How to Deal with Anarchy.

That the policy of severe punishment OF
avowed anarchists and the making of
martyrs of them will only feed the men
tai alteration which results in anarchy
is the position taken by Walter p. Nc
CURE in a thoughtful article for the June
Van Norden's Magazine. He asks if it
is not possible for the government to as
sumo a sympathetic attitude" toward this
unfortunate class and insists hat the
progress made by the anarchists is due
largely to the neglect of the problems Of
the poor by those who nave intelligence
and time enough to study them" He pro-
poses that men be sent among the poor to
preach that "whcre law ends tyranny be-
gins and that the theories of the anarch-
list are self-contradictory. Besides, much
of the anarchist susceptibility is attribut-
ed to the brutal methods OF the city police
in handling the poor people of the Sums.

PLANS u. S. ARMY OF $780, 600.
War Department Would Amalea-
mate the Regulars and Militia.

q - 1tSS uldIo anu N4lllL1a,
The War Department has perfected
q plan for the virtual amalgamation Of
10000 men, comprising all the regular
n national guard troops in the Uaited
States, into an army ready to answer
the call OF II President. Assistant
Secretary of War Oliver has given out
this information
The Wan Department plan means
nothing more nor less than that the
ONE this country gets into trouble
the so-called national guard %organiza-
lions will cease to exist as such and
Immediately become units of the regular
army absolutely under the control of
the President and the Secretary of War.
This scheme" said Mr.. Oliver, sis
the first move in the plan to make this
country Il military power. Before this
we have had no authority over the
State troops, better known, perhaps, as
militia and national guard orgauiza-
tiOns. What we propose to do is to or
ganiZe these State troops and all the
regular forces into eight army corps,
and the New England States. New York
and other States in the military divi-
sion known as the Department of the
East will constitute the first army
corps. AS at present planned the War
Department will be able 10 put into the
field almost Immediately an army of
100000 men. Par will be perfectly
trained n the efficiency of the rest
will be so increased that they will form
a smooth working force"

BRYAN ON THE PLATFORM.
Calls It "Silent Reputation of
RooseveItian Principles"

William j. Bryan reviews the Rpnub-
I1can platform in his paper, the Com
moner. He d~cnounccs the document as
"a silent reputation of almost every
~Rooseveltfan principIc.' He scores the
planks on currency, the trusts and the
negro problem, calling the lnst-namcd
section tn" "QuHdronniaI quota of
taffy.' President Roosevelt is praised
and his policy commended in contrast
with the aims of the party as expressed
In the platform. On this point Mr..
Bryan says:
The highest aspirations Of the Ameri-
can people have found a voice. CA re-
Election is here implied on previous Re
publican Presidents who have failed to
furnish a voice for the highest aspira-
tons of the American people.") Their
most exalted servant represents the best
aims and worthiest purposes of all his
countrymen. American manhood has been
lifted to a noble sense of duty and obi
CATION"
But the President must not feel that he
is the only Republican deserving of praise.
The recent Congresses, according to the
platform, have been full of patriots and
the Republican legislators have been keep
ing step in the forward march to better
government What does the President
think of being bracketed with Republican
Senators and members Of Congress in this
ndiScriminate praise!

Thu Great Northern has placed its or.
der for 10000 tons Of steel rails for
which it was in the market some time
ago. 1t amounts, in all, to about 420
miles of track.
Western transcontinental roads threat
en- to abandon oriental business rather
than publish rates showing proportion
paid by inland shippers as ordered by in
terstate commission.
Arrangements have been made with j.
P. Morgan & Co.. to meet the interest
charges on the Erie bono issues, so that
the entire earnings of the oad may be
devoted to the completion of improvements
which will increase it's earning power.
The Pennsylvania railroad continues to
reduce its working force, and it is said
that by May l the number will have
reached $4,000. 1t is understood that
this step is in preparation for a reduc-
ton in wages after the first of next
month. The cause of the last lay-off was
the dissatisfaction felt by old employees,
who had been working N half time since
last fall. These have been put on full
time and the difference made up by dis
charging newer hands.
Of the 600, 900 miles of railway in the
world only about 10 per cent are found
in strictly tropical territory, and no more
tha 10 per cent within what would be
termed tropical and sub-tropical areas.
Tracks abound in the temperate zone.
The Public Service Commission of New
York City issued an order requiring the
street car companies to provide sufficient
cars and the right conditions for seating
all of their passengers. An exception is
made during rush hours. The minimum
number of cars to pass on busy streets in
each fifteen minutes. it is thought, will
have to be twenty-five.
That the proposed general freight rate
advance by the eastern railroads, effective
Oct. /, is in reality above the announced
10 Der cent is the. contention of traffic
managers of large industries. Since the
roads have announced the advance officials
of manufacturing plants have traced the
effect on their particular lines of industry.
They find that in some cases the increase
is as high as Is per cent.

INSANE CLERGYMAN SHOT.
Pastor Resists Neighbors Who Seek
to Capture Him.

At STOPPER, Mo-, the Rev. Valentine
Strauss became violently insane and
was slain during an attempt to capture
him. His wife led the attacking party.
The clergyman became violent and
drove his family from the parsonage.
He was heavily armed and Mrs. Strauss
feared he would do himself bodily
harm. She alarmed the village and or
ganized a party to capture her husband.
The pastor opened fire on the posse
and it was returned in order to brighten
him. One of the shots went wild and
killed the clergyman. The parsonage
was a veritable fortress.
