MRS. JEFFERSON DAVIS.
Portland oregonlan.

Mrs. Jefferson Davis, after long Iln-
gering In the Valley OF the shadow, has
passed ON. Perhaps no figure in the
fallen fortunes Of the Southern Confed-
eracy, except that OF jefferson Davis
himself, was more conspicuous and In
sense more pathetic than this loyal
ana heroic wife's. The eighty years OF
the life OF Mrs. Davis covered period
al once the most stormy and peaceful,
the most gloomy and the most pros
porous, IN the history OF the republic,
Like all Southern women, she was In
tensely sectional in her loyalty to her
country. and though time had taken
the keen edge from her disappoint-
ment and sorrow at the failure Of the
attempt to establish the Southern Con-
federacy, and age had softened the
asperltles born OF intense convictions
and bitter conflict, she was until the
last loyal To what she considered the
just contention Of the South for sep
arate government with negro slavery
as its cornerstone.

are In operation. The horse cars have
vanished, and the increased equipment
is handled with a vastly increased
speed. Every car Is crowded, even
with the one-minute service at the
downtown stations, And yet the
transportation problem is unsolvea.
The city has not been able to keep up
with the increasing volume Of traffic,
The cable lines OF that city serve
the three great divisions Of the city
north. south and west, with detecting
lines to the northwest and to the
southwest. These cars provide the
very worst street car service known
to any city In the nation. They are
slow, the cars are shattered by age
and the rails are uneven and rough.
Broken cars are common and ces-
sation of traffic at the rush hours is
the expected incident OF every day.

DECISION ON ALIEN LABOR.

The first important ruling from Sec
retary Straus of the Department OF
Commerce and Labor, Is In regard to
alien labor importations. The state OF
North Carolina in order to induce i'm
migration pays the expenses OF cer-
tain classes Of aliens and procures
them work upon arrival. Southern la
Dor unions protested and cited the
contract alien labor statutes. Mr..
Straus has ruled that the latter have
not been violated and that to induce
legitimate immigration is not to I'm
port alien labor. The distinction seems
fine and the courts must decide the
delicate question. Adverse decisions
would greatly retard the movement to
turn immigration into the southern
states.

DIFFERENT MANAGEMENT.

Advocates of the parcels post are
publishing some interesting figures,
showing that the British postoffice
during 1905 carried 100000 parcels
at about one-sixth the charge paid for
like service in this country. At the
same time the British postal surplus
was s24,o0O,Oo0, while the United
States postal deficit was $4,000, 900.
On the face of it this might seem to
show better ,sansgg sggenscat in England;
but guch conclusion would ignore
the more difficult problems Of the
American postal service, including our
vast distances through thinly settled
country, as compared with the short
mail routes in populous Britain. The

American parcels post to show that it
would not bankrupt our government

PHOTOGRAPHY BY WIRE.

Professor Korn of Munich, who has
been working on telegraphic photog-
raphy for several years. has at last
succeeded in sending a series Of pic
lures, including one Of the German
crown prince. over telegraphic
instrument. distance of 1875 miles.
The time required was twelve minutes,
but this. it Is believed, can be cut to
two minutes. The most wonderful
thing about the achievement Is that
the reproduced photograph is not the
blurred and smudgy thing which Korn
secured three or four years ago when
he began his experiments. but 1t is
perfect picture. as readily recognizable
as the original photograph from which
the operator worked. One or two
mechanical difficulties are to be con-
quered and the world may then see
the transmission of photograph from
Paris or Berlin or London to New
York or Tacoma with the same seeed
as newspaper STORY is telegraphed.
The sending of an image over the
electric wire has, of course, been one
Of the long dreams of science. Many
experimentors have been working on
the problem, but the Munich scientist
Is the first to prove commercially sue
cessful. Professor Korhs startling
triumph is due to the extraordinary
qualities Of the metal selenium, which
Is able to transmit light waves into
variations Of an electric current. Just
as the diaphragm of a telephone
causes the mechanical vibrations Of |
sound to be reproduced in correspond
ing electric vibrations, so the action |
of varying light upon plate of Sc
lenium, through which an electric cur
rent Is passing, causes that current to
vary in exact accordance with the
graduations of light on the photograp-
ic film
