The various contingents of the "Commonweal
Army In different sections of the country have
not stood up TO be counted, but still they have
been pretty accurately numbered. According to
reports received by the Washington police,
there are thirteen contngents in ALL and the
total number of men in the ranks is 6,j0O. not
counting Coxey's original force. now said 10
number $40 men. But they will not reach the
capital in a body. Coxey's company is only a
few miles from Washington now If its mem
bers become dsorderly there and are handled
severely, the other contingents will be likely
TO 90 10 pieces long before they get anywhere
near the District of Columbia. Indeed, ycster-

some Of them will find themselves IN jail or

THE PORT ARTHUR CRIME

There seems no room to doubt now
that the Japanese lost all control OF
themselves on entering Port Arthur, and
for DAYS INDUCED in saturnala of blood.
They were provoked to this by the visible
evidence OF the torture the Japanese
prisoners had been put to by the Chinese
but they carried their revenge beyond all
the bounds of even eyc-for-an-eve
tooth.for-a-tooth retaliation. The New
York Worlds cable says that even the
Chinese women and children were slain
as fast as they were met with.
Not only was this harbarous beyond
anything that was thought possible OF
the Japanese, one of the most gentle races
on the globe under ordinary circum'
stances, but it was an immense mistake
from polite point of view. 1t will
inevitably create some sympathy toI
China, and it may also be the cause o
England interfering on the part of The
latter ostensibly in the interests OF pre-
veuting such horrors in the future. but
really because she has been against Iapar

Is CHARLOTTE JEALOUS.

An Asheville citizen, conversing with a
visitor a few days ago, said to the latter
that, il he did not find in this City lust
what he sought as place to live and do
business in, he might. with better sue
cess, try Charlotte as one of the growing
enterprising towns of the South. The
visitor replied that he had visited Char
lotte, and that Ashevile suited him much
better from every point of view and he
added that he was surprised that any
Ashevile man should commend Char
lotte, since, during his visit there. when
it became known that he had already
been in Ashevillc, he heard a great deal
of adverse comment of this city. Ashe.
vile was called a dead town." town
that had its boom" town with moth
ing but its climate"
This is surprising, and it is to be hoped
that this visitors experience was excep'
tiona. The two cities cannot be con-
sidered rivals in any sense; in fact, Ashe'
vile has no rival anywhere in the South.
Wenote with sincere pleasure that Char
lot.e adds frequently to her already long
list of manufactures: that new buildings
are being erected almost constantly;
that she has tributary to her the best
system of country roads in the State;
that her people are enterprising; her
newspapers among the best. il not the
best in the State. She has not the
Ashcville air, but her other attractions,
lust enumerated, certainly ought to make
her satisfied with her share of the good
things of the earth.
There must be some mistake about it.;
it cannot be that the average citizen OF
Charlotte finds it necessary, in recon-
mending his own town to the attentions
of visitors, to also condemn Asheville
There is room in plenty for both cities.

In Canada abOTt One.tenth of the mile
ny" OF a!,ou. $4,000 miles is owned, con
tr"'lcd n1:d Oppressed by the government
For the year 1892 the operation of the
government lines resulted in a loss OF over
SGUo.UcO.
At the present date by far the large,
portion (about fve-slxths) of the French
railway system is operated by privat.
companies, each company serving fine adj
ite territory and being comparatively free
from O competition of other lines. But the
railroad properties are ultimately to be.
come the property of the government.
This system is Il mixed one of state and
private ownership.
In Germany nearly 80 per sent of the
railway mileage is owned by the govern
ment. Under the law the government is
required to manag the railways in the
interest of general traffic on a single sys-
TEN. 1t may cause the construction and
equipment of roads SID enforce uniform
traffic and police regSlatins.
In Great Britain and Ireland tho o
does not own the railways. There
are stringent regulations provided by law
and administered by the railroad commiss-
ion and board of trade.
Italy has tried both state and private
railroads and has come to the conclusion
that it is not advantageous to own and
operate the railways. The result was a
reorganization of the whole railway sys-
EN-. private companies operate the state
onds under contract with the go vernment.
in Russia, the government is stated to
own and operate about 40 per cent of the
railway mileage. Nearly all of the rail-
ways owned by private com panies have
received subsidies from the government.
1t Is stated in the United States several
of the states ha 70 railroad ownership in II
limited way. Illinois constructed q road
at q cost of $l.G00,OOO but disposed of it
for $1OO,COO: Indiana had a similar s1-
perience; Georgjn owns a railroad. bat
found it e1pedient to Loose it to a private
company; Pennsylvania constructed q
from Philadelphia to Columbia.
but subsequently, sold it; Massar husetts.
Michigan and several other states tried
the experience without success.
Tho interstate commission
disclaims any original investigation on
subject, the report being compiled
from existing sources of information.
