The bulkhead which is being con- constructed by the Miners and Mer. chants bank In the rear of their prop erty and the probable construction oi other bulkheads along the sea front has suggested an idea which might bs carried out to the great advantage tc the city by securing better protection to property and in other ways bene- lifting the city materially as well az adding to It's general appearance. Il A thought by those who have looked into the matter that the buikheada W oh are designed only for the pro lection of individual property, which are only n few feet in extent are oi doubtless value or at least are of less value than a continuous bulkhead would be extending. say along the whole sea front. without a break in the structure.
 4 buikhead of fifty feet or less can- not be of as much value to the prop erty which it Is intended to protect as one extending hundreds of feet and which presents 8 continuous wall against the encroachment of the se1 during severe. storms.
 It has been suggested that steps be taken by the property owner and the city to construct 8 continuous buIkhead along tho city front. That such structure be laid out and con- structcd SO as to, as far as possible give continuous hulkhead of uniform structure and like the streets be lait out as nearly as may be parallel t' the Front street which would add no only to greater safety to property bu would also greatly improve the gen crai appearance of the city.
 It h pointed out that the cost o building these projections to privat property Is quite out of proportion t the protection secured and besides o doubtful value at such times as whe really dangerous storms threate property along the sea front.

"My interest m the Philippine isl ands from now on." says Dean C Worcester until lately an officer of the government at Manila. "is going to be a matter of dollars and cents"
 This conclusion Is strengthened by Mfr Worcester's admission that he i connected with a $6.o0o.ooo corpora ton organized to develop the Philip. pines with American money. His op- position to the presidents promise keeping policy in that quarter may be said to be grounded. therefore. not only dollars and cents and disappointed political hopes. but upon 8 lively ex. pectation of the good things that are to come if his big corporation ever gets under way with the right kind oj backing at Washington.
 What MT. Worcester and other lee" turers object to at popular prices oi admission is independence and homo rule ;yet in January. 1899. a few days after the ratification of the treaty of peace by which the Philippinc' were ceded to the United States, the senate in a solemn declaration an- nounced the purpose of this country to be to prepare the islands for self government. and to dispose of them In the way best calculated to promote the interests of ell concerned. This pledge having It's sanction in the dec laratio nof Independence. has ueer made again and again by republican, as we'll as democrats.
 Until now dollars and cents have prevented action. They are still pow erful. but henceforth another and ever more serious obstacle must be ever come. which Is the outraged feeling' of lot of republicans who have los their ofIices and taken to the iec:ur platform.-New York World.

mittee Working Carefully.

Washington, Nov. 16-With the
opening Monday Of the ~ federal re-
serve banks, the nation began actual
operation of its new currency system
designed to provide an elastic circu-
lating medium based upon modern
ideas of finance and economics.
1t has taken the reserve bank organ
ization committee and the federal re-
serve board almost IL months to work
out details of organization to the point
where an opening date was chosen.
Notwithstanding careful deliberations
which preceded every preliminary
step, the IL banks will not for many
weeks take up and exercise all the
functions bestowed upon them by con-
gress. Such evolution as will result
from the old national banking system
of necessity will in most respects be
slow. The reserve board, the guiding
spirit of the new system, is itself feel
ing its way over strange ground and
the men in charge of the IL banks
probably will feel the same desire to
work slowly and with sureness rather
than be venturesOme.

DIEAsEs EXPLAINED
Farmers Should BE Familiar With
Symptoms Of Disease.

Hitherto the United States has been
so free from foot and mouth disease
that comparatively few farmers are
ciate the seriousness Of the present
outbreak which has led to the quar-
antine by the United States govern
ment of large areas. In the United
States the disease has appeared only
on five previous occasions-namely.
1870, 1880, 1884, 1923 and 1908. OF
these the last two were much the most
serious, and the outbreak in 1908 cost
the United States department of agri-
culture $299,112 to stamp it out. The
disease is so contagious that if one
animal in a herd is infected there Is
practically no possibility of keeping
the others from becoming diseased.
Foot and mouth disease is defined as
ian acute and highly contagious fever
of specific nature characterized by
the eruption of the vesicles of the
mouth, around the coronets of the feet
and between the toes" 1t affects prin-
cipally cattle, hogs, sheep and goats
The germ of the disease is an organ
ism SO small that it can not even be
detected by the microscope. 1t may be
spread in one or a dozen ways-car-
ried on the clothing, in hay, straw,
fodder, conveyed by direct contact or
picked up from the ground over which
diseased animals have passed. First
indications are chill, which is quick
ly followed by a fever. In day or
two small vesicles about the size of
hemp seed or peas appear about the
mucous membranes of the mouth, on
the upper surface of the tongue, the
inside of the cheeks, on the gums and
the inner surface of the lips. These
vesicles contain yellow, watery fluid
and spread rapidly. Soon after they
first appear in the mouth the feet be-
come red, swollen and tender. This
is followed by an eruption similar to
those in the mouth.

The panics of 1893 and 1907
