London Paper Advises Great
Britain to Form Working
Alliance.
DISCLAlMS HOSTILITY TO US
Predicts America Will GObbIe
Up South American states
and Formulate Pam
American Tariff.

LONDON. Jan. 4.--The Saturday Re-
view today prints a remarkably free
spoken editorial in which 1t strongly
advises Great Britain to form a work
ing alliance with Germany in order to
check the continued and apparently
inevitable advance Of the United States
into South America"
According to the Review, 1T Is the
wisest policy for this country 20 encour-
age the advance OF Germany in the
new world as the most useful counter
poise to the overwhelming predomin-
ance Of the United States which IS the
only possible outcome Of the existing
political conditions.
The Review disclaims all hostility
to the United States, but says:
The solid interests Of our own peo-
pie which is the basis Of which the
United States always works, is the
only sure ground on which 10 build"
Continuing. the Review says:
II we would only remember that
the Americans are to b. believed when
they describe themselves as actuated
by purely business conditions we would
save ourselves from large number
OF gratuitous humiliations and Inprof-
liable speculations in stocks having no
real market value, viz: the presumed
gratitude Of political and commercial
rivalry. With a strong European pow
er established in the South and great
world power in the North. the too ex-
uberant aspirations Of Pan-American-
ism would be checked. saving our em-
pire from a grave menace"
In conclusion. the Review points out
that the United States viii inevitably
gobble up the weak turbulent states
southwark when 1t is certain to formu-
late a Pan-American tariff union
against the remainder OF the world,
and tiren, controlling Cuba, Porto Rico
and the Isthmian canal. convert the
Caribbean Sea into an American lake"

STUDY OF LATIN SUPPRESSED.
English to Be Taught in Mexico City
Preparatory School.

MEXICO CITY, Jan. 4.-The depart
ment of public instruction pays a re-
markable tribute to the Importance Of
the English language by suppressing
the study OF Latin in the great pre-
paratory school in this city, where
young men are prepared for profess
sional careers and replacing it with
English. There has been much oppo-
sition to the change among advocates
of the old classical course, but the
modernists have triumphed.
English is now taught in many i'm
portant schools here and In other cit
les and in great schools under clerical
care, English has practically dispaced
French.

In the House Of Delegates the bill to re-
quire the County Commissioners of this
county to appropriate $500 annually to
private enterprise known as the Buckeys'
town Normal School, for which ten scholar
ships are to be given, was reported unfavor'
ably by the delegation but the bill was sub
stituted for the unfavorable report
With our public school year shortened one
term owing to lack OF funds, such use of the
public money as the above is calculated to
vex and discourage the real frienda of public
education. The principle is wrong and the
bill should fail.

The w. M. IL. R.

Four bids were submitted on Monday last
for the purchase of Baltimore city's interest
in the Western Maryland Railroad. But
one of these bids made any reference &c
Washington county g interest and in that bid
the offer covered the original Investment OF
the county in the road. Tie bidders were
The w. Va. Central Offering $500 Sl9.9s
cash.
The Reading offering $1,000, O9s SO cash.
The Hambctons Offering 100000 cas
$4OOO,0OO in stock the new company; tota
$lO0Oo,OO0.
w. w. Varney, representing syndicate
of out.sideof Baltimore capitalists, $30Oo'-
900 cash; 100000 in year; 81 100000 in
2 years, or total Of $5OOO,OOO cash and
$eOOO0OO in 8 per cent income bonds, a
grand total of $11 100000.
While there is difference Of So .49O,1S Dc
between the best cash bid, Qhat OF the W
Va. O. and the best bid made (Mr Varney
there is difference in the cash Offered Of
$500 S19. 90 in favor of the W. Va. Z. This
latter road is the one that offers to pay $434
900 for Washington county's holdings AL
the bidders except the Reading promise to
extend the road to the Cumberland coal fields
and to build the tidewater extension at Bal
tImore City.
In accepting either the Hsmhleton or Var
ney bid, Baltimore City would hold as much
or more railroad paper (stocks and bonds
as the original sum advanced to the estern
MARYLAND railroad and would be as much as
ever lin the railroad business" and would
have $4,000 900 dead investment in the stock
offered by the Hambletons or IS 100000
per cent investment in income bonds offered
by Mr.. Varney.
There seems to be little difficulty in decid
ing which is the best offer, so far as imh.e
date consideration is concerned the W. va
c. is in our judgment fal the most advanta
geous offer.
AS to promiaes for the future, the ". Va
c. is the only direct and positive one in the
lot: it says explicitly where it proposes tc
connect up the w NJ. with other big systems
and says point blank that it will build tht
tidewater extension, offering to put up 81,
100000 in bonds to guarantee the perform
ance of the latter. 1t IS the only one thai
does not either deal in generalties, or make
no promises at all, SO that both from the
cash point of view and from that OF the roads
future as it affects Baltimore Citys and
Washington county's interests, the W. Va
G. offer is certainly in very large measure
the best. Mcssrs McComas, Gather and
Greenbaum are the attorneys concerned
While it has not been 80 stated specifically
it is believed that all parties concerned are
identified with the Gould interests and thai
the W. Va. c. and the W. NJ will, in case
the latter is secured, become parts of thu
great Gould system, which will then reacf
tidewater of the two oceans.

ter referring to the certainty that the Boons'
boro-Myersville link of electric road will
be built and that the Baltimore 81 Frederick

also very probably be built, has this to cay
about something in which our people have
more direct interest: Gwen the project of
the Washington, Frederick and Gettysburg
Electric Railway Company may still be car
ried out in part To be sure, the plan of
having trolley line from the city of Wash.
ington to Gettysburg, Pa, run through Fred

unreasonable to hope that an electric rail-
way to connect Frederick with Thurmont
