The Metropolitan Street Hallway company of New York during the past few years lmn spent nearly ten ier ) cent of UH yearly Income for Its legal expenses , including damage suits. Representative Smith of Iowa Is be ing annoyed by country constituents who Insist upon his procuring for them from agricultural departments the seeds of "seedless" tomatoes. The war department has Issued an order that no olllcer shall be chosen who Is less than live feet , live Inches In height. Such an order would have barred out both Napoleon and Phil Sheridan. ( i n.

Presi dent Ilahas done a great work In Mexico and while his government has been practically an absolutism It Is doubtful If the country was In con dition for a more representative gov ernment to be successful. Stock speculation In Germany Is under strict government control. Dealing im margins Is absolutely pro hibited niul so are dealings in "futures. " There is a penalty of fine and Imprisonment for any broker , speculator or other middlemen who buys or sells products of the soil , factory or mine except In the process of distribution. Yet Germany seems to keep up fairly well under It. Not one man in a thousand falls to Appreciate a good , comfortable nntl pretty home and still so few men among the many in ordinary circum stances do what they might to beauti fy their homes. If many of them would spend the time , money and energy which they use In chasing some will o' the wisp theory or political scheme on their homes , they would become things of beauty and joys forever. John II. Hammond , a mining en gineer who works for the Guggen heim Bros. , receives a salary of ? f > 00 , < 000 a year and they say they can well afford to pay him this princely sum They have invested millions on his advice und never lost out on a single proposition. Mr. Hammond started in life a poor boy but has made him self the most valuable man in the world from a standpoint of dollars and cents. A Calcutta dispatch says that th bubonic plague Is constantly Increasing - ing in India and In the presidency of Dombiiy alone 5000 a week are dying with it. One thing which makes It doubly difficult to check Its ravages is the fact that all life Is held sacror by the Hindus and whether It be n mosquito , a lion or a rnt , they wll not raise a hand against It. They are all fatalists niul bollevo that whatever fate comes to them was ordained fron the beginning of time. These beliefs lead them to accept without nn effort to escape from death in any form ant make the work of rescuing them al most hniKssiblo. ) A few of the recommendations Urn have been made for the improveinen of the battleships have been snmrnar Ized by Naval Constructor Robinson who has been on duty with the tlee from the start. Some of them are said to bo conflicting but others are possible of application Hen\y boa cranes are to be abandoned , the plac ing below decks of anchor engines changes in storage capacity , increase iiillnft. piilnrgoniPht of Iho conning tower to nn cllpl leal shape.

The object of this club Is the advancement of Portland. Oregon and the Pncltlc northwest. II IH the most progressive and aggressive specimen of community advertising on record. Its chief object IH to entertain the * visitor and make him feel at home and to furnish money with which to tell the world the at tractions of that section of the United States. Ambassador Jit-yen paid a tribute to American educational facilities when lie said American women were far lietter provided for In educational mat ters Hum those of ICngland. It Is Its greatest element of strength. While American women do not vole they \vert a great Influence In our govern- nental alTalrs. In this country a gov- rnniont of Ignorance would he a fall- ire. An educated government Is saf- > st , Wi > ure a fast moving and fast htnking people. We make up our iilmls today and tomorrow put our liilck judgment Into effect. Ilelng pilck thinkers It is of vast Importance hat we should bo trained thinkers. So thinks this great scholar in politics. The people of Missouri are exceed- ugly anxious to have their great river mproved so that It will furnish a good ivaterway between St. Louis and Kan sas City. The national government efnses to undertake these Improve- iients because of the freakish and restless disposition of the great middy. Improvements may be com- ileted In Its channel one year and the lext year this uncertain stream may iavi > wandered from its former bed , caving the costly Improvements use- ess and worthless. However , the state Is determined to have the river mproved anil if the federal govern- uent will not do It. the state asks per- nlsslon to do It herself. It is not a mere coincidence that wo men In this country to do the nest to bring about some concerted ITort to preserve our national re sources should be from Now York state President Roosevelt and Gov- rnor Hughes. In no other state in he union have the people been so wantonly robbed of the natural wealth .vhleh . should be their heritage. The larnessing of Niagara Falls , the selx- ng of water power through the Catskills - skills and Adlrondacks ami the wan ton destruction of forests have been so great in proportion to the size of the state and have worked to the letrlment of so vast a population that It Is ni ) wonder the statesman of New- York are fully aroused to the nation's criminal negligence. Postmaster Knotts of the New Steel Corporative town of ( Jury , hid. , Is not llnding his olllce a lucrative position. ! ! < took charge when the town had just begun to sprout , as It were , and II was a second class olllce. The town has grown so rapidly that the gov ernment has been unable to unwind red tape fast enough to keep up with It. Consequently Postmaster Knott has been obliged to add more clerks and expensive facilities to his olllcp and pay for them out of his own pocket as ( lie salary of the postmaster Is adjusted by the department only once a year. He is now running a fourth class olllce on a second class salary , and Is out of pocket over $200 a month. If this were a common oc curance there would not be such a scramble for Uncle Sam's post ofllces. There Is no reason why the people engaged In labor , in any capacity , on the Panama canal , should be pitied. The canal /.one is in so sanitary a condition that the death rate Is lower than among a similar number of people ple In the United States. The laborers both skilled and unskilled receive from twenty-five to fifty per cent more than they would get for the same work in the United States , while In addition to their salaries or wages they get a good dwelling furnished except dishes , fuel and light , free ; ice at one cent a pound , free medicine and medical attendance In their homes free club houses , churches and preach ers furnished by the government. He- sides all this they are sold food and clothing at cost which Is as cheat and often cheaper than it could be purchased In the states. SOM1C PHOGHHSS. The state department his made gond progress In the negotiation of nr Miration treaties , and It will ho but n short time now until all thu nations of the world shall be solemnly bound to submit to nrbltralon a largo class of grievances out of which formerly armed conflicts were apt to grow Of course the scope of these agree nients Is quite limited Nothing that affects the honor of the territory of any government will over bo made a subject of arbitration. No country can give thcso things over to the Iho beginnings of trouble only occa slotmlly He In those greater Inane * . Moru frequently wars arise from standing Irritation , which has prepar ed through many yenni , perhaps through generations , thu minds of both people for hostilities. In the end there la some grave Infraction on ono side or the other that really justifies and requires war ; but that Infraction would never have occurred , and this condition of latent Irritability would never have developed. If there hud be-on .some means of disposing of these trilling causes of ( inference that set 0110 people against the other. And It la this provocation to war that will bo removed by the establishment of a system of submitting all such minor grievances to an Impartial tribunal for settlement. Wars will not be ended. That desir ed end will como only whou the na tions of the world consent to a grad ual disarmament. The cruel and criminal system which now Minions the workers of every nation for the supiiort of a great military and naval establishment , under the pretense of keeping pace by being prepared for war , is actually what maintains war In the world. When we got snlllelont- ly civilized to agree to diminish our armaments and fleets annually , until they are adequate only for the pre servation of domestic order , then and not till then will the end of war bo in sight. WIU , IT UK WORTH TUB COST ? The eyes of the nation are centered on the cruise of its battleships. Never before has there been such a spectac ular scene enacted In time of peace by any American fleet. Never before has there been such a magnificent spectacle on so large a scale , not only in the nation's but in the world's his tory as this sailing of the sixteen mammoth battleships. Hut the cost of the trip islarge. . When they are figured up they will unquestionably run into figures that will seem stup endous. Some of the congressmen ire greatly disturbed over this feature ) f the trip and they are raising all sorts of objections to It , but they are the objections that are always made when the value of money is placed against the value of other things. It Is doubtful if the people will be equal ly disturbed. The American people ire willing to pay the price to estab lish some thing in the world's mind. If it is ever established , It will cost something and the people as a whole lire beginning to realize this. They realize that the United States is on the threshold of a new era in world iffalrs. It cannot he Isolated. Whether we like it or noj , It Is n. world power. For good or for 111 , this fact must be icccpted. This means that the world must ho acquainted with us and we must bo acquainted with ourselves. We want peace with all the world. Wo want nothing else. There is no way to demonstrate that power so quickly and so elliciently to so many different nations as by the trip of a splendidly equipped fleet of battle- skips. It will bo an object lesson that will Impress itself upon every port that Is entered. It will not be forgotten. It will command the re spect , the admiration and a feeling of wholesome fear such us lias never yet been felt by many people toward this nation. The best way to avoid war and trouble Is to show the world that you are ready for it and can promptly meet any emergency that may arise. This Is the great value of the trip. Hut In addition to this , it wilt enable us to understand our own weaknesses and our own capacity on sea as well as on land. In the drill and practice In handling the licet , the men on hoard the vessels wll como back to us thoroughly trained and ready to cope with any trouble , should It ariso. Without such an experience , they would be seriously handicapped. As to the wear and tear of the ships that is merely incidental , and it is a great deal better for them to wear out com manding the attention of the world than to rot out lying unused in our own harbors. It Is questionable if when history Is fully written It does not note the fitting out and sailing of the battleships around the world as one of the most justifiable and brll Haul events of the Roosevelt admin istration. The millions that it will cost are merely Incidental to the dignity and the exaltation that It will bring to the great republic which w < love. TO ADVKRTISB NORFOLK. The Norfolk CommercUM club through Vlco President Rotho. Is just now making plans fur an Industrial building up of Norfolk which ought to bo Immensely effective more ef fective , It would He-cm , than any other method of going after new Industries Advertising for Industries Is the plan that Is to be tried out. As the foundation for Norfolk's claim to new Industries , Is nothing more or less thai this city's advan tageous geographical location and alli ed advantages Placed before pcoph who have new industries to establish ( he-bo advantages must either win or lose for Norfolk And Norfolk people plo have enough confidence In the merit of Norfolk's advantages , to bo- Hove that , properly presented to the way to the new northwest must appeal to the Industrial Inventors looking for a suitable situ. It would seem , therefore , ( hat Nor folk's story , told forcibly and simply and truthfully , to ( ho right people , must gel Iho duslrod results. And adverllslng Is the most eff c live , the quickest and the unrest minus of telling that story to the United States. Indeed , any method of spread lug Norfolk gospel must be eulUtl advertising. And oxperloiico of nthir cities , together with a thorough luolt Into the situation , must cany con\u lion that publicity In the metropolitan newspapers or magazines will be he most effective method , In propmtlnn to the money that there Is to hi spent. Kansas City , Mo. , has recently con ducted a powerful newspaper adver Using campaign , In search of new In dustrles , using the largo papera of Chicago und New York. And Kansas City has had results from this cam palgn. It would seem that If Kansas City , already largo and wealthy as It Is , will talto tlmo out to go after new Industries , Norfolk could easily af ford , us much as this city desires new Industries , to adopt similarly aggres sive tactics. Things aren't gained without go ing after them. No business grows to Its fullest possibilities without adopting aggresslvo and persistent methods of gaining new business. And no city can attain to the greatest possible growth without aggressively going after every possible new Indus try. The Norfolk Commercial club may well feel self-assurance In advertising he advantages of Norfolk's location .o the world. For there Is no other city Norfolk's size on the map with the potential future that Norfolk can lalm. A glance at the map Is all that Is essential to support this state ment. Where , In this country , Is there i city situated as Is Norfolk , seventy- "ive and 110 ! miles distance from the nearest cities , and the literal gateway o a rich and fertile territory that Is rapidly settling up for a range of 200 and HOO miles ? Where , anywhere , is there a city more Ideally situated for wholesale Institutions than Norfolk , ivlth all this great growing Hold to bo supplied with every human want ? And more than that , from the agri cultural and stock country around Norfolk , there come those products from which dozens and dozens of manufactured articles might come. This country Is still young. Nor folk Is only now In Its Infancy as a gateway city , for the reason that the big rich territory to the north and west are only now beginning to de velop and settle up to their limit. A million acres of now homestead lands , right In Norfolk's tributary , are to bo thrown open to settlement very soon , meaning additional thousands of homes to bo supplied with the wants of every day life. There are railroads still to ho built. There Is virgin territory still to he tapped. People still allvo today can recall when Chicago was a village. In that mafvelons growth there ought to bo sulllclent answer to those who would have It that there are no pros pects for Norfolk ever becoming a city of size. Looking at Chicago's won derful development , ono might almost say that nothing Is Impossible in city building. And Norfolk's foundation for growth , the great territory out around , is just beginning to develop to that point which will warrant a real city lu Its midst here. It need not be supposed that people of tills great now northwest are going to calmly spend three days and three nights for the trip to Omaha and back , for the sake of answering the demands that always exist In any region for a largo metropolitan center of easy ac cess where can be had those things which It is impossible to find in the smaller town. No matter what Nor folk hopes for itself , the people of this big field are not going to be content not to build for themselves , In their midst , a city of Importance. And Norfolk , by virtue of Its Ideal railroad facilities and the great terri tory that Is tributary to this point as a hub , Is doHtlnod.Bomo day , to be that metropolis. People who came to Norfolk twenty years ago thought that Norfolk would have 15,000 or 20,000 people within a few years. Hut the foundation for those holies , the big field out to the north and west , had not boon develop ed. The railroads had not cone out Into that country. Homesteaders had not settled up those acres. The po tential future was there then , as to- dny. but the development had not made it ripe- for Norfolk's growth at that time. In twenty years there has been a vast development. The Northwestern has pushed from Verdlgre to Dallas. And it is soon going further. Gregory county , a s | > ot that Norfolk never heard of twenty years ago , has been brought close enough to touch linger tips. The great Rosebud reservation , In South Dakota , which was In those days out in the wilderness. Is today Just ovi-r the hill.

AROUND TOWN. "Free" speech will be the order of the day at Spencer on the Fourth. There's lots of make-believe. Some of the wlno cellars have nothing hut water In 'em. "Hut If Norfolk avenue was paved , they couldn't drive down HID stakes for the carnival show tents , " said ono man. Supposing wo had n city park on thu banks of the Northfork just north of the M. & O. tracks , and supposing wo wanted to play a nice quiet game of croquet today , high and dry but "what'a the use of dreaming ? " A true showman never complains of the weather. Ho Is a philosopher and as such Is in no way Inclined to quarrel with the Inevitable. And then there Is always the consolation that it might be worse. Oakdal" Is singing , "When your dam goes out ! " As one hist hope toward breaking this drouth , Norfolk Is thinking of trying a professional rainmaker. York Times : Col. Huso Is anxious to have the ladles of Norfolk "try-out" the "dlrectolre gown. " l uilon , New- York and Chicago are mortified to death over them , but they go all right In Paris , and why not. in Norfolk ? "Life begins wrong end to , " said a Norfolk man. "When you would en joy the circus , you can't go ; when you got able to go , you don't enjoy the circus. It's not the fault of the circus that's as good as ever ; It's the fault of the man. " A story being printed In Sioux CIO papers , concerning Norfolk , will be "newh" to this city. The story tells of a big "bank robbery which took place in Norfolk , Neb. . In 1885. " "Peo ple In Charles Mix county are en gaged In trying to locale the hidden treasure. " The only dlfllculty with the tale Is that Norfolk never had a bank robbery. It's lucky people's dispositions and Mkos are different. IClse how would the frontier over have been settled ? Up at I unro , S. 1) . , ono of the new Tripp county towns , there's an old stage driver who used to drive a stage In Iowa before the steel horses came. Recently he lived at Gregory. S. 0. , then Dallas. "My horses always were afraid of a train , " he said , "and -o when the railroad came to Dallas. I moved to Lnmro. " Like the prairie chicken , the frontier's pioneers , who Insist upon being pioneers , are being crowded .further and further west ward by encroaching civilization. And there's bomcthlug of tragedy In II all It won't be but a very , very short time before this quaint , unique type of man has been nltogelhcr elimin ated and absorbed by the Sfttlement that takes railroads with It.
