crat and he would surely receive the sup
port Of the democratic newspapers in his
state could such support be given without
sacrifice OF all the news. The vicksburg
Herald is democratic from first to last but
it hits Gov. Stone sQuarely between the
eyes when 1t prints In a conspicuous place
in its columns q statement to the effect
that "the White Caps grow holder and
more law violating as each day passes"
Quoting from a dispatch received from
what Is declared to be q responsible source.
the Herald says that a reign Of terror pre-
walls in twelve counties, which it names;
that several cotton gins have been burned
and scores Of peaceable citizens have been
whipped by the White Caps, who openly
declare that no gin will be permitted to re-
sumo operations until the price Of cotton
reaches 10 cents per pound. The Herald
says that 1t had Just received news Of the
burning Of two gins in Smith county; the
owners of the gins had disregarded the
notices posted and the White Caps prompt
ly applied the torch. AS a result, every
other gin in that section is idle. In Frank
lin county. it says. dozens of white and
negro farmers have been brutally beaten
and maltreated for selling cotton for less
than 10 cents a pound. Commenting on
this information the Herald says, had not
the governor best investigate these coun-
ties and use all the powers the law gives
him to have life and property protected %
In view Of the Herald's publication It
would hardly seem to be necessary for Gov.
Stone to ask the New York Sun to reveal
the identity Of its correspondent; vicks-
burg Is so much nearer home than New
York

coroner's jury in Baltimore yesterday
came to the conclusion that proper "fen-
der" in front of a cable car would have
saved the life of John Nelson. who, on the
previous night, was killed and horribly mu-
tilated by collision with grip car on one of
the Baltimore city lines. The car in ques-
ton was fitted with an imitation fender,
such as are on grip cars In Washington,
and when 1t came in contact with the un-
fortunate man it proved the misnomer by
mangling and overriding the victim. Acting
upon the testimony, the jury exonerated
both gripman and conductor and then added
to the formal verdict statement that the
jury take this occasion to express their Sc
we're condemnation Of the failure of the
rapid-transit lines in general to provide ade-
quate means Of protection against injuries
and death"
Where are the improved tenders of which
so much has been said? Are we waiting for
other sacrifices?

watches zealously over what he believes
TO be the states welfare and when the ma
hcious assafl Its reputation, flies to its de-
Iense with all possible speed For some
Time past many stories have been published
ABOUT cotton gins destroyed and cotton
planters abused because they were willing
TO sell their shares of the cotton crop for
less than 10 cents per pound-the minimum
price arbitrarily set by a branch of that
great and apparently growing organiza-
ton known to the public as the White
Caps But a few days ago Gov. Stone
wrote strong letter to the New York
Sun. In which he took the Sun to task for
an editorial in which were denounced the
state governments of Mississippi and Lou
isiana for permitting organized gangs of
1ncendiaries TO terrorize the community.
In language about the meaning of which
there can be no two opinions, Gov. Stone
denied every accusation and declared with
solemn emphasis that mot a gin or gin
house In the state of Mississippi has been
burned by White Caps or any other SINH
Iar organization since the ginning season
OF 1888 commenced" Then the sova-nor
proceeded to say, you have done us a
great wrong by publishing the falsehoods

The assassination of Carter Harrison,
mayor of Chicago. removes from the ac-
uvities OF political and municipal life in
the western metropolis the most conspicu-
Gus figure that hustling community has
ever known. Many elements of greatness
were combined In the character of the
murdered man. He was naturally a clever
Judge OF human nature. and this quality
was enhanced by a broad and deeply-
founded education. Keen witted, ready of
speech and writer of more than ordinary
force. he would have attained eminence in
any profession to which he might have de-
voted himself. Five times did he receive
mayoralty honors at the hands of his fel-
low-Chicagoans and although his strongest
supporters were not always of the highly
respectable classes he was nevertheless the
most universally popular man in the
worries fair city. The crime that cut him
on while political promotion was easily
probable. sent a thrill of horror through
the whole country.

For some little time the friends Of the
Brazilian republic have regarded with sus-
picion the movements of those who are en-
deavoring to overturn the authority Of
President Peixoto. From the beginning Of
the present difficulty no one has ever adj
vanced a single sound reason why the navy
should have revolted. nor has there been
even the least suggestion of the reform that
might follow the supremacy of Mello. The
general public has had the idea that both
combatants were republican in their beliefs
and that no matter which was successful
there would be no change in the prevailing
form Of government. Such a conclusion.
reached unconsciously. was not strange. for
the people Of Brazil had themselves de-
throned and exiled one of the most lovable
OF monarchs, but it seems now as though
there was a suficiency Of royalist leaven
IN the country to at least cause considerable
disturbance. More than a week ago there
came limitations from London to the effect
that the next Of kin to the late Dom Pedro
was preparing to journey toward the one
time realm Of his illustrious predecessor.
and within a day or so evidences Of Euro
pean Intervention in his behalf have de-
veloped to such an extent that this govern
ment, deliberate even to carelessness as it
Is in foreign affairs that should deeply in
terest US, Is preparing to make strong
naval demonstration at Rio de Janeiro.
How far the administration will go in its
support of President Peixoto and of the re-
public which supports him cannot now be
guessed at. but II 1t has any regard for the
national sentiment 1t will do a great deal
rather than permit the re-establishment of
q monarchy In Brazil. The United States
Is strong enough to say what shall or shall
not be done In Brazil and 1t would be justi-
Ned In drawing an Enthusiastically apparent
chalk line beyond which the powers of
Europe should not go. The old world
plotters doubtless hope to kill two birds
with the one stone. By resurrecting the
monarchy-should they succeed-they would
deal this country's prestige a terrific blow,
would put an effectual stop to buncombe
founded on the declarations of Monroe, and
at the same time would set UP influences
50 extremely antagonistic and so powerful
that all semblance of our commerce with
Brazil must surely be wiped out. To pre-
vent damage to either our national reputa-
ton or our pocketbook the administration
may need to move with alacrity. Let every
true American pray that the situation may
be appreciated more rapidly and more ac-
curately than that presented by the diff
culties In Hawaii has been.

Admitting that the oyerh

Admitting that the overhead trolley street
car motor Is cheaper as to construction than
any OF its competitors It must be insisted
upon that its operation Is much more costly
TO the public than other varieties of rapid
transit Brooklyn's experience testifies to this
with rollof dead and injured that appals the
Investigator. And the great number of casu-
alties drains the companies financial re-
sources too, evidenced by the fact that suits
aggregatfng more than a million dollars
have been instituted in Brooklyn by rela-
tives of the deceased and fragments of the
living. The dangers of the overhead trolley
have not been exaggerated. Philadelphia is
finding that out. About two weeks ago a
severe rainstorm swept over the Quaker
City and that night large number of per-
sons, who happened to come in contact with
trolley poles. received electric shocks such
as they are not likely to forget for long
while. Discussing those occurrences the
superintendent OF one Of Philadelphia's cleo
trio light companies said: should the in
sulaton on the feed wires of the trolley
lines become broken on by wind storms the
iron poles would Immediately become
charged with electricity. as iron is a good
conductor. Since the voltage is 500 or over
II Is possible. II the insulation is worn en-
tirely on. that a person touching the poles
might be killed No man can stand a shock
or 90 volts. and many nothing like that
pressure. Besides. water is an excellent
conductor, and electric fluids charge more
quickly during rafnstorms." Another cleo
trfcian is quoted by the Philadelphia Press
as saying: That these poles are dangerous
IN storm Is undeniable. I am certain that
L should not want to touch one of them or
see any one touch them. 1t IS useless to
Try TO make people believe that electricity
IL not dangerous. for 1t is under any condd-
tons at present; but II the public Is edu.
Gated on the matter so that the people will
realize their danger there need not be a
great many casualties. If people are taught
TO avoid leaning against trolley poles or
stepping on broken wires they will be rea.
-sonaoie safe, but still the danger from COM
ing In contact with these poles Is not the
only one. When the overhead wire is in on
Grafton there will be danger of the current
being communicated through the water pines
ana gas pipes right in our houses, so that n
would be dangerous to turn on the p.s
Tnat Is not an imminent danger, but II ia
a possible one" How extremely p1easant
all these possibilities are and how Glad
Washfngtonians should be that there are
corporations willing to inconvenience and
endanger the public that cooperative nro4,
may accrue!
