But we did insist that the Colonel should have his day in court to prove his claim if he could, as a clear moral right which the Legisla- | ,| ture should make a legal right by giving him permission to sue the State and we are glad to see that a biil has been introduced for that pur- pose. The legislative atmosphere, oi cven the committee rcom atmosphere, iz not favorable to the calm, thor- ough indicial consideration of suel an issue. —_— tapoles, the di urnali Th reached ou sion by i bill, de- with imitation ned to do y !I\'ew York, told a story about Wash- | ingzton. ! “When Colonel Lee,” he said, “wa’s‘ cetting up a cubsciiption for a mon- ument to the Pawcr Potriae, he callel oL a certain rich man, “But the rich man refused to suh. scribe, ‘ “ *No, sir,’ gaid he, ‘I see no neces- sity for 2 monument to Washington.

Morgan died he was . worth two billions, two hundred and | forty-five million dollars. In this case, if Mr. Morgan could get in commun- ication with the Star, he might very properly paraphrase Mark Twain an! say that the report of his wvealth hal been greatly exaggerated. The high esl cetimate of the Morgan estate is $200,000,000, the lowest $75,000,- 600; the truth probably nearer the latter than the former. e () e If Secretary of State Bryan is for Col, J. D.
