State Ownership in Australia.

Hon Hugh A. Lusk, leading lawyer ana
politician OF Australia has written an
Interesting article in the current North
American Review on the State owner
ship of tire telegraph in Australia. FROM
the article wo gather that Australia has
$4,000 miles of telegraph and has 5000
telegraph stations, while its population
is only 100000. Its mileage Is proper
tionatcly six tines greater with reference
to the population than any other coun-
try in the world, except New Zealand.
Tho cost of sending kilograms in Aus
and suburbs, the same number, OF words
to any point in the State would cost IL
cents and any part of tho commonwealth
can be reached for "a cents. The average
,sn Of messages Is two and q half times
as great in Australia as in America,
which is obvious when we consider the
great difference in the cost of service.
In the United States we have one tele-
graph station for every 5000 inhabitants
and the cost is from two to three times
as great as IN AuSllai'a. NJ. ~u7h 10
the authority for the statement that the
operation of the telegraph by tho GOV
eminent not only is not loss. but ac-
tually earns 3 per cent. on the cost Of
constructions The lines, however, were
originally built by the separate States
and not by the general government. The
reason for the greater cost in America
than in Australia Is found In the fact that
the average American telegraph line
would not be satisfied with so small a
dividend as per cent. a further source
of economy for Australia is in the Joint
operation of the postal and telegraph
services. In the rural district every post
master Is required to be a telegraph
operator and the postoffice Is telegraph
station, or one and the same place.

Practical Charity.

The ever present problem of the poor,
who are always with us, is becoming
daily, more pressing question for the
charItably disposed Of this city. The
summer with it's sunshine and compare
lively abundant food has passed, and the
chill of winter will soon drive the poor
TO seek help wherever they can get it.
In the last two years Richmond has
enormously Developed its capacity for
handling such problems The mission, Of
which the Rev. Mr.. Wiley is the head
has done and is doing magnificent work
Buchanan has undertaken similar work
with promise of great success. In the
meantime the Citizens Relief Association,
the City Mission and the various religious
organizations for the relief OF charity
have made long step forward by or
gambling themselves into the Associated
Charities. This organization is primari-

Mr., Royall's Plan.
{ The TInlcs.pisnalch:

Editor Of The Times Dispatch:
Slr,-Ihe statement OF Mr.. William j.
Bryan on the result OF the election and
the future Of the Democratic party is
one that should command universal atten-
ton. and for TWO reasons: First. that he
has correctly stated what must be the
future platform Of the party, and, sec
end, that all idea OF his leading the party
must be immediately abandoned ii the
party hopes for success. Mr.. Bryan well
says
the Democratic party attempted 10 be
conserva tive in the presence OF conditions
which demand radical remedies. It
sounded partial retreat, when II should
have ordered charge all along the line.
The Democratic party has nothing to
gain by catering 10 organized and preda-
tory wealth. II must not only do with
out such support, but 1t can strengthen
opposition of these clements The cam
paign disclosed That 1t is as inexpedlent
IRON the standpoint Of policy. as It is
wrong from the standpoint Of principle
to attempt any Cancellation of The In
duslriai and financial dcspots, who are
gradually getting control Of al the ave-
nues of wealth The Democratic party,
If it hopes to win success, must take the
side OF the plain common people"
The menace of the day is monopoly
The great corporations have "a right to
make all the money they can make by
faIr trading, but they have no right to
crush out the small men because they
are powerful and the others weak. It Is
the mission Of the Democratic party 10
protect tho great corporations in what
they nave got and in II perfectly free OPP
pOrtunlty TO acquire as much more as
they can acquire b. fair trading, but 10
intcrpose the whole power of the govern
incnt between them and ,the!. weak rivals
whom they are now crushing out b. brute
force and not by fair competition. If
