AN ATTACK ON FOG.

l For many years Sir Oliver Lodge, principal of the Birmingham univer- sity. has been conducting experiments | for purifying the atmosphere by elec- trification, and has made considerable progress in his discovery. It is cons sidered probable that his researches will ultimately be successful in com batting the dreaded fog. Sir Divers experin1ents have established the fact that fog can be dispersed if the at mosphere is electrified by charging the lair with electricity. The electrified air or polarized particles attract each
 other, just as iron filings are influenced l by magnet. When Sir Oliver Lodge was professor at the Liverpool Univer- sity college a hollow mast fifty feet | high was erected on the roof of the
 buildings, and by means of an insulated conductor the current was carried on the top of the pole, where it was dis lpersed by flame from coal gas.
 Though the fog was dense a space of
 fifty or sixty yards radius was cleared, and the incoming fog instantly dis
 persed. The scheme has been further
 developed. and it is expected that Sir
 Oliver will shortly announce a material
 advancement of the former methods for clearing the atmosphere and ex-
 periments on large scale will be com
 menced.
 l Good. Now if somebody will find a
 way to clear the human mind of fog
 there will he great progress.

Filthy lucre is a correct description of much of the paper money which is elu- sively going around. Congressman Gaines of Tennesse has set out to get a bill passed by which it shall be re- quired Of all national banks to return to the United States treasury for redemp- ton and reissue all paper money com ing into their possession as often as the amount on hand reaches one thou sand dollars, the bill also making appro- priation for expense of shipments in both directions and provides for con- tract wish a common carrier for such shipments. In his argument in favor of this bill Congressman Gaines charged that the government was largely re- sponsible for making the paper money Of the country '.unclean" by sending it to China, Japan. the Philippines, Cuba, Porto Rico. and other countries. and said it should bear the expense of re- deeming it, paying the transportation charges and all other expenses. MT. Gaines asserted that single bill which had been in circulation in Cuba and re- turned to the treasury for redemption, contained 2s2 kinds of microbes. These
 microbes, he asserted. were hungry and would joyfully feed on the mucous
 membrane Of either a Democrat or a Republican. Physicians of Philadelphia, he said, had been examining filthy money and had declared it full of
 germs.
 There can be no doubt that cleaner
 money would be a good thing. Also more.

RALFouF .aND WILLIAMS.

The interesting leader of the Demo- crats in the House many times suggests the Prime Minister of England, al- though we believe MT. Williams nurses the conviction that Englishmen are dis tasteful to him. MT Williams has, what is rare in American legislatures, an expressive and daring fair minded ness. In proclaiming that our prosper ity is independent of Republican meas ,ures, he can also proclaim that it Is in dependent of Democratic measures. His position on Panama called the eeuntrys attention to the ease with which he wears his party label He is graceful in admitting errors, and he is by no means remarkable in accuracy of detail In his languid and provokingly good tempered manner there is, of course, a more obvious, if somewhat more superficial resemblance to the British Premier Both, it is a pleasure to narrate, are free of any suspicion about their motives and ther records, through this distinction makes MT. Williams stand apart more saliently in our House than it does MT. Balfour in the Commons. Each went some dis tance into life before doing active work in politics. Both have the kind of in- telligence to which political questions are one part of life's complex workings, rather than the heart of everything. Mr. Balfour is half a dozen years older and has nearly twice as long a Parila- mentary experience. If the improve ment of MT. Williams equals that of MT. Balfour. he should be stronger man when his career has reached it's top.
 One marked superiority, for Ameri- can taste, he has. in humor, ho dis tinctly native in quality and persistence that it contains often a suggestion of the greatest political master of that weapon.

That the negro was created for some good pur- pose. time has demonstrated; but that good purpose is not participation in the government Of white men. The crime of all ages against civilization was com mitted when, in the "agonizing spasm of infuriated men" just after the Civil War, the North expressed its hatred of the white people of the South. in the amendments to the Federal Constitution which invested the negro with all the rights and privileges of citizenship.
 The influences which dethroned the reason, the dust and smoke of war bred prejudiees and snimosities have been blown away by the winds of com mon sense, the sections reunited by the spirit of Anglo-Saxon brotherhood, and that mistake stands out naked to all the world in all of it's stupidity and ugliness. It is the bastard offspring of the exigencies of war and unsuitable greed for gain. The nation should cor

The little country schoolhouse- Remember it; of course you do! Within the angle snugly set, Where two long yellow highways met, And saplings planted here and there About the yard, and boxed with care As if to typlfy, in turn, The youngsters caught and caged, to learn Around the rolling pastures spread, With woodland patches garianded, From which the breezes gladly bore Sly invitations to the door. Across the stills the bees soft hum Was mingled with the muttered sum, And from their covert in the vale In plaintiye pleading piped the quaiR With basket and with pail equipped, Clear eyed tan checked and berry lipped Athwart the pastures, down the road, They trudged to learning's poor abode; The pink sunbonnet, broad brimmed straw The bare brown feet that knew no law Of fashions last; the bundled forms That laughed aloud a cold and storms. What tales the scared desks might relate Of triumphs gained with book and slate! What lore the claoboards loose possess Of feats at noontime and recess. And doomed how oft the panes to see, Back up the road, and OCT the lea, Haste boy and girl, new worlds to find, The little schoolhouse left behind Oh. little country school!s In vain May critics hold you in disdain. The greatest lessons that you taught Were not by chalk and pencil wrought. As oped your door on fields and sky, So, likewise just as wide and high, You opened to the eyes of youth The principles of love and truth.

CHINESE IN THE TRANsVAAL.

They arc going to be careful about
 Chinese labor in the Transvaal. The authorities at Pretoria have published a draft ordinance which they intend to enforce. This document provides that | the laborer shall be employed only on unskilled labor for the exploitation of minerals; secondly, that he shall only serve the person introducing him; thirdly, that on the termination of l the contract he shall be returned with out delay at the expense of the import CT to the country of his origin. No contract shall be for longer period than three years, nor shall it be renew l ed for more than two years additional. Every importer must deposit q return showing the number of laborersS intro- duced and the place or places in which be allowed to trade or acquire, lease or hold land; every laborer must carry l dll puoopoiI lCiiC W duAc every year; the importer must keep a register of all laborers introduced, and l the laborers must reside on the prem
 ises in which they are employed. No | laborer may leave the premises on which he is employed without a per- init, and no permit shall be available for more than forty-eight hours. Any inspector or member of the town police 1 of South African constabulary may de- mand the permit and passport of any person who he suspects is a person imported under the ordinance if he be found out of bounds, and on failure to produce them may arrest him without | a warrant. Every importer must enter into bond for the return of his labor CTS to the country of their origin. and ! the government superintendent is to take all necessary steps for their re- turn at the expense of the importer. Stringent penalties are to be enforced | for all infringements of the ordinance.
