The Press is in favor of govern
mcnt control of railroads and
banks. National legislation which
will put u stop to the long list of
annual railroad accidents is needed
more than regulation of rates: and
banks should be so controlled by
the government that the latter
could stand good for every cent of
deposits as we'll rs every national
banknote. We think it will come
to either this or postal sayings

 Yes, the time is coming when it will, but it will take years to bring about such d general reform. In my opinion there will yet be split in the democratic party of the south on this question It seems tS me that the dem- ocratic party will take up the ques- tion and the republican party will have to fall into line.

 temperance and gave a stirring ad-
 dress. Mr. Tanning is speaking be-
 fore Connecticut audiences for six
 weeks under the auspices of the Wo-
 mans Christian Temperance union of
 this stateA Asked last evening to give
 some of his views on the work, to the
 Journal and Courier MT. Tanning said:
 'I am much encouraged in my work in
 New Haven. Five audiences which I
 have addressed in this city contributed
 SITS for the cause. This temperance
 movement is just sweeping over the
 south. There never was time before
 when the cause was making the pro- gress in this country that 1t is now. Georgia has gone dry; Gov. Glenn of North Carolina is a prohibitionist and when the legislature convenes a pro- hibitive law will be passed. Ben Tlllman says that if North Carolina goes dry South Carolina will follow suit. Tn Alabama the past week the house passed the prohibition law and 1.-the senate will coincide and Gov. Co., ! mer will sign the bill. Gov.

NEARLY MISSED THE CAME
CHAUFFEUR is ARRESTED
Six Enthusiastic Princeton Women, Delayed for Hours,
 Arrive at Three.

A Princeton party narrowly missed seeing the big football game Satur- day, not reaching Yale field until 3 o'clock, just in time to witness the second half of the game. They made the distance between New York and New Haven in about three hours and ten minutes.
 The big black automobile, in which lthe party came, containing six women and a chauffeur, was stopped In Cen tral park, New York, on the way to New Haven, on charge of speeding.
 The women were Mrs. Alfred E.. Finger, her two daughters, and three girl friends. The chauffeur was Jolin Dugan. Alfred F. Finger is a prom inent Kentucky horseman.
 The Fingers are enthusiastic Princeton partisans. When they left the Hotel Aberdeen at g o'clock Satur- day morning, orange and black flags flew from each lamp, from the sides and from the back of the machine The steering wheel was entwined with orange ribbon and little orange tiger crouched in the lap of one of the young women.
 The machine was speeding up the West drive of Central park, opposite 103d street, when Bicycle Policeman Sexton called a halt. He said ht would have to take the chauffeur tC Icourt.
 Don't spoil our days fun, MT. Of ficer What can we do without oul chauffeur? Here, take this chrysan themum, and let us go on to New Ha ven," pleaded one of the girls,
 But the policeman was not to b, Ibribed. Mrs. Finger gave the chauf feur some money to pay the expected fine. When the party had waited out side the Yorkville court an hour tn, women became uneasy. Another hou passed before the case was called. Du gan figured out that he could mak the seventy two miles to New Havei in three hours if there was not to- ; many constables on watch.
 When Magistrate Butts finally heart the case he held the prisoner in S10 bail for special sessions. The prison CT had no bondsman. Mrs Finge went to the telephone to see what sh could do, but learned that the cour would not accept cash bail. An auto mobile concern sent a man over t give security, and 1t looked as if tn women would get away at last.
 It developed, however, that tn chauffeur had no license with him and by.t time he was held in an other $10o bail for trial and the bond had been made out it was 11:5 o'clock. The crowd gave the party rousing cheer as the machine and si very anxious women left the court.
