That MiIeaue Grab.

At 12 o'clock on Monday, December ', 1903. the extra session of the Fifty eighth Congress came to an end, and at the same moment the first regular session of that Congress was begun. The recess was not actual. No mem Der could have walked to the cloak room while it occurred It was but figment of the congressional brain, and yet the House by vote of 90 to 79 voted S19O,OOO for mileage that was simply impossible.
 Thanks to MT. Underwood, who fought the grab from start to finish, yea and nay vote was taken, and that vote disclosed who were willing 10 grab S190OOO from the treasury. That vote, says the New York Sun, shows that there are no party lines in graft.
 In all parts of the country, from all sorts of papers. arises a demand that the grabbers shall be called to account by their constituents. No Alabama member, The Age-Herald is glad to say, supported the grab amendment. "The incident" says the Chicago Fri bune, "is disheartening. It shows how much more the chosen representatives. of the people care for little money than they do for the good opinion of the public. They are ready to dip their hands into the national treasury if they can do so without mourning the risk of being indicted. There IS no quality in congressman which ap- peals more to constituents than ster- ling honesty. They pardon much to the man who has it. Nothing offends or disgusts them more than the man whose chief object in going to Con- gress is to make money"
 The Senate had the decency to strike out the amendment, and it was not heard of again. The Senate did it's duty, and MT. Underwood did his by opposing the grab, and particularly in securing yea and nay vote, which uncovered the wanton attempt to raid the treasury.

Primaries in the Northwest.

Illinois voted last November to adopt the primary system in the mak- ing of party nominations. The vote stood 590,976 for primaries and 7S,4t6 against them. The legislature of that state is now engaged in perfecting primary bill in accordance with the popular mandate.
 But the bill adopted by the lower branch of the legislature provides that when the people do not nominate a man for an office by majority vote, a convention may complete the task. The democrats insist that this is a violation of the instructions of the people at the polls, and they are op- posing the measure. The democrats demand a full direct primary bill that will award to the man receiving the highest vote for an office the nomina- tion of his party. At this writing it is uncertain whether Illinois will finally adopt plurality nominations or will stand py the house bill.
 The south is practically solid in it's support of the primary system, and that system is now conquering the far west and likewise the middle west. The stronghold of the exploded con vention system is in the. east-the northeast, that is to say-in the states that are ruled by bosses and machine politics.
 In the lon. run every state will auopt the primary system, and there are young men Twin. who will witness and participate in a national primary for the nomination of a Presidential ticket. Such a convention will be 8 great popular progression from what the constitution makers of 1787 in- tended. but that handful of men about thirty in number-could not foresee how much the republic would come to trust the plain people in all branches of public business. They did know that the plain people would make the best nominations, and would prove to be in every other respect the safeguard of our liberties.

Salary of the President.

Up to 1873 the salary of the Presi- dent stood at s25,0O0 It was then raised to s5O,00O and the Fifty-eighth Congress, in answer to the known wish of President Roosevelt endeav- ored to increase it to $75,000. The proposition slep so long, however, that the objection of the cratic MT Baker of Brooklyn killed. MT. Roose- volt will receive but $50,0O0 a year during his term of office, although public sentiment runs in favor of an increase. The salary of President cannot be increased during his term.
 There are many salaried persons Tn this commercl age and country who receive more than $50,000 a year, and the demands upon them are by no means so great as they are upon the President of the United States The cost of maintaining the position with dignity has been vastly increased, and not even Jeffersonlan simplicity de- mands that President shall expend more than he receives. AS a rule the Presidents of the republic have been men of moderate means
 The country would have approved an increase in the Presidential salary, and 1t may be wise to pass a bill h the coming Congress giving the Presi- dent fitting salary. No one knows who MT. Roosevelt's successor will be, and less opposition to the bill would be developed than would spring up after the canvass of 1908 begins to take form and proportion, and to re- late to one or two persons in each of the two great parties of the country.

That night he asked a ranchman what he would take for his ranch, and the reply was S45,O0O. The President, a cowboy then, slept on the matter, and the next morning gave the ranchman check for s1O,0Oo. and in few days gave another check for $&,OOO It illustrated how rapidly he makes up his mind and how quickly his actions fol- low his determination

 @ HE death of Mrs. Leland stan 9 ford at Honolulu. apparently apparently tn the ministered to her, brings up recollections of the romantic and tragic history of California with which this remarkable woman was so prominently associated.
 Leland Stanford, her husband, who died in 1893, was one of tho early aettlers who were drawn to California after the dis covery of gold in 1S4S. He was not among the "Argonauts'' who rushed thither in the following year. his arrival having been three years later; but he began his California career as gold miner. At Sacramento there was already settled Collis Porter Huntington, who had been ''Forty-niner," though he had be- come prosperous as a trader rather than a. hunter after gold directly. Two years after the arrival of Leland Stanford, Huntington took as partner in his bus mess Mark Hopkins. Charles Croker, "Forty-niner," was another of the trad CTS of the town, and Leland Stanford be- came still another. Sacramento then was A rough mining town, but bustling with trade with the mining camps, and all four of these men prospered rapidly and greatly. By the time of the civil war they had become the Big Four, joined in pushing forward the project Tor the building of the Central Pacific railroad, then regarded as a crazy scheme.
 If is said that of the four the need of such a railroad first occurred to Leland Stanford when, in 1859, he saw a huge freight wagon drawn by twenty mules null out from Huntingtons store for the Comstock mines at yirginsa City, though the practicability of the route over the Sierra Nevada had been vainly urged on California by Thomas J. Judah, a civil engineer. Mir. Huntington, impressed by the suggestion, at once gave to 1t the nractical impulse O. his vigorous enter nrise and extraordinary genius for exc cution. In July. 1862, the first Pacific railroad act was passed by Congress, largely through his influence. For the construction of the railroad one section. the central was given to the Union Pa cifc Railroad company, and the western division to the Central Pacific Railroad company Al the organization of the Central Pacific, Stanford was elected
 president and Huntington vice-president. and they. together with Crocker and Hop kins. were the heaviest holders of the stock
 It is not necessary to follow the history of that gigantic construction, whose suc- cessfui accomplishment made them

Water Rates in Atlanta.

The Western and Atlantic railroad belongs to Georgia, and it is at pres ent leased to the Louisville and Nash vile railroad. It is believed the Lou isville and Nashville will have an At lanta line of its own when the lease expires, but even if it has no Atlanta line of it's own, the Atlanta people and papers are demanding that the road be operated by the state at the expiration of the lease. They propose that the railroad belonging to the state shall become a part of water route to Atlanta from the sea and the mid dle west. The Tennessee river is to do a part of the water act, and the Western and Atlantic is to do the rest The Western and Atlantic is to be operated as part of the Tennessee river. Steamers will come up the Tennessee to Chattanooga, and con structively they will then proceed by virtue of minimum tariffs to Atlanta. where they will turn about and sail back to Chattanooga, carrying return cargoes.
 In this way Atlanta hopes to get water rates even as low as if it were actually on a navigable river or the

Our National Balance Sheet.

The federal receipts of February ex- ceeded the expenditures of that month by the sum O. $3,146,S38. February was the first surplus month of the calendar year, and the excess of ex- penditures in the nscal year over re. ceipts stood on Marcty at S25. 1885, ,534.
 Secretary Shaw estimated the de- felt of the fiscal year at $1S,000000, and in the remaining four months he hopes to see the deficit reduced to his figures. Imports are heavy, and possibly the deficit of the year may not exceed MT. Shaw's estimate.
 Looking ahead to the next fiscal year. the appropriations for which have been made, Senator Allison, chairman of the appropriations committee of the Senate, thinks there will be a small surplus at the end of it. He puts the next years revenue at $726,- 100000. Mir. Hemenway, chairman of the House appropriations committee. substantially indorses Senator Ali sons estimate. He puts the excess of receipts over expenditures in the fiscal year beginning July 1 at $2S,- 000,000. It is plain, therefore, that the country has not been ruined by the passage of rivers and harbors bill.
