The most useless and painful feeling is the
one of regret. Repent of lost opportunities
we must, and get pardon we may, but re-

ture work. If a sea Captain who once had
charge of a White Star steamer across the
Atlantic Ocean, one foggy night runs on
rock of Newfoundland, and passengers and

of small boatup the North River, and say:

OPPORTUNITIES, may be small as rat terrier

was set in an ornamented sepulcher on

cold brow, and scepter in his stiff hand,
but that gave him no dominion in the next
world. One of the most intensely interest

entering upOn'such an important engage
ment on what is considered an unlucky
day. but Mr.. Carlisle was born on a Fri

a Friday; he started 10 return from Eu-

all these coincidents he will qualify as
senator on Friday.
The Democrats of the senate are bestow-
ing an extraordinary compliment upon
him. He will be made a member OF the
finance committee, the committee on
territories and the committee on woman
suffrage. This Is the first time in the
history Of the senate that a new senator
has been placed on the finance com

a very conservative body. and no matter

BISMARCK'S POSITION.

Bismarck is in a decidedly delicate and
particularly unenviable position just now.
If the nation prospers the young en-
peror will get all the credit for it, and he
will be held up to the admiration of the
world as model ruler.
! Il, on the other hand. matters should
not go along as smoothly as they might;
in short, if Germany should become in
volved in serious difficulty with France
the blame for this unfortunate state of
! affairs would, in all probability, be at
tached to Bismarck.
SO that in either event he has nothing
to gain, with the possibility on one hand
of much to lose: and the risk is increased
by the evident determination of the EN-
per0r William to have peace at all hazards
even if he has to fight for it. In fact
Germany has added two new army corps
TO her standing force since January. She
now has a grand total in officers of 314
general officers: 293 coionels; 307 Heuten-
ant-colonels and l .256 majors; a grand
total Of 2,110 officers. to say nothing of
the greater number Of men which the
presence of SO many officers implies.
While Bismarck was in the ascend
ency, coterie Of time servers, infinitely
small though they were and are in com
parison, conspired against him, if such
pupy efforts can be designated as a con-
spiracy, and of course fiattered them
selves that they secured his dispIace-
ment. These men now imagine that
they have found a method of injuring
Bismarck, and they consequently con-
tinue as unrelentinglyt to attack him now
as when he was chancellor.
One member of this anti-BismarCk
crowd, while the debate on the army bill
was progressing in the reichstag. asserted
that the nation would soon be ruined by
the heavy burden of militarism," that
no nation would be able to long endure
the burden imposed by the maintenance
of so large an army and so colossal an
establishment.
These statements have been frequently
made before. and therefore are not at all
startling, but this member of the reich
stag went a step farther and blamed
Bismarck for it all. He practically ac-
cused him of having involved the coun-
try in war for the sole purpose of dem
onsrating to an admiring public how
well he could handle such things.
And this genius went on still further
and said, as the Brooklyn Standard
Union puts it, that Bismarck ''could have
prevented the late Russo-Turkish war if
he had chosen. But instead he let it go
On until the car had almost realized the
traditional Russian ambition to possess
Constantinople and the Bosphorus. This
is perhaps ali true. But possibly Just at
that time Bismarck thought a little
damper on English ambition and little
rebuff TO the English pride advisable. So
he allowed Russia to administer them. |
That was cheaper and pleasanter for |
Germany than to directly do the job her
self. If industrial depression, labor |
troubles or financial disorders come TO |
Germany within any reasonable time. /
Bismarck viii likely be held responsible |
for them all -

We do not advise the government own
ership of railways, any more than we
would government ownership of national
banks. But railways are none the less
public corporations that have been
granted great and peculiar privileges
and advantages in the name of the pub
he, and of the people, and they should
be held strictly accountable for any abuse
Of the trust or for any burdens put upon
the people by them. The government
sends its examiners into all national
banks, who are empowered to inspect
every holding, security and transaction,
simply for the protection of the public.
Why not examiners or inspectors for
railway corporations, which the public
are forced to patronize in stronger sense
than they are to patronize a bank, with
power somewhere, after such examina-
ton to fix transportation charges. As
railways are granted and protected
in the name of the public they should be
just as annenable to the public as a ma
tional bank or as any other public corpo-
ration. But having determined their ac-
tual cost in good, lawful money of the
realm, then allow them liberal operating
expenses, plump salaries for their neces-
sary officials and a round dividend on
their dollar-for-dollar stock, and then
cut the transportation charge to a scale
or scales which would not more than re-
turn the aggregate of such expenses, sal
aries and dividends, after leaving an
equitable margin for disasters and wrecks
to be determined by the statistics of old
lines.
