EASTER.

Easter day. with all its glad signifi- canoe and promise to mankind, was fortunately a bright day of sunshine and the large congregations at the churches gave evidence that religion is still maintaining its hold despite pessi- mistlc utterances to the contrary. Into what an abysmaI gloom would mankind be cast were there nothing but selfish handmade precepts of morality and ethics to tie up to and lean upon Without the promise of immortal life that Easter gives. mans existence would be cheerless and a dismal farce. and that bourne from whence no trav- eler returns" would be regarded with horror except by those to whom life had lost all charm and become a burden too grievous to be borne But Easter brings hope in place of despair and joy in place of sorrow. It is a beacon that points to light and immortality, and in all lands there were songs of joy yester- day.

Is bacillus which makes its way into the bodies of its unfortunate victims and produces an invisible aversion to physical or mental activity. If there is a germ of inertia. why shouldn't there be bacillus of pernicious activity and misdirected strenuosity as well? It is not fair 10 our South American breth- ren to assume that they are totally de- prayed; that they engage in throat cut ! ting and other bloody diversions from pure love of doing evil. In some de- gree, at least, they have been under tEe l influence Of American and European civilization for a great many years. To some extent they have introduced the forms of civilization into their govern ments and social institutions. Yet, de- spite their contact with citizens of the most enlightened nations and their commercial and diplomatic relations with Europe and the United States, they have scarcely more respect for law and order than the human race dis plapyed in the days of primitive man.
 If there are bacilli in the western hemisphere indigenous to the tropical regions which incite a people against its will and natural disposition to com- init deeds of violence and murder, our saVants ought to be able to find a rem edy- The antidote commonly used in cases of pernicious strenuosity has not proved a success. Repeating rifles, bayonets and cannon have failed to work a cure. When the South Ameri- can has introduced the germs of revo- lution and riot into his body, nothing will deter him from stirring up trouble, not even the fear that he will be shot or bayoneted to death. When he is un- der the influence of the bacillus of strenuosity-and that seems to be a chronic condition with him-he is like the Malay fanatic who runs amuck, killing right and left. The pugnacity of our tropical brethren cannot be ex- plained satisfactorily on any other hy- pothesis than that it is disease. The scientist who discovers the remedy for this disease, who will introduce in our tropical regions, for instance those germs which produce inertia, will de- serve much of mankind. It would be one of the greatest triumphs of this century if the ever-warring inhabitants of the Latin-A1nerican republics and of Hayti were inoculated with the bacilla of slothfulness and reduced to a state of innocuous inactivity. The imple- ments of war have failed to produce the desired result. Now let science take a hand and. if possible, transform the turbulent folk of the tropics into peace full and law-abiding citizens of the new world.-Baltimore Sun.

ND GENERAL UPHEAYAE,

Of course underlying the merger case decision was the fear that through the consolidation of parallel lines competi- ton would be stifed; and that it was dangerous to let few men have the power and right to fix arbitrarily the rates of transportatio ton. This was the vital point so we'll brought out in the late MT. Norris book, "The Octopus" :" But against this, the theory is urged excessive prices for transportation, es- pecially when by so doing they hamper their lines and in their territory. The railroads prosper only when prosperity reigns along their lines. Much legisla- ton and wise legislation has been en- acted prohibiting the building of unne- cessary parallel railroad lines. The building of the West Shore railroad across New York state and the great financial losses which it occasioned had potent influence in securing legislation opposing unnecessary paralleling. The New York Central road finally at great cost had to absorb the West Shore after the latter became bankrupt. Here was a case of practical consolidation that met with general approval. The United States Steel Company is an aggregation of transformations, but the steel trust has not stiaed competition and never can. So with the Sugar Trust and many oth- CTS. The theory is therefore advanced that these, companies do not fall under the decision in the merger case, and that that decision applies only to an- alogous cases. If this is not so the de- cision would apply to the Pennsylvania railroad, which holds a controlling in- terest in the stock of the parallel Balti- more and Ohio; the Union Pacific, which controls the parallel Southern Pacific; the Atlantic Coast Line. which is controlling investor in the parallel

THE PASSION FOR REVOLUTIONS.

THE PASSION FOR REVOLUTIONS
 Judging by dispatches published in the Sun yesterday from points in the West Indies and South America, our tropical friends in the western hemis- phere are enjoying an all-round "hot time" The enterprising revolutionists of Santo Domingo have captured the chief town of that republic after fierce battle. In the British island of Trini- dad a mob set fire to the government building at Port-of-Spain as protest against an objectionable ordinance. Some of the natives were killed by the police, while sailors were landed from his Majesty's cruiser Pallas to prevent a renewal of the disturbance. A dis patch from Managua states that rev. olution has broken out in Nicaragua and that martial law has been pro- claimed. In Honduras there is war be- tween the partisans of General Bonilla, the president-elect of that republic, and the adherents of General Sierra, the re- tiring president. In Uruguay the con- flict between the government and the nationalist party is about to be brought to close with general amnesty for the insurgents.
 If some of the learned scientists who are devoting their talents to the study of germs would turn their attention to South America and the islands of the Caribbean they might make discoveries which would prove blessing to man. kind in that disturbed quarter of the world. Why should the South Ameri- can and the West Indian take to riot and revolution as naturally as duck does to water? Is it because they are of fiercer and more turbulent dispo- sition than the inhabitants of other parts of this hemisphere, or is it be- cause they are the victims of sinister bacilli, germs of rampant and irresisti- ble strenuosity? Not long ago an Americtn cavant announced that in certain parts of the United States there

Louisville and Nashville; the New
 York. New Haven and Hartford, which formally took possession of the parallel New York, Providence and Boston in 1892, and of the New England road in 1888. The governments position in the merger case apparently is that a simple pooling plan was put into operation in the Northern Securities case through the semblance of a purchase. No great Overturning or upheaval outside of the merger case appears to be contemplated by the courts. although the contrary view finds champions in the widespread discussion of the case now going on.

IF SUSTAINED.

Even if the United States Supreme court sustains the Circuit courts de- cision in the Northern Securities mer- ger case and compels the restoration of the merged securities to their original owners, the same interests will own the securities of the three roads affected that own them now. A majority of these shares will still be in the possess sion of the men who act on the theory that their own interests and those of the country are best served by operat- ing the three roads in harmony. The Circuit court says the merger is in con- f1ict with the Sherman antitrust law. But by ordering the merger dissolved and the securities returned to where they were before the court recognizes and sanctions ownership of securities of competing roads, after all. What would be the result if the exchange back again is made? The dissolution of the $4OO,000,O00 holding company would be accompanied by the return of $155, 100000 of capital stock of the Northern Pacific and about $95, 5,O0O,0 900 stock of the Great Northern to the per- sons who deposited such stocks in ex- change for Northern Securities shares
 Of the 155,O00,0OO of Northern Pacific stock $7S10S.O00 was deposited by the Oregon Short Line Railroad company, which is owned by the Union Pacific Railroad company This is little more than half of the total issue of Northern Pacific stock The remaining $77,500,000 was deposited by the Nor gan-Hill interest, which, by virtue of it's absolute control of the Great North ern capital shares, is enabled to com pletely dominate the Northern Securi- ties company. Although the Hartman interest is now well represented in the directorates of both the Northern Se- curities and the Northern Pacific con- panies, it is distinctly minority repre- sentation.
 With the separation of the Northern Pacific from the Northern Securities combination the Hartman people, un- less they part with some of their hold ings, will be able to elect a board of directors of their own at the next Northern Pacific election. Such an out come will simply transfer the control of the Northern Pacific from the Great Northern to the Union Pacific.
 Should MT. Hartman be given the power to vote the Oregon Short Line holdings at a Northern Pacific election, he would naturally secure potent voice in the management of the Bur lington system, which is direct com petitor of the Union Pacific lines. It can readily be seen, therefore, that the effects of compulsory dissolution of the Northern Securities company would be peculiar and far-reaching.
