His indictment charges it is unnecessary, an invasion upon the principle of the Sabbath, and that we had no Sunday papers previous to the civil war. Unchr the present conditions a man must work day and night to care for his household ex. penses and the education of his family. He does not have time to read during the week; necessarily he must read on Sunday or become a back number. I hold that the Sunday newspaper is the greatest educator of the day, and without it the American man would be placed on the same plane as the serfs of Russia.

The official announcement of the con! summation of long considered plans for the control of the Western Union Tele- graph company by the American Te'ephone and Telegraph company was one of the most Important features of the past week. Whether the Postal Telegraph company is brought into the same combination or not, the consolidation means sa institution second only to the United States Steel corporation in its magnitude.

The capitalization represented in the week's transaction is nearly $530,000,000, an enormous total, to which nearly 000,000 would be added if the Postal interests were included also. If a billion dollar corporation should be organized out of the combination of these several companies, economies would result, to the extent of a number of millions of dollars annually in connection with equipment and operators, telegraph and telephone duplicating work in many instances. With this activity in telegraph and tetephone circles the rumors continue of an effort for the consolidation of copper iaterests with an aggregate capitalization of $500.000.000. land controlling an output of 750.000.000 pounds. Despite the denials that anything more is intended than an agreement that shall check ruleous competition.

it is believed that another great corporation will soon appear. Just what the attitude of the United States government toward these matters will be is not yet clear, but it is possible that the schemes may receive attention calculated to delay negotiations. The decision of the federal court at St. Paul in the Standard Oil case will have deterring influence, even if final determination awaits action in the Supreme court of the land. These movementa toward combination reflect the feeling of confidence in financial circles.

The signs of satisfactory tusiness are observed everywhere. An order for 10,000 new freight cars by the Pennsylvania company evidences a prosperity finding illustration in railway earnings during October exceeding those of any correspon.11ng month in American history. With iron aud steel industries flourishing. construction still gaining in the main. anti ship yards busy, the outlook is extremely hopeful.

The gratifying reports from the cotton industry tell the same story. The quantity of cotton exported in October was greater than that of any correspending period of the past except October. 1905. while the i higher priees secured made these exports Iexceed in value those of any earlier month in the history of The cotton trade in the United States. The total value was while 1.1,3 previous month ever reached the mark.

Such statistic-4 are the more satisfactory when it is recalled that there has been a more rapid growth in cotton exports in recent years than has been noted in connection with any other of the natural products of the United States. The large shipments of wheat and flour, exceeding in late weeks those of any corresponding period iu four years, add encouragement. An easier situatiou in the money market was observable, no oceasiou for aniety being appareut in America, where all branches of business seemed fairly well adjusted. The budget exeltement in England may become a disturbing factor, however. tlie alternatio facing the country of heavier taxation with its increased burden or the borrowing of large amounts with the consequent raising of money rates.

The effect of the political excite-went over the budget was notable in fivancial circles in In the stock market the week end chill, due to the Standard Oil decision. was apparent in several lines.

N. Nov. of The Tribune. Mr. Fetter.

In itis references to Chicago, betrays the painful provincialism of so many easterners. If New York and Brooklyn had the luxury of alleys it would not be necessary for ill smelling garbage wagons andi horrid ash carts to pass through the thoroughfares together with every other kind of traffic. no matter how fine; nor would it be necessary for ash cans and garbage cans to be set out at one's front gate. awaiting disposal. Fortunately.

I live on a corner and have a side gate. so our own cans do not offend my eye to such an extent. but I am the only one in the block so privileged. and the row of cans all the way down this block, and practically all other residents blocks for that matter. is not a spectacle.

The brewers have their strong objections to the budget.

The protective tariff advoates see in the accepted budget the death of the cause of tariff reform.

The two forward cars for the general public were packed both inside and Outside on platforms, while the rear car. a smoker. with a number of empty seats inside, actually had ladies riding on Its forward platform.

The express train arrived at Belmont avenue. About seventy-five passengers got off to take the Ravenswood local. This train. already partly filled, was made up of two cars only. Those who not get into the rear car awaited another train.

The forward car, which the people refused to enter, was a smoker coo. taming a few men, foul air, and an unsightly floor. Ex- EASTERNIa. I It was La Clerva's indifference to parliamentary amenities. indeed.

that brought about the downfall of the Maura administration the other day. For, stung by the attacks of Senor Moret and Count Romanones, the opposition leaders. and their criticisms of recent events at Barcelona, he challenged them in the cortes to say whether or not they had been in favor of pardoning. Ferrer. As they remained silent.

he went on to charge them. especially Moret. with having been really responsible for all the troubles at Barcelona. for the destruction of property. and for the loss of life there through their leniency when in office towards the anarchists in 1906, at the time of the bomb outrage on King Alfonso's wedding day.

It was by faring to punish Ferrer for his complicity on that occasion, according to Sehor La Clerva. that Morel and his fellow leaders of the Liberal party rendered themselves accountable to the natlon for precisely such outrages as those which took place last summer at Barcelona. This exceptionally violent denunciation. which received the approval of Premier Mauna. who leaned forward to shake hands with La Cierva, was regarded by the Liberals at, a gross personal insult to Moret aro to his farmer ministerial colleagues.

and two of the latter visited Slaura On the following morning and informed him that unless an apology were delivered in the cortes to Senator Moret the situation would be Impossible. It must be understood that in Spain it is out of the question for any government to remain in office. no matter how big its parliamentary majority, unless it has what may he called a working consent on the part of the opposition. which by means of obstructive tactics can literally Work all legislation. As the message to Maura meant that if there were no apology there would no longer be any of this working consent on the part of the opposition, and as neither Maura himself nor La Cierva would consider for one moment offering any apology, there nothing left for them to do but to resign.

La Cierva. it is true. offered to appease the opposition by sacrificing himself and resigning alone. but his colleagues, from the prime minister downwards, were so heartily in agreement with his policy and with his utterances that his offer was refused. That is really the explanation of the recent ministerial crisis at Madrid and of the accession to office of a Liberal administration, for which but a short life is predicted.

REFORMING FOOTBALL.

Opinion seems to be general that should be made in the game of football as now played in the colleges. There are two ways of approaching the subject. One is the hysterical method of wholesale denuuciation, sufficient reasou for such an attitude being found in the distressing fatalities attending the game during the season now drawing to a close. The other and more rational one is to study the various formations that are used with the view Of eliminating those that have proved particularly dangerous, at the same time saving a brauch of college sport that interests many thousands during the autumn months. Long experience has hown that action following a stampede is rarely so sane as that which accompanies ilea ref ul st udy, suggested, perhaps, by untoward occurrences.

The newspaper upon this theme shows surprising differences of view. One writer wonders why football accidents have such a peculiar capacity for excitiug a public which fails to note the long roll of the dead attending matoring. limiting. swimming, and other outdoor sports with which a constant element Of danger is counected. Another claims that the possibility of loss of life or a-erious injury gives football its real attractiveness and makes comparisons to its disadvantage with bull fights in Latin countries or the most brutal sports of.

ancient Rome. such a criticism reflecting discredit upon American civilization in reality rather than. primarily, upon the game itself. Much stronger than the radical positions, however, is that taken by the majority, who urge evidently needed alterations rather than abolition. The actien of the athletic board of the University of Chicago in instrueting its represeutative on the committee of the conference colleges to work for modifications in the rules looking toward greater safety in the game is a wise step.

Mr. Stagg is one of the western members of the national rules committee and will be able to use his influence in that body also. his live suggestions for improvements have much to commend them. Other close followers of the game are studying its defects with a view of lessening the dangers. It is reasonable to believe that the events of the season of 1909 will be recognized by the rule makers as compelling arguments for substantial modifications beneficial to players and the game Itself.

Petersburg. that he has given directions for careful search to be made, from cellar to garret. of every one of the royal palaces. especially the older ones. and has insisted that every article should be duly catalogued and the news of any find communicated to him.

Thus far this search has been restricted to Windsor. where it was brought about by the totally unexpected discovery by the princess of Wales, while roaming about the castle last year, of an extremely valuable collection of old ivory miniatures of the reigns of George III and George of the existence of which up to that time not only the members of the royal family but also Lionel Cust, the member of the household charged with the care of the kinies pictures and works of art, had been in complete Ignorance. They are now displayed in the great library of the castle. This led the king to give orders for a thorough examination of every apartment, every corridor, every cellar. and every garret in the castle in order to ascertain what it contained.

The search is still In progress, and although hundreds of other objects of analogous Intrinsic artistic and historic value have already been brought to light, the investigation is not yet completed. For the castle, portions of which date back nearly a thousand years. is a huge pile of buildings of various epochs and extending over an Immense area. As no definite plan Is In existence of the castle, there are scores and scores of rooms, garrets. and vaults of which no record can be found.

Some of them have remained unopened and untouched for a hundred years or more. TMAGINE. it you can. the wild Joy In Cherry when all those triners were brought out of that death trap MON. I do not need to embrace Christian Science or New Thought of any kind to rid myself of nine.

The seriousness of the crisis over the budget is uot understood unless the events of many loug years of national history are passed in review. The proposed action Of the lords is counted au act of war upon representative government. "The crown demands money, the commons grants it, and the lords assent to the grant," is the custom which has as strong as law.

As phrased in a dispatch in another column of THE TutuUNE today, the power, pride, and ilajesty of the eoinmons" are due to the control of the finances. The power, of the purse has been the greatest lever with which the popular chamber has worked for over 500 years. As early as 1379 the right of the commons to investigate accounts and 'appropriate the supplies was clearly established. It fell into disuse after Henry but was revivcd in 1624 and again in 1641, and then firmly determined as an undisputed principle under Charles II. in 1666.

In connection with a quarrel in 1407 it was agreed that all money bills should originate in the commons. In 1593, under Elizabeth, the principle was again asserted, the court party failing to secure a conference with the lords by the decisive vote of 217 to 12S. When, in 1640, Charles I. tried to get around the obstructicn the principle was reiterated with indignant objection against the breach of the privileges of the commons. In 1671 and again in 16.89 the right of the lords "to pass aldoor reject all without diminution or alteration" was explicitly admitted by the commons, but as the exercise cr this right involved the withholding of for the crown the lords were hesitant about using it.

And so, while the legal right of the lords to reject any bill, financial or otherwise, remains, the law has been superseded by convention and 1 I i I 1 I THE STREET SUPERINTENDENT.

In fact. the castle Is In certain respects a vast treasure house. of the contents of which no one possesses any definite knowledge, since it has been the custom for each of the long succession of sovereigns who have occupied the British throne since the conquest- to Inaugurate their reign and their occupancy of Windsor castle by relegating to the storerooms. the garrets. and the vaults all the chief and most cherished belongings of thelr predecessors.

What is the case with Windsor castle Is equally so with other royal palaces, such as those of St. James. Hampton court. Holyrood, which, precisely because they have been les5 used by the reigning house. are more likely to contain treasures of which sight has been lost.

As I have mentioned above, they are now all to be subjected to a thoroughgoing search by order of the king. 1 i Causes of Worry.
