In this week's Issue of the pnper. The Columbus Telenram. Howard has a signed editorial saying that while he Is convinced that he niado his charges Indisputable, he will not KO behind the election returns. This 1 what he says: "During the week 1 noticed In the Un coln Journal a statement to the effect that 1 would probubly ask the new Nebraska legislature to investigate my charges ah'ali.at Cllbert M. Hitchcock, who received the ma K illy preferential vote for I'nited Ktafea senator. "The Journal's Information was faulty. I have not considered, and sba'l not take auch a slep. I bow to the decision of the people of my state. I made my charges In irood fnlth, and proved them beyond the st hilow of doubt. The submission of my proof ended nil the duty devolving upon ruo. )! a. large majority the people of Nebraska, said by their votee that they preferred Mr. Hitchcock for senator, even if the sr.eloui charges were absolutely true. 1 believe In the rule of the majorttv. Tlie majority is not always right, but under our system of government It Is always right for every cltlxen. and particular! every lemocrat. to be loyal to the Tolce of tha people. In that belief I shall take no ateps lo prevent the election of Mr. Hitchcock by the Nebraska lesislature. He won his f I at lit before the people. He Is entitled to .he fru ts of bis victory. I make thia itateiuent beosnso I believe It Is right to :ak it. I shall hoe tht the new senator nay disappoint me by making a good eeord In behalf of humanity and demo jratlc principles. I yield no Inch of ground occupied by me durinir the late campaign. withdraw no sioken nor printed word ittered before election day. My cause ap Tvars un Just to me today aa ever, but my fight ended on eUctlon dav. On that day the nialorttv of NVbraskans said they .anted Mr. Hitchcock as their senator, and t shall not now be my part to attempt o defeat tlie will of fhe majority." aaal Progress Is Kscelleut.

Successful Case of Mkln Ornftlns. HILDRKTH, Neb., Nov. 20. (Special.) Dr. Mahaffey haa successfully treated one of the most difficult cases this com munity has known In years. On Septem ber 10 Ed Vansteenburg. at that time man ager of the Farmers' elevator, was badly burned when he was caught In the en gine and gasoline at his feet caught fire from matchea In his pockets. In trying to liberate himself he lacerated his left leg about the knee so badly that amputa tion seemed the only feasible plan. The doctor determined to make amputation tlie last resort, with the result that the leg was saved. A sore Just below the knee cap refused to heal and tha bona was ex posed six inches in length and one Inch In width. He called on the people of the town for new skin to graft on this place with the result thai half the men and sev eral women and girls Bre nursing sore arms at present. He has been grafting from twenty-five to fifty pieces of sklu daily. The pieces are a half Inch long and about the width of a tine of a steel fork. Only one grafting lias refused to grow, a second lot taken from the arm of Mr. Vansteenburg' s brother. Ilnra Burned Near Grand Island.. . GRAND ISLAND, Neb.. Nov. 30-.Spe-clal.)

Thirteen horses were Incinerated, a!so several cows and a calf. All of the harness. . hay and grain were destroyed. Several cows In an annex to the main building were saved. Tho door, the nature of which la auch that It could not have been farther closed or opened by the wind, was left open last night only auffldently to permit the watch dog to enter the barn.

The paekers' "iiolesale prices for food products now. as compared with the maxi mum high prices of the decade, which was In last January, as quoted In the a? coir.panying table, show a material reduc tion. The dressed beef Includes what Is known as "No. 1,'' the best product. The figures are for hundredweights, or in pounds bj the cent. The prices remained at the top unt.l well along In the spring, when the Influx of lambs and sheep caused th first break. Cattle, which sold as high as $11 per hun dredweight began to drop and po'k fol lowed. Wheat mid Corn l.onrr, Wheat, which sold a year aito at $1.1:2 a bushel, la below !! cents. Coin, which sold at 70 cents, Is now V cents. The same percentage of declines applies to poultry. Chickens and turkeys aro L"5 per cent cheaper than a year ago. Ilacon is standing like a stone wall. H Is selling retail sit :!3 cents a pound, right at the top. This Is explained by the packers in the statement that very few baoun Iiohs are coining into the market. The bacon hog must be lean and the, run of hops now. Is above the average weight. It is only a matter of time umil the bacon must .conn; down. It has advanced from the normal price of 14 cents to the present high point. Flour Is $1 per barrel under the price In January and Is scheduled for a big de cline. Although tlie country bus raised but a normal wheat crop there Is no ex port demand. Other wheat raising coun tries raised bumper crops and are under selling the United States on all consum ing countries. This cuuntry has ax,000.(X bushels for export. It Is not going out and Is a tremendous weight on the market. Wheat haa declined M cents and corn 13 cents since January 1. An explanation Made. The explanation of the onrush of food supplies Is given thus. Three years ago prices for hogs and cattle were so low that farmers took to automobiles and gave up stock raising. Then came food scarcity with record high prices. This caused tho farmer to about face and for eighteen months he has been raising cattle and hogs aa he never did before. While the wholesale prices are declin ing, retailers are stubborn, resisting the Idea of lower prices. Here In Chicago it is not forgotten that the national organi zation of butchers made a study of condi Uona aud proved that local retail grocers and butchers made 40 per cent profit on their-sales. Thia waa last spring. Butter and eggs are two trust controlled articles that refuse to come down. Mutter was Jarred down several cents by the gov er,ninut. -suit against the bllgln butter bo aid, but It has been climbing bark. WESTERN BUSINESS PICKS UP (Continued from First Page.) of carpenters, bricklayers and other build ers Rut while Salt Lake City has been laboring under the burdens of a reaction, Ogden has been going ahead as never be fore. There are a dosen large business blocks under construction and others plan ned. New streets are being opened In the business districts and new avenues In the residential part of the city. The foundation having been completed, work waa started yesterday on the walls of the Browning Brothers' business block on the newly opened Hudson avenue.

Pleasing signs oT the country's prosperity are the "Santa Clans" trains coming from tha east. Within the last week a doien trains, made up almost entirely of Christ mas goods, have arrived In Ogdeiu There la everything in these consignments from Jumptiig-Jacks to Victor Vlctrrdas. and old Saint Nick Is having an almost endless task set him by the Indulgent heads of families, who. disregarding the cry of hlffk prices, fee: equal to the occasion and a buying by the trainload.

"The Fruits of Enlightenment." a comedy; "The Kingdom of Ood Is Within You," "What Is Art?" "The Christian Teaching," "flesurrecUou." "The Slavery of Our Times," "What is Itellglon?" and many other works on the most varied sub jects. in Ifvl Tolstoi was excommunicated by the holy synod and In October. V12, he de posited his memoir and diaries with the curator of the Flumynnzoff museum on the condillun that they should not be published until ten years after his death and In No vember of the same year he legally made over his whole fortune. Including his real and personal estate, to hla wife and chil dren. In lKi Tolstoi wrote a powerful vindica tion of the Dukhobor, sect, which In that year had suffered great persecution for its religious professions. On the Ilusaian cen sor refusing to permit Its publication. Tol stoi applied to the London Times, which pr.nted the lengthy article In full. lie continued from that time on to address his literary efforts to the British press. On March 17. li, the London Daily Chronicle published a lengthy letter from Tolstoi to a correspondent in Kuginid on the Vene zuela dispute which had then recently arisen between F.ngland and the United States. It contained a strong Indictment of war. Threatened vrith Kille. Tolstoi was several times threatened with expulsion from ' Russia, and was several times. It la said, on the point of being ex iled, but seemed on the whole to have been treated with unusual leniency. In view of Ids pronounced views especially aa set forth In a manifesto entitled, "The People'3 Right," hla criticism of Imperial acts and Ms open letter to the emperor. He was, however, expelled front Moscow In July 1901, and had since resided at Yai naya Pollana. His health at that time was poor and for a time his life waa In danger, but he regained hla strength and resumed work. Later he suffered a relapse and In February 1W2 was reported dying. Again he rallied und In June Ills recovery was complete. In July l:4 Tolstoi wrote au article de nouncing the Russo-Japanese war, which caused the seizure of the Novostl of St. Petersburg which published it. and a re vival of the reports of the government' in tention to take severe' action against the author. In June HJf Tolst4 published an open letter, to the emperor retarding the Internal condition In Russia, which was printed throughout the world and some time later he completed his drama. "Be hind the Scenes tn War" UieproUuctlon of which waa prohlb ted In St Petersburg. The London Times of September I, 1S0S, printed a seven-column article .by Tolstoi entitled "A Great Inlcjulty,1', dealing ith the land question and TJeclarlng that Russia is living through an Important time that 1 destined to have enormous results. The article was largely devoted to the theories of Henry George and declared that the land question had reached .a stage of ripeness such as fifty year ago waa reached by tha question of serfdom. Predicted Coinlnai' of Yellow Peril. , In he wrote a letter to Paul Sauba tier of Paris as a reply to the latter's buoic on the dlaeetabllshmeiit of the church of France. In this communication the Rus sian writer predicted tha possible induction of all tha Christian countries of the west to a atata of vassalage to the Japanese and other oriental people, bating his pre diction on the ground that It la only In the orient that religion und patriotism are synonymous. On the occasion of Tolstoi's eightieth birthday extensive oleUratioua warn held, although they were strongly disapproved by the Russian government and were made the aubjeot of an appeal by the holy aynod to all believers to abstain from participa tion. 1 Several publishers ef Tolstoi1 work have been sent to prison. Of these, M. Selden was sentenced to sic. months imprisonment in 1IM for publishing; and distributing tha pamphlets "Thou Bhait Net Kill," "A Let ter of Liberals' and "Christianity and Patriotism." The venerable writer addressed a note to tlie court, challenging th proaeouUoB of himself Instead of tha publisher, but the magistrate did not . venture to institute proceedings againat Tolstoi and the govern ment took no notica of the challenge. Hruonneed Privileaes of Class. Although Tolstoi came of an aristocratic family, being a descendant of Count Peter .Tolstoi, the friend and comrade of Peter the Great and receiving his education at Kazan university, entering th army a a lieutenant of artillery and commanding; a btttery at Sebastopol, he waa at btart a peasant In the best sense of the word, devoted to the Improvement of the Russian masses and eager to lead them In the right path. With these objects In view he, a early aa 1870, organised peasant school on a new original educational basis, co-operated In the Improvement of cheap, popular publi cations, organised relief for the starving population bf middle Russia (In ICil-Uft.'), renounced his property In copyright, land and money and In the recent agrarian dis turbances, actually but vainly Invited the peasants to plunder Ms estate at Tasnaya Poliana. There he lived the life of a peasant, in a peaxant'a hut, partaking only of the simple peasants' food and earing the peasants' costume rough blouse, broad leather belt, fur cap, long beard and wld trousers tucked Into high, cowhide boots. But although Tolstoi chose the existence of a peasant, his family occupied, tha sub stantial family manaion on the Yanuya Pollana estate, not far from Tolstoi's peas ant hut. In the mansion was the author's library and there he went whenever he desired to dictate to his secretary, Tolstoi was a great reader and amongst his recreations were chess, cycling, lawn tennis and swlmmim;.

AUSTRIA AND GERMANY LEAD Law of the Knlaer's Umpire Contem plates Supervision nf Home r Em ployments na Well aa tint side Work, Child-labor legislation In six Kuro pean countrle Austria. Itelluin, France, (lermany, Italy and Switzerland is th suhjoct of an. article printed l'i bulletin S of the Bureau of Labor of the Pepurt ment of Commerce and Labor. All of these nations have recognized the ex istence of a rhlld-labor problem and have attempted to solve It by tnenns of legislation restricting the gainful em ployment of children and by providms a corps of officials whose spci lal taslt It Is to secure compliance with the terms of the law. This article, the results ef a study by Pr. C. W. A. Vedltz. discusses ns well the relation of the school and Inbor laws, the organization and actual work of the labor inspectors, and the present extent and nature of child labor In these coun tries. Austrian leglslntion fixes the regular ago of factory employment for children at 14 years, but children of 12 and IS may be employed if such employment does not Interfere with school, Is not detrimental to health, and does not ex ceed eight hours a d.iy. Below 12 years no regular industrtil employment Is per mitted. In a considerable list of occu pations: regarded na dangerous or injur ious no employment tinder 14 Is per mitted, and in many the employment of children of 14 and i is much restricted. The hours of labor for children under It! munt not exceed eleven, though for s. few Industries twelve hours are per mitted. Night work between the hours of 8 and 6 is prohibited for all children under , except that in Industries with special -needa night work Is permitted for children of 14 and 1J. Many Austrian Children Work Hard. A recent Austrian official Investigation Into the extent and nature of gainful employment among school children un der 14 years of axe indicates that the proportion of these children regularly at work varies from 20 to nearly 60 per cent. A large proportion of the working pupils are employed In agriculture and domestic service, oftentimes at kindM of work which require more strength than children under 14 may reasonably be sup posed to possess. Orphaned children and Illegitimate children furnish a relatively larger quota of child laborers than the other pupils. In Belgium the law regulating child labor permits Industrial employment at 1'.' years, although between IS and W the conditions of work are much restricted. For an ex tended list of occupations regarded as dangerous or Injurious, employment and even presence In the factory Is entirely prohibited. For children under IS the hours of work per day must not exceed six. For children under 16 the hours in many Indus tries are limited to ten. Night work be tween the hours of and S Is prohibited for male under 16 and all female tinder 21 yearn, In a 11st Including many Industries. In France the age at which Industrial employment may legally begin Is 13, but if the school requirements are satisfied and a physician's certificate of physical flt neasj can, be secured, employment- may be gin at U. In occupations regarded as dan geroue, Injurious or unhealthful employ ment under 18 years1 Is prohibited, or even presence In certain classes of factories. The hours of labor are limited to ten per day. Night work between the hours of ft and 6 Is prohibited for all children under 18. ( Oermnn I.nvr lleacues Into Homes. The German law permits Industrial em ployment to IjeKln at 14 years, although work not exceeding six hours per day may begin at IS If the required school attend ance has been completed. For occupations considered as dangerous or Injurious, the employment of children Is prohibited, or Is permitted under special regulations. Fur children under 10 years tho houra of work are limited to 10, and night work Is pro hibited between the houra of 8:30 and b.30. In many respects the most radical de parture in child-labor legislation on the continent I found in th German law ot 1903, which attempt to regulate the em ployment of children In their own homes and under the direction of their parents. This law owes Its enactment lnigety to the systematic Investigation inaugurated by a national 'organization of school-teachers, who became convinced that , the fac tory law had In many instances driven the cluid laborers out of th factories Into home Industries and Into noiUnduatrial pursuits not reached by previous legisla tion. The new law Is not proving easy of euforement, and some time will be re quired to draw conclusion in regard to Its actual effects. Italy and "nltserland. In Italy the law fixes th ago at which Industrial work may be begun at 13 year, though for all workers under 15 years cer tain restrictions are imposed, Including the requirement of a physician's certificate of physical fitness, and In dangerous and In jurious occupation employment Is entirely prohibited. The hour of labor are limited to eleven per day between the age of IS and 15. Night work between the hours of S and t (or between I and 6 from April to September) la prohibited for persons under 16 years and for all females. In Switzerland th law prohibits the fac tory employment of children under 14 years, but for dangeroua or Injurious occupations, which include an extended list, employment may not begin under 16 years. The maxi mum houra of labor per day under H year are eleven. For all employes under 18 years night work between the hours of and 6 (or between S and 5 during June, July and August is entirely prohibited. A striking feature of the study In Swit zerland relates to the employment of school children outside of school hours. A recent Investigation furnished much detailed In formation showing, the employment of very large numhera of children working long hours and at night under such conditions. Inspection Is F. very here. The complaint Is frequent In the reports of the labor Inspectors of all the countries that the staff of Inspectors is Insufficient to carry out th laws with any degree of severity and that the increase in the num ber of inspectors has not .kept pace with the increase in the number of establish ments subject to Inspection. An average of only one-fourth the childien under IC actually In lndu.itr.al employment have the benefit of an Inspector's visit during a single year. A large number of establish ment subject to the law have never, ac cording to the reports, been inspected even onoe. and to inspect all of them with the present staffs would require many years. The Inspectors generally report great re aourcefulnen. both on the part of ein piojera and children. In escaping detection.

The appearance of the chief of engineers upon the platform of the National Kivers and Harbors congres. marks a precedent, a none of the preceding chiefs ot antrliieerk have ever addressed this great body of waterway advocates. Their particular ob jection to thus appearing waa that they were Intimately associated with the recom mendations for the Improvement of the rivers, harbors and canals ot the country and their references to the nam might be regarded as official In character, there fore greater importance might attach to their utterances than would otherwise be tho case. General Hlxby, however, who probably haa a knowiedgo of the water wuys of continental United States aa wide as that of any officer ot the corpa, haa ac cepted the Invitation of President Joseph K.
