Great things are promised for the
new century by g. Marconi, the au-
thor OF wireless telegraphy, says the
New York Press. Before the first
Christmas in the Goth century he Will,
he declares, have England and Amer
lea on speaking terms without the aid
Of submarine cables. One big pole
erected at southampton and another at
Montauk Point Will, he says, be all
that is needed. The cables which now
connec. Europe with America viii, If
Marconi fuihlls his promise, become as
obsolete as the stage coach became
when the railroad came in.
Confidence In the Work.
The optimistic electrician is confident
that he can establish telegraphic COM
m%unication between the eastern and
western worlds by his system at a hun
dred-thousandth part Of the cost Of
laying a cable and maintaining it.
Marconi says he has discovered a meth

that the messages from continent to
continent will be flashed back and forth
close to the surface Of the ocean over
the whole distance.
Heretofore the curvature Of the earth
has presented a dreaded difficulty 10 be
overcome in the transmission Of wire
less messages over long distances.
Marconi's new control Of the sound
waves, It is asserted, has obyiated the
difficulty. How It is done Marconi
does not explain-that is his secret
but he says that he is confident he has
found a method Of doing it. He con-
tends that the masts erected at Mon

suit to navigation by the establishment
Of a wireless electric communication
between vessels at sea and exposed
points on our lakes and sea coasts,
n also between islands along the
coasts and the mainland, has made a
systematic investigation of the various
systems of wireless telegraphy. The
progress made has been eminently sat
isfactory. New appliances have been
devised by the bureau experts for the
transmission of signals and receivers
have been constructed that are prob
ably more delicate than any heretofore
made. Messages have already been
sent and received over so miles Of land
which presented a rough and billy sur
face-conditions most unfavorable to
the transmission of electromagnetic
waves.
From Sea to Shore.
Marconi also promises that before
long ships at sea will be able by the
use of his system to communicate with
the shore. Navies are now experiment.
ing with his system and considerable
success has been obtained. Meantime
in England they are trying to telegraph
without the use Of wire from Dover to
Belgium. It looks as If in a short time
a message might be sent around the
world without the use of wires and that
all the parts Of the earth and the sea
would be in Geographic communication
with each other. Deserts, mountains,
oceans, time and space all seem to be
dissolving before the advance Of sci
ence. The world could not desire a
better Christmas present for 1901 than
the fulhllment Of Marconi's promise.

California TO Manila.
The United States is now preparing
to lay a cable across the Pacific ocean
from the California coast to Manila.
If Marconi can make his promise good
Of ~telegraphing without wire r
the Atlantic then there would be no
need for laying the cable. The wire
less system could be used and all the
tremendous cost Of establishing cable
communication obviated. The distance
from Montauk to Southampton Is over
5000 miles. From San Francisco to
Honolulu is only $500 miles. From

SENATE OF STATE
Adopts Resolution Urging Their
Rspresen tativss and Senators
in Congress to Use all Means
to Secure Measures 10 Relieve
Existing Conditions Here.

The potent influence Of the great
state of Texas can be depended
upon to promote any Legislation
that may be introduced al the
coming session Of congress that
has for its object The bettermenl
of the wreiched conditions that ex-
list at present in the territory.
The state senate, assembled at
Austin. has adopted the following
resolutions requesting their repre-
sentatives in congress to use all
influence possible to assist the ter
ritory in it's effort TO obtain stable
form of government:
Whereas, The Twelfth census
of the United States shows that
there are 392. .060 people, Indians,
whites and blacks, residing in the
Indian Territory; and,
Whereas, That number Of peo-
pie are all citizens of the United
States; and,
Whereas, All these people, ex-
cept about $4,000 Indians, are
living without any form OF gov
ernment whatever; and,
Whereas, The judicial system in
vogue in said territory is wholly
inadequate for the protection Of
the rights OF persons and proper
ty Of said people; therefore, be IL
Resolved, That the senate OF
the state OF Texas, in Legislature
assembled, respectfully ask, urge
and request the senators and rep
resentaiives in congress from
Texas TO use every means possi-
BILE and practicable at the coming
session Of congress TO secure the
passage of such measures as will
relieve the people of the Indian
Territory, and 10 give them a
stable form Of government that
will provide roads, schools and
such other institution as are
necessary to develop the resources
and product OF agricultural, COM

FREEDOM OF SPEECH.
Bryan Says Evils Of Restriction are
Greater Than Evils Of Freedom.

VIM. j. Bryan in his paper, the
Commoner, has replied in the fol-
lowing forceful editorial to those
papers that have favored a limited
restriction of speech and the press
as possible cure for anarchy:
Sons of the republican papers
are suggesting limitations upon
the freedom of speech as a cure for
anarchy. The editor of the Com
moner has as much reason as any
living man to know of the abuse
sometimes heaped upon candidates
for office. He has been the vic
tim of as much malice and vituper-
alton as have ever been employed
against an American. and yet he
is opposed to placing any addi-
tional restriction upon the freedom
OF speech or the freedom of the
press.
First, because the evils of re-
striction are greater than the evils
OF freedom, and, second, because
abuse does not hurt the man or the
party made the subject of the at
tack. The death OF President
Mckinley can not be traced 10
anything ever spoken or written
against him. The assassin spoke
affectionately of his victim and
said that he killed him not be-
cause OF bis dislike for the man
but because Of his opposition to
government of any kind. Some
who are engaged in schemes which
will not bear the light will shield
themselves behind the murderous
deed Of the assassin and denounce
freedom Of speech because they
do not want the public to be in.
formed of their doings. Others,
stirred by righteous indignation,
strike at free speech because some
have abused the latitude allowed.
1t is time for liberty-loying citi-
zens TO protest against the attempt
TO suppress free speech. The war
fare must be against anarchy, not
against freedom of speech. An
srcby is an European product and
thrives most where there is least
freedom of speech and least free
dom Of the press. Let Us not
make the mistake Of undermining
our institutions Under the delusion
that we are thus protecting those
institutions.
Free speech and free press are
essential to free government. No
man in public life can object TO the
publication OF the truth and no
man in public life is permanently |
injured by the publication OF lie.
That much is published that
should not be is only too evident,
but let public opinion correct the
evil; that will be more effective
than law and will bring no danger
with IL. II paper abuses a po-
litical opponent stop your SUBJ
scription and teach the editor TO
conduct his paper on respectable |
lines. There is q sense Of justice |
in the human heart and he who |
violates il violates Ii at bis own
peril. This sense Of justice ulti-
mately turns abuse to the benefit
OF the man abused. The present
laws against libel and slander are |
sufficient: leave the rest TO a
public sentiment-and |
then help to create the sentiment.

printed names of nominees, rarely
exceeding five columns, need not be
each over IL inches wide. Omit all

designations. Plainly instruct the
voter, if he wishes TO vote Il straight
party ticket, to run his pencil down
over All tue columns except the one
in which his party is represented; if
he wishes to vote for candidates on
different tickets. to strike out with
his pencil all the names except those

to vote for men not on either regular

not be, even in presidential years.
