ically attempt to fix the price OF but
ter and eggs with different conditions in
mnumerable markets. Again, Ameri-
can railroads already perform the cheap
est and best service in the world; a
most conclusive demonstration of the
superiority of private management over
any paternalistic schemes. Further, our
railroads have over 100000 employees
and pay about $SOO,OO0,OOO year in
wages. Should the government fix the
rate and make it lower the loss would
fall chiefly upon labor, which already
receives about one-half of the gross
earnings of the road There is still an
other class who would suffer under such
a policy, and that is the millions of
stockholders whose rights are often en-
tirely ignored in unreasonable anto-
railroad agitation. Happily, there is no
prospect of the rate-fxing bill becom-
ing law, as the senate will kill it this
session and enlightened public opinion
the next Regulation, not control, is
the true government policy.
Ease in money is not confined to New
York. All the large European financial
centers are well supplied with funds at
low rates. Even in Paris, the point of
greatest sensitiveness, there is a pie
thora of idle money and little disposi-
tion to invest it. Paris has been great
ly strengthened by gold imports, chiefly
drawn from the United States and pre-
sumably as protection to Russia finan-
'ces. But the new Russian loan seems
to have been delayed, probably because
Parisian bankers wished to wait until
internal disorders had been suppressed
by the army, which has proved lovaJ
to the government and thus immensely
strengthened its status. The foreign
money markets are therefore not at
present threatened by Russian difficult
ties. If Russian credit is maintained the
new loan will be placed without dis
turbance, and since the Japanese have
their war finances well in hand and pro-
vision made to carry on the war until
1906, the war is not likely to disturb in
ternational markets provided there be
no serious break in Russian bonds.
French and Dutch holders of Russians
continue to show great confidence in
Russia's financial strength, howsoever
financial experts elsewhere may regard
it.
The outlook for the stock market con-
tinues favorable Financial skies are
cloudless, and a hopeful spirit prevails
almost everywhere. While this feeling
lasts it is useless to look for important
reactions, although prices are now get
ting to be pertty high and the absence
of many large operators tends to restrict
previous advice to invest with perticu-
lar caution and to sell on all pronounc-
ed advances, for increased dividend pros
poets have already been pretty well dis
couraged.. ..:E.s lG ~ siifs&;SS =, iitf, EA<I

thonghtless people IN tile cities look

must go about with dOwncast looks

orally prevailing. A young man or

the sacrifices made by American civil
war soldiers, and at the same time,
before or after the memorial services
are held, without blame attend a ball
game or a dancing party. The Union

humblest citizen may have life and
liberty, aid may seek for happiness IL
his own way 50 long as lie does not In
terfere with the enjoyment OF the

Of the departed patriots to fix the Gus
toms governing the day, they would
ask those who gather to honor their
memory to forswear all worldly amuSe-
ment for the time being and assume a

There should be no game or other
public amusement while the services
are taking place; but we cannot for
the life of us see why-in a rural COM
