o INTERNATIONAL ADMIRATION.

EOH a. ~
The ninth annual conference oil in.
ternational arbitration will open the
part Of the present month and is
expected to be the most important yet
held. The attendance promises to be
larger than ever before, embracing
many eminent men, and It is believed
the reference of the Venezuela trouble
to The Hague tribunal and other event
of the past year will make the discus
slons of the conference unusually inter-
esting. The principle of international
arbitration has been steadily gaining
ground and this country has been
largely instrumental in promoting its
growth. That the Lake Mohonk con-
ferences have exerted a very valuable
influence in this direction is not to be
doubted and therefore these annual
meetings, in which some of the most
intellectual men in the country partici-
pate, merit more than passing atten-
ton, at least on the part of those who
can adequately appreciate the import
ance of their object.
1t is noted that the French Chamber
of Deputies has taken hold of the idea
of international arbitration, on the ba-
sis adopted by The Hague tribunal,
with marked earnestness. There has
been formed a parliamentary arbi-
tration group which includes represen-
tatives of every political party and
which has become a practical working
factor in all questions of foreign affairs.
The Paris correspondent Of the New
York Tribune says that if ever The
Hague tribunal is to fulfil the hopes of
its friends such n result will be largely
due to the persistent activity shown on
every occasion by these French depu-
ties, who have undertaken the propa-
ganda of arbitration with something of
the fire and energy of the old crusaders.
1t is said that France has taken hold of
the arbitration idea with a firm inten-
ton to carry it to logical conclusions.
Already a treaty between France and
Great Britain has been proposed and 1t
is contemplated to invite the United
States to enter into an arbitration treaty
with France. The movement has the
support of the foremost public men in
France, including President Loubet,
their aim being to have the French idea
of international duty obtain the sane
ton Of all civilized nations.
Our government will undoubtedly be
found most willing to promote this
movement, since it is entirely in accord
with American policy. The United States
has always been in favor of settling by
arbitration international differences that
can be adjusted in that way and it is
fair claim that no other country has
done more TO cause this principle to be
seriously considered by the civilized ma
tons. The arbitration conference soor
to meet will be representative of the
sentiment of the American people. Il
should find additional encouragement IL
Its work In what is being done in Franc,
for the promotion of international arbi
tration and may in turn stimulate tn,
efforts of the statesmen abroad who ar,
laboring in behalf of this great principle

Tie n Can on II.
Hartford Courant.

The American Can company vulgarly
and. OF course. mistakenly called the Can
trust, has just had it's second annual meet
ing. The report shows about 2 per cent
earned on the 7 per cent preferred stock
and no dividend at all declared. But, what
Is Of general interest, It brings the news
that the organizers Of the company took
over i2s plants and already have closed
up eighty-four, and It is expected 10 shut
up six more soon. And with all this
economy" which means untold loss to
individuals and communities, the concern
shows this beggarly profit. Now for some
more about these combinations being In
eVitable and beneficial.

Trolley Lines in Rural Districts.

New York Independent.
The expansion Of the trolley is working
along the line Of reducing manual labor
on the farm. 1t seems not improbable
that the whole help problem will be solved.
in some cases already this power is run
ming farm machinery and doing a good deal
of Homework. 1t is suggested that the
water power OF New York state be so far
collected as to run an electric road from
the lakes to tidewater, and that power
be all along the way sold to farms and
towns. The plan is entirely feasible and
we believe that something of this sort
will be worked out. Whether the outlook
be as hopeful as we think, It is certain
that the easy access to all parts OF the
country, and the removal of isolation, as
we'll as the sense Of remoteness from vital
%centers, will bring back to agricultural life
a large share Of that more intelligent help
which has been moving cityward. 1t will
tend largely to dissolve the rapidly form
ing masses and distribute them where work
is always abundant.

II G CHILD.

Katherine lyman in London Spectator.
He for whom the world was made
Cannot lift his heavy head,
All it's pretty curls puffed out,
Burnt with fevers, parched with drouth.
He, the tyrant, whimsical,
with the round world for his ball,
In a dreadful patience lies,
Old since yesterday and wise.
Like a martyr on the rack
Smiles, his soft lips burnt to black.
While the fever still devours
His small body. sweet as flowers.
Dreadful patience like a sword
Slabs his mothers heart, dear Lord;
Make him naughty, wild and gay,
AS he was but yesterday.
Little services he pays
with his kisses n his praise,
While his eyes ask pardon still
That he's troublesome and Ill.
He lies smiling with a FIRE
In his cheeks blown high and higher,
BY the wind OF fever famed.
Lord, his kisses or my hand!
Give me back my boy, l pray,
Turbulent, OF yesterday.
Not this angel, like a sword
In his mothers heart, dear Lord!

LAST OF WAR GOVERNORS.
Notable Group Recalled by the Death
of Alexander Ramsey.

New York Sun.
Alexander Ramsey, former secretary OF
war, former United States senator and
first territorial governor Of Minnesota.
who died at st. Paul on Wednesday last,
was the last surviving war governor. Upon
these governors depended the measure and
character OF the response to the presidents
calls for troops, and those governors in Of
nee in northern states when the hard
fighting Of the civil war was under way
gained afterward, most of them, distinction
In other fields.
The war governor OF New York was
Edwin d. Morgan, afterward United States
senator; Of Massachusetts,. John A. Andrew;
Of Ohio. william Dennison. afterward
postmaster general in President Lincoln's
cabinet; Of Indiana, oliver p. Morton, a
prominent candidate for the republican
nomination for president In 1876; OF
Illinois. Richard Yates. whose son is now
governor Of that state; OF Pennsylvania,
andrew G. Curtin; Of Michigan. Austin
Blair; OF Connecticut, William A. Buck
ingham;u Of Rhode Island, william sprague;
Of California, Leland Stanford: Of Iowa,
Samuel ]. Kirkwood, minister Of the In
terror in the Garfield cabinet, and OF
Minnesota, Alexander Ramsey.
Minnesota at the beginning OF the civil
war was a state Of small population. and
its Importance came chiefly from the fact
that II was at the beginning OF 1851 the
most westerly Of the states Of the country
with the exception Of those on the Pacific
Kansas and Nebraska had not then beer
admitted.
Minnesota furnished to the union army
$4,000 soldiers. though it's population at thu
beginning OF the civil war was only IT'S.
900, and on that record the fame o
Governor Ramsey depends chiefly. Vernon
furnished $4,000 men. New Hamsphir'
$4,000. Rhode Island $4,000. Kansas 10000
| Delaware 1900 and California 1900.

Respect for the President.
Indianapolis Journal.

IndIanapolls journal.
A gratifying feature Of President Roose-
velt's present tour is that wherever he has
gone he has been received by the people,
regardless Of political Affiliations, as the
chief executive Of the nation. Everywhere
he has been treated with the respect due
the Office and with a warmth Of welcome
indicative Of his personal popularity. The
president could hardly say, as Jefferson
did in his inaugural address, 1--WE are all
republicans, we are all federalists.' but
democrats ave lone their share in show
ing honor to the ONCE and the man.

Check on Tax DodginE.

bWTTdIU INVTVN0'
Another important decision on the tax
ing Of corporations has been given by the
court Of appeals. II has been the practice
of many corporations doing a large share
OF their business in this state, and which
have issued much of their capital stock
for patents, to organize under the laws Of
other states on the theory that capital in
vested in patent rights cannot be reached
by the taxing power OF this state. The
court holds that such investments by for
eign corporations may be taxed here. Thus
the principal motive for organizing in other
states is removed.

promptly shut up till the tax was reduced.
Now the drug stores there. on being taxed,

"one Of the trump cards that will be
played by the fusion forces in the approach
Ing city campaign" says a dispatch to the
Philadelphia Ledger, lis the excellent man
agement OF the Office OF the corporation
counsel by the Low administration, through
the head Of the department, George L..
hiVes. Not only have many improvements
been made and expenses reduced, but IL is
a remarkable fact that during the year
1902, for the first time in the history of the
city's law department, the receipts of the
once were greater than the expenses. Dur
ing the year the running expenses were
$424, 650.67. while the receipts, in the shape
Of sums collected by the department.
amounted to $3.50, 992. 80, or 1929, 900 in ex-
cess OF the expenses.
The pride of New Workers. in the big
ness of everything here is proverblal,
but 1t is not a familiar fact, even to the
residents Of this city, that Mr.. Rives'
department is the largest law ONCE in the
world. The magnitude Of the work Of the
ONCE can be appreciated when It is learned
hat at the close Of the year 1902, on De-
cember 81. there we're pending 16, 467 cases.
During the year no fewer than 9,09S actions
had been instituted. On neither side OF
the Atlantic can any other law office show
a record approaching the magnitude OF
business transacted in the corporation
counsel's department. The attorney gen
erals department at Washington and the
public solicitors chice in London are the
only two law ofices that can be named
where the business even touches the total
and aggregate amounts involved; but II
would take the combined business Of these
two ofices to exceed that Of the local de-
partment since the creation OF the Greater

The excise authorities estimate that not
over 8 per cent Of the saloons in New York

The total revenue from this source is esti-
mated at 81, $50. 900. OF this sum the state
receives one-half and local treasures the
remainder.
The net receipts in New York City will
be T,oo0,o0 which is $4,000 900 over that
OF last year. The certificates issued are
for six classes. If liquor is sold to be
drunk on the premises, the cost is 81, 200.
II not drunk on the premises, $3.50. The
third class includes the druggists and
where the liquor is delivered only on pre-

A company capitalized at $25, 200, 900 has
been incorporated for the purpose Of mer-
ging the milk supply Of New York City. A
railroad oficial in whose department milk
Is scheduled, has compiled a valuable array
OF statistics as to the amount OF this fluid
New York absorbs each day OF the year.
The result, in round figures, is 1,130, 900
quarts per day or Az, 900, 900 per year.
This averages 7 cents a quart, or S2S, S40,-
600, apportioned as follows: The farmer
receives 81, 400, 900, freight charges $3,1O0,-
900. profit s14, S4O,O 900. The promoters Of
the trust announce that purer milk at a
lower price will be afforded when the plans
to buy up all the dairy farms, milk routes
and wagons are contaminated. II would
seem that $25, 900, 900 is a large capitaliza-
ton for a milk company, but when the ex-
tent OF the consumption is considered, IL is
easily apparent that a large amount Of
money would be required to effect a com
bination of all the interests engaged in the
business. 1t is understood that several
thousand producers have already given op-
lions on their farms. More than $500 miles
OF railroad and water lines are now trans
porting the fluid TO New York and the limit
OF distance which 1t can be carried without
damage is constantly increasing. The rail-
roads are doing all that lies within their
power for the development Of the business.

RippIes on the Current Of Life in the
Metropolis.

New York real estate boomers are doing
a turn in the suburban lot line rlvaling the
smooth work OF their brothers In the west
in the vociferous days OF the SOS. With
the greatest care they are cultivating out
of-town buyers Of building lots In the
suburbs. Several concerns hardly try to
sell their land 10 New Workers at all, but
do most Of their business by mail with
outsiders-people living as far away from
New York as Denver. for instance, being
among recent purchasers. These out-of-
town buyers. curiously enough. hardly ever
visit New York to see the land for them
selves. They write for photographs and
maps. and the entire business, including
the passing Of title. is done by mail.
When this method was suggested to one
Of the largest Of the New York suburban
land operators five years ago he laughed
at It. who would buy land from photo
graphs?" he asked. why, most Of our
customers aren't even entirely satisfied
when they see the land itself, but seem to
want to put a chain on it before they make
their first payment"
But the man who suggested the idea
stuck 10 It and today he is managing an
out-of-town mail order land business that
is so big that It requires a suite OF highly
expensive ofices on Broadway, four type
writer's and three clerks.
