ing electric companies and machine builders in Germany-among them the General Electric company of Berlin, and the Krupps. In short, the first scientific and mechanical ability of Germany Is engaged upon the experi- ments which are expected to- begin some time this month or next Two motor cars are being built for the pur- pose. each capable of carrying fifty passengers, and it is said that efforts will be made to attain speed of from 12 5to 159 miles an hour. A three phase alternating current will be used, employing two overhead wires and a third rail as conductors. One rartic- ularly important point to be demon- strated will be whether a motor nov ing at speed of 100 miles an hour or more will take the current readily from such conductors as are described. If the experiments are successful. and if all conditions of the problem seem to be satisfactorily met. the project of constructing fast electric line between eBrlln and Hamburg is likely to be i'm mediately undertaken. The distance is about 156 miles, and the new line would bid for long-distance passenger traffic against he steam roads. relying upon the advantage of much greater speed and saving of time.

A federal law recognizing the offense of milk adulteration would greatly fa- eiitate the process of prevention and punishment. There are few states into which milk is not imported every day. The bulk of the supply, of course, comes into the cities from near neigh borhoods. but in very many cases from over state lines comes a large per centage of the total contribution. Un- der the presen t laws the exporters from out of the state have an advan- tage over their competitors within the state, and thus q premium is put upon long-distance transportation to avoid local laws. The oleomargarine statutes are strict in recognition of this oppor- tunity for fraud upon the people. But those laws are aimed principally at the protection of the purse of the pur- chaser. The milk problem affects the health of the consumer and demands consideration by congress oven more mslstently than those other proposi- tions which have already resulted in the enactment of interstate food sup Fly laws. With proper extension of authority the district authorities could very considerably reduce he chance of milk poisoning or weakening.

plicity. and very likely the meagerness of his salary, too. save him from the necessity of spending much.
 The lieutenant-governors of the Ca nadian dominion have fallen almost to the American standard in the matter of pay. and risen to it in the matter of purpose. The lieuteant governors of Ontario and Quebec receive only $l0.- 900 year apiece; but the governor general of the dominion receives $50.- 900 a year, which is the same as the salary of the president of the United States. That the pay of these two gentlemen is proportioned to the rela- tive consequence of their positions would not be maintained. probably, by the Canadians themselves. Nor would any American of experience and good sense maintain that his president was adequately paid. The president Is at least the equal. in the eyes of the pow CTS and potentates of the world, of the governor general of India, bu: that functionary receives a salary of sso,- 900 year.

Don't leave the city for. mountain or beach without having The Re publican accompany you. You will be lonesome without it.

The province of Victoria, in the Aus tralian Commonwealth, has. since the
 s'sV9t decline of its relative A QUESTION greatness. due to its OF absorption in that new SALARIES. state. reduced the sal
 arv of it's governor from G7,OOo year to e5.0OO, Mir. Chamber lain informs the Victorians that they cannot get first class man as gover~ nor for that figure. but they maintain the reduction. It night be remarked that perhaps the Viotiorians could be given a first rate, experienced gover- nor. familiar with all branches of the business from the United States, in con sideration of an annual salary of even s25,0o0. if they could not find suit able man In Great Britain, Governor OdeI. of New York state, receives SIG. .OOO yeari and only two other governors in the United States. those of New Jer- sey and Pennsylvania. get as much. The governors of Vermont and oregon receive only si.5O0 year, and the Yer monters at least-they are not tlmid folk in setting forth the virtues and advantages of their own state-claim that Vermont is the best-governed state in the union. The governors of Maine and New Hampshire get only $2,00o apiece. Perhaps the low rate in these two sates is due to the local over production of politicians and conse- quent decline in the price.
 However, there are some reasons why the governors of British colonies or provinces should receive more pay than governors of sovereign American states. Though it Is expected that an American governor shall be reasonably hospitable. he does not commonly live in the public social view at all. The British governor is the head of society within his domain. Commonly the American governor Is not In society at all. and does not pretend to be. He is public functionary. an official; social Functions are not in his line. He does not spend a 1.-the of the amount, in social way. but the British colonial governor does, nor need he maintain one-half the number of servants of one sort and another. Republican sim

HIGH SPEED POSSIBILITIES.

Actual tests of high-speed possiblli-
 ties In electric railroading in Germany
 have not as yet taken place, as was wrongfully reported some weeks ago, but elaborate preparations are beirg made, and Consul General Mason at Berlin gives some account of them to the American state department. The line to be usedis the military railroad. running 1S.6 miles southward from Ber- lin, the imperial government having entered heartily ir'so the support of the scheme. The experiments are to be undertaken by company especially or- ganized to'bear the expense It's presi- dent Is Doctor Schultz, chief of the i'm periaI railway administration, and it includes as members some of the lead

l The sort of man to whom the state of South Carolina turns itself over, if | it refuses to accept the MIR good advice of MT. Mo TILLMAN'S Laurin, stands re- PRINCIPLES. vealed in the brutal speech made by Sena- { tor Benjamin R. Tillman. at Mari nette, Wis. In an entirely unnecessary and characteristically offensive man ner, Tiliman proclaimed to far north ern audience the extreme "befo' de wah" slave-driving principles on the subject of the negro's assumed unfit ness to live anywhere else than we'll under the white mans heel. The whole speech carries us back to the past Would you have your daughter marry a nigger?" the old pro-slavery orator used to exclaim. Why don't you ex- terminate your black population by in- termarriage? asks Tillman. Then he goes on to declare that Booker T. Washington ought not to be permitted to make artisans and tradesmen of the negroes. because that would put them on an equality With white arti- sans and "intensify race hatred" Mir. Tillman says there were more Christians among the four million slaves, before emancipation. than there are among the nine million blacks of the present day. It does not seem to occur to him that this statement Is a worse reproach to the white people of the country, and particularly to those of the section in which the negroes chiefly live, than 1t is to the negroes themselves. The backs are of their household. If they have gone so far astray, the household Is morally re- eponsible. If they are relapsing into organism and barbarism, they must have been horribly neglected by their natural guides and guardians.
 As matter of fact. few self-respeet- ing southern men proclaim the repug- nant and brutal doctrines which seem to rise with such spontaneity and such perfect inopportuneness to Tfllman's lips. If they believe in holding lynch ing fin reserve as a punishment for a certain crime. they may admit 1t. but they do not advertise 1t. They do not want negro domination in politics; but they recognize the fact that education and an attitude of conciliation and helpfulness toward the negro are right and necessary. If the negro can make himself the artisan. the skilled and in- dispensable workman of the south. so much the better for whites as well as blacks.
 MT. McLaurin and the new senti- ment in the south which he represents, offer salvation from this cd confeder- -brigadier and slave whacking spirit, There are some hopeful signs that South Carolina is ready to ac- cept the salvation, Tn Tillman the people may see the evil and revolting alternative that is offered them.
