celebration 100 years ago was the
prominence given to the Louisiana
Purchase. This was but natural, as
the sale had but lately been oonsum-
mated, and the opposition among those
opposed to Jefferson and his policy
was very great.
The supporters of Jefferson naturally
did not allow the opportunity to pass
without giving him unstinted praise.
1t is amusing, in view of the growth
of our country and the manifold bene-
fits that have accrued from the Louis
lana Purchase, to read the harsh crit-
cisms directed against Jefferson and
the purchase Of the territory by those
who celebrated the Fourth a century
ago. "In what will all this ostentaton
end?" was the query attached to the
toast on the Louisiana Purchase at q
dinner in Trenton.

No New Roads For Two Years

~ @NNN NOtt VI WV VAL
Under a new Interpretation of the
New Jersey Stone Road law State
Road Commissioner Elijah C. Hutchin
son, of Trenton, is determined that no
more road contracts shall be sanctioned
until 1907, unless the next Legislature
makes an extra appropriation for such
work. In other words, all of the road
money now on hand is required to pay
for work already contracted for, and
commissioner Hutchinson will not put
the State in debt for road building I'm.
til more money is available. The ap.
preparations of last winter are not due
until November l next, and the appro-
priations of the next Legislature will
not be due until November /, 1906. At
the latter date it will be too late in the
fall to do any road work, and so the
operations will have to go we until
the following spring. The only relief
i'll sight is the possibility that the Leg.
1slature will make an extra apprOpria.
ton, to become available as soon as the
measure is enacted. This is hardly
likely to BE- Gone. Automobile owners
are much >Xcited over this matter. For
the last ten years it has been the prac-
tice of the road department to sanction
road contracts i'll the different counties
before the State was in position to pay
its one-third of the expense, sometimes
even before the Legislature had appro.
priated the money.

DIED FROM uF1TuIrIe nau1ro.

That Rutherford B. Curry, of River
ton, actually died of h~ydrophobia and
not from fright i'll dwelling upon the
possibilities of the dread disease, as
had been supposed, has been discovered
by DR.. A. N. Jacob, who was his physi-
clan. Professor Alfred Gordon, neuro-
pathologist in Jefferson Hospital, Phil
adelphia, who as an expert examined
the spinal ganglia of the dead man,
which had been submitted to him, has
reported that he found indisputable
evidence of the genuine rabies, and he
has no doubt that Curry's death was
caused by the disease. Curry had been
bitten by a dog a long while ago. but
the wound had healed, and nothing
was thought of it until he caught a
heavy cold and developed symptoms
which he feared were those of hydro
phobia. He expressed his fear to the
first physician he consulted, but was
told that it was. groundless.

There is more catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was SUD- posed to be incurable. For great many years doctors pronounced it local disease and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treat ment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease and there fore requires constitutional treat ment. Halls Catarrh Cure, man. ufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co. Toledo, Ohio, is the only consti- tutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
DEPLoREs LOWERED STANDARD.
American Must Live on Lower Plane to Com
pete with Alien, Says Writer.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Even a we'll seasoned New-Yorker cannot
but be startled when studying the data presented
by Commissioner Darlington as to our immigration
problem NO wonder he demands more stringent
laws to the restriction OF this great innux OF
foreigners, 90 per cent of whom begin life here as
pushcart pedlers Never in the history OF ths
world has there been such q gathering OF hetero-
genous humanity in any place as New-fork Is
obliged to provide for. We are suffering from
congestion OF population severely that our wage
earners in their hard fight to pay rents nave no
time TO consider their rights related to their
neighbors. and they get hopeless. We cannot
give our American wage Garner in this. the nSht
his life. a fair chance unless stop this vast
incoming tide which increases disease, crime
and pauperism and so disturbs Industrial condi-
tons to injure the native born and we'll to do
foreign born workers in our city. Tho standard of
living ought not be lowered. and if the newcomer
fills place that might have been occupied by
one holding to higher standard OF living the
city IS the for his coming. This present tide
OF immigrants means practically the substitution
of kind Of man who Is inferior for another
kind Of man who Is superior.
Surely here is a survival OF the unhttsst with a
vengeance. And this increase this line makes
American workers unwilling to raise up chill
dren TO compete IN the labor market with those
they know TO be their interiors. or course, the
Italian Hun and Pole can live on less and breed
faster than the American. In the coal mines
these men accept 50 cents a day for wages. II need
be. and are three hundred years behind the Ameri-
in his standard Of living We. a republic,
on trial. and IL Is our duty TO this genera
ton well to the coming generations to
call halt and stop this degradation OF
citizenship. Former Commissioner Williams says:

cent immigration is constantly deteriorating,

of laws more stringent still, says DR.. Darlington.

oAR SUPPLY DISSEMINATION.

The decision Of the Supreme Court in the case
of the Kiagwood Coal Company against the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad is another blow
at discrimination on the part OF common car
Tiers. It also serves 10 call public attention TO
the methods of some Of our railroad managers
VINO object to government regulation Of their
business. There is more than one way of dis
eliminating, and the gentlemen TO whom God in
His infinite wisdom has committed the trans
portation interests Of the country, as Mr. Baer
would say, sometimes show great fertility Of
resource IN getting around the law, not to Sc
cure business for which some of them say re-
bates are often absolutely necessary in spite Of
The law, but TO I'LL their own pockets at the ex-
peIse Of the public which they hold trust TO
serve.
The Klngwood Coal Company is a concern
operating IN West Virginia on a branch Of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. 1t complained
thar IL could not secure cars from the railroad
10 ship its coal Its complaint could not be dis
posed Of by the simple answer that the railroad
did not have enough cars, for it was alleged
that other coal companies IN which leading
stockholders Of the railroad were interested had
received supply Of cars. Apparently the rail-
road deliberately Disseminated against the
kingwood company and prevented its market
ing its product satisfactorily while taking good
care of the favored companies. Judge Golf, In
INC 1-AIeS1 01o'cs C44'H4b COuil Ie4u That cdTs
must be distributed among the companies with
out discrimination IN proportion 10 their out
put and ordered the railroad to supply 81 per
cent Of the cars it had on hand TO the Kingwood
company that being its share Of the production
Of the district, whereas only IS per cent of the
cars had been sent there previously.
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad appealed
from Judge Goff's decision, contending that the
Elkins law gave the court no power affirmative
y 10 order such distribution of cars 1t could
merely ia general terms command a railroad to
desist from discrimination and admonish it as
TO any discrimination found. The Supreme
Court brushes aside this contention and holds
that the courts are competent to give effective
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1905-05-19

! force to their judgments and secure fair treat
ment to shippers in the matter of cars. This
finding should encourage shippers who, in spite
of the law, have felt themselves unable TO Sc
cure adequate facilities compared with IA
vored rivals.
Probably there is much more of this sort of
discrimination than the public is generally
aware of. 1t is a sort of discrimination which
discredits the professions Of railway men that
they are doing the best they can under the con-
ditions of trade to deal fairly with the people
and obey the spirit Of the law. The necessity
of securing traffic and making a road pay may
serve as an excuse for some determinations.
They are signs at least Of devotion to the road
by its manage But this discrimination is
betrayal Of the road by its managers for their
own personal profit Charged with a duty as
common carriers, they perVert their facilities to
their own enrichment. That is not only a viola
ton of public law. but breach of private trust.

n0nGING A GREAT ISSUE.

In its anxiety to obtain possession OF the
United States Treasury warrant for S1,161,-
74S So. drawn In it's favor but held in chancery
by q Washington claim agent, the State Of
Massachusetts has decided to waive what its
Attorney General designated a day or two ago
as "a great constitutional principle" According
to this eloquent official, the integrity and re-
sponsibility' Of Massachusetts as member of
the federal Union could only be vindicated by
rebuking the temerity Of the Washington lawyer
who for more than a year has blocked the de-
livery Of the check Should the oldest and
proudest commonwealth in New-England. he
asked, be forced to admit that the government
of the United States can deal with sovereign
State and cancel just debt duly adtudicated
"only through the medium Of a claim agent?
Against such an Infamous surrender, he assured
the Joint Com mittee Of Ways and Means Of the
State LEGISLATURE he would continue TO protest
so long as he had voice and strength"
The WAYS and Means Committee Of the legis-
lature seems, however, TO have taken somewhat
less seriously the afrront put on the States dig
uity by the offending claim agent. 1t is more
concerned apparently, about getting the money
due the treasury than about indicating any
abstruse theory of State sovereignty and State
rights. II adopted unanimously on Wednesday
in spite of the Attorney Generals rhetoric
resolution practically yielding all the Washing
ton agents demands and guaranteeing him the
commission he claimed under his contract with
a former State administration. He Is TO sur
render the warrant he has been holding for over
