eanarens Of Caste In India.

Those who have not lived in India
nor have made q special study of its
unique conditions can hardly under
stand the differences and hatreds that
exist among the different peoples. Be-
tween the Mussulman and the Hindu,
the Punjabi and the Bengal, the Sikh
and the Brahmin, and between many
of the smaller divisions of religion,
race and caste there is no such thing
as cohesion or cooperation; and II,
to a small degree. the rigid lines OF
caste have been broken down here and
there so that labor and commerce un.
der modern conditions have been
made possible 1t is due in no small de.
gree to the efforts Of Great Britain.

Policeman M. Mcmahon claims that
we did him an injustice in our &C
count OF the fire and the editorial on
1t In last weeks paper. Mr.. Mcmahon
claims that he turned in the alarm
and the members of the fire depart
ment state that he arrived at the
engine house at about the time the
alarm was telephoned in. We are
always glad to correct any misstate-
ments we may make but we still
think our inquiry of last week "Where
we're the police" was pertinent as a
fire does not secure the headway it
had in moment and an able bodied
man ought to be able to go from the
center of town to the engine house
in less than an hour.

In recent editorial we claimed
that the rate charged by the local
company to users of electricity was
exorbitant. Lyman Beecher, mana
ger of the local plant, claims to us
that the average rate charged by
private plants in the state is l0i
cents which is higher than the rate
here. He left for our inspection a
book giving the rate in almost every
city in the state. We have not been
able to give this matter the examina-
tion necessary in order to determine
whether or not we were incorrect in
our statements. We will either cor.
rect our statements or substantiate
our claims soon.

No Chance for a Romance.

A young woman living in the neigh
borhood OF Thirty-third and Cumber-
land streets the other morning bought
at a nearby grocery dozen eggs. On
one among them there was scratched
the name, with address, of a young
farmer up the state. He had also writ
ten on the egg a request that the per-
son buying It write to him.
The young woman wrote letter to
the tiller of the soil and received an
answer in which the farmer declared
himself pleased at having heard from
her. etc. He wound his letter up with:
II hope you did not eat the egg, as I
wrote that on It . year ago."-Phila-

Hon. F. M. Clevenger, of Whining
ton, State Senator for this district,
has made an excellent record in the
spec al session of the legislature just
closed he has been a regular at
tendant at all sessions and has been
active and energetic in securing the
passage of needed laws. No impor.
tant question was brought up that he
was not fou working and voting in
the interests of the people. And his
constituents DID not need to search
the yea and nay vote to find out
where he stood, as he has taken a
prominent part in the debates and
has clearly and logically given his
reasons for his position on all ques-
tions. While in several instances he
has, in our judgment, made mistakes,
he has been fearless in his stand and
we believe honest in his course. He
however is to be especially commen-
ded for his refusal to take advantage
of the l2c mile grab law. This law,
as our readers probably know, was
passed by the last legislature, and
gives each legislator the right to
draw IL cents mile travelling expen-
ses each time he goes home. How
anyone can defend such a law or have
the nerve to draw the money when 1t
only costs him cents a mile can not
be conceived. Still however as the
large majority of the members have
taken advantage of this law to get
some of the publics money without
giving anything in return, the legis-
lator who has proved faithful to the
people deserves commendation. The
people of this district should congrat-
ulate themselves that they have a
representative who Is earnest and
jealous In their behalf and who does
not draw six times as much money
for expenses as he pays out.

NEW FRIENDS-AND AN OLD ENEMY.
r ANGDON gazed at the two depart
ing senators with varied emo
tions. He sat down to think
- over what they had said and to
carefully consider what manner of man
was Peabody, who showed such an in
terest in him. He realized that he
would have considerable intercourse
with Peabody in the processes of legis-
lation and finally had to admit to him
self that he did not like the senator
from Pennsylvania. Just what it was
Langdon could not at this time make
of contradictions in the senator's char
acter-slight traces, true, but traces
nevertheless. Peabody's cordia1ity and
sympathy were to Langdon's mind
partly genuine and partly false Jus,
what was the cause of or the necessity
for the alloy in the true metal he could
not fathom.
His talk with these famous lawmak
ers was unsatisfactory also in that il
had conveyed to Langdon the sugges
ton that the senate was not primarily !
great forum for the general and ae
tive consideration of weighty meas
ures and Of national policies. 1t had
been his idea that the senate was pri
marily such forum, but the attitude
of T.0'Nody and Stevens had limited t,

they were anxious that Altacoola
should have the naval base regardless
of the claims or merits of any other
section That was unusual, puzzling
to Langdon Moreover, it was poor
business. yet there were able business
men in the senate. Not one of them
would, for instance, think of buying
site for a factory until he had investi-
gated many possible locations and then
selected the most favorable one. Why
was it, he pondered, that the business
of the great United States Of America
was not conducted on business lines?
He must study the whole question In
telligently: that was imperative. He
must have advice, help. To whom was
he to go for it? Stevens? Yes, his old
friend, who knew all t'the ropes" Yet
even Stevens seemed different in Wash
ington than Stevens in Mississippi.
| Here he played second fiddle" He
| was even 1)sequious, Langdon had OBJ
served, to Peabody. In Mississippi he
was leader. and a strong one too. But
Senator Langdon had not yet learned
| of the many founts from which polit
| ical strength and political leadership
may be gained.
What he finally decided on was the
engaging of a secretary. but he must
/ be one with knowledge of political Op-
| erations, one who combined wisdom
with honesty. Such an aid could pre-
vent Langdon from making the many
mistakes that invariably mark the new
man in politics, and he could point out
| the most effective modes of procedure
| under given circumstances. 1t might
| prove difficult to find man of the nee
essary qualifications who was not al
ready employed, but in the meantime
Langdon would watch the playing OF
the game himself and make his own
deductions as best he could.
The senator started toward the hote

of his son Randolph when his atten
