Governor Higgins II a characteristic state
ment 90 transparent honesty. completely cuts
the ground from under the feet Of the sensation
n1ongeTs who were trying to make much of the
mention of his name in Mr. Harriman's testi-
mony It is we'll that he has done this. but he
hardly needed TO Go It. Not one person in this
state for one moment honestly believed that
Governor Higgins's communications with Mr..
Hartman. whatever they were involved any
thing in the slightest degree discreditabie to
him. Moreover. Mr. Harriman's own statement
In its baidest form put upon the Governor and
the late Speaker Nixon not even the appear
ance of evil. Nothing but the most reckless
porverson of Gfr. Harrimans remarks aud the
most malignant imaginings of what might
have taken place under the cover of harmless
request for information could in the least
measure put bad face on the business. But
even perversions and imaginings fall harm
less in the light of the Governors simple ac-
count of what took place
Mr. Hartman, trustee of the Equitable,
made known TO the Governor and the Speaker
his interest in any legislation which might
affect the institution, and his desire for infor-
nation about anything which they might con-
template in that direction. That was perfect
Iy proper request on his part. and the Governor
might with perfect propriety, have acted upon
it. AS matter Of fact, no such legislation was
planned, and the Governor never gave any in
formation to Mr.. Hartman, or had any dis
cussion Of the subject with him. What Mr..
Hartman asked any citizen might ask. Prob
ably there is not in this city business man
of importance, an editor, or ANYBODY else ac-
cllstonned to dealing with large affairs, who has
not in person or by letter communicated with
governors and speakers proposed legislation,
objected to pending measures. or asked for
early information about policies in which he
was interested.
Such applications are part of the procedure or
free government. When we get to the point
that a governor can have no communication
with citizen, no matter whether he is a mill
tonaire or pauper, financial magnate or an
elected official we shall be in a sad state The
tendency to magnify and misrepresent such in
stances as this in Mr.. Harriman's testimony is,
so far as it is honest, merely sign of hysteria.
The mere mention OF prominent mans name
before the Armstrong committee, even IN the
most complimentary fashion, seems enough, IN
the present temper of the public. to arouse sls-
picion. Such a disposition is neither creditable
nor helpful Enough real abuses have been
revealed and enough serious evils are to be
corrected to call for the earnest efforts of ali
thoughtful citizens. Nothing will be gained
for the community by the attempts of scandal
mongers to turn the investigation into a daily
show of horrors for the delectation of lovers OF
sensation.

SWISS ELECTRIC ROADS.

Upon those railways in Switzerland which
are under government contol-and most OF
them are-electricity will replace steam. The
decision was reached by the Federal Council
several months ago, and important preliminary
steps have been taken TO promote the change
A commission has been busy for some time
studying the systems of traction in vogue else
where In Northern Italy for instance there
is one road sixty-six miles in length. on which
tbe CAM method of utilizing an alternating
current has been in service for three or four
wears. 1t extends along the eastern side of
Lake Como. and then turns off TO the east
ward, terminating at Sondrio. near the Swiss
frontier This road is an old one. and was
originally operated by steam. Another road
which has been scrutinized carefully is entirely
new In fact. it is not entirely finished. Only
forty-six miles are in service It begins at
Milan and reaches in a generally northwesterly
direction Eventually it will touch Lake Mag
giore The second road is probably the more
instructive of the two, because it's steep grades
and sharp curves are typical of much of the
fut,,re construction in the Swiss Alps.
Another line OF Investigation has just been
ordered by the Federal Council A special sur
yey of the available hydraulic power of the
country is about 10 be made. This indicates
that waterfalls, not steam. win be employed
to generate the current needed for thesopera-
ton OF the railways Lie HESt COSL Oh tue leC-
essary engineering works may prove consider
able but in the end the cost of power will
prove lower than If steam were used. You
cannot have steam without fuel and Switzer
land not only has no coal mines of her own, but
is obliged TO pay handsomely for the transpor-
tation Of coal from other European countries
On the other hand, she is blessed with count
less mountain streams, and nowhere in the
world have better means been devised for util-
lzing them. Swiss turbines long enjoyed q
peculiar pre-eminence. Much of the hydraulic
power afforded by the Alps has been turned
to account in one way another, but sys
tematic search will doubtless show that
good deal still remains unapplied.
Switzerland has been INSPIRED to adopt cleo
trfc traction, no doubt. by the fact that her
area is small and that the reserve of power at
her disposal IS still large. She has also been
stimulated By the example SET In Northern
Italy and By the cxpediency Of assimiIating

PHILLPp1NE R4ILRoAps.

Secretary rraft,s well conceived plans for a
system of railroads in the Philippines appear
To he on the way to fulflment They involve
the construction of something more than LOO
miles of railroad in the chief islands OF the
archipelago. and the various lines are so ar
ranged as to open up the islands to commerce
and travel in the most effective way. In
accordance with previous announcements. bids
were opened last week simultaneously in
Washington and Manila for the construction
Of about two-thirds of the proposed lines. 1t
is presumable that the bids will be found salts
factory and that work on the enterprise Will
be started in the near future and it may rea-
sonably be hoped that, such start having been
made builders will soon be found for the re-
manning lines, for which no proposals have yet
been submitted.
The results of such railroad building in the
islands cannot but be beneficial to all con-
cerned. 1t will open up the islands TO trade
and travel, increase their commerce and also
their revenues and promote the general pros
perity OF the people. 1t will also serve to bring
the various tribes and peoples OF the lslands
into closer relations, to develop a community
of interest among them and to unity them
into something like a single nation. 1t Will
greatly facilitate the exploitation OF the mln-
eral and other resources Of the islands and the
extension of profitable agriculture. Naturally,
and confidence between the Filipinos and the
American government and extend the legltl-
mate and beneficent influence Of this country
throughout the islands, where now 1T IS large
ly confined to the ports and coast regions.
There is reason to believe, too, that it will
or 1t would If it were then necessary-glve ef-
fective force to the demand for freer trade re-
.lations between the islands and America. With
the opening up of new markets for American
goods and the increase Of products for ship
ment to America, there would arise in both
countries an Irresistible demand for the re-
moval of all tariff distractions. The latter
consummation WILL however, there is reason to
expect, be effected long before the first of
these railroads is built, but the fact that the
roads are to be built should expedite and as
sure 1t. What effect will be produced upon the
political status and sentiment of the islands
whether the ambition for independence. Will be
stimulated or discouraged-remains to be seen,
but it seems not improbable that the sentiment
of attachment to America will be increased and
confirmed, as certainly the task of administer
ing the general government OF the islands by
this country will be much facilitated.

BEyDRIK OR BENRYr

Why should an Englishman who received by
baptism the name Henry be dubbed Hendrix?
We can think of no good reason. Yet for more
than half a century Americans have been writ
ing and saving Hendrix Hudson. This habit
without legitimate foundation has been en-
phaszed afresh recently in Hendrix Hudson
Memorial Bridge and 1.-The Hendrix Hudson
Tercentenary Committee" The only excuse
| that can be offered for using the Dutch equiv
alent is that Henry Hudson sailed under Dutch
auspices on one of his four voyages of discov-
ery The NetherlanderS themselves knew him
only as Henry" Hudson.
In 1859 Henry G. Murphy, while at The Hague
examining the old Dutch records for data re-
ferring to Hudson, found in the royal archives
a Dutch copy Of Hudson's contract with the
directors Of the East India Company. The
document was appended to a manuscript his
tory of the company, prepared at its request
by P van Dam, the counsel Of the company
from 1862 until his death, in 1706. This copy
opens thus: "On the eighth day of January in
''the year Of our Lord one thousand six hundred
sand nine the Directors of the East India Com
"nany- of the Chamber of Amsterdam, of the ten
wears reckoning, on the one part, and Mr.. Henry
Hudson, EngiishmAn. OF the other part
Two of the signers were Netherlanders; the
third. Henry Hudson. In both cases the
name was spelled in plain English, Henry"
Hudson knew SO little of the Dutch language
that his conferences with the Hollanders were
conducted through the medium of an inter
prefer.
No better time for correcting this absurd
usage could be found than on the eve of the
celebration of the anniversary Of Hudson's voy-
age to this part of North America Let the
bridge to be named>after the English explorer
be the Henry Hudson" or the Hudson but
not the Hendrix Hudson Memorial Bridge
The committee has already dropped the Hen
dirk" from its title and styled itself simply
