Eight Ihbhes Of snow tell. The Chicago Record-Herald gravely assorts that red hair will he a burning issue when Congressman Stanley stands, for re-election, because lit op posing the District of Columbia whip- plng-post bill he said If he saw a man beating a red-headed wife he would not Interfere, and red-haired women In Ills district are bringing every pos sible Influence to hear against his election. -I That there are lots of Yankees who : still hate the South and want to see the people of the South oppressed and I' humiliated on every, possible occasion, S. Is often mnde apparent by the titter, ranees of newspapers at the North. Here, for Instance, comes the Chicago . Chronicle with this bray: "We ouly regret that the presi dent. after calling off Father Sher man’s trip, had not sent a whole division down there to march back and forth between Chattanooga and Savannah for the rest of hts term." With so many sectional asses bray ing like tills into the ears of the peo ple of the North, more than forty years after the war between the North and ■ the South Is supposed to have ended, how long will It take to entirely re store good will between the two sec tions? THE RAILROAD RATE BILL IN CONGRE88. The newspapers of The Herald’s r clasB cannot keep up with the railroad rate bill, now under consideration In the senate, without trespassing too much upon space to be allotted to oth er matters of public Interest, but de velopments of Important significance crowded upon each other so thick and faBt on Monday that a review of them Beems practical la the limited space of a column. The course of events in the senate on Monday seems to warrant the con clusion that the so-called “Allison com promise,” which had the Indorsement of President Roosevelt, proved boomerang, and as a result Senator Aldrich, who was In charge of It In the absence of Senator Allison, who has been sick, was compelled to ac cept Important restrictions Insisted upon by those senators who have been fighting for a limited court review. Senator Allison himself appeared in the senate on Monday, and, threaten- lng to repudiate the amendment issued under his name, punctured the Aldrich "compromise" bubble, and, aided by the opponents to a “broad court re- view," forced the conservative sen a tors to accept provisions limiting the lower federal courts In their power to enjoin a rate set by the Interstate Commerce Commission. The not result of Monday’s dealings Is that In return for the amendment conferring jurisdiction oh olrcult courts to review orders of the com mission, friends of the bill, by agree ment of the senate leaders, will secure counter-concessions as follows: That no order of the Commission shall be-suspended or set-aside by an Interlocutory order or decree without a hearing had on the application there for, unless at least five days’ notice shall be given to the Commission of the time and place fixed for said, hear ing. That such order shall not be made unless two judges of tho court to which application is mndo shall con cur in such Interlocutory order or de cree. I That an appeal from such Interlocu tory order or decree may be taken Within thirty days from the entry thereof, but shall He ouly to the su preme court of the United States. That the rate-making section of the bilk shall not be amended. Another feature of Monday's strug gle over the rate bill, and one of much Importance, although overshadowed by the court review question, was the' adoption of the Culberson anti-pass amendment as a substitute for the similar amendment proposed by Sen ator Fornker. The Foraker amend ment was rejected because It did not seem to bo sufficiently .explicit in Its prohibition of free pnsses by inter state railroads, and because Southern senators feared that under Its terms the Jim Crow car laws of the Southern states might be interfered with. Significance may be attached to the fact that twelve Republican senators voted for the Culberson substitute with twenty-six Democrats, giving it total of thirty-eight votes. The Culberson anti-pass amendment prohibits the issuance of passes by roitds engaged in interstate commerce to anyone except clergymen and pau pers, and imposes heavy penalties for violation of the provisions.

By their action at the meeting of now on the statute books was thought Populist party leaders held in the of-1 lo prohibit free pnsses when it was flee of Judge \J. K. Hines in Atlanta i - yeBterday. these Populists have prac tically convicted themselves and Can didate Hoke Smith of having had au understanding of some sort by which the Populists of the state, numbering Ion. something over 23,000, were expected to form a balance of power and deliv er the Democratic nomination for gov ernor to Mr. Smith—and that, too, without the formality of renouncing their alegiance to the Populist party. The Populists, for their own part, evl- dentJy regarded Mr. Smith ns having entered upon a fight against the organ- Ized Democracy—“The Ring," he and they call It—and they thought they saw an opportunity to do something they had been trying to do for years, break up the Democratic party organ ization. Subsequent developments have demonstrated most conclusively that the Democratic Executive Committee tightened the party line none too enacted, but it has been a dead letter, partly for the reason that there was no explicit mention of passes in it. There can be no misunderstanding of the meaning of the Culberson provls Have you ever noticed that when men develops the symptoms of a po litical reformer he invariably sets his sights on a good fat public office? Who, for instance, would ever have expected to see Hoke Smith become a political reformer until the ambition to be governor of Georgia took hold of him? territory, has spread to Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Connecticut, and Is probably now on the road to New York, by way of the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad.

It was a bad hour for Massachusetts when Prof. Leopold Tfouvelotte, a Frenchman of science, came to live in Medford, where they make, or used to make the world-wide rum. Our Dry friends may think there is nothing worse than rum. They don’t know the gypsy moth. Nobody knew it in 1868, when the professor was experiment ing with it. He was going to Intro duce § new silkworm. Innocently he Introduced the gypsy moth. The wind blew down a netting over some bushes on which he was feeding some speci mens of this bug Attlla. Away they went. The professor warned the au thorities, feut nothing seetas to have been done, . The gypsy moth went gypsymothlng undisturbed for twenty years.
