Brewers ana Legislation
IN The Kansas City Star.

From The Kaus1s City Star.
If the brewers are planning to
attempt the repeal OF the local op-
iion and Sunday closing laws at
the next session Of the Missouri
Legislature, as asserted by DIR.
Lindluy, superintendent of tho
Anti-Saloon league, they are fore
doomed to disappointment. No
doubt they would be delighted to
see both laws wiped FROM the stat
ute books. Undoubtedly they
would be glad 10 ba in position
to push legislation favorable to
their interests.
But it is impossible to suppose
a change in public sentiment that
would permit the outcome which
they desire. The country districts
long ago went on record us pos
SCISSORS of pretty definite moral
yearnings" regarding local option
and Sunday closing Tueir opin-
ions have certainly not weakened
in the last year. Meanwhile the
vigorous attitude of'Gov. Folk has
crystalized the feeling in the cities.
After its half years experience
with an orderly Sunday, Kansas
City would not willingly go back
to the old regime. Even st. Louis
has grown noticably quieter under
the lid" and it may be assumed
that large element thore has APP

With the sentiment throughout
the state aroused as it is today,
there can be no question Of the
futility of a movement to secure a
repeal of the existing liquor legis-
lAtion. The people of Missouri
are standing pat on this question.
Au attempt to go counter to this
sentiment might readily provoke
the enactment OF q more drastic
law.

Bio Dividends Poor Service.

Seventeen shares of the stock of
the old East Middlesex street railway
company are offered for sale by
Boston banking house at the enor-
nous figure of $3.50 a share. This
old road, the first that was built from
Maiden to Melrose and from Maiden
to Maplewood, was leased II years
ago to the Lynn and Boston on an an
nual rental of 10 per cent. Even
since this big rental was pledged the
dividends have never failed. Soon
afterward the Lynn and Boston in
turn was leased and more dividends
guaranteed, and they have never been
stopped Thousands Of dollars in
dividends are being paid, while the
lines of Cliftondale and Revere
Beach remain slngle-track lines, on
which good service cannot be poss1b-
Iy given. In the meantime the stock
holders of the Massachusetts electric
companies which now include these
lines are crying out for dividends on

Congressional Overtime Work.

A considerable amount o congress
sional work is to be done this year
after congress has adjourned. The
senate finance committee has been
authorized to sit during the summer
recess, which is believed to mean that
it will take testimony on the tariff
question. The senate also passed Mr.
Kean's resolution empowering the
committee on interstate commerce to
investigate railroad rates and their
regulation. This committee is plan
ming to meet on April 10 and hold
hearings for a month or six weeks
Last summer, in spite of the cam
paign, time was found for the joint
merchant marine commission to tray
Ell to all of the chief shipping centers,
and the senate committee on privi-
leges and elections to visit Salt Lake
City and make special inquiries as to
the eligibility of Senator Smoot. In
November most of the members of
the house committee on Interstate
and foreign commerce, with a few
senators for company, visited the
isthmus of Panama to study the canal
work. 1t is rather curious that none
of this overtime work brought any
results in the session just closed.
The marine commissions recommen-
dations went over to next year, the
Mormon senator finished the first
third of his term on Saturday, still I'M
molested, and the two houses failed
to come to agreement on the canal
zone bin. 1t is rather discouraging
of congressional junkets when they
are allowed to come to so little.-New

Water Power Wasted.

1t is believed that it will not be
very long before adequate steps are
taken to harness some of the practi-
cally animated tide water power of
the Bay of Fundy and Of the fats and
lowlands that mark the estuaries of
the streams that flow into the bay. On
the Minas basin head Of from thirty
five to forty-fve feet would be avail
able. This, sustained by the limit

ing the basins very twelve hours.
woull afford an aggregate power far
beyond the utmost capacity of Niagara.
This is only one instance of the
power Of the Bay of Fundy that now
goes to waste. At Moocton the tide
rises to height of thirty feet, begin
ming with the famous rushing bore"
six feet in height. This power could
be utilized and the harbor improved
without destroying the destinations of
the "bore."

EQUALITY'S ONE HANDICAP.
The Disposition to Regard Ones
Drawbacks as Fatal.

Saturday Evening Post-No doubt
the statement that "all men are born
equaP' requires good deal of expla-
nation before it becomes practically
true; for nature does hopelessly hand
leap many of us before she starts us
In the race. Still isn't there far more
truth in that "glittering ge1 erality''
than many persons admit nowadays?
The woman born beautiful doesn't
bother to educate her intelligence is
spoiled by f1attery, is unable to hold
the men she attracqts; the woman
born homely is driven to develop her
character and her mind. and so more
than overcomes her handicap as
against her pretty sister. The man
born clever loses because lie wins too
easily and has no incentive to that
sustained effort which alone achieves
success; the man born "slow" de-
velops patience, assiiuity, balance
and, best of all, tenacity.
1t comes near to being universal
rule that strong points and weak ones
just about offset each other in any hui
man being at the start, and that the
development is a matter for the man
himself to determine. And there is
no fatal handicap except the disposi-
ton to regard ones handicap as fatal.
