Unless somebody cuts, the rate in

it is at least fair to explain why it

The fact that Harry Thaw does
not direct his lawyers in the de-
fense of his case should not be
accepted by Jerome as an indica-
cation of the defendant’s mental
unsoundnesS. When a man
spends a quarter of million dol-
lars on a bunch of lawyers he
wants them to earn it without be-
ing told how.

This season finds each department full, of mer-
chandise of unqestionable value in v.-

In bidding Hearst a welcome
to leave the democratic party,'
the Tammany Times says a
plenty in th,ese few words: Nd
one can oppose democracy and
claim its name and privileges at
the same time, and democracy
.can well afford to say good bye
to every man who uses the great
party of the people for his per-
sonal advancement at the public
cost.

It is now estimated that the
Christian churches of this coun-

thought this vast sum will ke
more than doubled. The people
who will control at that time this
stupenduous wealth are now in
the Sunday schools and leagues.
Is it * worth while to give them
sympathetic attention or not?-
