Sun Rises 81in Sets High Tide Low Tide lb 4:41 at 7: 16 at 2. 2-5 at 8171‘: Railways In is: 1:1. The report of the interstate commerce commission for the year ending June 30 1898, has appeared. W 9 find from it that in spite of. hard times nearly 5,000 miles of new railway were built during the year ending as above. This, it must bsrcmembered, was before the financial crisis had struck the country in full force. The report for the year ending June 30, 1894, will tell a different story. Then, too, the World’s fair last year will mount for the increased construction of cars and locomotive engines. The num- berofcars increased over the previous year by 58,854. Locomotive engines in- creased 1,652. The greatest increase in railway mile- age was in Washington state, 556. 22 miles having been laid there. West Vir- ginhmakes the best showing of any of the older states, having laid 36') 01 milk of track. In Kansas, Oregon. New Mexico and even the District of Colum-e , bisthere was an actual decrease in mile- rue. And we had at the date named 178, 461. 07 miles of railway 1n the Unitel ‘ States. 200,000 ' e mark. Very suggestiw to people not to invest in railway stocks or bonds is the report of the earnings and dividends of the roads. Operating expenses of the roads increased nearly $47,000,000 over the pre— ' viouayear, while the sum available for dividends decreased nearly $5,000,000. 0! the total railway stock of the coun- try, 81.24 per cent paid no dividends at all. Of alleged interest paying income bonds, 82.50 per cent paid no interest. The railways of the country have debts mating much more than half of all the value of their properties. The saddest chapter in the report is “dealing with the mortality of rail- way employees. Of these there were, are rapidly nearing the l ' 000 a year The result of the labor tronblss and Ale mobs and riots of July, 1894, will he to force arbitration upon employers and employees whether they want it or iot. There will no longer be learned liscnssion and arguing the logic of the thing. The logic of events has decided it. Labor wars in the United States lhould be settled» new, ones for all. l‘here must never again be witnessed luch scenes as the American public has beheld recently. Ever since the Home- ltead riots two years ago there has been in uneasy, silent belief that the worst had not come even yet. Undoubtedly :he worst has come in the summer of 1894. Governor McConnell of Idaho struck the current of public opinion when he telegraphed President Cleve- land suggesting that there be recom- mended to congress the immediate pus- ;age of a law making arbitration com? pulsory in all cases of difference between employers and employed who are con. named in the transportation business. Public sentiment demands this law. Transportation companies or those who manufacture the means of transporta- tion are not private corporations, it is :laimed. 0n them depends the life and zomfort of community. While in Cali- fornia fruit was rotting in the cars and those who produce it are being ruined financially because of the want 11’ the money they would have obtained for it, in some parts of the cast there was a fmit famine. The little sup— ply of California fruit was soon ox- nausted, and the native supply was ut- terly inadequate to the demand. The people will not permit this state of things to come upon them very often nereoftcr. They declare that they them- selves have the largest interest of all at stake in such strikes as this of July, and that they are the cries to judge whether there is anything to arbitrate. Thero- ioro the call that is made for the com- pulsory arbitration law. Such an enact- ment already exists in some of the Aus- tralian colonies. Tammany. For its running expenses, interest on its debt, sinking fund and other pur. poses New York city disburscs annually nearly $89,000,000. On its pay rolls, from mayor. schoolteachcnl and police- men to street cleaners, are an army of 15,000 persons. All this money is dis- burscd, all this army is controlled, by the party that is in power politically. This is Tanunauy, a political party to itself. The hand that holds the purse strings is the power that rules the world. Tho fact that for more than 20 years Tammany has had control of New York's purse strings shows better than anything also the prover of that vast organization. It is held together by patronage. If a labor organization could hang together is Tammany has done. it could move the pillars of smimy, It could and would llOli together it getting $89,000,- $41de on it. There is one salary of $.11, 000 Fif- teen other persons get $15, 000 a year such. The police department alone employs about 4,000 men. Tammany votes itself good salaries. Its police jus- ticos [gt-t $8, 000 a year, which is more than a majority of the governors of tho state-s got.

The Roman revolt has been ascribed to 21m hatred of foreigners among the people if that country. It now transpires, how- ever, that it was caused by actual pov- erty and starvation.

The scheme' Is one to secure coal without psvlngs large profit to local dealers. By paying a certain sum week- ly during the summer months a fund is established to purchase coal by the car load at the lowest wholesale rates and when winter comes each member of the society may draw the quantity of coal in proportion to the amount he has piid 111. Tue plan has been in successful Opera— tion in Philadelphia and several other cities. Its object is to benefit the poorer classes particularly, for upon them the burden of expense for fuel comes most heavily because they buy by the bushel or quarter ton and of course must pay rates considerably in excess of those charged by retail dealers to cuutomua who buy one or more tons.

It would be Imrdu-r to my what women are not doing these days than what they are doing. for tin ir ambition has become as boundless us work itself, and there is hardly an industry. or a profession, or an ofllce of any kind whore their persever- lng presence cannot be found. Woman has by her own deserving offal-tn become man's competitor, even to the very thresh- old 01 equal rights, and hammthroned her self within the very sanctuaries that were once sacred to man alone. But it must not be thought in conse- quence of their wider fluid that woman's hand has lost its cunning for womanly employment and womanly arts, and that her interest fing- ln the ever particular sphere of domesticity, for such is not the case. Never before in the history of woma unkind has her own exclusive work re- ceived so much attention or rtmchml such a state of perfection. A visit to the women's exchanges and demmtive art rooms furnishes a revels- tion.
