UNIQUE IN SEVERAL WAYS.

According to the Boston Transcript
Alabama is the first state in the union
alphabetically. She is unique in an
other particular. She has the most
venerable senatorial delegation that
is, has been or probably ever again will
be from a single state. In another
respect she stands apart from her sis
tiers. Should either or both find the
terms upon which they have entered
outlasting their spans of life, their heirs
have been appointed, not by them but
by the people whom they represent
These are Ex-Governor Johnston and
eN-Representative Bankhead. Should
life and strength hold, however, Sena-
tor Morgan and Pettus will be one over
80 and the other close upon it when
they come to the ends of their official
service. OF course, this statement
would have to be modified should they
again be selected by the state.

Railroad President Predicts Panic

Washington, March ia. b. Stick
ney of ST. Paul, president of the Great
Western, last night in an interview
discussing the railroad situation, said:
'The people arenow laying the founda-
ton firm and strong for tremendous
panic"
Stickney said he does not believe the
crisis will be reached within the next
two years, but he took the position that
it will certainly come, and will be even
more disastrous than the panic of 1898.
lie declared that if the present railroad
agitation is kept up all railways are
threatened with bankruptcy, and that in
1908 hundreds Of thousands of men will
be thrown out Of employment. The
great unrest in the financial world,
President Stickney said, is not due to
the policy of President Roosevelt, but is
brought about by "hostile legislation by
state Legislatures" Stickney contended
that the only solution of the railroad
problem is to grant all the power to
regulate the roads to the federal gov
eminent. He urged the establishment
of department of Interstate COM
merce, its head to be members of the
cabinet" and he asserted that the pre-
sent interstate commerce commission is
a failure, because the power to act is
placed in the hands of too many men.
He said he believed far better results
could be secured if the entire matter
were placed in charge of cabinet officer
with power to enforce the laws now on
the statute books.

KING OF THE FAKIRS.

John Alexander Dowie is no more. He
died as he had lived, singing psalms,
preaching sermons, quoting scripture
and denouncing his enemies. The end
was not without it's pathos, for it was
the passing of one of the most remark
able men of any age or time.
1t is not given to the finite mind to
know just how much Of sincerity and
how much of the mountebank formed
this man. With a magnificent physique,
massive brain, the face of patriarch,
unlimited courge, superb magnetism and
a flow of language replete with force
fulness and invective he was one of the
first religious teachers and leaders of
the world.
Some Of his pretensions must have APP
peared to him absurd. A man of his
mental acumen must have known that he
was not Elijah: Self-hypnotism is pos
sible, self-deceit is likely, but we hardly
did his followers.
There is nothing in all the world in
which people are so easily misled as in
religion. Those who are the most cock
sure are likely to be the easiest dupes.
All over the world people made sport of
Dowie while chasing phantoms of far
greater magnitude. There are those
who pass Judgment on him and his
methods who are themselves victims of
far greater deceit. Dowie was the only
religious leader who ever preached and
practiced constructive religion. He
not only preached for the next world,
but he built in this. He was the first
and only leader to build model town,
and the world would be immeasurably
improved if all religious zeal was
directed to similar ends.
A man of such marked individuality
could not have successor, and it is
likely that his cult will die with him.
4 His dream of Zion will no doubt pass
away. There was but one Dowie and it
4 may be centuries before the world will
look upon his like again.
Dowie was essentially a fighter. He
had the courage of lion. He was a
4 man of marvellous power, compared to
which that of his successor is puny and
insane. With disease his forces weak
ened and mind and bodyefailed together.
Those who repudiated his leadership
were no doubt justified after the dis
closures, but with Dowie out Zion was
and IS wreck. Des Moines Chronicle.

The gavel used by the presiding Off
Ger Of the senate has no handle like
that used by the speaker of the house.
1t is an ivory continuance, modestly
ornamented, of cylindrical shape and
about four inches long. In welding it
the vice president has to hold the gavel
in his hand as if it we're small ham
mer without handle. How the Gus
tom originated of providing the vice
president with handless gavel is not
known, though the oldest senate at
tache can not remember when it was
otherwise, just as the oldest senate at
tach7 can not remember when the gold
snuff box that occupies it's ancient
niche at the right of the vice presi-
dents desk was not dutifully filled
every morning., although no statesman
now patronizes that once-popular box
for a gentle sneeze.

The significant rumor is being circu-
lated in Cincinnati that Senator Foraker
has made $4,000 contract with litho-
graphing house there for the immediate
printing of thousands of pictures and
we'll known cartoons of himself. What
the Ohioan intends to do with these
pictures is not definitely known, and
there are many republican statesman
who would like to find out. His cam
paign for reelection to the senate
comes on next year, but it is not
known that he apprehends severe
struggle over that, so that it is more
than suspected that General Foraker
still has his eye on position more ex-
allied than that which he has just va
Gated.

The doctrine which is being preached
and promulgated in some of the courts
that man who loses his temper be-
comes temporarily insane and is not re-
sponsible in law for his acts is doctrine
that is about as mischievous and dan
gerous as could we'll be imagined. 1t is
doctrine that destroys all incentive to
self control and rather encourages men
to give way to passion, to brutal appe-
lite and to every sinful desire. Rich

A shy Notion.

The talk Of Governor Dawson,
iobbing up with the alleged insur-
gent faction that is trying to organ
lie the state legislature in order to
force Senator Elkins into the legis-
lature contests and pave an opening
for Dawson senatorial prospects may
be sprinkled all over with salt.
Where would Governor Dawson stanu
in the eyes of his supporters ana
constituents If he thus virtually re-
pudiated his well known policies. de-
serted his work for good sensible
substantial beneficial and reformed
administration OF the states affairs
for the golden glitter of a United
States senatorship? Instead of paw
ing way forward to the United
States senate he would be paving a
way down and out.
Dawson's administration abs been
remarkably successful and benefic-
ial one for the state. He is in favor
Of men organizing the state legisla-
ture who win uphold and support
his administration and assist him in
carrying out his plans and policies
to the end of his term, This idea
of proposed treachery on his part to
club Senator Elkins to his rescue
when Senator Elkins has always
stood close to Dawson and Endorsed,
approved and upheld his policies is
mere prittle prattle. The state is
not goin gto be turned over to those
who fought against the wise policies
of reform and improvement carried
ont by Governor Dawson.

State Senator George G. Cole, Of
this senatorial district, two years
ago, introduced and advocated In
the state legislature a measure to
prohibit the importation of this val
liable natural resourse from the
state, Aconsiderable number of
that body most heartily, sincerely
and wisely supported Senator Cole
in his effort to protect this great in
terest of our own citizens.
But there were enough,t he Tele-
gram regrets to recall, opposed to
the bill to send it to the pigeon hole
where 1t slumbered in the dust OF
neglect and indifference to the pub
lie interest of the great State of
West Virginia.

those who so bitterly fought the
passage of Senator Coles measure

conspiracy between these state

people of our state.
The people felt embittered towards
these professed representatives Of

disgust with that manner Of states
manship This feeling has never
died hut today is stimulated by the
sense that such collision on the
part of legislators with a merciless
corporation is not destined to ad-
vance the interests of the state or to
aid in its material development. \
Senator Cole foresaw the dreadful
sapping of the veins Of our indus
tries and the fearful theft Of one of
the great products, upon which the
future Of our Industrial and COM
mercial development largely de-
ponds. 1t was mainly upon sena-
tor Coles own valitfon that the pro-
hibitory gas bill was introduced al
though the matter had been dis
cussed and urged in public meetings
and conferences as well as by the
press. It was sad blow to not only
Senator Cole but also to the many
whose hope was to behold in the no
distatn future manufacturing plants
studding the hills and valleys OF our
state.
