Andes and the Locomotive.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
AS a rule the Americans who keep pace
with the worlds development are not In
active business and IL they make any sug
gestion they are ignored or snubbed. We
have had more or less business relation with
Mexico, just across a line. for century
and have not yet learned how to pack the
things we sell to its people so that they are
willing to receive them.
We know little of the progress of develop
ment In the interior OF Africa and less OF
the interior of South America, so that prob
ably half of us were surprised to read on
Tuesday morning of the opening the day
before of the first section of the Trans
Andean railway. which Is to connect VAL
paradise. the chief port of Chill on the Pa
cinc with Buenos Ayres, the chief port of
Argentina on the Atlantic. Roughly speak
ing the completed line will be something
over / 900 miles long and its effect on trade
movements is likely to be marked.
For most of the traffic round the world
from the East Indies, as We once called the
tropic east, to Africa. South America and
the vast British colonies of the remote
southwest this line cuts of all the perilous
navigation around Cape Horn and Will save
distance and time enough In many cases TO
Justify transshipment.
Lines of steamers have long piled De-
tween Europe and Buenos Ayres. and the
opening of this railway line Is certain TO
be followed by steamer lines leading from
Valparaiso to Australia, India, China and
Japan, with others eastward from Buenos
Ayres to the South African ports.

Macpherson, M. P. for Preston, takes the
lead. He began life as a cabin boy; at
eighteen he became a steel smelter and
at twenty-one founded the Steel Shelters
Society, which came In existence in 1892
He was a born leader, and his rise was
very rapid. He displayed such marked
ability that his organization. in order to
equip him for the battle of labor against
capital, sent him to Oxford to take special
courses of study in political economy and
kindred sciences; and he graduated from
Ruskin College. This college, by the way,
is a sort of training school for future labor

of trade and is managed by representatives
OF the trades unions, the Amalgamated So
cieties of Engineers and the London trades
council. 1t has already turned out 232 stu
dents who took active part In the speech
making during the recent labor campaign,
and were credit to their university
Persons who imagine that labor has ap-
preached the battle against capital with
crude methods of warfare will be very much
mistaken. In it's captains skillful parlia-
mentarians and leaders of men have been
chosen and all the present phalanx of fight
ers are using the most up-to-date methods
of social warfare. Astonishment has been

VIII Thorne is another remarkable
character who has come Into his own"
from direst poverty. He came a toiler at
seven years old, at Birmingham. in a brick
field. He helped to support a mother and
three orphan brothers, his father having
died when the boy was nine. He entered a
steel mill, then coke plant, then as build
erS laborer, working in the brick fields In
summer and the gas works in winter He
was always a discomfort, and from taking
part In various strikes. which at first failed,
lost employment He finally settled in West
Ham, one of London's poorest districts and
succeeded in organizing the gasworkers of
that section-the most unskilled Of Lon
don's laborers. Their first meetings We're
held in open lots near the gas works. He
formed these men into union, and they
fought a strike for an eiglht-hour day and
won.
Thorne's labor union was organized on
purely socialistic lines. the stated object
being ito fight capital. to promote poiiti-
cal action, and to encourage collective
ownership" Thorne became a member OF
the West Ham council, and subsequently
deputy mayor. He represents the extreme
labor element, jealous Of capital, and en-
phasizing their rights by sheer force of or
ganization.
The same life history attaches to many of
the other labor representatives who VIII
take their seats as NJ. P.'s in the next par
liament-all, or nearly all, risen from the
lowest rungs of the social ladder. F. W.
Jowett, prominent in the IL. r. c." was
a mill hand; John Ward started as q dock
laborer; CIynes as a factory boy A. Ii. GIL
sold newspapers; c.. H. Roberts was print
er; T. Burt, coal miner; +. Madison. COM

party and will share power with Crooks.
worked for years as ''pitman'' IN coal
mine, while John Burns of the liberal min
istry began his career in an iron foundry.
Though Burns has not been classed among
the labor leaders-accepting the position or
cabinet minister seeming to have raised
him so far out of the ranks-there Is no
doubt that much of his best Interest will
be at one with the new labor movement.

ROMANCE OF
THE AIRSHIP
BY GERTRUDE BACON.

Until such a time the flying machine
shall demonstrate its hoped-for powers. and
man shall steer his course about the sky by
his skill and speed alone without the aid of
gas bags to lift him from the ground-the
; romance of aeronautics will center around
the airship. Up to a very few years ago
balloons had 1t all their own way; and truly
there Is no lack of romance about balloon.
1t Is a splendid thing to hang suspended by
a sIllSen globe a couple of miles above the
earth's surface; to drift idly. hour after
hcur. through realms of space whose beau
ties are beyond description; to float, like
thistledown. upon the back OF the summer
breeze.
: But II Is a far finer thing to steer course
among the clouds; to SAIL not drift, about
the ocean of air; to fly, like bird, whittier
one wishes, not where the wind llsteth.
There Is as much comparison between bal
looming and 'airshipping' Ito coin much
needed word as there is between drifting
llelplessly In an oarleSs, sailless, rudderless
boat, and guiding steam launch under
perfect control by the shortest route to the
desired haven. In the one case you have
impotence. in the other power.
Let 1t be remembered that the skipper of
an airship enjoys to the full the rapturous
delight that belongs TO balloon voyage.
He has the same matchless panorama
spread beneath him. the same wide unfold
ing Of the ever-changing landscape, seen as
only the high flying birds can behold IT.
He has the same sense of emancipation, OF
escape from earth and it's petty worries;
the same feeling Of freedom, of space, OF
peace. He has all of this, and along with
f. the added sense of energy and voliton.
