Evolutionary or Revolutionary

From the Philadelphia Press.
The corporate interests and corporation
leaders. suddenly halted in illegal designs
and projects by the Northern Securities
decision, have every possible reason for
trying to make the public believe that the
decision is revolutionary insead of evolu
tionary. Schemes are stopped. Vast pro-
jects are suddenly rendered futile and fruit
less. The market for "undigested securt-
ties" suddenly has an acute attack of in
digestion.
The men engaged in the vastest schemes
of our day. financial, railroads, in
dustrial and international trade, find the
one tool and instrument on which they had
relied struck from their hands. They are
irritated. For the most part, their schemes
work to the public good. Where they make
money the public makes more. The teem-
ing prosperity of the day would have been
impossible without their leadership. When
the path on which they expected to go on
to fresh triumphs Is closed by a judicial
decision they naturally find that blunder
has been made.
But this is no excuse for misleading the
public about it or trying to create the i'm
preston that the control of property, the
conduct of corporate affairs or the sta
bility of existing enterprises is challenged.
It is not

faction have passed and the time has
come when men desire rather to look cold
facts in the face and to profit by the ex-
perience of others. 1t is an age of competi-
ton. an age of comparisons. Men are not
satisfied to stand where their fathers stood
they are not satisfied with the fruits of the
past. We demand growth in the present
and look forward to greater rewards in the
future. We are determined to excel Others.
and even to surpass ourselves. This alone
Is success. There is spirit in the air that
makes us anxious to move forward and to
increase every possession In every depart
ment OF life. This is the eager and in
spring breath of the twentieth century,
and 1t is well to fnhale it deeply.

Comparison in Municipal Shame.

The shame of Minneapolis and the shame
lessness of St Louis are not to be COM
pared to the almost hopeless degeneracy
Of Philadelphia. Minneapolis shame was
merely the work of bad or weak mayor,
and the rottenness was confined to a small
part of the police force and was quickly
eradicated therefrom. The shamelessness
of st. Louis Is not so. bad but that
fourteen convictions have been secured OH
fifteen indictments, and the future there Is
not without hope. But PHILADELPHIA has
been for years comfortably stewing in cor
ruption and betrayal of public interest.
Compared with such disgusting depths as
the politics of Philadelphia has descended
to, Minneapolis little spot of scandal does
not even leave skin scar

quet of American beauties.
Mr.. Do.son is well known in the city

here since girlhood. She is a most ex-
cellent young woman and is loved by
large number OF friends.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dotson left Tuesday

shots at the negro as he ran. Lage
followed him, within hailing distance,

down near the glucose factory. The
garment was secured and the man
lodged in jail. The finding of a fur
boa, on South Ninth avenue, yesterday
may be explained by the fact that the
negro was on Turner street. 1t is
thought that undoubtedly the goods are
being stored in a fence in that part of
the city. The officers are on the alert
and are taking advantage of every bit

master d. NJ. Adams, OF Dillon. who
was killed by Great Western train
Saturday evening on the Third avenue
crossing, Tuesday night returned a
verdict that the death was purely ac-

railroad company or its employees for
negligence.
OF all the witnesses examined not
one could be found who saw the acci-
dent. None Of the persons on the de-
po. platform witnessed x, and none of
the train crew knew of its having hap
pened until 1t was all over. H. j. Stay
ton, the engineer, testified that he saw
no one on the track or near it at that
point, and the first he knew of 1t was
when he saw a lighted cigar fly up
from in front of his engine. He said
the headlight was burning and the en-
CINE bell was ringing. His fireman,
William Mitchell, was not in the cab
al the time. having just before they
reached the street started to the tank.
preparatory to the engine taking wa
ter Neither the conductor nor his
brakeman witnessed the killing. From
The evidence it is thought that Adams
must have stepped in front OF the en-

close upon him, so the engineer could
not see him from his side OF the cab.
