JUDAS KISSERS. T7p to a year ago one did not hear a Ttford f.poken. against President Itooseelt. Republicans the country over all joined in giving praise to the one man who wan fearless enough to throw Iown the gage of battle to the vicious corporations in their stronghold in Wall street. He was barked in his policies by the united press of the republican, party. But this apparent harmony in the party only seemed to last as long as there was any thought that the president might be a candidate for the nomination again. When it was realized that he was sincere in his determination, not to accept another nomination the republican party immediately split, into two factions -those who favored a thoroughly alive and militant government in the interests of Che people and those who favored a retain to the old days of trust domination; and untrammelled freedom for all wealthy criminals. Those men who composed the latter undesirable class bad up to that time been the most ardent in their protestations of friendship for and belief in President Roosevelt. Now, however, Judas-llke, they have turned on him. and are rending him and his policies limb from limb. Nothing too false or malicious but they will use It in their corrupt newspapers. They attribute the recent financial troubles to him and accuse him of being the cause of over a million men being out of work throughout the country. They stick determinedly to this falso story in spito of the fact that all tne thinking people of the country .know that the panic was the direct result of the uncurbed freedom accorded to Wall street operators if it was not, in fact, manufactured by them in order to discredit the president. The president is well rid of these fawning sycophants and the country Is better off for the split in the party. We now know who are and who are not for the people and their rights. The president is now unhampered by the treacherous work of false friends and can proceed with his great work all the better, with the co-operation of kis tried and proven friends. If the recent primary Is any indication, this is going to be a great year for the republican party; at least, in t&ls neck of the woods. Out of 6,500 republican, voters in Wayne countv. over 6400 voted at the primary last Utaesday. Thl3 is more votes cast at primary than were enst at the elecrttaa two years ago. The mere fact that certain people of tthl community and vicinity were fored to fleo on account of rising water Byesterdfty, docs not necessarily mean tfcat temperance, agitation is on the wane. Professor Lihdley says that civilizaitltm is made possible by geniuses. ! What does he think of the kind of civilization imposed on the country by those geniuses Inhabiting "Wall street? TROUBLE WITH WOMEN EXPECTED TODAY -Suffragists Say They Will Parade Streets, New York, Feb. 33 The New York police stand a fair chance of having their first experience with the militant suffragists tomorrow when tho omans suffrage societies of tho city rlan to hold a parade in Fifth avenue, the lino of march bciug from Union Fquare to Central Park. Although the Jaw provides that parades shall not be hehJ without permits from the police. nd shall rot be held at all on Sun!ay, the suffragists are planning to ! go on with t'neir ucnior.stration in spite of tho law or tin- police. The j women will be allowed to march qr.i- : elly up the street, but it is said that j the police department will prevent the j t:se of banners and bands. j Tho 4nartao Of Uf. Intacta Red children are constantly needing a "laxative. It Is Important to know what to give hem. Their stomach and bowel are not stron? enough for satt, purgative waters or cathartic pills, txivrder or tcleis. Give them a mild, pleasant, trenile.

STORIES FROM THE NATIONAL CAPITAL From The Palladium's Special Correspondent, Ralph M. Whiteside

Washington, Feb. 13. Senators and congressmen are having their "likenesses taken" these days. The new congressional directory is to be illustrated and, of course, every member of both branches wants to look his prettiest. "Uncle Joe" Cannon was asked for his favorite photograph and forgot to bring it with him several times. Finally the agent having his matter in charge impressed the speaker so much that ho remembered to bring a picture with him. The agent met him outside the Beaatc chamber. "Did you bring that photograph, Mr. Cannon?" was asked. "Yep, got you this time," said Uncle Joe, fishing in his coat-tails pocket. "Got 'er here somewhere. There you are." And he drew forth a faded old dangerreotype. "Why, Mr. Cannon, this will hardly do," said the agent. "You were not more than 20 years old when this was taken. It would not be representative." "That's what you asked for ;my favorite picture. That's it. I was a pretty husky lad in those days, too. Could shoulder two bushel of wheat while standing on a half-bushel measure. And 1 could put the grapevine twist on any able-bodied hand in the neighborhood. That's my favoiite photograph, all right, for all it is minus chin adornment. Still, if you'd prefer the picture of a man who's running into years, for all he feels like a chore boy, I'll bring you one flown tomorrow. John Wesley Gaines, of Tennessee, I hear, had a photograph made especially for the directory. Ilofore posing he slicked up his damask hair and fixed a graceful curl over his coat collar. 1 have not seen the proof, but I have been assured that it is a good one. The photographer did not succeed in getting a good negative until he had posed his subject three or four times. Whatever was the reason common report will have but one explanation, that being that Mr. Gaines, who, as every one knows, is a great talker., insisted on declaiming a few things to the photographer while the camera was in action. The result was a number of spoiled plates. Finally, the story goes, the photographer, becoming ' tired of ruiniiig plates, brought forth a chair, sat down and listened attentively to Mr. Gaines Just Smiles WATER-WAGON On agin! Off agin!

PAVING THE WAY. "George," said tho pretty girl, T know you're awful bashful." This was portentious. with leap year so new. He Mushed assent. "And you'd hae proposed to me

for a half hour. When he finished and was quite still, the camera clicked and the job was done. A number of funny things happened over this new photographing business. A new member from Wisconsin produced a picture .showing a fine expanse of white vest. He happened to be smoking a cigar whn the picture was made. He was persuaded that he would appear more dignified and more in keeping with the general form if he had another photograph made, this time wearing a frock coat. Senator Beveridge, by the way, does not cling to the sack coat when it comes to having his photograph appearing in the directory. He quickly went back to the formal frock coat. Senator Beveridge, snortly after his marriage, donned the sack coat and set a new fashion iu the senate. He looked quite youthful but immeasurably more comfortable than his fellowmembers. He said he saw no reason why a business suit was not in keeping with the dignity of the senate, but when it come to being photographed it is quite a different matter.

Speaker Cannon "got back" at i i member who thought he had a grievance because of his committee assignment in a manner that had the real smell of earth. The member insinuated that, the speaker displayed something more than partiality for the Illinois delegation and for others whose names stood for help in the coming campaign. "Out where 1 come from." said Mr. Cannon, "we don't think there's anything wrong about buying our own children pants before we go over the country with presents of neckties for the neighbors' youngster: ." Representative Burton, of Ohio, knows all about, books and he likes to talk about them. During a discussion the other day Mr. Burton said that Mark Twain was the only American author whose every book had a real value. In explaining this extravagant praise, the Congressman said that while in Russia a few years ago inspecting harbor and river work, he was escorted over the country by Prof. Thiomenoff, who was greatly interested in the Mississippi. He asked many questions about this great waterway, and about, a year ago when he was in this country he inspected it. except for that?" This, too, he was bound to acknowledge. "Well, I would have accepted." she went on on, "and so that's settled." Discussing the matter later on, she expressed a natural pride that she had not taken any advantage of the seasou.

Prof Thiomenoff asked if he could procure some book, telling of the river's past greatness and cause of the deterioration of traffic. Congressman I-urton immediately recommended "Life on the Mississippi'' as the most learned and truthful work on the subject ever written.

Xo, it is a mistake to suppose that tho Presidential possibilities hate each other. Occasionally they moot and they smile a really smile. Mr. Bran came face to face with Secretary Taft the other day. Both were genial. "Well, Mr. Secretary," said Mr. Bryan, "the next President will be named Bill all right that's assured." A little later, so the story goes, Mr. Bryan discovered Secretary Taft in the Democratic cloakroom of the House. "Hey!" he. cried. "Shinny on your own side. I'm working this side of the street." ''Oil, we go on all sides theso days," answered the Secretary. "Yes, especially when you want policies and platforms," retorted Bryan. Major General Bell. Chief is urging the restoration of of Staff, the canteen to the army. "I am satisfied that the abolition of the canteen has done great harm to the army," he says. "Morals ami discipline have suffered in consequence. The sooner we have the canteen, the better tho arm v' will be." Peter Porter has a great way of avoiding questions relating to the candidacy of his brother-in-law Governor Hughes, for the Presidency. He says he admires the man greatly, then hastens to tell this story: "There was a certain chaplain in the army during the Spanish war who bought he was -not doing enough to earn his salary. He volunteered to act as postmaster for the regiment and his proposition was quickly accepted. "After a few days he began to suspect that he was doing too much for his salary. The soldiers bothered the life out of him, asking when the next mail would he in. "One evening, to gain a little rest, he posted this sign in front of his tent: 'The chaplain does not know when the next mail will be in.' "During the evening a wag added in bold letters: 'Moreover, the chaplain don't give a damn." " News of the T. P. A. We believe that it is the duty of Post C, as a representative body of travloaLm ,K ,- tr i,,i.ri in,l in I i:i n i: i: men of Richmond, to take up in their meetings tbe subject of interurban ! freight service in Richmond, and takoj some action on this niaiter. Post. (' has a membership of "JO, comprising almost all of the traveling men in Richmond, numbers of jobbers and manufacturers of Richmond., and represents more people directly affected by interurban freight service than any other organization in the city. The shipping interests of Richmond arc not united on this subject, and instead of demanding that tho controversy between the city of Richmond and tho Terro Haute, Indianapolis fc Eastern be speedily settled, and t heinterests of tho long suffering shippers be protected, they are practically doing nothing. U is understood that' some of the larger shippers and manufacturers, who are not so visibly affected by the discontinuance of interurban freight service are willing to do without it to keep the freight cars from running up and down Main street. From the Commercial club nothing is expected, as the diversity of interests represented there, are such1 that the subject will never be taken' tip and discussed in the light, that a : great many shippers and traveling i men view it. j Post C of the Travelers Protective 1 association does not cater to any cor-; poration nor transportation line, it ' ' ha.i no superintendent of railways, ; nor high officials in these corpor- j ations, on it's board of directors. You ' talk to the average traveling man and ; the average shipper, who is affected, and he don't care what streets in Richmond the interurban freight car3 run on. just, so he gets his freight, service. The thing was concocted in the beginning by the East End, Main street residents not wanting the cars to pass their doors, and listened to by our elastic council, which adopted the resolutions that they so wisely advised, and afterwards when questioned about it stated that it was true patriotism and for the good, of the city. In tho interest of that part of the shipping interests of Richmond, who are suffering daily from the lack of t ast bound freight service, and who are wearing horses and drays out, losing what little religion they and their employes have, carting goods to the west side for shipment, let's do something. This dilatory slow way of handling this matter has got beyond all human endurance, and with tho interurban j freight service as it is and handled as 1 it is. and with our meat inspection ( ordinance barring us from farmer's j products, traveling t.:en report that it; is no uncommon thing for them to j Leif Richmond m.uie fun of for it's! bungling method of handling matters, j Wt.- Wlicve that it would be a wise j -u"5 '-or Post C to take up this ones-' tion and discuss it. and adopt some resolutions regarding it. We understand that one of the best speakers of the city will talk on this subject at one of our smokers, taking the side of the traveling men and the small shipper, who is affected most by the discontinuance of interurban freight service.
