A Sample of State Ownership.

Advocates of the government ownership and
operation of our American railroads might with
profit turn their attention to the condition and
the prospects Of the service and the properties
of the government-owned railroads in the west
Of France. The French newspapers are begin
ming to tell the plain facts about this system
and to condemn it as the most enormously ex-
pensve and the least successful of the state en-
terprses in that country.
The properties are in wretched physical
condition, which is growing worse every day.
the service in its every branch is about as bad
as it well could be- and the administration in
general what plam-sroken people here in the
United States call ''rotten.'' One account says
that passenger trains long since ceased to run
on schedule except by mere accident, while
freight trains are operated absolutely without
system and sometimes not operated at all; all
sortsof commodities are held up for weeks at
time in transit, foodstuffs and other perish
able products go to decay in the cars, and claims
for damages are piling up so fast and so high
that in all probability few of them will ever be
adjusted, much less be paid.
Still, the government contemplates this wreck
and ruin with unruffled serenity and its officers,
if they give ear to the complaints at all or

Some idea of the cost of ADVERTISING in tho
Leading periodicals of the country may be in
ferred from the statement that the center double
page OF the Saturday Evening Post costs the
advertiser about $4,000 for the one insertion. But
the space is taken every issue of the publication,
ana, Tor that matter, engaged for months ahead
probaDly. Does anyone imagine for moment
that such rates would be paid unless com,
mensurate return derived on the invest
ment? The Post has million and half suh
scrlbers-which means five or six million read
ers, and 10000 inquiries from the one-time adj
yertsement would perhaps be modest
estimate. 1t is to be noted, too, that it is the
plg houses that are promoting speciality
and to do it have reduced advertising TO an cx
act science-that buy this expensive advertising.
They would not do it unless it paid them. The,
might get stuck once in the game but tlev
certainly would not bite the second time unless
there was something in it for them

Whatever mode of lighting the streets may
be adopted by the commissioners for the town
OF Tonopah, the thing certain about the
proposition is that more lights are needed AS
respects ITS streets after nightfa Tonopah at
present resembles nothing so much as a back
woods village. There are long stretches of
street enveloped in Stygan darkness, and the
brave wayfarer, approaching one of the distant
gas-la1lps feels we presume, as the mariner does
when, off lee shore, he discerns the light
burning off the rocky point He is thankful, Of
course There was a time when our citizens
were thankful they had a lighting system as
good as the one in use but now that better
may be provided we want it.

Ii the divorce law is to be tnkered with
so as to secure bona fde residence of those
seeking separation under the Nevada laws
there is but one way to do it. That is to
lengthen the period Of residence in the state
required of the plaintiff antedating the fling of
the suit. Once in while, where the play is
rather more raw than usual the court may de-
termine that the residence is for divorce pur-
poses only. But usually this is an indetermin-
able act-at least unsusceptible of proof-and
the court is helpless in the premises. Make the
term OF residence before filing suit two years.
and then the chances are the applicant belongs
here since with such provision here he might
as well try to get the divorce in his old home.
where possibly the term Of residence required
IS less. A two-year provision will put the grand
kibosh on this divorce scandal

The Chinese have strict ideas about news
paper libel The Chinese newspaper over in
Frisco, the Chung Sal Vat Pc, said something
about one of the tongs, the Ming Yungs which
dldn t suit the younger element And now by
way OF reparation the Ming Yungs demand that
the paper for ten days publish such matter as
may be furnished it by them, afterward to
suspend for ninety days and to dismiss two
writers who dished up the libelous stuff. It
must have been lily-white reputation that
could have been injured to this extent With

Hangman Radclive Dead.

Donald James Radclive, official
hangman for the Dominion of Can
ada. died in Toronto, after a brief i'll
ness. He was sc years old, and at
the time of his death resided at the
home of his mother
Radclive, while resenting the criti-
cisms which were frequently made of
his calling, took a certain grim pride
in doing his work well. The rope
which he employed he bought him
self, selecting it with the greatest
care. Curiously, this gruesome relic
was turned to account by him, for
after each execution he was beset by
relic hunters. TO whom he sold the
hemp as souvenirs.
One hundred and ffty-four times
during his occupancy of the office had
he sprung the fatal drop. He boast
ed, however, that in all his career he
never hanged woman.

WANTED TO BE AGREEABLE
Farmers Rather Humorous ExpIana-

"Tall" Story.

Irving Batcheller once told a story
OF a farmer on the Connecticut hills.
Pretty steep land for planting, isn't
it?" visitor asked the tiller Of the
soil.
Pretty steep" the farmer assented.
II suppose it's quite difficult to
plant your corn?"
quite difficult" came the echo.
The visitor was interested, and
would not be put of with short re-
plies.
"Eh-how do you manage to plant
on this hill?" he persisted.
The farmer gazed at him pityingy.
I'VE have 10 shoot It all into tho
earth with shotguns, stranger" he as
sured his guest.
The visitor gasped. Really" he
calculated Really now? Is that 40

his guest a look of whitening scorn.

DECIDES TO CALL A SPECIAL
SESSION OF THE CONGRESS
APRIL TO DEAL WITH
RECIPROCITY MATTERS.
RUMOR THAT ALDRlCH WILL
PERSONALLY APPEAR TO
CHAMPION AGREEMENT
is DOUBTED.
Leaders See No Hope Of Bringing
the Mccall Bill to a Vote
at This Session.

So probable is il that an extra ses-
sion OF congress will be necessary TO
get action on the Canadian reciproc-
ity argument that President Taft has
fixed April as the Date on which
such session may be called. The
April date was selected after consul
tation with Champ Clark and Repre-
sentative Underwood, whose commit
tee will have charge of and report the
reciprocity bill in the next house,
The leaders see no hope OF bring
ing to a vote at this session the Nc
Call bill TO carry the Canadian agree
ment into effect. Many rumors were
circulated OF moves to remedy the
situation. but apparently they were
all without foundation. The most
persistent of all was one that Sena-
tor Aldrich was speeding TO Wash
ington at the urgent solicitation OF
President Taft to take charge Of the
situation in the Senate. The rumor
apparently. was distortion of tele-
gram which the senator sent from
Jekyl island, Georgia, where be has
been for several weeks in search of
health saying that II he were in
Washington he would vote for the
Canadian agreement. The telegram
was to one of the Senate leaders ask
ing that a pair be arranged for him
in favor of the Mccall bill if IT comes
Ia vote this session. The fact that
such a telegram was received was
whispered about the Senate and Gre
ated some surprise, as manv stand
pat senators had believed that Mr..
Aldrich. like Senator Hale Of Maine
would oppose the reciprocity arrange
ment.
AS matter OF fact no one believes
that the coming of Senator Aldrich
would alter the situation in respect
10 the Mccall bill. The measure
is opposed by Senators Cnmmins,
Bristow. Clapp and many other in
surgent Republicans. The arrival OF
Mr. Aldrich and anv attempt b. him
TO force the consideration of the bill
upon the Senate would he like shak-
ing a red rag in the face of bull.
1t would serve. according TO the con-
sensus of opinion, I'm the Senate, only
to intensity the insurgents fight
against the measure. Not onlr that.
but his friendship for the bill unQues-
tionably would ALLEVIATE some CT his
best friends. like Senator McCumber.
Hale Smoot, and others who aided
him in framing the Pavne-A'drich
tariff law, but who are opposed 10 the
Canadian agreement.

BECOMES A BISHOP.
Rev. Joseph schrembs Is .lconsserated
in Grand Rapids.

Before the same altar where 20
years ago he was ordained "a priest,
and with the same apostolic hands
laid on his head Mgr Joseph
Schrembs of Grand Rapids was conse-
Grated auxiliary bishop of Grand
Rapids at Sc Andrews cathedral. .s
The occasion was marked with rare
dignity and was participated in by
the greatest assemblage of church
dignitaries Grand Rapids ever wit
messed. The service, which is the
most stately and impressive spectacle
OF ecclesiastical splendor and pomp,
reached its climax when Bishop Hen
ry Joseph Richter, of the Grand Rap
ids diocese, as consecrator, and Bish-
op Camillus p. Macs, of Covington,
KY, and Bishop John s. Foley. of
Detroit, as co-consecrators wearing
their mitres, placed their hands on
the bowed head of the bishop-elect and
conferred on him the episcopal power
which raised him from the priesthood
to membership in the American HER
archy and among the successors to
the apostles of Jesus Christ

Senator Cartier IL gcing TO intro

protesting against the construction OF
the lake to gulf waterway which II
is proposed TO run through the Chi

that by drawing of the warm Lake

cold Lake Superior water the climatic
conditions on the west shores OF Lake
Michigan will so upset as perhaps
to ruin the great fruit raising indus

NEW LINE IN CENTRAL OREGON
Will Open Up 100000 Acres Of
Government Lands.

Portland. Ore.-The long-heralded
invasion OF central Oregon by the
Hill lines will become a reality on
March l, when passengers and freight
service will be inaugurated between
Clarke, Wash, on the north side OF
the Columbia river and Madras, Ore,
llJ miles up the Deschutes valley.
The new line will open q fertile and
undeveloped territory which hereto
fore has been difficult of access for
lack of transportation facilities. Set
tiers have been going in by team for
the past few months in great num-
bers and filing on the free homestead
lands. There are 100000 acres of
government land that will be made
mediately accessible.

The House on Washington's birth
day did the biggest stroke of business
it has yet accomplished 1t sat both
forenoon and afternoon and passed
ten bills in committee OF the whole
and six bills on third reading. This
cleaned the slate and as the commit
tees were mighty slow reporting out
the bills there was nothing for them
to do the day following. On this ac-
count Rep. Ashley moved 10 adjourn
from Thursday to Monday so the
House could take its junket.

en- weeks of monkeying around. over

while all business was held up. the
House Tuesday afternoon took two
hours off and fought il out. Rep

make trips TO the several institutions
at week ends so far as possible
Speaker Baker promptly declared the
resolution out OF order and an appeal
was taken. The chair was overruled
by a vote OF 80 10 ~ substitute
offered for the resolution was lost
by vote OF 80 to 80 and the main
resolution was then put after a hot
debate in which the speaker was
roundly scored on all sides The reso.
luton was adopted by a vote OF 81 TO
80 and the junket goes. The mem
bers OF the House declare this is no
1unket. but merely an educational
visitation. Baker calls It a junket
and II is on that point that the House
has disagreed and been kept in tur-
moil ever since the opening OF the

The terrible mix-up in which the
election laws of Michigan are in is
shown by this springs necessities.
Within six weeks it is necessary that
caucuses he held TO elect delegates to
the county conventions. the county
conventions must be held to elect
delegates TO the state convention, jul
dicial primaries must be held on
March l, the state convention comes
on March 2, the local primaries must
be held March IA, and April is cleo
ton day. The election laws, it is
averred. should be tackled with firm
hand and all these cumbersome and
confusing situations should be ironed
out and all election days combined
to make one shot of il all.
