San Francisco is wondering it the Haas affair Is not a cheaper way than having an earthquake to overturn things and acquire newspaper advertising.
Having disposed of Mr. Root and Mr. Roosevelt, It Is time some Interest Is taken In finding Mr. Loeb a situation.

THE LABOR DINNER. The much discussed labor dinner of the president has come and gone. So much comment has been evoked by the function that is well to remark that It has always been the custom of the present occupant of the white house, when he wants to get at the heart of a matter, to invite the persons concerned to convene at his luncheon or dinner table. It was so in the now famous Booker Washington affair, and in many other cases which have not been called into the limelight While none of the matters under
consideration have been formally giv
en out to the public, it is quite certain that It bears directly on the points
which were brought up in the last
campaign. It is a singularly good proof of Mr. Roosevelt's sincerity In
. the things be had to say in the last
campaign; that he was "honestly interested" In the cause of labor. The campaign is over, there is no cause for valid criticism which Is certain In
some parts as to Its being a grand stand play. The president has done well after the harsh things which have been said on both sides to make the attempt to see what the attitude of representative labor leaders is. True, the chief executive Is not the congress, but It Is certain that legislative measures which have the stamp of the president and bis backing are more likely to have some action taken on them, Nor Is this the least gain; Mr. RooBevelt has from, the vtry beginning been conspicuous for bis power in creating popular sentiment and public opinion and this above all other things is what the cause of organized labor must have behind it Lacking that it must continuously despair of gaining its points. It is so obvious that this public sentiment must have a solid basis of fairness that It seems hardly necessary to mention it but the truth is that public sentiment on the subject of labor Is at present divided shaply into two camps, namely: Thost who think that every thing advocated by organised labor is vicious and those who think that every thing advanced by the unions is fair and just, simply because It Is advocated by certain men. Either view is entirely wrong. Whatever was agitated at the din
ner, one thing seems necessary and that is a proper code or bill of right which shall put an end to the hazy ' idea which rest Entirely on much mooted legal decisions. Then there
will be less friction and less misun
derstanding. As-Taft said in hjs
speech of acceptance It is quite neces
sary that we look at the subject from the point of view of the man who thinks himself abused. It may well be , that a bill of rights which will put the status of organised labor on a solid
footing will put an end to the discussion which was so rampant in the recent campaign about the Injunction
question. If so it will dear the at mosphere tremendously. It seems to the more or lees un
prejudiced observer that something
should be done. Bat it is equally cer
tain that whatever is done should have for its basis not the tearing
down of the right to conduct business
or their right to consider business as
a property right for that would throw the country into a turmoil which
would cripple industrial life In regard to both labor and capital. In other
words any legislation should be con
structive rather than destructive. But such legislation must neeessar
ily be of a difficult sort and its rise
may have to be of a gradual nature.
Nothing can . be expected to happen "right off the bat The president can
recommend, but unless public opinion
Is very strong indeed, it is doubtful
whether any thing will happen at the
special session of congress. It is to be hoped that this is merely a pre
lude to what most people desire to see
In Taft's administration.
ROOSEVELT PRAISES Y. WJj. A. WORK No Organization Deserves Better Support.
Washington, Nov. 18. I doubt if there is a movement among the movements that one can broadly term philanthropic in the country which better deserves the interest and support of our people than the movement for Young Women's Christian Associations." Thus spoke President Roosevelt to a gathering of prominent young women of Washington, who called at the white house on the president's invitation to receive his congratulations on the slindld work being done by the Young Women's Christian Association in this city, to shake hands with Mrs. Roosevelt and Mm. The president reviewed the work being done by the Young Women's Christian Association in this city, expressing his gratitude to the workers and bespeaking for them the support necessary to erect an adequate building.
WILL NOT MISS MADISON SQUARE GARDEN
New Amusement Palace Over
Railroad Tracks Planned.
New York, Nov. 18. New Yorkers
will not miss long the Madison Square Garden if a new plan to build an
amusement palace in the heart of the city, which has been divulged, is car
ried out
A proposition, to construct a mam
moth amusement arena and show place upon one of the great squares over the New York Central railroad
tracks, north of Forty-fifth street, has been laid before that company.
It has been demonstrated by practic
al tests that such a structure would not be affected by vibration or by the
noise from the trains. Experts declare that a grand opera house,. built over those tracks, would not be marred at all by the close proximity of the railroad on the surface underneath it.

Chicago Murderer Sentenced
By Judge.
Chicago, 111., Nov. 18. Herman Bil-
lek, convicted of the murder of five members of the Vzral family, was sentenced by Judge Barnes Tuesday to
hang on December 11. The fight of
Blllek, aided by his friends, for liberty, which carried the case before the
United States supreme court, has at
tracted wide attention.
BUlek, a fortune teller, whose in
come was derived from the ignorant and superstitious, used arsenic in causing the death of the Vwals, all of whose lives were insured, and which money Billek is said to bavo planned to secure. He first was sentenced to hang on October, 1907, and since that
time he has been reprieved four times.
SUGAR TRUST DENIAL Said That There Was No Intent to Defraud Uncle Samuel. EXPLANATION IS GIVEN.
New York, Nov. 18. The charge of fraud in the weighing of sugar on which the United States government bases its suit to recover $3,724,000 from the American Sugar Refining company was denied in a statement issued by that company. The allegations of the government are that it has been defrauded of duties on sugar for six years past, and it asks for Sl,500,000 in duties and the forfeiture of sugar valued at $2,224,000 on which it charges that customs duties have not been paid. The American Sugar Refining company in its statement declares that during that six years the company has paid nearly $3,000,000 In customs duties and that the claim of the government is for about a half of one per cent on that amount The company asserts that no two persons weighing the amount of sugar calling for the payment of that duty could make the weight agree within the difference claimed by the government. The charge, the company says, carries its own refutation.

Chicago Forger Remains to Identify Spurious Paper
Chicago, Nov. 18. Peter Van Vlissingen, whose arrest for forgeries which will reach $700,000, caused a sensation, decided late Tuesday to forego temporarily his desire to begin serving his prison sentence immediately. Ha will remain In Chicago a sufficient time to aid In untangling his business affairs, which the Chicago Title and Trust company, the assignee, found in snarled condition. So clever were his forgeries of notes and mortgages that thcassignees were
l unable to tell the genuine from the
spurious when they were presented by anxious holders and they had to be referred to the prisoner. One batch ta-

ken to the jail showed a face value of $38,000. Half of the papers, readily distinguished by the man who devised them, wero forgeries. All day long Van Vlissingen's former office, now tenanted by the clerks of the assignee, was besieged by holders of paper purchased from the confessed forger. The clerks were making no effort to ascertain who were Van Vlissingen's victims, confining their efforts to searching for assets. Such notes as were presented for verification, however, were taken to the prisoner for the purpose. It was pointed out to him that his presence here for a few days at least is essential and he finally agreed to stay.

San Antonio, Tex., Nov. 18. "My friends do not require me to prejudice the future and I shall not take the adVice of my opponents on this subject. I shall continue to write and speak in defense of things which I believe to be good for the American people. 1 hope it may never become necessary to run for office again, but I will not attempt to decide that question until the time comes to act. I do not see any necessity to say more on the subject" In answer to the direct question, "Will you run" for the presidency again if conditions arise to warrant it?" W. J. Bryan dictated the above statement. Regiyding the future of the Democratic party, he said: "I am not at all discouraged as to the future of the Democratic party. There must be a Democratic party in every country and I want our party to be Democratic and I have no doubt the country will see the necessity for the adoption of the reforms advocated by the Democratic party. It is already a great educational force, and I have no doubt conditions will so vindicate the party as to make the voters turn to it as the best instrument for the accomplishment of the necessary reforms." "Will you allow yourself to be elect
ed United States senator from Nebraska?" he was asked. "They do not elect a senator this year,' he said with a smile. "But they do two years from now," he was reminded. "You have my statement regarding my future so far as I care to say," and he smilingly refused to discuss the subject further. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan are enroute to Mexico.
Miss Clara M. Howard has been appointed to the International fellowship founded by the Society of American women in London. She Is instructor in rhetoric and composition at Wellesley College.
