Lesle's Weekly raises a point which is
of interest to newspapers in all sections
of the country. 1t is with regard to ad-
vertisements in street cars. The state
ment is made that the street car adver-
Using in this country amounts to not less
than 100000 per year. Now, by what
right do the street car companies engage
in this line of business? Do they pay a
privilege tax upon their advertising
schemes? Have they the right under their
charters to carry on the business of pub
fishing advertisements in their cars? The
franchises of the street railway companies
are given for transportation purposes
solely, and 1t is the opinion of good law
yers according to Leslie's Weekly, that
the advertising feature is neither equita-
BILE nor legal. The street railway COM
pany goes outside of its legitimate field
when 1t enters into competition with the
newspapers in the publication of adver-
tisements.

MIR. Croker's Plans.

Mr.. Croker, the Tammany leader. is
talked about almost as much as Speaker
Reed. One day, it is said that his purpose
is to make himself master of the Demo-
cratic party of New York state, as he
is of the Democratic party of New York
city with the views of controlling the next
national convention of the Democratic
party. Another day it is declared that his
aim Is to have elected next fall a Demo-
cratic legislature which would make him
United States senator to Succeed Senator
Murphy.
The fact is, Mr.. Croker keeps his own
counsel in respect to his plans. If he has
an ambition to hold a great office, like
not let the fact be known unless he sue
ceeds in getting sufficient power to crafty
it.
1t now looks as if he intended to try
to play a great role in politics during
the next three or four years. He is alb
solutely master of the greatest city of the
Countrywide second city in the world-and
there are signs that his purpose is to take
a hand in national politics. Whether he
aims at getting a great office or only 10
be the power behind the throne is I'M
known, but il is certain that he is a grow
ing figure in the world of politics. And
his political acts and utterances are given
steadily increasing attention.

If a doctor is entitled to so much pay per
visit when he-is needed, should he be re-
quired to pay so much per visit if he calls
when he Is not needed and is not expect
ed? A New York state court has such a
question before it. A young doctor sued
a young lady for bill for 500 for profess
sional services. She filed a cross bill in
which she denied that she owed the doctor
any such amount, but alleged that he was
in debt to her 800 for taking up her time
from her household duties by making calls
which were unnecessary and unexpected.
Evidently the young lady regards her ser
vices as an entertainer as more valuable
than those of the doctor as a physician.

sooner it begins business the better 1t
is said that "Parson" Davies, Billy
Brady and a few other managers are 60
ing to form trust of prize fighters. The
trust will first take up the heavyweights.
Corbett, who has retired, and Fitzsim-
mons, who has said he will not fight any
more, are to be left out of the deal, and
the younger element of fighters, including
kid" Mccoy and others, will be matched
by the trust, to fight wherever the largest
purses can be raised. If the trust will
squelch Jim" and Bob" and cut down
the number of prize fights. it will be
good thing.

A Mnine Rear Story.

The cook at a lumber camp near Great
Pond. Me. says the Chicago Chornicle,
discovered a bear one afternoon last month
in the act of tanning his head into the
top of the uncovered bean pot in quest OF
baked beans. When the bear heard the
cooks steps he lifted his head and by so
doing brought the wire bail of the pot
across the back of his neck. The cook
yelled, and the bear, tottering under the
weight of nearly barrel of baked beans
suspended from his neck, -retreated up the
woods road in the direction of the back
lot. Though the bear could make good pro-
gress with his load, he had considerable
difficulty in finding his way, because the
bean pot obstructed his vision If he held
his head high enough to keep the pot from
dragging it was in front of his eyes, and
if he allowed the pot to drag his progress
was so slow that the cook was liable to
overtake him.
The cook had mana ged to discharge all
the cartridges in a repeating rifle without
effect and the bear managed to keep in the
road for half mile, when the couple met
the leading bark team coming out of the
woods on the last turn. Nobody has yet
been able to train a horse so it will not be
scared by bear. and hear was a big bear
ornamented as to his neck with a huge
bean pot, and behind the bear was a bear
headed and frantic cook yelling as loud
as his lungs would allow. The front horses
reared twice and turned sharp to the off
side of the road, splitting two and a half
cords of bark across the sled track While
the teamster was trying to untangie his
horses the second load came down the hill,
followed in quick succession by a third
and a fourth. Every team acted as badly
as it could, and while the cook was plead
ing for somebody to help him kill the bear,
and the teamsters were swearing about
their horses, the bear got away, earring
the pot of beans along

The Great Question.
Washington Letter in Chicago Record
Qnd).

Assistant Secretary Roosevelt says that
the longest. the most interesting, the most
with any representative Of the legislative
branch of the government since he has
been in the navy department was when
one senator and three congressman spent
the better part of two working days with
him on an earth-shaking question not of
armor nor of ships, nor of ordnance, nor
of the defenseless condition of the United
States, but whether or not the command
ant of a navy yard had the right to pro-
mote a man from a $1,000 to a Sl4OO posi-
ton without consulting the senators and
representatives from his state.
The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1898-02-15

If we understand the matter correctly, 1t
is the purpose of the navy department to
keep a number of war vessels in Southern
Waters-off the coasts of Georgia and
Fiorida-from this time onward In that
case, as matter of course the ships will
have to be supplied with coal; and there
Is no better place for a coaling station than
Tybee roads. There is direct communica-
ton between this port and the coal fields,
and supplies could be handled quickly and
economically. There was not long ago
some talk of erecting a coaling station at
Tybee. The matter should not be allow
ed to drop.

1t is reported from Ottawa that the Do

the construction of navy as an auXil-

appropriation will be asked for that pur-
pose when Parliament meets. The Ameri-

in this another indication of Great Brit

statesman from Illinois, had returned
home after his intlammatory speech in the
Senate on Cuba, Wednesday, his residence
Immediately burst into flames. No alarm

A week or so ago we printed a poem en-
titled. Planting Trees" which was re-
cited by ex-secretary of Agriculture Ster-
ling Morton during the course of a re-
cent speech. It was supposed by the re-
porters of the speech that the poem was
original. This, however, is denied by a
preacher of Syracuse, N. Y, who says Il
was written by Henry Abbey and publish
ed three years ago under a different til
tie.

pensary was in operation in a certain

body was that the county in question
be exempted from the operations of the
law, and il was accepted. Judging from
the rate of progress which the county
made in buying whisky, the exemption
came in the nick of time, or before many
years the landscape would have been
flooded with the stuff.
