He will carry with him into private life the personal affection of many thousands of devnler friends and tho respect and eMeeui of most of his for mer opponents. Nature has done much for ronnell jnik. It is time the city helped. Alcohol nnd Life Insurance. THK CHICAGO Record-Herald makes ;i point when it says that "tho plan recently in r.iiKiirated by u life in surance company in New York, to write policies for 'total abstainers' upon a different basis from that offer ed to users of alcoholic stimulants," if generally adopted by all of the bis? life underwriters In this country "cannot fail to become a Kieat power and Influence for temperance." Our con tHmpcnary believes that the other life Insurance companies will adopt the plan. It explains that "after an ox t'liderl study of mortality statistics for several years, supplemented by the testimony of medical .-cience. the com pany lia. finally concluded that tho claim that total abstinence conduces to longevity 110 longer admits of doubt, and it proposer, to Rive total abstainers the benefit of lower rates for life In surance." It adds Hint If the plan becomes the fi::ed poliov 0 life Insurance com paniesa thins; it evidently antici pates at 11 1 distant day "It will doubtless becoini- necessary to classify inks into total abstainers, occasional drinkerji and daily topers." It is easy to ree in such a case where the chief fer -e of Hie Record-Herald's prophecy of the new plan's Influence for temper ance will be. "Oivjirtnnni drinkers" will, in a lfirsp proportion of cases, take especial care never to allow themselves to slide down into tho "toper" class even If they have mi higher inlluenee holding them where by the policies they hold will become Hinted. As for the Insurance com panies, they hnvp a perfect right to protect themselve.s against had risks, in thi:. direction as In any other. The traction company Is to be con gratulated upon getting some new opn e;:r.s for the Nay Aug park line. That much used line hap had u long and nad probation with cars that should long nso have beer, admitted to the morgue. Ugjit nut! Power Resources. H HE GKNKRATIONnnd trans- niisMon of eloetriclty, for JL lighting and power purposes, f from water courses, though hut h (ew years known is already a enmmorjplacp tft thfr'npdnlo' of today, Thrte vn.s at least the beginning of ,1 scare over possible exhaustion of the world's foal supply, and, tl)e cotwequent loss, of that source of electric llRlu and power currents, when the orerrftus of them from river and smaller streams was learned, followed by successful experiments in Ions distance trans mission. Ah! a perennial, an Inex haustible source of supply! cry some. Yet it te not so, Jtec.klesa waste of nature's forces and bounty is Imperil ling that source of supply, ever inure and more. The springs and smaller streams,ills,aipe.iri uol by scores only but by iiumhed.' The rivers tun low, in manj1 cases with their beds for mora than half tho area of their width absolutely dry for months. We take from tho San Francisco Ar gonaut a recent notice, exultant in its tone, of soma transmissions of electric power, sained from rivers for long dis tances. The Argonaut's paragraph lg. nores the very conclusion it needed to draw for the reader. It chronicled "the test of the monster plant on the banks of th Mokelumne river, when a cur llunol Killing on Paper llMdlng .'.1 ,a;r. .l.w .17 .15 .!! . rent wllh n foire nf CO.OOO vnlin was successfully transmitted to H.tn .lose, tSI miles distant." Then it goes on to say; "Tho Incident iupiiiih that Hie portal lifts harnessed n power1 ptilllclent for lighting, etreet cars and fitctorles, which makes, or will nittke. (ho cities practically liHlcppnilpnt of either coal or fuel nil, While this lit the greatest trntiHtiilsHlon of electi'ic power In point of dlstunee, It Is not the only demon Htnitlott of Hip value of California's mountain streams ns n factor In the development and progress of the state. In the south a current of high voltage Is Kent eighly-llitcu tulles to tho city of Itedlands, and In Oakland a similar one Is doll vol od 110 tulles t'iniu the power house on I ho South Yuba river. With experlmetilH already made, piac tlcnlly assuring the transmission of electric power at least iOO miles, what possibilities tiro opened Up for the whole state!" 'flip l'hlladi.'lplila Ledger, one of the newspapeis thoroughly alive to the vi tal Importance of lCMtorlng this coun try's shamefully wasted forest wealth, and regarding truly tho actual signifi cance of the Argonaut's facts and ot many more like them, gives tho con clusion of the whole matter, which the Argonaut failed to see. As tho Lpdgpr gives warning: "It will be scon from these beginnings of a new era In the electric ago that the rivers and streams of the country assume an add ed Importance. When the rleinonatra tlon of the value of water courses has been made more striking, an It will bo with rapid strides, the subject of for estry In Its relation to the water sup ply will, perhnps, receive the serious attention which it deserves." This country cannot afford to keep on deliberately wasting its supplies of woods and water, the last of which, .is every new decade gives irrefrag able evidence, Is so dependent upon the (list. Recorder Ilmwii, of Pittsburg, has in striiPled his director of public safety to make vigorous enforcement of tho Blue haws. Pittsburg is evidently destined to have a busy season. For Chinese Immigration, '-F-'V"': nil.VKHK In the Fnitel States, it now appears, have come to the conclusion, from the modeiatlon of tho government In dealing with china simc tho Poxer outbreak, that the present is ,1 good time to endeavor to secure the repeal of the Chinese ex clusion law, and the throwing of this country wide open to Chinese immi gration. The Hoary exclusion law will ter minate next year. Congressman Kahn of San Francisco will introduce into the bouse ot representatives next winter a bill to extrnd the pro visions of that law for twenty years longer. The New York Tribune of Saturday leports an organised mnve lnet.t started anions the Jhines.! 11 or chants in that city to obtain Its entire icpeal. This movement was started only ,1 fe.v days ago, yet "within the next two weeks every one of the fifteen t.-umsnnd Chinese here, (in New ".nlv.i w'il 'jo asked to sign a tuipfullv pre paud memorial to the I'nited States governmint asking that the exclusion act bo repealed, and protesting- In the stiongrst terms against its extension till lie':'." Philadelphia Chicago. Port land. Seattle, San Francisco, and other cities having lar:;e Chinese conting ents will send In similar memorials all to boproonud through ."Minister Wu Ting-fang. Further, it appears that 'these Chinese already in America beli'.'vo that "thousands of Amerlnins are op posed to the exclusion act," and they propose to ask Americans to sign 11 petition to grant Hie Chinese free ad mission to tills country, This petition "Chinos" lawyers and students are now if.'awing up." The Chinese con sul general in New York, Chow Ts;: chl, has been talking very freely and confidently of the movement to tho New York Tribune, Ho uomplalui that the fhineso "want" very much to come here "to settle dowr and become property owm rs, taxpayers, and pos sessed of full sv.tt'r.ige." Yes, Ameri cans have known for a. good many years that the i'IiIuc-d "want" these thlngi, and they are piecisely tin! thirga Hint the majority of Americans In no wise agree with thrni would bo desirable: even though the.-e Now York Chlncs'e line sure .that manv thousands of Americans "waul" free admission for all the multitudes of Chinamen eager to come In to Ibis as "the laud of promlM" lor them. Consul chow complains that "Hungar ians, Poles, Hermans, Japanese and Irish can come In." The comparison of these immigrants with Chinese If. unfair. If the Japanese can come in at least they have not been, and ato mil now, eager to swarm in by the millions. Consul Chow declares that "Inllueu Hal Ainorlians in Hie South" tell him the Southerners deist re the ChiiVcse. "to come In and turn tlm great marsh es of the South Into rice lands, and in nlher paits to build up great tea-gardens." We very much doubt any such desire among Southerners In any num ber cither in "the Black Belt" or out side it. They already have one race problem on their bands. But tho New York Chinese are in absolute eat nest. ,a an organ of their movenment they have started a weekly iiowspaper, "Tho Chluo.so Weekly Herald." Through Its Inlluenee the organization of tho movement will begin in Chicago, during this present week, Tlin whole movement Is tho dollnlto result of the American record In China Mucc. the attack on the lega tions, Tho alarmists will not succeed in scaring tho country into a panic be causo Russia has begun somo tariff re taliation.

Whaf If Costs fo Do the Exposition .Ppeclnl r'orrepondcnce to 'Hie Tribune, Buffalo, N. Y Juno 2:i.-Yntl ran eomo to the expn.iltlon with reasonable pxppiitic, but probably you won't. Thorn aro a vast number of ways In which to ttpoiul money and they nien't diffi cult to Hud. If you mvc In one way, you arc apt to spend In another. If you don't take a Jlnrlklslm mid go Jolt ing over tho pavements with a swift footed Jap for .1 steed, you will prob ably buy an extra piece of foolishness from sonic nf the Intiiunerablo booths In the vat ions buildings. If you deny yourself the luxury of a luncheon at the American Inn, you will bo beguiled Into "Alt Nuremberg," whore you will pay from throe to five prices for things. If you escape the burning mountain In Hawaii, you will probably fall Into the arena of.llons which Frank Bostwlck Is showing. Jf you aren't caught by the bull light, you will bo drawn into the Indian village. But after all, thus" who have conces sions on the exposition aro tin more ex tortionate than they were at Chicago, and, In fact, the prlres are rather more reasonable. Tho conveniences of trans portation are better, the accommoda tions In tho city 1110 Just as complete and no more expensive, and the rates of admission to many of tho Midway features nre lower. The "Amerlcnn Inn" Is tho most popular restaurant Inside tho grounds, as Ihe service .Is excellent and the ac commodations are limited, Teoplo al ways throng wherever there Is limited room, and they will stand behind each other's chairs, and rush for places, and wait long for opportunities to pay 2." cents for a little dish of hashed brown potatoes, SI. 7.1 for a steak with mush rooms and 2."i oonlM for a few straw berries, with other things In propor tion. Bailey, the caterer, has most of the concession privileges of the grounds and while his prices are high in the handsome Stadium restaurants, at the lunch tables below stairs It is possible to secure cold dishes at very reasonable rates indeed. If you are not fussy about having a tablecloth and napkins, you will find delicious milk for five cents: sandwiches, of almost every variety, ten cents, and other things in proportion. With tablecloths thrown In you will pay double, If not licble, for the very same articles. But some peo ple are fussy about tablecloths. The buildings are fast reaching com pletion. No one need delay making plans now to visit the exposition nt any time, because of fears lhat they will Ilnd many details unlinished. Nothing will be missed, for work is being pushed by night and by day, ami tho evidences of chaos are very few. The Art nailery is now being thronged by visitors. It is a genuine surprise. All the rumors that it would be :, mediocre sort of affair wore most un fair, and ill-advised. It i.s a superb ex hibition. I wish to devote (several ar ticles to the pictures you cannot af ford to miss, to tho lovely sculpture .fid the excellent collection of original drawings. From the time your eyes meet tho great Shaw niemoilal at tho entrance until you have wandered thiough room after room to Ilnd no entl to the interest and charm, you will be glad of every moment you can spend there. It must be realized that the works exhibited are solely those of Amciicin ntiists. They Include the paintings which have beer, talked of in art ciicler. of two continents, and of newer artists who will be heard of in the next decade. But why on earth Hie selection of tho present site was determined for the art gallery passes comprehension, it is far on Hie outskirts of tin; grounds, in a spot which becomes tho center of the most Immortally sticky yellow mud that ever was gathered up by harmleps lYnnsylvaiilaii feet whenever it has rained, which is dally. The calalogues have boon Issued only by installments, apparently, as the first few received from tho printer were grabbed before Hie ink was dry. Yes terday it was impossible to beg, bar row or buy one at any price, One wo man actually abstracted a catalogue from the pocket of a man who hap pened to bo looking the other way, and there is not a doubt in the world but Hint he was the maddest individual in Buffalo when he discovered his loss, 'file ' dark blue pamphlets wore so scarce that it is ,i wonder he didn't spot the daring art f nthr.slast at once, "I simply had to have It," she ex plained to a remonstrating friend. "Tho selllsh tiling! He wasn't using it and didn't need it, and 1 did, How was 1 to know who painted tho horrid tilings over Hie doors'.'" Among the thing, which seem to In tel est people 011 tho Midway is the baby incubator, Tliis attraction has an excellent "shouter." If 0110 Is to judge by his earnestness. "Ready now, all the time going right along," he yells. "Hiving infants" (for which the list ener in thankful, as no one desires to view dead babies), "the most highly re niied, high elas.i, high grade show in the place, People of the most intelli gence always come here," and Indeed people do seem to crowd into tho place, whether they lay claim to lofty intelli gence or not. Ono small girl emerged manifestly disappointed. "'Taint fair." she was remarking. "Our incubator np home hatches out the little chickens. This Is 'milling but a coop with a teeny weenv baby Jp, It, that wen't laugh or nothing." II. U. P. Class Statistics Gleaned at Penn speiul ( orrcspomlcnie ol 'Ihe Tilhune. riiibilelphii, June 2J.

To Wage Earners and Others of Moderate Income To not spend your money foolishly because you have so little of it. mit save what you can fiom month to month and invest It in something that will multiply many fold. Tho mil lionaires of this section wore laboring nifti a generation ago and they pur sued this course while most of their comrades blew it all in. Tho pru rient ones saw that fuel was a good thing, that the world bad to have It, and they bought coal land, a little at a time as they could spare It, and It. has made them rich, and their fami lies live and will live in the greatest comfort, while Hie descendants of their imprudent, comrades aro labor ing as their fathers did for day! wages. Keep this object lesson in mind. The opportunities of that earlier time were in coal, today greater opportuni ties exist in oil, which is fuel in a more concrete form and is rapidly supplanting coal, because It Is easier and cheaper to mine and handle, and. Is, besides being a more economic fuel for all large consumers, profit able for :i hundred other uses. Tho oil of California. Is furnishing that state with cheap fuel, for tho lack of which -her progress has been woefully retariKd. Tho entire Pacific, coast will consumo oil as a. fuel, so that the demand upon the oil fields of Cali fornia is unlimited. California oil refiner) will hold tho markets of the far Kast and of the west coast of South America. It is plain to be seen thar the oil Holds of California will be the source of incalculable wealth, far beyond what tho coal mines of Pennsylvania htivn been in tho past. All thoughtful men can see that tho thing to do now to make money Is to buy the shares of conservative, re putably managed oil companies hav ing largo holdings of undoubted oil lnnds secured at low prices, and only roo.ui.rlng development to become tho source of enormous revenues for fchoreliolders-. The PACIFIC COAST AND TEXAS Olh COMPANY has in the most im portant oil fields managers of ability and integilty and of the highest prac tical (nullifications for their business, find the shares of this company are today, without doubt, the best Invest ment obtainable. These shares would, be cheap at 40c, hut aro soiling for the time being at 20c per share, to procure money to bore the first wells. The price Is sure to advance rapidly to keep pace with the developments on the company's lands and on ad joining lands, The market value of tho lands is constantly advancing.
