ROOT IDEA DEVELOPED

Beveridge Gives an Amplification of the Premier's Centralization Views. THINGS THE STATES CANNOT DO Consequently Uncle Sam Has to Do Them Himself. Old Question Up Again Webster vs. Calhoun; National Power vs. State Kights Constitutional Interpretation. New York, March 7. What the president, James I?. Curtis, described fls "the largest number of lloosiera ever together in New York," attended the first dinner of the Indiana Association of New York at the WaldorfAstoria. The speakers included Senator Bevevidge, who responded to the toast "Indiana." He said in part: . No "State" Flag in Indiana. "We American citizens living in Indiana, by formal law on our statute books, have refused to recognize any 'state' flag. By act of our legislature the only Hag we know is the flag of the nation. As the states, acting separately, could not end slavery in 1S61, so the states, acting separately, "cannot end the piracies of . capital in 1007. What the States Could Not Do. "The states could not make internal improvements, so the nation made them: the states could not prevent the scattering of obscene literature so the nation did it; the states could, not suppress lotteries so the nation did it; the states could not end the poisoning of the people by adulterated food so the nation is ending it; the states could not compel the sanitation of packing houses, the inspection of meats so the nation Is compelling it; the states could not preserve the country's forests so the nation is preserving them; the states could not Irrigate the arid west so the nation is working that glorious and beautiful miracle; the states cannot end the murderous Infamy of child labor so the nation Is going to end it; and this for the saving of the nation. CONSTITUTION'S TURPOSE Interpretation Beveridge Favors Is for Centralization. The states cannot control the buccaneers of business so the nation is going to control them; and this for the benefit of the enormous majority of all business men who are not buccaneers. The constitution Is our 'ordinance of national life, and not the articles of our national death. It was meant to free the hands of the American people, and not to shackle them. Marshall so interpreted it in the courts; Lincoln so Interpreted it in the council chamber; Grant so interpreted it on the battlefield. And today Roosevelt Is following in their footsteps, and thus obeying the will of the American people. "The other day at a banquet in this city a voice from Massachusetts de nounced 'the dangers of nationality. No such voice can ever speak for Indi ana without misrepresenting Indiana congressman McCail warned us Against the 'dangers of centralization.' I got down my Calhoun and read the same thing from that great secessionist and ablest'states rights' doctrinaire the country ever produced. It is all bo old Mr. McCail is able, but ancient. "Calhoun said all that McCail said; Shays, of Massachusetts, the first rebel against nationality in our history, act ed all that McCail said; Qulncy, of jiassaeimsetts, declared in congress that the Louisiana purchase 'dl solves the Union.' But none of them rttered the real sentiment of Massa ehusctts. The true soul of Massachu eetts has been voiced by her Adamses, her Websters. her Sumners. her Hoars and her Lodges. I prefer them to her Shays, her Quincies and her McCalls "We Americans are a nation of brothers. Mutual Interest and mutua love hold us together. Graves where sleep our soldiers from those who fell at Lexington in New England to those -who fell at San Juan in Cuba or In the jungles of the Philippines are the graves of American soldiers and not 'state soldiers. Those soldiers in battle never thought of 'state, but only of the nation: thv did not die under the banner of any state, but un der the stars and stripes of the repub lie." Domestic Trouble Fnds in ShootinS Newkirk, Ok.. March 7. Carl Mat thews shot and seriously wounded Ma bel Matthews, his divorced wife, and a Mrs. Jones, at whose home she wns visiting. Mrs. Matthews dress caught fire and she was severely burned. Matthews then .shot himself. All three are still alive. No Irish X'nlvrrsity. London.-March -7. The government has decided to drop for the present session of parliament the bill to create a national university for Ireland. The reasons are that the present legislative ... programme is too extended, and that the bill meets the approval of no party. Fair Tinners Go on a Strike. Norfolk, Ya.. March 7. Demanding tin increase of pay. from $4 to $4.r0 per day all the tinners at work on the buildings under course of construction at the Jamestown exposition grounds fcave gone out on -strike.

SCHMITZ CHANGES HIS VIEW

President Convinces Him as to Some Rights That Belong to the Japanese and Others. San Francisco, March. 7. Mayor Schmitz has arrived here on his re turn from Washington. It was said ho would issue a statement on the whole Japanese situation within a few days. In response to a ouestion as to whether he -would be a candidate to succeed himself he declared that he would "stand by his guns" and that he would "not be driven out by the news papers." Ncninltz, in an Interview nt Los Angeles, en route, is quoted as aylng: "Although T went to Washington to confer with the president about admit ting the Japanese into the public schools I found my views were not altogether right, ancfwhen the matter was presented to me in a light that I had not before considered I could see that there was some reason for the at titude the head of the nation took. ' I have come to the decision hat the Japanese have some right to get an education." OMAHA IS HIT AGAIN Burlington Will Wait Awhile Before Building a Mammoth Freight Depot in That City. Omaha, March 7. Following the action of General Manager Mohler, of the Union Pacific, in calling off all work toward the construction of a welve-slory general headquarters building in Omaha, because of court decisions and "regulator" laws, the Burlington, through General Manager Holdrege, has announced that no work would be done toward the erection of its mammoth freight depot, for which plans had been completed, until condi tions had at least reached a "more settled state." In the legislature now Is a bill pro viding terminal taxation for Omaha which would Impose heavy city taxes on the railroads with their new terminal facilities, and they propose to wait to see the outcome of tie legislation. SECOND ATTEMPT ON HIM Russian General Who Has Dodaed , Two Bombs, but Is Wounded in the Feet. Sebastopol, March 7. As General Neplueff, commandant of the fortress here, who has just been transferred for duty at a less hazardous post, was driving through the city to attend a farewell banquet at the palace, given in his honor by Admiral Skrydloff, a bomb was thrown under his carriage where it exploded. The carriage was shattered. The general sustained injuries about the feet. His coachman was wounded, a woman who happened to be pass ing at the time sustained serious in juries, and the horses that were draw ing the vehicle were crippled. The man who threw the bomb got away. This is the second serious attempt made upon the life of General Neplueff within a year. Fined Twenty-Seven Nuns. Nantes, France, March 7. A police court judge inflicted fines of $3.20 upon each of twenty-seven Ursuline nuns, and a fine of ?5 upon the mother su perior, for persistently refusing to quit their convent in compliance with the law dispersing religious communities.

A TIMELY WARNING. What Man Doesn't Want For Cbriitmai Present!. Don't give him cigars. If you know his favorite brand and squander your last cent on it, he will never be convinced that you didn't Juggle with the labels. Don't give him neckwear. Masculine and feminine notions in such matters will disagree till beyond the day of judgment. Don't give him a penknife. No man believes that any woman is capable of letting the quality of steel outweigh a decorative handle. Besides, knives cut friendship and are bad luck. Unless you know his literary taste don't give him books. If you are congenial in such matters, nothing could be better. Don't, unless you are very near of kin or friendship, give him toilet articles, such as hairbrushes or shaving brushes. Such personal gifts are not always in the best taste. Don't embroider him whisk holders or bureau covers in delicate materials or colors. The average man thinks embroidery an invention of the evil one, specially designed to spoil women's eyes and tempers. If you have brothers, you have probably heard this before; but, then, if all women had brothers they would have a great deal of Information on a variety of subjects. Unless you have something unique to offer don't give a man a calendar. The only one be ever consults Is that issued as an advertisement by his life insurance company. If you really want to please a man at Christmas, study his tastes a little. If he lives in rooms and has a leaning

toward hospitality, give him some accessory to his chafing dish a silver alcohol can or a match safe to keep on the tray or a collection of choice recipes done in pen and ink and bound In water color paper, with an attractive sketch on the cover and a ribbon loop for hanging in a convenient spot. If he is collecting cushions, make him one', but see that it is soft enough for comfort and substantial enough In color for everyday use. If he is literary, give him a book cover or a book rack for tiny and often used volumes or something pretty in the way of billhooks or blotters. He never gets too many of those. For Marceled Wave. The marcel wave so universally worn has tended to a revival of the wearing of nightcaps, as they help materially In keeping the wave in. Handkerchief linen, open embroidery and blue satin ribbon are used in fashioning this at tractive model. Meaning In Oriental Ross. Not only the design but the colors of the rugs woven in the orient are full of significance. They represent nation al or individual traditions and stand for virtues, vices and social Importance. Red was regarded by the Egyptians as symbolic of fidelity. Rose tints signify the highest wisdom, and black and indigo, sorrow, with the Persians. Preference for duller tones of color among the Persians gives to all their embroideries and other products of the loom a certain richness and dignity. Tyrian purple Is almost universally regarded as royal. Green has been chosen by the Turk as his gala color, but he would not approve of its use in rugs, where it would be trodden by the feet. Honeycombed Fnddlnjc. Three-quarters of an ounce of gelatin, three ounces of sugar, one pint of milk, one teaspoonful of vanilla extract, three eggs and a little cold water. Dissolve the gelatin in a little water over a slow fire, then add the sugar and milk. Now add the beaten yolks of eggs and vanilla extract, stir till thick, but be careful not to let It boil. , Whip the whites of the eggs to a stiff froth and stir gently Into the mixture. Pour at once Into a mold rinsed with old water. When firm turn out and serve. A Bad Habit. "He drinks too much coffee." "What effect does It have on him? "It makes him so yellow that his wie is HStmnieu 10 uw seen iiu uiui "But why?' "Yellow Is the one color that doesn't harmonize with her complexion." Ex change. Collars For Stout Women. There is no longer the cry from stout women that no collars are built to suit their necks, for an aceommodatirrg dealer this year has decreed, that every stvle and pattern of stock or collar must bo made In the "extra" sizes as well as in the ordinary.

Move That Case Against Owner of Iroquois Theater Be Dismissed. The Term "Large Number" Is Too In definite and That Power to Regulate Buildings Is Limited. Danville, 111.. March 7. The trial Will J. Davis on the charge of manslaughter growing out of the Iroquois theatre Are has come to a halt. The -dry has been retired and all witnesses sent back to Chicago. The defense played a trump card yes terday by moving to dismiss the case on the technical grounds that the Chicago building ordinances at the time of the Iroquois fire were faulty. Levy Mayer, chief counsel for Will J. Davis, announced that he would require two days to argue his move for the dismissal of the case. Tito Technical Points. The two main points of the technical objections raised by the defense are: "The ordinances are void because of the uncertainty in requiring that certain appliances shall be present In all halls or other places for the purpose of accommodating large number of people, and that the term 'large numbers' of people is so Indefinite as to render the ordinance void. "That the statutes of the state of Illi nois, under which the city of Chica go derives power to establish fire limits. merely give the city power to prohibit the erection of wooden buildings within such limits. There Is no power lodged in the way of regulating build ings within the fire limits." May Block W hole Trial. Upon Judge Kimbrough's rulings as to the question whether the word "large" made the managers of the Iro quois thatre immune from penalty in violating the building ordinances, and whether the city of Chicago had power to legislate against the Iroquois thea tre beyond the provision that It must not be built of wood, rests at present the fate of Mr. Davis and the whole question of punishment for negligence that resulted in 596 deaths en Dec. 30, 1903. Mr. Mayer's action is tantamount to a preliminary motion io quasn tne in dictment, but it carries a further mean(Continued from Page 1) The Daily Deal sirs examination and proved

ing, for nothing was done until the jury had been secured and the first witness, Mrs. Maude Jackson, sworn. This fact, it is said, makes it impossible ever to indict Mr. Davis again on the same charge. If Judge Kimbrough finds the arguments good It is expected he will instruct the jury to find Mr. Davis not guilty, a proceeding paralleled by the beef trust case in Chicago. Will Be a Test Tor Cuba. Washington, March 7. Municipal and provincial elections probably will be held in Cuba within a few months for the purpose of testing the new election law and discovering the exact temper of the republic before trying a national election.
