The bishop replied politely, but there
was an odd constraint In his manner
which lasted until he had bowed him
self out of the house after breakfast
What can be the matter?" puzzled
Mrs. Spaulding as she watched the
distinguished gentleman stalking down
the street. "Dick was so anxious he
should like us!'
Then a sickening thought struck her,
| and she darted up the stairs.
1t had been Mrs. Spaulding's custom
during the boyhood of her only son to
correct his failings by posting about
the house title placards which gently
pleaded with him on the error of his
ways. n week or two earlier. when
Dick was coming home for Il college
vacation, she had unearthed some of
these old signs and just for joke had
pinned them up in his room, like old
times. They had been taken down
later, but she remembered now that
after being summoned to the sick
f-'end the morning hnfo,e, she had led
her new-and not brillant-maid to
Dicks door and had said: 81 want
this room swept and arranged for Bish-
op Maxwell exactly as we did 1t for
Mr.. Dick last week. Do you under

With wings on her feet Mrs. Spauid-
Ing flew to the room the bishop had oc-
cupied, but at the threshold she paused
and gasped.
On one of the pillows was n staring
notice to this effect: please put your

There were at least fifteen of these
placards, the please underlined three
or four times in ensh. hnt-horrnr. Of
horrors-the largest of all was this, on
the inside of the door: "If you take

THE FORT MORGAN
RAILROAD PROJECT.
: &&&&&&%&*@&&%&&
Mobile Recorder.

The New York Tribune has received
special telegram bearing a Sioux
City date, which says:
After years of effort Sioux City
promoters, including a score of leading
men, have interested capitalists of
Philadelphia and St. Louis. and secur-
ed contracts with the Rock Island and
Louisville and Nashville roads for es-
tablishing a new deep water harbor on
the Gulf of Mexico. 1t will be at Fort
Morgan Ala, TO which the railroads
mentioned are being extended. A low
lying peninsula twenty miles long in
closes great haTbor over forty feet
deep throughout. This peninsula has
come into the possession of the capt.
talists interested, who will establish
wharves and terminals. The port will
compete for the business of both Mo
bile and New Orleans, asserting great
~ superior advantages because of
deeper water and larger area of it..
Millions are back of the movement"
In some quarters it seems this in
formation is received with confidence.
while in others it is taken with a bit
OF salt. However that may be. it is an
indication that the gulf ports are at
tracing attention even in the far
North and West, and certainly augurs
well for the future of this territory.
More and more every year it is coming
to be realized that the product of the
great middle country must find it's
way to the outside world through these
ports because this is the natural route,
affording as it does quicker and cheap
en- transit to foreign markets.
Naturally, it will be supposed that
Mobile, and even New Orleans. look
upon this movement at Fort Morgan
with a jealous eye. but not so. The
Improvement at that point proposed
could not be made without first doing
the very thing thai is necessary to
make Mobile the greatest point of ex-
portation on the gulf coast-cutting
away the outer bar 20 a depth of 80
feet. And should this be done, and a
real impetus given to Fort Morgan by
the construction of a branch road to
that point, and the erection of waTfage.
etc. it would never grow to dimensions
sufficient to really effect the business
OF Mobile, with her other railroad lines
her river connection with the coal,
iron and cement sections. and conven-
lent location for the reception of the
thousand and one other articles that
viii be required for expectation.
It is not improbable, it seems, that
there will eventually be something
doing at Fort Morgan, but hardly at a
date sufficiently early to interfere with
the business future of Mobile. In the
meantime, ii is to be hoped that the
Iowa capitalists will conclude really to
turn loose some of their cash in carry.
ing this enterprise to a point beyond
the paper stage.

RUSSlA'S POLICY
OF SUPPRESSION.
Savannah News.

There is no reason to doubt that the
Russian government will quickly re-
store order in its cities and suppress
any movement in the direction of a
revolution. Russia has a million or
more we'll armed fighting men, and the
indications thus far are they will re-
main loyal With such a force it is
practically impossible for the people,
though they number more than hun
dred million, to make revolutionary
Roadway without arms, ammunition or
leaders. But that the people are sui
len and have lost the faith they had
ii the Gar there is no doubt. They
will await their opportunity to strife
for larger rights. AZ
In the meantime it is probable the
Gar will pursue a policy akin to that
pursued by Nicholas more than eighty
years ago in putting down an insurree-
ton. The latter shot to death the
more aggressive of the insurgents and
sent the more moderate of them to
Siberia. The dispatches say that the
prisons are being filed with those who
have been prominent in the present
disturbance in st. Petersburg, some of
whom are of considerable prominence.
Il may be that some of them will be
shot and others will be imprisoned.
According to Mr. White, ex-minister
TIC Russia, the Gar isn't likely to have
much to do with deciding the manner
in which the insurgents shall be dealt
with. He is pictured as being with
out strength Of character or proper ed
ucation and nopeIcssly unfit to grappIe
with the situation" If that is the sort
of man he is he will be used by the
bureaucracy to deal with the unfor-
Inmates who have been arrested in
such manner as it thinks Will shut on
the possibility of trouble in the future.

ment among the Russian masses. how.

When the ships of war now under
contract or provided for have been
built, the United States will take place
next to France as a naval power, Eng
land still being an easy first Our
secretary of the navy is asking con-
gress for the wherewithal to outstTlp
France and stand next to Great Bri'
tain, assuring us we shall not need to
GO higher because England is the one
power with which war is practically
impossible" Why? We stand now
below Germany in sea power; can any
man give reason why we should desire
to outstrip Germany or France unless
we are to accumulate power create
than England's too? What quarrel
with Germany or France can be logi-
cally foreseen? If we indulge In thee
rles, why may not a conflict with Eng
land be supposed as we'll as with eth
er of the others?
There was a time when England, al
war with the continent of Europe, plac-
ed uncomfortable restriction on neutral
commerce and cur protests led up to
war. England is again Isolated and
like causes produce like results. II is
true that so much is changed that
war with England seems impossible;
is it not so with every other power
provided We do not change our policy
toward them? How can we be brought
into conflict with Germany or France
or Russia? We think the theorists
would be sorely puzzled to concocr
conditions to warrant the supposition
without proposing some radical chang
es in ourselves. Have we need to
make changes? Mr. Garfield started
cut with the proposition that we
should provide for the veterans of the
Civil War who needed aid, promising
they would soon die out and fifty mil
lions per annum would be the height
OF the burden. There are more names
on the lists than the nation had sol
diers and We pay three times that
sum, while the increase is constant

agree fully with Mr.. Bliss as to the de-
STABILITY of a better and a cheaper
service, but do not think he has yet
hit upon the proper method of mending
the existing evil.
The water company secured a char
ter from the city and whatever rate
was agreed upon the company has a
perfect right to charge-no more and
no less. No other company. having a
valuable and profitable franchise from
the city. would do different.
Wherein, with all the newspaper ar
ticles so far written. has there been
The least change effected? So far as
l can see, none Now as TO the cause
of all this trouble and the remedy.
The city council years ago granted
the franchise and left the consumer
unprotected. IF you go to the water
company with a complaint you are
told that the company is simply charg-
ing you its regular rate. The differ
ence to you individually is so small
that you cannot afford TO hire a law
yer to find out for you whether or not
the company4is charging you an exor.
bitant or an Illegal rate, and You find
than to pay lawyer or go to law.
But the city council should have pro-
vided from the beginning an officer
whose business it should be to inspect
all meters, and all complaints that
come to himlfor investigation. In fact
it should be his duty to see that only
such rates are charged as the wat er
company is allowed to charge accord.
ing to law, and his duties should ex.
tend to similar inspection in connec.
ton with the gas company and the
electric light company as well.
The people of the city will not com
plain about the cost of such an officer
providing he is q good man and is no.
selected on account Of some political
pull. Such an officer, who discharged
his duty impartially to the citizens,
the water company. the gas company,
and the electric light company, would
be valuable man TO the whole city.

and consistent-being indeed the only
incident in this connection can be
foreseen; win it be so with our navy?
IL it not already true that not even
England could safely attack US? Are
we proposing to attack?
Secretary Morton says he can pro
pose no better plan for guarding our
commerce than by building a navy
second only to that of England, with
which war is inconceivable. But how
could Germany or France or Russia
hurt US if we merely protect our coasts
and deny them the food with which
they expect us 20 supply them? Why
not enter into an agreement with Eng
land which would safeguard our COM
merce? Why not join with England
in guaranteeing the adequate policing
of the seas. What power or powers
would dissent from such proposition
Is not France and Germany and Italy
already starving themselves to feed
their naval ornaments? Is not even
England oyertaxing herself for such
purpose? Would not all be willing TO
Join in some equitable arrangement by
which the necessity for such burdens
could be obviated? III Mr.. Hay be
such a diplomatic power and able to
do so much for the peace of the world.
might he not accomplish something
along those lines for his people at
home as well as for China? Or are
all the diplomats playing a game to
set on foot these great ornaments by
way OF getting the last possible dollar
from the people?
At home to-day, we the richest peO-
pie on earth, are paying interest on a
debt so huge that all the money of the
earth would be insufficient to pay half.
Is it good business to run in debt?
Have we any excuse for this cOndi-
ton? Shall We never see the day of
payment dawn? Il am an expansion
list" says Mr.. Morton. But shouldn't
we lift the mortgage off the home farm
before we buy more land?

THE STREET CAR COMPANY
ADOPTS SOME GOOD RULES.

The new rule which the. street car
company has just put into effect, pro-
hIbiting passengers from riding on the
front platforms of their cars is good
one, and it should be rigidly enforced.
The company's other departure, that
Of providing gates for the front ends OF
the cars so as to prevent passengers
from getting on and of there, is also
a very commendable thing.
These two departures constitute two
things which should have been done
long ago. but the fact that they
are being done now is a matter for
which the street car company is 10 be

and from getting off on the wrong side
OF the car, the possibility of serious ac-
eidents will be reduced to the mini
mum.
1t is possible that certain class of

when the rules which the rest of the
public observes are applied to them,
may give the conductors some trouble
In enforcing the new rule. This. how.
ever, should not deter the street car
conductors from doing their duty and
enforcing the rules. The majority OF
the public will approve their action
whether the small few do or not. and
the danger to human life will be lessen

rules are observed or enforced.
