Some from the fact that they are of a naturally dominating spirit, and others they really think that no -qne has the right to dispute their conclusions. We are glad to state that very few of this class of people ever get into-politics. It’s bad enough as it is. 444444444 44 HE CONFERENCE of Boer leaders with Lord Kitchener can only have one object in view, namely, the making of peace. It is to be hoped that some agreement may be reached that will cause.a cessation of hostilities, for the civilized world has watched with unspeakable sadness the heroic but hopeless struggle of the Boers against overwhelming odds. The war.is abhorrent to the enlightened sentiment of humanity, and while it was not an unnatural outcome of conditions which had long caused secewwea .

If successful the player so caught becomes “it” for the next game. Ae In much the same way the Democratic party is seeking and that it will blind is a fact. The public holds that these railroads paid very little attention to it,cared very little for it, when they had everything their own wey. And, now that they are in trouble, and appealing to the public for sympathy and help, trat same public is shrugging its shoulders, but ever looking with a kindly eye upon the strikers, This strike should already teach this ries isa generous treatment of the may lie in its power to please the peeple, a determination never to put itanger them. i Popular favor is the best etock in which any pablic corporation cau invest.

ADIES of high social position in the four cities of New York, Philadelphia, Boston and Chicago have commenced a systematic agitation for the repeal of the/street and to see the street void of the ~ Jaw taxing the personal clothing of Americans returning from Europe. Republicans who bear in mind the effective electioneering of ladies to secure the repeal of-the tinplate clause in the McKinley tariff admit the force of this movement. The anti-tin-plate-tax agitation came from the wives of workingmen, while the agitation against the personal baggage tax comes from social leaders, but the inspiring influence is the same in both cases. The wives and daughters of workingmen objected to the increased cost of tinware, aud the social leaders object to the increased cost of their clothes. The McKinley law taxing foreign tin plate has been justified by results. It transferred the tin-plate industry from Wales to the United States, but the women brought about the repeal of the law before it had effected: its avowed purpose. There is one point of difference between the two agita‘tions set in motion by women. The ingrease in the cost of. and the damage to busiv tinware. reached every household in the country, while the tax on the personal clothing of women only affects women who occasionally go to Europe, and of these, only those who can buy largely at reduced ‘prices their costly clothing: in Enropean cities: It is not supposed that ladies who never expect to “do” Europe will take a-very. lively interest in the trials of those who regard the European trip as’ an annual diversion. It is of little use to tell these social leadérs that the tax on personal clothing only subjects them to the tax burden-that ladies bear who buy imported goods in the home market. These social leaders have made up their minds that the tax is unjust, and they propose to agitate until it is That there isa very general kindly and almost affectionate feeling among all for the men who work as motormen. and conductors on street rail~ roads can not be denied. And it is right that this should be. Asa class fal to their trust. In winter’a cold and in summer’s heat, by day and by place in ite heart for these men. So that the strikers have immediate-' strong pointe at that, in the general esteem—one point they win through .jthe unpopularity of the roads, the other because of their own popularity. And they have strengthened those two points by the acts of their leaders and the orders so far issued. The strikers have materially enhanced their position, by the instructions given them by their leaders to help pat thecars back in the barns, and that the strike shall be conducted by: peaceable and orderly methods. A correspondent has the following to say about the strike: It was a strange sight to look along Market heavy car traffic su usual, at this time of the year. There were all kinds of vebicles hastily. called into requisition —tugales, carryalle, -omnibuses, grocers’ wagone—in fact, almost avy kind of a vehicle that could be drawn by horses. ; Some, carried passengers for hire, and all did athriving business. Everyone seemed to take the situation good nataredly, and from ali conversations one could hear along the way, the sympathy seems almost in ail cases to be io favor of the strikers.

A Strassburg aeronaut says he has geen an eagle at the height of 8,000 yards, and again a pair of storks and a buzzard 900 yards above the sea level. On March 10, 1890, some aeronauts observed a lark flying at a height “of 1,000. yards. On July 18, 1899, another palloon met a couple of crows at an altitude of 1,400 -yards. These, however, are exceptions. Birds are hardly ever seen above a height of 1,000 yards; even above 400 yards they are not frequent. A Relic of Peter the Great.
