WITH THEJEDIT0KS. TAHIFK REVISION. Notwithstanding1 the verdict of the elections, the Loulsvlllo Courier-Journal has small faith in republican tariff revision. It says: "The standpatters are not merely opposed to the reform of the tariff, they are hostile to tariff discussion. They do not desire to have the enormities of the present tariff exposed in the debates of congress. They do not wish to hear members of their own part from Massachusetts , contending for free hides and coal, members from the Northwest asking for free lumber, and similar requests from other sections. They shrink from an agitation of the question, simply because they think that they are safer when they Indulge in generalities. They may be forced to listen to such discussions, but if they are it by no means follows that they will do anything to help the country. The revision of tha tariff by Its friends is a "barren ideality," tin "Iridescent dream." If the voters really desire a reform of the tariff schedules, In the Interest of the people, and not of the trusts, they must impose the task upon those who do not believe in monopoly, who wage a real and not a sham battle against criminal combinations.

POLITICS IN MOROCCO.

Lagging Morocco has at last caught up with the times. It has learned one of the American ways. The sultan of that exalted state has appointed one Ttalsull. sometime bandit, to be governor of a town and its provinces. Ilaiflull as a . bandit displayed great genius fof government, and that genius has not been allowed to grow stalo by repentance of incarceration. No, the sultan believes in the conservation of energy, in keeping right on and on when one has once begun the development of such sterling abiltles, and so he plucks Ralauli from his bandit business and transfers him inetanter to the office of state. In this country we are too prone to sidetrack the political aspirant Just at the period when he should be allowed to go ahead. He gets a very good reputation as highwaymen, or buccaneer, all that any one could a3k. His novitate has been served to the utmost satisfaction of all. But then we bid him pause oftentimes and do a little byplay 'in rolitloal hyprocrlsy. He must g through all the paces of the practiced sayer of lies. He must shout lils sincerity from the housetops and immerse himself in whitewash thrice dally. Meantime he is forgetting some of the nice points of brigandige. is growing rusty or dull when he should

Speculative Fever.

The metropolitan papers are crowded these days with tempting offers for speculative Investments. It would seem that all the promoters In the land realizing that the crops are in and that a degree of prosperity is abroad have conspired to get some of the money. Many of the advertisements are inviting and after reading them it seems an easy thing to make a snug profit on a small investment. But prospective buyers should recount the number of get-rich-quick schemes that have failed in the last few years and reflect on the thousands who have lost their savings while seeking immense profit. It wpuld be well for all to remember that safe investment doesn't offer great dividends. A good investment even at 6 per cent only appears once in a great while. Those who may be tempted should also remember that where there exists a good Investment it is not difficult to get capital. In advertising the promoters are asking you to put your money where conservative business men will not put theirs. Occasionally the stock In a speculative company brings the buyer profit but such companies are the exception. Safe and conservative investments don't make a wild appeal for buyers and they don't promise everything under the sun in return. Lafayette Jounral.

DEAD AT 102 YEARS. Pioneer of Southern Minnesota Passes Away at Tracy.

Tracy, Minn., Nov. 14. Mrs. Mary Williams Hoag, who resided with her daughter, Mrs. George Donaldson, of this city, died yesterday at the ripe age of 102 years and seven months. Mrs. Hoag was of illustrious parentage, being a direct descendant of Roger Williams, the founder of Rhode Island and renowned in the history of the American Baptist church. Sho was born In South Kingston, Rhode Island, May 3, 1804. When three years old she removed with her parents to the state of New York where they settled in Onelila county near Rome. At the age of 27 years she was married to Russel Hoag of Utlca, N. Y., with whom she soon afterwards moved to Wyoming county, where Mr. Hoag in association with a Mr. Cole, founded the village of Colesville. Six children were born of this union, Mrs. Harvey Kill, now a resident of St. Paul. Mrs. Lyman Walker of Alden, Minn.; Reuben Hoag of Houston county, Mrs. George McDonald of Tracy, and Mrs. Wallace Hills and Russell Hoag, jr. Al lsurvive except the last two named. Mrs. Hoag came with her family to Olmstead county in 1S57, when Minnesota was a territory, where they passed through the trials and hardships Incidental to frontier life and where Mr. Hoag died in July of the year 18S5. During the last few years her health has been gradually declining and she had been confined to her bed during the last eight weeks. She had read the Bible through from Genesis to Revelations more than twenty-five times. Recently asked to what she attributed her long life, she referred to the last two verses of the third chapter of the book of Proverbs for her reply: "My son, forget not my laws, but let thine heart keep my commandments; for length of days, and long life, and peace shall they add to thee." Besides her own children twenty-two grandchildren and thirtyfive great grandchildren are left to

revere her memory. St. Paul Dispatch.

THE LEGALIZED ROSS. Discussing Secretary Bonaparte's suggestion to elect bosses, the Louisville Courier-Journal thinks the scheme a good one if the boss has come to stay; that it were L"ter to recognize him under his real tllle, thus: If we once recognize the fact, if it is a fact, that the boss system has come to stay, the logical idea Is that set out by Mr. Bonaparte. Let the boss be legalized. Let him say who shall be candidates for office without the intervention of conventions or other nominating agencies, which he controlls so absolutely as to render such agencies entirely unnecessary. There Is, of course, one other way. If the people who do not believe in party bosses can command a majority. It is competent for them to destroy the bosses altogether. But if they are resolved to

BEGIN" DUTIES IN" TEN" DAYS. According to an opinion given by Attorney-General Charles W. Miller,

John C. Blllheimer, who was elected auditor of state last Tuesday, and Fred Sims, who was elected secretary of state, will enter upon their respective terms of office within the next ten

days. Mr. Blllheimer will succeed Warren Bigler, who was appointed by Gover

nor Hanly to fill out the unexpired term of David E. Sherrick. Mr. Sims

will succeed himself, he having been

appointed by the governor to fill the

unexpired term of Daniel E. Storms.

Mr. Sherrick's term would have ended Jan. 26, 1907. and Mr. Storms' term

would have ended Jan. 17, 1907, but the appointments to the vacancies were not made only until their successors

had been elected and had qualified.

SEW YORK LETTER.

New York, Nov. 15. Stocks started the day off precisely in the same manner that they have every previous day this week strong and higher for every active stock on the list. The particularly brilliant features today were the two Hill stocks. Great Northern and Northern Pacific. The continued talk of large disbursements to the holders of these two securities has been the paramount issue in them and has Induced some very heavy and influential buying. It Is presumed that the buying is discounting the future action of the directors of both companies. Great Northern advanced almost ten points for the day, and Northern Pacific scored an advance of nearly five. In the other high-priced rails, St. Paul, Reading, Union Pacific, Baltimore & Ohio, Atchison, Missouri Pacific and Southern Pacific were in brisk demand by traders, who sold short during the last few days. Nearly every one of these issues scored advances ranging from one to two points. On the whole, the market was the broadest that we have had since the inception of the present bull movement. Influential interests are making every endeavor to induce a public following in the stock market, but as yet brokerage houses do not report any great increase In the amount of outside speculation. The money situation seems to be in a healthier condition, call loans ruling as iow as four and one-half per cent, today. The general market closed strong and within fractions of the highest prices so far cn this upward swing.

nI MONEY IN CIRCULATION. Washington, Nov. 14. The United States secret service announces the discovery of a new counterfeit $10 "Buffalo" United States note. This counterfeit is apparently a pho-to-lithographic production printed on two pieces of paper with silk fiber distributed between them. The face of the note is grayish black. The numbering, seal and large X ten are of good color and workmanship. The check letter and platinum, however, do not appear in the lower right hand corner. The back of the note is dark bluish green. By itself this counterfeit is apt to deceive, but when handled with genuine notes the marked difference in the color of the back should lead to Its Immediate detection.

CHICAGO LETTER.

Chicago, Nov. 16. WHEAT Profit-

taking by the longs, who have been buyers of wheat during the past few days, had a weakening tendency on

our market today, and as a result

prices eased off almost a cent a bushel

The news was rather more bullish than

otherwise. Receipts in the northwest were light, scarcely half what they were a year ago; foreign markets a

trifle higher and the cash demand re

ported fair. The market closed with

a loss of three-quarters of a cent for

the day.

CORN. A little more activity was apparent in this cereal today, although prices did not change materially. There was a slight buying wave in evidence

for the May option. Cash sales to the

seaboard were S5.000. Corn in the sample market was quoted a shade higher. Receipts of new corn were not

large. The market closed steady to

firm.

OAlS. Trade narrow and profes

sional. The undertone of the market was inclined to firmness, in sympathy with the strength in corn. A little commission buying, also a few orders from the northwest to buy on a scale

were about the only features.

Standard Oil sold off another thirty points yesterday on the attack by Secretary Moody for the United States government and the bill filed at St. Louis is very drastic. If the government can make out a case and get it to stick it will be "good-by" to Standard Oil, Amalgamated copper and United States steel as they are all In the same boat. It will be sixty days before the case can be tried; if successful It will mean a complete revolution in the method of doing business in this country and may mean the disruption

THE UNITED STATES ARMY. Recent figures show that there is much yet to be done to make the American army what It should be. The death rate in certain other armies is prevails in any other army save the British. Statistics, however, are sometimes deceiving, and it is so, to some extent, in this case. We have too much sickness and too many deaths, but the case is not so bad as it seems. The low deatli rate in certain othe rarmies is largely due to the fact that when men are fatally sick they are promptly discharged and die outside the army. Nevertheless, our medical department is not what it should be. We seem to have learned little from the Japanese, when we should have learned much. Surgeon-General O'Reilly says in his report: "It will be impossible for the medi

cal department to reach a high degree of efficiency without this assistance (the assistance of congress). It should not be postponed until war is imminent, as it requires years of time for the selection and training of medical of

ficers."

He predicts that unless immediate

steps are taken in the direction of

strengthening the medical corps there will be another "lamentable breakdown

in case of war."

It appears further that there is more drunkenness in our army than in any other. Here we hold an unchallenged pre-eminence. It seems further that

many of the diseases from which the soldiers suffer are due to the fact that they are virtually driven outside of the posts for amusement. We think that

congress should look the facts fairly in

the face. We have tried the anti-canteen policy. With no canteen it is al

leged that w have today the drunk-

enest army in the world. Every ef

fort should be made to discourage

drinkine; in the army. We agree that

it would be better if all the soldiers were total abstainers. But as things

now are such an army is impossible

The Question is whether the men who

will drink anyhow shall do it under all

Reading is very strong and is going a great deal higher. P rick has about all of the floating supply. The scrip

Mr. Frick figures that this will put Reading on an eight per cent basis and expects the stock to sell above ISO, In the meantime every floor trader is short up to his neck.
