Cost To the Trolley Companies.
The following letter was received by
the Street and Water Board, at their
meeting, yesterday
ssGentlemen-Acting under verbal in
structions received by your Board, di-
recting me to ascertain the actual value
Of water necessary for s~prinkling the
streets occupied by the Trolley Company.
I beg to advertise that I have made an
Investigation and learn that the cost of
furnishing water. to said companies by
the city will be six cents per lineal mile.
It would be necessary to sprinkle each
line at least twice a day. which would
double the expense. There are about
fwenty-four miles of roadway, which
would require sprinkling. The cost. there
fore. to the Trolley Company, If they
agree to pay for the water at the same
Price as purchased by the city, would be
less than s. per day.
Some portions of the lines would re-
nuire no ~sprinkling, while others would
need sprinkling oftener than twice a day.
Respectfully,
C. VAN KEUREN,
Chief Engineer.

The Head of the Family" the comedy
which William H. Crane is to present at
the Academy of Music on Saturday night,
had its first production early last De-
cember at the Knickerbocker Theatre in
New York. 1t is the work of Clyde Fitch
and Leo Ditrichstein and is an adapta-
ton of the we'll known German comedy,
"Hasenmann's Toechters,' by LArrongei.
In transferring it to an American atmos-
phere the adapters are said to have pre-
served all of the original humor of the
play, and to have added to it one scene

A New proteotioni.t Mares Nest.

The New York "Sun'' and the Philadel-
nhia Press are harping on a new string
by which they think they can hold to-
xether the crumbling fabric of protection.
They rave discovered that English people
in England prefer to buy English made
goods, that. in fact, they will not pur-
chase foreign goods when they can get
home products, and that the great dim
Guilty which foreign statesmen nave 10
face in England is the unvarying reply
In -their approaches, "Why we make that
ourselves in England, why should we buy
1t from American"
1t is rather amusing to see this "argu-
ment'' trotted out at a time when we are
shipping locomotives to England. literally
by the gross. But we will let that pass,
and merely consider the British attitude
as the ..Sun', and Press" represent 1t,
at its par value and see what it means.
r. seems to us to be an overwhelming
argument in favor of free trade.
First of all, the Englishman can arord
10 buy English made goods because he
knows that the competition of the whole
world, implied in free trade. compeis MS
own manufacturers to produce the best
possible commodities and to sell them at
the lowest possible price. This is the only
way in which the English manufacturer
holds his market or can hold it. TIL
proof is that when, as in the case OF
locomotives, the buyer can do better
abroad. he buys abroad without the
slightest hesitation ON patriotic or any
other grounds. Indeed. it is a notable
fact that practically all the cheaper class
Of ioinery used in England, such as cheap
furniture, door and window shades ana
the like, is made in Norway and imported
by the shiplead into the British Islands.
In Its secondary meaning, thee conditions
now prevailing in England prove the pos
sibility OF building up manufactures equal
to any in the world in quality and cheap
HESS, Q1aCi q 4ACO az
the conditions in our own country show
the inability of a high tariff to produce
similar results. If the Englishman,
under a free trade system can snap his
fingers at the world and buy only do
mestic products, assuredly he is better
off than we are, who. with all our pro-
lection, are obliged to rely upon Europe
Tor first class products, and for the fun
value of our money in fully two-thirds OF
the manufactured articles that we use.
Nothing can help us to get over or
around the fact that free trade is a sue
cess in England, that England has be-
come great through free trade. Neither
can we get over or around the other fact
that protection is a failure with us, and
tina we rave grown great and prosperous
I'm spite Of 1t.
If we could get rid of our tariff incubus
tomorrow, and with it destroy all that rs
harmful in our trusts, W. might enter
upon a period of real and industrial COM
merciaI greatness such as we can never
hope for while we work with our arms
and wings tied.

The dismissal Of the case against no
land d. Molineux by the New York Grand
Jury should be a lesson to INSCRIPTIONS
prosecutors. The meaning of 1t is that the
DeopIe win never tolerate the inquisitor-
fal and arbitrary methods by which the
District Attorney proceeded against this
defendant. In truth there is much ground
for suspicion against Molineux, though
nothing amounting to proof has appeared
III the papers, and if the case had been l-
1a1ly and temporarily conducted 1t is
more than likely that a valid indictment
would have been found, and he would
have had to stand trial.
But the trickery by which the Districl
Attorney tried to make Molineux furn-
iSh the evidence to hold himself, was a
gross violation Of the spirit il not Of the
letter Of the common law. and the attacks
made upon Mrs. Molineux. who Is nor
even remotely suspected OF the poisoning,
ware so monstrous that they aroused
hostility to the prosecution In every one
xvho has any regard for law and personal
aibertv. To this feeling Of revolt, IT Is
needless to say, the atrocious course o.

rules and regulations committee with
instructions to look UP the law govern
ing such matters.
Arbor day will be observed on May
9: the schools will be dismissed for that
day in order to give the teachers and
pupils an opportunity TO plant quakinS
asps and rose bushes. Last year the
teachers did not plant any trees. Many
of them joined in the excursion to Short
Line park. They built camp fires and
burned off a small patch of trees on
the Big Hole river. 1t was almost a
serious forest fire. This year they won t
go to the park; they will plant trees at
home.
The schools will close for the term On
June 2. as announced last week. The
high school committee was instructed to
secure the Grand opera house for the
afternoon of Friday, June ?, for holding
the graduating exercises. A new plan
was adopted. Instead of a class of 81
members delivering orations in one aft
ernoon they will be delivered at the
rate of about three day until the pro-
gramme is exhausted. The closing hours
of the last remaining days of the term
will be devoted to delivering the ora
tons. The exercises at the opera house
will be the address by President Mueller
OF the SchO0l Doafu, the NdleulctulS ,,
presentation of diplomas, music, etc.
Next week the board will select
corps of teachers and a city superin-
tendent. 1t is understood that there
will be no changes in the present corps
and that Mr. Hendricks, superntend-
ent, will be reelected. All of the teach
ers except two have applied for posi-
tics. Two teachers will be appointed
to teach the Basin gulch and Blacktail
schools this summer. The schools will
open next Monday. The teachers COM
mittee was empowered to select the
teachers in the meantime.
Bills amounting to 1919 and the jani-
tors pay roll for April, $780, were aud
tied and ordered paid.
Mr.. Whitesde said last night that he
would resume work at the Atlantic
avenue school house 'as soon as the
board appointed an architect.

A GERMAN VICTORY.
Is the Cessation of Hostilities in the
Samoan Islands.

Wellington. n. H.. May 2--Advices from
Samoa Indicate that the instructions re-
ceived from the powers to cease hostiities
make the situation in the islands very Sc
rious, as the rebels hold the main food
supplies and are again near the munich
palty of Apia. The correspondent of
Reuters news agency thinks it is evident
that the home authorities have misunder-
stood the situation in Samoa.
The Germans and rebels are already
iublant and claim victory over the Brit
ish and American forces. The correspond
ent says that unless the rebels are made
to submit the difficulties will remain un-
solved. The white people in the outskirts
of the city are at the mercy of the reb-
els The American vice consuls store at
Falifa was looted last week while the
German store adjoining was left un-
touched.
British and American residents all
strongly condemn the actions of the pow
ers in ordering a cessation of hostilties
at this stage.
Two days after the battle at Vailima.
Lieutenant R. A. Gaunt of the British
ship Porpoise marched his brigade into
Vailima unopposed and was followed by
a company of British blue jackets under
Captain Sturdee and Lieutenant Cave.
An inspection of the battlefield shows
that the defenses erected by the rebels
near the home of the late Robert Louis
Stevenson We're strong and well planned.
The loss sustained by the rebels it is evil
dent is much greater than was at first
supposed.
The main section OF Mataafa's followers
who were engaged in the defense of Vail
ina retreated westward to Lulukaloenga,
where they lay in wait for friendles. Or
ders had been given them to capture Lie
tenant Gaunt's head. The rebels were
also anxious to secure the superior weap-
onS with which his brigade is armed.
1t is rumored that 10 boats filled with
armed rebels are approaching from the
east. The town appears to be safe.
