Canadians Guessing the Court"

Our Canadian friends are disgruntled,
and, naturally enough. are "cussing the
court" II is. in the main. useless pro-
ceeding. And yet there is comfort In It.
Your really philosophical loser Is rare
bird. and this means of relieving our feel
ings in the hour of defeat is given to us for
a good purpose. The more violent our out
burst at the start the sooner our anger
subsidies and we are able to adjust our
selves to the adverse conditions imposed
Let us hope then. for our neighbors across
the line "a happy issue out of all their
Affections They are at present very
angry. and the sooner for that fact, if the
rule holds good. will regain their COM
posture. and resume the even tenor of their
way.
Nor are they the only people disappointed
by the decision of the London tribunal.
Strangely enough. there are few In the
United States who had hoped for differ
eut result. and expected it. They did not
go to the extent of desiring Canada to win
though they could have utilized such
finding in their business-but had set their
hearts on a division of three and three. and
a revival of the old bitterness and strife,
with prospects of an armed clash. Then we
should have seen them swagger forward,
with rousng accounts OF the national hu-
initiation. and resonant demand for the
rebuke of the administration at the polls
for having submitted a clear case to formal
argument. The line of attack had already
been outlined, and a formidable array of
adjectives marshaled for Che fray.
But the United States has won and the
President has won. In disappointing those
who constantly picture him a dangerous
man for the country to have in the White
House. he has increased his hold on public
respect both at home and abroad He has
given the most signal proof of a desire for
peace with our friends across the upper
border and his reward is a victory for
peace and a vindication of his Judgment.
Both the United States and Canada are
gamers by the settlement of controversy
which contained the elements of trouble
when played upon truculently in either
country.
While they have something in common in
their disappointment. the Canadians and
these few Americans cannot mingle their
tears. They must weep apart. If a meeting
were possible it might be held at Toronto
or Quebec. with the Canadians exhaustinS
their Indignation upon Lord Alverstone, and
the American squad bemoaning the beastly
good fortune of Theodore Roosevelt.

Strolling Missionaries.

The visit of Brother Dowie and his CO.
horts to New York recalls the fact that a
squad of the Salvation Army is somewhere
in the feud section of Kentucky labor1ng
with the natives. There have been no re-
ports for a week or so. A spectacular start
was made. and the accounts were reason.
ably full and entertaining. At Jackson, in
bloody Breathitt several meetings were
held. and were well attended. AT another
point remote from the railroad, some moon
sinners were surprised while distillng their
mountain dew. and for a moment 1t looked
ticklish for the intruders. But when con-
WINGED that the visitors were not revenue
officers. the moonshiners grew polite and
cordial after their fashion and submitted to
prayer. OF course cheating the government
out of its taxes was resumed Immediately
after prayer was over. AT another point
the visitors narrowly escaped the line Of
fire in free fight at roadside picnic; but
the fire was not intended for them. Since
then all has been silence.
But there need be no uneasiness as to the
visitors. They will meet with no intended
harm or incivility. They have but to an
nounce their mission and show their sin
cerity to be assured Of respectful treat
ment. The people in those lonely places are
are hospitable to well-meaning strangers.
The method of the Salvation Army will Sc
cure their attention, but probably only be-
cause of it's spectacularity. The noun
taineer has heard the sacred message from
the lips of good men of his own locality, has
knelt in prayer with them, but still he
shoots when his enemy comes in sight. He
is not likely to be cured of that by a stroll
ing band of missionaries from a distance
whom he meets but once or twice. He may
a month afterward be able to recall and
describe the red band on their hats and
bonnets. and the effects OF their drums and
horns and tambourines in the deep gulches
and on the mountain sides, but their words
are reasonably certain not to induce him to
throw away his gun, or confine his fire to
game.
The S.-vationists in Kentucky and the
Dowieites in New York will be equally I'M
successful as mere tourists What they.
might accomplish by making their home
are solicitous Is another question. But
both are up against a difficult proposition
of long standing. The Kentucky feudist has
his failing in his blood and bones and ira
ditions. and the wicked New Yorkcr--in
many particulars a much worse man--is
hourly surrounded by temptations with
which he has been familiar, and to which in
some measure he has been a slave, from his
earliest recollectionS e.

The Tunnel.

1t is gratifying to note the disposition on
the part of the engineers of the Pennsyl-
vania railroad to plan the southern-connec-
ton tunnel on the lines of the greatest
safety. Chief Engineer Browns notice to
the Commissioners Of the desire to amend
the plans to include elevated foot-ways
along the tracks indicates this purpose. It
has already been observed that the North
river tunnel scheme includes this feature,
which Is suggested in part by the recent
Paris tunnel horror. In that affair the
catastrophe was made worse by the lack of
facilities for the people who left the burn
Ing trains to reach an exit. In case of &C.
cident In the North river and Washington
tunnels as now designed. the passengers
can leave the cars by the windows and
walk with no difficulty to a place of safety.

The tunnel entering New York will be
operated by electricity and 1t is to be as
sumed that the same motive power will be
used here. The New York tunnel will be
lighted from current Independent of that
furnishing the power. That system should
also be installed in this city. Thus II the
power circuit is interrupted by any accident
the tunnel will remain Illuminated Indeed
the people of this city expect to be given
the very best known to engineers at this
time in the construction and maintenance
of the tunnel which will form an important
part of the new union terminal.
