BUILDING CAPITAL OF INDIA.

Although nearly all the government
offices in Calcutta have now been
abandoned, little progress has yet
been made toward the construction oil
India's new winter capital, which is
to occupy site of three or four
square miles adjoining the present
city of Delhi, and for year or two
most government work is to be car
ried on at Simla the year rouhd'
though the viceroy and other import
ant officials are spending the pres
ent winter at Delhi. About % miles
of tramway are being laid about the
site of the new city. 1t is understood
that the imperial Delhi committee es-
Inmates the cost of the new capital at
about $20,OO0,0O0, though the impress
sion prevails in India that the cost
will be double this amount. About
5000 men are now working on the
site, and when the work is in full
swing from $1,000 to 10000 will be
steadily employed. An incidental
task will be the improvement of san
itary conditions in the old city.

DENVER SUFFERS FROM SNOW

DENVER, Colo, Dec. 19-The
second serious snow storm in a fort
night struck this city this morning,
The density of the snow fall increased
as the day progressed, and at noon il
was estimated there was a new blar
ket of the "wet beautiful" from three
to four inches in depth. Weather
Forecaster Brandenburg predicts the
storm will continue all day and all
night.
Today's snow, falling on that left
by the last storm, quickly made the
streets impossible. At noon, half
the cars were blocked and others were
operating with difficulty. 1t is ex.
pected by night not a car will be NOV
ing in the city. The sidewalks are
impossible. Pedestrians are making
their way around the city on the street
car tracks.
Suffering is reported in many
quarters. Since the last storm it has
been very difficult for coal wagons
to reach many sections of the city,
with fuel. The present storm will
make it impossible. At noon two
thirds Of the schools had to close be-
cause they were without fuel. The

CALAMITY BRINGS
PEOPLE TOGETH Err

Friends who went through the hor-
rors of the San Francisco earthquake
in 1906 and kept their spiritual senses
alert, tell me that its most poignant
experience was not one of horror or
of pity, but of the almost miraculous
attainment of human brotherhood.
Just after the disaster, when rich
and poor waited in line together for
their allowance of bread and milk, Il
saw" says friend, "a rich woman
from the St. Francis hotel lying
asleep on doorstep with her head on
muff A long sable coat was thrown
over her, and under one corner of 1t
young Japanese boy, perfect
stranger to her-was curled up asleep
Everybody was everybody's friend
and though we were all dog tired
there was not word of complaint or
i'll nature" To bivouac together IN
the park and care for each others
babies around fires of driftwood gath
cred on the beach, transformed men
and women into defenseless children
of the earth, revealed each to each by
their innate lovableness. Common
danger and mutual helpfulness, COM
mon conformation with the elemental
brought swift achievement OF al
most ideal brotherhood. A crushing
blow made all the world for a time

JAILING GRAFTERS.

The other day John Kueble, po-
litical boss of Atlantic City, N. j.,
began a Jail sentence of a year for
malfeasance. Kueble was member
OF the Atlantic City council and de-
cided that as one of the emoluments
OF that office he should be taken into
partnership on city contracts. A jury
OF his peers found that he had inbibed
the wrong notion of the legality and
morality of the situation, and that the
legal and moral atmosphere Of the
famous seaside resort would be bene-
fited by his removal from active par
sicipation ip its municipal affairs. So

POSTAL SERVICE swAMPED.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. 10
Postmaster General Burleson init
mated today that the government
would be unable to deliver more than
one-third of the Christmas packages
sent by parcel post next week. The
department is swamped all over the
United States. The postmaster gen
eral is considering sending post cards
to the addresses of the packages, no.
tifying them the packages are wait
ing them in the office and the service
is inadequate to deliver them prompt
ly. Everywhere postmasters are de-
manding extra help.

Mr.. Kueble is relieved from the cares
and anxieties of official graft for l2
months at any rate.
James X. MCGUIRE, former mayor of
Syracuse, n. Y, is the most import
ant of group Of Tammany politi-
clans and contractors, indicted by a
New York grand jury for grating in
connection with oil and asphalt con-
tracts from the -state of New YcIN
The grand jury action is direct fp-S
suit of the Sulzer charges and expos
ures, the aftermath of the fight that
led to the deposition of governor and
the overthrow of an organization,
nominally political and Democratic
but more essentially dedicated to the
acquisition of the profits and perquis-
ties of dishonest bargaining in poll
tics. For Tammany, while claiming
to be a political body, was slways,
through its leaders, more vitality cor
cerned in the graft of contracts al
franchises than in any high principle
of political honor.
John Purroy Mitchell is mayor-elett
of New York because in his own act
tive and personal way he broke the
ground for what the grand jury is
doing now. Years ago he exposed
graft in the government of Americas
greatest city. He drove some big pol
iticians out of office and to disgrace.
He forced those who escaped his
structures to be honest with the peo-
pie. He served notice on all of them,
I big and little, that as long as he had
the power he would make them re-
spect the law and integrities of pub
lie office and hold them responsible
for any corruption in their different
departments. His steps were really
the first in Importance in the destruc-
ton of Tammany autocracy, and the
abolition of the wholesale system of
graft that permeated nearly every bu-
reau of New York's city's admins
tration.
| Results are beginning to show with
fine satisfaction and with them the
disappearance of a conspiracy that,
in the name of political organization,
had fastened its clutches on the throat
of peoples government. 1t is in
evitable that from these results the
greatest benefits to popular control
must inure Every upheaval of this
kind is convincing lesson to the peo-
pie of their duty to themselves and
the communities in which they live.
For. as has often been demonstrated
successfully, the crooked politician,
the boss with the itching palm and
the organization under his domination
are all an overshadowing menace to
the freedom and prosperity of the
masses.
The jailing of Kueble, the Atlantic
City boss, and the indictment of the
} New York Tammanyites are the mile
stones that mark the progress of the
peoples final victory. Slowly but
surely the people are teaching the
grating politician that in politics al
in all things else, honesty is imdispG1f
ably the best policy.-Denver News.

The storm seems to be general

lilies who are without fuel and almost
