soUrH AMERICAN RAILWAYS.
They Run East and West Instead Of
North and South.

Although to the North American
opponents of that project there has
seemed a discouraging lack OF inter-
est in the Pan-American railroad
men, there has really been no cessa-
tion Of the activity of the latter in
pushing development in their more
immediate spheres.
let us build the lines the country
needs they say, and don't ask us
10 go out of our way to further a
scheme which, however practicable
from an engineering point OF view.
would not pay us dividends in this
century. and possibly not in the
next.
We cOncede that we might benefit
indirectly through the increased sta
hility of government that would fol-
low the building of an intercontinen-
tai line, but that benefit is too remote
to interest us at a time when we
have ample opportunity for expendinf
all our available funds in the con-
struction Of lines that viii yield re-
turns from the day they are opened"
So ii happens that while there has
never been so much activity in raft
way construction IN South America
as at the present moment, almost
without exception the new lines are
the parallels rather Than

rather than north and south.-Re-

blame Democracy is not concerns d.
seeing that the fight is kkely to hand
New York safely within the Demo

William Barnes, Jr., the Republican
Boss at Albany. declares positively
that New York is Democratic al the
way from $4,000 to 100000. This is
good news from the enemy. anu
Democracy isn't caring the least little
bit that Mr. Barnes lays the condition
at the door of Gov. Hughes. and de.
riares that the conduct of the gov.
ernor is sinister" in the extreme.
Naturally, the Democrats would
like TO win over so good man as
Gov. Hughes. and it would not b. in
the least surprising to find him and
Mr.. Roosevelt too. after few more
years of Republican misrule. coming
bodily over 10 Democraey's tent.
But whether We get the governor. or
the president. or both the Democrats
are pretty well satisfied with the
havoc these two men have wrought
among Republicans
With Governor Hughes giving
Democracy New York. because h
couldn't stand for Republican mean
ness, the Democrats feel tolerably

what reversed in the way OF tailored
costumes, two coats being frequently
used with one skirt instead OF vice
versa, as formerly. The pretty coat,
arranged for a pongee skirt for warm
weather, is very, very plain. The
fronts are curved into the figure slight
ly and meet In single breasted fashion.
There are darts from the bust line, and
Just below the waist these switch of
very suddenly to a distance halfway
between the fastening of the coat and
the arm seams. Here the stitching
stops and there is deep slash, trim
med on either side with large buttons
covered with pongee silk. The buttons
used for adjusting the model are
made Of the same material, but much
smaller In size.
The sleeves are long and close fitting,
showing very novel cuffs. These are
turned back in regular style, but sup
piled with tiny pin money pockets
with little laps secured with silk COW
cred buttons. Pockets seem to be a
much favored establishment for tai
