The American In Canada.

The American farmer Is practica,
man; there is no cleverer-headed citi-
zen In the world, and moreover he is
frankly honest. When he finds in
Canada a system of Jurisprudence I'M
der which law is everywhere respect
ed, when he learns that Canada has
never seen lynchrng. that Canadian
history tells Of no Indian wars. he Is
very willing to acknowledge that
there is little here he would wish to
change. The fact is that In his gen
eral views and attitude toward life
no one is more like Canadian than
an American. The fact that they are
subjected to similar environment and
to the same broad sweeping continen.
tai forces readily explains how by
merely crossing north or south an
imaginary boundary line Canadian
and American alike pass from one citi,
zenship to another with far less fric'
ton than an Englishman can be trans
planted to either American or Cana
dian soil.--Atlantic Monthly.

FOUND IN THE RIVER.
The Revolver With Which Herbert
Jordan Was Shot is Discovered


Seneca. Kan. July 2s-Interest in the
assassination of Herbert s. Jordan in
Seneca on the evening of February IA last
was revived in Seneca by o. M. Adams, a
farmer living four miles from town. who
came in with a revolver his son had dis
covered in the Nemaha river at Fulton's
bridge Just outside the city limits. The
revolver was delivered to Sheriff Dennis,
who Immediately identified it as the one
used in the assassination of Jordan There
was one exploded cartridge in the revolt
yer and all the rest OF the cartridges re-
manned as placed in the weapon by the
purchaser at the time of the shooting.
Jordan was killed by a single shot. The
night OF the shooting a man recognized at
the preliminary examination as James
Lally had purchased this revolver at Will
liams' hardware store. Today on being
shown the gun Mr.. Williams at once rec
ognized the cost mark of the store, which
had not been washed on in the stream
the only revolver sold in the past two
years from his stock. The coroner has
the bullet extracted by the surgeon at the
inquest and it corresponds in weight and
number with those still remaining in the
revolver brought in by the farmer. Full
toms bridge is on the road taken by the
man Identified Lally the night of the
murder and the finding of this revolver
adds to the testimony showing he had
thrown it into the river while riding away
from the crime. The revolver was exhib-
of the afternoon and crowds swarmed
about the sheriff to see this latest evil
dence of Lally's guilt. Both young men
connected with the affair are dead Lally
later having been found in the Nemaha
county jail burned to death.

COMPARES EUROPE
Rates Higher There and Wages
Are Lower.
Other Items of Interest in
Railway Circles.

James j. Hill. who has returned from
hshing expedition to Labrador Is
fully impressed with the idea that rail-
road rates must be advanced IL the gen.
eral business of the country is TO be
aroused. This Is the way he expresses
himself:
Rates must be advanced or the
country will stop. II the railroads do
not secure an advance, they will be
unable TO expend the $500, 0Oo, 600 a year
for new rolling stock and facilities
without which they must go behind.
The loss of this s600.00o.oO0 will be felt
by the manufacturers and the pro-
Queer or raw material. So will the
farmer who supplies the food, the lum-
herman who supplies the lumber the
merchant and the laborer.
The effect of this $500. 600. 900 of direct
expenditure by the roads is enormous.
Compared to it a moderate advance in
rates is mere bagatelle. The railroads
have blazed the way of DEVELOPMENT.
BY their large expenditures they have
given business and prosperity to the
manufacturers and the people The in
terests of the roads and the manufac-
turers are closely related. If the for
mer are to decay. all else will decay
with them.
''Theer is no alternative but to raise
rates. The credit OF the railroads has
been seriously impaired. The way to
enhance credit is to increase rates.
Wages should not be cut. Efficient la
Dor is essential to successful operation.
Railroad employees have peculiar re-
sponsibilities. They have to meet the
test They should get fair recompense.
Cut wages 10 per cent and the man
who got SIS last week gets 1880 this
week. 1t is the difference between
meat and no meat.
Freight rates in this country are
low beyond comparison. Receiving but
one-half and often one-third of the
sum received in European countries.
the wages paid railroad employees here
average 100 per cent higher than in
Europe"
