AN EDIsoN rxrprcrror.

That Thomas A. Edison well de- serves the title of "wizard" is indis- putable; not the wizard of ancient SUI perstition but the one who does things through human effort entirely. When he makes a scientific prediction we may sometimes be startled and scep- tical but it is never safe to affirm that his words will not be verified. One of hIs latest is with regard to his new motive power Fin the form of a thoroughly emcient storage battery. He tells us that the horse is bound to become an obsolete quantity as a drawer of vehicles. To use his own words: Tn fifteen years from now the horse will be 8 curiosity; we shall be paying fifty cents to look at him in sideshows."
 Now. as to that part of his predic- tion we feel fully at liberty to enter tain serious doubts. Ever since cleo power. we have been told that 1t would soon drive the horse out of business, but the horse is still with us. Not only that, but the statistics and market reports show that he is about as much in demand as ever. MT. Edison was indulging in bit of pleasantly, but he is in earnest when speaking of the invention or improve ment which he is now promising to the world as a motive power. We copy the language of The Columbia State as a brief explanation of what has of late been spoken of by many newspapers. That paper says:
 The prophecy MT. Edison makes upon the strength of the success he a cheap and eficient storage battery. The wizard of electricity announces that complete success has at last crowned his efforts in this direction. next spring a new storage battery that will revolutionize present meth ods of transportation. To Q represen- tative of The New York Times, MT. sell at a cost of $2O0 a ten-cell bat tery that would be practically inde- structable, that will last without re: newal for fifteen years. and that win bout or brougham one hundred thou sand miles. Asked if there was not some possibility of failure the great inventor replied, Absolutely none." All that he had been waiting for. so Mir Edison explained, was first to find the metal cobalt In sufficient quanti- ties, and then. to find cheap process of separating the mineral from the ores with which it is associated In both these particulars. unqualified success had been attained.
 So while what he says about the horse becoming obsolete in fifteen years is in the nature of over-enthu- siasm. we are not at Aberty, to dis pute the claims he puts forth about his storage battery. If he is not mis- taken in his calculations all must see that if a vehicle can be fitted up for $200 that will run one hundred thou sand miles, it is plain that 1t will be cheaper than owning and keeping a good horse. and if it can thus be used for pleasure carriages, there can be no good reason why 1t will not also be effective for drawing freight, especial ly in the cities. He is not in habit of talking at random when discussing scientific or mechanical subjects. so, while we do not look for the horse and the mule to become objects of curiosity, certainly not in fifteen years, that space of time may see them very generally displaced as mo- tive powers.

The Natchez (Miss) Democrat says

Publicity is one thing that counts Open the doors so that all the evi- dence in a suit for divorce can be heard by the spectators, ostracise men and women of loose morals.and there will be a change for the better. The newspapers need not print the evil dence. 1t will be passed around among the people"
 We venture that those states in which the divorce cases are tried by 1uries do not have the advantage over those where the curious public do not have the opportunity of listening to the disgusting details that are brought forth. Luckily. in the South We do not have much of the divorce evil which in certain sections of the Union has become a scandal and shame. A law to prevent absolutely one of the parties to a divorce suit from re-mar- rying during the life of the other, would do more good than jury trials,

The Corporatoin Lawyef.

Chicago Tribune.
 There is no lawyer in toe United States who would refuse fee from corporation if its character were of such a nature as to make 1t desery- ing of his professional aid There,s danger that the public mind will become confused and that those per sons who read little and think less upon the subject eventually may come to believe that corporation which is merely an indispensable instrument for carrying on business. public anJ private. in civilized country. is a monster of so. frightful mien, as to be hated needs but to be seen."
 Probably the wanton ;'>use of the word will lead to the correct defini: tion of its meaning. The reople will begin to see that the modern word can not get along without the corpor- alton. Business can not be carried or without it except in clumsy and awkward way.
 If there are to be corporations. CO., poration lawyers" must exist. And as the corporations transact the most important business of the country they need and will have the highest class of lawyers to attend to their affairs. To be known as "a corpor. aticn lawyer" a man must have hat some measure of success in the prac- tice of his profession and the tit: should be one of honor and dignity instead of one of reproach

 Bystander got the pole in the draw ing and kept it all through the race. Delilah owned by Davis of San Bernar- dino and driven by Delaney, kept close up to Bystander and was not far to the rear in the finish. which was made in 2:OSA. In the second heat they logged around almost even with each other after an ideal start, utilizing 1:O7 in getting to the half. At the wire the finish was altogether too close for Bystander's comfort and it was a real race to the last second. In the third heat Delialah broke for a mo- ment about a third of the way round. but quickly recovered and was making it lively for Bystander when he passed the half in 1:O1k. Then the Phoenix horse gained and won easily in 2:OS. It was thought at first when the time for the half was announced that there was a mistake. but the fact was verified by other watches not In the timekeeper's stand, so there was no guesswork about it.

SPEAKS OF THE ALPHABET"
Also the Mythical Hosd Electric
Road is Referred To.

From Mondays Dallv.
In story which tells of the many
railroads-steam and electric-which are
heading for Minneapolis-The Journal
refers to the "Alphabet" and the Hord
roads as follows:
The "Alphabet" road, which, it is gen.
orally expected, the Illinois Central will
use to bottle up the st. Louis road. is
a semi-mysterious line which is being
built from Albert Lea, st. Cloud and
other points to Duluth, with Mime
apolis connection. The line is known
as the Duluth, ST. Cloud, Glencoe &
Mankato.
Colonel Hord's electric line is expect
ed to connect Mankato and Minneapolis,
passing through Chaska and along the
shore Of Lake Minnetonka. The Hutch
inson & Western company is another
organization which plans to build from
Hutchinson through Mcleod, Meeker.
Kandiyohi counties, etc., with a line to
Minneapolis. The A. B. Robbins line
will give much needed frequent service
