RAILROAD WATERFRONTS.

A matter Of much comment al the present time in connection with the breaking up of the railroad system in New England is extensive waterfront possessions which are held by the New Haven road. It is unquestionably true that the railroads do own a great amount of waterfront facilities and that such are highly important factors in water transportation, but if does not necessarily follow that because they are m possession of such advantages that they should be forced to give up their water lines Such would be an unjust method of attempting to regu- late the railroads
 If t is found that the retention of whsrves which are really unnecessary 70 the conduct of the present business of the railroads and the water lines, is a means of blocking competition lt Is reasonable that action should be taken to prevent such control from in surfing the water lines a monopoly of the transportation business It is not demanded or asked by New England that the government shall uphold a monopoly or that it shall do anything but render justice to the existing lines and the business of New England. but -' is Ati''iSteAt upoH the point that aC- ton should not be taken which is go- ing to result to the detriment of bus mess akld transportation and prove of benefit 10 no one. The railroads have done much to improve docking fa ciI- 1ues. If they have more than they actually need regulation may well be directed against such a monopoly with adequate return therefore, but that does not call for the divorce of the Sound lines

THE BATTLE OF TORREON.

This country Is particularly inter ested in the impending battle of Tor reon and therefore the smaller skir- mishes which lead up to it. This promises to be a test of strength for the forces of Huerta and Carranza. and upon II hinges much as 10 the future of the present state of affairs in Mex leo If the fsdera.ls succeed in check ing the const1tutionalists 1t will be the rrst serious setback which they have received, while the success of the army directed by Villa would be a crush Ing blow to the government of Huerta This Is fully realized by all concerned Extensive preparations have been made for Q decisive battle and all who are in any way interested in the reestab- hshment of proper conditions in that republic are watChfully waiting It is of particular importance to this country in view of the determination that Huerta's government will not be recognized It will be the success of the rebel army which will contribute most to the support of the United States policy because of the weaken ing effect which it would have upon the present dictator's control.
 The fall of Torreon would not neces- sarily mean the overthrow of the pres ent government, but it would have a powerful influence in that direction. IL would mean the invasion of a ter ritOry which has seen little fighting and would be likely to be the begin ming of a disastrous slump for Huerta IL would be t,e opening of the gateway to Mexico City.

i The old, long clock in the corner
 struck the ha1f-hour after two. A wo-
 man looked up with a start as though | she had been dreaming. She sat witt her hands loosely clasped and her eyes l fixed wfstfully on the flames and glow l ing embers of the large, open fire ] place and every now and then she | raised her head and listened. 1 Outside was the stiffness of an Aus l tralian night, in which no sound was heard but the bleating of the sheep and the hoarse. rasping cry of the wild hog, Not a breath stirred not leat rustled; Nature slept.
 Suddenly she Jumped up her body tense and alert, and went to the door of the cabin with nervous haste. Shad- ing her eyes with her hand, she look ed across the plain, eagerly. search ingly, then with Stified sob went back ing to the next room, she called to her husband.

 She slipped her arms about his neck, then pulled him to the window.
 Look at that over there! You'd bet ter get your revolver and go to the woods. It won't be me they're after. You'll have to hurry. Dave"
 She was right. Afar off could be seen little rings of smoke rising spiral like towards the heavens. They had seen that smoke before. It was the bush-rangers. It was inposSibl to get away before they overlook them. Scavengers of the honest laborer's s goods and the miners hidden gold. they had become a terror to all the surrounding country. All that could be done must be done in short time and quickly, too
 George! It looks bad, glrlie. It's those confounded bushrangers. They'll be on us in less than a half-hour!"
 She clune to him, fear written on every feature of her pretty face. ''What'u I do with the boy, Dave? They won't touch him ?''
 The fathers troubled gaze wandered to fair-hafred boy of about eight years of age and his eyes giittered like steel at the thought of harm cefn- ing to him. Then a slow smile illum- ined the rough features and he laid q light hand on the lads shoulder.
 Never you fear, little Mother They won't touch you nor him. It's me they're after-and the nuggets. I'll take them with me" and suiting the action to the word. he kheit down and removing some of the bricks from the side of the fireplace he took cut three good sized bags heavily weighted with the gold nuggets.

THE PARIS TRAGEDY.

There is nothing which is apt to develop more bitterness than a polit- icaI feud and too often is no limit recognized in a determination to carry the day The shooting down of Gaston Calmette the editor Of Paris news paper in cold blood by the wife of M. Caillaux, French minister of finance is an illustration of the ill considered action which characterizes such af- fairs though happily most of them fail to reach this extreme. The trag- edy is one which stirs not only France but the entire civilized world The murder was a well plannel climax to a fiery combat which has been in progress for long period. The news paper through the attacks which had been made upon the French minister had been the cause of great annoy ance without seriously affecting his standing in the government It was leaving no stone unturned, regardless Of the method employed to influence opinion for the defeat of the income tax legislation which the head of the department of finance was urging. It attacked the sincerity of M Caillaux and sought to prove it's position by the publication of private correspond efsce a dozen years old, involving Mme- Caillaux. which caused her to display the bad judgment through the course which she followed.
 Improper consideration was given to the consequences However unjusti- fled may have been the editor, equally so was his end. and interest now cen ters about the struggle to escape the payment of the penalty. It has inten-' sified public concern in the feud as nothing else could have done.
