I.x-Postmlster General Wanamaker has
come down off the fence, where he was
sitting in a gale whistlins for the
return of the dove Prosperity Mr. Wan
amaker thinks the gale has abated TO
zephyr from different quarter; and that
the gentle bird will shortly make its re-
appearance. 1t has not come back yet,
to be sure, but as Mr.. Wanamaker says

with silk hat set jaunuly over its right
ear, its hands thrust into its trouser peck

"You bet"
While Mr. Wanamaker is glad that
there has been a change in the wind, he
cannot help regretting that the treasury
department found 1t necessary to turn
the clock back sixteen hours on the day
the new tariff bill was signed, in order to
catch all of the importations Of that day
under the new rates thereby adding $780,
600 to the funds Of the government. Mr..
Wanamaker is an importer. "What an
injustice cumming the clock back was) to
honest merchants, who sold their impor-
tations the day received at prices based
upon duties actually paid" says he.
THE government ought always to be a
fostering mother of business, and not
tyrannical and eXacting master"
However, there is no use Of crying over
spilled milk it is Wen 10 make the best of
a bad bargain. The Dingley bill is mot

it increases the cost of living, makes less

flaws in it.
Not only has the country been vouch-
safed the Dingley tariff bill, but also a
gold strike in the Klondike. These two
blessings may suffice to cure all Of the
ills from which the country is suffering.
What a wonderful thing it would be for
this nation and the entire globe if Provi-
dence opens up to US $4,000 900 of gold in
Alaska. 1t would settle the money ques-
ton for America" says Wanamaker. IF
our leaders can rise above personal con
siderauons, and act for the good Of the
whole people 1900 will dawn in a blaze
of glory"
There is, as Mr.. Wanamaker says, moth
ing pessimistic in this interview of his,
for his fellow republicans to find fault
full of optimism of the ultra. Mark Tap
ley sort.

A Good Case.

I'm on the warpath," declared the
young man who is yet in the first quarter
of his honeymoon, according to the Detroit
Free Press. 'If 1 get a judgment of less
than $1,000 against that tailor of mine I'll
appeal the case and so TO the end of the
road with him. There should be a special
statute aimed at such offenses as his"
What's your claim against him?"

night by express, without fail. l Impress

It is a very generally accepted fact that
street railways are important factors in
the growth of a city Since the substitu-
ton of electricity for horse power, they
have become one of the popular means of
recreation as well as conveyance. They
may also be considered part of the po-
lice protection of a city. since the con-
slant running of cars through the streets
places within call Of people living along
the line, in cases of great emergency, the
help of conductors and motormen, and al
so Of passengers on the cars, if necessary.
Then too, the cars supply the means of
safe conduct through the length and
breadth of the city for nurses, children
invalids and semi-helpless people. The
properly managed street railway of to-
day might almost be called a municipal
blessing. Street railways, when carefully
managed for the public good. should be
treated fairly and CONSIDERABLY by the
people and their representatives in coun-
ell. NO reasonable request from these
railway corporations should be denied
and such requests when granted, should
not be surrounded with embarrassing con-
ditions.
The people of Savannah, however
should carefully guard against mistakes
in granting all that the street railroads
ask; and when it is proposed to abandon
streets now occupied by their tracks. the
rights OF property owners living on such
streets should be well and wisely consid-
cred A railroad once laid upon a street
changes the character Of the thorough
fare by giving it facilities not enjoyed be-
fore. which induce people to build houses
and TO live in neighborhoods where, with
out the street railroad they would never
have thought of living While in some
instances it is possible that certain streets
can be benefited by removing the tracks
from them, il is usually the case that
those are not the streets which the rail-
road companies abandon.
at seems 10 be the determination Of the
railroad company to take up It's lines on
those streets in the suburbs or on the out
skirts where they are most needed for the
growth OF the city and the wants of the
people; and TO keep only such as win
make large earnings with which to pay its
big debt. Il will be well for the commit
tee Of the city council which has charge
of this matter to keep In view the future
growth Of the city, and 10 have AN eye al
so to what may be needed In time to
come by a competing railway, Now is the
time 10 arrange all defects in street rail-
way legislation, If there be any.

The monitor Puritan appears to have

$1,000. The battleship Maine had her turn

is which one viii be next? A little care
