A Commendable Example.

There can be no doubt that the
failure to punish defaulters and
other perpetrators of criminal acts
as they deserve tends to encourage
mawkish sympathy with crime and
to stimulate into activity the vicious
inclinations of the depraved. In
recent years comparatively few
plunderers and defaulters guilty of
colossal robberies have been adj
equately punished; for the most
part they have been permitted to
compromise with their victims and
to escape legal penalties upon re-
funding a portion of their illgotten
spoils. The newspapers have re-
Gently recorded case of another
sort which is we'll worthy of atten-
ton. An officer Of a financial in
stitution in Kansas City disappeared
some ten months ago with $4,000
of the securities of the corporation.
His honesty had been guaranteed by
the American Surety Company, of
Chicago, which was, of course, COM
PEELED to pay the loss. 1t determin-
ed, as a matter of principle, to
bring the offender to justice at what
ever cost. A detective was instruct
ed to pursue the absconding default
ter to the worlds end if necessary
to effect his capture. Obedient to
his instructions, the officer chased
the fugitive to this port, then across
the ocean to England, France, Swe-
den, Norway, and many of the con-
tinental cities, finally securing him
on pier at Liverpool, whittier he
had returned from his wanderings
with scarcely penny in his pocket.
He was at once brought home, and
will be tried for his offense and un-
doubtedly convicted and punished.
The American Surety Company is
entitled to the thanks of the public
for thus making an example of a
criminal who had violated the con-
fidence of his employers. 1t has
done real service to the communi-
ty at large; and it is to be hoped
that other institutions suffering in a
like manner will be equally quick
to vindicate the authority of the law
against deliberate offenders. If the
principle carried out in this case
could be made universal we would
hear of far fewer breaches of trust,
and our financial institutions would
not be exposed, as they now too fire.
quently are, to the temptation to
condone offenses upon the basis of
mere restitution of stolen goods

The vote of California cast at the
general election has been officially
announced by the secretary OF the
State. For presidential electors.
Thomas B. Baird received the larg-
est vote cast for any Republican
candidate, 11S,027, and was the only
Republican elected. Eight Demo-
crat electors were chosen, r. A..
Long, with 1874, receiving the
highest vote. The full strength of
the Peoples party in the State was
25,31I, of the Prohibitionists, 5000.
The proposition to elect United
States senators by the direct vote of
the people was favored by 1888
voters while 113,442 cast their bal
lots against it. For educational
qualifications for voters 151 1920
were cast in favor of the PROPOSE
ton and 41,059 against it. The
Democrats elected their candidates
in the First, Second, Fourth and
Sixth congressional districts and the
Republicans in the Third, Fifth
and Seventh.

Good Roads.

In view of the discussion as to
road reform, it is IN interesting
statement which is made in the last
number of Engineering, that 90 per
cent of the roads of the country
could be equipped with tracks and
wires for the use Of electric motors
at a cost not to exceed $4,000 mile.
The plan suggested by the writer is
to divide the country up into dis
tricts of ten miles square with a
central power station to each dis
trict. The cost he estimates would
amount to IS an acre, with an an
nual interest charge of thirty cents
an acre. For this outlay the farm
er would find himself with easy and
rapid communication with the rail-
road centers and the markets, beside
having all the added comfort and
enjoyment which increased facilities
for the interchange Of visit would
bring.
1t is a pleasant thought that all
this might be brought about at a
cost comparatively so trihing; but
the scheme is somewhat visionary.
Unless the signs of the times are all
in fault the use Of stored electricity
will surercede the overhead wires
and central power stations contem-
plated by this plan long be-
fore it could be brought into
general use. The real practical
future for the farmer, we believe, is
in roads over which electric car
riages can be used without any wires
or track, the charging" to be done
at the nearest railroad center. AL
ready such carriages are in use ex-
perimentally on ordinary roads, the
chief requisite being broad tires.
Make our ordinary roads as good as
they should be and there will be no
difficulty in the way of using such
carriages for the regular daily traffic
of the country, not in the rural dis
tricts alone, but in the cities as
we'll. The realization of this will
not require one-tenth of the advance
in the next twenty-five years that
has been made in the past quarter
of a century, Free Press.

high prices by means of a combina-
ton agreement. No part of them
is needed, these two manufacturers
say, to restrain competition from
abroad when fair competition pre-
walls at home. They go further
and assert that with untaxed raw
materials they not only can sell
their goods in foreign markets in
competition with foreign goods,
but can beat the foreign manufact-
urer everywhere and take the mar
kets of the world for their own use.
All this should not be forgotten
when the new Congress revises the
tariff.-New York Times.

Wonders of Photography.

Electricity has been doing some
pretty work in the photographing
of drops of water, and Prof. G. Y.
Boys in recent lecture gave Illus
trations Of what had been accom-
plished. He first showed photo
graphs taken by the electric spark
of soap bubbles in the act of burst
ing and explained the process by
which it is possible to ascertain the
respective speed at which different
soap bubbles burst. One photo
graph showed an issue of liquid
from very small pipe, which to
the naked eye appeared to be per-
feet stream, but which, on an cleo
trio photograph being taken, was
resolved into beautiful and regu-
lar series of drops. In connection
with this Prof. Boys remarked that
the science of liquids and of the
forces involved in the phenomena
of the surface of liquids was one of
the most interesting branches of
physical science. The effect on a
fountain of playing or singing was
to change its appearance into one,
two or three apparently separate,
clean streams of liquid, but photo
graph taken as tuning fork was
struck demonstrated that the water
was dispersed in drops in perfect reg
ularity. A picture Of rifle bullet
passing through the air at the rate
Of 1000 feet second was also ex-
hibited. Prof. Boys, however, show
ed that if it were wished to investi-
gate what was really happening
when a rifle bullet was being pro-
jected through the air at the maxi
mum possible speed, it would be
necessary to have recourse to a
method of illumination infinitely
more rapid than the electric spark.
For this purpose a mirror of steel,
about the size of a twenty-five cent
piece is now used. 1t is so mount
ed as to revolve with ease without
getting hot at the enormous speed
of about 1000 times a second, and

The Future of the South.

The present condition of the
South is far from what it should be.
but its future is once more full of
hope. The vote of such Western
States as Illinois gives assurance
that the country has at last out
grown the sectionalism of 1860.
The West has voted the South more
time to settle its local questions.
As matter of course the future
of the South depends ultimately on
how this time is utilized, but in the
immediate future we have right
to expect such another era of pros
perity in the South as followed the
first election Of Mr.. Cleveland.
Confidence has already returned
throughout "the States lately in re-
bellion," and in spite of the low
prices of their agricultural staples
the Southern people are full of
hope. They now feel secure in the
possession of their homes and prop
erty, and they are overjoyed at the
assurances Of peace given them by
the crushing vote of the people in
their reputation Of the governing
Radical faction of the Republican
party.
As the threat Of another recon-
struction Is not at present so for
midable to Southern Investors as it
was lately, investment will natural
ly increase and the development of
the resources Of the South will be
resumed and continued with the
confidence which prevailed from
1884 to 1883.
The Western revolution of 1890
and 1892 is equaled in far-reaching
political Importance by nothing
which has happened in America
since the Civil War began. 1t
means that the Southern States are
now fully readmitted to the Union,
and that they are free to work out
their own future. A reaction is
probable enough, but it will be only
temporary, and it is safe enough to
say that the Southern States are now
back in the Union on a basis of full
equality. Until negro suffrage is
by State laws SO adjusted that it
will neither threaten the prosperity
of the community, deprive the ne
groes of their rights, nor give
grounds for the charge of unequal
representation in Congress, attacks
will be made by Radicals on the
South as a section became of unfor-
tunate conditions in few districts,
but the Southern people have the
assurance that they are free now to
"go ahead and attend to their own
business" without the fear that Mr..
Benjamin Harrison will be able to
undo their work and punish them
as rebels and traitors.--St Louis Re-
public.

in his paper, the Louisville Courier
Journal. Mr.. Cleveland, he writes,
will enter upon his second term Of
Office under circumstances and con-
ditions which is not superlative to
call extraordinary.
He has broken all known records.
He has baffied every prediction.
He is the first presidential candi-
date nominated by national con-
vention over the protest of united
delegation from his own state. He
is the first defeated occupant of the
White House TO be returned to it.
That his nomination, against the
formidable opposition in New York
and elsewhere, was perilous adj
venture, he himself foresaw and
foreshadowed; and his election in
this despite and by an overwhelm-
ing popular majority, even where he
seemed weakest, contributes to po-
litical history a startling example of
the saying, attributed to Talleyrand,
that 1T is the impossible which
happens"
The antecedent career of Mr..
Cleveland was itself exceptional.
That, within a period of less than
five years, the Sheriff of county
should be hurried from Sheriff to
Mayor, from Mayor to Governor
and from Governor to President,
seemed a fairy tale. 81 sometimes
wake in the middle of the night"
said the hero of this fairy tale a few
weeks after he had entered the
White House, land am unable to
realize that l am here; it appears to
me all dream" And yet the Sc
quel is even more surprising.
Under our peculiar system of
government, where all things are
open to all men, the sudden rise
from obscurity and the quick pass
age to fame and fortune Of the
humblest citizen is not much to be
wondered at, except in degree;
though in such matters it is as easy
for the speculative mind to deal in
hundreds as in units. But the loss
Of place and power is rarely, if ever,
followed by their recovery; and the
return of Mr.. Cleveland at the head
Of an advancing and triumphant
column Of irresistible Democrats,
after the defeat Of 1883 and an in
term of four years, marked by
nothing revolutionary or out of the
common, has no parallel in Ameri-
can annals, if in any annals.
And so, good fortune attend you,
Mr.. President, and those whom you
may call to your side; good fortune
as Democrats, good fortune as
Americans; a wet sheet and flow
ing sea, and q wind that follows
fast as we sail out of the Straits OF
Tarifa, infested by pirates, to the
ocean highway which is to lead us
back to the only true American
policy, the greatest good to the
greatest number, attainable solely
through the guarantee Of the rights
of all, exclusive privileges to none!

They Need No Tariff.

The manufacturers Of Hint-glas'
bottles have closed their factorie,
for two weeks, and an officer Of tn,

this action was taken because o.
their fear of an impending reduc
ton of the tariff duties on such
bottles. But now come two prom.

aire, Ohio--and assert that this was
not the cause Of the temporary sus'
pension. 1.-THE reason" these manu-.
facturers say, "was over-production
Consumption is greater than evel
before, but production has grown
more rapidly"
At the same time these gentle
men agree in making the following
very interesting statement for the
enlightenment of the public con.
corning the tariff rs affecting their
industry:
"As to the tariff on flint bottles,
we would not find fault with it's en-.
tire removal. We are in no wise
affected by it one way or another
We make bottles for less than they
can be freighted to this country
from abroad, leaving out the cost
of foreign production. If we had
free raw material we could send
bottles across the water and take
the markets of the world"
1t should be borne in mind that
these are the words of the represen-
tatives of two large factories. They
say that the entire cost of their bot
ties is less than the freight charges
upon similar goods brought to this
country from Europe. That is to
say, the freight charges alone afford
protection greater than the entire
cost of production in their factories.
This being admitted, it naturally
follows that they need no addition
al protection in the tariff.
Now let us see what the tariff
duty is. Under the old law it was
40 per cent; under the Mckinley
act it was much higher, ranging
from cent pound to so cents a
gross. The Treasury reports show
that for the fiscal year 1901 the
new duty on bottles holding from
one gill to one pint was 0lt per
cent, and that the duty on smaller
bottles was 102 per cent. These
changes were made at the request
of certain manufacturers who told
the old story to the committee.
These duties were not required
for the protection Of the industry,
but to enable the manufacturers to
make prices high and to enact these
