The New York Times advises Con.
gress TO be cautious and conserv-
ative" in its interstate commerce leg
islaIion. The kind of caution and con
serva,ism that the railroad interests
want is indefinite postponement. The
caution and conservatism for which
the people ask is immediate action.
Congress has yielded long and often
enough to the clamor for delay and
cannot mistake Its duty by passing the
pending bill, even If it is not perfect in
all its details.

happens only once n year and on a day
when the liverymcn feel al liberty to
make their charges correspond with
the prodigal hilariIies of the season.
1t Is true the Justices might pay for
their ride out of their own pockets and
thus disarm all criticism, but inasmuch
as they make the call as members OF
the United States Supreme Court and
not as individuals, by virtue Of n Gus
tom which Is tautamount to statute,
II is quite in order that the Government
allow any reasonable sum for the cost
Of the performance.
Therefore we trust that the Judges
will still be permitted to make their
call at the Executive Mansion in the
usual way and at Uncle Sans expense.
In view Of the fact, however, that
this is an administration of retrench-
ment and reform, IL would be in ac-
cordancc with the fitness of things for
the Marshal of the Court, who has
direction Of the arrangements, TO nego-
tiate for lower terms. Perhaps the
better way would be to advertise for
proposals. 1t is not impossible that
some patriotic liveryman, for the sake
of vindicating the Government and
easing the burdens of tax.ridden
people, might be found to take the job
at two dollars and half head.

THE impression is quite prevalent
that many officers are opposing Secre.
tary Whitney's bill for the reorganlza
tion Of the navy, much to the Secre.
tary's annoyance. Mr.. Whitney does
not believe that the duties of naval
officer and the business of Congress
sional lobbyist can be adyantagcously
combined, or are at all compatible with
the dignity Of the service, in which he
is clearly right II Is also understood
that any subordinate officials of the de-
partment who undertake to influence
legislation will be subjected to dis
ciplnc. The Secretary is evidently de-
termined TO be master OF his own
quarterback, and the best sentiment of
the country will support him in this
position.

Az dip MINE i Observation-Disclosures TWEEN
~ years ago there was quite mining ex-
element at Chrysopolis. ten miles north of
independence station. Some rich gold rock
was found, a mill was built, aud a good
deal of work was done in mining. Those
were times of inflated ideas, miners ex-
pected to make fortunes in a few weeks, or
months at farthest, and unless they got large
gains Immediately, their claims were aban-
doned. Rock that would not pay at least
a hundred and fifty dollars a ton was re-
garded as worthless. These We're the ideas
of the men who opeaed the Orc Elmo mine
at Chrysopolis; they were disappointed bv
not making fortunes at once, got disgilsted
and quit and the mine was abandoned
Some time ago the property came into pos
session OF Harris Il Rhine of Independence
About three weeks ago. an arrangement
was made with two miners named Wilcox
and Manton, by which they were to reopen
the mine and prospect it. Very liberal
terms and all necessary financial aid was
given them, and already they have opened
up what has every appearance of being a
large and valuable ore body. The ledge is
full six feet wide. and at least twelve inches
of this is quite high grade ore More mer
have been put to work in the mine. which
has been renamed the " Hope" ore is be-
ing got out rapidly. and the Maxim mill
will bes towerk upon il s@on.-TInyo In
