An Armor Plate Trust Squeal.

Not satisfied with being beaten in an open
contest for furnishing some seven thousand
tons of arnlor plate for our war vessels
steel works are complaining that they must
have portion of the business or dismantie
their plants. They offer to do some OF the
work at the Midvale price. though insisting
that 1t means an actual loss, which they
would rather suffer than dislntegrate their
organization. This is very cheerful for cor
porations which are enormously capitalized
and exceedingly prosperous. We doubt II
such plants will meet favorable ear at

Bishop Potters fear of a revolt in public
sentiment against American newspapers is
the result of the disposition to generalize
instead of to discriminate. 1t Is no more
true that all journalism must suffer because

demned for sensational activity because of
the activities of DR.. Potter or DR.. Park

THE ~NEW SOUTH IN NATIONAL
lsbfTIH>

The rising fame ~ senator Bailey.
Of Texas, and the victory OF Cap
tain Hobson over Mr.. Bankhead In
the Sixth Congressional District If
Alabama have furnished the theme
for not a little comment on the New
Sou;h" and its place in national poll
tics The new generation OF public
men which, in the course of nature,
is coming forward al the South IS,
however. by birth and tradition as
closely Identified with the Old South
as were the men OF the generation
that Is passing from The scene. SAYS
the ST Louis Republic
But the world keeps moving, and
nowhere has It i0oved faster than in
the South during the last twenty
years. II is the same old conserya-
tive and stesdfast South, bu, its
conditions, internal and external. are
vastly changed since the first inagu-
ration of President Cleveland in
1885.
In this short time the South has
made amazing strides toward the
realization of its ancient dream of
industrial prosperity in other branch
es than agriculture. The products
of its agriculture have increased
enormously in value. The South is
today more prosperous than ever II
was before, and the wonderful in
crease of population and industry is
adding to its wealth every year.
This growing economic impor-
lance would naturally give greater
weight 80 the South in national af-
fairs, but the fading of the lines of
the old sectionalism is likely to have
a greater influence in shaping the
course of new men from the South
in congress.
The generation of souther con
gressmen called by their detractors
the Southern Brigadiers' because
most of them had served in the Con-
federate army We're intent mainly
upon solving the problems left them
by the Civil war, and upon firmly
securing 10 their people the right
of local self-g government. If only
the South were let alone. the rest of
the country might do what it would
But the South will not hereafter
be so Indifferent to the general poll
cies enacted at Washington. Her
changed attitude is already seen in
the fact that the republican presi-
dent gets from Texas and South Caro-
lima his leading supporters in the
senate on question of broad ma
tional scope in which the interest
of the South in les than that of the
North, while the main plank in the
platform on which Hobson is run
ming for Congress in Alabama is for
the building of a great navy.
From now on the South is not a
silent partner in the Union Having
set its own house in order, it is ready
now for active participation in all
affairs which concern the nation at
large
The conservatism of the South and
its steadfast adherence to the prin-
cipleS of the Declaration of hide
pendence and the Constitution OF the
United States are likely to make its
contribution to the counsels of the
nation a valuable and important one.

ing of these four alleys has not
been even begun. Progress has been
made, to be sure; but it is yet true
that in the several months since
the first court was fixed upon not
board has been torn down or a
foot of ground dug. The delay, it
appears, is consequence of neces-
sary preparations by tie surveyor
and the Corporation Counsel.
No one would have the city
authorities proceed in his matter
without those preparations. 1t
would not do, even for such an OBJ
ject to risk proceeding without
warrant of law. But surely other
things can be set aside temporarily
in order that these alleys may be
opened before the middle of sum-
meF. Let some of the new streets
wait, or the opening of streets in
unimproyed subdivisions, or the ex-
tension Of streets otherwise In the
county. That work is at the utmost
a matter Of speculation or con-
venience to few people. This is a
matter of the general public health
