ON THEIR LAST LEGS. As ve stated several days ago, the corruptionists, through their controlled newspapers, are making a strenuous endeavor to prevent the people from having President Roosevelt succeed himself as president, by laying great stress on his repeated declarations that he will not be a candidate for another term. To use this argument shows that they are on their last legs as far as preventing his nomination is concerned. President Roosevelt is not now and never will be a candidate for the presidency again, but he
cannot prevent the people, from nomi-
TiRtlnB- him azain and: electing, him
again. The will of the people in the
United States is supreme, more so to
day than any time in. the past, thanks to the energetic efforts of President Roosevelt to drive the corporations
and special interests from politics.
To nominate and re-elect President
Roosevelt again, is by no .means to be considered as conferring a reward on
him for his past services. The office
of president as administered so strenu
ously and faithfully by President T'fccve!t is no easy position and re-
' i rardest kind of work. It is
that is nothing but fight, .ht from early morning until
late evening, for graft and grafters never sleep, and require a wide awake man to hold them in check. Presi
dent Roosevelt, by his labors in our .behalf, is entitled. to the right to retire at tfce end of his present term and take a well earned rest. But, unfortunately for the president, as faras rest is concerned, he is the only man in public life today whom we can- trust to carry on the ereat reforms undertaken in
the past four years. He has been tried by the hardest kind of trials and never found wanting, and that i3 the kind of man. we must have for president, if we are not to return to the days of bondage, under the heel of predatory wealth. Conditions from
the standpoint of the people are not
yet ripe enough to allow President
Roosevelt to retire. The forces of un
fair privileges are still too strong in
both our great political parties to have
the one man who can, handle them
leave the field. We will nominate
and elect President Roosevelt in 190S because we have need of him for four more years, and as a faithful public servant he cannot refuse to answer the
call of his fellow countrymen

Indiana time card tables have, been received at the local Pennsylvania station after some delay. The only change noted is that the train which formerly left for the north at 11:10, now leaves at 9:20 p. m. The table also contains several pages of brief Information in regard to the small towns near which summer-resorts are located. MINOR NOTES. Lyon Liston, the genial and hustling traveling freight agent for the Union and Southern Pacifies was in Richmond yesterday calling on local freight men.

ABRAHAM HUMMEL.
.New Yorir, June 19 Abraham Hum- : j, convicted of subordination of perjury in the Dodge-Morse divorce scandal, and serving a sentence of one year in the Blackwell's Island Penitentiary, is to go free. His pardon will be the price of the aid he gave the district attorney's office in the trial of Harry Thaw.
To clear the way for his pardon his appeal from his conviction was withdrawn last week and his own counsel, Delancey Nicolla, announced that there would be no one to oppose his application for a pardon. All the remaining indictments against the discredited lawyer were dismissed. This was done by District Attorney Jerome in return for Hummel's service.

Two Dollar Fee That Has Heretofore Been Collected Is a Troublesome Point. At the recent meeting of the Central
Passenger association a committee was
appointed to confer 'with the inter
state commerce commission to ascer
tain whether it is legal to grant reduced rates to the National Educational
association meeting to be held in Los Angeles. The association wants the railroads to collect the two dollar
membership fees on all tickets sold to Los Angeles during the time of the
convention. In this way many $2 fees are collected from people who never intended to attend the convention and through this, most roads have re
fused to grant the $2 rate this year, only a few agreeing to do so.

EXCURSION TO CINCY.
The Pennsylvania will run another nonular excursion to Cincinnati, Sun
day, June 23, which promises to be liberally patronized if the present very
pleasant weather conditions prevail. The. rate will be $1.25, the train leaving the Richmond station at 7.00 a. m,
and returning will leave Cincinnati at
7.05 p. m. The Cincinnati Reds will play Pittsburg at the National league park. 4 TIME CARDS RECEIVED.
HERE AFTER BUSINESS. Jesse V. Clayman, traveling passenger agent for the Burlington railroad,
was in Richmond Tuesday,
business to the National
association and
conventions to be held in Los Angeles andi Seattle, respectively. The splendid service of the Burlington probably will attract a large per cent, of Rich
mond people attending either of the conventions or taking advantage of the convention rates.
CARS MORE PLENTIFUL. It has been1 given out at the local Pennsylvania offices that the supply of freight cars at the present time is greater than it has been in the past ten months. There is no surplus, but the local freight office can: secure all the cars that are called for. The freight business being done now on the Richmond and Indianapolis divisions through Richmond is record breaking. There is an exceptionally heavy cold storage and live stock business at the present time. TRAINS RUN ON TIME. The Pennsylvania train schedules are being better observed than in the past several months. All trains are
running on schedule time, much to
the relief of dispatchers and travelers.

Original. "I don' know," said Mildred thoughtfully. "It seems to me that before people marry is the time to consider if they think alike." ' "On what?" . "Well, I'm interested In woman taking a better stand than she has taken. I want my vote with you men." "I'm perfectly willing that you should have it." "But supposing we differ politically." "What are your political opinions?" "I incline to socialism, municipal ownership and all that. You don't You're on the other side." "But I'm ready to be converted. I don't know that I understand the prin
ciples of socialism. Suppose you explain them to me." "Why, it's very simple. We all need those things that are purchased by money bread, meat, fish, coffee. Some are farmers, some fishermen" "I'm a fisherman. I'm trying to hook you." - !
"Don't be silly. That's the trouble s
with women undertaking to talk seriously with you men. We barely get started when you snub us with a bad pun or something." "Well, go on."
"We also want clothes, houses and a
thousand things that are not food." "Such as kisses."
She looked very much hurt. "How
provoking to be treated like a ninny!
ivisses are one or tne tnings we
want." "But they're not one of the essentials." "I think they are." "How would it do," he added, meas oring his words thoughtfully, "to ap ply that principle to matrimony?" "What do you mean?"
"Why, pool all the men and all the women. When a man wants a wife
she w furnished from the pool, and vice versa." "How silly!" "I'm reasoning from analogy." "There's nothing in your absurdity analogous to socialism. In socialism one needing bread gets bread. In the other case one needs a companion, and all are not equally companionable." "That's just it. If they don't suit they go back into the pool." "I supposed you wished to talk seriousry she said, turning aay, with a trifle of hauteur. "Suppose we talk of something else." "I'll let you do the talking. Proceed with your explanation." "It may be illustrated by matrimony. The husband works for the money to buy the requirements, while the wife takes care of the children." "I thought you said she attended to
her political obligations." "She does that too."
"And the man attends to his political
obligations." "Of course."
"That's not economic. You said that one person planted, another wove, an
other built. Where's the economy of
both husband and wife attending to
the political duties of the family?"
She looked at him,.troubled, reproach
ful. "That's very unkind of you," 6he
said. "In what respect?" "Why, in You've turned my Illustration against me." "Forgive me. I won't do it again." "I don't think. I want to explain any more." "I fancy I understand your position.
I somewhat distorted the socialistic family relation. The true relation is
this: Two people of. opposite sex de sire companionship. They marry. Now. what do they need? Food, clothes, habitation. More than this. They need endearment. That's where kisses come in." He paused and stole an arm about her waist, looking wistfully Into bet eyes. "I said ksses were not one of the socialistic essentials," she said, "and they're not at least not of matrimony, for they may be taken before matrimony." "1 said they were essentials in a general socialistic scheme, and they are. In a matrimonial pool such as we spoke of kissing would be promiscuous." "And your argument is?" "The reductio ad absurdum." She didn't like to admit that she didn't know what that meant, so she said nothing. "Ergo," he continued, "we two desir-

"s t.v state, tne iCisses fully legitimatized, can only obtain it by Sweetheart, say 'Yes.' Won't
you? You've kept me in an agony of suspense for two whole days." "Must I to be socialistically consistent leave the political duties to you?" "They should be attended to by one of us. You might leave them to me and take a corresponding duty in place of them." y "What, for Instance?" "Choose for yourself." . "Do amusements come into the scheme as well as kisses?" "Certainly." "Well, then, if you don't mind I think FHgo to the opera." The bargain was sealed with a volley of one of the socialistic requirements. Presently she released herself. She had something important to say. "Dearie, your argument, the what do you call it?" "Reductio ad absurdum. That's re ducing your opponent's argument to an absurdity." "Well, it's converted me. Socialism must be horrid. Just think of a system that leads to promiscuous kissing!" "I thought you wouldn't like it when you understood It. You see it all clearly now, don't you, love?" t'Of course I do." NATHAN CARTRIGHT.

was no room and during his confine
ment in jail he almost recovered his mental faculties.
