Virtue triumphant.

Truths beautiful as well as safe and mighty.
In the incident related below, says the Observer,
a boy ~ years old, with only truth as a wespon,
conquered a smart and shrewd lawyer who was
fighting for bad cause.
Walter was the important witness In a law
suit. One'of the lawyers, after cross-Question-
ing him severely, said:
'Your father has been talking to you and
telling you how to testify, hasn't he?"
YES" said the boy.
"Nov," said the lawyer. lust tell us how
your father told you 10 testify"
Well" said the boy. modestly, father told
me that the lawyers would try and tangle me
in my testimony; but if I would Just be careful
and tell the truth could tell the same thing
every time"
The lawyer didn't try to tangle up the boy
any more.

Mcleod Drona Ont

In our dispatches yesterday it was an
nounced that Mr.. A. A. Mcleod has re-
signed from the presidency Of the Philadel-
phia and Reading railroad, and that he
would soon resign the receivership. His
reason for resigning is the belief that as
long as he is a controlling influence in the
management of the road it cannot obtain
needed financial assistance.
1t has not been very long since Il was
thought that Mcleod was about the brainest
railroad man in the country. His picture
was in the newspapers and columns were
written about his remarkable rise in the
rsilroadworld. He formed railroad combi-
nations which, it was said, would make
Reading one of the greatest and most pros
porous railroad properties In the country.
Reading stock bad a marvellous rise and
every stockholder united in saying that
Mcleod as a railroad financier and manipu-
lator hadn't an equal in the country.
But it is now apparent that Mcleod was
beyond his depth. He made a great show
of leasing railroads and buying the control
of others until he had saddled a heavier
load upon Reading than it could carry.
Then it was suddenly discovered that Nc
Leod wasn't railroad genius-that he had
simply used the immense resources at his
command to promote schemes that we're
contrary to law and that were not based
upon sound business principles. He did
what about any other smart railroad man
could have done, and he wrecked the COM
pany that had been intrusted to him. When
those who furnish money to needy COM
panies and corporations would not trust him
any longer he was forced to step
down and out with the consciousness
that instead of making a reputation for
himself as shrewd and safe business man
he had simply ruined financially a rood
that was getting along remarkably we'll be-
fore he had anything to do with directing
its affairs.
There are good many men like Mcleod.
They promise a great deal and accomplish
little or nothing. How they succeed in
| getting into places for which they have no
fitness is one of the things that is difficult to
explain. Mcleod may be heard OF again,
| but If he is it will be found that he has sue
ceeded in getting place requiring much
less brain power than the one he was COM
PEELED to abandon and one for which he is
much better fitted.

The Progress of the South.

The depressing influences of the past two years
have wei. nigh disappeared and conditions are
conducive TO growth in every direction. The
boom period is past. The lesson it taught has
been thoroughly learned 1t dissipated many
boards Il caused great waste OF capital and
EFFORT. But 10 spite Of it-perhaps by its help
some localities secured during the era Of excite
ment the necessary start in various lines Of in
dustry. OF the many experiments Of town

TO convince southern capitalists for twenty
years to come that booming is a risky business.

The Max Judd Incident.

From the Nelc YORK. Times (IHd.l
1t would be a little curious if the United
States should be almost unwittingly drawn into
the complex and vexatious snarl of the Jewish
question on the continent, 1t seems that there
is a certain amount of excitement in Vienna
over the nomination of Max Judd to be consul
general of the United States in that city on the
ground that he is Hebrew Very likely this is
the first tntimation on that point that the
United States government has received, and
other things being equal, no attention would be
paid TO it. It is clear that any effect of the re-
ported opposition will depend on the Austrian
government Our own will necessarily ignore
1t entirely. unless some representation be made
by Austria, and that is extremely unlikely.

Next Sunday April 81 will be the ami
versary Of the surrender Of Lee at Apps
mattox. Twenty-eight years will then
have elapsed since the fall of the confeder-
Gcy and the end OF the civil war. During
that short time the bitterness Of the past be-
tween the sections has died out, and the re-.
currence OF the anniversary will see the
nation q reunited whole, the grandest gov
eminent and the best country on the face Of
the globe. Immediately after Appomattox
the south accepted the situation and went
to work with a will to retrieve her lost
fortunes, in which she has been remarkably
successful. As an example Of the efficacy
OF intelligent industry, the growth Of the
south during tina last tweatyveighb years is
without parallel.

peculiar letter from an office-seeker res
Gently. The writer said he realized that
time was valuable and therefore begged to

loss OF the time necessary to file his papers
properly. The private secretary was dis
posed to be indignant at first, but soon re-
allied that the candidate did not intend the
money as a bride, However. the money
and the application were both returned to

To the American workiugman, who gets
his S. to s. day in money, some of the
contracts between the worlds fair workmen
and their employers must be source Of
amusement, For instance, the several Es-
quimaux at the fair grounds are under con-
tract for a years services, for which each is
to receive 800 newfoundland shilliugs, each
Of which is equal TO 20 cents in the coin Of
thiscountry; one rifle, twenty cartridges
twenty pounds of powder, ten pounds Of
shot, 1000 gun Gaps, one barrel of pork
three barrels OF flour, one barrel Of pilot
bread twenty yards of cloth, four pairs Of
blankets 100 fish hooks, twenty gallons of
molasses, ten pounds Of tea, 200 pounds of
salt and thirty pounds of rice. What would
an American workingman think If be should
be approached with like offer OF wages for
years work!

1t is notable that in the hearing Of the
South Carolina tax cases before the United
States supreme court, the attorney general
OF the state took no part. Arguments we're
made by the speaker of the House of Rep,
resentatives and a Virginia lawyer. The
governor, it would seem, could not afford
to trust the alliance>msde attorney general
to handle matter of so much importance.
There is nothing TO be said against the ems
ploVment of any counsel the authorities
might deem necessary or advisable But
the incident seems to show that Gov. Till
man lacks confidence in his own cabinet.

Vice. President Stevenson, with scarcely
more than half dozen words, has made
himself 'solid" for life with the colonies.
As be was walking up to the capitol few
days ago a reporter asked him, Are the
offioe-seekers annoying your mot at oil, d."
he replied, cheerlly. "They are not feeling
a bit more anxious now than 1 felt last fall "
The innermost cookies Of the colonies hearts

feeling, and it is probable that some of them

IL is likely that the failure of the strike of
the worlds fair carpenters, noted in the
MORNING News dispatches yesterday, was
the result of a piece Of sharp practice on the
part Of the fair managers. On Mon
Cay morning a threatened strike of painters
was settled in this unusual manner: Super
iutendent of Painting Allen called the
painters together aud asked all those who
were willing to work for IS cents an hour
to step to one side. One hundred and
twenty-five men did this, the others being
dismissed. Mr.. Allen then said to those re-
naming: Just to show you men that the
exposition authorities mean to do well by
you, want to announce that we will pay
you 45 cents an hour. This is cents an
hour more than you asked for when you
went out" Remembering this incident, it
is probable that the carpenters looked for
something similar to happen in their case
when they refused to quit work. But it
didn't
