The general consensus of opinion
seems to be that the presidents latest
order touching civil service removals
has knocked the bottom clear out of
that system. 1t will simply enable Re-
publican chiefs to weed out the Demo-
Gratis without hearing. If any system
ever needed an overhauling which
would put some common sense into it,
surely it Is the civil service system.

A New Mexican Road.

Mazatlan, Mexico. Sept 5-In con nection with the proposed Guaymas- Guadalajara Railroad Governor Canedo of Sinaloa has received the following message from Vice-President Ramon Corral:
 "The contract for the extension of the Sonora Railway into the State of Jalisco has been duly signed and a de- posit of $240000 has been made by the Southern Pacific in trust to guaran- tee the construction of the line from Guaymas to Guadalajara. Work will be started out of Mazatlan north and south at the same time. Four hundred kilometres of track will be built in the first two years and at least ITO kilo- metres in each succeeding year until the line Is completed. This work will be of untold benefit to the Pacific coast region of Mexico and I congratulate you on the bright future In store for Sinaloa."

 ALWAYS THE WAY.

An evidence of the way tariff reduo- tion. reciprocity and the like touches tender places is given in a recent Issue of The Buffalo News. Several reel pFoclty treaties were sent to the Sem ate and not acted on. among them be- tag one with France. Secretary Shaw declares that he is an enthusiast in flaw sr of these treaties. and The News says.
 Mir, Shaw may be right ab3uts part of tpe schedule of goods included m the French compact but an illustration of how that treaty would work Is given in this city. 1t is arranged by the treaty that certain duty. and an in- significant one. shall be laid on import ed coal tar dyes. It was discovered by men interested in that business in this country in time to inform Senators that If the Kasson treaty with France went through, the business of making coal tar dyes Tn this country would be killed and incidentally one of the larg- sst industries in Buffalo would share that fate.
 1t is another application of the story of the gnred OK. Reciprocity Is all right for the other fellow. and import duties are all right-also for the other fellow. A small duty on coal tar dyes would not prevent France from break ing down one of OUT infant industries. therefore that part of the treaty with France will not do at all. And if 1t Is fnund that the operation of the treaty would interfere with some other Amer ienn industry there will be another howl In short. there can be no re- auction of the tariff that will not se- riously affect some protected industry in this country and that Is not to be thought of. Let the people who pay the duties go hang, but let not the sa- cred infant be touched.

It Is capable of proddc ing 2,500,000 to 3,000,000 bales of cot ton. The Tennessee River Valley ex- tending through the State. has the largest acreage producing capacity of any State in the Union-217 bushels having been gathered from a single acre near Tuscumbia. farmer in Wilcox County sold his hay crop of one season for $l10 per acre. All farm crops grown between Canada and Mexico can be profitably raised in some one of the sixty-seven counties of the State. IL Is admirably adapted to stock raising Of all kinds. It has SUI perior advantages. for transportation, all of the great railway systems of the South intersecting and traversing its territory and possessing more miles of navigable rivers than any other State. Statistics prove 1t to be one of the healthiest States in the Union. To the homeseeker. 1t offers more and superior advantages than any other State.

PERSIA AND AMERICA.

The Persian Minister to our govern ment. Mir. Khan Somebody or other, has received a heavy jolt in the re- xiou of his modesty. and all on account of tho American woman's habits and dress The way they dress astonished him some little. their haeit of going out alone without veils gave him harder jar. but when he saw them in their bathing dresses, going into the water with the men, he had several fits. T hold up my hands in horror" uuoth MT. Khan, 'at the thought of the consequences if the American habit of seashore life were introduced into Persia
 We don't blame him. There are some good Americans who at times feel like holding up their hands at some of the bathing resort spectacles, but 1t is the fashion here and We suppose there's really nothing to be shocked at. And we are not surprised that this mo- ble Persian should be shocked over the mere possibility of such an innova- ton Tn his own country. There all women. at least of the higher classes, are kept in rigorous seclnsion from the prying eyes of male humanity. When a woman goes out she must be all hid den except her eyes. If one of them should be seen in the undress uniform so common at our fashionable bathing resorts there would be a cataclysm in Persia, and perhaps few heads would Tha Ah AF ha man are not for the public
 All this care and seclusion is intend ed az a protection of their females against the public. It is the armor of defence for woman and the protector of virtue and modesty But. as The San Antonio Express puts it, the | American girls defenses are the only true safeguard. No harem walls nor | duenna espionage. nor the sterner lock l and key that the Romans practiced, avaGils to protect virtue against an in- herently prurieut mind. Purity must be an attribute of the heart and spirit in order for 1t to regulate conduct. That it is the birthright and the orna- ment of the American girl is attested | by the Tact that cold statistics, as well as the testimony of unprejudiced for eign observers. prove that in no other country on earth is there higher femi- nine purity or a more ideal family life than in America And so our system of untrammeled liberty for young un- married women justines itself in the rssult."
 We might initiate this shocked Per sian and hold up our hands in horror at the thought of what would happen if their customs should be introduced here. If our women could only go on the streets with a guard they wouldn't go at also there now, and if they should so out mufied up to the eyes they would be followed by a mob. We like out customs best
