cooD ADVICE TO NEWSPAPERS.

Newspaperdom.
There are few newspapers in live
second class cities whose editors ape the
hysterical typography Of the New York
Journals editorial page. Why they do
il is mystery. Our advice to them is
don't. What does il add to an editorial
to use capitals, italic, full face, antique,
gothic in its composition IL adds
nothing whatever, except the flavor Of
ioolishness and mountebankry.

some of the Addicks Republicans of the
Legislature have, as was stated in Every
Evening on Saturday, signed pledges to
vote for Col. Henry A. du Pont for United
States Senator at the Republican legis-

night. But will they keep those pledges
II they break them, then look out for the
liveliest kind OF rumpus in that caucus.

This years strawberry crop was much
smaller than the average, but il is said
that It was much more profitable The
scarcity kept prices at high mark, and
in consequence the margin Of profit was
very good, so that in the end the small
crop proved more remuneative than a
large crop at smaller prices would have
been.

Will Double Track Entire Main System

An Associated Press dispatch from San Francisco says large in- creases in the business of the Santa Fe railway have resulted in the de- cision to double track the entire main system to San Francisco. Already there are many miles of double track between the wheat fields and the Chicago terminal, and the main line east of the Mis- sissippi also is double tracked.
 Plans have been app roved for the extra track as far west as Albu- querque, but there remains 1900 miles between there and San Fran cisco, double tracking for which probably will be authorized by the board of directors in a few days. In addition to these improvements it is believed that the Santa Fe is about to obtain another shipping outlet by connecting with Calves ton from Albuquerque. It was re- ported several days ago that the system had obtained control of the Gulf x Midland lines, and this cor roborates the rumor.
