Hours. It would ieeni that Km land can secure more honor from an honorable peace settlement tn.in from continuing the attempt to drive the Boers from their stamping grounds. Here of late the Boer cause has been gaining in itrenxtn. while the Kritish have felt the ground slipping away from under their leet. The duty of the governor of Nebraska in the Pariah J kidnaping cane is plain. He should bestir himself to bring about the offering "I reward that would imiiii t tin- shrewdest 4a tectives to work upon the case. The offense whiili was cotumitteil against one of its citizens demands the prompt and adeiuate punishment of the culprits by the entire body of citizens. Kvery agency for the apprehension of the criminals should I nplnyed. More vigor should be shown in this case than if the boy had been mur dered in culd blood. In short, alxluc tion is u worst- crime than n i n n If r Dartmouth is the li rat American col lege to found u separate and distinct school of administration and finance, in which to train young men in the broad principles ol modern business and scientific finance. It is founded by Air. Edward Tuck, of Paris, in memory of his father, who graduated at l'art iktouth in 1H36, and waa a prominent ligure in New Hampshire iti the early anti-slavery straggle. The son is also a Dartmouth man, having gr.nln.it.'1 m 181'. He began life in our diplomatic aervice as a memler of the legation at Paris, and iH oue of the directors of the Chase National bank in New York. The curriculum of the Tuck school in cludes instruction in the problems of taxation, currency, practical hanking, corporate and municipal administra tion, the growth and status of foreign trade and general tvoiioinir questions. The address of ex-President Itei. jamin Harrison, delivered recently at the University of Michigan, and now being given great publicity, against imperialism in a republic is giving those who uphold the administration's policy in this regard great concern. It uasactually opened their eyes to the (act tiial tin- question was far from nettled hy the result of the election in November last and increases interest in the uses now pending in the United Htatas supreme court as to whether the constitution follows the Hag or does not follow it. Kx-President Harrison has placed himself on record as heiug opposed to any governmental policy that make.-, flesh of one race of nag and fish of another, and that would ui tenu certain rights ami privileges to those of some parts ol the territory over which the flair Hies and deny them to those ui other parts. The expected decision inuy strike down both the protective und imperialistic policial and theories of the Mckinley admin titration. The abstention from the polls of voters in all sections of the country at the recent presidential ejection is very surprising when the figures are Htudied. The official counts show that , 6(10, 000 men of voting age did not par ticipate in the election and only 13, V07,'2W went to the polls. Of course, iu the Southern states the percentage of those who did not vote is very large. But how can one account for the absence of 60 per cent of the men of Maaaachusetts, 54 per ceut of tin- men of Rtuate Island, 4'J per cent of the men of Maine an average of 13 per cent for the six New Kuglaud states'.' How account for tiai absence of 11 per -ceut of New York's u.aj. adulu, SB par oent of New Jersey's? In Indiana CASH STORE Court and Cottonwood the vole was within '2 per cent of the potaible electorate a surprising, per haps a suspicious showing anil the average percentage of abstention for the MMdle Western states was only IS per cent n the Pacific coast the ab stention was particularly large. In Washington 50 per rent of the potential voters did not appear at the polis; in Oregon 4.1 per rent ami in California M per cent, in spite of the fact tiiat in these states expansion was supposed to 1. ee lingly popular Well might the politicians, and those la ower be asking, why this popular indifference? Wliv did so great a number fail to exercise ll). privilege ol suffrage and participation in a free government .' A PROORBSSIVB RAILROAD. When the great double track tunnel under the cltv of Haltimore was con structed to shorten the route ol the 1'altiniore A Ohio railroad between New York. Philadelphia and WashiiiK too. the railroad rnmpanv was the lirst to emnlov the services of electrii locomotives for the handling of trains in the citv limits. The ponderous en sines, which are the most powerfuliin the world, an at present operated hy means ot the trolley system, getting their isiwer from overheat I wire The great cost of maintenance jof tin- svstern ami the consequent .rare m keening it in reiiair, htw induced the company to install the third rail svs teui, and work is progressing rapulli toward its completion. Tl lectricltv is furnished by an immense electrical plant which not onlv furnishes the power for the operation of the locomotives, but also the light for all of the Baltimore O roperties in tlie city, as well as several private concerns. In order to utilize all of the current and take up the surplus of electricity that is generated at the (siwer house at moments when the locomotives or lights are not used, an enormous storage batterv will lie used. a a a Sine idea of the sue o( the battery mav bo 'tamed from the dimensions of the building to bold it. The build lie will be lit leet long bv 44 fee! li inches wide. The batterv will consist of :CA) tanks made of hard wood lined with lead, each tank holding : plaUw, 1!' nega tives and 20 positives. Each tank will weigh, with plates and electrolvte, alsiut 1800 pounds, and the complete batterv will have a capacit of 1200 horsepower for a short period of time. The horsepower of the electric loco motive ranges Imm 1000 lo 1600, and tin-, entire load has to be supplied from time to tune hy the powerhouse al Howard and Montgomery streets . this load is only required when the locomotive if iu aervice, it is a very spasmodic one, the average throughout the dav i.emg lets than 600 horsepower. When th batterv is put in service it will act as a reservoir of power, ac cumulating electricity while the loco motive is not in action ami relieving the station of the load above the average bv discharging into the line this accumulated current. To effect this, the station Is only connected to the line through a booster, winch is the combination of a motor and a gen erator. The generator is put directly in the circuit aud is so designed that it onlv allows a certain amount of elec tricity to pas- from the station to the batterv and line. When the locomotive is not in service this current goes through the battery aud charges It. When the locomotive is put in service the current is diverted to the Hue, and as bv the nature of the apparatus no more can come from the power station, tin- battery must give out the extra current to operate. Thus the station will be operated at a greatly reduced aud highly economical rate, ami the extra power dispensed with may be put to other uaeful purposes. When the batterv is installed and the new third-rail system is placed iu operation the railroad company will have, according to electrical experts, the most modern system of heavy electric haulage in the world. taken in connection with the lact that the Beit Line of the Baltimore & Ohio was tin- pioneer in the applica tion ol electric locomotives for hand ling regular train service, tiiis im provement a. Ms another interesting feature to a plant that has already at tained world-wide prominence iu the held of electricity.

The occasion of the praiac given lo Mr. Mcintosh is the showing made ill the centals reorl of the development that has taken place In (be country around Albany slue. Istsi, That dis trict in Southern Georgia waa known in limes nasi as the Oeorgln desert, or the pine Wrens. It Is a low Hat land of sand and pine trees; the water was unhealthy and the Inhabitants were afflicted with chills mid fever. Men of means avoided it. llich planter owning the land of the region had t.helT homes either on the coast where healthful sen breeres blew or In the mountains of the northern part of the Htatc. Eow (lersons had any confi dence that It would ever be a fruitful and populous region, and win n the timber men liegiin to i ut o(V the pine trees, and so desitmv the only visible wealth of the land, il was Is lleved the time was not far distant when the whole region would Is- compurnt ivel y valueless and scantily inhabited.
