CITY MAN IN THE COUNTRY.

following one on us "city folks"

laugh is on our side. 1 never was so

It has once more been demonstrated
that men can build automobiles which
can be driven at rate of little more
than two miles In a minute. But what
the ingenuity of man has not been able
to discover Is the practical use OF any
such achievement The world Is not
aware of any need for such machines
or for the maniacal spirit in man which
drives them at such speed. Driving an
automobile at that rate calls for kind
of courage which from some viewpoints
is admirable. But is there such q large
surplus of courage in the world that 1t
needs to be wasted in senseless dar-
ing? In the making of such machines
there Is no new development in me-
chanical principles. Nothing is con-
tributed to science or the useful arts.
The good" of a racing machine is in
separable from the danger and disas-
ter that attend 1t. Wonder Is excited
not by the machines, but by the driving
of them. In comparison with that the
engineer of a locomotive at top speed
has nothing to do and his work is mere
ly gentle amusement, ridiculously safe.
What a pity that when the world is
huHgering for heroism in million use
full and noble occupations, men should
lightly carry their lives into such use
less danger.

The growing tendency of legislatures
to pass laws has become a source of
alarm to many who view with candor
the results attained by the various ses-
sions What can be done to check the
flow of useless and hIischievous law
making is a question that affects our
democracy. The pressure upon mem
bers of legislatures for laws is two
fold. 1t comes from those who make
a special demand upon those they have
assisted to elect. On the other hand
there is q strong motive working upon
the legislator himself-a desire to
make record. To make record and
secure his reelection the member feels
that he must connect his name with
some bill which will make a stir. Such
men are often reelected upon their
record" and other men who did moth
ing but vote mo" ale left at home be-
cause they did not do anything"

At the recent meeting of the Interna-
tional navigation congress at Milan
some interesting data were furnished
respecting the influence which the de-
struction Of forests exerts on the dis
charge of rivers. A summary Of seven
important papers read at the congress
shows that It was allowed by all the
authors Of these papers that the re-
moval of forests, especially in billy
countries, has a marked effect on the
water supply of the neighboring rivers
Where deforestatlon has taken place
brooks have disappeared and small riv.
ers once furnishing power for mills
have ceased to be sufficient for this
purpose.

OfNone thing we may be sure, which
is that the world has not the same
China to deal with that it had six
years ago. China, wonderful to relate,
has changed and is changing now with
rapidity. 1t Is much to be doubted
that another military expedition to
Pekin similar to that OF 1900 could now
be safely undertaken. And, certainly,
were the new army to be used against
an international force such an under
taking as the Pellin expedition of 1900
would be madness. An invading force
enormously larger than the allied con-
tingents of that year would now be
necessary. The belief Is based on trust
worthy reports concerning the size and
character Of the reorganized Chinese
army, whose maneuvers late In the
autumn were critically watched by ex-
pert foreign observers.

There is q superstition In this coun-
try that there is distinction in being
rich. But a board Of tax revision has
just discovered that Charles Lockhart
of Pittsburg, who was little heard Of
while he lived and whose death, some
months ago, attracted small attention,
left an estate worth $1S0,O00,O00.
Charles Lockhart2 Charles Lockhart?
Who was Charles Locknart2 And yet
$1S0,00O,000 Is lot Of money. If there
were distinction in mere wealth, the
name of Lockhart would be famous in
stead of unknown. One hundred and
eighty millions is eighteen times the
wealth of Stephen Girard when he was
the American Croesus, in 1881. 1t Is
six times as much as was left by the
original Astor in 1S4S. 1t is just equal
to the sum William H. Vanderbilt left
when he died. the richest man in the
country, and one of the very richest In
the world. But to-day an obscure man
quietly drops of, and it takes board
of tax revision with its magnifying
glass to discover his little estate of
$180,0O0,000. And yet still we foolishly
suppose wealth gives distinction. Why,
a young author Of a popular novel has
a thousand times more distinction than
this Lockart. A good artist or a sue
cessful scientist basks m the sunshine
of fame, while this man with mere
wealth Is In the shadows of obscurity.
In these days the man who can do
nothing but make money, though he
makes it in the hundreds of millions, Is
q nobody

eral Washington, IN his farewell ad-

portance to the avoidance by the gov
eminent of the United States Of al
liances with foreign powers is the
avoidance by public officials of such
connection with business interests as
might embarrass them In the perform
ance of their official duties. While 1t
may not be practicable for all persons
holding important places in the gov
eminent, In either the legislative, exec
utive or judicial departments, to be en-
tirely free from connection with cor
porations, such as railroads, express
companies, national banks and manu-
featuring combines, 1t would be advis-
able for obvious reasons for such Off
Gals to reduce such connections to the
smallest practicable limits, not only
that personal interests may not swerve

duty but that they may not be liable to
