Railway Assessments.

Railways nowadays are considered
to be the legitimate prey Of every local
assessment committee, and although
they have in many cases conferred
a great benefit on the community and
opened up districts and given transit
facilities. railways are assessed al
most more heavily as property own
ers than any other class Of the com
munity. Prom the Car Illustrated.

M'CALL NEAR DEATH
LAST RITES OF ROMAN CATHOLIC
CHURCH ADMINISTERED TO
THE FINANciER.

New York, Feb. 1.-THE last rites
Of the Roman Catholic church were ad-
ministered during the day to John A.
Mccall, former president of the New
York Life Insurance company, at Lake
wood, N. j.. where he has been serious
ly III for some time. Father Healy of
the Church of Our Lady of the Lake,
which the Mccall family has attended
whenever at Lakewood, oficiated.
Mr.. Mccall had had a sinking spell
and the doctors had been hastily
called. His condition was such that
his family was advised to be prepared
for the worst. Subsequently Mr.. Nc
Call rallied somewhat, but bis condi
ton remains critical. Besides Mrs.
Mccall there are now In constant at
tendance three physicians and three
trained nurses.
The exact nature of Mr.. McCall's ILL
ness has not been announced by his
physicians. 1t is understood, how
ever, that he is suffering from liver
complaint. The disease has progressed
with great rapidity and Mr.. Mccall
has lost at least sixty pounds in the
past three weeks.

Fourteen and one-half minutes after

Williams went to the scaffold with

suggestions and did not finch or

words were: Gentlemen, you are

DEM MARK.
Copenh hagen.

In an article contributed TO the
Nyaarhundrede Copenhagen the Dan.
ish publicist, Ivar Borendson, re
views the peaceable restoration OF
Finland's constitutional rights. After
the rejection Of the national petitions
to the GA protesting against the man,
ifesto of 1899, the Firms seemed to
resign themselves TO their fate. The
veneer of Russianization has now been
brushed off in a single week. The
writer thus reviews the situation: The
weapon used for the purpose OF
p~aralyzing the government vas the
general strike. 1t may be the question
to which class belongs the chief part
of honor in the struggle. 4 marvellous
unity characterized the whole move
ment. While post, telegraph and rail
way traffic was stopped the entire
light supply was cut off. The strike
extended even into the private kitchen
and this was one of the reasons which
FASTENED the departure of the Russian
officials. In the meantime the ques
ton was not only should Russian guns
be directed on Helsingfors, but also
should personal safety be maintained
That so few transgressions Of the law
occurred with the whole police force
ON strike is a splendid testimony fol
the Finnish people. The revolution In
Finland hence stands as an unparalleled
example Of a popular upheaval, prov
ing the immense elastic power of ma
tional consciousness. The lessons
which Finland has learned during the
time of Russian oppression are mani.
fold. Before the discrimination, Fin.
land possessed a clean administration,
with honest judges and other function
aries, the official language Of which
was either Finnish or Swedish, the lat.
ter pre~dominating i'm the cities, the
former i'm the country districts. Six
and one-half years later there is q
corrupt and lawless government, with
Russian as the sole language. Mutual
confidence In the supremacy of the
law, which has been lost during this
period, cannot be restored at once. The
imperial manifesto, announcing the re
turn Of the former status quo, Is but
a formal thing. The Firms realize fuh
well that the solemn ukase only mean
that the Ru~ssianiZation Of Finland
must be suspended for the time being
Whether 1t is going to be tried once
more, depends on the condition OF
things In Russia. Finnish co-opera.
ton with the liberal movement in Rus
STA must therefore be continued. While
the liberal classes In the empire VALUE
the moral support Of the bloodless vic
tory In Finland, the country sees tho
guarantee Of its privilege only In .
