BY a vote of 43 to 26 of the Chicago

Labor is SO scarce about Fredericks-

men will be put to work.
The Cigarmakers union charges Samuel

WHAT THE COUNTRY WANTS

An examination of the text of the two
bills introduced in the senate for fha
regulation of interstate commerce fails
to show that either of them is adequate
to meet the situation which confronts the
Interstate railroads and the country. The
interstate commerce law has broken
down. 1t has been of no service in put
ting a stop to dishonest railroad ad-
ministration. 1t is not necessary to go
into the question whether that result is
due to the commission or to the law. L. is
enough that the law, as at present ad-
ininistered, is a failure, and that some
Sufficient remedy, which will put an end
to rate cutting and the ouner forms of
favoritism in railroad administration. is
necessary.
The tone Of the discussion thus far mas
shown that there is little knowledge cur
rent generally as to the necessities of
the case. The statement is heard. for in
stance, quite freely, that there must be
adequate prevention of existing evils or
that public ownership will become a ne
cessity 1t is heard urged, also, that open
competition is essential to just treatment
of the public by the carriers. Those who
are most strenuously urging that theory
are doing SO for their own personal ends.
and six months hence, in case congress
were called on to act on the question of
maintaining or ending the policy OIL COM
petition under all circumstances, would
probably be heard with equal vociferation
urging the opposite view.
Since the general introduction of rail-
road carrying there never has been a nub-
nc inquiry conducted into tie general
subject Of railroad administration. It Is
one on which the profoundest Ignorance
prevails among the people. The move
ment of concentration of interest among
the great trunk lines continues, and in
the single case of the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific. that policy is be,ng
held up before the country as being
fraught with danger to the public well
fare. 1t is safe to say that if there nre-
vailed even rudimentary knowledge OF
railroad economy no such view wou1d
find entertainment by any intelligent
man.
In order to give the public that en-
hghtenment on the subject of the conduct
OF the great carrying interests of the
country, and of the rules which underlie
1t and of the vast mutual obligations
which exist on the part of the shippinr
public and the railroad officials to aid IN
the equitable extension to all the people
of the great blessings which come from
the development of our internal carry.
tng system, there should be broad gen.
eral inquiry made into railroad economy
and management.
Through that inquiry can be secured the
knowledge necessary to determine Just
the extent and the character of the con-
troll which should be exercised over the
carrying corporations. and the powers
with which the commission can be in

Tanmany Breaks From Croker
NEW YORK, Feb. 18.-Tammanv's first
tangible break from the control Of Rich
ard Croker took place last week. when
practically two-score of the old chief s
personal friends were deprived of votes
IN the Tammany executive committee.
The general committee, acting in APP
prevail of a plan formulated by the ex-
! ecut1ve committee, boldly set aside the
final orders left by Mr. Croker when
he sailed for England about three weeks
ago. He had paved the way for an en-
1arged executive committee which he
would be able to control regardless of
next falls primaries or any combinations
Which might be made against him in the
Wigwam.
At its first meeting after his departure
Croker's well-laid plans were swept aside
and the voting authority of the organiza-
ton was lodged again in the elected dis
trict leaders.
FIRST English Lutheran Church.

st. James church, though it bore un-

English Lutheran church in New York.
If 1T should date back for its beginning
to the earliest records of the congrega-
ton, 1t would be more than 100 years
old. For it was originally organized out
OF the old Dutch and German Swamp
