Vanderbilts and others possessing many
millions each are stockholders, and
such men do not admit many associates

publican party has never made more
mocracy in the State than was made
this campaign year. Missouri has al
ways been regarded by the Republicans
as hopelessly Democratic. On this ac-
count the national committee has de-
clined heretofore to furnish funds 10
carry on the campaign. This year for
some reason a portion of the barrel
was apportioned to Missouri and the
resistance was stronger in proportion
TO the amount furnished. This in
fiuence it was necessary to overcome,
but the manner in which Mr.. Seibert
checkma.ed all Republican moves is a
qualification to the members of his
party and adds TO the high esteem in
which he is and has always been held
by the Democracy of Missouri.
Ordinarily the election of the State
sponsible Cor. This year the move
ment of the Republicans to capture the
Legislature by carrying the close couu-
ties added new burdens to the duties
of Mr.. Seibert. How he has discharged
them the increased Democratic major
ity in the Forty-first General Assembly
attests. The Importance of a strenuous
fight in all close counties was seen at
the beginning of the campaign and the
party in these sections was thoroughly
organized. Only in two or three cases
did Democracy lose.
AT the conclusion of his term the
first of January, Mr.. Seibert will retire
from office. He has crowned his record
as an able, fearless official with this
last cap stone of invaluable service TO
his party. The Democracy of Missouri
owes debt to the State Chairman.
Every Democrat appreciates it and
holds him in grateful remembrance

Who votes de ticket efery time,
Whose heart is full of Charity
For all the loafers riding him,
Who brag of 'sour Prosperity"
If my old mule had half de sense

He'd lift his legs, and take good aim,
Und kick my damn brains oud.

"Und git oud on de grass"

mon experience. No such radical doc
trine has ever been before put forward
by any responsible agency. If it rep
resents really a thoughtful and unbiased
conclusion arrived at by the commits
sioners one of two things must be true,
either the every effort put forward
must have been hopelessly misdirected,
or else the people of this state are being
ground to earth by an insupportable tyr
amy in the form of the existing ad-
ministration of its railroad systems.
Which of these two Conditions is the
most likely may safely be left to the
intelligence of the reader to determine
Had the commissioners left themselves
any escape from the radicansm and unrea-
son of this position, the surprise with
which their attitude must be regarded
might be less. But they have
not. They follow up this strange
conclusion by saying that where
private interest in the railroad and
the public rights, according to their con-
ception of such rights, clash, private
property
That is, we presume, to say that where
what they choose to regard as the public
rights cannot be realized consistently with
a reasonable return on the capital, labor
and administrative ability invested in the
conduct of given railroad, all these
things must go to the wall, and the pub
lie be given their rights" willy-nilly.
The commissioners tell us they see no
no escape, they want the public to take
the roads and run them themselves,
whether at a loss or a profit matters not,
so long as the rights of the public are
assured. Private property interests are,
of course, accordingly "subordinated,"
and the ideas of the outgoing railroad
commissioners put into operation. All
this will be done, strange to say, accord
ing to this report. without the result prov
ing at all burdensome to the private prop
erty interests aforesaid.
Nothing short of the Importance to
every industry of the state of the sub
ject matter of the commissioners report
would justify giving serious thought to
such recommendation at this time. 1t is
really outside the realm of public discus
sion; and it's inherent want of serious
significance could have been attested in
no more convincing manner than it has
been by the verdict which the people Of
the state in the last election reached on
the subject of the fitness for such a posi-
ton as that of railroad commissioner of
certain of the men whose names are at
tachcd to the precious recommendation.

THE ARcHBIsHop,s JUB1LEU.

There is no event touching the life or
conduct of Archbishop Ireland but nos
sesses universal interest to his friends
and fellow citizens throughout the North
west, as we'll as in the city of St Paul.
He has in his lifetime accomplished great
good both as a priest and a civilian. In
almost every department of social and
ethical concern his influence and example
have operated greatly to the general
coed. No movement designed for the
promotion of higher ideals in public or
private relationships which has been in
progress among the American people dur
ing the years of his active life, from the
promotion of temperance to the purifica-
ton and enoblement of public life. but
has had his sanction and often his activa
cooperation.
The members of Archbishop Ireland's
religious communion have a pride in his
life which is all their own. They have
watched his progress from the sphere of
jealous priest officiating in struggling
ton to that of one Of the leading ore
lates of his church, honored at home and
esteemed abroad as it is the lot of but
few of his contemporaries in any walk
of life to be esteemed
1t is quite natural, then. that the COM
ing celebration of the twenty-fifth ami
versary of his elevation to the episcopate
should possess peculiar interest to the
members Of the Catholic church through
out the Northwest. In its celebration the
archbishop's non-CathoIc fellow citizens
will not be called on to take any part;
but they will none the less look upon the
occasion as one which all good men who
know Archbishop Ireland's life must re-
gard with qualification and pleasure.
Differing from the archbishop in many
respects in the views which are identified
with him on many questions of general
interest, the G 10 b e unreservedly and
cordially entertains the hope and expec-
tation that still higher honors are re-
served for him in his sacred calling, and
that he may be spared for many years to
the station in which he has been an
ornament of his church, an inspiration to
the ministry of that church, and a most
benefcent influence on the moral and re-
ligious progress of his time.

AMERICAN COAL IN GERMANY.


When Germany determined to become
a manufacturing nation, to rival England
and the United States in the markets of
the world, it overlooked one essential fac
tor-coal. Without water power manu-
featuring people must depend on coal for
the motive power. Germany counted on
the exhaustless supply of British coal to
feed her furnaces. Here was the weak
point in the industrial structure of the
new Germany.
At the height of her industrial great
ness; with her cities filed with factories
employing the best skilled labor of the
world; with the stamp MADE in Ger
many appearing in every corner of the
globe, Germany finds herself up against a
coal famine-a scarcity of fuel which is
bound to handicap her in the race for the
markets of the world. The British coal
fields are giving out-that is, the cheap
coal is becoming scarce There is an
abundant supply, but at such depth as
to render it's cost out of the reach of the
German manufacturer.
In this dilemma there are but two fields
to draw from, the United States and Rus
sia The coal fields of Russia are not yet
developed; neither are the means OF
transportation. The coal to keep up the
fires of German enterprise, fer some
years, must come from the United States.
This is hopeful condition. Germany,
dependent on the United States for the
very force to run her industries, may be
more considerate in dealing with Ameri-
can exports. 1t will also furnish an out
let for the overproduction of our mines,
prevent strikes and help to eliminate the
trust tendency. The United States can
furnish coal cheaper than it can be fur
nished by England only by reason of the
ease with which it is mined-Amerlcan al
lying near the surface The time is not
far distant when, with American machin-
cry, will go the force to run it-American
coal.

Meat of Subsidy Eli.

Croohston Daily Times.
There are few of the Times readers
who have the patience to wade through
the text of the Hanna-Payne ship sub
sldy Dill to ascertain what it really pro-
Vides for. Condensed briefly, its purpose
is to stimulate domestic shipbuiIding. 1t
approprfates $9,000G0o annually to be paid
10 owners OF vessels complying with pre-.
scribed conditions. 1t bases the amount
OIL subsidy to be paid upon the tonnage Of
the vessel and the miles sailed 1t dis
eliminates between speeds of sal ne.
Ships now built will get the subsidy for
ten years; those built hereafter will get
it for twenty years. Each American yes
sci sailing outward 1850 nautical miles
gets for each 100 miles OF the round trim
I12 cents ton, not of freight carried
put on her displacement Each addltionaT
1OO miles, not exceeding sixteen, earns a
cent ton The faster vessels get more
Ihose OF 2,e0O tons or more, sailing twelve
to fourteen knots, get half a cent a tom
the subsidy increasing by grades, Accord
ing 10 speed, until the ship sailing twenty
one knots speed and of 1900 tons ulS-
ward, gets 2.3 cents a ton. A ten-knot
ship, sailing 1900 miles, would be pa;d
$500; a 5ifteen-knCt would get S14l. $50
Tor 63,O0G-mlle run, and a tWenty-knot,
sailing $500 miles would be given S3O4 go
If Americans owning foreign-bu ships
wish to get share of the subsidy they
must have their ships registered a.-.d
agree to build i'll domestic yards an equal
number. All subsidized ships must carry
mails free and be subject to draft as aux
liiary cruisers or transports, such service;
to be of course amply compensated. as
were the st. Paul and City of Paris dur,
ing the Spanish war. Boiled down, the
proposition is to pay $9GO3,CG0 a year to
induce men to engage in building SHIPS
and sailing them.
