MI. bacon OF milwaukee maintained that the
remedy for delays in transporting goods lay in
the hands Of the shippers. The law gave them
the right to collect from the railroad payment
for the losses incurred by delays He thought
that If shippers presented their claims and in
forced them that it would accomplish more than
legislation.
Mr.. Weisinger of Louisville spoke of the res.
oiution as being fair to the railroads and also

the railroads while he said that
he favored the resolution. He did
NOT want the governor to misrepresent
himself. This remark brought Gov. Stannar,l
10 his feet who reiterated his former statement
that the railroads had been doing their best 10
handle the business. The difficulty was lack
OF facilities 1t was right that the railroads
should make the shippers unload the cars
promptly as they were needed in die
commerce OF the country. OF course If no
charge was made by the railroads it would be
cheaper to keep goods in the cars than to store
them. Shippers had been influenced by selfish
motives III this matter, and he was Glad

After further discussion the resolut;ons

Chilean minister ut Washington. 1t is said
here that his last message, received Friday as
sured his government that the affair was COM
ing to u speedy conclusion. He has all along
led President Montt and his advisers to believe
that Mr.. Blaine was DESTROYS of submitting the
whole affair to arbitration. Some here think
that Pedro Montt has been misled by Richard
Trumbuli, Julio Foster and their democratic
friends.
The excuse made for the demand for the re-.
call of Minister Egan is that it was understood
that he had cabled Secretary Blaine that tine
Chilean government: had granted safe conducts
to the refugees and then recalled them. 1t is
said that he never made such a statement but
that he did say that the government had given
tacit consent to their removal, and this cannot
be denied.
THE INVESTIGATION TO END ON FRIDAY
Judge of Crimes Foster has been ordered by
the minister OF justice to proceed ut once to
conclude the trial of the men in the Baltimore
case and 10 drop everything else. Judge Eos
ter promises that he will finish the cases by
Friday.

active power exists, common interest
must be allied to that power, and for
this reason it should be accepted as it is.
1t is for this reason and with this intent
that we told the French Catholics, to ac-
cept the Republic, that is to say, the con-
stituted power in your midst, respect it,
be submissive to it as representing the
power come from God.'' But the Pope
wishes it distinctly understood that
while he urges the acceptance of the con
stituted authority, it does not follow that
the legislation of that authority should
be accepted when it conflicts with the
tenets of the church.
The Pope's attitude towards the French
Republic has created considerable in
terest and discussion throughout the
civilized world. The tendencies of the
Catholic church and its Popes have been
supposed to be monarchical always; and
undoubtedly this supposition has been
correct. But the example of the United
States, where Catholicism is unnrece-
dentedly fourishing under republican
institutions, cannot but have convinced
the Vatican that it is time for old ideas
to pass away with the rise of new order
of things.

London is still the best place in the

There is no reason why Maine should not
share in the scramble as well as the
South and West -. C.
Properly presented and backed by re-
liable data it seems impossible that suf-
ficient interest should not be aroused
there, to set on its feet every mine now
worked in the State of Maine, and to de-
velop other lodes already located.
If English inanciers were to take
the initiative in this direction it is safe
to say that their American confreres
would not be long behind them.
For one reason or another there is
marked hesitation on the part of capital
lists at the present time to invest in Maine
enterprises. This prejudice does not ex-
tend to England and anything that we
had to offer in the worlds market, would
be judged there on its own merits.

The Louisiana lottery is most persis-
tent sinner. Two leading New Orleans
papers, the Times-Democrat and Plea
yune, continue to publish lottery adver-
tisements which are circulated in special
editions. These editions are kept out of
the United States mails, being circulated
by express companies. 1t is also thought
that the company manage to use the
mails by forwarding copies of these pa
pers to their agents who mail them in
distant cities. An agent in one place
might mail them one week, and another
agent in far distant city the next. De-

Pope Leo XIII. has contributed to the
literature on the subject of church and
state an interesting encyclical relating
to the relations of the Papacy and the
French Republic. 1t was some time ago
that the Pope enjoined the Catholics of
France to accept the Republic as the es-
tablished government. Some of them
continued to demur and Pope Leo has
issued second encyclical, the text of
which is brought by the London papers.
He enlarges upon the necessity of citizens
supporting de facto governments, the
common veal of society making such
support pre-eminent over any other in
terests. The eneyclical continues: "Now
from this necessity of insuring the good
of all springs, as from its own immedi-
ate origin, the necessity of civil power
which turned ever toward the supreme
end, thither guides, wisely and continu-
ally, the varied wills of the subjects

A leading financial journal, the Finan-
cial Chronicle, has come out in favor of
repeating the discriminating tax on State
bank circulation. This tax, it will be
remembered, was imposed upon State
bank circulation at the time the national
bank system was established. 1t had the
effecto destroying the old State bank
system. Of course by advocating the
repeal of this tax now the Financial
Chronicle contemplates the return of the
old State banks to place in our fnan-
cial system. The Chronicles reasons
for its attitude are that the currency of
the United States, as things are now 60
ing, will be all government currency in
the course of a few years. The national
bank notes, being secured by govern
ment bonds, cannot last much, if any,
longer than the year 1907, when the
per cent. bonds mature, and in the mean
time there is gradual extinction going
on. The project of creating permanent
national debt in order to furnish basis
for bank notes is considered impossible
politically and inadmissible financially,
since it conteinplates a perpetual bur-
den on the taxpayers. Three courses
will be open after 1907. Some new secu-
rity may be devised for the national
banks; government notes, greenbacks
and silver and gold certificates may be
relied upon wholly; or State banks may
be re-established. Considering that the
State banks have left regulations of be-
ing intoleiable nuisances, their re-estab-
lishment would SEINE to be the least
likely of the three devices.

A Steady Leakage

A Steady Leakage
out of the State has been going on, which
is scarcely made good by immigration
from other States, the Provinces and the
native birth rate.
Maine is a noble State, and it's natural
resources even now are but imperfectly
known to its own inhabitants. The very
same elements which attract the capital
and energy and brains Of the country to
distant points and in it's back wash sucks
along certain proportion of our young
blood, are here at our very doors.
The fields, the woods, the quarries, the
mines, the water power, the fisheries,
are as capable Of profitable development
as any of the resources of the rich and
and populous States of the West.
Two factors are absolutely essential
for this DEVELOPMENT. One is capital,
and the other is men.
We need more people. But we are not
the first State to feel this need, though
we are one of the last to make any active
effort to get what we want.
Canada for years has had an immigra-
ton Bureau, with headquarters in Lon
don, and various minor Offices at differ
emit points of the Dominion. During one
year-the second after the Inauguration
of the system-it was estimated that
fully 1900 souls crossed the water as
the result of their efforts. The writer
has passed their London Office many
times-it is on the Strand, near Ludgate
Circus-and never failed to find little
crowd of gaping men eagerly reading
the placards and posters in the windows
which set forth in glowing colors the
virtues of Manitoba and the great North
west.
Several of the Western States have at
one time OF another sent agents to Eu-
rope to encourage immigration thither.
Minnesota has spent as much as $4,000
a year on this object, perhaps more.
A writer in the Boston Herald last
autumn, apropos of the large number
of
Deserted Farms
in New England urged that the several
state authorities send agents to London
with power to negotiate for the sale OF
these farms when desired. He said that
he knew from experience that large num-
bers of English farmers would like to
better their condition. The times were
bad and the taxes heavy. They were
willing to emigrate. But they shrank
from the standardization of the great
colonizing grounds of the world. They
would be at home in New England.
There were no facilities there, however,
for learning anything authoritatively
about this part of the country.
A Bureau or State Intelligence office
which could furnish such data as was de-
sired, would be of great assistance in
overcoming this defect.
But beside men, we need capital to de-

OUR STATE AND CITY.
How Shall We Increase their Business and
Prosperity-A Former Portlander Advo-
Gates an Effort to Get English Farmers
to Settle on Our Farms.

To the Editor Of the Press:
was much interested some weeks ago
in reading in your columns an account of
the speeches made at the dinner of the
Portland Board of Trade. The sugges-
tons made by the various speakers as to
the means to be employed to increase the
commercial prosperity of the city struck
me as admirable.
Among the reasons given for the nom
increase of trade relations was one which
I cannot but think is the keynote of the
whole situation. It is the sparse popula-
ton of the State at large. AS this i'm
proves the commercial relations of Port
land would also improve, and it would
appear to be the part of simple self pres
ervation to do all that common sense and
organized effort can suggest to accom-
plish this result.
With your kind permission should
Like to call the attention of your readers
to the subject with the hope of arousing
some general interest, and it may be Of
provoking some expressions of opinion.
AS long ago as 1870, the State appointed
commission to consider the condition
of the Public Lands of Maine, and how
best they could be thrown open to settle
ment. The Commission made their re-
port, and it is very interesting reading.
They strongly advocated the encourage
ment of European immigration, and for
reasons best known to themselves recon-
mended Scandinavia as the country from
which this immigration was to be en-
couraged.
1t is perhaps too soon to draw any con-
illusions as to the success OF the venture,
but in the twenty odd years during which
it has been in operation there has been
no such trend of immigration to our
shores as the report of the Commissions
ers would lead one to expect, and in con-
sequence no great increase of material
prosperity to the State at large, OF to
Portland in particular.
The Commission, believe, were dis
charged, and the government since then
has rested from its labors. Meanwhile
