It will probably never be known defi
nitely how many persons lost their
lives in that Colorado train wreck of
the other day. Many of the bodies
were swept away by the raging flood
and may never be recovered. And
there is nothing to show how many
persons the train carried nor who they
were. This condition has led to the
suggestion that through passenger
trains keep a register of their passen
gers, the same as Steamships do. On
a steamship the name of each passen
ger is known and recorded. When an
accident occurs the name of every pas
senger is available and oan thus be
accounted for among the dead, saved
or missing.
The Goelet Jewelry mystery In New
York bids fair to take a sensational
turn. A story now appearing In the
New York papers is to the effect that
the missing $200,000 worth of gems
were not found in the safe at Mrs.
Goelet’s residence, but In the safe of
a big Jewelry house, tvhere they had
been placed by a prominent young so
ciety man who had secured a large
loan on them. This young society man,
it Is further alleged, had been a guest
at the Goelet house in Newport, from
which place other Jewelry has disap
peared .during the season. If these
things are true, it would appear that
a “Raffles" is operating In swell so
ciety in the two cities.
Information front the Far East Indi
cates that there was severe lighting
between the Russian and Japanese
fleets subsequent to the sortie ot the
former front Port Arthur. The sum
mary of results is not yet known, tout
it is likely that both ships and men
were lost in numbers. One Russian
cruiser, the Askold, is reported to have
arrived at Wooeung In a badly bat
tered condition, and a bulletin from
Japanese sources says the Russian
formation was destroyed by the at
tack of the Japanese ships. In all
likelihood the cables will shortly bring
leports of the greatest naval engage
ment of the war. It will be recalled
thait the Russian Port Arthur squadron
is said to have gone out under im
perative orders from Admiral Skryd
k>ff, who Is In supreme command of
the naval forces of Ruspla in the Far
East. It will also be recalled that
Admiral Cervera left Santiago harbor
under Imperative orders from ha* su
perior in command. It may transpire
that the fate of the gallant Russian
was similar to that of -the gallant
Spaniard.
TO THE CZAR, A SOX.
There was greater rejoicing In St.
Petersburg, and throughout Russia,
yesterday over ihe birth of a son and
heir to the Czar than there would have
been if Gen. Kuropatkin had succeed
ed in relieving Port Arthur. For
months the priests and the people have
been praving that the expected child
might he a son, born to the destiny
of becoming the Imperial autocrat of
all the Russias. The priests have
been especially earnest In their invo
cations since the Czarina some months
ago, changed her faith to that of the
established church in Russia. Pre
viously she had adhered to the Luth
eran faith of her father's family, and
the Russian priests had paused it to
he understood that the reason she
had become the mother of four daugh
ters and no son, ali the while the
empire was looking forward to a son
as successor to tlie throne, was be
cause she was not of the true faith,
ami high heaven had seen tit to pun
ish her religious shortcoming in this
manner. In deference to this opinion
on the part of the people, and possi
bly because she had come to believe
in the theory herself, the Czarina
about the first of the current year
renounced her old religion and gave
her adherence to the Greek church.
And almost forthwith Father John of
Cronstadt, one of the most powerful
priests in Russia, was assigned to say
special prayers for the birth of a son
to the royal couple. And now that
the desired event has occurred, the
power of the priests in Russia will
be greatly augmented.
Meanwhile the people and the sol
diers will be moved with anew en
thusiasm. They will regard the birth
of a son an the imperial household
as a token that divine favor has been
restored to Holy Russia and its rul
ing house. The soldiers will be apt
to fight with more spirit, and the peo
ple to pay taxes with more cheerful
ness.
Meanwhile, what of the little boy?
It is doubtful if a child in Europe
could have been born to more un
happiness. His lot, if he lives, is one
of care, anxieties, sorrows and re
sponsibilities sufficient to bend and
break even an Iron spirit. From both
father and mother the child will in
herit a disposition of gentleness and
a love of peace. But the accident of
his birth into the Russian imperial
household will make it impossible for
him to display gentleness or enjoy,
peace. The system of the government
that will be his in time demands that
he shall he trained as an automat and
to rule with a mailed fist, using force
always and mercy never. The new
baby- is heir to one of the greatest
thrones of the earth, to untold power
and incalculable wealth; but he Is
likewise heir to more sadness and sor
row than falls to the lot of the ordi
nary male child.
THE STATE BOARD AND EPI
' IJEHICS.
The health officer of this city doesn’t
seem to have much confidence in the
ability of the State Board of Health
to deal successfully with an epidemic
of smallpox or other contagious or in
fectious diseases throughout the state.
And his lack of confidence isn’t con
fined to the Board of Health of this
state. In fact, he thinks it is prac
tically impossible to deal effectually
with smallpox epidemics through state
boards of health. In his opinion the
national government ought to have
charge of such epidemics.
And there isn't much doubt that he
is light. At the recent session the
Legislature was asked to appropriate
SIO,OOO for the use of the State Board
of Health in stamping out smallpox.
In view of the fact that the infection
is in about all parts of the state, and
is in many other states, it is evident
that the amount asked for would have
been but a drop In the bucket, as it
were, in comparison with the amount
it would cost to stamp out the disease.
It is probable that the Legislature
recognized this to be the fact, and,
hence, refused to appropriate the sum
requested.
There is justice in asking the general
government to take jurisdiction of
contagious diseases that are likely to
assume an epidemic form, for it is
sometimes the case that it is respon
sible for their presence in the country.
There doesn't seem to be any doubt
among health officers that the small
pox that is now in so many of the
states was brought from Cuba by the
army. But even if the government
were never responsible for the Intro
duction of diseases It can handle epi
demics to much better advantage than
states can. It is practically impossi
ble to get adjacent states to act in
harmony in this matter. One state
will make appropriations for fighting
disease and another will do nothing
whatever to stamp it out. Hence the
state that makes war against disease
is always at the mercy of the adjacent
state that will do nothing for its own
protection.
Asa rule legislatures do not appre
ciate the cost of fighfing disease and
dealing with epidemics. Hence, it is
difficult to get them to appropriate
enough money to make a vigorous
fight when disease appears in epidemic
form. On the other hand the health
officers of the government have ample
funds at their disposal to do whatever
Is necessary to be done to check the
progress of the disease, and to get rid
of it altogether.
The objection to government control
of health matters is that the more the
states yield to the general government
the stronger becomes the movement In
the direction of centralization. If a
point is yielded here and there the
time will come eventually when noth
ing will be toft to the states—not even
perhaps the legislatures. That would
of course be the end of the republic
and the beginning of an empire.
A month ago it was announced that
the Tians-Stbei ian Railroad would be
doubled tracked at one*. That Indi
cated Russias determination to pro
long the war and win at any cost. Now
the announcement Is made that the
road will not be double-tracked. Docs
that mean Russia Is preparing to glv<
up the struggle and get out of Man
churia?
SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY. AUGUST 13. 1904.
THE PERSONAL ISSUE.
The New York Tribune, commenting
upon Judge Parker’s speech of accept
ance, says: ‘‘The whole speech is an
obvious attempt to force the personal
issue to the front." The Tribune must
be afraid of that issue; otherwise it
wouldn't have regarded it as being so
prominent in Judge Parker's speech. As
a matter of fact, however, there was
no reason for Judge Parker to attempt
to force that issue to the front. It
was there before he made his speech,
and it will remain there throughout
the campaign, and that, too, without
any effort on the part of Judge Par
ker.
The responsibility for its being at the
front rests upon Mr. Roosevelt. He is
unhappy unless he is at the forefront
on all occasions. He w-ants to be in
evidence whenever the opportunity pre
sents itself, and he manages to be seen
and heard, even when it would seem
to be more becoming in him to remain
in the background.
During the time he has been Presi
dent Mr. Roosevelt has succeeded in
making himself talked about more
than most other Presidents were ever
talked about. The reason is that he
has done things of the constitutional
ity of which there are grave doubts.
It was an unusual thing for a Presi
dent to interfere in a great labor
strike, except to preserve the peace and
uphold the laws. It was risky for a
President to encourage the secession
of a part of the territory of a sister
republic in order 'that this country
might get concessions it wanted for a
great public work. It was of question
able legality for a President to invade
the sphere of the legislative branch of
the government, as Mr. Roosevelt did,
when he 'put Union veterans over 62
years of age on the pension roll, there
by increasing the pension charge many
millions of dollars a year.
The Tribune must have forgotten Mr.
Roosevelt's record, or it wouldn't have
said that Judge Parker's speech was
an attempt to force the personal issue
to the front. It ought to have known
that that issue needed no forcing, cer
tainly not from the presidential can
didate of the Democratic party. If it
were not at 'the front Mr. Roosevelt
would certainly attempt to push it
there. He wouldn't be happy unless
he felt he was being discussed in every
newspaper in the country.
It seems to be admitted that he is
managing his own campaign. That
fact alone is sufficient to keen him at
the front. It is true Mr. Oortelyou is
the nominal head of the Republican
National Committee, but about every
day a statement appears in the news
papers that Mr. Oortelyou has just
come from a consultation with the
President, showing that the latter Is
directing the campaign.
It may- be that Judge Parker, in his
speeoh, hinted that some things the
President had done, and was doing,
were of questionable constitutionality,
but his evident purpose was to show
that the Democratic party didn't favor
so much personal government as Mr.
Roosevelt appeared to like, that it ad
hered to the old Democratic doctrine
of a government by the people.
BRYAN FOR SENATOR.
Mr. Bryan is making sure of his
election to the United States Senate
from Nebraska. He has succeeded in
bringing about fusion between the
Democrats and Populists. Fusion,
however, will not benefit the presiden
tial ticket of the Democratic party. It
extends only to the ticket for state
house officers and members of the
Legislature. The Populists will put
out an electoral ticket of their own.
Whether or not Mr. Bryan endeavored
to bring about fusion on the national
as well as the state ticket doesn't ap
pear from the dispatches which we
have seen. No doubt he will put forth
his utmost efforts to elect a Legisla
ture that will elect him senator. If he
should get into the Senate he would
likely stir up the staid and dignified
members of that body as they have
not been stirred in many years.
Mr. Bryan doesn’t seem to be taking
as much interest in national politics
as he did just before the meeting of the
St. Louis convention. Commenting on
Judge Parker's speech of acceptance
he says it is admirable on the subjects
discussed, leaving It to be Inferred
that it doesn’t go far enough to satisfy
him. He thinks Judge Parker in his
letter of acceptance should go mote
into details in regard to each of the
planks of the platform, and that he
should take particular pains to set
forth his views on the labor question.
That looks as if Mr. Bryan would like
Judge Parker to get entangled in la
bor question controversies. Judge
Parker couldn't, if he tried, say any
thing that would be acceptable to both
sides of the labor controversy. If he
lets the platform speak for him on the
labor question he will probably benefit
his cause more than if he were to go
into an elaborate explanation of his
views on the subject.
As Mr. Bryan is the candidate of the
fusionists of Nebraska for senator it
looks as if he would have to talk a
good deal of Populism in the cam
paign. If he talks Populism it is
probable he will not do much cam
paigning for Judge Parker. Imme
diately after the St. Louis convention
he said he was going to go into the
campaign heartily for the Democratic
ticket. It will be interesting to notice
how he will harmonize his Democratic
utterances with his Populistic views as
the campaign progresses.
Still another trust has been an
nounced, and it is one that will make
papas everywhere squirm. It is a trust
to control Paris fashions for women.
The public can get back ut the beef
trust by leaving meut off the menu,
but It can't do without the Paris fash
ions. The women must have them,
trust or no trust, and no matter what
the price.
Maryland's so-oalled Jim Crow car
law Is proving unsatisfactory. It has
been found that it can be made to ap
ply only to local passengers, and that
passengers front other states holding
tickets Into or through Maryland do
not come under the provisions of the
law and cannot be separated against
their will.
There is a jolly row on in the town
and township of Ferdinand, in the
state of Indiana, with regard to a
postoffire matter not radically different
from that at Indianola, Miss. It seems
Ifhat the Republican postmaster, of
the name of Wallemann, has appoint
ed a negro woman to be his assistant,
and the white people of the communi
|ty ‘are properly scandalized. Post
master Wallemann is a practicing
physician. The white people are now
saying that he shall not enter their
houses in his professional capacity, and
they are demanding that he remove
the negress as his assistant, and at
once resign his postmastership. Now
the question arises, what will Post
master General Payne and President
Roosevelt do in this Indiana case?
Will they force the people, the busi
ness men and voters, to accept the
negro woman whether they want her
or not?
Fie upon Gov. LaFollette of Wiscon
sin for a boor! He was in the capital
of Nebraska the other day for the pur
pose of delivering a lecture. Gov.
Mickey of Nebraska paid him a visit
of courtesy to bid him welcome. La-
Follette was in his room at the hotel.
When Gov. Mickey's card was sent up
to him he sent it back with the mes
sage that when he was ready to re
ceive visitors he would let the Govern
or of Nebraska know. Of course the
Nebraska man left in a huff. But it
is said that friends later got the two
Governors together when satisfactory
explanations were made. How- wholly
different was the Governor of Wiscon
sin's message to the Governor of Ne
braska from what the Governor of
South Carolina said to the Governor of
North Carolina!
The cables a d'ay or two ago brought
the information that a number of
Turks had been massacred by Armen
ians during the latter part of July-
Had the killers been Turks and the
victims Armenians, there would have
gone up a great howl, from one end
of this country to the other. But in
as much as the terms were reversed,
and it was only a lot of measly Turks
who were killed, by Christian Ar
menians, not a word in protest has
been uttered.
PERSONAL.
—Former Senator J. M. Thurston of
Nebraska was walking down Broad
street, New York, the other day with
a friend when his attention was call
ed by his companion to the more or
less undraped statuary recently placed
in front of the new Stock Exchange
building and of which there has been
some severe criticism. The Senator
stopped and gazed up at this work of
art for 'a minute. "Well, what do you
think of it?” asked his friend as they
proceeded on their way. “Do you see
anything about it to criticise?” “No,”
replied the Senator, laughing. “I don't
see anything to it. I should just call
it a plain everyday naked fact.”
—Both the King and Queen of Italy

ing, with one exception, begged to be
excused, the request being good-natur
edly granted. One, however, young and
lovely, ambitious for the favor of her
mistress, determined to go too. The
next morning at 6 o'clock the venture
some lady appeared in a gown with
a train, which, however, had been care
fully pinned up, scent bottle in hand,
and in high-heeled, thin slippers.

Cl BRENT COMMENT.
The Brooklyn Eagle (Dem.) says;
“Mr. Roosevelt has so hampered, or
has been so hampered in, the execu
tive office by his successful accom
plishment of a nomination for a sec
ond term that his opponent, who re
nounces a second term under any con
ditions whatsoever, will be placed in
a favorable contrast to the present
executive—or should be—by the thought
of the American people."
The Memphis Commercial-Appeal
(Dem.) says: "Judge Parker's speech
harks back to the best traditions of
American statesmanship. It Is worthy
to rank with the state papers of Jef
ferson, Madison and Cleveland. It Is
the utterance of an open-minded gen
tleman, who has nothing to conceal,
and no appologies to make; and more
over it is a statement of Issues that
cannot be challenged in any partic
ular for diverging from the straight
line of truth. Unless we are muoh
mistaken, its sincerity and the admi
rable temper in which It Is couched
cannot fail to impress most favorably
the great American electorate.”
The New York Post (Ind.) says: “The
speech makes It plain to all that Judge
Parker was the right candidate with
whom to oppose President Roosevelt.
The two men stand for antithetic
Ideals, and it is for the nation to make
its choice between them. It is Consti
tution alism versus Imperialism. It Is
law against impulse. It Is the mnn of
calm and poise and judicial bablt
against the Impetuous meddler who
leaps first and asks afterwards what
the law is, who violates a treaty and
things It defense enough if he says his
own 'sense of honor' was satisfied. If
Americans have got tired of all the fret
and sham of militarism, and the mere,
tilclous glitter of Imperialism, they
will turn with relief to Judge Parker.
But whether they do or not, he has
shown himself a man worthy of th?ir
confidence and their suffrages, and has
already wfrought a great work for his
country by pointing It to the things
which make lor its peace and true
grandeur."
Justice Vindicated.
The bicyclist from the city was
wheeling leisurely along the 'side path 1
in the outskirts of the little town, w r hen
the policeman, the only one the place
afforded, arrested him and took him
before the local justice of the peace,
says the Chicago Chronicle.
"What is the charge against this
man?” asked the justice.
"Vi’latin’ the ordinance, yer honor,
by ridin' on the sidewalk."
“What have you to say, young
man?”
"I suppose I'm guilty, your honor.”
said the prisoner. “But I didn't know
I was violating any ordinance.”
“Ignorance of the law exsuses no
one.”
"I know that, your honor, but as the
road was bad, and I saw other wheel
tracks on the walk, I thought it was
all right.”
"If the officer had seen the men that
made the other tracks it would have
been his duty to arrest them. I see
nothing to do but to impose a fine of
$5. as provided by the ordinance.”
“Your honor,” said the prisoner, “this
is the first time I have ever been
hauled up before a magistrate on a
charge of any kind, and I can't help
feeling that it’6 a hardship. I shall
not appeal the case, but I'd like to
have one chance to get off. I propose
that we flip a coin to decide whether
the fine shall be $lO or nothing. That
gives me one loophole of escape. What
does your honor say?”
The proposition seemed to appeal to
a sporting instinct latent in the men
tal constitution of his honor.
“All right” he said, after a moment's
hesitation. “I don't know any law
against that. You may flip the coin.”
“What shall it be, your honor? Heads
or tails?”
“Tails,” hazarded the court.
The coin was flipped.
His honor glanced at it as, it fell,
covered it with one hand, and extended
the other to the prisoner.
“I congratulate you, young man,"
he said. “You are discharged—on the
ground that this is your first offense.
But don't let it happen again.”
The bicycler went his way. leaving
the coin in possession of the court,
and nobody to this day, knows
whether it really fell tails up or not.
One Indian Was a Joker.
“It is a notorious fact that there are
but few humorists among the many
thousands of Indians in this country,
says a writer in the Washington Post.
And I therefore regarded it as a dis
tinction to have enjoyed the friend
ship of a red man who was a 'wag' in
every sense of the word,” observed a
former member of Congress from Ohio
the other day, in conversation with a
friend.
“The ‘wag’ to whom I refer was
known as 'Kickingberg,' and was a
Kiowa. He was a fine, handsome, and
tall specimen of Indian manhood. I
met him some twenty years ago in Ok
lahoma. He and myself became fast
friends and often dined together.
“I recall an incident in which Ktclc
ingberg played a part. It was an im
portant conference between Dr. Rose
of Philadelphia and a delegation of
Kiowas, and was held almost within
the shadow of Fort Sill. In the course
of his remarks Dr. Rose urged the red
man to follow in the steps of the in
dustrious white man—to get a piece of
land, till it, raise a family, and become
a citizen ot whom the community
might be proud. At the conclusion of
his remarks Dr. Rose announced that
he was willing to be interrogated.
“Kickingberg took the floor. He said:
‘Why don’t white men do as white man
says?' Raising his arm and pointing
to Fort Sill, he continued, saying:
‘Lots white men there got no squaws,
no farm —they carry guns!’
“Dr. Rose was dumfounded. It
would have been certain death to have
truthfully explained to the Indians the
reason for the station of the troops at
Fort Sill. And so Dr. Rose made no
attempt to answer the question, which
had a demoralizing effect upon the con
ference.
“A day or two later I met Kicking
berg. I inquired why he made such
a speech and told him he had done
wrong. He nearly went into convul
sions with laughter and regarded his
act as a great joke. Recovering him
self he said:
“'I know doctor could not answer
question. I know, same as doctor, gov
ernment keeps 2,000 soldiers at fort to
shoot us down if we don’t behave.’ ”
Their Routes to Heaven.
Some time ago Dr. Gott, now Bishop
of Truro, was traveling on the under
ground railway in London. One of his
fellow passengers w'as a religious man
of the aggressive type, always anxious
for the souls of others, but wearing
nothing in the way of a white tie to
make known the tact to the world at
large. Quoth the enthusiast: “Where
are you going to?" Dr. Gott, with
his gentle manner, answered: ‘‘To
Victoria,” to which his companion re
plied: “I’m going to heaven.” “So,
I hope, am I,” said the Bishop; “but
I’m going via Victoria.”
Smart Boy Knew.
The grammar class was discussing
the gender of the words “sun” and
“moon,” says the New York Tribune.
The teacher had spoken of how the
masculine form is supplied to objects of
strength and power, and the feminine
form to weaker things.
"But,” objected one boy, "the fire
man and engineer speak of an engine
as ‘she’ and ’her,’ and the engine is big
and strong.
“Who has anything to say about
that?” said the teacher.
“Maybe it is because a man runs
her,” remarked the smart boy of the
class.
The Tide of Time.
From the Chicago Tribune.
“All the rivers run into the sea;
yet the sea is not full; unto the place
from whence the rivers come thither
they return again."—Ecclesiastes i.,
7.
All the rivers find the sea.
And all the years, eternity.
The rivulets that Idles on
Where sigh the rushes tremulous,
Or laughs beside the flowered lawn,
Or flaunts the spicy calamus,
Or bretake and leaps and shouts and
brawls
With echoes from the farther hills,
Still hears the sea’s Insistent calls
And flows on as that calling wills.
The rivers of the varied moods
That sing across the singing plain,
Or in the forest solitudes
Chant measures In a somber vein—
They, too, hut answer th’at one call;
Or north, or south, or east, or west
The rivers Journey one and all
Dow n to the sea of peace and rest.
And from the sea the rivers rise
As from eternity the days—
Within the heart of time there lies
The rule of iheir appointed ways;
Within the heart of ttme each dawn
And golden noon and twilight gray
And every moment come or gone
Has known Its call to go or stay.
So all the smiles and all the tears,
And grief and joy live o’er and o'er.
And on the bosom of the years
Drift out from some eternal shore.
Rise out of that eternity
Which was, and is, and sh’all en
dure;
And what has been and what shall be
Knew, and shall know, that haven
sure.
All the rivers find the sea.
And all the years, eternity.

Impaired Digestion
May not be all that is meant by dyspepsia
now, but it will be if neglected.
The uneasiness after eating, fits ot nerv
ous headache, sourness of the stomach, and
disagreeable belching may not be very bad
now, but they will be if the stomach is
suffered to grow weaker.
Dyspepsia is such a miserable disease
that the tendency to it should be given
early attention. This is completely over
come by
Hood’s Sarsaparilla
which strengthens thewhole digestive system

IS YOUR COAT DUSTY?
You Probably Have the White Scab
of Dandruff on It.
If your coat or shoulders have a
white dust upon it, the chances are
that It is from dandruff. The only
wav to permanently cure dandruff is
to remove the cause, which is a germ.
Newbro’s Herpicide kills the germ.
Every toilet table should have such a
hair-dressing that contains also the
destroyer of the dandruff and hair
falling germ. It stops all Irritation,
keeps the scalp sweet, pure and
wholesome. Remember that some
thing claimed to be “Just as good”
will not do the W’ork of genuine Herpi
cide. Sold by leading druggists. Send
10c in stamps for sample to The

STRIKE WHILE
THE IRON
IS HOT.
(The Heat of the Tailor Makes no
Difference.)
That’s what does the business—
It stretches where you want the
fullness and shrinks in where you
want to get rid of surplus goods.
Of course, it takes knack and
training to do It right,, and our
skillful tailors never learned to do
it wrong.
We show a number of medium
weights which it would be wise for
you to strike while it’s hot.
