BIGGEST STATION IN THE WORLD

Nearly half the four blocks area for the
Pennsylvania station in New York has al
ready been cleared and the spring will
see the great space bare of buildings. The
purchase Of the real estate and the leases
has cost the Pennsylvania road over ten
million dollars; add to this the construc-'
ton Of the approaches and the station and
the total expenditures will reach nearly
$50. 100000. The final plans Of the station
have not been announced, and the archi-
tects say that such plans as they have at
present may be altered; but, as far as can
be learned, the structure will be some
thing after this fashion: The building will
rise only sixty feet above the surface, but
from the lower floor to the roof it will
have a height Of 160 feet. Its capacity
will be twice as large as that of any other
station in the world, and the train shed
will have twenty-five tracks It will be
500 feet long and 43O feet wide, thus hav-
ing total frontage Of $500 feet. The
facade will be OF granite, with great pill.
lars at regular intervals. The roof will be
of granite and iron The entrance will
be on Seventh avenue, and entering this
way you will find yourself in long ar
cade, danked by shops Of all sorts.

The Good Roads Convention.

The second annual convention Of
the American Road Makers associa-
ton is to be held in Hartford, Mich,
builders is to he held in connection
with the associations convention.
Among the subjects that will be con-
sidered is the matter Of national aid
in road building. However, the gem
eral public may be inclined to shy
at the somewhat, paternalistic idea of
federal government assistance in
building local roads, the farmers
ought to rise as one man and shout
for 1t.
A very large part of all the tonnage
moved by the railways and steamships
is first moved. by wagons. The rail-
way and steamship service has i'm
proved marvelously in the last fifty
years and gets better all the time, both
as to .cheapness and efficiency. The
country road Is no better than it was
fifty years ago. A half-century has
gone by without reducing the freight
charge from the farmers fields to the
railway station. He has clanored for
railway freight reductions and got
them; but he has not reduced the
cost of transportation on his own
line-the country highway. The rail
| ways have stopped taking excessive
charges out Of the farmer. but he still
charges himself a ridiculously- high
price for moving his own produce.
When, by reason Of bad roads, 8
farmer requires two horses to take tc
the market or station a load that
could be easily handled by one horse
on a good road, he is charging him
self excessive freight rates; so, also
| when he lanes his horses, breaks his
wagon, tears his harness and uses two
| hours where one is enough.

A Canadian Invasion.

Speaking of American invasions Of
Canada and other countries, did you
notice that Canadian invasion Of the
twin cities this week?
A bunch Of owners of Canadian
land living in Manitoba invaded ST.
Paul and were reasonably aided and
comforted, to use the language Of the
constitution, by a large number of
Americans owning lands in Canada
and DESTROYS Of disposing Of them for
a profit. The two groups fused and
formed an association having for its
purpose the translation Of good Ameri-
cans from American farms to Cana
dian farms.
OF course, they were mobbed and
tarred and feathered? oh, no; this is
1904, and instead, the newspapers re-
ported the gathering at length and
said never a word against it.

CRUELTY in THE GERMAN ARMY

Cases. of cruelty to privates in the Ger
man army multiply daily. The most re-
cent are that Of Franszki, a non commits
stoned officer in the Eighty fifth infantry,
who was tried on 1,520 counts of cruelty
and convicted on 100 of them. He got ten
years. The interesting point OF the case
was that Franszki had left the army and
was serving as policeman in Homburg
when the accusations were made. An
other interesting case is that Of a private
who was tried for desertion in Koenigs-
burg and sentenced to nine months inn
prisonment. After he had begun to serve
his sentence the case was reopened. 1t
was learned then that he had deserted
thru fear Of his life. Once a nom commits
stoned officer had threatened to run him
thru with his sword. The original sem
tence was. auashed and the. soldier restored
to duty. No,.Iess than ten "non-coms"
81 HIS regiment are being tried for cruelty.

What Gambling s.YPolicv2n

Does the city administration under
Mayor ]. c. Haynes stand for open
and unrestricted gambling?
While the policy of so-called IRE
strieted gambling, can be nothing but
a. compromise at best, The Jour
n al realizes that an executive might
conscientiously adopt such a plan. AS
advantages it affords Opportunity for
refunding such losses as cause unjust
financial embarrassment or positive
suffering to others, it provides for
restricted number of gambling houses
with careful Discrimination used in
admitting minors or the dinner-pail
brigade to the game. The plan also
obviates the bothersome necessity Of
constant watchfulness on the part Of
the police, for the houses permitted
to run are quick to report incursions
of new and unauthorized houses. The
great disadvantage Of the "restricted''
plan is that 1t inevitably opens the
way for more or less graft between the
gamblers and police and between the
protected gamblers and those desiring
protection.
In the history of the city no mayor
has dared take a stand for open, un-
restricted gambling. Even Ames kept
up a semblance of restriction, tho ap-
parently 1t was solely for, the, purpose
of collecting graft. Theoretically the
administrative policy has always been
no gambling or restricted gambling.
The antecedents of J. c. Haynes are
too good to encourage the belief that
he countenances the wide-open policy.
There Is gambling going, on here ney-
| ertheless. and the assumption is that
it is under some form of the restricted
policy. But for ten days or more a
Minneapolis lawyer has been trying
without success to secure the return
| of about $500 belonging to firm
whose employee gambled it away. In
this case the loss falls upon the firm,
and if. there is any excuse for the
restricted policy it is along this line
| Of protecting innocent sufferers.
T h e o u n a has no desire to
act as collecting agent for this claim.
The case is. cited merely as an Incl
dent of possible significance as bearing
on the mayors policy. He would un-
doubtedly deny that there was wide
} open gambling. But if gambling is
1 permitted under restrictions and : the

Mine Disasters.

The whole nation is shocked by loss
of human life in a burning 5theater'
Nearly 200 men were destroyed in a
mine explosion in Pennsylvania, and
the nation takes it as routine news
Why the difference? Because we ex-
pect that men who work in mines will
be killed. Mine disasters are so COM
mon that it is difficult for us to ap-
preciate their gravity. If we got over
this matter-of-f act attitude toward
mine accidents, would there not be
fewer Of them? It is probable that
human ingenuity has not been over
taxed in making mines safe. They
have always been unsafe and they are
left unsafe. Let us realize that min
ers' lives are precious, let us be as
much affected by their destruction as
we were by the death Of the pleasure
seekers in Chicago, and just as eager
to place the responsibility, and there
will be fewer Of these awful tragedies
which bring SO much suffering and
sorrow in: their train.

Fiction of the North.

Now departs the glory of Duluth;
now begins the glory of Winnipeg.
The glory of the zenith city was first
proclaimed by Proctor Knott, but it
has been daily polished and FURNISHED
by the string-fiend. Child - of 1.-the!
rhythmic eloquence' Of the immortal
Kentuckian, the glory Of Duluth has
been faithfully guarded and fostered
by the string fend--the newspaper
man of more narrative power than
facts, of more words than news, OF
more imagination than veracity.
But the world is nothing but flux
and ref1ux, as some old Greek ph1loso-
pher, whose name we can neither re-
call or care to, once said; and in the
north-under the British flag, we
must confess-there has arisen new
and vigorous band Of string-fiends,W who
tho yet in the first flush Of youth and
having it's defects, even now DID talr
to Guido their professional brethren Of
Duluth. It must be said that they
have one great advantage over the
Duluth news counterfeiters in that the
way has been broken for them; Du-
luth has educated the telegraph editor
to take what Winnipeg offers. But for
Duluth's pioneering such=a story as ap-
reared in the Pioneer Press this morn

never have appeared in print except
at the authors expense.
Nestpas (probably ne c'est pas) IS

respondent, about ten miles from
Winnipeg. Sunday night the inhabi-

nonading in the direction of Nestpas
Recent arrivals from England prop
ably thought it was the artillery OF
the American invasion they have heard
| so much about. But the explanation
came when eighty inhabitants OF
Nestpas arrived in Winnipeg to report
that the thunderous noise was caused
by the swapping of, boards and nails

freezing inhabitants fled In disorder

A Critical Contest.

The New York Journal Of Com
merce says that the time has come
when the republicans must either quit
talking. about reciprocity or else make
good their promises. The Journal
adds that reciprocity talk, unaccom-
panied by acts, cannot much longer
stand in the way of tariff revision.
That is about right.
That is why the fight in Iowa be-
tween Governor Cummins and his OPP
ponents is a national fight. = Governor
Cummins is "a reciprocity man. when
congress is in session, as we'll ais be-
fore; after elections, as we'll as before.
A victory for Cummins.i in Iowa will
surely result in strong demand for
an unequivocal declaration by the re-
publican national convention in favor
of reciprocity, and this time such. a
declaration will mean action by the
next congress if not by this.

is. really wonderful how warm it seems
