An interesting refunding operation is now
in progress by the Panhandle Company. In
the company's list of outstanding bonds
several loans, mostly for small amounts,
maturing at intervals between next year
and 1906 The most considerable item is the
first consolidated per cent. mortgage of the
old Pitts5urg. Cincinnati & St. Louis Com
pany. issued in 1868 and due Aug. ]. 1900.
The amount of these bonds is s.. S63 900. The
holders have now an opportunity to take in
exchange consolidated mortgage bonds of
the present Panhandle Company at 31z per
cent, with fifty years TO run. BY converting
the present S. s63. coo of per cents. into 3lzs.
the annual saving in interest charges will
be $4,000. Another lot Of sevens, amounting
to 81. 900. will mature i'm 1904.
The Panhandle 3lzs are valued at 101. This
high estimate. of course. indicates that the
company's credit is high. and that the sur
plus income available for the payment Of in
terest on the bonds is large. The latter fact
is. in great measure. naturally the cause of
the former. but not the only cause. The
credit of a railroad company depends not
only upon its resources. but also upon the
character of the management. In this in
stance the management appears to be di-
rected consistently toward the improvement
and upbuilding of the property. The small
est balance shown by the Panhandle in the
last five years after all interest payments
was SOL, 0oo. in 1896. The extraordinary ap-
preparations of that year for improvements
amounted to $156,0O0. The largest balance
was Sl,3l6,OOO, in 1897. In that year extraordi-
nary appropriations of $4,000 were made.
10 say nothing of the increasing profit and
loss surplus, the expenditures from the in
come OF the last three years that the Pan
nandle directors themselves speak of as
extraordinary" have amounted to 81. 100 600.
Inis is the most conspicuous item in the
should have been distributed. The company
seems 10 have large run of business this
year In the five months from January to
about $4,000, and net $4,000.

Tell the world your story;
Thrice in hearts blood dipped before
They called your name Old Glory.
Stream, Old Glory. bear your stars
High among the seven:
Stream a watchfire on the dark
And make a sign in heaven!
Mighty harvests gid your plains.
Mighty rivers bear them.
Everywhere you fly you bid
All the hungry share them:
Blooms the wilderness for you,
Plenty follows after.
Underneath your shadow go
Peace and love and laughter.
When from sky to sky you float,
Far in wide savannas.
Vast horizons lost In light
Answer with hosannas.
Symbol of unmeasured power.
Blessed promise sealing.
All your hills are hills Of God.
And all your founts are healing!
Still TO those the wronged of earth
Sanctuary render:
For hope and home and heaven they zee

WHAT REAsoNINGl

Referring to the implied charge by
a well known Judge OF the Supreme
Court, that the Tribune Is guilty Of
falschood. In making improved and un-
proyable charges against the Nor
mon" authorities, that paper in re-
but,al offers the alleged argument
that. I'VE could make no such charge
unless 1t was true. without being over
whelmed 10y libel suits"
The force Of this kind OF reasoning
viii be easily felt, when It is remem-
bered that the Tribune published a
long list Of names Of persons whom 1t
accused OF polygamy or polygamou5
relations, which proved to be gross
libel upon them without the slightest
excuse for its publication, and yet not
a single libel suit was entered against
that paper.
II a criminal charge Of libel had
been entered ana pressed for every
scandalous attack upon individuals,
without cause, made by that sheet, 1t
would take several ordinary lives to
serve out the penalties that might be
imposed under the laws against libel
and SANDER.
The Trlbune's reasoning is as faulty
and unreliable as its reckless accusa-
tions, perpetually repeated, against the
Mormon" authorities and the Nor
mon people.

When the war in South Africa began,
the British government paid the usual
allowances for families OF soldiers-in
the case Of prlvaies fourpence per day
for wives and a penny for each child
As the prospect Of long war makes
the expense heavy, the government has
made an order that after January LIST
this allowance comes from the soldiers
pay. For instance II private has a
wife and six children, the amount re-
talned is tenpence dally,or about six dol
lars a month, and under the new order Is
virtually a reduction OF that amount IN
his wages. The carrying into effect OF
such an order Is sure to have depfess'
Ing influence on the men with families.
II would have been better never TO have
paid the amount than to have had 60
cut of the allowance.

One OF the English papers comment
ing upon the Presidents message ex-
presses the opinion that its language
with regard to England would have
transcribed friendship but for Mr..
Chamberlains indlscretlon at Leicester.
This criticism Of Mr.. Chamberlain over
the shoulders Of President Mckinley Is
simply an illustration Of the average
British editors inability to understand
American ways. The Presidents mes
sage is not a stump speech addressed 10
a caucus. II Is a communication from
the executive to the legislature, a state
paper, whose language must be guarded,
an lncontrovertible statement Of facts.
To all foreign powers President Mckin-
ley's language was courteous, To have
exceeded this limit would have been to
fall into effusiveness.

MASTERS IN BLACK ART.

The Kansas City Star, and a few 9TH
er papers, tell their readers that there
Is no crusade In this country against
any members Of a Church, except In so
far as they are law-breakers, This
only proves that they know absolutely
nothing about the origin, or the origina-
tors OF that crusade
There is a striking resemblance be-
tween the tactics Of those engaged
against ''Mormonism" and the early cru
saders against the Christian faith. The
lnsugators Of the movement that led
to the tragedy Of Calvary were con-
fronted on one hand with a people zeal
Gus for their religion and on the other
hand with a liberal government that
cared nothing for religious oontrover-
sizes To succeed they found 1t neces-
sary to formulate a double charge.
