SATURDAY. JULY 30, 1904.

The San Antonio city council has finally taken cognizance of the end eat hog, and has decreed that he shall no more be tolerated. says the Express of that city. It has been declared by ordinance that it is unlawful for any person to monopolize the end of the street car seat, when by doing so other patrons may be disconnected Under the ordinance which has been adopted, the passenger cannot retain the. end seat when another passenger is about to enter, but must move up to make room for him. And he must keep nov ing as other passengers enter, until the particular bench which he occupies in part is completely filled. and until the first passenger in that row has reached the further end. If he. fails to do so he becomes subject to arrest and to a fine of not less than $5 nor more than $25 for each offense.

A reactionary tone prevailed ill the stock market during the greater DOT .tion of the week, says Banker CleWs, the result of profit taking and selling by traders on the short side. As con- sequence, the extremely optimistic views held in some quarters became somewhat modified and market opinion was more evenly divided. There is, however. substratum Of confidence based upon the splendid crop situation that holds the market impervious to all serious attacks from speculative sources. Another week Of excellent growing weather has been experienced, increasing the promise for cotton, corn, wheat, oats, hay, potatoes and other crops, and diminishing the chances of injury. Only one more month remains in which damage can be done. Drouth is now the single serious possibility; and it must be admitted there is little danger in that respect because the soil has been so well saturated by general rains and the plants have made such strong growth that they are in q good condition to stand lack of moisture, should that happen Absence of rain in August, the ripening month, is much less serious than in the previous Or growing months. As for frost, the dan ger from that source Is less than usual, since most of the crops, especially cot ton, are early. Complaints of chinch bugs and other injuries are unusually rare, while the rapacious boil weevil, which caused such q loss of cotton last year, and which may be counted on for some danger this year, Is exciting much less concern than year ago. In short, it is many years since the crop outlook was so favorable, and while after such long period of unin- terrupted progress some setback may be expected, still the assurances of to- day are as much in favor of both lib- eral and profitable crops to the farm CTS as could be expected

And now comes the proposition to push to completion the long projected tunnel under the English channel to lay rails and to run CUTS between France and England. All these great engineering feats are preceded by years of talk, and finally when the drill, pick and shovel are applied they are found easy of achievement. The barriers which nature iuterposed between man and man are being overcome. Cutting through mountain ranges. digging un- der broad rivers and setting bridges across wide chasms are nothing, says the Washington Star. Talk of the channel tunnel is century old, and negotiations between France and Eng land were entered into i'll 1869. There is the old Liverpool- Birkenhead tunnel under the Mersey, and the bores under the Hudson aild East rivers There are the long subways in Paris. London, New York and Boston. There are the tunnels through the Alps. In this country we have the Hartman project to tunnel the Sierra Nevada mountains and cut out most of the climbing on the old Central Pacific line 1t is thought that this great scheme will be undertaken when the Hartman inter- ests catch their breath after the vast outlay on the Lucin cutoff ''-that long fill and trestle over Salt Lake from Promontory to Lucin. Among the canals that after a long period of talk have been found merely matter Of muscle and money are the Suez, the Ikiel and the Manchester. The Erie cana is to be enlarged and the mighty Panama canal will be dug. An other of the big engineering feats ill prospect is the draining or the Ever glades, that vast swamp of saw grass and whip grass extending from central
 Florida to Cape Sable. Itis computed that the 'Glades" are above sea level. | and that the cutting of canals will fur
 nish vents to drain the land. The sur veys have been made. It has long been railroad scheme to build line from the east coast of Florida to Key
 West, by leaving the main land some- where about Biscayne bay and trestling from key to key.

Wouldn't be Held up

II is no; generally known, but is a
fact no less. that an attempt was
made to hold up the Nezperoe.
Kamiah stage some years ago. and
that the Circumstance was not re-
ported a, the time owing to the ex-
trcme modesty Of Charles Pomeroy
upon whom the a,temp; was made.
Mr. Pomeroy states that h. was
driving between Kamiah and Ner-
perce and had several thousand
dollars in gold in the boot Of the
stage when the attempted holdup
occurred. He had reached a point
near the center OF the school section
east OF town when q horseman ap-
peared from the south riding rapidly
toward him and when within hailng
distance shouted "hands up" at the
same time presenting Winchester.
Mr.. Pomeroy says he thought the
man only joking and replied in good
strong English consignine him TO the
place which Bob Ingsrsol said did
no, exist. This remark was fol-
lowed by a shot from the Winches-
ter which tore hole through the
back of the seat. just missing Pome-
roy by a few inches. Charley,
daunted, reached into the
boot Of the stage where he always
carried revolver and pulling il out
commenced shooting at the would-be
who Immediately
his horse and disappeared
n the direction of Lawyers canyon.
An examination of tho back of the
Icat showed that the ball in leaving
lad torn off large splinter. This
Jagged hole can yet be seen on the
old stage as the only evidence of
he only holdup ever attempted on

In the las, issue OF the Herald ]
note was taken 10 task for an al
legged inconsistency or double posi-
tion on the timber and boom bill
issues.
This is a mistake, and ! am con-
ident my editorial friend OF the

me in a false light and viii make the
correction.
While my personal views on these
matters are perhaps of no public
concern, still. in view of this issue,
! feel justified in saying that op-
posed both boom bills through the
columns Of the Tribune two years
ago, on the ground that they we're
private and no; public franchises,
assuming common carrier duties and
responsibilities.

the matter at Nespcrce during the
campaign. but simply the discussion
of the timber frauds.

take its choice.
