Where Towns Grow.

Apropos of the mushroom growth of
new towns on the western frontier, a
locomotive engineer relates the follow
ing to the Minneapolis Journal:
lone day was driving my engine
across the prairie when suddenly con-
siderable town loomed up ahead where
nothing had showed up the day before.
"sWhat town is this?' says l to my
fireman.
BLAMED if 1 know said Bill. III
wasn't here when we went over the
road yesterday
"Well, l slowed down, and directly
we pulled into the station, where ovel
500 people were waiting on the platform
to see the first train come in.
1.-The conductor came along up front
and says he to me:
"'Jim, first we know we'll be run
ming by some important place. Ge
this town down on your list and I'll pu
brakeman out on the rear platform tt
watch out for towns that spring VI
after the train gets by. >"

Senator Burton, the deposed senator
from Kansas, who has just finished a
term of six months in penitentiary,
appears not to have profted from the
time for sober thought and reflection
his confinement afforded. He is going
on the lecture platform, now, will run"
a newspaper, and threatens to do other
things by which he can reach the ear of
the masses" Burton is just burning
up to explain. He was found guilty of
violating the law which prohibits mem
bers of congress from practicing before
the Experimentation accepting money
or pay of any kind for exercising their
influence in departmental matters on
behalf of private interests. Burton
says he was guilty of nothing; that he
violated no law. A man as unconscion-
able as he Is not honest and has not the
capacity for learning that the position
of representative of the people requires.

Men chosen to act as jurors in a
murder trial these days should carry
life insurance and be required to pass
a physical examination as exacting as
that required of recruits for the stand
ing army in time OF PEACE. If he emit
ers the jury box early in life chances
are about equal that he will live to give
verdict. The insurance will provide
for the widow, so the government will
not be expected to grant pension for
the time deceased spent in the cause of
justice.

A murderer in London was given
trial, found guilty, and in less than
three months from the commission of
his crime he will have expiated the Of
fence upon the gallows. Contrast the
case in England with similar cases in
America. Tacoma, Spokane and New
York courts have just finished murder
trials in which months were consumed
in hearing testimony. The New York
case was made famous by the length of
hypothetical question put to an ex-
pert witness by the prosecution, and in
the Spokane case after seven weeks of
hearing the testimony, the defense
moved to direct verdict, on the ground
that two of the jurors were physically
exhausted, Evidently the American
courts are made for the lawyers and
the English courts for justice.

RAILWAYS AND THE PUBLIC.


In the discussion of the controversy
now on in nearly all the state legisla-
lures, between the railroads and the
public interests, some learned writer's
for the press have undertaken to prove
that the railroads are the foundation on
which the building up of the country
has been carried on and our Industrial
progress has been made. Some mighty
good arguments can be advanced along
that line, but in arriving at an opinion
would it not be we'll to keep in mind
that if it were not for the people there
would be no railroads, while on the
other hand the people without the rail-
roads could use waterways apd other
before, which would be much more i'm
proved and more servieeable at this
time had the railway never come. This
is not an argument that we should go
back to the old means of travel, but it
is pointed out to show that the railroads
and the people are dependent upon each
other, and that alone neither would be
enjoying the prosperity that is theirs
today.
Because of the interdependence be-
tween the people and the railroads there
should be the best of feeling between
them. Interests are too much entwined
for one to be at war with the other.
This paper Is not one to side in with
the popular clamor against the railroads,
because the editor feels that his early
education in financing big transporta-
ton concerns, securing right-of-way,
fighting the Boxers" in the courts,
operating trains and naming reasonable
compensation for officers, superintend-
ents, station agents and their employees,
trainmen, section hands and bridge
builders was too limited to promise the
success that man of means would ex
pect in candidate looking for the pc
sition.
Most of this agitation against thu
railways has come from the workings
of the stock exchange and the par
companies have taken in the land-grab
bing in the west. The public has tiret
in paying tariff on values inflated by tn
gamblers in Wall street, and the lootin,
of the public domain by corporation
never has been, and never will be, tolerat
ed by the public With the eradication o
these two evils the contention betwee
the railways and the public that is be
coming more pronounced every da
! will come to close.

A rail-splitter from Kentucky and a
friend one time visited an auction place
in New Orleans and witnessed for their
first time the sale of negroes for slaves.
After awhile the friend turned to go,
but the rail-splitter was interested, and
as he started to leave, after some en-
treaty, clenched his fists and said, IF
ever I get chance to hit that thing
I'll hit it, and I'll hit it hard" Some
day this country will raise up Lincoln
who will hang some of the Ruefs,
Schmitzs, and other grafters in high
places whose works are now undermin-
ing the foundation Of the republic.

INVEST IN THE ROAD.

our mountain road? Rather, how much
stock are you going to take?-what is

and how and to what extent are you
going to show your appreciation for the
efforts and labor put forth by the Idaho
county men in the legislature the past
winter, by which they secured from the
state Sc, 900 to be expended on the road
if the county and the people will con-
tribute a like amount? This is the
question that every man in Elk City,
Dixie, Orogrande, Buffalo Hump, New
some, Sites, Clearwater, Harpster and
