WASHIN GTON LETTfcR

EX-GOVERNOR TAYLOR AGAIN. Ex-Governor Taylor of Kentucky is brought into prominence again by his being invited to deliver the Memorial day address at Kokomo. Up

on learning that there were objections to his being the orator of the day, he declined the invitation with thanks. The case of Mr. Taylor shows how far partisan hatred can be carried in this the beginning of the twentieth century. Why dont he return tc Kentucky and stand trial is often askli century. Why don't he return tc tucky to be hung by a mob would be a more proper question. Ex-Governor Taylor is not a fugitive from justice but an exile from his native state because he dared to claim the office to which he was elected by a majority of the people. Two governors of Indiana, after considering his ease, refused to honor a requisition for his return. They would not have done this if they had believed that he could have had a fair and impartial trial. The treatment of Caleb Powers and Jim Howard would warrant, this action on the pait of the Indiana governors. In declining to deliver the address at Kokomo, Mr. Taylor did what any gentleman would have done. Since his coming to Indiana, he has never sought any notoriety but has lived the life of a refined and law-abiding citizen. What more is required.

A very fair example of fool theorizing is that in a sentence recently uttered in the United States Senate by Senator McLaurin of Mississippi, when he said that "no man is worthy to be president of the United States who desires to be president of the United States." This of course would be accepted by many persons as expressing a great deal of wisdom. On the contrary it is silly besides being untrue. If it were true, it would di? qualify every man that has sat in thcpresidential chair with the possible exception of George Washington, and anyhow, however any of the presidents may have felt about it, a man who is to a degree qualified even to be thought of in connection with that office and yet would not desire it would be disqualified by the very lack of spirit necessary to the discharge of the duties of the office. Such a statement might be received with applause in the grammar department of the public schools, but most of the youngsters in the high school have gumption enough to know that the theory lacks the saving grace of common sense. Or it might be accepted in a convention of he-women or she-men, but in actual life it won't bear scrutinv for a moment.

The state lias rested its case in the Gillespie trial at Rising Sun. The evidence against the defendant is entirely circumstantial but thecircumstances seem to he very much against James Gillespie, and his conduct during the week has materially changed public sentiment. Uncle Joe Cannon has a bigger task on his hands these days than he had when he was presiding over the National; House of Representatives. Illinois state conventions might follow, with profit, the example of the late Indiana convention.

Perkins was looking blandly over the house and made no sign; "What Is the trouble?" gasped the speaker. "Why did you ring for me?" "I wasn't ringing for 'you." exclaimed the New Yorker. In sunrise. "I was trying to call a page." Harvard Doya at White House. . There was a jolly time at the White

House a few days ago, when the Harvard baseball team called to pay their respects as they were passing through the city. Captain Clarkson headed the party and presented each man to the president. There were twenty-six t In all. and the president shook hands with each man and had a merry word for every one.

Many senators, representatives and others were waiting in the cabinet room to see the president, but he remarked that he would "see the boys

first." While they were in the presi

dent's room Captain Loefiler came in

with a card of a prominent senator.

Yes; I know." said the president.

"the anteroom is full of senators and representatives, but," laughing, "they must be taught their place when a

Harvard delegation is about."

Then the president made a little

speech to the boys, exhorting them to

put on a few more pounds of force when at the bat and carry the old col

lege to the front and keep her there.

"I want you to win every game from

now to the end of the season, and I ex

pect you to do it," were the president's

last words to the boys. Not Baptized, bat Vaccinated.

Father Mackin of St. Paul's Catholic

amusing incident that came to his no

chanced to meet three lads, two oi whom were altar boys at St. Paul's and who were dragging the third toward the priest. "Father," said one of the boys, "this kid wauts to be an altar boy like us." "Indeed," said the father, running his hand over the lad's curls. "My son, have you been baptized?" The child looked at him for a moment, puzzled. Then he exclaimed: "No, sir, not baptized; but I've been vaccinated." '.

Amending the Constitution. When the Panama civil bill was under discussion recently, Senators Bailey and Bacon discovered a provision which, in their judgment, violated

some provision of the constitution. Both statesmen discussed the provision at considerable length, and during the progress of the debate a leading senator, who was a business man rather than a lawyer before he became a statesman, wandered out into the lobby to talk with a newspaper man.

"Do you know," he said, "I am going 1

to attempt to amend the constitution next session?" Instantly the scribe became alert. If a Republican leader of the senate proposed to amend the constitution, there must be a big story in it. "Yes," continued the leader, "1 have determined to try to add to the

constitution a clause which shall pro-, vide that any man who knows anything about the constitution of the United States shall be thereby rendered ineligible for membership in the senate." Penrose Is Chairman. When Senator Penrose was chairman of the committee on immigration he was perfectly content to allow other members of that committee to take hold and manage most of the legislation coming from it, but not so regard

ing postoflice matters. He has thoroughly informed himself on every phase of the postoflice subject, and he understands the business which comes

before the committee, whether in the

matter of appropriations or other legis

lation. And the senators seem satisfied

with his course, as he kept the appropriation bill before the senate witbout

allowing any delay.

Work Both Ways. Representative Adamsou of Georgia

tells a story of an old colored preacher In his county who illustrated the fact

that a rule works both ways. He was

preaching from the text, "Bring up a

child In the way he should go and be Is hard to move," and the old man added, "Bredren and sisteren, I tell yo' ef yo' fotch up a chile de wrong way

he am mighty hard to change." One of Lincoln's Appointees.
