Hartman Approves Plan for Union
Pacific Machine TO the Pa

I'VE have at last got what we. regard
as practical gasoline motor for rail
road work, the first practical gasoline
motor in the world, and its discovery
means almost as much as the discov-
cry and construction of the first rail
road steam engine
This is what julius Kruttschnitt, di
rector of maintenance and Transports
ton for the Hartman lines, says re-
garding the new motor which has re.
Gently been completed in the shops of
the Union Pacific road. With the DOS.
sible exception of heavy through train
service. it is declared the motor is en-
tirely capable of doing the work now
done by steam, and the management
of the Hartman lines has determined
to put the motors in service on all the
branch lines of the system and to sub
stitute them for steam trains on the
main lines where the runs are short
and not too heavy.
Trip Across Continent.
With the approval of E. H. Harri-
man, transcontinental trip is being
arranged for the motor 1t is proposed
to operate it from Omaha to Portland
and to exhibit it there at the exposition
for short time. Then the car will be
run over the Shasta route to San Fran
cisco, from there to Los Angeles, thence
to New Orleans and Chicago by the
way of st. Louis.
Between Chicago and Milwaukee the
car will make special runs with a view
to testing its speed and power abili-
ties. and subsequently will be taken
to New York by the way of Buffalo and
back again by the way of Washington
and Pittsburg.

NOTES OF THE RIVER.

Capt. w. A. Thompson, who has
charge of the government work at La
Crosse said that the only work which
is being done on the river by the gov
ernment at the present time is the
placing of buOys on the ends of the
wing dams. About a hundred of these
are placed every spring as they are
regularly stolen by steamboats,, and
frequently rust loose and float away

THE COURTS WILL DECIDE.

The whole country Is interested in
the contest now being waged in the
City of New York over the result of the
recent election in that city. It Is of the
first Importance that in a government
where all authority is derived from the
will Of the people that an honest ex-
preston of that will should be Sc
cured. For that reason hundreds OF
thousands of Americans who have no
interest in William r. Hearst, or in
the policies that he represents honest
ly desire that if he was actually elect
ed mayor of the great city that he
should be declared elected and take
his seat.
We have had, however since the
night of election good illustration OF
the methods and character of that
man. We have had glaring headline
announcements about the terrible elec-
toral frauds that We're committed, We
have had one sensation after another
People not familiar with Hearst and
his methods were no doubt convinced
from the beginning that gross crimes
were committed against the ballot
Statements were widely printed that
ballot boxes were taken from the voting
places and thrown into the North Riv-
er. These statements on investigation
were found to be untrue. Then state

owner of the cloven hoofs. How any
one can reason God out of existence
and reason Gods outlaw in is a prob
lem not easy of solution, save on the
explanation that there is no accounting
for the whims of an idiots fancy. 1t is
not the first time that a statue has
been raised to the internal ruler. Gill
bert's Street History of Dublin" tells
how over the arched entrance to an
alley behind Christ Church Cathedral
there stood for generations carved
wooden figure of Satan. The alley bore
the appropriate name of He'll, and it
contained several coffee houses and
taverns which were the resort of IA
nous lawyers and wits. Here is found
the clue to the name and the statue,
since the lawyers over there claimed

slaves. The Russian people from this
treatment of the Jews have become
accustomed to look upon them as but
j little better than dumb animals.
1t is probable that the prosecuted
Jews of Russia are doing more today
for the betterment and emancipation
of Russia than any other single force
in that Empire. The Jews are students.
Jewish working men are today among
the foremost fighters for the freedom
of Russia. They are battling not only
for their own rights but for the liberty
of all. They are found in every upris-
ing which has for its object the end
of despotism. 1t is not to be wondered
at that they are the object of the hatred
of the police and other special agents
of the Autocracy of Russia: but it is
sad to think that this people who are
doing so much for the freedom of their
country and their fellow-men should
be the object of such awful atrocities
at the hands of the very persons who
are most benefited by their efforts.
No people, not even the Irish. have
suffered for race and religion as have
the Jews. Race hatred against them
has subjected them for centuries to
every form of oppression and persecu-
ton. Religious hatred sufticed for CEN
turtles to make them a special target.
The world outgrew the spirit of re-
ligious persecution but it seems that
there still exists in the great Eastern
Empire of Europe a barbarous race
hatred which is today causing the
slaughter of thousands of defenceless
men, women and children. This whole
thing seems so much more terrible be-
cause the Jew refuses to strike back
No more inoffensive people ever lived.
Most any person driven to despera-
ton by torture will use the same in
struments against his enemies that
they have used against him. The very
fact that they are so peculiarly I'M
offending themselves arouses more
sympathy for them. 1t is the duty of
the Christian people of the world to
acquaint themselves with the crimes
that are being committed against the
Jews and to inaugurate some method of
preventing these constantly recurring
horrors.

which promised to do so much good
has not been entirely satisfactory. The
main provisions of the act for the re-

consider the question of an amend

The convention meets at a fortunate
time for the determination of the at

to maintain towards the Liberal Party
that the convention will not tolerate
utilization with a Liberal Party led by
Lord Rosebery. The time has gone by
when the NatiorPlists can be depended

a liberal ministery which they oppose
when put forward by the Conserva-

a strong united and Independent Ma
