Tho National Grange in session in this
CITY, meets at an opportune time. me
farmers of the country have good reason
to assemble and to congratulate them
selves upon two conditions-the prosperity
now prevalent which they share in pro-
portion. and the reaction from popu1sm
The doctrines promulgated at Ocala in 1880
took the fancy of many of the farmers OF
the country and two years later they
sweled the Weaver ranks to formidable
proportions There is nothing in all the
political history of the United States more
remarkable than the populstic movement
of the first half dozen years of this decade.
Aeftators strove their hardest to persuade
the farmers that their condition was de-
plorable. The reaction has persuaded Them
apparently. that they were listening to false
counSels and that the economic conditions
could not be remedied by the radical meas
ures proposed by the organizers of the alli-
anCe and the peoples party. The wonder
ful burst of prosperity in 1897 carried away
many arguments which were based upon
false reasoning. The disproof of Bryans
assertion that wheat and silver rise and
fall together was staggering blow to pop
ulism. The farmer brought to see
that his prosperity depended upon broader
conditions than could be reached by the
socialistic eXpedients proposed by the re-
formers. The free coinage cry sounded
well for while. 1t suggested abundance
of money and it concealed from some the
real fact that there is vast difference
between quantity and quality. Fortunate
ly the substantial business interests of the
country recognized the danger and pre-
vented crisis which would have sent the
agriculturalists deeper into the mire of debt
and despair than ever before. The returns
from the voting of last week show that
the farmer is persuaded of the folly of this
clamor. Throughout the middle states he
Republican vote was sweled in the rural
regions, showing that the farmers have re-
pudidtcd the Chicago platform and all its
kind This Washington meeting ought to
he a jubilee of rejoicing in recognition Of
the passing of a serious danger

grievances suffered a result or railroad
o,c1natiou of the streets be thoroughly con-
sidered by the Commissioners and IA decf-
sion reached which will lead TO some def
mite undcrSt anding pending the elevation
or depression of the tracks The nuisance
of which the people complain Is unmistak-
able No amount Of arguing can psTsuaue
n fair-Ininded person that there Is not, on
the part of the corporations agents an I'M
necessary amount of obstruction, or that
the company at all times rightly obeys the
laws and the regulations. There Is prop
ably no malicious blocking of the streets
by engineers and conductors. But those

Thu. Commissioners have the power to
compel the railroad company to keep with
in the letter of the regulations. II they
find upon investigation that the facliities
now afforded for the dispatch of the bust
ness of the roads will not permit an exact
compliance with these rules, they will
doubtless make that fact entirely plain to
the citizens in order that there may be
sances which the grade crossings entail
The presumption is that the Commission
ers in dealing with this matter, Will as
sumo that the rights of the residents are
superior to the rights of the railroads that
the streets are primarily designed for use
as thorOughfares and not as stalling points
for trains or storage spaces for cars III
this point of view be clearly fixed before
the issue is decided there will be greater
chance for action which will persuade the
people that their rights are being faithful
" conserved.
The fact that the bill to abolish grade
crossings on the Pennsylvania lines within
the city Is expected to pass at the coming
session of Congress should not be a factor
in the case. The nuisances complained OF
will be certain to exist, If undated by
force of official action. for several years,

From the Savannah News.

For several years the supply of rubber
has been short and prices have ruled high.
The advent of the bicycle as a popular We
hicle, and later the use of rubber tires on
automobiles and carriages of all sorts.
doomed the cost of the material to an I'M
precedented point Some anxiety has been
felt with respect to the supply. and many
efforts have been made to discover salts
factory rubber substitute. However appre-
hension of the failure of the supply has
been allayel by the discovery of great
forest of rubber trees in Bolivia. But this
discovery should not discourage the expert
ment in rubber-tree cultivation which is be-
ing made in Florida.

American Coal Is All Right.

From the New York Tribune.
Americas coal mines must be drawn upon
for the use of Europe. In the next decade
the old world will be even more dependent
upon the new than it is now. A few enc
mics of the United States have falsely as
serted that there is no coal within our
borders fit for the use of the fastest steam
ships which Cannot make time unless they
use fuel of the choicest quality. American
coal has been thoroughly tested on French
ships Of war. No severer trial of coal can
be thought of than that applied on battle
ships cruisers. :yunboats and naval Destroy
ers The verdict is favorable American
coal like American invention. withstands
all Misrepresentation and calumny.

Parks Promote Education.
From the Chicago Tribune.

Parks and boulevards, streets lined with
trees and green lawn spaces are not only
n necessity but are ornaments part of
the city's dress suit that no prosperous
and well-built city can be without. They
are wealth-producing, which is proved by
the higher value in boulevard frontage and
lands bordering on parks. Combining us to
parks their educational value Is great.
Here we meet the artist sketching or paint
ing the entomologist in search for new
discoveries, the amateur gardener in pur-
suit of more knowledge. Spring and fall
classes from our public schools invade the
pastoral plantations for botanical studies
or to obtain practical lessons in ornthol-
ogy Thus the parks become veritable
outdoor college open to all. the Fairgrounds
Of the millions: rich and Door alike are
welcome to their balmy, health-producing
atmosphere.

Ever since the discovery of contagious

ing industriously along that line, and con-
tagion can now be spread among several
varieties of harmful insects. A contagious
disease similar to leprosy has been discoy-
cred In the grasshopper family and expert

the belief that it can be made most efflca-
cious In freeing the farms Of that pest.

that senseless fashion except the desire to
be truly English. Now that supreme au-

edict in favor of natural-siZed tails we see
no other way for fashion in this country to
meet the exigency except by the invention
Of artificial tails for their rashly bobbed

Is very funny place.

In an ecstacy of mirth.
