By not having to pro rate with any
other railroad company OH this busi-
ness, the traffic is very profitable. For
many years the railroad was operated
strictly to the view of distribution of
coal, and passenger travel was a Sec
ondary consideration. The New York
state roads to Utica, Oswego and Syra-
cuse were acquired for the purpose of
seeuring new markets, and when the
New York Central insisted on an arbi-
trary late on the coal going from Syra-
cuse TO Buffalo, for shipment up the
Lakes, the Delaware. Lackawanna and
Western built new road from Bipg-
hamton to Buffalo, to avoid the pay
nent OF the rate asked, thus taking
from the Central business of a mill
lien tons per annum. which has since
grown to considerably more.
While the conservatism of the early
owners was marked, their business
judgment, as we'll as the large earn
ings Of the road, impelled them to

Chinese Exclusion Bill.

AS soon as the oleomargarine bill nese exclusion bill will be taken up It has already been reported. It re- news the present law, which expires by it's own terms in May, and a few amendments gathered from exper- fence are added.
 It would seem as if this bill would go through almost unopposed, so firm and general is public sentiment in it's favor. But 1t will not. There are those in the Senate who will urge that it will prevent the making of a favorable trade treaty with China, and new treaty will soon have to be negotiated and ratified. Heretofore the two have not clashed, and there is no reason for believing they will here after. But behind this talk stands a host of contractors who desire to use Coolie ,labor, and of transportation in- terests both of steamships and rail road lines. These will put up a big fight in the Senate, and long contro- versy is anticipated.
 Surely we have In this country enough races and colors without add ing a flood of yellow men from China. We have our proportion of the world 8 races at least, and the line should be drawn against the yellow men who refuse to be assimilated, and who have no desire to stay long in Amer , lea. A Chinaman never ceases to be a Chinaman, and the country does not want immigrants who are incapable of becoming American citizens

Who with age and envy was grown Into a hoop.
 Tempest.
Anti-Meruer and Antitrust.

There is nothing more interesting at present than the policy of the ad- ministration as to mergers and trusts. Suits have been begun, and the Pres ident has said that the laws must be enforced-that at any rate their scope and power must be judicially ascer- tained. It is known that the Presi- dent was unfriendly to trusts before the death of William Mckinley. His Minneapolis speech, delivered just be fore the tragic event at Buffalo, has often been recalled, and some see in the suits recently begun a determina- sfion to fight the mergers and trusts.
 How much there is in this can not be foreseen or estimated. It is known that the real control of the Re- publican party is disturbed, and is at work to prevent any serious enforce ment of the antitrust laws. The es- teemed MT. Hanna is their mouth piece, and no doubt a very severe in- ternal comotion is going on, all of course under the surface, and behind closed doors. The outcome Is doubt full indeed.
 President Roosevelt has convictions to burn, but his steadiness of pur- pose is doubted. He yields to su- perior forces. He accepts a conces- cession of 20 per cent on Cuban sugar when he knows it should be 50 per cent. He yields where yielding be- comes the better policy. So he may back water in the suits he has begun. Very powerful influences are urging him to remember investors and pro- motors and to forget the people, and 1t Is much too early to say what he will do.
 The suits have been begun, and their progress and history will be closely watched with view to as certaining how much earnestnes; there is in them. Attorney Genera
 Knox's record is not encouraging, but he may surprise all by his vigor and alertness in the suits he has begun He advised the bringing of them, and he has a reputation to gain or lose in tho ra.fnppno

Department of comerce and Labor.

Hearings upon the bill 10 create the department of commerce and labor have been begun in the house committee on commerce and I hope 1t will be reported favorably," said large merchant.
 ''The bill. it will be recalled was pass ed in the Senate severai weexs ago, but it has not received much attention from the house until now.
 An argument in favor of the bill was made by MT. Theodore C. Search. main- ly from the viewpoint rendered familiar in discussions of the matter by him be- fore the National Association of Manu- facturers.
 MT Search pointed out that the value of products of manufacture in the United States Is very much greater than that of products of agriculture, and that the manufacturing interests of the country exceed in importance those o. any other country in the world. Attention has al- ready been directed to the fact that the bill is in better position now than it has been at any prior time, but it is true also that it is in the house that inc advocates of the bill will need to do their hardest work. The head of the depart ment, if it is created. will be a member of the Cabinet"
