orously early in the morning, and by
noon many of tha precincts had more
than half of the vote polled. In some
precincts, the vote was all in before
the time for the POLLS to close. The

apparently experienced little trouble
in inducing men to 80 to the polls.

No Disorder and no D;unkeness--

Story.

1t was an eventful night. Quiet in
many respects and noisy in others.
There ives no disorder, there was no
drunkenness, there were no fights But
there was plenty of warm arguments,
plenty of fine bets, a neap OF cheer
ing and whole lots of street parading
1t was enough to make any Amer

through the streets and heard the
cheering for the respective candidates
as their photos we're thrown upon
the canvass. Yesterday it was friend

feated submit humbly to the will of
the majorities and the war is en-

tie will have been forgotten.
The streets were a mass of surging
humanity between the hours Of and
II o'clock last night. The moving
pictures and the election returns
which were flashed on mammoth
e9reen in front of the National bank
building proved very popular fea-
ture. The sidewalks were blockaded,
the street cars could hardly wend
their way through the mass.
The cheering Of the crowd could be
heard in all parts Of the city and

ran at high stage. It was sur

Knew Him Too We'll,

The late President Chester A. Arthur, although he was man of warm friendships, had Il high sense of per sonal dignity that would brook no un due fnmiliaritics. A lifelong friend of MT. Arthur. who had accompanied him on one of his hunting trips, was telling an acquaintance some of the incidents of the hunt.
 q know it's the general impression" he said, that Mir. Arthur is Il cold, self centered sort of man, but it isn't true He is one of the most genial and com panonable of men when you become well acquainted With him thought already knew him pretty well, but l came to understand him better while on that trip than ever before"
 q suppose you know him well enough now to call him by his first name" ventured the other.
 "On the contrary" was the rejoinder. "I know him well enough not to call him by his first name "-Youths Com palion.

Qesert Plants.

Plants of the desert as a rule. pos. sess few leaves, the cactus. for in stance. being mostly spines. There is q very good reason for the lack of leaves i'll desert plants. The object is to check the transferation of moisture by offerA" as small d surface as pos sible to the dry air. For the same req son the roots of desert plants usually run deep into the soil so that they can suck up all the available moisture. In some instances the leaves assume vertical position and thus avoid the direct rays of the burning desert sun. On the other hand, the leaves of trees in very wet countries are provided with points such as the maple-from which the rain drops off. Were the leaves fatter the rain would collect and make them rot.

PRESIDENT ON THE EMPLOYERS LIABILITY.

In his message sent to congress yes terday President Roosevelt says: An employers liability act has been en- acted which, it $ true comes short of what ought to have been done but which soes not represent real ad- vance. Apparently there is good groa1a to hope that there will be fur ther legislation providing for further compensating all employees who suffer injury while engaged in the public service"
 The principle of the employers lia' bility bill is not a new one. It is in force in twenty-two foreign countries and states. The industries governed by the liability laws are manufactur ing, mining, transportation, building engineering work and other employ mepts involving more or less hazard Ia all but four of the twenty-two for eign countries the entire burden o the liability law rests upon the em ployer. The laws are specific witf regard to the compensation allowed and the regulations for its payment so that settlements are usually amics kle.
 Tho principle upon which all thi' legislation rests is that the risks o extra-hazardous employment are prop erIy a part of the cost of production and must be borne by the consumer There is much to be said in favor O this principle if it be indiscriminatine ly applied. The attempt to make tn law apply only to railroads is mani festly unjust, yet it Is a question jus how far the federal government ma properly iegislate in this direction.
 It is also a fact worthy of consit eration that in this country extr wages have always been paid for e1 tra hazardous employment and i many cases such wages have bee sufficient to cover the cost of persona insurance on the part of the workma and stfi1 leave him greater earning c; pacity than other lines of employmer permit.

OPENING PosToFFIcEs.

It has been left to Italy, to delzon- strate the value of battleships fori opening postofices. The Italian gov ernment contended that Turkey was violating treaty obligations by refus- | ing to permit the opening of Italian I postoffices in Jerusalem, Smyrna, and some other cities. The Turkish gov-l ernment argued that its postal ser vice was good enough for anybody and that alien postoffices would bel an impairment of national dignity. Then the Italian government an nounced that it could protect the dignity and, sefaeguard the rights of Italy only by sending it's fleet to the Levant Italy has a fleet and Turkey has not As the other European pow CTS did not appear to object to the proposed expedition to the Levant, the sultan has yielded and the post office incident is closed.

The number of idle freight cars, which was over S4O.O0O during Jan uary and part of February, was re- duced to 296,OOO in the middle of March.
 Figures for the beginning Of April show a net surplus of 3O5,000 cars, again making an unfavorable reading of the commercial and industrial ba- rometer.
 People are asking on every hand when good times will return There Is an answer in the tables which show no further back than last octo- Der and November shortages instead of a surplus in freight carrying equip ment.
 Prosperity will be re-established when these freight cars are all al work on the main lines, instead oi standing empty on the sidetracks.

MIR. RooSE gELT'S
 UNFoUNDED FEARS.

NIT. Roosevelt is quoted by the Hungarian artist who painted his DOT trait as saying that in six or seven years he will have been forgotten by the American people.
 The president is duly self-deprecia- tive. So far from being forgotten, he will live in the mouths of men for generations to come. Are malefac- tors of great wealth afflicted with amnesia? Are the memories of un- desirable citizens shorter than those of the rest of mankind? Is there any threatened impairment of mental power among the naturefakers or in the Ananias club? Mir. Roosevelt has been too large a part of the history of his time to be consigned to pre- mature oblivion. He has erected nu- merous monuments to himself more enduring than brass.
