1t is encouraging to observe that the attempt
to form college Mems Socialist Union in
Boston has come to grief through the unwilling
ness of college men to identify themselves with
it. That is a healthful sign which should be
taken to heart by those few college profess
sors who seek otherwise unattainable
toriety by playing at Socialism and Communism.
The college man. that Is, the man of brains and
education. should be the last of all men to
countenance Socialism That is partly because
he ought to have too much common sense to be
a Socialist. and partly because Socialism Is so
directly opposed to nearly all that college educa-
ton stands for and is intended to promote.

The first act of the new French Minister of
War is to prosecute Dreyfusard paper-the
in which NJ. lola published his famous
'J'accuser letter-for its attacks upon the army.
There is. however. no reason for jumping to the
conclusion that he is going to reverse the policy
of his distinguished predecessor and favor the
Jew baiters and military swashbucklers. His ac-
ton probably means that he intends to maintain
General de Galffet's wise policy of at
straining the army from improper conduct and
defending 1t from unwarranted attacks. The
Jews should not be baited; but neither should
the army. And 1t may be that some OF the more
extreme critics of the army are as unjust and
as much a menace to the republic the
extreme anti-Jewish propagandists. Modera-

THE WESTERN UNION
 WINS BIG LAWSUIT Several Millions of Dollars Were
 Involved ip Case DECISION VERY IMPORTANT If the Railway Cnnnanu Had Man
If the Railway Company Had Won There Would Have Been Much Trouble in the Future as to
 the Right of Way.

St. Paul, Minn., December 22-A suit inc voving several millions of dollars, the value of the telegraph lines along the route of the Great Northern Railway from St Paul to the Pacific coast, was decided late this afternoon by Judge Lochren in the United States District Court in favor of the defendant ,the Western Union Telegraph Company Its importance, however was not alone in the amount of money involvedI for 1t was the general understanding that should the railway company have won, all the great railway systems of the country would at the expira ton of their contracts with the Western Union Telegraph Compa- ny, have claimed the ownership of the tell egraph lines along their right of way and either have operated them independently or have formed a consolidation which have been a strong competitor in the tele- graph field. Contracts had been entered into between the rail company and the telegraph company in 1879 and again in 1SS2 by which, among other things, the tele- graph company was to supply wires, poles, etc., and the railroad company to furnish transportation and labor for the construc- ton of the lines and the railway company to furnish the operators. The case turned upon the construction of these contracts, The plaintiff insisted that the defendant company had no ownership in the telegraph lines except an interest as a joint owner, and asked that the defendant be obliged to accept the value thereof and rennquish the lines to the Great Northern Company On the other hand the telegraph company claimed to have a clear and unmistakable title to the property in question through the contracts it had acquired by reason of it's absorption of the Northwestern Com pany.
 The suit had been pending since 1887.
 s,,ler hold hat rights narties were the same at the expiration Of the contracts as they were during the ope- ration of the contracts. The court allowed no costs in the case for either side.

Wohl, Sam Sterne and I. Schwarx as appraisers to value the stock.
 Last night as MT. Hugh Eskridge was going to his home, situated about three miles for this city and adjacent to the Southern Railroad track, he notices two dry goods boxes in an open field near his house. A closer inspection revealed an- other box, and all three proved to be fult of hats and were marked for J. c. Stewart and Company of Jackson, Ala. MT.
