DENOUNCED BOON TO MANKIND
Seventeenth Century Wiseacres Saw
No Good in Spectaces.

A certain English vicar made him
self notorious by the vigor with which
IN the seventeenth century. he in
weighed against the use of the newly
invented optic glasses, since they per.
verted vision and made all things an.
pear in an unnatural and therefore q
false light. Microscopes and tele-
scopes, with their array of lenses. he
declared to be impostors, since a man
could not see so well with two pairs
of spectacles as with one. Some as
serted it to be sinful to assist the eyes
which were adapted by Providence
to the capacity of the individual.

was argued that society at large would
become demoralized by the use OF
spectacles; they would give one man

A PIPE DREAM.

We notice that the Washington cor
respondent of the Richmond Times-Dis-
patch is predicting that the Republicans
of the Ninth Congressional District of
Virginia will have a split next year
when they are called upon to select a
successor to Colonel Slemp in Congress.
The said correspondent mentions the
names Of several good Republicans who
are likely to want the nomination. and
speaks as if they are likely to get into
quarrel over the prize. This is moth
ing more than Democratic pipe dream.
When the time comes the Republicans
of this district will nominate their can
didate and no one who is prominent
enough to aspire to the nomination will
after failure be so unworthy as to prove
recreant to duty, to his party and peo-
pie. The Republicans of the Ninth
have suffered too much already from
Democratic representation in Congress
to let personal ambitions or preferences
swerve them from the line of duty.
A good, true man, from the many
good Republicans in the district, will be
nominated, and he will be elected by
the usual majority.
The Republicans of the Ninth Dis
trict will stand together, and they will
tolerate no man as a candidate whose
loyalty to party is not stronger than his
personal ambition.

NO STRIKING CLOCKS FOR HIM.

morning after Christmas it worked all

Our Transportation Problem
Washington Herald.)

1t is useless to call the railroads to
account for failure to meet such extra
ordinary conditions as these, which, as
Mr.. Brown says, ''came as a surprise
to the farmer, the merchant, the manu-
facturer and the railroads. Abuses
have been found in the use and distribu-
ton of cars, it is true, which are in
process of remedy, but the real cause
OF car shortage is found in the rapid ex-
pansion of industrial and commercial
enterprise, an expansion, the extent of
which has not been foreseen by any
body. What the railroads need most of
all just now is opportunity to cope with
the transportation problem on a gener-
Gus scale, and in accordance with the
new conditions imposed by recent legis-
lation, and this opportunity we have no
doubt the people will be glad to have
them accept without fear of public
menace if their policy in future con-
forms to the promises held out by Mr..
Brown and other fair-minded railroad
officers.

1t is a matter of surprise that the
jamestown Exposition should become
financially embarrassed just after it has
been opened. The state of unprepar-
edness at the time of the opening, and
which still continues in measure, has
wrought considerable injury to its sue
cess. Now comes the report that
stockholders are delinquent in payment
on shares to the amount of $3.50. 900.

The Democrats are greatly disap-
pointed at the sudden termination of
the Foraker-Taft contest in Ohio.
Strange to say the Democratic press
was indulging hope that the two great
Ohians would permit their personal am
billions to create a rupture in the party
in that State, but Republicans knew
better. The Republicans of Ohio and
of the entire country will be strongly
united in 1908; but it looks as if the
Democrats will be split into numerous
and hopeless factions.
