COURAGE AND CHIvALRY.

The labors of number of food specialists
were concluded at Washington the other day.
Much additional work has been done by the gov
ernment since the Packingtown scandals ex-
posed, and since the passage of the pure food law
by congress. Though in some ways looked upon
by foreign critics as sort of unconventional and
crude individual the American possesses two of
the finest qualities of manhood under any possible
definition of the term-qualites that would be ad-
mitted by any foreign critic to be of pre-eminent
importance.
They are courage and chvalry and strangely
enough both have been recently noticeably brought
to the fore. Some persons might believe it was
dangerous to probe deeply and make thorough
investigation of the charges against the conduct of
the meat packing establishments, because of the
injurious effect such an inquiry might have on the
packers of meat and other foods.
The courageous spirit of the American people,
however, forced the government to find out the
truth even though every one of opinion that
the investigation would not lead to exoneration.
1t was realized that there might be decrease in
the demand for such products and few timid ones
declared it was necessary to put up with such evils
as is done in other countries. The courageous ma
jority declared that any temporary losses would
be made up by the greater confidence reforms in
management would bring
Already the wisdom of this majority has been
proven for our trade has increased greatly in the
departments where changes were made. An idea

scheme of justice will be this nations and it will
serve to turn many of the other countries, western
as well as eastern, from the erroneous belief that
we are a nation simply after dollars. The whole
history Of dealings with foreign countries has
been on plane almost altruistic.

street and from there proceed as at pres

passing over the viaduct. may proceed

OTHER ADVANTAGES.
The plans were prepared under the di.
rection of n. III. Bronsdon, chief engineer
OF the Rhode Island company. Vice Presi-
dent Buckland and General Counsel N,
w. Smith OF the company submitted with
the plan a description of It's salient fea-
lures, including the following statement
as to points in its favor:
1.-THE city apparently not being prepared
at this time TO make the large expendi-
ture necessary for an easy-grade high
way. the Rhode Island company. feeling
that from an operating standpoint a pri-
vate right of way has some advantages
over a public highway, has made a study
OF the situation, and submits this plan OF
a viaduct which II will be willing to con-
struct for its own use and the patrons
whom IL serves.
among the advantages OF the viaduct
route proposed are the following:
1T takes cars from point In the centre
OF the city convenient for passengers and
removed from any crowded thoroughfare.
and terminates at n point where the
greatest number OF people will be ac-
commodated.
Coming out at Prospect street near
the top OF the hill, there will be no dou-
bling back of tho cars, and practically
all who have been accommodated by tho
counterweight system on College street
will be accommodated equally as well. IL
not better, by the viaduct plan.
"The viaduct disturbs the surface of
no existing highways.
'It provides for the least possible inter
ference with private property.
"Blockades in the streets and the re-
sulting delay of traffic will be avoided.
SAFE AND SATISFACTORY.
'"The proposed development of Ex-
change place as transfer point lends it.
self admirably to this plan.
1.-The grade which the viaduct makes
possible can be operated with greater
safety and more satisfactorily than any
like grade in tunnel or a highway
The proposed viaduct will be less costly
than a tunnel to serve the same purpose.
and Is from operating and engineering
standpoints In every way superior.
THE plan submitted shows no stop
ping points on the route. as the company
believes that the greatest number OF pas
sengors would prefer that the trip be
made without stop, but 1t would, OF
course, be possible to provide such stop
ping places at Benefit street and other
points on the line If the city deems such
a plan desirable.
''The company. after careful considera-
ton. has presented the plan which from
its standpoint is the best, and would be
willing at its own cost to construct such
nf
made TO this plan. as they could TO any
which might be devised. and IL the city
does not favorably consider the COM
pany's proposition the company Will be
glad to occupy any highway which the
city may furnish"

SUNDAY BASEBALL VETO

When Mayor Mcclellan vetoes a bill
providing for amateur baseball on Sun
day he declares that he fears men who
are paid for playing the game could be
classed as amateurs. 1t is not possible
that he is ignorant of the fact that such
men do play on Sundays now and have
always done so on Sunday. 1t Is not
possible that he has no conception of how
and why. Backmail is paid to the repre-
sentatives OF those higher up" for the
privilege of playing Sunday games and
charging an admission fee II the man
ayers of the Sunday games pay. they
play: IL they don't, they are arrested.
II II not possible hat Mayor Mcclellan
has not suspected that " the bill which
he vetoed had become n law that particu-
lar form of blackmail by those higher
up would have been put out of commits
sion. In the one case games would have
gone on: the blackmail would have
stopped. In the other the games will go
on: so will the blackmail. The Tammany

TRADE REPORT OPTIMISTIC.

The trade reports of the week just closing are
OF the most optimistic nature. sudden coming
of warm weather and its duration for more than
one day drove people everywhere to buying The
crops will be late, but that there will be any
material or dangerous shortage one now fears.
Iron production and consumption is at record
rate, and finished products are all active
The change in the weather came very timely,
for large part of the summer holiday trade was
saved, and in New England very busy time in re-
tail trade is looked for the coming week. In Phila-
delphia the wool trade is active with prospects of
being better rather than worse. New York traders
have had very busy year far, and the threaten
ed decline of week or ten days ago was not ex-
perience, owing to the increase in the temperature
and the necessity of providing for summer COM
forts.
The weather in the middle west is all that
could be hoped for, and the improvement in crop
conditions there has been most promising Some
early reports of damages TO crops by bugs were
exaggerated There seems. therefore, TO be good
reason for the bright views taken by the farmers
wholesalers retailers and manufacturers The

There was lots of relief expressed in business
and government circles when the announcement
was made that the telegraphers' strike would not
take place How strong a hold modern methods
have on the business men of today was shown by
the fears of the great injury to business that would
result from te-up of the telegraph wires Those
best posted in trade conditions promptly placed be-
fore the government estimate of the evil results
that would surely follow any interruption just at
this time of the telegraph service.
A careful review of these possible evil results
would soon convince the ordinary citizen that both
the employees and the telegraph company are en-
titled to thanks for the reasonable view taken of
the situation, and the concessions upon both sides

MAYOR FAGAN SCORES.

Gov Stokes has demanded the resignation OF
Col Dickinson, secretary of state of New Jersey,
and thus, Mayor Pagan, who believes in private
morality as we'll as in doing right in public life,
again scores COL Dickinson is the head boss in
New Jersey politics, and notwithstanding the pro-
test of the mayor of Jersey City, he was reappoint
ed secretary Of state
Gov Stokes obtained promise from Dickn-
son that unless the charge made against him was
proven false he would resign. At the time the pro-
test was made by Mayor Pagan against Col. Dick
inson longer continuing in an office where per-
son liable to indictment should not be, there was
general outcry by the partys organs to the effect
that the mayor had at last made fatal blunder. 1t
did not bother the mayor, who has all his political
life fought the opportunists, what the ring organs
said and when Col Dickinson began suit for libel
the mayor began getting testimony. Soon the
mayors political funeral was within reaching dis
tance. Quite recently Col. Dickinson discontinued
the libel suit, alleging political and other sham
reasons for not pressing the against the mayor
Gov. Stokes is not satisfied with the excuses
given. He believes that "the public official who
witbdraws his defense against charges that affect
mans dearest possession his reputation cannot re-
tain the confidence of the people" So very perth
ncntly does he request the immediate resignation
of the secretary of state.
The whole proceeding brings out the coarse
ness and callousness Of political bosses This one
happens to hold office and to have fearless oppo-
nent, so this boss must respect the ordinary rules
Of decency in private life. Few in public office
would make the attack on member of their own
political party and especially so powerful boss as
Col. Dickinson, that Mayor Pagan made. No one
can doubt the mayors sincerity. He believes that
public officials duty is to observe the laws both
OF public and private morality Undoubtedly it
was unpleasant to attack the private character of
the secretary of state but the testimony produced
shows that the attack was we'll founded and neees-
sary.
There should be in no state, either in
public office doing duty as political leader, any
man who is so careless of the effect of bad example
as to persist in an improper course of life and try
to brazen it out
Gov. Stokes will undoubtedly see that cleaner
the present incumbent is unless he is woefuly be-
lied The governors determination must win him
the approval of decent men and women in all Sec
tions of the country.
