The Only Way To Be Perfectly hide
pendent is To Accept ITO FavOrs.

Greensboro Telegram.
In communication to the Raleigh
News and Observer Mr.. G. III. Poe
brings out d telling point in the discus
sior about newspapers and free passes.
'If." he asks, editors are allowed TO
accept favors from railroads what
right will they have to protest If
judges and legislators and governors
do the same thing?" True it is ar
gued by some that the newspapers do
not consider taking pass in exchange
for advertising as accepting favor,
but a simple way to settle this IS 10
ask the newspapers in question which
they had rather have, a free pass or
mile in exchange for such space as
the railroad may use at the usual adj
vertising rates? The free pass is of
course vastly the better proposition.
To just the extent that a pass is worth
more than the advertising space used
does q railroad grant a favor in is
suing it. And once the newspaper ac-
cepts favor it is in an embarrass-
ing position. 1t may be ever so in
dependent of the corporation extend
ing the favor, but the general public
will not give it credit for being indie
pendent and it will be handicapped as
long as it continues to be q beneficiary.
We have had a limited experience with
powerful corporations seeking to get
a leverage by which to stop the pa
per's mouth in certain instances and
to cause it to speak in certain other
instances and this experience has in
delibly impressed the one lesson
namely, that the only way to be per-
fectly independent is to accept no ia

THE PASSING OF IRVING.

(Rev. Andreas Bard, in Union.)
The curtain has dropped on the
final act, the last mask has been laid
aside and Sir Henry Irving sees no
longer through glass darkly but face
to face. 1t was significant that the
great actor had just finished the part
ing words of Thomas A. Beckett:
Into Thy hands, oh, God; through
night to night; into Thy hands, =
when the shadow Of eternity lowered
upon his noble heart and summoned
him to the choir invisible.
The stage has perhaps never pro-
duced an exponent OF drama superior
to the deceased. Irving did not raise
the rafters of heaven with theatrical
rant, he did not saw the air or split
the ears of the grounding with catch
ing exaggerations. He did not possess
the emotional intensity of Booth or
the grace of Mansfield or the mag
netism of Garrick. The writer once
had the privilege to witness his rem
dering of Charles l. in Philadelphia
and only by referring to the above
criticism he could account for the
comparatively small audience that
greeted the classical actor. The mul-
titude preferred Hacket who was play
ing on the same evening "Don Cesar's
Return" In Charles /. Irving's Pc
culiar ability stands out clear and
distinct. To the student of history
who recognizes in the English mon
arch one of the most unfathomable
personalities the world has ever known
Irving illustrated by splendid and dig
nified acting the blending in this char
acter of the saint and the weakling,
the mighty and the mean. Every
trace of making a hit" with the
crowd was eliminated, the tendency
being to educate rather than to please.
An atmosphere of high idealism per-
vaded stage and auditorium during
the entire performance and the long
dreamed-of cooperation Of stage and
pulpit seemed to have come to pass.
Some more actors like Irving would
greatly aid in the elevation of the
atrical standards and Ellen Terry's
suggestion to erect for the deceased q
temple where the histrionic art might
be consecrated to its high calling
would materalize his grand ideals.

ATHENA, OCTOBER "a, 1901
The war in the Far East has left

The war in the Far East has left
Japan with debt of $1,250, 900. 900.
The interest on this sum will approach
5000, 900 annually, an outlay that
represents per capita tax throughout
the empire of $6 year as against 30
before the war The per capita share
of the national debt before the war
was So; it is now $25. The govern
ment is facing these facts boldly, and
urges the necessity upon the business
men of redoubling their energies,
looking to increased developments in
public works of all kinds, that the ma
tion may secure victories in peace as
we'll as in war, says the Review.
1t will be seen that Japan sorely need
cd the indemnity, or large part of
it, that her peace envoys demanded,
but it is equally apparent that she was
in no condition, financially speaking,
to continue the war in support of the
demand. The wisdom of the "elder
statesmen" in conceding this point
and others necessary to conclusion
of peace is already apparent. Japan
did well to make peace on as favor
allie TERMS as she did while yet her
credit was good and her people were
clamorous for war instead of peace.

CHAIN GANG EMPLOYMENT
(SpOkesman- Review. J

The decision in the Georgia chain
gang case" by the United States su-
preme court will be read with consid-
erable interest by those towns and
counties in eastern Washington where
it has been customary to put tramps
and minor offenders to work upon the
streets and roadways. Quite an agi-
tation was created recently at one
point owing to the action Of the county
commissioners in disseminating the
practice.
The supreme court upholds the
Georgia state law authorizing the re-
corder of city to sentence violators of
city ordinances to labor on the public
works. Harry Jamison. who was SEN
fenced to such work, took his case to
the United States district court and
the judge released him on the ground
that the punishment was infamous
and contrary to the constitution of the
United States. The case was then
taken to the supreme court, which
reversed the Georgia court.
The circumstances of this partic-
ular case may have seemed sufficient to
Judge Speer to justify his denun-
citation of the punishment, but the
Spokesman Review cannot see that ii
is infamous to make some Glasses
of offenders labor ON public works.
The average tramp or hobo, for in
stance, not being ashamed TO beg in
public, and steal when he can not get
food by begging, has no right to con.
slider himself subject to infamous
treatment when he is made to work in
public. To work is not any more hu-
milating than to beg.
Reasonable objection can, of course,
be taken to the chain gang system il
carried to an extent where it is ap-
piled to persons of ordinary good char
acter who have been convicted of the
violation of local ordinance, but the
judge would have avery perverted idea
of the intent of the law who would
sentence such a one to public labor.
BY its decision the United States su-
preme court reversed the decision Of
Judge Speer of the district court for
the southern district of Georgia, and
sustained the sentence imposed by the
recorders court.

Upon this theory 1t would seem that
the commerce originating on our coast
canal would be comparatively small,
and passing through the isthmian
for transcontinental railroads would
bring the exports to Pacific coast
ports and would have to do SO in
competition with the canal. But the
canal would be long in building and
by the time the prestige of Pacific
coast ports will be fully established
and acknowledged. Even the winds
and the waves work for them.

above zero. 1t is thought that much
damage has been done to fruit in the

fully one half the fruit is still ON the

as there is but little fruit left on the
trees, and no reports have yet been re-
ceived as to damage to potatoes or
other vegetables.
