The Viking ship, which was built on
the model OF an old Viking rover found
fourteen years ago in the ground deep
under the village OF GoHEtnd. near
Sandefiord, sailed from Christlania on
April y, 1899. Her commander was the
fanous capt. Magnus Anderson, who
w'th picked crew. cruised along the
coast for a time and early In May com
menced the trip across the Atlantic,
which ended triumphantly.

A NOTABLE ANNIVERSARY.

Today the people of his diocese are
celebrating the fortieth anniversary of
the conservation of Right Reverend
THOMAS M. CLARK as bishop.
This forenoon impressive services were
held in Grace Church and this afternoon
a public reception is accorded the vener-
able and beloved head of the church.
1t is long term of service that Bishop
CLARK rounds today and the observance
of it is also an observance OF a large
and important chapter in the history of
the Episcopal Church in Rhode Island.
Beloved at home and distinguished
abroad, the gracious, scholarly man
who has for 50 many years been, by
distinction of official position and by
attainments and capacity as well, the
head of the church, may well be accord
ed a tribute that shall reflect alike a
warm personal cordiality on the part of
clerical and laymen- and the obligation
of the church body to faithful, broad
minded and energetic leader.

THE NEW YORK FIGHT.

The resumption of the work of the

The election that has swept the sponsors
Of crimes against the people being ex-

some comment of nature not pleasant
TO note.
There seems to have been a more or
less strong feeling that, having won at

tive for the reformers TO continue to
expose the awful rottenness of the police
department OF New York city, and that
as soon as some fit pretext can be dis
covered the work Of the committee will
DE wound mp and the matter allowed TO
quietly die out.

or not 1t is a little too early to deter

foundation in fact.

UNIFORMITY OF LAW.

Representative MCCALL has begun the
session well by the introduction OF a
bill to establish national commission
to promote uniformity of laws upon
subjects wherein diversity Is him
drance 10 interstate commerce. The bill
proposes TO create a commission OF three
mem bers, whose duty ii shall be to pre-
pare codes OF the substantive lazy upon
subjects of commercial and mercantile
law, and especially the laws upon sales
and sellers liens, stoppage in transit,
the liability of carriers, negotiable
papers, the making and execution OF
deeds, and the law of domestic relations,
including marriage and divorce.
Uniform marriage and divorce laws
are imperatively needed, and the present
system of allowing each State to regu-
late these MAJ ters has brought disgrace
on the nation and suffering upon
thousands Of innocent persons. A man
may have a dozen legal wives and yet
not be bigamist, SO long as he keeps
them in separate States, for some States
will not recognize the divorce granted
by other states, while what constitutes
a legal marriage in one State is illegal
in another. A woman may be mans
wife in Rhode Island, and his mistress
in New York.
No subject Of legislation is more i'm
portant than this, tor in the homes of
the people lies the strength of the nation,
and unless safeguards are thrown
around the sanctity of those homes by
law it is useless to expect that it will be
regarded In their absence.

APERNICIOUS RECOMMENDATION

The repeal of the State Bank tax which
Mr.. CLEVELAND urged, and urged en-
phatically, will be received with appre-
hension and dismay, for it not only
means the revival of wild cat banks with
their issues Of currency Of shifting and
changeable values, but IT means further
expansion Of the currency that BODIES no
good to honest money. The older gen.
GRAFTON has not forgotten the days Of
wild cat banks and currency, and the
panic that followed this episode in our
national finance in 1878, and has no
desire TO witness repetition of the dark
tays or that period when banks by the
hundreds were swept away and millions
worth OF currency became as worthless
as the same amount of waste paper
Under the plan suggested by the present
administration it is doubtful if the
National Government could exercise
any supervision over the issues of cur
rency made by State banks and we
stand too near to the insane theories of
Populism, which have swept over sections
of this country with irresistible force, to
be willing to place our currency in the
hands OF such men as PETER, as would
be done in states given over to Populism.

ANOTHER LOST OPPORTUNITY.

Mr.. CLEVELAND had it in his power to
PROFOUND solution of the currency
problem, which, at the present time, is
the most important one before the ma
tion, that should win for him an envia-
BILE name and would give the country
rest after the financial storms of the
past two years. Instead of graphing
with this problem in statesmanlike
way he has yielded everything to the
demands Of CARLISLE and is content TO
follow the lead and accept the guidance
Of the most unwise and unsound finan-
cier who ever stood at the head of the
treasury department.
