AN UNIVERSE AN.

According to report the Federation
of Labor is seriously considering the
establishment Of a labor theatre
where plays of an educational charac.
ter, dealing with labor questions from
the point of organized labor, will be
presented solely for the edification OF
workingmen
At least this is the purpose Of the
majority of the committee in charge OF
the project. But an influential and
common-sensible minority is opposed
to this idea, holding that the working
man gets all he wants of labor ques
lions and discussions thereof in his
daily toll, and that. therefore, the rep.
ertoire Of the labor theatre should be
made up OF plays of an entertaining
character in which the workingman
may find relaxation and relief from
the every day strain and grind.
After a man finishes a hard days
labor he wants rest. If he can OBJ,
tain rest at a theatre he will 60 to
bed refreshed. If the theatre tells him
the story he is SO used to hearing and
living each day he gets no rest and is
not in a state Of mind or body the
next morning to do his part as work
man.
II, on the other hand, he sees some
thing not bearing on his daily life or an
ordinary play Of the better class, he is

The work of Mr.. HINT in the Sd an
IS being watched by the moneye{ In
terests of the world and if he Is sue
cessful In developing that part Of the
dark aIars continent he will have done a
great service to humanity. Egypt is
making remarkable material progress.
In the last few years ITO companies,
with capital of S165, 100000, have
been registered in the land OF the
Pharaohs. Last year its imports ex-
ceeded in value those of the preceding
year by more than $5,000,000.
The railroad from Cairo to Cape
Town, extending the entire length OF
the African continent, will soon be a
reality. For years the French have
been quietly at work on their railroad
from Algiers. to the Soudan. These
lines will compete with each other In
the development Of Central Africa.
Three transcontinental telegraph
lines have been partly constructed and
VIII be carried to completion as soon
as possible. One will extend from the
Cape to Cairo, with the British rail-
road. Another will cut through the
heart Of Africa from east to west, Its
terminal points being the mouth OF
the Congo and Dar-es-S alam. The
third line will connect the important
points on the west coast with the
coast Of Algiers.
The significance OF these great pro-
jects is easy to perceive. The tele--
graph and the railroad are the sure
f9rerunners of modern progress. It
Was only thirty-fve years ago that
David Livingstone penetrated the

part toward securing q big improve

tive there begins an actual drain upon
the railroads treasury. Had the big
hearted people who gave SO readily to
the relief funds been compelled to pay
for the transportation of supplies to
California the victims of the earth
quake would have been in sore
straits, for the freight charges would
have eaten up great part of the
total of the donations. But railways
and express companies did their part
nobly, and the sum total of their actual
expenditures to aid in the relief work
would run high into the hundreds Of
thousands.
Credit should be bestowed where II
is due. In this case the much berated
corporations deserve credit for their
generosity and their readiness in ex
tending aid Of the right kind.

points In the history of legislation

wider attention and more general in

oTTuMWA's INTERuRRAN RAIL
WAY,

Papers have been fled Incorporating
the Ottumwa & Southeastern Iowa In
terurban Railway Co. and the indica-
lions are that the concern intends to
go through with the work of building
an interurban railroad with all the
speed possible Heretofore OttumWa's
interurbans have been built largely up
on what is commonly called hot air.
but when company deposits several
hundreds of dollars in order to file In
corporation papers, the action means
that the company intends to carry out
its part of the contract.
There can be no possible question
as to the need in Ottumwa and the
surrounding territory of an interurban
railroad. 1t needs no argument to con-
vince the wideawake man-business
man or property owner--that his inter
ests will be furthered by the estab-
llishment of an interurban line. 1t
means the putting of money into the
cash drawers Of the merchants of OF
tumwa and of the towns the line will
touch. 1t means convenient line for
passenger service between Ottumwa
and the nearby territory. 1t means a
freight service that cannot be equalled
by that of steam lines. 1t means all to
Ottumwa and southeastern Iowa that
the interurban lines in operation in
other states have demonstrated that
they can do for the country through
which they operate.
An interurban road from Ottumwa
to Des Moines will be of direct value
to the merchants of Ottumwa, the
farmers owning land along the line Of
road, and to the merchants in the
smaller towns through which the line
will run. This is not to be road
from Des Moines to Ottumwa, but one
from Ottumwa to Des Moines. It will
be built from Ottumwa, and the traffic
will be toward Ottumwa first. This
will, as matter of course, start the
traffic and the business toward this
city and toward the towns between
Ottumwa and Des Moines People will
ride and will ship goods over the par,
of the road that is first put in opera
ton, and when they have started that
way it will be the mission of the PEG
pie who profit by the innovation tc
keep trade coming. This dan be done
by fair and honest treatment, and
this can be given to- the customers
|'that the interurban will bring to OF
tumwa, as 1T is given to all the Gus
toners who now patronize the Ottum
wa stores.
