proofs of the reactionary ideas of Sen- ". ator Lodge' were given concerning his advocacy of the pro : tectiVe tariff. .- .. ' The-Springfield Republican of last Saturday was saying, among piany other things: yvSSiL'r.m. y" ' . .r VMr. Lodges position on' the tariff at this time is W y;4fthat of Tig Iron' Kelley jn the 1880s, and, being 40 -years out of date, it utterly lacks recognition of the I " present economic need pf our wage earning population 1; ( for cheaper food, or the need of thtf'state's industries' ' for a wide foreign market.

He stated that if the reforms he proposed were not adopted. within a speci fied brief time he weuld. report the circumstances to Washington.

A big New York surety company is fostering the movement, which is organlied as an antidote to. the increaae in crime. Possibly come good re sults will come from -Instruction of the. sort that, is proposed. It is the "honesty bureau's" plan to work through teachers first I and eventually through the home and the church, to give boys' more Ynoral teaching than they have been receiving. As a matter of fact, the public schools now, if in charge of instructors of the right kind, as they should be, are oper ated in a way to Impress On pu pils what is fight and what is wrong. After ail, isn't it in the home Jhat effective moral instruction must be given If parentB j can be imprereed with the need pi -caching their boys honesty f and if in the family circle a policy. & fair dealing is scrupulously fol lowed, the need of . an 'honestj bureau" to work through ; the schools would be slight. With out examples of honesty at home some schoolboys may be helped by the proposed movement, but it, is a question how effective the venture will prove. WIFELY RUMORS It la persistently reported that the kaiser is about tov take unto himself a second wife. He has ibeen in somewhat straitened cir cumstances from a royal view point and had some trouble in upholding his dignity, but, now that he has sold, his memoirs for more , real money than Berlin has ceen since the war, he could easily afford a wife or two. But? if he does annex a skirt, he will for ever forfeit the esteem of the German honsewires, whichlie managed to hold through - most of his scarlet career. They , re spected him because f of his royal consort, who. in spite of her sta- Jtion. kem'alned the personifica tion of the German home. He will be spurned of them If ho per mits another face to obtrude against her memory.

As a matter of fact, the Laplacean hypothesis was knocked into a "cocked hat" in! 1861 when Babinet, another great IFrench mathematician, published his mathematical criteria demon-? strating that a rotating fluid globe (that was oof sun and solar sys tem), never could throw off planet forming rings because its gravity force at all times and in all posi tions in 'space bas-beon. more than seven times greater 'than Us cen trifugal force. As early as 1878; Herbertr Speacen: 1 his essay on the ''Nebular w Hypothesis'" recog- nized the rigor and logic of Babi net's Criteria and "concludes that the Laplacean hypothesis must be greatly ..modified or entirely aban doned. : ; ' I As to tbe first to formulate the modern planetesimal theory " of cosmogony, it is only necessary to remark that almost 50' years ago Richard Proctor, the American astronomer, enunciated a plane tesimal theory very similar to the one now being worked so success fully by Mesrs .Chamberlln and Moulton. , f The one, transcendent mathe matical astronomer in the world who has done most to discover and reveal the true natural history and evolution of our solar system an the stellar universe is the Amer ican naval astronomer, Dr. T.

While France, England, Qermany, Italy and Japan have hailed him as the peer-of Newton, Laplace and Herschel, and his works are used in all their great universities, at home his name hath an, unfamiliar sound and : we become Interested in his immortal doctrines only when they have been multilated ind branded by Chamberlln, Moul ton & Co.
