Japan n"y,nE American Rails
louisville COMMENCEMENT,

'I-ouiSNllie Courier-J ournal)
the announcement was made the
other day that an agent of Japanese
'irm had placed I'm order for 5000 tong
or steel rails With the Carnegie Com
panN. The contract was secured in
competition with English rail mills bids
having been invited by Mitsui K Co,
who had charge of the purchase. The
price Is not stated. but as freight rates
from Pittsburg to Japan are higher
man from England, the Carnegie Com
DanV must have considerably underbiu
their European competitors.
we mention this here not only as n
iurther proof of our contention that
thcre Is neither Justice nor policy in
making American railroads pay S2S a
ton for rails that cost about SlS25 to
make: but also us indicating that n pro-
HtaDle trade may be opened un with
Asia by our iron and steel manufactur-
erS This Is the third largo order for
rams which has been placed I'm this coun-
lrN bV Japanese agents within the past
rev months. The Carnegie COMPANY
cot one of the first and the Illinois Steel
company the other. each being for 10, :
600 tons. Nlitsui 4 Co have opened an
oiiice in New York, and Il Is not likely
theV would have done this unless they
expected to extend their transactions
This company is one of the largest I'm
Asia having branches at Toxic, Yoko-
hams. Osaka. Kobe. Ilogo, Shimono-
seki Nngasaki, Kuchnotsu. IIakodate.
shanghai and other cities I'm India and
China and a branch in London
Another circumstance which bears out
the theory that we may build up prof
table business is the fact that the jap
ancse Government has sent its Chief
l}hilroad Inspector. Mr.. Matsumoto. to
| this country 10 ascertain ii 1t will not be
hetter To change the Japanese roads
from narrow TO broad-gauGe at once
There are now three large railway sys-
TENS which are all virtually controlled
Nv The Government, and "A change of the
gauge would mean that in addition to
rnpid extension of railways there
would be II great deal of old material
replaced by new. American locomotives
have been sold to a considerable extent
In Japan. and the way has been opened
| for the marketing of all sorts of railway
nppliances.
The industrial development of any
country ought not TO brighten such n
great manufacturing nation as this. In
reality it is encouraging, for 1t means
increased consumptive power and
makes possible a large trade. The SILL
ness that WAS displayed n few months
ago bv manufacturers and Legislators
who went into conniptiOn fits over the
prospect of Japanese competition is now
dying out,

struction having been chartered by the

sixty feet wide and ten feet deep, so
that ordinary coaItwise vessels can

The Improvement of this canal also

Siderable territory now under water II,

by the agricultural production of the

II is MI too much to expect that the

Ii was a foolish sermon about "Old
Maids" that was recently preached by
the Rev. Mr.. Sammis in the Baptist
Church at South River, N. j., and
about which. as he says. a great fuss
has been made. Oh. yes, Miriam may
have been an old maid, but the mother
OF the Gracchl wasn't, and we would
probably never have had Shakespeare
Il his mother had been one AS to the
'ridiculed and despised spinsters, -
whom NJ. Sammis exalted. his language
was stuff and nonsense. Spinsters are
not ridiculed o: despised, excepting
by fools or blackguards. Ii is not true
that 'spinsters are the superiors of the
great majority of their married sisters. :"
Wives and spins,ers are very much alike
in their womanhood.
There was 4 lot of CANNON about
wives as well as spinsters in the Rev.
MIR. Sammis' sermon. Here is a scrap
of It:
."Give woman too much power and
you Will repent it. II the lady of the
house gets fun control of domestic affairs
YOU viii soon see her coming II over her
husband in an alarming manner Just
limit her power little and all will go
pleasantly: but give her compete con-
troll and tina; settles it,"
This South River preacher ought 10
get out of his pulpit He is q stupid old
bachelor and knows nothing about
either wives or spinsters.
