MAYOR EDWARDS,

After serving two terms, four years as
Mayor of Edgefield, DR.. John G. Edwards
will retire from that Office voluntarily and
turn the town over to his successor and a
new council. He is q native OF Abbeville
and q citizen of Edgetield by adoption,
where he found his wife. For a number Of
wears he has been successfully pracuicing
medicine here and he is the county physi-
| clan. He is a young man with many years
vet to live in the natural course Of life.
1t is nothing more than justice to say Of
Mr.. Edwards, that under his administra-
ton as mayor, Edgefield has been better
governed than ever before in it's political
history. There has been better order, and
a marked decrease in the matter Of the
illicit sale OF whisky. Besides, improve
ments in the town have been steady
and as great as our limited finances would
permit. While the credit for securing the
electric light plant cannot be given to Dr..
Edwards individually, it was established
during his administration, and met with
his entire approval from the beginning, and
as a he forwarded the enterprise
to the best of his ability. -Edgetield-

A SATISFACTORY RATE DECISION.

With the settlement of the question of railroad
rates all uncertainty removed and the railroad COM
panes may go ahead and do their part in bring
ing about normal conditions in business 1t was
very largely to the tactics of the railroads in
suspending improvements and making wholesale
discharges of hands effect upon public sentiment
that there has been business depression. They can
now make up for lost time and give an impetus to
business.
The decision by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission is perfectly fair to the railroads and just
to shippers. 1t in fact unthinkable that $5OOOO
600 annually of increased income should be given
to the railroads while they were extending special
and discriminating favors costing them many millions
year. which they had right common carriers
to give Practically the unfavored shippers have paid
this freight.
It is gratifyngly evident also that the commission
yielded neither to the literary campaign waged in
favor of rate increase to official influences at
Washington Once it has been demonstrated
that in the Interstate Commerce Commission, the
majority of the commission, the country has trust
worthy guardian of its interests in its relations with
the great transportation companies.

THE NEED OF A BOSS

generally considered by the profess
sion to be very dangerous infec-
ton, although, when once inoeulated,
the germ is liable to remain latent in
the system. with an occasional mani
Hesitation near election time.
The only known specific for the
malady Is to thoroughly subsidize the
afflicted with public pap" Gently
lead the patient to the strong box of
the city's finances, and the Journal
istic disease called "bossitis" will be
eradicated. 1t will vanish as quickly
as mosquito larvae when subjected
to a bath of crude petroleum
The city has great-almost stupen-
dous-projects for improvements I'M
der way The present administra-
ton stands sponsor to the people for
the faithful and efficient perform
ance of this great work. 1t would be
calamitous, suicidal, to the city's in
terests to bring about radical changes
in the administration of our affairs at
the present time. At no time in the
history of Newark has the need OF
the "boss" been so obvious.
Let the bosses attend to the pre-
liminaries of the approaching con-
test, and by their decision we will
abide and march in solid phalanx to
the ballot box under the banner of
our splendid Democratic organiza-
ton, and attest, by the majority We
give, our approval of the best adj
ministration Newark ever had.

Editor of the Evening Star:
Dear Sir--In all the Industrial
departments-mun or private
in a great city like Newark, thou
sands of workmen are busily en-
gagged, all under the guidance of a
boss"
The boss is as essential to the exc
cution of good work, faithfully per-
formed, as steam is to the locomo-
tive hauling a train.
The same rule applies to the po-
litical as to the Industrial de-
partments. The great mass of voters
who make up the rank and file of the
splendid Democratic organization of
Newark are too busy to give any
more than passing thought to the
routine workings of their party. They
are willing to leave the political man
agement to the boss They con-
fide in him and believe that the po-
litlcal machinery will be so adjusted
as to give the best possible results
to the administration of affairs of our
great city, in which they take a civic
Pride. And this confidence Is fully
sustained and attested to by the sub
stantial majorities the splendid DEM
ocratic organization is able to main =
tain.

tions approaches, the astute Sunday
Call and its more whimsical neigh

THE ENTHUSIASM IN EUROPEAN CITIES.

There is enthusiasm for in all the great cities
of Europe Crowds fill the streets and cheer the
gods The glamour of the military uniform the blare
of the buge and the tramp of armed men intoxicate
the masses of people. How will it be little later?
We had such scenes in cities and towns in
SCI after Fort Sumter was fired on. Crowds surged
through the singing patriotic airs the theatres
witnessed stirring scenes and in every public place
the war sentiment was rampant. But a change came
when people realized the meaning of From the
batiefelds the professions of the wounded and
sick and the corpses of of the dead. The spec
tace sobered the popular sentiment though did not
abate the determination to fight the war to finish.
In hundreds and thousands of homes there was
mourning for the dead. The hospitals were crowded
and their flags always at half-mast

pean cities will continue to rejoice in that is
destined to sweep off hundreds of thousands of brave
men, make widows and orphans all over the land,

Vicomte Lovenjoul devoted life
time in collecting manuscripts,
printed matter and works relating to
Balzac, Gautier George Sand and
De Musset, and for documents of
reference on these authors his coll
lection is unrfvaled. 7ksi
He began collecting these docu-
ments before reaching his majority
Belonging to one of the Oldest fam
lilies of the Belgian nobility, with a
large fortune at his disposal, he
turned his back on society and
entered the Career of a collector.
This career in middle and late life
attained the proportions of a grand
passion.
His money enabled him to have
agents ever on the lookout for the
slightest memorandum, notes or for
gotten articles by the authors but it
was often through his individual eff
forts that rare finds have been made.
AS an illustration, here is a story
of the rescue of Balzac manuscript
which just escaped the fire:
Countess Miniszech, who died
few years ago, had many valuable
documents and manuscripts among
her collection of books. The
collection was scattered at her
death, being divided among her rela-
tives This division received no pub
licity. but Vicomte Lovenjoul heard
of it. Knowing, that she had some
treasures in the way of manuscripts,
and realizing the carelessness OF SER
wants at such a time and the cons
fusion of people in charge, he feared
for the safety of these precious docu-
ments.
On making inquiry he found that a
lot of rubbish had been thrown out
"just old papers," Counting on his
knowledge of French thrift among
the little shopkeepers-th Paris shop
keepers have pet economy, and that
is to press into service any kind or
paper as long as 1t is clean, thus saw
ing an expenditure for wrapping
papers-Vicomte Lovenjoul did not
lose a moment in securing all the
shops in the neighborhood of the
home of Countess MinisZech.
| After a microscopic search, mirac-
ulous as 1t may seem, the persistent
hunter saw in greengrocer's some
twisted paper in the form of a cornu-
copia ready for use, and there he
recognized in the faded ink the we'll
known handwriting of Balzac. This
manuscript is now in collection.

Russia's Designs in the Far East.
From a st. Petersburg Letter.
For long time the Russian pres,
has been agitating for energeti
measures to be taken by the Russian
government in East Asia; this policy
has been especially insisted on by the
Nationalist Moscow newspapers. The
Golos Moskwy is strongly in favor
of the annexation of Northern Mai
churia, regarding this as the only
available method for effectively coun-
teracting Japanese advances.
Affairs in Mongolia, especially the
out and out failure of Russian Indus
trial endeavors in this district, are
being carefully followed by the Rus
sian papers, and commented on with
great bitterness.
OF late the chauvinistic tendencies
of the Moscow press have made
themselves very conspicuous, partic-
ularly in connection with the journey
of the Russian Minister of War to
the Far East. Utro Rossiil, an infiu-
entail newspaper, gives great promi-
hence to this particular question. An

Although in the earlier years Of
the professional life of William M.
Evarts he was thought to be one OF
the most industrious lawyers OF the
New York bar, yet in the later years
of his life he gained the reputation
of having learned the high art OF
taking things easily and not over
burdening himself with work
Some of his professional associates
attributed this disposition TO relax
somewhat to the fact that Mr.. Evarts
had accumulated a vast store OF
legal learning, and, incidentally, a
really marvellous knowledge OF the
political history of the United States.
not meaning by that the history OF
partisan politics-although of that
Mr.. Evarts had a mastery under
standing which reached back as far
as the presidential campaign of 1S40.
l had heard when in Washington in
the early eighties that Mr.. Evarts,
when secretary of state in the ad-
ministration of President Rutherford
B. Hayes, had resigned himself to a
condition of delightful leisure and
contemplation and that he had COM
mitted the chief work of the depart
ment to his subordinates, and
especially to his chief clerk of the
state department.
John Bassett Moore, who is beyond
compare the highest authority upon
state department matters, having
served in three different administra-
tons in responsible posts in that de-
partment and having examined
almost all of the archives, explained
to me year or two ago why it hap
pened that William M Evarts. when
secretary of state, was thought to
take things with remarkably easy
composure, never permitting himself
| to be overworked.
Mr.. Evarts," said Mr.. Moore, was
admirably fitted for the management
of the state department. He pos
