ARE GETTING READY.

A rumor states that either Sunday,
August 81, or Sunday, August Is, one
through train will be put on DetWesh
Kansas City and Frankfort over the
Union Pacific Onaga cutoff. Other re-
ports state that the service VIII extel !'l
to Grand Island via Frankfort, ana ~
this Way Kansas City will be connected
direct with the coast via Cheyenne
When the new schedule goes into ell
feet it is likely that the time card OF
the Union Pacific will be changed 20
some extent Topeka will likely De one
of the important stations on the new
line.
All along the cutoff stations are pc
ing repaired. reports say that opera
tors are being hired and indications
point to the establishing of through
tran service ii the extent OF seVerdl
trains a day in the near future
The work on ballasting and lining up
the track and preparing Tor heaVy
traffic is being rushed as fast as pos
sibIe. The track was in bad shape on
account of the severe weather last WIN
ter. The ground was frozen to sucn
an extent and the SHOWS had washeu
out the fills so much that much tne
was required to get the track III
good shape.
The Topeka street railway has re-
ceived 20 kegs of spikes which will be
used to continue the Shorey extension.
ON account of the lack of material IL
was thought that the work might De
DELAYED, but it is likely that enough
snilxes. etc. will arrive before those on
sand will be used up and so no delay
Z will be caused. 1t is expected that the

WOODROW WILSON'S VIEWS.

IT n two utterances this week, one at Chattanooga inc onei
in a reply TO a letter of inquiry by Mr.. Edgar Williamson, 0

Woodrow Wilson corrects the gross misrepresentation Oh my

words to Edgar Williamson efectually dispose of the mrsrepresen'

pected from a man of his character and record.

seriou. Condition of Affairs.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
The fact that in the whole seven
years that Theodore Roosevelt occu-
pied the office of President of the Uni
ted States he was so hemmed in ana
tied up by the agents of the interests"
both in House and Senate, as to be
powerless to accomplish so much for
the people as he has in the last three
months, in the way of d~ncovering the
subtle rottenness of corporations, goes
to show us what a serious condition
of affairs confronts honest business
men today.
We see from the recent revelations
contained in Roosevelt's speeches just
how great have been the obstacles
in the way Of honest government. and
how deeply rooted are the causes OF
the inequalities of opportunity from
which the mass of the people suffer.
Selhshness, of course, lies at the very
root of the trouble. AS Roosevelt says
in his reply to the Evening Post:
Probably the Evening Post regards
the decalogue as outworn, but If it will
turn to it and will read the eighth and
ninth commandments It will see thai
bearing false witness is condemned AZ
strongly as theft itself" j. ]. F,

Urge. Cleaning Up city.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
l have heard and noticed of late
many complaints about the dirty con-
dition of the streets in various parts of
the city and wish that you would give
this little note a position in your paper.
Some of the streets are simply terrible,
and not only is the filth exceedingly
disagreeable to look at, but it Is quite
unhealthy.
I might add that in a measure the
street cleaning department is not alto
gether responsible for these conditions.
The people could help materially.
The STAR has won many a notable
fight for the benefit of the people-why
don't you start a crusade for clean
streets, clean houses, clean children
and clean habits throughout the city.
where the children of parents allow
them to romp the streets? Teach them
how to be clean, not to throw their
garbage out of the window on the side
walk and street; teach the women to
be clean. And do all this without in
juring their feelings and in a way that
shows no hatred against a race or a
special religion, but friendly endeavor
to elevate these aliens to American
ideas and habits SO that they will be a
blessing to this city and not a menace.
CLEANSER.

GROWTH OF THE GREAT CITY.

I'M MEXICAN cities that have had the presumption to aspire TO
Nv the primacy in population will now take a permanent
hack seat. Goham's increase of 13296S1 in the last decade
leaves the most advanced of them hopelessly in the rear. New York
city is peerless in her growth. She is and probably always VII De
in q class by herself. Nor does the 4,766,SS3 census population of
New York give the real dimensions. The population living in the
METROPOLITAN area around New York could be included on the com
prehensive plan of Greater London. Within this area, Greater New
York included. is a total population of about six million souls. In
te next ten wears there will be vast increases, as we'll as improve
ment in the transportation facilities of Greater New York; many
miles of new subways will be built; the two rivers will be tun-
neled in many places, and a tunnel will connect Manhattan with
Slater island. Probably the Hudson will be bridged. There will
be thousands of new skyscrapers. In attractions New York will
rival Paris. There is reason, therefore, to believe that the growth
of New York in population in the decade now begun will exceed that
of the decade since 1900.

How About Early cIosinxf

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Some time ago the business men on
Springfield avenue formed an organiza-
ton for the purpose of starting an
early-closlng campaign. The news
papers took up the matter and, accord
ing to the interviews with some of
the merchants, that long-wished-for
o'clock closing hour. seemed to be an
assured fact. We clerks were all de-.
lighted and really believed that the
thing would materialize.
However. although some time has
elapsed since the meeting of the or
gapization, we still have to work some
nights as late as 1890 and on Sunday
afternoons as we'll. We are pretty
much disguised with the whole affair.
for we see no reason why our en-
ployers cannot close the stores at a
reasonable hour and make just as much
money.
1 am sure that we all wish to serve
the public and our employers In a
strictly honorable way, but it is hard
to do so when neither the public nor
the bosses take the slightest interest in
our welfare. HILL SALESMAN

appointed at the dictaton of the men opposed to MS canuldacy

people. AS Mr.. Stokes says, he is and always has been an organlza-

organization. WHY should Mr.. Stokes be compelled to make an
appeal to the public for fair play?

SPANS TROUBLES INCREASE.

IN DDED to her troubles with the Vatican over church questions
A\ is a serious labor crisis for Spain. A general strike of
Spanish workmen has been ordered, and already there have
been disorders in Spanish cities. A labor strike in Spain always
means violence and usually bloodletting. There were only recently
some tragical evidences of that disposition of the Spanish laboring
classes. The fundamental trouble in Spain is the fact that the
people are not homogeneous. The populations of provinces are very
much unlike in their characteristics. Fervent piety in one province
is in strong contrast to an irreligious spirit in another. Spain, in
fact, is a reproduction of France during the revolution, when La
vendee and Brittany conserved the piety that seemed completely
extinguished elsewhere in France, and when the Nendean rustic and
the artisan of the large city were implacable enemies.

The People s Rostrum


working parents of these boys to arrest
the youngsters and impose a fine, for
the parents would be the real sufferers
in that instance. A good plan would
be to catch one or two of the culprits,
let them spend a night in a precinct
cell and then have the judge impose a
sentence of probation for a year.
A lesson of some sort should be given
to these lads to make them realize that
the city does not intend to plant and
nurse these trees just to accommodate
a few youngsters who are at a loss
what to do with themselves. The plants
in Morris avenue are all young ones
and give great promise of lending to
the identifying of that avenue. They
should be protected. A CITIZEN.
