PHILADEWHIA, Jan. 2n.-The 2-cent
railroad far law now in force In Pennsyl
vania, was today declared unconstitutional
by the state supreme court, which handed
down an opinion affirming the decision
of the common pleas court of Philadelphia,
rendered last September. The vote of the
court was 4 to S, the dissenting opinion
being handed down by Justice Mestrexat.
' Th railroad contended" that the law was
nuconstltutlonal In' that It waa unreason
able and confiscatory, and , the court In a
decision sustained the company's conten
tion. "The corporation Is entitled to make a
fair' profit on every branch of its business
subject to the limitation that its corprate
duties must be performed even though at
a toss. What Is a fair profit Is a highly
complicated and difficult" question. The,
court below availed themselves of all the
best evidence that was offered or shown
to be attainable, considered It ' with ex
emplary patience and care, and their con
clusion that the enforcement of the act of
1907 against the complainant would do In
justice to the corporators Is beyond Just
criticism."

FALL8 CITY. Neb.. Jan. 18. TO the
Editor of The Bee: Here Is a letter in
the Kansas City Star which I would
like to see you print for the bonofit if
old line democrats like myself. It Is
signed by John Murtey of Verona, Neb.,
add reads as follows:
"Can you tell us Nebraska democrats
why Missouri democrats still want
Bryan? Missouri . democrats know liat
he used Bland an a decoy In tho Chi
cago convention In 1S96 to bring the
nomination to himself. They now know
that his charges against Judge- Parker
before th . St. Louis convention were
false and that he again Used a Missouri
democratSenator Cookrell as a decoy
again to bring the nomination to him
self. Ills object in denouncing Judge
Parker, Sullivan and Qulnn Of Illinois
and others was to demoralize the con
vention and control more than one-third
of the delegates and in hope that In
aheer desperation It would make him
the candidate at St. Louis. He failed,
and now Missouri democrats want to re
ward him for th way he has demor
alised the party. ,
"I have been a member of tho county
central committee here for about 'twelve
years and whew we want to push a lo
cal democratic candidate we never men.
lion that he Is a Bryan man. All the
republicans of Nebraska, and at least
one-fourth of the democrats of Nebraska
never have been Bryan men. Why do
Missouri democrats want to humiliate
the party by bringing on a- more
crushing defeat than wc have ever had?
The insurance and trust investigation
have proved that Judge Pa:er was
right and honest and Bryan wrong,
enau we, as democrats, reward the
wrong and punish those that were right?
The plain fact is Bryan's abuse of Judge
Parker when he hired halls In Omaha,
Chicago and New York and lits claim
that Judge Parker was tha candidate of
the trunts 'caused the democratic party
to lose a half million votes at the polls
and caused Missouri -to go into the re
publican column, where it win stay if
Taft is nominated by the republicans
and Bryan by the democrats.

A PAPER FUND IS PLANNED

The Young' Women's Christian associa
tion has devised a plan by which. It hopes
to not only raso a' substantial part of tho
,uw mcessary to equip and furnish Its
new bull ling, but to relieve Omaha house
keepers and some others of a nuisance.
ine women propose to get together all
the waste paper in the city and sell it;
in tact, the committee has already ar
ranged for the sale of all tha old nowv
i ..iters, waste paper, magazines and too
like thatcn be collected, and on ev.rv
w.ooo pounds it will clear 1100. CominUt.-es
of women in tha various churches of t:ie
city will assist -the association by soliciting
and maintaining some place wher j paper
from their districts' may be collected. One
txnirni-piace to oonerting trw paper will
also be maintained and will bo open' Fri
day and Saturday of each ween, banning
January 31 and continuum until May 1.
Tho location of these plv:3S wfll be an
nounced as Boon as decided upon and any
information may be had by telephoning

It will be necessary, however, for people
to partially sort their paper. Newspapers,

Speaking of the plan, Mrs. George Tilden,
onairman of tho association's finance com
rrutteo, aald: "If the housekeepers of

mey can ail contribute something to this
great work for young women and kt tho

LET ALLISON STAY IT OUT
Iowa Democrat gars Sentiment Favor
Waiting; Policy on Part of
'' rnmnlni.
"There is a growing feeling In Iowa that
Oo-ernor A. B. Cummins should wait Ms
time to go to tho senate Instead of making
a fight on Senator Allison this year, but
there will be a fight and a big one," said
Charlea A. Dickson, former democratic
candidate fof congress In tho "big Eleventh
district," who tn In' Orriaha with a case at
the federal', building.
"I would like to ace Governor Cummins
go to the senate, fin would a large number
of democrats snd the progressive repub
licans, but, as ScTiator Dolllver put It at
Council Bluffs, 'allow the aged Senator
Allison to pass to-hlsr reward, stilt clutch
ing In his ' trembling , fingers .the commis
sion of the people, of Iowa, which he has
held so many years.'
"Outside of this sentimental feeling Gov
erpor Cummins has the friends. But Sen
ator Allison has -won distinction for his
state and thero la no" need to denj him
the privilege, of rtturn.
"Then, I cannot explain the Torbet let
ter which the Iowa governor wrote during
his campaign for governor. In which he
stated plainly that he was not a candidate
for the senate. Ar f understand It, the
governor explains It now as not being a
candidate at that time,- but having the
right to be a candidate to succeed Senator
Allison when his term of office expires
nxt year." , '
"How do Iowa "democrat feel about
Bryan?" - -;',-'
"Well, John C. Kelly of th Independent
Sioux City Tribune, .an old dyed-ln-th.
wool gold democrat whp supported Parker
In 1904, has expressed my sentiments about
Bryan as much as I hate to have them go
on record. Mr. Kelly, said to me recently
'Ther is no hope for Bryan. He Is Im
possible. The voters have simply got Into
the habit of voting, against him, and I do
not see that his position Is one' bit stronger

storm without running the risk of mal-de-mer.
Written for the young folks, they

typography targe and attractive and th
Illustrations numerous and effective. Pub

The McClure company has Issued an
autograph edition of "Hoyle's Games," re
vised, enlarged and brought up to date.
For more than a hundred and forty years
Hoyle's Games have been the standard
authority. In bringing out fhls new edi
tion It has been the aim of the pub
lishers to avoid the common error of
making It too much like a text-book. The
principal uses for this volume are to look
up forgotten rules and to settle the dis
putes which arl?e at the' card table. No
atiempt la made at suggestions for good
play, aa it is merely a book of . reference

matlc. Her own remarkable romance and
her experiences among English people of
rahk are Intensely Interesting. Mrs, Bur.
nett has penetrated to the heart f social
conditions in both England and America
Tho momentous theme and the literary
quality of the book make it the novel of
the year. It Is a book to arouse rigorous
discussion. The frontispiece in color Is by-
Clarence Underwood. Published by Fred

"On the Trail of the Arabs," hy Herbert
Strang, is a story of adventure and heroic

It Is a picture of the last years of Arkb
domination, when the remnants of Tlppu
Tib's hordes. In remote fastnesses, pursued
the evil traffic of human slavery. "It la
an attempt," says, the author, "to show
the native races at their best, as they
may be and are when oppression Is replaced
by aympathy." Published by the' Bobb'
Merrill company, Indianapolis.

Though the January Issue of the Century-
is 'a "fiction number," the- chief
point of Interest la th first two repro

cating the subtlety, range and beauty of

In this number, too, F. Marlon Ciawford tent
the true story of Beatrice Cencl "a great
lotfe drama, less noble, but ever ' more
human, and surely far more awful, than
the "Bride of Lammermoor.' " The topics
of the times seem especially .timely. "A
.'Demonstration' by Governor Hughes"
.commending the state executive's recent
utterances on civil service reform; "A
Good Working .Hypothesis," the doctrine
that things are really getting better;
'Mars, a New Phase;" "Hard Times and
Good Books." Mabel Earle of Omaha con
tributes to the January Century a poem,
"From a Nativity Play,"whlch may have
special Interest for som of the readers.
' It should be a Happy New Yer surely
for every youngster fortunate enough to
have the January St' Nicholas, for a
richer, fuller number of that chlldre-n'a
magazine was never Issued. It is almost
a White House number Chester M. Clark
telling In much interesting detail of "A
Day's Work with the President," all the
routine of one of President Roosevelt's
busy dayfe. while Jacob Rlis relates the
story of "Clippers,' the White House Cat."
This flrst-of'the-year number brings the
beginnings of three tempting new serials,
Ralph Henry Barbour's "Harry's island,"
continuing the tan and adventures of
tho. old favorites . of- "Tom, Dick and
Harriet;" Agnes- McClelland Daulton's
"The Gentle Interference of Bab," open
ing, ItfttfJiVVj and Carolyn Wells' and
Harrison Cadx's funny, very funny, "The
Happy Chaps." - Besides all the- Jingles

e vera! exceptionally bright short stories,
more chapters of the fascinating "Three
Years Behind the Guns," General How

Indian chief Pascaul, and suggestions

In an article 'on "Outdoor 'Sleeping and
Living" in Country Life ia, America . for
January, Dr. Ttvumaa MaAdam -aaya "It
costs about $50 to screen! a veranda large
enough f br a family of four. 'The cost of
an outfit for, winter sleeping In cold coun
tries Is about-$30 to $60, Including cot and
mattress, but If It saves you $200 tn doctor
bills and adds Immeasurably to your happi
ness, you cannot anora to oq without u.
The main item la th three down comfort
ers, which give a maximum of warmth
with a minimum of weight, so that th
limb never feel oppressed. Then you need
woolen blanket the width of your bed
and twice Its length, because thla is to
enclose . ,he, 'comforters and protect tha
feet from exposure."
The question uppermost In almost every
one' mind during the last few weeks has
been tha causes and results of the extra
ordinary financial stringency through
whloh this country, and Wall street in
particular, has just been passing. A very
clear. and sound view of this vexed situ
ation is given In the January number' of
The World's Work. The article la 'Th
