NEW ROUTE TO THE ORIENT.

1t will be interesting to observe what effect the establishment of the
Togo Kisen Kaisha line from Yokohoma to New York, ia the railroad across
the isthmus of Tehuantepec, viii have upon the transcontinenta1 traffic of
railroads in the United States, and likewise whether it will prevent the de-
yeloping of American steamship lines from the Atlantic seaboard to the
Orient by way of the Panama canal. y \ 4 Up to the present time the
Japanese steamship lines have been complementary to the transconunental
railroads Of the United States. The new route will be a competitor. In view
of the short land travel. its freight will be subjected to in comparison with
the three thousand miles that stretches between New York and San Francis
CO, it would seem that an apparent advantage lies with the Japanese. But
whether the Togo Kisen Keisha will be able to prevent or check the develop
ment of American lines from New York to the Orient by way of the Panama
canal remains to be seen. It will have the advantage of about n thousand
ping of freight at Coatzacoacos and at aHna Cruz may not be accomp
Ished with SC great dispatch o sc little expense as the promoters of the
new line contemplate. In this case the Japanese company will find a white
elephant on its hands in the shape Of its agreement with Mexico. But Mexico
would be certain to share in whatever of commercial success there may be
in tn Japanese scheme. Such a vast amount of shipping entering Ter ports
and going across n hundred and eighteen miles of her territory is sure
to be a great source of wealth. Besides the tolls from it and the wages
earned by its transportation. it would undoubtedly attract other commerce
to the same ports, just as the investment of capital in any given place at
tracts other captal-Washfngton Post.

Talks.

AGAIN JOE BULANDA.

Perhaps you have read about little
Joe Bulanda Of Chicago, whose arm
was cut of by the state of Illinois.
When the doctors said the arm must
be amputated or he would die Joe
cried out:
I'D rather die than to have that
done. l don't want to grow up a bum
or a beggar."
But the state, to save Joe's life, gave
him chloroform and cut of his right
arm. And now, after his recovery,
his father, who also protested against
the amputation, has disowned the boy.
He says he cannot afford to lose Joe's
earning power.
And So
The child is left to grow up a 'bum"
or a good and useful. citizen, as society
chooses.
Joe is in the sixth grade and is anx-
ious to complete the eighth grade.
With that much education he says be
can maintain himself.
And what do you suppose Chicago
has offered the helpless waif? What
do you think one of the exclusive
clubs Of that city, in the plenitude of
sweet charity, has. offered the boy?
THE USE OF ITS SWIMMING
POOL!
Which the outcast cripple accepted,
and while the child splashes with his
one arm and two small legs, ENACT
ated by deprivation and sickness, the
club members bring visitors to point
out how it has given n Of life's di
versions to a poor cripple!
Perhaps the father should not be-
criticised too severely. Parenthooi
sits lightly on some who find that ever
two hands are scarcely enough to ge'
daily bread. In a family OF this kline
a weakling is sometimes considered {
curse.
But society!
Society is rich and powerful. VII
1t make good the Scripture which de
clares, when my father and mothe
forsake me, then the Lord will tax,
me upT"
When society stepped in to cut of
Joe's arm It assumed a distinct mora
obligation to see that he did not suffe
thereby. It's lawyers went into cour
to say ~'the state stands in loco paren
tis"-in the stead of Joe's parents.
Well
If the state was Joe's parent when i
amputated his arm, will 1t disowl
him now? He oughtsnot to be the OF
ject of charity. He is the child o
the state.

MR.. MICKEY AND H SUPERIOR COURT.

A number of exchanges-the latest being the East Chicago Globe

against Hammond in the matter of legislation a. Indianapolis providing for
an additional Judge in the Lake county superior court Some of these es
teemed editors sem to have become imbued with the idea that the superior
court in Hammond is a Hammond superior court 1t is not. 1t is the Lake
county superior court and the taxpayers from Lanthus and Leroy have just
as much interest In it as Hammond The Lake county superior court docket
is in a horribly congested condition and the Lake county Bar association has
asked as a body for relief for their htgants-
For some reason or other, best known to MI. Mickey, he did not zee fit
according to members of the Lake county Bar association, to display very
much enthusiasm in the behalf of the bill providing relief for the Lake
county superior court Some of the members of the association declare
emphatcany that Mr.. Mickey refused to help them. That is a matter for
them and Mr.. Mickey to settle Mr. Mickey has explained his position in
the TIMES and it has been given publicity by this paper. The people OF
Lake county, regardless of sectionaIsm, had a perfect right to ask that
Representative Wickey be impartial in his representations. Now, we hope
that none of our brethren will have to throw any more fits over Mr.. Mickey
