COGGIN's PITIFUL STORY.

He Dared Not Resist the Order of the
Musicians Union.
The testimony of Isaac Coggin, Band
master of the Second Artillery, before the
court-martial in San Francisco was splen-
did illustration of the oppression ofthe Musi-
clans Union. He practically acknowledged
his guilt and then threw himself upon the
mercy of the Court, his excuse being that
he would be ruined if be performed his
duty and disobeyed the order of the Union.
He said
My reasons for not parading on the
Fourth were these: | have a little house
and lot on which there is a mortgage of
$1,000, which if not paid will forfeit my
property. My sight is threatened. This
business caused me q great deal of uneasi-
ness. | went TO the Fourth of July Com
mittee and showed them that | was like a
man crushed between two forces. | do not
reme mber that Colonel Macdonald said to
me that | must positively turn out. I
went to him as friend and he told me 10
do my best. There was one thing had to
consider more terrible than boycott, and
that was that | had gone back on union
principles and | would not be able to get
anyone to play for me. Ny band would
break up, and in my old age l would have
to start all over again. | saw all nv work
vanishing, and l thought it was due to my
invalid wife not TO parade. l would have
turned out with musket if they would let

lic-spirited and responsible citizens, whose
interests are common with those of the
city. Let the Trustees take care that they
do rot, in giving ear to the protests of the
subscribers to the new line, place them
selves in the attitude of attorneys for them,
and that they do not lay themselves open
to the charge of permitting municipal
machinery to be used to further positions
that have standing only in the Courts in
actions for breach of contract.
Suppose the company is forbidden to use
horse power, and that in consequence the
line is abandoned, the promoters forced
into insolvency, or that the road is oper-
ated only at widely separated periods, and
then with but single car-what gain will
have been made? Who will be benefited !?

ST. MARY'S ACADEMY.
A Catholic College Where Pupils of A
Denominations are Tauebt

A Catholic College Where Pupils of All
Denominations are Taught.
Our neighboring town of Woodland DOS
sesses, among its other worthy institutions,
the academy above mentioned-an institu-
ton conducted by the Sisters of the HOLY
Cross, an order noted in the Eastern States
for their success in the education and prep
aration of young ladies for the responsible
ties and duties of life and society. The
headquarters, so to speak, of this Order, is
at Notre Dame, Ind, with numerous
branches, throughout the country. The
one at Woodland is the only one under the
auspices of the Sisters of the Holy Cross
IN California, and was established three
years ago.
The seminary is religious in character.
and the inculcation of the PRINCIPLES of
Christianity and morality is made pri-
mary object the religious exercises being
according to the ritual of the Roman Cath.
olic Church. The curriculum includes all
branches of study, and children of all ages
are admitted, including boys under twelve
years, as day scholars.
The Academy is conducted on the broad
and liberal principles of modern Chris
tianity; and though thoroughly Catholic
one, the religious opinions of pupils are re-
spected, and no attempt at proselyteism is
made. Young ladies of all denominations
are admitted to the Academy, and attend
ance at Divine worship in the college
chapel, or at classes of religious instruction,
is not required of non-Catholics. Special
classes are formed for the instruction of
children Of Catholic parents in Christian
doctrines and the duties of their religion.
The aim of the Order of the Sisters of the
Holy Cross is TO so educate young ladies
that on entering the world they may be NOR
ally and intellectually equipped to take
their places in any station of life to which
they may be called, and the system adopted
at st. Mary's Academy is identical with
that Of the mother house at Notre Dame,
Indiana, and the result of long years of ex-
perience.
Photography, type-writing, painting,
drawing, sketching, music, etc, form part
of the especial studies that pupils may take,
if desired.

In its decision in the Grand Trunk
Railway case, where the road contended
that the Interstate Commerce Commission
had nothing to do with rates on goods
shipped from the United States to points
in Canada, the Commi sion said that to
admit that would divert. from American
to foreign lines most of. the export aud
import business with Canada. That is
true, but how much more dangerous to
American transcontinental lines of rail-
way is the contention of the New England
end of the country, that it has the right to
ship from an American pornt to an Amer
lean place over the CanahanIPacifc Rail
way, without interference. With such a
competitor as the Canadian Pacific, enor-
mously subsidized, non tax-paying and
backed by the Government of Great
Britain, no American road can possibly
compete for through traffic. The result
must be, if such competitor is conserved,
to saddle upon local traffic the cost of
maintaining the trans-continental roads.
which in effect would mike the people of
the United States pay leavy tax for the
support of a foreign railway.

THE THREAT OF THE CANADIAN ROAD.

President Smith, of the New York
Chamber of Commerce, says that last year
the firm of which he is member shipped
to the Orient by the Canadian Pacific
Railway over 100000 worth of cotton
goods. He estimates that of such oriental
traffic the Canadian line last year carried
over ninety per cent. This is startling
fact, and is alone sufficient to occasion
among thoughtful Americans a great deal
of uneasiness. The question is whether
Americans will consent to see their own
roads robbed of what is their legitimate
business in order to foster the aggressive
ness of a foreign corporation that has
aptly been termed "The British Govern
ment on wheels" The Albany Journal of
a recent date, considering the threat that
this Canadian road is to American trans
portation interests, says:
This powerful Canadian rival of our Pacific
lines is constantly increasing its grasping power
and finding new feeders for its treasury. Its
gross earnings last year. the second year of its
OpeidIiOH VI inc NuOle llue, were Slo,l O,0OO
and its operating expenses 1884 760; and the
result shows surplus over fixed interest charges
of 1926 423. The road is in fair way to increase
this from both financial columns; first, by in
creaSing its business from the States and sec
Ondly, by the Act obtained by the company
at the last session of Parliament, providing for
the conversion of existing obligations into per-
petual debenture per cent. stock, by which Il
good annual reduction of interest will be eff
fected. OF the original Government grant of
25,0D0,0OO acres, the company holds nearly
100000 still unsold, and has acquired through
the purchase of the Manitoba Southern road
100000 acres more, valued at 81 "a per acre
and on which there is lien due the Govern
ment of Manitoba of SSS4, S73. The question of
land sales will largely effect the value of the
road; ana the estimate OF the Montreal Gazette
which is of course, a friend to the Canadian
Pacific, is thatthese lands are worth no less than
s55,OOO,OGO. 1t is worth while to notice the local
feeders that this road is acquiring in order to
secure a maintenance from our Territory. The
connections at the Sault Ste. Marie, or 800"
with the roads from Minneapolis and Duluth
were completed this spring; and the completion
of the Short Line to the maritime provinces
will be effected within two months. Aside
from the Detroit extension. "a branch is bnild-
ing in British Columbia, the link in a chain of
railway connections along the Pacific Coast
from the Canadian Pacific TO the Gulf of Cali
fornia." President Van Horne in his recent
report says that few connections are now neceS-
sary to complete the system, the most i'm
portant being between Toronto and Hamilton
Hamilton and Niagara Falls. and Hamilton and
Woodstock. All these lines are now in comtem-
plation and have received subsidies from the
Dominion Parliament" Also, there is in con-
temptation the construction of a line to Dundee
to connect with the Rome Watertown and Og-
densburg Railway.

A WIFE in Maryland consented to sur
gical operation for cancer and died, as a
result. Her husband brought suit for her
loss on the ground that he did not consent
to the operation ard that such consent was
necessary. The Court of Appeals holds that
the consent of the patient only was re-
CURED; by which we are given to under
stand that in this day and age of enlight-
eminent the claim of the husband to con-
troll the wife in the medical treatment of
her body, cannot be enforced as it once
could, when the wife was little more
than a chattel OF the husband.

Mr.. WILLIAM WALTER PHELPS has done
himself credit and proved that he is man
of sense in refusing to be banqueted and
honored on account of his services as a
Samoan Commissioner, unless his col
leagues in the Commission are included,
and as they are still in Europe, and there
fore cannot be entertained, he declines to
permit any soft soap to be poured over
him. Even if the Commissioners were all
here it would be of doubtful propriety to
make public demonstration over them.
They have done their duty, presumably,
and their reward is in the sense of that
performance, and the acknowledgment
Congress will make, should it approve
their action, and, until it does, it is well
to make no public demonstration.
