BERLIN, April 7.-The bequests of MT. Rhodes are regarded at court as constituting an enduring impulse to good feeling between Germany, Great Britain and the United States and the colonies of these countries and as giv- ing more substance to the vague group ing of the Teutonic powers. ."The earth belongs to the vital living peoples, and these should act as one when inefficient powers check advancement' is another utterance attributed to the German em- peror when his majesty was speaking of Prince Henry's trip and the need of q better understanding with the United States.

CORRUPTION IN ST. LOUIS.
Sensational Report by Grand Jury
 City Officials Indicted.


 ST. LOUIS, April 7.--Most sensational charges are made by the grand jury which has been Investigating bribery and official corruption in the municipa assembly in its final report to Judge O'Neill Ryan in the criminal court.
 The following indictments were also returned: Bribery. Robert N. Snyder attempted bribery. Edward Butler and John II. Becker; perjury, George J. Ike brrch.
 The report declares that the people of St. Louis have but a vague concep- tion of the extent to which corruption and venality have for the past ten years existed among the sworn officers and public servants. It finds the true condition of affairs almost too appall- ing for belief. A tribute is paid to Jo- seph W. Folk, the circuit attorney, un- der whose leadership the investigation is being made.

RAILROADS..

According to the st recent of Jap
anese government reports the railway
system of the county is being steadily
developed. Since the government built
its first Inc of eighteen mics from
Yokohama to Toxic, in 1872. a great
trunk line Of 200 miles has been built,
and the total mileage in the country in.
creased to 4,021. 1,059 miles being own
ed by the government, which in 1900
handled liz, 0 900 passengers and a.
600, 900 tons of freight. NO private con.
struction was done until 1888, when
the government had 1S1 miles Of rail.
way under operation, and it was not
until 1889 that private enterprise be-
gan to lead government effort. At the
end of 1901 the state had 1,017 miles Of
new line under construction and the
private companies had 81 miles pro-
jected.

LET'S SAVE THE MONEY.

II the Missourians persist in assert
ing that the st. Louis Worlds fair
cannot be held next year, about the
best thing New Mexico can do next
winter would be to apply the appropri-
alton made for IN exhibit from this
territory to the educational institu-
tions. II is questionable whether the
exhibit from this territory would do
much good. 1t is sure hat If the date
of the big fair is to be changed, or if
the matter of holding the fair next
year is in doubt, that it will be i'm
possible to get together a creditable
exhibit from New Mexico. If the terri
torial commissioners go to work this
year and get together a representative
exhibit the expense will be consider
able. If the fair is not held next year
this will be money and labor wasted.
IL 1t is to remain uncertain when the
fair is to be held, it would be useless to
try to gather an exhibit. Up to date the
commission has held the fund intact,
and The C-..zen is in favor of giving
up the idea of trying to make an ex-
hibit at ST Louis, and will urge that the
next Legislature repeal the act provid-
ing for a commission and an appropria-
ton, and tina, the money collected up
to that time be devoted to the educa.
ton of the children of lew Mexico.

VOTE THE REPUBLICAN TICKET.

There are many good reasons why
every nominee on the republican tick
ct should be elected next Tuesday.
The nation and the territory are under
republican control, and II would be
glazing evidence of lack Of good judg.
ment on the part of the people Of tine
city to defeat the excellent ticket put
IN the field by the republicans, This
city has in prospect many enterprises
that will be aided II it is safely in the
republican column. There is no rea-
sonable argument in favor of the demo-
cratic ticket. At home or abroad a
democratic mayor could not help the
city in any way whatever. In this day
and age it is a sign of retrogression
and decay when a city is governed by
democratic officials. No new sidewalks
are built, public enterprise is strangled
and crimes increase. During the past
year Mayor Marion had a republican
marshal and four republican aldermen
to help him push things. Otherwise,
Albuquerque would have slumbered
and taxes would have increased.
