People don't feel quite as big as they
did, but it is hard to get over the hab-
it Of talking big. So it is not surpris-
ing to hear Representative Bartholdt
of Mississippi talking about a govern
ment bond issue Of $50O,O0O,OOO to
pay for inland waterways. Representa-
tive Bartholdt talks in the good old
hifalutin way of those who rejoice in
spending money in heaps. He says our
children and our children's grandchil-
dren will be much benefited by the in
land waterways, and that therefore it
is a good idea to hand them down a
big mortgage. He adds: It has been
the adage for generations that ma
tional debt is a national blessing, and
1t is a mighty good old saying. 1t is a
very good thing to have every little
tradesman, every laborer, if possible.

measure providing for the bond issue,
and that was one of the things I
talked with the President about. I
cannot repeat his views on the subject,
but may say that have not encoun-

is certainly In line with the Presidents
policies, and believe the administra-
ton will be found in favor of it when
the measure comes to vote.

talk about mortgaging the country

BACK TO THE FARM.

That is good and timely point
made by the Louisville Courier-Jour-
nal when it says that now as never
before are farming lands in the United
States good purchases for long time
investment even by capitalists who de-
sire merely fair interest return and
safety. They are much better invest
ments for the man VINO will live on the
land and by the land. At present it is
easy for the young man of very limit
ed means to begin life as a farmer
with the prospect of soon becoming a
landowner, and not impossible for the
young man without any capital to rise
from tenantship to ownership. The
time is not far distant when the diff
ficulties of acquiring farm lands will
be greatly increased, and the man who
must make a start in life will be driv-

The Judge and the King.
(Hartford Post.)

(6aFttoru POST.
Former Judge Of Probate Livingston
w. Cleave:snd, of New Haven, met
King Edward while on his recent visit
in England, and it was meeting of
two good fellows" We note, however,
with twinge of pain, that the meet
ing took place on the grand stand at
the Newmarket horse races.
That the king attended the races, is
not matter of special surprise--he's
a sport of the first water, and always
was But the presence of @ strain Of
sporting blood In the Puritanical veins
OF Judge Cleaveland had never been
suspected. The sporting events Of his
own city and State have never seemed
to hold any attraction for him, and his
tastes ard inclinations have always
been along the line Of elevating and
chastering endeavor, far removed from
the follies and vanities that give 10y
and exaltation to such dead game
sports as King Edward
We can readily account for the
Judges presence at the horse races on
the supposition that he went there to
see the king, but regret that we are
unable by reason of the kings too well
known sporting propensity, to give HIS
majesty the benefit of the same char,
table assumption, that he went to the
races to see Judge Cleaveland.

SOME HUMAN NA TURE.

Human nature being human nature,
there is an attempt to belittIe the work
of the financiers who stood between
this country and crushing disaster on
October oath and since This attempt
finds expression in such utterances as
this: What Rockefeller and Morgan
have done to stay the panic, they have
done not from motives of philanthropy,
but of servation-having more
at stake than many thousands of the
small depositors in banks and trust
companies and people engaged in mer-
camille and manufacturing lines.
OF course the big fnanciers have a
vital interest in, preserving credit and
encouraging prosperity, and it may be
that they are quite as selfish as they
are patriotic But admitting that, it
can be said that their selfshness is
enlightened, which 70 more than can
be said Of much of the selfishness that
has been shown in this pinching time
Moreover, the little folks who have
been saved from destruction while the
big folks have been saving themselves
can we'll afford to rejoice that things
were so arranged that they could be
in such powerful company. tt NAV be
that men of such great ability as the
big finaneiers are of bigger size in phi
lanthropy and patriotism than the
carpers think. But be this as 1t may,
they are entitled to the thanks of
even those who are SO selfish that they
cannot believe in unselfshness in
others.

take mild interest in Baltimore's ex-

Six years ago street in Baltimore was
divided into strips, running from curb

were invited to put down samples of
their work for comparison. The pave
ments were asphalt, vitrif1ed brick, as

oughly dried and treated with creosote
and rosin. After six years usage, in
which all parts of this composite pave
ments were used alike, it was found
that the vitrifled brick pavements

MTSDTRECTED MERCY.

An association of Philadelphia cler-
gymen has enacted resolution con-
demning the practice OF the League
Island navy yard in permitting the en-
listed men to indulge in sports on
Sunday. 1t makes very little difference
what the particular offense is which
has led these clergymen to make the
protest they have made. Their action
turns upon the alleged infringement of
the Sunday observance laws Of the
State of Pennsylvania. They want a
closed Sunday in the navy yard.
Without doubling the sincerity of
these gentlemen it is impossible to be-
lieve that they realize the serious eff
feet of their demand should it be re-
spected by the navy department. Nor
can they be aware that religious SER
vices are held on Sunday in all yards
and on all ships and that the freedom
under definite regulations which is
given the men in the afternoon springs
from experience with their needs and
not from irreverence. Life on ship
board is not such as to make the or
binary Sunday restrictions possible and
enlistments in the navy enthusiastic.
The effect Of the mistaken move
ment to forbid the army canteen at all
posts should not be lost upon those
who would bring the sailors under like
treatment. If we are to have an army
and navy we must put up with the
human demands which go with them

The Blue Book on the railroads of
the United Kingdom during the year
1906, which has just been published,
discloses the interesting fact that the
increase in the authorized capital Of
British railroad companies during the
past year was the lowest on record
being two and half millions sterling.
The previous minimum was 1900, 900
pounds in 1885. The total capital in
vested in British railroads at the end
Of last year was 1,2s6,sOO, 900 pounds.
Probably this comparatively slight in
crease in capital may be accounted
for by the adverse condition Of the
money market, probably also by the
natural disinclination of railroad di-
rectors to spend capital on new works
in such times.
