The demagogues in the Councils of
Chicago have agreed to make the
birthday of the Emperor William of
Germany a legal holiday in that city.
Tueexcuse of tbis remarkable act is that
AS the Irish of that city have the
privilege of observing st. Patrick's
Day as a legal holiday the same
privilege should be accorded to the
German population. The extent Of
foreign influence in that city is shown
by this enactment. Why the Ger
mans living in a great American city
should select the most conspicuous rep
resentative Of Imperialism and anti
democratic ideas in Europe next to
the Gar for this homage is not easy to
understand. William is a young
man Of ability, who represents modern
kingcraft in its least attractive pOliti-
cal phases. There is nothing in his
character as q ruler with which any
good American can s%ympathise.
But even if he were a wiser man than
he has thus far shown himself to be or
afriend ofliberty there would be no rea-
son for exalting him to the rank Of the
few heroes in this country whom the
American people honor by legal de-
cree. The Chicago council have simply
given a wretched illustration of dema-
gogy such as every American should
set his face against regardless of the
nationality of those in whose suppos-
cd honor it is praoticed. The Ger
mans, as a rule, in this country have
not allowed their national prejudices
and prepOssessiOns to interfere with
their loyalty to American institutions.
They have in fact generally shown
more good sense in this respect than
any other class of foreigners who
come among US, and they should put
an end to the cheap tricks Of the vote.
catehers who are trying TO play upon
their nativity. A German who
demands that the law ina this country
recognize the Emperor William as a
hero is certainly not on the path that
leads to good American citizenship.

After many years Of experiment
ing with the storage battery AS a reser-
voir of power from which to run
the street car some satisfactory results
have recently been obtained in san
Francisco which justify greater Eek
pectations in regard to the storage
battery. not only to supply the power
for street car locomotiou but also to
retain it for satisfactory periods, tile
latter desideratum having been the
one i'm which the greatest deficiency
has heretofore existed.
There is, therefore; reasonable hope
10 expect thatthe trolley wire against
which 30 many objections shave been
made, some Of "a reasonable and others
Of a very unreasonable character, may
be dispensed with. Each storage
battery car will carry It's own propell-
ing force which may cause the aboli-
ton of the train of cars which has
been found 40 objectionable i'm Phila-
daiohia aud other cities under the
cable system, by eutailing delays to
many who do not want to stop, and
also rendering it necessary for large
percentage Of the patrons to wade
through mud away from the regular
crossings. The storage battery also
may do away with the frequent stops
caused by fractura4 of the trolley wire
Valuable time Will be saved by stop
ing and starting these cars more
quickly uhan Is possible with the
horse or cable car, just as we o see
it with the trolley system here in
Shenandoah. A recent improvement
said 10 have been effected in insula-
ton will prevent such vehicles from
being retarded by now or rain, while
extremes of temperature will make
little or no difference in .their rate OF
speed.
The trolley wire may ill be employ.
ed for many years on elevated lines
where the elements of danger or dis
tarbance are reduced to a minimum.
The trolley will long hold its own be
cause of relatively small loss of force
in transmission. But the storage bat.
terry when perfected will be the motive
power employed in the future, near or
distant, for surface fears in sall cities
and large towns. And it mauifestly
possesses vast advantages I'VE other
modes of propulsion, so that its gene
raj adoption cannot be deferred much
longer although the difficulties to be
overcome were much greater than
those which mp to the present
time have seemed to bar the way to its
use in the streets generally.

Grant Her One-The Handsome Young
School Teacher Has Been Ill.
CHESTER, May AT Media, Judge
Waddell yesterday refused to grant
new trial of the sensational case of Miss
Alice Cooley against Judge ClaYton's
son Samuel. The handsome South
Chester school teacher got verdict for
$500 against the young man at the trial
some weeks ago. Her attorney, ex-Judge
Broomall, and Clayton's lawyer argued
the motion for a new trial The venera-
BILE ex Judge made a scathing address
to which Judge Clayton and Samuel were
rather uneasy listeners.
Judge Waddell decided Immediately
after hearing the argument that a new
rrial would be refused. To get the case
before the Supreme Court, Miss Good
leys attorney raised technical point,
but that was overcome and the famous
case is now.probably settled permanently.
Miss Cooley, who has been i'll, returned
