The AMERICAN POLICE
Count Won B~ernsdOrf Gives Appre-
ciative Narrative of His Visit to
America.

Berlin, March 12.-Count Won Berns-
dorf, president of the Potsdam Police
who recently returned to Germany from
the United States, has submitted to En-
peror William a written narrative of
his experiences and observations in
America, with appreciative notes on the
New York police. The police president
and his five travelling companions, four
young guardsmen and a junior attachee
of the diplomatic service, happened to
be sent this wise. The emperor was
talking to a group of sub-alterns at the
casino of Potsdam, early in December
and asked them where they were going
for their holidays. One was going to
Paris and another intended to visit
Bohemia.
Why don't you go where you can
earn something's" interrupted the m
peror. Go to America. o shall go
IS my guests and tell me all about it
when you come home"
Count Won BernSdorf, with a detec-
tive sergeant detailed by Police Com
missioner Greene, studied the police
system of New York The thing which
most Sstonished him was that he was
not bothered in the streets by d%iSSolute
m The count told a newspaper
correspondent that he especially adj
mired the size of the New York police
men, their smart uniforms and their
courtesy, and he referred in his report
to the large, well ordered stations Of
New York and contrasted them with
the rented rooms occupied by the Ber>
lin police. But" the oun added us
ing a recent addition to his vocabulary,
The Americans have money to throw
at the BIRDS
Since his return Count Won Bernsdorf
has timed the Berlin firemen in re-
spending to calls. He found that 1t
takes three or four minutes to start an
engine here n contrasted this with
New York's thirty seconds to do the
same thing.

He is Charged With Grand Larceny
and Attempt to Bride.

New York. March 12.-Dr. r. c.. Flow
err was arrested today on a warrant Sc
cured by Assistant District Attorney
Caravan charging him with grand lar
ceny. He was held in $4,000 bail for
examination on Monday. The charge is
in connection with the sale of mining
stock which Mrs. Isabella Gray Taylor
alleges DR.. Flower induced her to buy
under false pretenses. DR.. Flower was
mentioned by Mr.. Garvan in his aft
davit asking for an order to exhume
the body of Theodore Hagaman.
Mrs. Taylor in her affidavit alleges
that on February 2sth she had a talk
with DR.. Flower at his office, about a
certain company. She alleges DR..
Flower said the company was paying
2 per cent. a month and that she CAV
DR.. Flower $500. Subsequently she al
leges. Andrew D. Meloy informed her
that the company never had made any
profits.
Assistant Attorney Caravan said
twelve hundred stockholders were in
terested to the extent of $4,000.
DR.. Flower was arrested on a Sec
ond warrant charging him with at
tempting to bride a public officer. He
was arrested on this charge owing tC
an affidavit he is alleged to have made
charging Andrew D.. Meloy with the
same crime, and it is alleged he &C
knoWledged having given Meloy $2,50(
to give to Police Inspector then cap
tain) Titus. Meloy was also arrested
on a warrant or the same charge.

An Absolutely Unique Statesman

Although Organism is, and long has
been, a decadent factor in American
politics. the gentleman from whom it
takes its name is still an interesting
figure. His wonderful career has been
spectacular to the last degree ever since
he began the speech which captured
the democratic convention of 1896 and
enabled him to carry off the nomination
that logically and equitably belonged
to Richard P. Bland. Sensationalism
has been the chief characteristic of all
mat ne mas done since the democratic
party made that fateful mistake. Of
all men who have obtained great promi-
hence In our political annals, he is the
most unique. At no point does his rec
ord coincide with that of any other
leader. 1t is but a fair Illustration of
his eXceptionableness to note that he is
the only man to whom a defeat in a
presidential race, with the resultant
condemnation of the policy of which
he stood, mas been the gateway to fl
nancfal success. Another illustration
will suffice, although there are hum
dreds of them available. He stands
alone as the one defeated presidential
candidate who, in opposition to the con-
servatism of his party. has used his
~ piONoA NV
and Inauguration of such a new and
startling departure from American
policy and traditions as was involved in
the sovereignty of the United States
over the Philippine archipelago. More
n to any other man, except the
statesman who triumphed over him at
the polls, is this republic indebted to
Mr.. Bryan for that plunge into the
Orient. But there was this difference
between the successful and the unSuc-
cessful Ieader-McKinley believed in
that new departure, while the Spectacu-
lar and sensational Nebraskan did not
believe in it. One promoted what he
believed would rebound to the honor
and prosperity of his country; the 9TH
er was willing to get his country into
trouble as the means of furnishing "the
paramount ISSUE"
Mr.. Bryan's greatest personal tri-
umph was achieved in forcing his con-
demned issue, in 1900, down the throats
of a convention a majority of whose
members detested it and had no doubt
that its ~readoption ean another and
a worse defeat. And this brings us to
the Nebraska statesman'S latest de-
claratiOn: Never will you find the
Gold Democrats capturing any demo-
catic convention of national impor-
tance; the very idea of it is absurd"
1t may be absurd to Mr.. Bryan Whose
political life depends on the pretense of
keeping life in a dead issue; but his
peculiar situation renders it impossible
for him to take a fair view of democ-
racy's situation. An overwhelming ma
jority of that party is not only tired of,
but disguised with his issue. He calls
all who are opposed to 16 to 1 Gold
Democrats" HA is likely to find them
las good as gold" before the next con
vention meets. The signs of the times
indicate that they will cut loose from
any currency debasemenI scheme.
They know that is the only oad hat
has a possible victory at it's terminal.

WOMEN ARE DRIVERS
Take the Place of NOn-UniOn Men.
Not Interfered With.

Kansas City, Mo-, March 1.-TWO
women, Mrs. G.. B. Evans and Mrs. H.
S. Meyers took the places Of their hus-
bands, non-union men, today and drove
trucks about town in defiance of the
striking transfer companies drivers.
They met no interference, but instead
the men lifted their hats as the women
drove by and cleared the way for their
vehicles. Although it was still neces'
sary for the police to remain on duty
about the barn there was no violence
today aside from two or three trucks
being stopped. A big crowd of strikers
and sym~pathizers followed one wagon
driven by a ~non-union man and wher
a few stones were, thrown he willingly
returned his team't to the barns. About
fifty additional men went out during
the day, making a total of 255 and as
few men are hired in their places the
business of the transfer companies wa.
practically at a Standstill.

A FAMOUS CASE DECIDED
Supreme Court of Appeals ver
Decision of Law and Equity Court.

Richmond, Va, March 12.-In the
state supreme court of appeals today,
the famous case of hurry VS.. the Farm
Vile and Powhatan Railroad Company
was decided. The opinion reverses the
decree of the law and equity court of
his city. The question at issue in

gage bonds of the Farmville and Pow

six Of the leading Richmond banks held
these bonds is collateral security.
In October 1899, the Farmville and
Powhatan Railroad Company went into
the hands of a receiver and a question
arose as to what part of the road Sc
cured the bonds under the two existing
mortgages, the holders of the first
mortgage bonds contending that their
bonds were secured as a first lien on
the entire line. This was denied by
Murray, the holder of the second mort
gage bonds. The court held that the
second mortgage bonds were a first lien

following report, received at the navy

of the week, a percentage of "a. This
showing is most creditable, especially
after several months spent in the West

be given. I have also heard from a
number of citizens of Pensacola, AND
through the newspapers at this place,
(Pensacola) of the marked sobriety and
orderly conduct of the men on shore"

WHAT A TOWN CAN DO

We know of no better object lesson
for Western North Carolina towns
than is to be found in High Point.
Twenty years ago it was an insig-
nificant railroad station with a few
hundred inhabitants and apparently
no future prospects.
Today there are fifty-one manufact-
uring establishments in that town.
most of them furniture manufactures
which turned out last year 81, 500, 900
worth of furniture.
And what is the secret of this Won
derful growth? Simply enterprise, pub
lie spirit, push, determination.
OF course High Point has advantages
for furniture making. The law mate
rial is near at hand and labor Is cheap.
But these are advantages that half a
hundred Western North Carolina towns
possess in equal. and in some cases SUI
perior degree. Yet they nav not pros
pered and grown as High Point for
the simple reason that they have not
made the effort that High Point has.
1t is needless to say that furniture
factories in all of them would hardly
pay, but there are kindred enterprises
that would, for there are, many hun
dreds of different articles thai gre
made Of timber that one finds ready
at hand here in these mountains. Then
there are streams in every valley, or
o a nearby, to tur the machinery,
while labor is abundant and strikes al
most unknown.
The wonder is not that High Point
is thriving and growing so rapidly, but
that many other towns in this favored
section are not doing likewise.
In its history and caree there is
much hat other towns of this section
may study with profit to themselves -
