The Naval Cadets.

After full consideration of the question 1t
has been found impracticable by the Navy
Department to make any change in the ar
rangements for the naval cadets to take
part in the Inauguration ceremonies. The
cadets will, therefore, arrive in this city
from Annapolis the morning Of the 4th of
March and return to the academy in the
evening of the same day. An effort was
made to have the cadets given more time
in this city, but 1t is said at the Navy De-
partment that it could not be done because
of the failure to secure suitable accommo-
dations in time.

SIOUX INDIANS DISSATISFIED.
Outbreak Expected July 4 at Fort
Yates Agency.

FORT YATES. N. D., February 27.-Re-
ports of unrest among the Sioux Indians.
circulated a fortnight since, have been ac-
centuated here by the rumor that several
persons have been warned of plans for an
outbreak of some sort on July 4, when the
Indians gather at the various agencies to
participate in games.
1t is claimed by the Indians that they
have been unable to secure complete and
satisfactory statement from the department
at Washington of the money due them on
sales of lands ceded under the treaty OF
1889 and to this fact is said to be due ths
present feeling of dissatisfaction.

VIENNA, February 27.-There was free
fight today between pan-Germans and
Czechs on the floor of the reichsrath.
The session opened with promise OF
storms. Herr Schoenerer was specially
prominent in creating disturbance. Later
the Czechs resorted to obstruction. making
speeches in their own tongue. The pan
Germans protested against the abuse OF
freedom of speech and party of them in
yaded the Czech benches The result was
a fierce fisticuffs fight. A pan-German
named Stim attempted to chastise Czech
named Fresl. whereupon the radical Czechs
surrounded him. Stim's friends rushed to
his rescue and the various groups became
mixed up in free fight, during which the
presidents bell and voice were drowned
in the uproar. Eventually the president
succeeded in making 1t known that the
session was suspended. Before the house
could be cleared. however, the rival men,
bers again clinched and fierce blows were

Another Model Town.

The model towns of the past have been failures, because some Pullman has endeavored to rule in them as a boss or autocrat, and the American workman and freeman resents such dictation. But at Endicott, near Bing- hamton, in New York, a town Is to be established on the plan of self-rule The residents are to control it in every respect. There is to be no Pullman in it. No one Is to be made" to be good. Each and every man must work out unaided his own salvation in this world, and at Endicott these self-ruled men are to be in control of the town. The Pullman idea of creating a town to order and population to match has been rejected as dismal failure.
 The cottages that capita, Is building in this new factory town are equipped with porcelain tubs, shower baths, con- servatories, clothes drying closets, plate glass refrigerators, electric lights and electric ranges. The rentals will be moderate, and the hope Is that so- cial inequalities will not exist in it. and that there will be so much con- tentment in it that no one will desire to leave it, or to join labor unions.
 Here will come the test or trouble of the experiment. Can there be con tentment in town which Is owned by capitalists? Can there be real Ameri- can independence in such town? Does not ownership necessarily involve con- trol, If not at the hands of the present manager, then at the hands of the next one? The experiment is no doubt an interesting one sociologically speaking, but unless possible ownership becomes feature of 1t it will go the way of all other model towns, every one of which has been dismal failure.

Rivals for the Railroads.

Air and water are both assailing the railroads. Chicago is trying to get two open water routes to the sea, the one through the great lakes, and the other through the drainage canal and the Mississippi river. Birmingham is seek ing an Open Warrior, and nearly every city has dreams at least of water transportation. Many of these dreams will be carried into fact, and in the long run products will secure in many ports of the country water transporta- tion or at least water rates. For many of the schemes are bus schemes for water rates on the railroads, or some thing approaching them.
 While these things are going on un- der our eyes M. Ssntos-D -Dumont Is en- deavoring in France to solve the prob lem of aerial navigation. and he un- doubtedly has built balloon that can be steered at will in good weather. His effort is no doubt the beginning of a long line of invention and skill, and we may now safely assume that the dirigi- ble balloon will be perfected very much as the modern locomotive has been. It took fifty years to bring the locomotive to the point of high eff ciency, and 1t will probably be fifty years before the balloon reaches the limit of its service to man.
 With balloons in the passenger ser vice and plenty of water routes for heavy freights the lot of the railroads will not be so happy after all. Timid passengers and light freights will be left to them. But the present lot of stockholders will not much care what happens fifty years from now. They are content to work off watered securi- ties now, and to earn present dividends upon such securities, and they will let the future take care of itself. M. San tos-Dumont has not taken his trip around the globe, and he will probably be much older when he does take it. He is, however, only 2S years old, and he may live to see some one else take it. The round globe rates will be, however, for plutocrats only.

Exports to the South.

Exports from tnls country to our .neighbors south of us were handsome ly increased in the last fiscal year. Our exports to Mexico and the West Indies are rapidly increasing. and to some extent this is the case as to all the rest of the country to the south of us. In round numbers our sales of goods to Mexico, the West Indies, Cen tral and South america in 1899 were s10S ,OO0, ,000; in 1900 they amounted to s127O0O, 900, and last year they rose to s13s.OOO,0oo.
 These increases are largely due to better transportation facilities. So far as Mexico, Central America and the West Indies are concerned these are very good, but much remains to be done in order to give this country as good facilities for trade in South America as England enjoys. We buy from South America goods to the value of about $350, 100000. and We sold last year to the vast continent only $45.- 301 ,000. From Brazil we take rubber, coffee and other articles to the value of $1O5, ,0oO, and yet we sell there only $12, ,190,000. The Argentina case is not greatly different. This can be changed by better transportation facil- ities. Additional steamship lines on both coasts of South America are needed, and the time has come for the completion of line from the Rio Grande to Buenos Ayres. The distance from New York tc Buenos Ayres by rail would then be 10,228 miles, about half of which Is completed. The other half should be built. We add table that shows the country's exports to the various southlands:

Air Line to vicksburu.

vicksburg wants a direct line to Bir- mingham, and so does Brunswick, and so do Atlanta and Aberdeen, not to mention the plans of Columbus, Miss, and Jackson and Meridian. AS all roads once led to Rome, so all roads nowadays are headed this way The reason of this is found in the immense tonnage of this district, and in the i'm mense prosperity of it. The proposed Yicksburg road will be built It is needed in connection with trade on the Lower Mississippi The Age-Herald is glad to hear that the sum needed in order to pay for survey of the line in this State has been secured. and that other early steps looking to speedy constructor of the line will be taken. The Vicksburg line has merit in 1t. It will bring to this town the business of territory not now traversed by railroad, and best of all it will give this distrlct an airline to the tsawer Mississippi. Vicksburg is but 253 miles away. By means of barges New Orleans will not be much further away so far as railroad rates are con- cerned. Birmingham needs the pro- posed line.
