president Of the Rochester Railway com.
panv, and read at the convention Of the
American Street Railway association at
Atlanta, Ca, October 1919, 1894. The
paper goes into the transfer question in
detail. and says that "the most success
tul companies have come to realize that
in the matter of transfers. as we'll as in
other matters, it paws to treat the rid.
ing public literally" Mr.. Bsckley ad.
vises liberal transfer system, properly
guarded TO prevent fraud. Then follows
talk on the form of transfer ticket, and
a sample of the tickets in use on the
Rochester railway is pasted in the pam.
ph,et. A glance is sufficient to show
that the ticket is substantially identical
with the ticket used on the Asheville
company's lines, which was referred to
in THE CITIZEN yesterday. Which goes
to show that in the matter OF transfer
tickets the company is abreast of the
times.

MR.. CAVES SENTIMENTS.

In all the press comments on the
speech Of the Rev. Mr. Cave at the un-
yelling of the confederate monument at
Richmond, Va, on Decoration Day. not
one word Of censure or condemnation
can be found In any southern paper
The accounts Of the speech as published
throughout this section are profusely in
terlarded with the parenthetical express
sIons "Tremendous Applause" Great
Applause" ETC., and yet these are the
people who are continually decrying
what is termed the bloody shirt senti-
ment Of the north. They do not seem to
realize that the best evidence Of the
tolerance and forbearance of the north
Is to be found in the fact that in any
other country on earth, under whatever
form of government, this man Cave
would now be langulshing in prison
awaiting trial for seditious behavior, If
not for the grayer offense Of treason
itself. One Of the anomalies of our gov
ernment which never ceases to excite
the wonder OF well informed foreigners
is that not only are such traitors as this
man Cave (and there are many of them
allowed to run at large, but more amaz-
ing still some Of the men who were most
active in fomenting the rebellion and
who after they had succeeded In start
ing the strife, actually redeemed their
swords in the patriotic blood Of the ma
tIon, are now occupying the highest and
most responsible offices under the gov
ernment and laws they sought to de-
stroy. To add to the singularity of the
spectacle these men are known by their
repeated public declarations never to
have repented their former betrayal OF
the country, but on the other hand they
glory In their record, and dare to an
nounce even on the floors Of congress

they were right then and that they hold

CHRISTIAN ENDEAvoR WORK.

Much interest has centered in the
Christian Endeavor work IN Life-Saving
stations, and at the international con-
vention in Montreal, Canada, an ad-
vanced movement was made by adding
the light houses and light ships to the
work; also including the United King
dom of Great Britain in the field Of
operation. Men were chosen to repre-
sent England, Ireland, Scotland and
Wales on the international committee,
which consists of representatives from
every state and province where life
saving stations, light houses and light
ships are located. Rev. S. Edward
Young, Asbury Park, N. J., is chairman;
Rev. j. Lester Wells, 1888 Grand street,
Jersey City, N. j., is secretary. They
delivered addresses at the Montreal
convention, the former speaking of the
spiritual wants and the latter Of the in
tellectual and physical needs Of the
crews The life-savers of the world are
the, bravest men, and continually hazard
their lives for others; they guard 10000
miles or more of dangerous coasts and
have rescued more than a million peo-
pie from shipwreck. AS the most of
Ithem are isolated from home and fiiends
1t is highly fitting that worldwide SYM
pathy should be extended to them, also
to the men connected with the light
houses and light ships, upon whom ves-
sells freghted with precious lives de-
pend for safety. Christian Endeavor so
cieties, located near, stations or light
houses are recommended to conduct ap-
propriate services for the crews and
also furnish comfort bags. books, maga-
zines, papers, mits, mufilers, wristlets,
socks, yarn caps and the like, for the
comfort of the surfmen. Those who de-
sire further information with reference
to this noble movement may address the
secretary.
