Motor Wagons for Mail Service.

The Postal department is soon to
receive bids for the transportation of
mail in New York City by means of
automobiles. The motor cars are to
be used between the main postoffice
and the substations and depots wher-
ever the pneumatic tubes do not per-
form the service. The plan has been
tried elsewhere with success and found
to be approximately as speedy as the
pneumatic tubes, much more reliable
and operated with only a fraction of
the cost.
This is one branch of the postal
service which has Jagged somewhat.
Methods of handling mail between
cities have been perfected until the
lost time is reduced to the minimum;
train service has been accelerated and
the time consumed between the sender
and recipient reduced except in the sin
gle one of transportation within the
cities between the depots and post
office. Here the horse and wagon still
reign supreme and in many cases the
same is true of communication be-
tween the main offices and their
branches, though the street railway
has peer utilized wherever practicable.
Just why the government has been
slow in trying out the automobile is
not apparent, but if it proves success
full in New York with it's congested
streets 1t should prove much more so
in other places. The adding of a few
minutes to the closing time of mails
is a most important one in commercial
centers, often meaning a whole day
in time between the writing and de-
livery of a communication.

COMPARATIVE Power of Wealth.

Prof. Ferrero of Italy has been writ
Paris Figaro on his observations of
America and American life. He has
shown that he comes as a student with
an open mind and his writings bear
the impress of not only a trained OBJ
server but of a candid man. The time
at his disposal in this country was so
limited, however, that it Is not strange
he has been led into occasional error
and drawn incorrect conclusions.
In treating the subject of the rela-
tive power of wealth here and abroad
Prof. Ferrero has plainly overlooked
a pertinent sociological fact. That the
power of wealth, as such, is greater in
the United States than in Europe is a
conclusion with which thoughtful men
will not be inclined to take issue with
him. In searching for the reason,
while he has not gone altogether
wrong, he holds to the belief that the
power of wealth in this country is not
because of money worship, but because
government here does not exercise the
supervision over financial and business
affairs that 1t does in Europe and it is
from this freedom of private initiative
and conduct that wealth gains its
power. The American millionaire, he
declares, assumes responsibilities
which in Europe are exercised by the
z.a.- - -..4L .,.-..sIsIsa, 1000
power.
This view can be only partially true,
for with us the state is less a factor
in business enterprises, as well as in
the restraints upon all phases of pri-
vate life. There is an economic and
sociological fact behind our conditions
which Prof. Ferrero fails to recognize.
The great fortunes of Europe are with
few exceptions of slow growth, the &C
emulation of generations of effort by
the families which possess them. With
the slower growth of the fortune has
been born a conservatism to which the
man who has accumulated a fortune
in his own lifetime is a stranger. Ag-
g~ressiveness and strong initiative have
been the means by which most of the
large American fortunes have been
built up and naturally, when acquired,
their owners are not always consider
ate in the use of those fortunes, 1t is
with this, as with all other AFFAIRS of
life, the radicalism of youth as dis
tinguished from the conservatism of
age.
If the professor will scan our his
tory along with his study of present
conditions he will observe hat the
rapid growth of the nation has in the
past given rise to many problems just
as serious as this and that they have
been met and solved as they have pre-
sented themselves. just as this one is
in process of adjustment.

Symptoms of the fall municipal campaign

Illinois and Texas are rivals for a prize
Tor lofty craftsmanship. Law makers Of
the former state would limit the breadth
or omen's hats. Texas would restrict the
length of the bills TO so.

Prolonging Tariff Debate.

The earlier anticipations that the
tariff bill could be disposed Of by June
I are not 10 be fulfilled IL present
signs count for anything. It now
seems more probable it. will be 4
month later than that date before the
measure is completed and in the presi-
dents hands. So many senators have
indicated a disposition to debate the
various schedules that considerable
time must elapse before the senate
commences to vote on the details of
the bill. Just how many more want
to be heard in an extended way no one
appears to know, but it is presumed
that debate will continue until the SEN
ators can assure themselves how much
support the divergent ideas on the va
rious schedules can muster.
The debate in the senate will serve
its chief purpose in allowing time for
the various group to get together and
by a showing Of strength to C
concessions in the makeup of the bill.
When all the campaign thunder has
been manufactured and the groupings
are complete the senate will vote and
not until then. Present indications
are that it will be some time in June
before this is accomplished. Then
will come the tug Of war, which, while
less spectacular or extended, will be
the real making Of the tariff bill, so
far as points in controversy are con-
cerned. The conferees of the two
houses will thresh it all out, and this
work is expected to require at least
two weeks. for 1t is certain there will
be many and radical differences be-
tween the senate and house ideas.
Those who are inclined to find fault
with the delay in the passage of the
bill and to charge the present con-
gress with dilatoriness have short
memories. The uncertainty and agita-
ton incident to a revision of the tariff
is undoubtedly harmful to business,
but if July 1 sees the bill enacted into
law il will have broken the record of
recent years. Previous bills have been
enacted at regular sessions which con-
vened in December and the passage
was in each case delayed by the inter
ference of regular business until
month after month had dragged along
and only the advent of midsummer
heat compelled congress to vote and
go home. Allowing for the greatest
probable limit for a vote on the pres
ent tariff bill, it will have been a dis
turbing factor for a shorter length of
time than its predecessors.

Self.C Convicted.

One of the planks in one of the plat
forms or which our demo-pOp gov
ernor and legislature rode into Office
last fall reads as follows:
We call attention to the tremendous in
crease In taxation under republican rule.
The appropriations of the republican leg
islature are now. in round numbers, 5000
900, while under the populist administration
they were but 81, 600, 900.
During the campaign the demo-pop
orators and organs constantly harped
on alleged republican extravaganza
and promised that if the republicans
were turned down and demo-pops we're
put in their places the cost of state
government would be at once materi-
ally reduced.
The official compilation of the APP
preparations made by the late demo-
pop legislature in comparative exhibit
alongside of the same items for the
preceding republican legislature shows
a grand total for the demo-pops of
$5,203, 754, as against ~$4,367,257 for
the republicans two years before.
This exhibit of cold figures is the
i~ndisputable proof that the complaint
about republican extravaganza was en-
tirely without foundation. Instead of
reducing the cost of state government.
the demo-pops have made appropria-
tions more lavish than any of their
predecessors and, so far as the pledge
to cut down is concerned, they stand
s~elf-convicted OF insincerity and them
selves exposed to the same arraign-
ment which they made against the re-
publicans.

Golfers Weekly says that while
practically every member of congress
has made a long set speech on the
Payne bill, the best four speeches de-
livered in the tariff debate up to late
are those of Serene e. Payne of New
York, of Champ Clark of Missouri,
Francis w. Cushman of Washington
and Claude Kitchen of North Carolina.
Golfers is %prejudiced or it would not
leave out our Nebraska members, each
of whom delivered the very best
speech that was made.

Tariff on Blooded Stock.

The west particularly will be inter
ested in the effort of Senator Burkett
to have blooded live stock, imported
for breeding purposes, retained on the
free list. Under the Dingley bill such
animals come in free, and the pending
tariff bill as it came from the house
retained this provision. The senate
committee, however, has inserted a
clause for a 25 per cent ad valorem
duty where the stock is sold by the i'm
porter, but is duty free when used by
him for his own purposes. From the
very nature of things the business is
in the hands of men who import to
sell. Few breeders require enough
animals to warrant them importing
their own stock, and even where they
do the necessities of the business gen.
orally require a sale after a year or so,
when the duty, under the senate pro-
visions, would have to be paid.
The im%portations of this class of
live stock are not sufficient in amount
to be a material factor in e pro-
duction. The total imports of live
stock of all kinds is about 81, 500, 900
annually, the greater portion of which
is animals from Mexico and Canada
for slaughtering purposes and which
under all the bills are subject to duty,
The value TO the country of the
blooded animals imported for the pur-
pose of breeding up American live
stock is out of all proportion to the
amoun of revenue An import tax
would produce.
At the present time the meat supply
OF the country is a vital one. Prices
are high and the reason assigned is
that meat production has not kept
pace with the increase in consuming
power of the country. Many compe-
ten authorities hold that meats, on
the average, u go still higher for
the same reason. So far as mere num-
bers of animals go, the great store

that a coffee tariff would be essentially a
