A Memorial Bridge.

Ii was an aspiration of the late
President to illustrate the cooperation
under a common uniform, of the sol
diers of the North and South in the
Spanish war. The blue and the grey
had united in khaki: and Mr. Mckinley
desired To commemorate the event by
bridge across the Potomac
Now that he is dead. it has been
suggested that the idea should be mag
nified into a memorial bridge. COM
memorative alike of the kindly-hearted
President and of his most enduring
wofk-the union in a common senti-
ment of patriotism of the peoples north
and south Of the Potomac. The sugges-
@tru1 is a good one, and worthy of all
acceptance.
The national memorial TO national
martyr should be in the city where he
did his national work That city is

JOHNSON PURsUEs TAX FIGHT.
To Garry the Matter Into the Ohio
Supreme Court.

CLEVELAND. o., Nov. 17.-Mayor Tom
l.. johnson will carry his tax fight against
the steam railroads into the Supreme
Court tomorrow He will ask that body
to issue a writ of mandamus compelling
the State Board OF Equalization of Rail-
road Property TO reconvene for the pur-
pose of changing and equalizing the value
of railroad property in the State.
In his petition. Mayor Johnson states
that he appeared before the board last
June and showed that the railroad prop
erty in the State had an aggregate value
of $3.50 900. 900, and urged that a fair tax
value be decided or However. he says.
the railroads Were only assessed on a
value of sl17 100000, and AYERS that the
assessment is so under value as in law to
be fraudulent and void.
He claims that the board refused to ex-
ercise its power and enter upon its juris-
diction, and that 1t performed what il
did under an incorrect and mistaken no.
tion of its powers and duties. The tax
values are fixed by the county auditors
each auditor determining the value of
railroad property in his county.
Mayor Johnson, did his best to persuade
the auditors in his part of the State 10
fix what he called fair value In this
ter to the State Board of Equalization
which is composed of the State Auditor
State Treasurer. Attorney General and
Railroad Commissioner.
The board claimed it had no power to
change the aggregate valuation fixed by
erred and it is on this point he hopes to
secure the writ of mandamus. ri--

SALISBURY'S LAST SPEECH.
Prime Minister'S Uttcrances Regard
ed ms weak by the Press.

LONDON. Nov. 7.-There has been a
flood of political oratory in the last week
but the speeches. have not contained any
thing very fresh or important. The ma
iority have dealt with the war, a subject
which remains wrapped in the mystery
thrown over it sbN Lord Salisbury In his
speech a week ago last night.
That speech has received fresh pias'
of criticism with the appearance OF the
weekly reviews The Outlook says;
In all human probability Lord Salis-
bury'a speech at the Lord Mayors ban
quet is the last that will fall upon him
to deliver in Guild Hall in the character
of Prime Minister He left with the au-
dience the impression of being quite a
tired man"
The Saturday Review says:
IAN expectant world was never more
brusquoly disappointed. If Lord Sails
bury had not been the speaker no one
would have taken notice of the speech.
There is something almost pitiable in the
attempts of the press of England and the
Continent to-conceal their chagrin.'
The spectator has this to say:
Judged by its public reception, the
speech cannot be described as success;
indeed. if we are to describe its effect on
the country we cannot but record that it
was d source of considerable Irritation
and disappointment.
Many guesses are being made at Sails
bury's mysterious pleading that silence IS
imposed on the Government by sense OF
public duty. No authentic information as
to what the Government knows which
would relieve the public anxiety II IL
could be told is vet forthcoming. one
surmise is that the Government has trust
worthy information Of the extent of the
Boer funds If they are near depletion 1t
would naturally have a serious effect on
the Beers. There is no doubt that many
remain in the field still in hopes of Eu-
ropean friends assisting them.
This hope, amounting to a belief, is
fostered to a great extent by the Conti-
mental press, but the support of the press
is intimately connected with the condition
of the Rner fund.

Agriculture i'm the philippines.

The agricultural experiment station,
which has proved valuable to farmers
il this country. is likely to be intro
dueed in the Philippines. Secretary
Wilson is planning to send out a num-
l.er of scientists to the islands, to dis
tribute seeds and teach the natives
modern methods of agriculture Even
now the products of tropical regions
are proverbialiy luxuriant and it is not
known what can be done with improved
implements and scientific cultivation.
Possibly Mr.. Wilson will find that he
has Increased the productiveness OF the
soil to such an extent that the crop viii
have to come Up in layers, one plant
standing ON the head of another.
The scientists who thus serve as mis-
sionaries OF agriculture. however. are
likely to have some quaint experiences.
The average Oriental has all kinds of
objections TO changing his ways of
making a living. This must be taken
into account by the members of any
ciV5liZing agency sent to the Philip
pines. They may explain the chemical
properties of the soil, and the laws of
growth. and all that, until they have
aphasia, but if their listeners happen to
believe that there is a tutelary demon
somewhere about who holds different
views that is all the good ii will do.
IN connection with all Oriental prob
lens it is wise To remember the fate
OF the man Who once tried to spur such
a community up to modern business
methods:
And the end Of it all was a tombstone
tat. with the name OF the late de-
ceased,
And the <pitaph drear. "A fool lies here
who tried to hustle the East"

Forsook Politics for Law.

John G. Carlisle came over from New

Arlington. He was for many years
member of the House of Representatives.,
then for several terms its Speaker, after
ward Senator and finally. -Secrtary of
the Treasury under President NleNe-
lands second Administrations His sup
port of the financial policy Of his chief,
which was in ultra contrast to what Car
lisle had always advocated cost him his
popularity with those who had for years
been his most ardent supporters.
When Mr.. Carlisle's term as secretary
of the Treasury expired. he settled in
New York, and ceased to be factor in
national politics. Throughout all his long
political career he remained poor man,
which testified to his honesty. Now. by
means of the same sterling integrity. and
his undisputed legal ability, he has come
TO be q prosperous lawyer in New York.
In his declining years he Is making
money. He declares that he Is still
Democrat, and he was considerably dis
appointed at the result Jf the recent mu-
nicipal election in New York.
Mr.. Carlisle looks as hale and hearty
as he did at any time during his official
career at the CAPITAL. and seems more
vigorous and active than when he left
Washington. The eX-Secre tary is here to
attend to some legal matters before the
United States Sikreme Court.

Voorhees, three years ago.

crnors prior to the inaugural of Governor
Voorhees,. The latter was not given 10

BLOEMFONTE!N, Nov. H.-Boer pris-
oners continue to arrive here from the
vnrious British mobile columns in Orange
River Colony at the rate of about 100 per
week The military hospital is almost
empty and the doctors md little work on
their hands, as the troops in the field
have become hardened by their rough
life, and are all in excellent health
The country around this place has been
visited by enormous swarms of locusts,
but the British military authorities have
made a free distribution of fungus to
the farmers. which Ifas proved deadly in
stamping out the pests. Lately. on a
farm near Modder River, three grea,
swarms of locusts were all killed by this
process.

FRANCE GAINS IN THE EAST.
Germany Loss of Prestige Profit
able 10 Her NeigbbOr.

LONDON, Nov 1.-THE settlement of
the Franco-Turkish dispute came with un-
expected promptness. The reason for its
suddenness will be most likely sought in
the action of other Powers, especially Of
the Triple Alliance.
The French Foreign Minister. NJ. Del
casse. has scored a distinct triumph but
at the same time he has gone back on
the definite declaration Of France to ac-
cept nothing less than satisfactory guar
antees that the Sultan would grant her
demands before she would leave Mitylene,
for the Sultans promises cannot reason
ably be regarded as the most satisfactory
kind of guarantees. Admiral Caiilard.
however, is still with his squadron In
Turkish waters.
The Powers. there is good reason for
stating, however. secured from NJ Del
casse binding pledges to abandon the re-
tention of a material guarantee from Tur-
key and to withdraw Caillard as soon as
the Porte has publicity promised 10 con-
cede all the French demands.
At the same time the Powers undertook
to bring every pressure to bear upon the
Sultan, who, finding himself abandoned
by everyone and unable to trust Germany
any more than Russia or Great Britain,
was forced to yield
The result Of dS this win undoubtedly
be TO reduce Germanys influence at Con-
stantinople, which for some time has been
predominant, and to exalt French influ-
ence. which has been practically nil, thus
restoring more or less the old position In
Turkey as regards external affairs.
For France the result is distinctly bene-
fetal Ii will remove one OF the weakest
poiats of the Republic in the eyes of
Frenchmen, viz. the lack Of external re-
pute and prestige IN Europe.
Thus the present Government and the
Republican party have been greatly
strengthened for the coming election.

A Brief Senatorial Career.

Charles A. Towne. whose recent ephem-
eral membership in the Senate terminated
for the present at least his political ca
reer was a guest yesterday at the Raj
eigh man of conspicuous ability, he
came to Congress from Minneapolis sew
erat years ago. and in that galaxy OF
statesmen his talents were soon recog-
nized He was a Republican. Then he
differed with his party on the money
question and failed of reelection. He
supported in 1926 the party he had but
short time before bitterly antagonizcd
Last year he was nominated by the Pop
ulists and Silver Republicans for the Vice
Presidency. The Democratic party in
convention refused to ratify that nOmina-
tion and Mr.. Towne withdrew in favor of
former Vice President Stevenson. He be-
came full-fledged Democrat. When Sen
ator Davis died tie Governor of Mime
sofa after several Republicans had re-
fused the honor. appointed Mr.. Towne
United States Senator He served only
one month. the Legislature electing Sen
ator Clapp his successor. Mr.. Towne
made one speech before his senatorial
term expired
Mr. Towne then removed 70 New York
and began the practice of law. He also
organized a strong company and struck
oil in the Beaumont fields of Texas. He
has achieved a marked SUCCESS even in
the time less than a year. since he left
the Senate. His income is now many
times larger than That of the Vice Presi-
dent of the United States.
