FAIRBANKS ON SOCIALISM

Vice-President Fairbanks addressed
the General Conference Of the Method
list Episcopal Church, South in session
at Birmingham, Ala, He spoke at some
length of the growth and development
of the Methodist Church, and expressed
the hope that the two branches of Me-
thodism in America might some time
be united. Then, in a general way,
the speaker referred to the development
of the country and said, among other
things;
The socialistic tendency in certain
quarters has not escapted the atten-
tion Of the most casual observer Of cur
rent events. Its growth cannot be view
ed except with concern, for it bodies no
good to our country. The Church may
vel concern itself with all those things
whic effect the temporal welfare ofthis
great people. 1t may well concern IT.

USEFUL.

The railroads are not as popular in
this country nowadays as they might
be, but 1t should not be forgotten that
they have been and are useful. What
railroad can and does do is well told
by Alfred Kaiser, who writes about the
changes brought about in Uganda by
the building of railroad. Ten years
ago. when he first visited that region,
the railroad had only gone a short disc
lance from the coast, and the natives
showed hardly a trace of European an
fiuence. To-day the conditions are so
changed that Kaiser found it possible,
with a few companions, to spend seven
weeks passing from tribe to tribe, with
only a single hostile episode. He found
the wild Kikuyu warriors metamor-
phosed into harmless lazzaroni, several
of whom offered their services to trans
port his baggage. The dreaded Nasal
presented themselves as English-speak-
ing dandies, The Wakuafi were peace
full settlers near Fort Shimoni When
the railroad was begun in 1895 it was
almost impossible to persuade the ma
tives to serve as Iaborers, and it was
necessary to import over 10000 coolies
from India. If a new road were built
now it would be possible to secure q
considerable percentage Ct the hands
among the natives. They are acquiring

Bavarian engineers calculate the

Messing the Danube and its Alpine

to Bavarian territory. 1t is estimated
that about 100000 horsepower could be
effectively or profitably used, but of

The smart United States folks don't
do all the smart things. In the Brazil
ian State of Sac Paulo the cultivation
of india rubber plants has undergone a
complete change as a result Of the ar
rival in the country of a Portuguese o.
year ago from Ceara, a northern prov
ince of Brazil. About eight years ago
the growing of manicoba plants for the
collection of rubber was inaugurated,
but the results were not financially sue
cessful, and thousands Of five and six
year-old manicoba trees were cut down.
The advent of the Portuguese led, how
ever, to the discovery that the trees
had not been tapped at the proper time,
and that if drawn at the appropriate
period the yield Of juice from a six
year-old tree produces so per cent. of
pure rubber. As consequence the cul-
tivation of the manicoba plant in the
sac Paulo province has been resumed,
and it is estimated that 5000 acres of
land are now planted in this manner,
and that the production Of rubber will
increase every year, owing to the great
er annual yield from each tree and the
more skilful method of collection,

THE BILL sHoULD-rAss.

A bill has been introduced in the vir- ginia House of Representatives to pro vide for an appropriation of ten thous- and dollars for a monument to Matthew Fontaine Maury. This is an age of monument building and doubtless much money Is used for that purpose which might more properly and creditably be expended otherwise, but this Is an ap- propriation that ought to be made. We agree with The Norfolk virginian Pilot that virginia has had few sons who have cast greater lustre on her name" Virginia has given to the world great statesmen and warriors who have been an honor and a credit to tho country and to the age in which they lived, but we doubt If one deserves higher honors than he who has been spoken of as the pathfinder of the seas and the creator of new science
 Though Maury was a native and a resident of Virginia. he really belongs to the entirt country, and to the world at large. ftS his scientific investiEa- tions and works were for the good or
  to manhood when, as a midshipman on the vincennes. he commenced treatise on navigation which, when completed was adopted as text book in the American navy. He was still young man when he wrote and published his
 Physical Geography of the Seas, and
 wrote of the Gulf stream, ocean our
 rents and great circle sailing" Later tnvestigations and discoveries have added to maritims knowledge, but to Maury may rightfully be awarded the l honor of pointing the way to a correct | solution of much that had only been guessed at before. He was scientist whose work lives after him. and Vir- ginian whose services to the entire country and to the world cannot be for gotten. By honoring him, Virginia will honor herself. and the small sum asked for by Representative Glenn should be voted without hesitation.

Mention was made some days ago of the grave approximations felt in the North and Northeast over the possible failure of the crop of natural ice. Ar tifcial ice is so common down here that we failed to understand the situation until we saw some figures in recent issue of The New York Commercial, Among other things it informs us that "the wholesale price a year ago was $1.as a ton; now 1t Is $2." When we compare this with the cost of artificial Ice in Montgomery. even under the most favorable circumstances, we can easily understand why the large con sumers are so blue over the situation. We would think ice very cheap here, even at the higher price mentioned by The Commercial
