"In fact, this clerk here has a pecu-

him at work you will find whenever a
woman is registering he holds a blotter
so as to hide the other names on the

Conviction Grows of Likelihood
Of Anthracite Operators Shut

NEW YORK, March 17.-Rumors are
taking definite form that the anthracite
operators will shut down their collieries
on April 1 unless the miners come to
an agreement with them before that
time. A shutdown or q strike or a
continuance of the present working
agreement for three years is the only
possible solution, according to promi-
nent operators.

Philadelphia and Reading Railroad. did

IN THE GOOD OLD DAYS.
Things Are Not Like They Used
to Be.

Along the Allegheny the graybeards
are mourning the old days when steam
boats. piled between Pittsburg and OH
City. Down along the Ohio they sadly
refer to the good old days when that
stream was the only serviceable high
way for people who desired to travel
from Wheeling and Cincinnati to New
Orleans. In the river towns of Illinois
and Iowa the old settlers look out at
the broad Mississippi and refer in mel
ancholy tones to the good Ole days
when palatial passenger boats made
regular trips UP and down between st.
Louis and St. Paul. At Vicksburg the
other day a veteran stood uponsone of
the bluffs and, gazing out at the yellow
stream, that curved around De Soto ISL
and, said:

old times back again. The railroads

and our grandfathers, made life so well
worth while. How pitiful 1t is, and
how glorious 1t would be If we could
return to the time when Pittsburg and
Cincinnati were no more populous than
Peoria is today; when Davenport and
Quincy were mere rows of warehouses
and saloons along the river front, and
when Vicksburg was a cluster of huts,
half-buried in mud. Oh, execrable rail-
roads! Why did they come to deprive
us and our children of the romance, the
excitement and the glory of life as II
was in "the good old days ?"-Chicago

ADVANCE IN WIRELESS.
Rapid Strides Since Marconi's
Famous Discovery in 1896.

Marconi produced in 1896 the first
wireless telegraph capable of sending
and recording electric waves across
long distances. In that yea he could
send ineligible messages 200 feet. By
1900 he had perfected the process so as
to be able to transmit messages 200
miles. In 1902 his ship. the Carlo AL
berta, kept In touch by wireless with
a station on the coast of England at
distances up to 1900 miles. In Decem-
Der of that year wireless messages
were exchanged between England and
Canada. In 1907 a regular tr%ansatlan-
tic wireless service was i~naugurated.-

KING COTTON'S THRONE.
Here or Where He Is Only /;
Visitor?

In all discussion regarding cotton
two facts are paramount-first, that
cotton controls the world, and second,
that the nations that reap a ~prodigal
harvest from the sale of cotton goods
depend upon America for the raw sup
ply.
The American people have begun to
realize the significance In the fact that
alien nations that never saw a cotton
plant have long since entered the king
dom of cotton and now divide dominion
among themselves. excluding the Uni
ted States, where the cotton Is grown.
The contest among the Powers today
is for trade, and cotton in some form Is
the chief commodity carried. 1t is in
conceivable that other nations can go
on at the expense of America. winning
trade triumphs with a commodity
which they do not naturally possess,
which they cannot obtain in sufficient
quantities outside of the United States,
and which they could not manufacture
at a profit but for the fact that we
sell the product near and at times ever
below the cost of raising 1t.
An analysis of this trade in cotton
goods reveals that of our exports more
than six million dollars worth consists
of unbleached cloths, while of our i'm
| ports more than twenty-five million
| dollars worth consists of finer fabrics
| including embroideries, laces and cur
tains.
Altogether the figures show thai
| while we exported in the ten months
| ended with October, 1908, twenty-five
| million dollars worth of the output o.
| our cotton mills the nations sold to u
| almost 100 per cent. more than we sole
them.
1t is a g~rotesque and almost unbeliev
able item in the commerce of this ag'
that a resourceful nation like America
| the producer of the worlds cotton
| should buy back we dollars worth o
| cotton goods for every dollars wortf
1t ships abroad. Now is the time FOL

CARDINAL GIBBONS
ON THE CHURCH
AND THE REPUBLIC
Says Each Has Own Specific
Jurisdiction, Within Which
Obedience Must Prevail.

Cardinal Gibbons, writing on THE
Church and the Republic" in the March
North American, refers to the idea
that used to be common among a null
titude of people in this country, that
it was impossible for a man to be at
once a Roman Catholic and a truly
patriotic citizen of the United States,
inasmuch as the Roman Catholic was
supposed to W his first and most
sacred allegiance to "a foreign poten-
tate" the Pope. The cardinal, citing
historical pronouncements. points out
that the teaching Of the church has al.
ways been that the civil government.
no less than the ecclesiastical govern
ment, has divine authority; conse-
~quently, that the church cannot inter
NEEDLE In affairs purely civil, nor the
state In affairs purely ecclesiastical,
and that Roman Catholics are bound
to obey the state within it's own do
main in all things that do not contra
vene the moral law. The cardinal con
cludes;
There is a union that is inimical to
the interests of religion. and conse-
quentIy to the state, and there Is a
separation that is inimical to the inter
ests of religion. and consequently to
the state, and there is a separation
that Is for the best interests of both.
In our country separation Is a neces-
sity, and 1t is a separation that works
best for the interests of religion. as
Mr., Taft recently stated, as well as for
the good of the state. I fully agree
with him, and l can understand too
and sympathize with the great Cath
olic leader of France, the Count de
Nun. who recently exclaimed: In
America separation means the reign of
liberty; In France tho reign of i'm
| piety.' American Catholics rejoice in
our separation of church and state,
and | can conceive no combination OF
circumstances likely to arise which
should make a union desirable either
to church or state. We know the
blessings of our present arrangement;
1t gives us liberty and binds together
priests and people in a union better
than that of church and state. Other
countries, other we do not
believe our system adapted to all con
d%itlons; we leave 1t to church and
state in other lands 70 DIV their
