Mabone and the Administration.

In Washington a deeper interest is felt
i'm the political situation in Virginia than
i'm any other Of the States which hold
elections next month. II Malone is sue
cessfuI this fall it will naturally be con
cluded that he can carry the State next
fall. He is now struggling against the
Democratic party and Republican ele-
ment of considerable strength. success
this wear will probably change the nos
tile Republicans to supporters, and
strengthen him for next years struggle.
= now fully unmasked. In
tho last national contest he proclaimed
himself a Democrat, and claimed TO be
the head of the genuine Democratic
party of the State. In the next
national contest he will not deny, pro-
badly. that he is a Republican. He
certainly will not deny that he intends to
give the electoral vote of his state to the
Republicans. Whether at the outset he
intended to make his way gradually into
the Republican party, or whether clrcUm-
stances gradually led him there, he alone
knows. 1t is certain that many of the
best Democrats of Virginia, who had
supported him warmly, deserted him
when ne made his famous bargain with
the administration. by which the admins
tratien got control OF the Senate
and Malone the Federal patronage
of Virginia. If Democrats follow
Malone any further they do so knowing
that he intends to lead them into the
Republican party. Our Washington cor
respondent says that it is understood
that the administration is tired of Malone,
and is not supporting him. That is the
impression that the administration would
undoubtedly like to have the country en-
terrain. because there is an element in
the Republican party that has never ap-
proved the Malone bargain. That the
administration and Malone are in
thorough accord there is little doubt.
The administration organ in Washington
admitted few days ago that the Repub-
lican party could not elect the next
President without Southern electoral
votes. 1t expressed the opinion, how
ever. that the Republicans were
pretty certain Of the electoral vote of
Virginia and North Carolina, and might
YET tlltit bl " GHt II iAAft anu iDA''i''-
confidence with which the administration
organ speaks of obtaining the electoral
vote of Virginia shows that the bargain
between the administration and Malone
has not been broken. 1t is being carried
out now as faithfully as it was when 1t
was first made. If the Republican party
should happen to be barely successful in
the next national contest with Mahone's
help, the Virginia senator would be not
only the boss of Virginia but of the adj
ministration. The contest that is going
on in Virginia. therefore, means great
deal more than appears on the surface.
Well informed Democrats and Republic
cans in Virginia predict that Malone will
be beaten next month. 1t is to be hoped
that the result will sustain their predic-
ton

ANOTHER CHARLIE ROSS.
singular Story from the Pine Tree


Portland Me- Special, Esd,
The Argus tomorrow morning Will pub
lish an article to the effect that there is at
present a young man in this city who
claims to be Charlie Ross. This party be-
lieyes himself to be about eighteen years
of age. In appearance he is tall and slim,
good looking face, dark brown hair, with
a slight tendency to curl, fine forehead,
looking eyes. He came here from Boston
four weeks ago. 1t is his intention to save
money enough to take him TO Philadelphia,
where he will call on Mr.. c. X. Ross. He
SAYS he remembers of living in a large
house, fbeing taken away by two men in a
carriage. and of being put aboard a vessel
and carried TO Winterport, Me-, where he
was kept in a dark room three or four
years. He was allowed, under close sur
Veillance. to leave the room occasionally.
He was not abused by his captors. There
We're other children i'm the house, but
these he rarely saw and was not permitted
TO play with. After remaining at Win
terpOrt for several years he was carried
ON a vessel TO Brazil. 1t was on this
voyage that he learned he was stolen by
Jesse James, the DavisOns and Pinkham.
After reaching Brazil he managed to
country, working his passage on a ship.
Since then he has been 10 sea, most of the
time serving as cook. He can read but
little, and does not write at all. He pro-
poses, in case he stays here the coming
winter, to go TO evening school and obtain
an education.

New York merchants who have in-
terests i'm China are seriously alarmed.
They fear that serious trouble is impend-
ing at Canton which may ultimately take
the shape of an uprising against, not only
the French, but all foreigners. Though
it may he true that "the NicerOy has
I0,00e troops in handtO check any popular
commotiOn." experience admonishes us
that troops in such cases are rarely used
until the populace has done its work, and
as an uprising at Canton no doubt means
an uprising at other points where there
ara Europeans or American merchants
and missionaries. the government is
strongly urged TO dispatch to those waters
whatever naval force we may have avail
able. 1t is understood that negotiation
between France and China is exhausted.
and that war can only be prevented by
arbitration. lfChina had Generals and a
practical knowledge of war, France would
lind it difficult to get the best OF her. She
can obtain soldiers in unlimited numbers,
and all the arms and munitions of war
that she wants.

MIR. Edward Atkinson, IN his testimony
before the senate Labor and Education
Committee. made some very remarkable
statements. He undertook TO show that
the Nanderbilts, Tom SCOTS and Gar
retts are public benetact0rs instead of
monopolists. The profit which Boston
baker makes on a loaf of bread IS far
greater. according TO Mr.. Atkinson, than
the cost of transporting the flour out OF
which the bread was made from Minnesota
or Dakota. ''Of the value of 100 barrels
of flour. $500 20 to the Dakota farmer, the
freight to Boston will be S197 30. the bar
rels $45, the grinding $50, commissions
and carriage $50, making the total cost
S6Sa 80 when it reaches Boston. Then the
baker takes the flour, adds 10 il 1910
worth of oven heat and yeast, and 5000 Of
labor: 50 that when the -four, making
from $500 to 5000 loaves, goes into the
shop for sale 1t has cost $l,O92 50-an
equivalent Of 81 cents a pound. For this
bread the baker or grocer gets : cents
a pound; that is to say, the baker and the
grocer in Boston get more than One-half
of the money paid for the bread made
from a barrel of flour: the farmer gets a
fifth; the railroads a tenth; the miller,
merchant and cooper One-fourteenth.'
1t is a fact worth noticing, however,
that the railroad men get rich while the
baker and the grocer seldom make more
than a moderate living.

All About the south.

There is no right-thinking man IN the
North ~ South who does not view with
qualification the evidences of southern
progress in industrial development and
wealth. as well as in mere population. 1t
is simply part of our marvellous national
growth. The whole can be no more or no
less than the sum of all the parts. The
greater, richer and stronger each state
and section of the Union is the greater,
richer and stronger will be the nation
itself.

The Principle of Tariff Reform

The Democratic party is steadiastly
committed to the principle of tariff re-
form. and could not with honor go back

cess next year are not based alone upon
the disafTection in the Republican ranks
and the desire of the people for change

The Mhile House Entravagancc


The New York Sun calls attention 10
the large amounts of money which are
annually expended in refurnishing the
White House, and very reasonably wants
to know what becomes of the old furnl-
ture. Since 1870 the sum of $272, 900 has
been appropriated for furniture for the
Executive mansion. This sum would
build two or three such houses as the
White House. and furnish them. Prior to
the war $4,000 were apprOpri-
atcd once in four years for
refurnishing the White House.
That was when there was some economy
observed in the expenditure Of the public
money. The reign of extravaganza began
about the time Grant became President,
and has continued ever since. The ap-
preparation annually made now for new
furniture is $4,000. The furniture is
hardly soiled in years wear. What be-
comes of it: Nobody seems to know. 1t
used to be sold and the proceeds account
ed for. The nation has become too great
and rich TO bother about few
thousands of dollars worth of old furni-
ture. 1t is related that when Garfield
came into the White House he could not
find enough cooking utensils and dishes
to give a dinner to a few friends. There
wasn't a napkin to be found. Did Hayes
carry all these things of: 1t is hardly
probable, and yet that is the only expland-
ton that suggests itself A new EXecu-
tive mansion will probably be built
i'm a few wears. Every. Congress
considers the matter. y finer
house viii require finer furniture.
Ii there should be rs much extravaganza
in furnishing the new mansion as there
has been in the old the surplus in the
Treasury would be considerably reduced.
There Is no use, however, in singing out
the White House. There is the same sort
of extravaganza in all departments Of the
government. The control Of the govern
ment must pass out of the hands OF the
Republican party before there can be any
genuine reform.

Joseph d. Weeks, the Secretary Of the
Western Iron Association, who has been
in Europe for a couple of months loading
himself with facts TO support him IN
advocating high protective duty on iron,
is back again in Pittsburg with gloomy
classes in the manufacturing districts of
Europe. The only bright thing that ap-
pears in his dark picture is the statement
that arbitration is rapidly being adopted
as means for settling labor troubles.
1t will be happy day in this country
when arbitration takes the place of
strikes.
