Here is something that is said to have
happened less than a year ago, within less
than hundred miles Of this city, says
the Chicago Times. An elderly lady
whom / shall call Mrs. Smith, set out for

Friends gathered around her OF the little
way station where she meant to take the
train They had so much to say that the
gates of it were on the point of closing as
she made to set aboard. Il was startling,
in fact. when she saw a man in cOnduc-

The decision of Judge Carpenters court
al Boston that the Berliner telephone
patent is void, does not settle the cues
ton by any means. 1t is only prelimi-
nary defeat for the Bell telephone monop-
oily. The Berliner patent is the last one
that stands between the monopoly and
the public, and if it were finally declared
void, the field would be open for unre-
strained competition in telephone service.
However, the case will now be taken to
the federal court of appeals, and if that
court should sustain Judge Carpenter.
the case would be removed from it to the
United States supreme court 1t is
thought that the greater part of a year
will yet be required to settle the matter.
If it were to be settled tomorrow, how
ever, the prospects are that there would
not soon be any opposition to the Bell
company worthy of the name. That com
pany has the advantage of complete
plant in every city of consequence, and is
in a position to hold its own against al
most any competition that might be
brought against 1t.

Kolb's Scheme.

The resolution offered in the Senate by
the pOpulist Senator Allen. to appoint
a committee TO inquire whether there is
a republican form Of government IN Ala
bama, and whether Alabama's senators
and representatives, in congress were
elected 5y force or fraud. or both. recalls
the time when the carpet-baggers We're
beginning TO lose their grip upon the
south. When their candidates for congress
were defeated they hurried 20 Washington
and asked a republican congress TO send
investigating committees 10 the south TO
get evidence upon which 70 unseat demo-
cratic senators and representatives. And
the republican congress gladly granted
these requests. There are thousands Of
pages Of testimony taken by these con-
mittees slowed away among the public
documents at Washington.
The popuIists Of Alabama are trying to
play the role that was once so success
fully played by the carpet-bag republicans.
a man named Reese, who claims to have
been elected United States senator by
the legislature of Alabama. has succeed
ed in getting the populists in congress to
champion the cause which he represents.
They have had caucus. and have de-
cided that Capt. Kolb should have a
chance to show that he was elected gov
ernor Of Alabama and that Col. Reese
should be given an opportunity 10 give
his reasons for thinking the Alabama leg
islature elected him United States sena-
tor.
1t cannot. of course. be stated what the
Senate will do with the resolution intro
duced by Senator Allen. but the proba-
bilities are that it will tell the senator
and those who sympathize with the cause
he champions that there is no ground
whatever for such an investigation as he
requests. and if it should do that it would
do what the whole country would con-
slider to be right.
Ever since he was defeated for governor
Capt Kolb has been asserting that he was
elected and that he was cheated out
Of his election by fraud. He has never
tAtStAANNu any tNiheItt OF the truth OF
his assertion that would be accepted in
court of law. No clear headed and fair
minded man in Alabama believes he can
produce evidence that he was elected
If he could produce it he would have done
so long ago, and if he had done so there
are thousands Of democrats in Alabama
who would insist that he should be given
chance to present his evidence and make
out case if he could.

Col. Oates was elected governor and it
elected Mr. Morgan to the Senate. We

South Cardinals Force Bill.

The whole south protested when the re-
publican party attempted to pass a force
bill which. if it had became a law. would
have been used to build up that party in
the southern states. The protest was
heard and needed. The democrats and
conservative republicans of the north
came to the support of the south, and the
force bill was killed in the Senate.
And yet that measure was not so iniqui-
tous as the police force bill concocted by
the Tillmanites to accomplish political
ends Even the Columbia Register, the
Tillman organ, cannot stand it, Comment
ing upon the bill it says: Think of it,!
Three men are given power to pass upon
the government of every town and city in
South Carolina and say whether or not
the laws of the state are properly enforced
or not. If two of those men should fancy
that the laws are not properly enforced in
any or all the cities and towns they have
the power to take charge of their police
What a tremendous machine this is! At
a moments caprice two state officers can
behead every policeman in South Caro-
lima and have at their disposal a whole
raft of offices TO reward political adher-
ents. They can govern every city and
town in the state. They can use the entire
police force as political heelers. Suppose
two of the successors of the governor
controller general and secretary Of state
should be grasping, ambitious men, how
they could control the towns and citiesr'
The Tnlmanites have been, and are still
carrying things with a high hand in South
Carolina. They act as if they were in
power for all time. They will find them
selves mistaken. The people will endure
a great deal, but there is a limit to their
endurance. Some of the ablest of the Till
man senators have condemned this police
force bill in the strongest kind of Ian
guage. They may be but pioneers of an
uprising against the Tillman rule. Some
of the very men who helped to make Till
man what he is may help TO pull him
down. Unless his followers show more
wisdom and moderation the Tillman fac
ton will be swept from power long before

servatives have only to wait to be called

The city council has reduced the budget
considerably for the coming year. 1t is
TO be hoped the time is not distant when it
can be very greatly reduced in order that
a lower tax rate may be adopted The
tax rate is altogether too high. partic-
ularly as property is assessed at very
near its market value. A lower tax rate
would encourage the establishing of bus
mess and industrial enterprises of one
kind and another.
