Railroad Question at Chicago.

The interstate commerce law convention
at Chicago, called to consider the question
of government control Of railroad rates, IL
lustrated the difficulties in the way. 1t
promptly divided into two bodies, both
claiming to be friendly to the proposition
but unable to agree as to a remedy. AS the
delegates were business men, and many of
them more or less familiar with railroad
traffic, we get some idea from their ex-
perience at Chicago of what awaits the pol
iticians in Congress when they take up the
matter. Not unlikely we shall witness a
contest which for skillful maneuvering and
acrimonious debate will surpass anything
since the civil war. Both the money ques-
ton and the tariff question led to bitterness
at times, but there is that in the railroad
question promising a mark beyond any
made in those contests. And here will ap-
pear the Presidents opportunity to shine
in the role of peacemaker-to handle at one
and the same tipe the big stick and the
olive branch.

Beware the Register Dust,

Have the furnace flues been cleaned this
autumn? Have the registers been examin-
cd and secured? Have all the accumula-
tions of dust been removed? If these pre-
cautions have not been taken there is dan
ger that sickness may closely follow the
starting of fires in houses heated by the
direct hot-air system. This Is an annual
warning, and it is necessary to repeat 1t
now.
The dust of many months has fallen or
been blown into the registers and lies there
and in the fues waiting for the first rise
of the heat to bring 1t forth into the living
rooms. This dust contains disease elements
chiefly diseases of the respiratory organs
1t IS very common to find half family suf-
fering from cold" soon after the fire has
been started in the furnace This afffiction
is attributed to the change in temperature.
or perhaps to the overheatlng of the rooms
but 1t is far more likely to have resulted
from the inhalation OF the dust from the
pipes
If II is impossible to clean the fues and
registers, an excellent plan is to start the
furnace at brisk pace and then throw
open all the windows and doors for a few
hours. Waste the heat regardless of the
coal cost. 1t Is better to burn a few pounds
times the cost in Doctors bills and lost
wages to say nothing OF the suffering
There is nothing more harmful to the
health than dust accumulated from all
sources and blown directly into the living
rooms of house. and there inhaled by ali
the occupants. This dust has come from
the carpets. to which 1t has been borne
from the streets by the shoes. 1t has blown
In through windows and doors all summer
Even the most careful housekeeper cannot
prevent the invasion, and unless the hot
air fiues and registers are tightly covered
SO that the dust cannot enter them It is
certain that autumn will find these recesses
well lined with fine particles.
So be wise in time and have the fiues and
registers cleaned. or else let the first heat
pass out of the open windows. This may
save dangerous cases OF sickness

Frontier Life In New York.

Critics of New York have often called
that city insular, ringing the changes on It's
inability to appreciate any other state OF
existence than that confined by Its boun-
darles. In some respects there is unques-
tionably ground for the charge. Many New
Yorkers are more proud of the fact that
they have never been beyond sight Of the
sky-scrapers In their lives than they are
of the sky-scrapers themselves. The geo.
graphical ignorance of some metropolltans
Is astounding. Indeed. the visitor to New
York who seeks to correct the peculiar no.
tions Of the Gothamites as to the other
parts of the country is venturing upon
dangerous ground and is often mired
deeply.
But to return. New York is an anomaly
Being insular, 1t Is also primitive. 1t Is
In some aspects a frontier town. II is
occasionally swept by the primal spirit Of
the edge of civilization. 1t Is often raw
and crude as the widest of mining settle
ments. The bad man cuts wide swath
in certain neighborhoods with the same
flourish and abandon as in the far south
west. Gun play Is frequent and Its par
ticipants show the same disregard for sur
roundings as do their prototypes Of the
wilder regions.

The Campaign Wager.

In New York the betting Is to on NC
Clellan. In Ohio the odds are 2 to 1 on
Herrick Little is heard from or about the
gamblers in Philadelphia, although there
are many claims and counter-claims as to
the local contest. The machines men are
probably too anxious to think about wagers.
while as the fusionists are opening their
meetings with prayer and singing hymns as
a means of emphasizing the gravity of the
situation betting by them would hardly be
the thing. Maryland presents problem SO
very much mixed that those with money
tucked away In their inside pockets seem
disposed to leave it there until after the
election is over.
Some years ago betting on an election
exerted considerable influence. Money was
a recognized spellbinder. 1t talked in
that way to a valuable purpose. Men about
town. and particularly young men. were
impressed when they heard well dressed
suave. and confident looking individual. in
private conversation, or standing on a chair
in a hotel lobby or fashionable barroom.
offer odds on the candidate of his choice
They regarded the offer as standing for the
individuals personal opinion, and represent
ing information he had gathered at first
hand. II his candidate was theirs they
sailed forth and worked harder than ever.
If they were on the other side they grew
just bit discouraged.
Then came a change. Betting was
adopted a means sometimes of bracing
a weak candidacy. Party managers would
set aside a sum for betting purposes, and
send fluent and aggressive "barkers' out
into the highways and byways with 1t. and
instruct them to shake 1t with confidence
under tine noses of the other fellows. 1t
was a means of creating sentiment and
giving the public a new campaign song to
sing.
This policy has In measure weakened
the power of the campaign wager People
nowadays look at the confident barker"
with crisp bills winding like a green snake
in and out between his fingers and ask
themselves whether the money Is his own,
or only part of his party's betting fund,
whether he is expressing an opinion after
investigation, or doing the boss bidding
with the boss collections.
The chances at this time appear to be in
favor of both Mcclellan and Herrick, but
the heavy odds offered on them may be no
more than campaign device to stir up
the crowd.

The Virginia Campaign.

The democrats of Virginia have, upon the
whole, put up poor campaign. They are
likely to win, but certainly not as the result
OF an appeal to the electorate on live issues
calmly and Interestingly presented. AS
stanch a democratic journal as the Norfolk
Virginian-Pilot complains of the prevailing
listlessness. 1t says;
THE trouble with the people, as we see
It. Is that they are not thinking as much as
they should. Satisfied with conditions, and
rightly SO. and confident OF the result, they
appear to be manifesting but little interest
In the campaign" -
And yet there has been call to action
which in any of the middle or western
states would have resulted in very spir-
tied contest. The republican ticket is COM
posed of men to the manner born, of dem
onstrated ability and the highest personal
character, and they have presented on the
stump issues of both local and national
weight. Moreover, they have been REIN
forced by Secretary Shaw, who has dis
cussed the questions of the day in tenn
perate and dignified way. and Secretary
Taft is to follow him in speech or two on
similar topics and pitched in the same key.
AS a sample Of the situation, and as a
response to all this, the most stirring things
are the reminder that Judge Lewis, the re-
publican candidate for governor, was a re-
publican in reconstruction days, and the
charge that at that time he favored misce-
geIation. Judge Lewis has never denied his
political faith at any time. and it Is not
fairly in question at all. AS to the other
charge, it is so preposterous that one won
ders at the campaign management which
would father 1t. Judge Lewis is naturally
indignant, and quite as much so at the
shUffling Of those who have adopted the
sla nder, as at the baseness of those who in
vented 1t. 1t is designed, as one may see,
for use in remote localities where prejudices
run high, and means of correcting false re-
ports are slow and few.
We were told by the advocates of the new
state constitution while 1t was building that,
with the negro eliminated from the elee-
torate, campaigns in Virginia would be COR
Quoted on normal lines again. But they
are not The negro has been eliminated as
a voter, but is still doing yeoman service
as a scarecrow. and seems to be the prin-
cipal democratic issue this year.

Revolution in Russia.

All the present conditions In Russia con-
spire TO render a full and fair estimate of
the general situation virtually impossible
communications are interrupted and the
government Is plainly trying to suppress
information as to the extent and spirit of
the strike. Yet enough fragmentary re-
ports have come over the border to Indicate
that the troubles are widespread affecting
practically every large city and many of
the smaller ones. that the railroad service
Is seriously crippled, that there is imminent
danger of famine and finally that the agi-
tators have taken the first steps toward or
ganizing this vast mass of revolutionary
material into a solid body with a definite
aim.
This last fact is most important OF all.
It is disclosed In dispatch from Moscow,
which tells of an effort there by the radical
committee TO organize the semblance OF a
provisional government, thus definitely put
ting the strike on a basis of political revo-
luton. This task is certain to be most
difficult On the one side there is the mill
tary power OF the czar, great enough II
swiftly employed throughout the empire, to
crush out all opposition. provided the army
Is loyal On the other side is the lack OF
any homogeneous quality In the mass OF the
Russians. any consistent political aim any
well-defined propaganda reaching the many
millions OF the disaffeeted.
In view of the great military power of the
government II is not enough that all Russia
should be discontented and that a very
large percentage OF the people should now
