Argentine Railroads.

In the Argentine Republic the services
of trains is appallingly irregular, chief
ly owing to the bad state Of the permn-
nent way, which, when once laid, is
left to take care of itself Tho perms-
nent way in some parts Of the line Is In
such dilapidated condition that al
most every train is thrown Off tho rails
This astounding fact IL contained In a
recent report of the railway concerned.
The rate Of travelling, too, is astonish-
ing. AT enc spot, on II go an you please
local line, no train ever travels faster
than az miles per hour One may vary
the mOnotony Of the journey by getting
out and taking "a quiet stroll along the
line, or stopping to pick up pretty flow
ers. There is no fear that the train will
catch you up. -Harper's Round Table.

Dresdsn's Newspaper.

The city Of Dresden owns daily pa
per, the Dresdener Anzeiger, which was
given to 1t by its late proprietor ON the
condition that all profits arising there
from should he spent upon the public
parks. This year large playground Of
nearly eight acres was purchased from
Prince George, the kings brother and
heir apparent, and 1t will be ready for
use this summer. The paper continues
TO hold the respect Of all citizens. for

broadcast spirit, and the power has new
err been employed to foster any school
Of opinions-social, political or reli-
gious.

account of the campaign for recogni-
ton:
LAS the voting power of the blacks is
so greatly in excess of the voting power
of the mulattoes we consider this dis
elimination not only unjust, but We
propose to make ourselves felt here
after at elections. During the last ad-
ministration we complained to Presi-
dent Cleveland. and at an audience
given to representatives of the blacks
he assured us that he had made an in
vestigation and would allow no further
discrimination on account of our color.
These half white niggers think they
own the earth. They put powder on
their faces to make them look more
like white folks, and use all sorts Of
lotions on their hair to take out the
kinks. because they think if they can do
that it will be easier for them to get

ARRESTS ON SUSPICION.

Every once in a while we hear OF
some innocent woman, who has stop
ped to inquire her way of passers-by
after dark, being arrested on suspicion
of immortality and locked up only to be
discharged when arraigned next morn
ing and it is found that there is abso-
lutely no proof against her. Being
given her freedom is not recompense for
the horrible night spent in jail or for
the aspersion cast upon her reputation
for a woman's reputation is so deli
cate thing that the breath OF suspicion
is sufficient to tarnish it.
The latest case of the kind comes
from st. Louis where an unoffending
country girl was arrested and thrown
into iail merely because. she asked a
man what line of cars she should take
to go to her place of employment
According to the published report Of
the case. the girl was guilty OF no Of
Tense She had no intention of wrong
doing She did what every person has
4 right TO do-asked her way-and on
mere suspicion two police officers ar
rested her and had her thrown into jail
under a charge of immortality
Such blunders on the part OF the
notice illustrate the danger to which IN
nocent women are subjected by recK-
lessness in the exercise of police power.
II is good thing to clear the streets OF
immoral characters. but better twenty
had women go free than that one inno-
cent woman be subjected to the outrage
of arrest on a charge of immoraiity'
That is objectionable.
Arrest on suspicion is too dangerous d
privilege to be exercised by any man OF
COT Of men. Women have a right to the
streets and to freedom of action on the
streets as long as they violate no law
There are thousands of working women
compelled TO be on the streets alone
after dark and they should neither be
molested nor subjected to the danger OF
arrest because some officer with more
zeal than discretion chooses to run
them in on suspicion. The police au-
thorities should see that mistakes OF
this kind do not occur.

Sound Money" needs sound sense IN
its editorial department What does it
refer to in speaking of the immense
popular majority recorded for SOUND
money last November" According TO
the returns McKinley's popular major
itv was less than a quarter of a million
in total vote of nearly 100000. His
plurality over Bryan was but little
over 100000. in spite of all the corrupt
and corrupting influences marshalled
on the gold side, and the unlimited
fraud. bribery, deception and BULLDOG
ing resorted to by Wall street to per-
petuate the gold standard. Against
these odds Mr.. Bryan battled single
handed and the result was virtually a
victory for bimetalism.
Since then the people have been MADE
fully aware of the gross fraud and de-
ceptiou practiced upon them ana at the
recent municipal elections in various
States in almost every one OF which
the money question was the sole issue
discussed during the campaign, the vote
of November was largely reversed all
along the line. Even the homes OF Nc
Kinlev and Hobart repudiated them
both most emphatically by reversing
their November verdict and going Dem
ocratic. Indiana but the other day held
its local elections and everywhere large
Democratic gains were recorded.
The Register is firmly convinced that
had the gold campaign been honestly
conducted last year Mr.. Bryan would
have been overwhelmingly elected Ana
in view of the very remarkable change
in the vote since then We feel most de-
cidedly right in asserting that the free
coinage party now constitutes an over
wbelming majority of the people. And
this majority is growing daily as the
people realize more and more clearly
the utter hollowness and falsity of
goldbug promises and pretensions and
that the single gold standard means
/ their ruin.

wears the Democratic party went on IN
season and out of season, met defeat
every four years with equanimity, but
stuck fast by their principles, whereas
if they were indeed an organized ap-

These little facts may be brought out
in view of the fact that there is on

for appointments in the consular SER
vice. These come from Republicans.
Of course they will protest there is no
organized appetite among them. They

But the facts are against them. The
Republican party is at all times the

with equal solemnity resolve that the

THE RAILWAYS AND THEIR WANTS

THE RAILWAYS AND THEIR WANTS.
In the matter of the rights and fran
chises asked for by the Wheeling and
Elm Grove Railway and the Suburban
Electric Co.. we flil to see why there
should be any hesitancy upon the part
of the authorities as to what course
they should pursue. The time has fully
come when the public, both within and
without the city. should have increased
transportation facilities and lower rates
of fare. and the present opportunity is
one which Council and the Board of
Commissioners should seize upon and
improve to the utmost, in the public in
terest
Grant the companies the rights they
ask, under proper restrictions and re-
curing suitable bonds for the fulfill
ment of their promises, and then let
the companies fight it out between
them. Let it be the survival of the fit
test as it certainly would be, since there
is not enough suburban business to
warrant the operation of both the w. &
E. G. and the Suburban Electric, fact
of which the gentlemen conducting
those enterprises must be well aware.
Give them the rights they ask, hold
ing them down strictly to their prom
ises to the people, and let them go
ahead. the one failing to carry out its
programme to forfeit all rights and
privileges.
Certainly there should De no discrim-
nation on the part of Council and the
Board of Commissioners in favor Of
either company Both have equal
rights and each should receive fair
treatment.
AS the matter stands, with two COM
panies bidding for the same privilege,
the authorities are in position to play
one against the other and thus secure
the best possible service at the earliest
possible time.
The course of Council and the Board
of Commissioners, it strikes us, is plain.
