Tree-lined avenues, tree-arched streets, the

play of light and shadow on the pavement,
the screening of the suns glare upon

the seasons progress as 1t 1s written on
the tree where all can read it-these are
factors Of beauty thrusting themselves at
once upon the mind as requisite to sue
cess. They are universal In appeal. They
speak only Of the beauty of all trees, they
record the aesthetic dependence of the
town upon its trees, without considering
the supplemental influence of single specl-
mems which may be gratifying to the eye
for grace. loved for beauty or splendor, for
associations, and age. The tree-impersonal

ChicaEO's Telephone Rates.

A situation has lust developed in Chi
cago i'm the matter of the telephone charges
somewhat similar to tha. which Is work
ing out through various court stages IN
this District. Back in 1889 city ordl-
nance was enacted granting franchise 10
the Chicago Telephone Company, branch
of the Bell corporation, stipulating that
the maximum charge for business service
should be SIPS a year and for residences
S1o0. For some time the company mas been
charging business subscribers at the rate
Of S17o year and for other services cor
respondinsiy. An association of telephone
subscribers has come into existence SINH
lar to that which is conducting the local
fight to enforce the mandate Of Congress.
and that organization has just decided to
carry the case into the courts and to re-
quire return to the legal rates prescribed
in 1889.
The Chicago company defends its advance
in charges on the ground that the present
service is much improved over that given
in 1889. and urges that the enactment Of
that year regulated the rates on the basis
of the best service then afforded. The sub
scribers declare that 1t was the intent OF the
law to fix q maximum above which the
company should not go, and this point is
to be fought out before the courts.
1t seems strange that a city as enter
prisiug as Chicago should have been will
ing for twelve years to work under laws
which have been distanced by the advances
in telephony. The company's claim that
the service Is improved Is undeniably true.
But it is likewise true that the cost of the
service to the company has been radically
reduced In this period.

The Congregational Program.

Replying yesterday to a question by a
reporter of The Star. Representative Sher-
man OF New York expressed himself as fol-
gress:
II believe the most important subjects Of
legislation will be those relating to the
government OF the new possessions think
a great deal of the time of the next session
will be consumed In the consideration OF
matters pertaining to these problems This
of course will involve a discussion on the
tariff question, specifically as well as in a
general way. Congress must sooner or
later prescribe a form of government for
the Philippines which shall be of a perma-
nent nature. This may and may not be
done at the forthcoming session"
This is a persuasive forecast. and IL 1t is
fulfilled we shall probably witness the con.
gressional elections OF next year contested
on the issue of what is called imperialism
For. of course. when the subject OF legisla-
tion for the new possessions is brought for
ward next winter both sides win be Obliged
to show their hands; and what is proposed
and opposed then win be so much cam
paign material when the congressional can
vases In the autumn begin. Nor will Ii be
sufficient for the democrats simply to on
pose the propositions OF the majority They
will be expected to have a program OF their
own with respect to government In Porto
Rico and the Philippines. and to be willins
to go before the country as It's champion.
And as the country may vote In Novem.
ber Of next year. so will the issue of i'm.
periaiism gain or lose in potency az re.

The Grandfather Clause.

The Alabama constitutional convention
yesterday adopted by vote of four to one
the grandfather clause OF its suffrage artf-
che Both OF the United States senators
from the state had declared against 1t.
Mr.. Morgan's language was especially Sc
we're. He described the provision as not
only unconstitutional and unwise. but
wholly out of keeping with all American
principles of government. Mr.. Pettus also
was direct. and the leader OF the minority
on the floor OF the convention was ex-Gov-
ernor Oates, a lawyer of distinction and
democrat in good standing. But the pres
sure was strong and this advice from hign
sources went for nothing. The convention,
feeling It's commission to be to disfranchlse
as many negroes as possible but white
man. took the course which 1t felt would
be most acceptable to the rank and file Of
the democratic party.
Louisiana. IT will be remembered. took
similar step in much the same way. When
the constitutional convention of that state
reached the question of suffrage the grand
father clause met with sharp criticism. and
the opinions of United States Senators Caf-
fiery and McE,nery were sought Both de-
clared against It. They not only pronounced
it unconstitutional, but conveyed to the
convention the information that their views
were shared by other democratic members
of the Senate. Nevertheless, the louisiana
convention adopted the clause, and Mr.. Nc
Emery has been reelected to the Senate
under the operations of the law against
the passage of which he counseled
But, upon the whole, this result in Ala
bama should be welcomed. 1t will help to
strengthen the case which Is now prepar-
ing for submission to the United States
Supreme Court. A decision by that tri-
bunal on question so momentous as that
of the suffrage as affected by efforts to null
lify the fifteenth amendment to the Consti-
tuition of the United States Is highly to be
desired and is now in fair way to be OBJ
tanned. And what has been done in North
Carolina, Louisiana and now in Alabama
will contribute very greatly toward such
settlement as the whole country will ac-
cept For nothing would appear to be
palmer than that In those three states the
negro has been disfranchised solely because
of his color; and this is directly in viola
ton of the national Constitution, and In op-
position to the most eminent of the leaders
of the political party profiting by 1t. Con-
gress likewise will be likely to take note OF
this Alabama proceeding when the question
Is presented there Of unequal representa-
tion in that body in the south's favor.

LOndOn's Rapid Transit.

Mr.. Balfour's glowing enthusiasm over
the opening, as far as Ealing SouthalI and
Hcunslow, of the London United Tram
ways Company's electrical system Is thor
oughly justified. 1t is characteristic of this
sluggish metropolis that Greater London
should have had to wait so long for this
obvious necessity. in comparison with
minor towns at home and abroad. But
better late than never. and Mr.. Balfour
does not say word too much when he
calls such an enterprise the most practical
and effective Of all steps toward making
1t possible for London's working popula-
tion to live at increasing distances from
its work, and so toward solving the prob
lens Of diminishing house room and con-

culture of Texan society, mentions the fact
that at a banquet given In that state
during the recent tour Of the President
the menu was printed in French. This
evidence of refinement will not go far as
an argument In those localities where an
earnest effort IS being made to secure the
abandonment of French in favor Of En-

Fly Poison.
From the springfeld Republican.

From various parts Of the country have
come reports this summer Of the poison
ing OF young children by drinking from
saucers In which fly paper has been put.
AS the material very frequently used for
this is the aikaloid OF the deadly mush-
room Amanita muscaria, which. indeed,
bears it's name from this very fact there
is no known cure unless the mischief is
Immediately discovered. While simple and
effective. this way OF getting rid OF flies is
by no means safe, and there is still room
for some clever inventor to improve upon
