ROCK ISLAND WORK.
Heavy Expenditures Being Made For
Improvement of System.

The Rock Island system is plan
ming extensive betterments and re-
newals for the present year, and
several millions of dollars will be
expended with the view of placing
the main lines of the system in per-
feet feet i,tfsse oh ssess;;scsall steal eeoG ayt ion
Among the things already decided
upon is the laying of 400 miles of
eighty-fiye pound steel on the main
line in Illinois, Missouri and Kansas
This will cost the company over ST.
o0o 900, but will bring the main line
up to the standard with respect to
weight of rails For reballasting OF
the same lines the sum of 5000 600
is to be expended. The work will be
extended as far south at Beeklin,
Kan, and will include track in the
state of Missouri. Iowa, Nebraska,
Colorado, Kansas and Oklahoma.
All over the system there is TO be
an extensive renewal of bridges. re-
placing the old wooden and light
steel structures with heavy iron
bridges. This work alone will cost
the company nearly 8 900 ,600. The
divisions and large terminals every
where are TO be enlarged and improv-
ed and fully $500. .00o is to be used
In this work during the present year.
While no statement of what the
Rock Island is to do In Texas has
yet been given out, ii Is believed, too,
that the company intends to make
great improvements in the state, es-
pecialiy at Galveston. However, no
plans have yet been consum mated,
so far as the public is aware.

the sooner they will get it.-Stanly
Enterprise.
The above item from the Stanly En-
terprise is the first sensible article we
nave seen in a Democratic paper on
the subject of self-government of the
Filipinos.
During the last campaign the Dem
ocrats made an issue in favor of CIV
ing the Filipinos self-government
right away before they had been prop
erly educated or taught the art of
government But at the same time
they have passed laws in Democratic
States DISTINGUISHING voters who could
not read and write, saying they were
not competent of self-government.
which shows their inconsistency.
The Democratic politicians are al
ways opposed to any policy proposed
by the Republicans. But that party
mas long since ceased to be a progress
Slve party and is now only a stumbling
block in the path of progress.

evidently extracted every known new

were reported yesterday, for the mum
Der fell away to-day by nearly one half
and by six o'clock the United States
Marine Hospital Service reported but
80 new cases and deaths. There were
five deaths the day before. The ply
sician referred to was first on the list
to-day, with 2 cases.
The most discOncerting development
in the country parishes came to-day
from Talluah, where one batch of
twenty new cases was reported, one
death being added. The fever at Tai
lulah, which is some $50 miles north
of New Orleans, Is confined largely to
Italians, and the large number en-
braced in this single report indicates
the usual Italian method of control.
1t was at Tallulah seven years ago that
number Of Italians were lynched for
the murder Of merchant, the affair
reaching the proportions of an inter
national incident. The Italian govern
ment demanded indemnity of the

Equality ca Before the Law.

Mr.. Editor Since writing on the
News and Observers idea Of equality
before the law last week I have seen
an account of the trial of Samuels and
Hasty for attacking Editor Deal about
certain statements published in his
paper about them. Mr.. Samuels de-
manded the author. Mr.. Deal refused
to give it, words passed and then
blows, the evidence showing that Sam
uels attacked Deal. Samuels is a Re-
publican and Deal a Democrat, and the
editor of a Democratic paper. The
judge sentenced Samuels to three
months and Hasty to six months in
Jail. AS to the justice of these SEN
fences L will make no question except
by comparison. Some ten years ago
an article appeared in The Union Re
publican that Sheriff Macarthur con-
sidered a reflection on him. He de-
manded of Capt. Goshen, the editor of
the paper, the name of the author.
Capt. Goshen told him he would see the
author and give him the name. Capt.
Goshen saw the author who told him
at once to give Mr.. Macarthur his
name, but he did not call again for 1t.
Other articles along the same line wereI
published. On account of one of these
Mr.. Macarthur waited for Capt Goshen
near The Republican office, and when
the Captain came along on his way to
his Office the morning after the often
sive article appeared, Macarthur at
tackled him. Mr.. Macarthur was the
Democratic sheriff of the county att
the time he attacked Capt Goshen and
he did it without ever giving him time
to defend himself or a chance to tell I
who wrote the article.
This was a case just like Samuels
attacking Deal, except in Capt Cos
lens case it was a Democrat attacking
a Republican editor. This case was
tried, and the evidence was such that
the justice of the peace had to find
guilty, but in doing SO he
said that he was obliged to find him
guilty. and would fine him five dol
lars, but if it was in his power in
stead of fining him he would give him
fifty dollars for attacking this editor.
Now let the people take the case and
compare the two, and then pass their
Judgment as to equality before the law.
The Republicans are put in Jail
three nd six months for assaulting a
Democratic editor, and the Democratic
sheriff Is fined five dollars for attack
ng a Republican editor, but is virtu-
lilly thanked by the court for doing so.
Take the case gentlemen Justice.
