What Might Be Done.

By CHARLES MAcKAY
What might be done if men were wise
What glorious deeds, my suffering
brother,
Would they unite
In love and right,
And cease their scorn of one another
Oppression's heart might be imbued
With kindling drops OF loviug-kindness:
And knowledge pour,
From shore 60 shore.
Light ON the eyes of mental blindness
All slavery, warfare, lies and wrongs,
All vice and crime, might die together,
And wine and corn
To each man born
BE free as warmth in summer weather.
The meancst wretch that ever trod,
The deepest sunk in guilt and sorrow,
Might stand erect
In self-respect'
And share the teeming world tomorrow.
What might bedone2 This might be done,
And more than this, my suffering broth
cr-
More than the tongue
Fer said or sung,
n men were wise and loved each other.

The demands Of Modern RalIroadIng

Some idea OF the magnitude of
the demands Of modern railroad
ing, says the Boston Transcript,
may be gathered from the fact that
the Pennsylvania Railroad direct.
ors win be asked for appropria-
tions this year aggregating almost
800, 000, 900 for construction and
equipment. The work in connec-
|tion with the New York tunnels
and terminals will require a large
part of this expenditure, and the
work on the Washington and on
the elevated tracts at Camden will
grequire another large sum. The
construction and equipment esti.
mates which have been made up
.provide for the expenditure Of
0s20, 600, 600 for additional motive
power and cars. An order, sub
|ieet to cancellation in the event Of
'the failure Of the directors to APP
prove the estimates in March, or
In the event Of an unexpected de-
cline in business, has been placed
with the Baldwin Locomotive
works for 200 additional lOcomo-
|tives. The Altoona shops will
construct 1853 locomotives to re.
place old ones, and baild forty ad-
iillonal engines. The passenger

sOuthern EduoatIon Appreolated.

There is a small class at the
North who honestly imagine that
the South is doing little or nothing
towards education Of either whites
or blacks, and this class would be
glad to see Federal supervision of
public schools as exists in Porto
BicO and in the PHILIPPINES. This
class are encouraged by such
language as was recently uttered
by DR.. Alderman, in which he la
mented that our public men are
not up to the standard Of their
predecessors. 1t appears that the
great BODY Of Northern people,
however, are disposed to do full
justice to the South. Recently
one of the professors Of Yale Col
lege, Hershey Sheath, made a tour
OF observation through the South
in the interest of his great institu
ton, which would like to encOur-
age the patronage of the Southern
people. He was very much de-
lighted with what he saw in the
South, and was deeply impressed
with the spirit of Southern educa
tors and the praisewOrthy charac
ter of their work.
cit Is the cue of a well known
Conference of Northern would be
patrons of the Southern public
school system" says the Baltimore
Sun, "and Of their Southern hang
ers on to depreciate Southern
schools; to search with microscop.
ic eye for defects and dwell upon
them alone with the object of
showing that outsiders know best
how to educate the coming gener-
atiOn-especially the future negro
voters. But according to Prof.
Sheath their representations Of the
state Of school affairs in the South
are misleading"
Speaking OF the public school
system Of the South, Prof. Sheath
said in an interesting interview
printed in the Yale Alumni Week
":
"They have done great things
there during the last quarter Of
century. IN the face Of tremend.
Gus difficulties they have built up
Okolona messenger. (Okolona, Miss.) 1900-current, 1905-02-15

an excellent system OF public in
structiOn. This has called for
much sacrifice or the part II the
Southern people. But they we're
willing to make it. Deprived of
nearly everything but moral cOur-
age by the civil war, and with no
system Of public schools In exist
ence, they created a good sy stem
in every State. They have tri-
umphed over economic. industri-
al, social, racial difficulties, and
have given both the whites and
blacks equal educational advanta
ges. l take my hat off literally
and fguratively to such a people,
and we all ought to be thankful for
a notable achievement"
"This is a just dictum," says
the Baltimore Sun. "Appreci-
alton of what has been done and
what is doing must be the first
step, if an outsider wishes to gain
the confidence Of Southern educa-
tors. The gumshoe method of de-
vious approach, with the object of
getting control of Southern educa.
ton and changing its character ac-
cording to precOnceivPd Northern
ideas, is an erroneous method.

mingtOn shops. A steel rail order
recently placed calls for expendi-
ture Of about So, OOO, 600 for this
purpose.
When these additions are made
to its equipm Mt, in connection
with the large number Of freight
and coal cars ordered, the Pensyl

tee of the directors and then the
directors as a body before being
approved. In this way every.
thing not needed is cut off, and
yet the balance left reaches an
enormous sum. For some years
the railroads of the country have
been getting behind in their equip
ment, sometimes because they did
not look far enough ahead to pro-
vide for a growing business, and
sometimes because the capacity Of
the shops was reached when they
ordered cars and engines, and they
have had to wait for a long time
to have orders filed.
II other roads were to expend
such large sums, proportionately,
as has the Pennsylvania, the shops
of the country could not meet the
demand for equipment, and the
only thing for the roads to do is to
put ia orders far in advance Of
their present needs. The condi-
ton of the country and the present
time iustifes a healthy growth in
the transportation business in the
next foul years at least, and the
roads should prepare to meet the
demands which will come upon
them. The shipper who has to
wait for a car does not always
understand the difficulties which
the railroads have TO meet, al
though it is true that these diff
culties could be lessened by such
action as the Pennsylvania has
taken.

EmpedOeles and other Greek
philosophers, says the Philadel.
phia Inquirer, $500 years ego
noticed that occasionly there we're
certain spots on the sun which
hey could not account for in any
scientific manner. There we're
those Of their contemporaries who
had ready explanations, but they
seldom satisfied the entelligent.
It may be said, by the way, that
the theories Of scientific men be-
fore the Christian era were much
nearer those Of the present than
some which obtained N to the fl
teenth century.
We know that we depend on the
sun for heat and life as we under
stand it. Not until recently have
astronomers been able to give any
theory Of the cause of the period
lefty of sun spots about every
eleven years. The fact has Icing
been known and it has by some
been connected with electrical
Disturbances, by some with phys
ical conditions and by others with
genealogical conditions not clear
Ily explained. Two weeks ago our
own Professor Snyder, of the high
school or more properly director
bi the municipal observatory, de.
duced a theory that has set the
whole astronomical world agOg.
He claims that the varying phen-
bmena observed in the sun are &C
counted for by the fact that radium
and the element known as radium
eminatiOn (better described as
cOrOnium), are constantly giving
forth electrical explosions, which
are in a sense to be differentiated
from chemical conditions.
Professor Snyder explains sun
spots in an ingenious and perfect
ly rational way on the ground that
the primal disturbances due to "a
diO activity, occur without the
SUMS photosphere, a fact which is
generally agreed upon, but that
the result is a cooling off and vOr.
tex creation which sends the heav-
Ter material toward the center of
the sun, and this accounts for the
openings which we call sun spots.
This may seem technical, but it is
easily explainable when we realize
that the heat and energy of Che
sun r SO great that any vari-
ations Of large degree show differ
ient colors. We cannot express
the heat Of the sun in terms, but
we all know that in looking into a
CRATE fire there are varying de.
grees OF color. That eleven years
should intervene between the most
active periods can only be explain
ed on the physicO- chemical con-
ditions in the sun, which are pro-
duced by radium. At present we
have a theory that is at least sat
i~sfactory as far as it goes. And
SO far, there has been nothing to
indicate that it is based on wrong
conjecture.
It is interesting that the Phil.
adelphia observatory is taking the
lead in explaining so many phen-
lonomena Of nature which have
hitherto resisted the philosophy of

Two centuries ago a man who

writing. These two men happened
to be irequenters Of LlOyd's coffee
house in London, which was a

the town to gather to discuss bust
ness or to gossip. Others imme-
diately saw the advantage OF the
scheme which there colleagues had
devised and on the next voyage
the risk was parceled out among a
larger number Of the patrons of the

NEGRO HOME DYNAMlTED.
White Residents Of Neighborhood OBJ
ect to His Presence

SEATTLE, June 21-An attempt
has been made to blow up the nome OF
Robert Jones, a colOred man residing
at ZOOS Thomas street. Two heavy
charges of dynamite were placed on
the front porch, but only one exploded.
All the windows in the place were
blown out and the porch was badly
wrecked The windows of several ad-
Joining houses were also broken. Jones
and his family escaped injury, other
than a very bad scare.
= Police Sergeant Powers and Detec-
tive Adams made an investigation, af-
ter the matter was reported to head
quarters, and are convinced that some
one residing in the neignborhood is re-
sponsible for the crime. Jones claims
he has no enemies in the world, that
he knows of, but almost everyone in
the neighborhood thinks differently. 1t
is a white district ar4d Jones presence
is not wanted there.
1t is charged by his neighbors that
Jones does not pay his debts, but this
seems to be his most serious offense,
other than living where he is not
wanted.
The police are satisfied that the
charges of explosives were placed in
position by some one unfamiliar with
dynamite. If a weight had been placed
on top of the charge that did go Off,
there would have been nothing left OF
either Jones or his home. The fuse
attached to the second stick went out,
and after the explosion this stick was
found lying 20 feet away from the
house.
Jones win ask the police to furnish
him with protection as he does not in
tend to move out of the neighbornood
until he is carried away in box.
