Mothers Love is Diff
ferent.

A young married woman said
to her mother-in-1aw: Mother,
| wonder if you love your son
George as l love him as a hus-
band? 1t seems to me impossi-
BILE. u" "Well, Alice, let me show
you the difference in our affec-
tiou for George. You love him
because he is really lovable and
loves you and is kind and affec-
tomato, and his thoughtful atten-
ton anticipates all your wants.
But let him cease to be loving and
affectionate, and become cold and
Indifferent, neglecting you and
become even abusive and violent,
and let him throw away his man
hood and go into the mlre of i'm
morality and drunkenness. Then
| should not be surprised to see
you sue for divorce. But George
might neglect me and treat me
unkindly, and assault me with
violence and stagger into the gut
ter. Nevertheless, before bind
ing up my wounds, l would go to
George and help him up and wipe
the slime from his cheek and kiss
him, and put my arms around
him and whatever others might
say or think of him, l would still
caress him as my own darling
son. That, Alice, is perhaps the
difference between your love and
mine for George.

Voting on Dining Cars

The Pennsylvania Railroad
Company is endeavoring to as
certain which plan of operating
Dining Cars is most satisfactory
to the travelling public; whether
the old one dollar per meal plan
or the more modern Cafe A
La Carte plan, by having the
prtrons of its Dining Cars, which
are now operated on the old plan,
exptess their preferences by bal
lot. Several persons who recently
visited Philadelphia, travelling
via the Queen & Crescent Route
which has an excellent Cafe Din
ing Car System, state that their
observation indicates that a ma
iority of the votes cast will be III
favor of the A La Carte plan.

will Ed Wolcott have the supreme
assurance to assure the silver forces

played this scheme to cover his
falsity to silver, relying for back

An admirable answer to the pie

ing as to the means of William
Jennings Bryan's support Is given
by the great newspaper eorrespon>
dent, Creelman. About IS, 900 per
year is earned by Mr.. Bryan as a
lecturer, and as he has no debts to
be paid by his friends, as William
Mckinley had, he readily supports
his family and supplies his small

Eminent fnanciers and publicists

Eminent fnanciers and publicists
charge India's appalling famine to
the closing Of the Indian mints. 1t
is not lack OF food stuffs, but more
money to purchase it with, which
has caused the famine. Silver has
been the peoples moneyfor genera
tions in India. gold is the money
Of the creditor. The latter metal
has accumulated in the hands oi
the wealthy and the poor starve.
The decadence of the Roman em>
pire was caused by the concentra-
ton of wealth. 1t is not improb-
able by any means that India could
follow Roman decadence, the fam@
inc being the forerunner.

ARE AFTER THE HEALERs
Post Office Department Will Not
Allow Them to Use the
Mails.

New York, May 5.-A special
to the world from Washington
says:
Divine healers have come IN
der the ban of the postofice de-
partment and in a few days an
order will be issued debarring
them from the use of the mails.
The department has been gath
ering information regarding their
methods for month and it is
now SO we'll conceded that their
business is illegitimate that it is
the purpose to institute general
raid.
The matter was first brought
to the attention of the depart
ment by complaints from Nevada,
Missouri, where Weltmer, a 30
called divine healer conducting
his business by mail, sndeavored
to collect payment for continuing
to treat patient after the patient
was dead. Further investigation
showed that he had attempted on
several instances, although of
course, he was not aware that the
subject of his "absent treatment"
had succumbed to disease.
Prof. A. S. Weltmer is presi-
dent of the American School of
Magnetic Healing which is locat-
ed in Nevada, Missouri, and or
ganized under the laws of that
state. He claims to have treated
$4,000 patients without personal
consultation and to have cured
all but twelve.
The postal authorities have no.
titled the officials of the Nevada
school to appear on May IL and
submit arguments to show why a
fraud order should not be issued
against them.

WILL DO JUSTICE.

of council, will do justice to En>
gineer Crosby, however much they
may be bounded to do him injus
tice by nincompoops, political
truckers and personal and political
enemies of the gentleman.
The majority Of the councilmanic
board are men Of businese, whose
integrity in business life is and has
been unimpeachable. While to a
degree under obligations in polls
tical sense to some men who have
acted in politics in their behalf,
their larger obligation is to do
right.
A reliable business man has no
hesitation in rendering judgment
upon the right or wrong of busi-
ness transaction, where his own
business is concerned, even though
the judgment may be adverse to
his own profit. If his acts are thus
guided in his own behalf, it is to be
presumed beyond question that
in rendering correct and truthful
judgment where the interests OF the
city are at stake he will do likewise.
Ifthe contract is legal, it is the
best possible reason why Mr..
Crosby should be treated justly.
If the contract be illegal, per>
sonal denunciation will avail noth>
ing, the law will enforce the rights
of the city.
If the payment is excessive, it is
a matter easily proven by testi-
mony, but cannot be proven sins
ply by denunciation, personal and
public.
City Attorney Staley is most
capable of determining the validity
of the contract between the city and
Mr.. Crosby. Mr.. Staley has the
record before him. He will not say
Mr.. Crosby's contract is invalid or
illegal, if it is not, because Mr..
Staley has regard for his profess
sional reputation, before any other
consideration, be it personal or
political.
To simply force matters with Mr..
Crosby is admittedly unfair. 1t
cannot tail to embarass the progress
of the important work now in
course of construction. AS he has
begun the work, outlined the plans,
made the surveys, calculations,
ground plans and drawings on
work now finished, it would jeop>
ardize the whole work to displace
him, without securing the grades,
drawings, etc, under which the
work has been done.
1t is not for Mr.. Crosby's sake
particularly that the people appeal
to council to act slowly and justly
but for the sake Of the work under
construction, for the welfare OF the
city's interests, which must be ad-
mitted are unquestionably antago>
nized by harrassment at this stage
Of the work.
1t would satisfy the people great
ly, possibly benefit the city i'm
measurably. if the testimony o.
some engineer, other than the
knowa partisans Of either side in
this matter, would state openly
whether six per cent. on contract
price is excessive considering the
magnitude Of the work.

ing elections would find him
"has been," being the most proml-
nent and most wished for consum-
nation Of their hopes. That he is
greater, stronger, more beloved
than ever startles and annoys them
and upsets the predictions OF their
most sanguine and astute leaders.
A Standard Oil magnate asserted
to Danish envoy, attempting to
negotiate the sale Of the Danish
West Indies, that he controlled the
votes OF twenty. six U. S. senators.
This story seems improbable.
However, the oil magnate efectual>
ly blocked the purchase of the
islands, proving his boast. If the
government is so utterly in the
control of the oil trust, it might be
better to dipose of the country
entirely.

as would make too plain the needlessness
of continued military occupation.
1t is easy to assume too much regard
ing the significance of present conditions
in China. Anything like a permanent
disagreement would necessarily carry
with it the most serious trouble. Con-
tinued peace would be made impossible.
The restraints which have held the oppos-
Ing national interests of the world from
strife-those of Russia and England;
those of Germany and France. for in
stance-cannot longer be maintained; and
the overwhelming catastrophe which SO
many Of the best students of European
politics have been anticipating for some
years past will descend upon humanity
if it is found that no adjustment can be
made OF the conflicting interests in China
The G l o b has expressed the belief
that this consideration of itself has oper-
ated thus far, and will continue to oper-
ate, to prevent collision among the pow
ers within the Celestial empire. But, what
ever the event may prove to be in this be-
half, there is plain mandate of duty
addressed to the United States in the
premises. 1t is to act independently of
the wishes or interests of any of the con-
tending forces, and keep an eye single to
American interests and to the protection
of American rights of property and per-
son.
The developments OF the next month or
less will decide many things ais concern
ing China and it's national future Pub
lie sentiment will sustain the govern
ment of Lord SaHsbury in refusing to
withdraw from China. The same is true
as to German public sentiment The en-
peror is all-supreme, and he is sustained
Ny the national opinion. In such a situa-
ton there is always the possibility of the
most serious results accruing at any mo-
ment These results, however, can in all
probability be averted, at least for the
time, by some compromise understanding,
such as that outlined in the press dis
patches, looking to the nominal occu-
pancy of Pekin pending the completion
of negotiations which may place the re-
sponsible conduct Of Chinese national af-
fairs on some more secure basis than it
occupies today.

of the evidence connected with the count
this year points that way.
Ten years ago these cities were enjoy
ing a great boom and were straining
| every device to make an extraordinary
showing for the benefit of outside invest
City, whose city limits were extended to
take in greater area than do those of
Chicago. The surrounding sand hills were
all in the limits and were for sale by
der to sell them to outside investors,
extraordinary growth had to be shown,
and claims as to population made just
prior to 1890 were among the most reck-
less and visionary representations placed
before the New England syndicates with
| money to invest. But when the time ar
rived for taking the census Of 1899, the
process of separating Eeasterners from
their money had assumed an. interesting
phase, and it was felt that the state
ments in regard to the population must
be supported in the official figures at any
cost, and wholesale padding was resorted
to.
Omaha and Sioux City are now suf-
feting for their own dishonesty of ten
years ago, for, the correctness Of the
present census being conceded, as 1t is
everywhere outside of the two cities,
the showing Is bad, no matter what ex-
PLANTATION may be offered by the interest
ed parties. 1t is probable that after they
think the matter over and calm down,
both will frankly admit the fraud of 1890
and let it go at that. If they do not they
must acknowledge d big loss of popula-
tion in the last ten years, an admission
that would not only be injurious to their
standing, but preposterous as well. Both
have more Inhabitants today than ever
before in their history, and it is 10 the
interest OF both to admit this truth The
rest of the country will cordially wei
come the ambitious cities to the bedrock
Of honesty, and wish them many profit
able moments Of reflection over the de-
parture from rectitude ten years ago.
