4 Notable Instance.

What an honest and honorable gen.
,leman Judge JoHN T. ABBOTT isl He
came from Santo Domingo to New York
and arrived here in perfect ignorance OF
what had been going on in the select
circles OF Washington diplomacy during
the time when he was afloat upon the
mighty deep He knew nothing of the
abandonment of the original programme.
as embodied in the MISUNDERSTANDING
agreement, or Of the sudden change OF
theory az to the basis of American oper-
atoms in Santo Domingo. Consequently
Judge ABBOTT stated to reporter of The
sun the situation precisely as he under
stood II at the time Of his departure and
ga it was generally understood by the be-
niahted inhabitants of Santo Domingo.
When Judge ABBOTT reached Washing
ton, after having unbosomed himself of
what he believed TO be the strict truth,
he seems 10 have been more or less
sharply notified that his "reminiscences
of Santo Domingo were inconvenient
and untimely in view of statements and
theories and revisions of policy as
Washington during the period Of his sea
voyage.
Under the circumstances ninety-nine
diplomats or financial agents out Of
hundred, when called upon 10 square
their testimony with the latest theory of
defence adopted at headquarters would
have repudiated the interview or have
endeavored to give the impression that
his utterances had been misrepresentod.
The expedient is as ancient as diplo-
macy itself. but Judge ABBOTT is not
the man to resort to it. He simply ex-
plained, in substance, that he had been
told things NJ Washington which he
could moi possibly have learned in Santo
Domingo This is undoubtedly true:

The Problem for the southern Cotton Planter.

To THE EDITOR or THE SuN~ Str: Yon well say
that the future Of cotton as profitable crop for
the South depends on greater economy In the pro-
ductlon OF the staple. Tae Southern movement
to Increase the price Of cotton by diminishing ts
production Is shortSghted. The South cannot
hope to retain rs supremacy as source Of cotton
supply except by furnishing cotton In abundance
At prices with which 90 other region can succcss-
fu)ly compete.
The recent decline ~ prices for cotton VIII he
o. advantage to the South permanently. however
disappointing II may b' 10 the expectations OF
large immediate profits which were raised by the
previous abnormal advance In prices II Il en-
forcing m the Southern planters the lesson Of the
imperative need OF cheaper production.
Any permanent restriction Of thr crop on large
srac Is Impossible. and even hs temporary ct-
psdient such policy viii prove Injurious by stimu-
laiing competition In cotton raising elsewhere In
thr world. Even al prescn, prices. as Mr. Lowering
remarked In Congress coltnn Yields the greatest

and the South can only hope To preserve that adj
vantage by giving It's primo thought 10 methods OF
reducing the cost Of production 20 meet the even
lower pdcrs which will surely come In tho future.

In La Eollette,s state.

First fruits OF the triumph OF the Hon,
ROBERT MARION LA TOILETTE A rail-
road commission bill was brought forth
in the Wisconsin Legislature, both
branches. last week. The bill is de-
soribed as official. 1t drips with the
sincere milk of railroad regulation as
understood by the State administration,
which is LA TOILETTE.
The Governor is to appoint three rail-
road commissioners. One Is to know
about accounts and statistics in general
way. Two are to have general knowl-
edge" of the railroad business. No ex-
perts. YOU see. This is regulation by
"the plain people that is, ordinary
politicians. These three in-a-general-
way regulators are 10 get 5000 year
apiece. Big money for Badgers
These three inexperts are TO have en-
tire control of the railroad business in
Wisconsin, .rhe;yr are to fix passenger
rates and freight rates, handling and
storage rates. They will classify freight.
They can order the railroads to build
side tracks; to supply such train service
as their wisdom directs; to furnish
shippers with cars, whether the cars are
procurable or not, In short, the COM
mission will regulate and control ac-
cording TO its own sweet will and ms If
it was absolute owner.
Mark this admirable provision for the
hearing of complaints against the work
of the commission and for the review
and recti6cation Of its errors:
The commission may adopt and enforce Such
rules regulations and modes Of procedure as 1t
may deem proper to hear and determine com

tons rates. rules. regulations and determinations

A commission with absolute power
over the railroad business and with the
further power, so helpful to the rail-
roads, Of approving as court what it
has ordered IA a commission.
it is well that the great work Of Gov

is 20 be postponed. Senator LA Fol-
LEI-rE will want to explain and recon-
mend at Washington the ingenious plan
now exhibited by Governor La TOILETTE

Major PIERRE CHARLES TENANTS body
has lain for eighty years in an unmarked
grave on Green Hill. just outside the city Of
Washington. II was L'ESFANTs genius
that made Washington the City Of Mag
nincent Distances His reward from the
Government for his lnbors was less than
5000, and in his later years he was de-
pendent on charity. Now it Is proposed
to have the Government erect n monument
over his grave. the owners OF the surround
ing land having declared their Willingness
to grant public way to the grave and dedi-
cate II as a memorial to the distinguished
engineer All that Congress is asked to
appropriate to build the monument is $500
Thus the total reward of L'ENFANr will
be not to exceed S? 500 for laying out the
nations capital, a sum that many architects
and engineers to-day would not regard az
sufficient compensation for planning a
twenty-five acre country place.
