delightful performance in this city, has
received word from Poland, her native
land, that the ukase Of the Car which
made her an exile has been revoked, and
that she may now return to her old home

of years ago she delivered speeches on
the subject of personal freedom. which
met with such stern dislpproval on the
part Of the Cars government that by an
official order she was banished from the
country; or in other words, was warned
that II she returned to Poland she would
be arrested and imprisoned, for she was
in America at the time Notwithstanding
she owns a magn hcent ranch IN Califor-

BETTER STREET CARS PROMISED

No doubt the people of this city read
with lively interest and a great deal of
satisfaction the interview with the new
general manager of the Savannah, Thun-
derbot and Isle of Hope Railway that
was published in the Morning News yes
terday. 1t is apparent from the state
ments which he made that there is going
to be a very general overhauhng of the
equipment of the entire system. The out
going general manager did great deal
in improving the property, but he did not
do nearly as much as ought to have been
done. He went as far, probably, In the
direction of making improvements as he
was permitted to go. 1t is evident from
what the new general manager says that
farSgreater improvements are going to be
made under his management than there
were under the management of the out
going general manager.
1t has been known for some time that
there was room for great Improvement
in the roads equipment, and IL is pretty
Certain that these improvements are now
about to be made The new general man
ager is in close touch with the owners OF
the railway property, and no doubt he
smoke in his interview with the authority
of one who is sure of what he is talking
about. II is certain that the people in
this city will appreciate greatly the inn
provements which are to be made, and
they will show their appreciation of them
he h.
orally.
In ordering new cars the general man.
ager ought to take into consideration the
needs of this city. The climate here is
much like that Of other cities on the
South Atlantic coast. There is a great
deal of pleasant weather interspersed
with showers in the summer and cold days
in the winter. The cars therefore ought
20 be arranged so that they could be
changed quickly from open to closed
cars.
The cars now in use in Charleston are
admirable for climate like that of this
city. There is an aisle in the center of
them with seats at right angles to their
sides, and abe windows are very large
and cut low SO that in pleasant weather
the car can be made an open one and in
Indictment weather a closed one. A car
Of this kind is an an-the-year-round
car.
Another improvement that would be.ap-
preciated is the starting of the cars that
rum to suburban places from the business
section of the city. Now, the cars for
Isle of Hope and Thunderbolt start from
places on the edge of the city. Stin an
other ching that ought to be done is this:
The line to Bethesda and Montgomery
ought to be equipped with electricity. II
this were done and the old White Bluff
Line were rebuilt, Savannah would have
as fine and complete street and suburban
car system as any city the country.
The company which owns the street car
system Of this city has mine Of wealth.
It may not be yielding big returns just
now on the money invested IN It, but Il
will in che near future. The city is pros
porous ana is growing. The company can
help itself and at the same time help the
city and the county by providing such
satisfactory street and suburban rail-
way system that 1t will not be In danger

Mr.. Bryan was questioned sboft
various matters OF public interest aud
made the following replies:

project had fallen through. The
transcontinental railways and the

sible. The railroads were afraid that
IL the water was used for the canal
there would not be enough left for

If the republican party makes no
more progress in the next four years
than il made in the last four il will
soon reach its finish.
This big steel combine is but an
other illustration OF the trusts we
fought in the last campaign. The
tendency IS TO still further and larger
