THE CASE OF HEPBURN.

As "a coyote or jaekal, the Hon
Weldon Brinten Hepburn. OF idaho
would prove u howiing success. But as
a United States senator he is a snarl-
ing Naturalization to the body in
which he sits and Il foulness 10 the
state from which he comes.
For nearly an hour last Monday Hey
burn ratified his lungs in senseiess
but vicious attack on the old soldiers
eft the Confederaey and the memory of
Gen. Robert +. Lee. His conduct was
that of a gutter snipe Sinking through
Westminster abbey trying to defie the
taUbs of the great warriors and states
nzea buried there. 4 measure asking
the loan of government tents for the
use of the Confederate veterans at their
annual reunion IN Mobile next April
had been introduced Its adoption
meant gracious reminder that the bit.
terness of the 's0s was gone. that the
Union was Union of hearts. And
that was all it meant.
Had Hepburn, of Idaho, conseient
'ously opposed such a sentiment. he
could have done his duty. as he saw It.
and at the same time have saved his
deeeney by registering contrary vote.
But instead of this. he went back
across dead half-centurv to nose ou;
aid hates. He consumed almost an
hour of the senate's time to Islander
brave men and to libel the greatest gen
cral that Americas greatest war pro
tfuced.
Fancy the Hon. Weldon Brinton Hey
burn, who never saw battle. who
could not dimly guess the thoughts or
feelings OF q soldier, who halls from .
state that had no part In the war, fancy
him assailing the memory of Robert L.
Lee and of veterans who were proving
themselves heroes when Hepburn was
hanging TO his nurse : apron strings.
The senate heard him in bored sill
spce and then voted bodily against him.
That Was an isolation which most men
wauld have felt keenly and would havs
construed in IT'S significance But,
Hepburn, OF Idaho, probably reiishea it.
for it enabled him, like Richard the
Thiri to spy his shadow in the sun md
discant on his avn ,leformity.
We believe, however. that the entire
country, including his own constituents.
has learned him for what he is--an
enemy to the reunited nation. d coward
II defamer of American heroes. We
have happily reached a time, when the

WATERWAYS AND COMMERCE..

One reason. undoubtedly, why our
waterborne traffic has not grown is
that our principal waterway system,
except the Great Lakes, viz, the Mis-
sissippi and its tributaries, is not so
situated with reference to the main
currents of commerce as to be able
to command a large amount of traffic
no matter what rates may be on it. In
order that either waterway or
railway may get traffic and actually
cheaper transportation by carrying il,
II is not enough that it should be
willing and able to make low rates. 1t
rection as currents of commerce large
enough to afford it a substantial busi-
ness. The general direction in which
commerce moves is determined by the
economic law of supply and demand.
People ship goods to make a profit:
they con only make a profit by ship
ping them from where they are less
valuable to where they they are more
valuable; and where they shall be less
valuable or more valuable is deter
mined, since the coming of the rail-
way, mainly by conditions independ-
ent of the way in which waterways
run. In this country, owing to his
toric and economic reasons, manu-
featured goods are shipped mainly
from east to west and the products of
the farm mine and forest, mainly
| from west to east. The amount of
| traffic which moves north and south
is relatively small; and there seems no
ground for anticipating any substan-
tial change in this respect. As the
Mississippi and it's tributaries run
mainly north and south, it is hard to
see where a heavy traffic for them
could be obtained even though the
boats on them were able to compete
successfully in rates against the north
and-south railways.
The situation of the principal wa
terways of Europe relatively to the
main currents of commerce is more
fortunate The Rhine in Germany for
example, like the Great Lakes in this
country, is ideally located relatively
to the sources of production and con-
sumption of coal iron, ore, ETC., to
get a large traffic in them. In Eu-
rope, also. commerce grew up before
! the advent of the railway, and the di-
rection of the currents of traffic has
been influenced more by the way the
waterways run.-From "The Propos-
ed Development of Inland Water
ways" by Samuel o. Dunn in the
June Scribner.

IN THE INTERPRETATION

Doctor Harvey w. Wiley, chief of
the bureau of chemistry, in the de-
partment of agriculture, has interpre-
ted many laws affecting pure foods
and drugs. and has had some of his
own opinions reversed by the depart
ment of justice and the president.
He was discussing this one day
when he said:
.'The matter of interpreting laws is
much like the story of the little boy
who was told by his teacher to read
something from a primer. The boy
read as follows:
"'This is warm doughnut Step
on t.
Why, Johnny" said the teacher,
that can't be right. Let me see your
book
"This is the sentence she found
""This is a worm. Do not step
on it,

pretation of the laws of nowadays

which you view them. AS for me,

fighting ability or the seaworthiness
of the dreadnought.
They point out that explosives must
be confined if they are to do any
harm to anything nearly so stiff as
steel and ask how a ship built to
withstand the impact of armor-pierc-
ing shells, fired from the most pow
erful guns ever designed, could be
hurt by anything tossed overheard
from an aeroplane or a balloon.
A few hundred years ago the arch
ers were busy laughing at the new in
vention of firearms and explaining
that the superior rapidity and accur-
acy of arrow fire would make it i'm
possible for the bearers OF long shoot
ing irons to remain in one position
long enough to even aim their strange
weapons.
Those were the days when it took
two men to manipulate an infantry
mans fusil, and even the cavalry of
that day with their battle axes and
armor refused to take seriously the
new departure.
Now cavalry is used for scouting,
parades and little else in the game of
war; and the bow and arrow is the
weapon of ladies' archery clubs
The experts at the science of war
seem to have good grounds for their
contempt of airships as offensive ves-
sells. but after all what was wrong

Sir knights-considerin the point of
view-of the year 1000 A. d.

as they are not contradicted by eX-

/ futility of picric acid shells and dy-
Mantle bombs dropped on the decks
of the great ships in which we take
so much pride.
There are plenty of old ships rust

val experts are right-after being ex-

would be in position to say what

VERY PERPLEXING.

Democratic America, and especially
the feminine democracy must contend
with another perplexing problem of
social precedence. Is a Russian prin-
cess entitled to debar an English duch-
ess from New York hotel elevator?
The Princess Parlaghy says yes. and
the Duchess of Manchester says no.
The princess says it was her elevator,
specially reserved for her use, al
though there was no warning placard
to that effect
wha a mysterious thing is the eti-
quette of the nobility. Why should
princess, even a Russian, ask a
duchess, even an Americana English
woman. to get out of her elevator
when plainly she was not aware that
it was a private institution, especially
reserved? Is there no heart-courtesy
among the mighty? Is the presence
of reputable duchess contamination
to a princess, whatever her reputation
Of ancestors or station at court?
These little problems of rank should
be settled in the ola countries, and
American hotelkeepers should be duly
advised and instructed to put up man.
