a nation of lost opportunities, and ac-
cording to their theories, America has
won the prestige England has lost.

that America is winning supremacy in
the wooden trade and that an Ameri-

laurels of wool manufacture from Eng

cut into by the California fruits. Amer
lean confectionery is driving English
bonbons into the back ground. and
everywhere the story is the same Of
America cutting into England's trade.
The truth of the matter seems to be
that England has lately suffered unus-

and is bit down at the mouth, but
no Britisher could be sorrier than the
American to really believe that the ma

THE CUR DOG EVIL


The incident of an attack on a police
officer made by dog supposed to be suf-
fering from rabies ought to carry a di-
rect and serious warning to the city au-
tnorities.
The Clio b does not accept the belief
that there is any danger of am outbreak
of rabies. Nor does it believe that there
is anything exceptional in the present
conditions in that regard in this city.
But there is danger which never
ceases to menace our people. It is that
cast dogs. These animals are peculiarly
susceptible to disease. They are utterly
worthless, and generally nuisance in
the vicmities which they frequent. 1t
would be a commemorate thing If gen
eral slaughter of them could take place

and a well cared for animal. But his

ability the result of contact with some
wretched cur which ought never to have
been allowed to reach maturity.

The evident Importance Of these projects
had the effect to send UP the price Of
Atchison stock. The preferred which is
supposed to earn per cent now stands
at los, while the common, which earns
nothing, has jumped from "A to 81 since
January.
Recent developments in the directorate
indicate that J. Pierpont Morgan has a
hand in the new deal. The supposition is
that Morgan has been quietly gathering
in a majority Of the common stock and
has secured control Of the property. This
may be for the purpose of selling it to
the Hamburg-American people who are
evidently after 1t, or it may be for the
purpose Of holding check upon the Rock
efeller-Gould combination who made it
uncomfortable for the Morgan-Hill COM
munity a few weeks ago. With the
Atchison under control of the Morgan
combination the Southern and Union Pa
cific combine would be of little value.
At all events Atchison stock has been
a gold mine for the last sixty days.

Interesting Paper Read on Localized
Amnesin

In the section Of mental and nervous
diseases, which met in a committee room
at the capital. an interesting paper was
read by DR.. Edward Mayer, of Pittsburg
on "a Case of Localized Amnesia,' the
subject being the victim Of a railroad
accident. In February Of this year the
victim became unconscious, and when he
awoke after twenty-four hours it was
found that the period dating from the
accident, twenty-four years had been
obliterated. No recollection Of these
years remained aside from his previous
life and the accident. Interesting papers
were read by DR.. r. D. Crothers Of Hart

ANOTHER SAMPLE TRANSACTION

AS the work Of investigating the tax
of the auditor OF this county progresses
1T becomes more and more plain that
the special plea which Mr.. Jonnson's
friends offer for him, that the county
lost nothing" must be abandoned.
The first accurate statement that has
appeared in print of the real nature and
extent of the latest transaction I'M
earthed by the state examiner, and Of
the methods adopted in conducting 1T
to rob the taxpayers of some $500, the
reader viii find in the news columns OF
this issue Of the G o b e.
Any other statement of that transac-
tion thus far published is incomplete, in
accurate or garbled.
The Globe does not PREJUDICE the
county auditor, the owner of the prop
erty in question, the purchaser Of that
property or the tax certificate operator
in the transaction. 1t confines itself to
placing the facts before the public in
the simplest possible manner and in
their true and full significance, legally
and morally.
The transaction, as we'll as all other
corresponding transactions which may
be made public are left to be dealt with
by the prosecuting authorities of state
and county alike.
The part which the G o b has thus
far played or may hereafter play in
defeating the effort to misrepresent or
smother up the revelations made has
been dictated solely by a determination
that the facts shall be known in all
their significance and that the legal con-
sequences shall be borne fully by all VINO

the most vital and important Winch con-

American people.
In his remarks, Dr. Engelmann made
the surprising Statement that the steri1Aty
Of native American women threatened
the downfall of the country. and in this
connection he said that childbirth in
American families is fast becoming a
matter of accident. Figures were pro-
