guessing on the probable date Of the ad.
lournment Of Congress. Two or three
woeIs ago there were few who set Q date
earlier than July I. and theFe were
Many who doubted that the session would
Gloss before the middle Of July. The speed
with which amendments 20 the rate bill
have been disposed Of has started up q
number Of ~prophets, whose dates run from
June 10 70 june Is.
The House has tie work we'll up. and
while Ito calendar 10 not cleared it is prob
able that any measure which threatens
contest or prolonged discussion will be
left over. With the rate bill out Of its way
the senate will grapple with some Of the
matters which have been held in suspense
pending the outcome Of that discussion.
Some Of these measures will be snapped
into pigeonholes, while others will be passed
with q rapidity which often ~characterizes
the work Of the Senate during the closing
lays Of q session. There are still others
over which o fight could be made, but there
10 little or no desire for any more struggle
just now.
Brief conflicts and prolonged battles are
no novelty in the big building on the hill.
but it 10 seldom that a session gets to be as
irksome to 90 large a number Of Legislators
az the one now coming to it's end. 1t is also
probable that there have been few which
left DO many bruises. Important issues
have been considered and opinions have
differed widely. There have been many
tedious hearings In committee. Railway
rates. Philippine tariff, consular reform,
pure food. Panama Canal, ship subsidy,
appropriation bills and q dozen or two other
measures Of less importance have been
thrashed over until they became a weari-
ness to flesh and brain. The tariff question
has reared it's head again and again. only 10
be pushed back into its hole. There have
been q number Of annoying matters like
the Barnes case. which has been moro or
less OF q local sensation. The Democrats
are generally disgruntled over theo outcome
Of the rate bill. out Of whichthey had hoped
to make political capital, and the majority
of the Republicans hardly know whether
they have won or lost on that issue.
In a few weeks, probably from four to
six, the session will close with q record Of
much hard work, some bitter struggles and
O collection Of compromises.

Mr.. Railey's BETTER pay.

In tho senate the other day the Hon.
JOSEPH WELDON BAILEY made this
rather curious remark:
do believe in the coming OF . better day than
this. when the man who knows that he is juss and
hines, will feel that he 10 happier In his ctOum-
stances thsn the man whose riches have been cor
ruptcd through Injustice
The honest man whose happiness Is
poisoned by the reflection that some
other men are richer than he, be their
riches acquired honestly or dishonesty,
Ia not a just man. He Is still under the
sway Of the old delusion, so long rooted
among the ancient Jews, for example,
that worldly prosperity ought to be the
reward and consequence Of righteous
ness. And some tincture OF envy Ia in
his composition. Does Mr.. BAILEY, an
honest II not always an altogether Just
man, lie awake Of nights because his
modest fortune, which would have
seemed great riches a hundred years
ago, Is smaller than Mr.. RoCKEFELLER's?
Isn't Texas full Of moderately prosper
GUS, honest citizens, content and happy?
They may object to the way in which
some vast fortunes have been acquired.
Some Of them may even believe that
bounds should be set to such acquisitions;
and where these are believed to be the
result Of unjust and unlawful methods,
they are justly indignant. AS just men,
they want justice for all. But they fear
the corruption and danger TO the Com
monwealth. They are stirred as citi-
Gems and not as individuals. They
don't have to wait for a 1better day to
feel that they are happier than they
would be if they were rich by means Of
injustice and fraud.
Il am not SO simple minded said Mr..
BAILEY, @as to dream that the old days
Of small fortunes and great contentment
will ever come again. Small fortunes
and great contentment' is an agreeable
a%ntithesis, but Mr.. BAILEY knows that
the number Of small fortunes il vastly
greater, and greater in proportion, than
in the homespun days to which he looks
back as to the golden age. AS to con-
tentment, the singular Ill fortune Of Mr..
BA1LEY's party in trying to foment dis
content in 1898 and 1900 seems to carry
a lesson. Is Farmer ROE, plodding
along in his one-horse wagon, gnawed
in his soul because he hasn't a $40, 900
automobile3 Then Farmer ROE is not
really just and honest. He expects to
be paid for his virtues.

Tho McCumber Amendment.

The Senate has added an amendment
to the House bill which again places the
upper chamber squarely in line with tho
Presidents original recommendation.
BY the McCumber amendment, passed
almost without objection, it, has greatly
strengthened the power Of the Govern
ment to keep the highways Of COM
merce open to all on equal terms
1t might have been well to add the
McCumber proposal to the Elkins act,
which it amplifes, but it is better to
have it where it is than not to have it
at all. Other amendments which the
Senate has added aid these in rounding
out the Hepburn bill and serve to make
It an effective weapon instead Of a
dummy affair.
Senator TELLER's declaration hat the
American people will find the rate bill a
gold brick" would have been warranted
II the Senate had not "obstructed' the
measure. The work OF the Senate has
been constructive and not obstructive,
and the @obstructionist" body has put
into the bill almost everything it will
contain which is not already fully COW
cred by common law and equity.

MISSISSIPPI FLYERS.
Fast Time Of tho Steamboats, In the Old
Days.

Days.
To THE EDITOR or THE SUN-s1Y: The fastest
timo ever made from New Orleans 70 Cincinnati
was s days 10 hours elapsed time. In iSls. by the
Duke of Orleans. The Diana made q fast trip two
years later, but outside Of this no steamboat en-
deavored TO break the record until the Charles
Morgan In June. 1877. left New Orleans twenty -four
hours later than tho Robert Mitchell. passed the
latter at Hawesville. and made the run 10 Gncin-
natl IN o days II hours. having made ~forty-two
landings and lost three and q half hous getting
through the canal Of Louisville.
In April Of the same year the Thompson Dean
made the run In o days 10 hours and had lost four
teen hours In the canal and seventeen hours at
way landings, The r. r. Sprinkler In 1881 came
through from New Orleans 10 Cincinnati In S days
u hours Is minutes running time. which was the
quickest made since the trip Of the Duke OF Or
leans. Her best time was made while In the Mis-
sissippi. From the time she reached the Ohio until
abe arrived at Cincinnati her speed decreased.
She consumed u hours 8 minutes more time from
New Orleans to Cairo than did the r. Z. Lee In 1870.
In March, 1881, the VIII s. Hays made the run
In Q days II hours 10 minutes, from port TO port,
having made hfty one landings and met with
several unusual detentions. In 1874 the quickest
recorded trip from New Orleans 10 Cairo was made
by the J. NJ. white, In 8 days Q hours a minutes.
in 1853 by the Eclipse In 3 days 4 hours 4 minutes,
and by the A. L. Shotweli In 3 days 8 hours 10
minutes, This time was not shortened until 1870.
when the r. z. Leo cher second rum set the pegs"
nj q days 1 hour and I minute. which remains the
quickest time 70 this day. The distance 10 900

that blunder will not hx tbs iuturc typo
N the canal but u will involve q tre-
mendoua expenditure 81 money and time
In the inevitable rectifcation.
We now observe q marked movement
Of public opinion away from tho per-
manent high level lock typo and toward
tho sea level canal as a Anality. Tho
San Francisco earthquake has been q
great educator. We have 10 doubt that
hundreds Of intelligent minds, formerly
reoonciled to the idea Of perpetual transit
through locks at n high level, have been
startled out Of their conclusions by this
one CONFUSION Of nature. What would
happen, they arc asking themselves, TO
the nations huge investment In a high
level canal, il it's locks and dams were
subjected TO the test Of even a moderate
upheaval by terrestrial forces1 So they
are saying to themselves, let us dig
with q view to the sea level and safety
from earthquakes
Yet the fact must be borne in mind
steadily that the sea level type which has
been discussed for months by experts
and reported f%avorably by a majority
Of the engineers on Mr.. RoosEvELT's
consulting board presents practically
no greater assurance of immunity from
the disastrous action OF subterranean
forces than the high level lock canal
itself. The sea level canal recommended
by the consulting board and considered
by some as the only alternative to a
permanent lock canal at n level or
another is characterized by tide locks
and O dam near Sosa Hill at the Panama
end and a dam at Gamboa not less than
1870 feet high equipped with sluice gates
to control the discharge from the
Chagres River. 1t Is accompanied by a
series OF not less than five dams and
levees exterior to the canal to divert the
waters Of intersecting streams. This
sea level canal is 80 narrow in proper
ton to the altitude Of its banks where
the cut is deepest that the imagination
can readily conceive its prism at the
mercy Of earth and rock slides under
earthquake conditions.
There. Is a radical difference between
this sort Of a sea level canal, equally
exposed with the high lock canal to the
earthquake danger, and the Straits Of
Panama. open from ocean to ocean and
az quakeproof as the natural passage
which COLUMBUS sailed to that very re-
gion to find and found not there.

The Closed Opera Shop.

The peace and security Of CoNRIED is
still threatened. The powers of union
ism combine to force him to close his
shop. That they will succeed in the
end, If they proceed wisely, cannot be
doubted. The situation is easily summed
I'D. This man CoNRIED, who came to
this country from Vienna, has acquired
a pernicious affection for free institu-
tions, and desires to make his opera
house one Of them. He has come to
believe that because he cannot find
ready made artists in this young ooun-
try he ought to import them from Europe.
He ever brings chorus singers owe
ready made instead of postponing his
next opera season till he can train a
chorus of native born singers.
Although the chorus returns in the
summer to the land Of poesy aud song,
1t cannot escape the obligations assumed
in the heat Of controversy last winter.
1t is now a union, a branch Of another
union, an offshoot Of the general union.
II the caitiff CoNRIED attempts to get rid
Of any member Of it, even Of SALzBURG,
who transformed it into a union. the
other uni7ns, those Of the stage hands,
the musicians, the ushers, the bill stick

speculators, will go on strike and mute
Music will be locked within her cell.
