CROSSING THE STATE BY RAIL.
ROAD.

The cross state railroad idea will moi
down. The Randolph Herald and News
j. the latest paper to present a route
which it claims ID the most practicable
over the Green Mountains. This route
from Rutland passes through Mendon
and Sherburne, to Pittsfield, thence To
stockbridge, connecting at that place
with the White River railroad running
to Bethel. Following the Bethel Gran
Ife railway which IS now being con-
structed TO the summit Of the spur
range dividing the valley in West and
East Bethel. Then by easy grade to
East Randolph and East Brookfeld
through Williamstown Gulf to Williams
town, And The Herald suggests that
connection might be made with the Cen
trail Vermont at Williamstown and run
to Barre and Montpelier. The eontem.
porary points out that the distance is
or soon will be, one-third covered by
railroad. The entire distance is about
seventy miles.
To this plan the Montpelier Argus
promptly objects, giving as the reason
that connection would have to be made
with the Central Vermont at Williams
town and questioning whether it would
afford better freight rates, although adj.
hitting that the route would facilitate
Tie handling of Barre and Bethel gran.

Visiting the Philippines.

Secretary Tafts party to the Philippines
should be a large one. The larger the bet
ter. Let many of our public men as
possible visit the islands and see for them
selves what we have undertaken there and
what accomplished and what remains to be
done to discharge our full duty to our wards
and to ourselves. Scuttle is no longer in
the public mind. We are going to stay
in the archipelago for a long time at
least. and while we do stay we must acquit
ourselves we'll of difficult task. The close
of the Russo-Japanese war-certainly not
far distant-will bring the whole east under
consideration in a new light, and our adj
vantages and responsibilities in the Philip
pines will then appear palmer than they
have hitherto. In the next Congress the
archipelago is destined to cut figure, and
Speaker Cannon and the representatives
and senators who accompany him on this
trip will be the better prepared to handle
all questions pertaining to it.

From Shovel to Hoe,

Just now the householder looks at his
hands, calloused from the constant use of
the coal shovel during the winter, and won
ders If life is worth living. over in the cor
ner of the cellar he sees the rake and the
lawn mower tucked away for future oper-
atoms and he knows that within a few
weeks he will be called upon as good citi-
zen to do his share in the making of the
gardens which give Washington its chief
charm in spring and summer. Is there no
rest for the weary? Must he jump straight
from the shovel to the hoe?
The ground hog declared, by his abrupt re-
turn TO earth, that the winter would last six
weeks longer. That will bring the advent of
spring week from tomorrow. The calen-
dar asserts that spring begins March 81. or
two weeks from yesterday. There really
cannot be much more stocking for the man
in the cellar, whether the ground hog or the,
calendar is right. And unless be is a very
early bird with his gardening he ought to-
have at least q month Of relaxation, when

Russia's Failing Credit.

An interesting bit of news Is reported
from Paris which shows that Russias trou-
bles are not all military or industrial or
political. The financial problem is appar-
emily assuming proportions which must be
reckoned with in estimating the length OF
the war in the far east and the ability of
the government at ST. Petersburg to stand
resolutely in the way of peasant reforms
For the war Is enormously costly and If
the strikes are not quickly settled and the
peasantry put upon the plane of prosperity
there will soon come a dangerous shortage
of the imperial revenues.
This Paris dispatch indicates that the
bankers of that city, from whom have come
most of the loans which have been fioated
since the war began, are inclined to call
halt upon Russia's Unsuitable demands for
more money. The latest reQuisftion from
the imperial treasury was for an advance
Of some SO0,OOO,oOO francs, or about $780,
100000 1t is stated that the president OF
one Of the large financial institutions of the
French capital distinctly objected to addi-
tional loans exceeding 500 600 900 francs. or
S1OOOOO'OOO, and it is positively announced
that there are many doubts as to whether
even this sum can be raised, and that
the Russian minister of finance has been
last loan that can be fioated in Paris for
some years The French investors are now
realizing that there is grave danger that
their money has been placed very inse-
curely.
If the money supplies fall short there
must come an early end of the war in Man
churia. Russia cannot hope to raise
more than a very few millions from
her own people. The number of possible
purchasers of bonds in that country is said
now to be exceedingly small. The peasantry
and the business interests are taxed al
ready to the breaking point. 1t is growing
difficult, according to recent reports, to
meet the ordinary bills of the domestic ad-
ministration, and the late riots and strike
disorders have assuredly not been inexpen-
sive TO the government. Therefore this
Paris Dispatch indicating that Russia has
reached the limit of her credit the most
friendly bourse of Europe, may indicate
the beginning of the end even more plainly
than the reports of repeated disasters in
the field.

lition of the physical tests citing q three
year agreement which had been signed by
the mems representatives short time ago.
which is now violated and ignored. 1t Is
suggestive commentary on the case that the
physical tests are supposed to safeguard
the public. and. in resisting the demand
for their abolition. the company Is forced
to hire men without subjecting them TO any
such tests, and on the first day OF the strike
a costly collision occurs.
The attitude of the strikers toward the
public is well Illustrated by the following
statement by the leader of the motormen.
upon learning that the company proposes to
import large numbers OF strike breakers:
More men means more trains. and more
trains run by green men mean more deaths,
and more deaths mean help to our cause.
1t may be questioned whether either side
cares a rap for the public. The men are
intent solely upon securing better wages
and hours. at whatever cost. and the COM
pany Is determined to resist that demand
though the public suffers untold inconven-
fence and loss. and even injury and death.
Yet the weight of popular sympathy Is
likely to be with the corporation for insist
ing upon the observance Of formal agree
ment and the retention OF the physical
tests. which. in normal times. are absolutely
necessary to keep the chances OF disaster
at minimum. There will at least be no
patience with the efforts Of the strikers TO
prevent the operation of the lines otherwise
than through pacific persuasion of the men
who have taken their places. The fa1r-
minded American always resents the claim
of the striker that his abandoned post shall
not be occupied by another man. even LOT
the sake of supplying the public necessities

Railroads and the Tariff.

The announcement that the Senate COM
mittee on interstate commerce Is to be
called together at once to begin the inyesti-
cation of the railroad problem will every
where be well received. 1t is equally Of in
terest, too. that the greater part OF the
work will be done here in Washington.
Junkets. IT IS recognized, will be unneces-
sary. Railroad officials and those COM
planning of railroad exactions can easily
Journey to this point. and statistics bearing
upon the general proposition of govern
mental regulation are obtainable here in
greater volume than elsewhere. This is
re-eminently the place. therefore, for con-
Quoting the inquiry, and there seems no
reason to doubt that it will be conducted
with a view to the preparation of a bill
covering the evil to be corrected.
There is still the suggestion advanced
that this movement is but the forerunner
of movement for government ownership
of railroads; that the railroads themselves.
rather than be harried by strict govern
ment control. will prefer to pass into the
governments complete ownership. and will
make any legislation short of that not
only difficult. but finally impossible of APP
plication.
This is questionable for several reasons.
ership are two very different propositions.
The former has long been advocated by
men of conspicuous conservatism in affairs.
while the latter has been bracketed with
schemes which the people have repeatedly
repudiated at the polls. AS for the rail-
roads themselves, they have. and under
rigid government regulation will continue
to have, by far too good a thing to want
to part with 1t willingly at any figure. The
future of railroads is in every way prom
Using.
Now IL the Senate finance committee will
proceed promptly with the investigation
ordered of the tariff question we shall all
have something further to be thankful for.
A little delay may result from the absence
of Chairman Aldrich in Europe. But his
stay will not be long, and upon his return
he should set the wheels of the Senates
order in motion. A tariff bill, 1t Is true,
must originate In the House, but all that
the Senate committee may do In the way
of collecting statistics and developing opin-
ion will be at the service of the House. and
should be of great aid to it in the handling;
of the proposition.

Two Notable Veterans.

The career of Judge Jackson of West VIZ
ginia and that of the late Judge Reagan OF
Texas are both quotable against DR.. Osier
theory.
Judge Jackson at the age of eighty mas
lust resigned from the bench after serV-
ice Of over forty years. He was forty tneh.
when he assembled the bench. and his record
there Is one of much ability and usefulness
Since reaching his sixtieth year ne mas
ma ssed upon some Of the most important OF
the many questions presented to him; ana
his decisions have not lacked for force. In
fact, as is stated. he is still man Of vigor,
and was rather slow to concede That ne
ought to take a rest. He felt able TO ex-
tend his official service. and in retirement
he may have ten years or more OF we'll
earned leisure.
Judge Reagan was in his eighty-seVentn
year. and while he was somewhat proml-
nent as young man his important puoiic
services were rendered after he had passed
his fortieth year. He was forty-tour "heh

His national fame, indeed, rests upon the
achievements Of those years when, accord
ing to the Oslerian theory, he should have
been tucked away in eternal slumber.
Pioneer stock is hardy. West Virginia IN
Judge Jackson's youth was wild ana
rough country, and the men who conquered
it cleared its forests and hills its roads
and Cities and made what subsequently
became sovereign state, were in every
way fit for their work. Sixty years was no
measure of their usefulness Take Henry
g. Davis as another sample of them And
Texas when Judge Reagan arrived there
called for even greater eXertions. Savages
and desperados roamed about at pleasure
and the civilized settlers had not only I'M
