Another Prize for Richmond The South Side Improvement association has again proved its
fulness to Richmond and Wavne cotmtv. Bv the work of its members
ten thousand dollars worth of stock in the proposed interurban company
toeether with the fifteen thousand dollars worth of stock already placed
assures Richmond of another interurban within the course of the next ! two years. Tho importance of the new Interurban should not be underK estimated. Coming In from the south it will open up a new territory for development by Richmond merchants. It will come from Hamilton via. Oxford. Ohio, and College Corner and into Richmond through the new addition, Beallview, up South Eighth street to Main street. A branch line at College Corner will connect the main line with Liberty, and will afford the Inhabitants of that city more rapid conveyance and regular communication with this city. At Hamilton the line will connect with a line already in operation between that city and Cincinnati, thus affording through communication between Richmond and the latter city. The. new Interurban line coming into Richmond through Beallview. will greatly enhance the value of the lots in that addition and their disposal at a good price is very readily assured. This industry and push on the part of the members of the South Side Improvement Association only goes to show how R'riond is pushing to the front. How ,keen it is to ; new transportation lines here in order to increase the advantages K. ...ioad has to offer to industries contemplating a change of location. Kichnjond owes much to the South Side Improvement association. It has been a tireless worker in her interests.
ON BRANTLEY LIQUOR BILL
The House Judiciary Committee Rec ommends Measure Making Intoxi
eating uiquors a special Class in
Interstate Commerce.
Publishers Prc-s.J ivasnin . . i he house
committee cn judiciary decided to
make a favorable report on the Brantley bill, making intoxicating liquors a
special class in interstate commerce
and forbidding the collection of money
on c. o. d. shipments of such liauors
in states where the sale of liquor is forbidden by state laws. This bill is
not as broad as the Littlefield bill-
which the committee reported a few
days ago, and it is believed by Representative Brantley to be a measure
which will not be found unconstitu
tional. The measure does not attempt to Interfere In any way with the trans
portation of liquors into prohibition
states, but oals only with the actual collection of the . purchase price of
liquors. Representatives Littlefield,
Pierre and Tierrell voted against the
bill in committee.

'Publishers' PresJ Belfast, n. By tne overwhelming . r..y of S'53,000 votes against DO.uOj, r.3 represented by the delegates, the international labor conference rejected a proposed amendment to the constitution, the effect of which would have been to transform
It into an avowedly socialistic organ!
tation. The proposed amendment was
contained in a resolution suggesting the insertion of the following new
object In the constitution:
"This annual conference hereby declares its ultimate object shall be to
obtain for workers the full results of their labors by the overthrow of the
present competitive system, or capitalism, and the institution of public ownership and control of all means of
life." Opponents of the proposed
amendment declared that it would
create irreparable dissension in the
party, as trades unionists are opposed
to pledging themselves to socialism.

situation has resolved itself into car

In later damage. The river is steadily falling, so that the danger line of 50 feet will probably be passed within a day. Railway officials expect trains to return to the Grand Central passenger station by Sunday.
A conductor on the Pennsylvania, who from the point of service is one of the oldest men on the system, grew
talkative yesterday, after his train had stopped in Richmond for several
moments, and during the course of
his conversation touched upon the
discontinuance of issuing passes by
the company and the effect which It had upon the traveling public who
were prone to ride on railroads heretofore, only because they held a coveted little ticket which read "Pass one John Smith." "Yes it Is strange", said the man with the blue uniform as ue slightly shrugged his shoulders, "when passes were In the heighth of their glory, nothing was too good for the conductors upon the trains, on which the pass holder was riding. With a jolly effervescent and hilarious manner, these men would reach out grasp
your hand, or slap you on the back, with cheerful words of greeting. The conductors were the whole show with
them, to all appearanc3. Nothing
was too good for us. Why when we would reach the end of our line they would invariably ask us to drink with them or in the meantime would hand us cigars or other tokens of their
good will, but now it is different. I
don't want you to think that we solicit such things. No not that. But when
a man presents us with such things
in a friendly way and sociable mood, we cannot help but accept or we would insult them. It Is all over
now, (here a sigh or regret escaped the old timer.) "Yes it is all over,"
he continued. "Those very same men who rode on passes and formerly greeted us with overflowing spirits and address now pass with a mere nod of recognition, veritably slink
into the coaches and that is the last we hear of them until their tickets,
for which they have to pay actual iron money are collected. They don't seem to recognize us any more. I suppose it is all because the railroad companies took away their passes.
Those passes however meant more
work for us and we are glad that they are gone, although much of that effervescent friendship formerly bestowed upon us, finds its course in other
channels, and we are the losers so far
as cigars and treats are concerned."
NO DISORDER IS REPORTED
No Necessity for Policemen at the Voting Places in Germany Bourse Is Closed and Merchants and Clerks Take a Holiday.
t Publishers' Press. J Berlin. Voting In the reichstag elections was quiet and orderly. The bourse was closed and many merchants and their employes did not come down town until after they voted. No disorder was reported. Emperor William called cn Chancellor von Buelow during the day, after which the chancellor drove to a polling place. His secretary, who went ahead, handed him a ballot as he left the arriase. The prince thrust the ticket into an envelope himself as required by law, gave his name to the election commissioned and the latter took the envelope and placed It in a ballot box. Von Buelow appeared ti be In good health. There was not a policeman in sight when the chancellor voted, and this was true also of ail the other election districts, no policemen being on duty at any of the polling places.
REPRESENTATIVE JOHN WESLEY GAINES Congressman John Wesley Gaines of Tennessee recently made himself nationally noted as the chief advocate of the proposition that members of congress who do not attend the sessions should be docked in their pay. Mr. Gaines strenuously supports a resolution to dock any member the amount of his diurnal salary fr every day that he may be absent. This. It is understood, is already the rule, but the house has permitted it to fall Into disuse. Mr. Gaines Is a lawyer from Nashville. lie has been elected to congress five times. At one election he received four times as many votes as his opponent The congressman is noted In the south as an eloquent stump speaker and orator.
ANOTHER OPINION ON ROCKEFELLER,
IIS MONEY AND EARLHAM COLLEGE
What! Not accept a donation to
Earlham from John D. Rockefeller!
There seems to be nothing more
conducive to activity of the conscience of a certain class of people than a stimulant administered in the form of an offer of money to an educational or religious institution by John D. Rockefeller. But, their conscience can sleep peacefully while the saloon keeper deposits his license fee in tne city treasury to help pay the expense of
teachers to instruct the children in the public schools. Not a whisper of "tainted," disturbs the tranquility Also, what man who passes the collection basket in our churches, ever withdraws it with dignity and looking to the pastor and righteous people of tb church whispers, "tainted"! ard passes on? The worst that I have reid of Mr. Rockefeller in these few years of sensational exposure of "successful" men, has been successful over-reaching in business matters, not once of trying to destroy the soul and body of our young man.
I must cease or my letter will reach the waste paper basket, but I piead for consistency. Mr. Rockefeller's money is no more tainted, than the saloon keeper's, or many another's, who help to pay pastor's and professors salaries and to build Institutions tending to uplifc humanity. Why not accept the money offered toward the developing of our loved young people with thankful hearts, and let the giver answer to God and his own conscience for the way he obtained It? "If, as Rev. Case thinks, the gatherer of these tainted millions is still "a good old man," how can the use o" the money have a deleterious effect when expended by ... wise Christian men? If you commiserate the giver's condition, why not remember him In your prayers that he may be shown the true way to make restriction for !l gotten wealth. There is no true godliness la self
righteousness. U. N. Tainted. Allis M. I. Smith.

As yet Supt. T. A. Mott, of the local
schools has heard nothing further in regard to the plans of the English school teachers who are to visit the
Richmond public schools along with
the schools of other Western cities The first corps of teachers which ar
rived In this country, passed the Rich
mond schools over, with apparent disdain, but as Mr. Mott has received assurances that some of the parties
which will visit this country will come to Richmond, he Is inclined to think that the visit will be made by a party which has as yet not left the British Isles. The government is sending the teachers to this country at its own expense and parties are leaving every few dajs in order to study the school conditions of this country. A large party of John Bull's pedagogues are expected, to arrive in New York next month or some time in March and it is probable that those coming to Richmond will be in this party, although nothing certain is known.

Passports and' letters found on Rayner showed that he had traveled much in Russia and elsewhere on the continent. The murderer was operated on at the hospital.

Faulkner, former United States senator from West Virginia, appeared before the house committee on ways and means to refute charges made by Professor Henry W.-Elliott of Cleveland, O., against the North American Commercial company in connection with the lease of sealing privileges In Alaska, which that company holds. Professor Elliott stated to the committee that he was employed by Secretary of State Hay as a confidential agent to investigate the seal question. Mr. Faulkner stated that $5,000 for maps and charts is the only record of any payment made by the government to Professor Elliott. Mr. Faulkner also said that Secretary Root re
fused to recognize a verbal agreesment Professor Elliott alleged that he
had with Hay as secretary of state. Mr. Faulkner denied the charge that the North American Commercial company has been suborning United States officials, and stated that great injustice was done Herbert H. D. Pierce, United States minister to Norway, in the accusation made against him that he should not have been paid by owners of the sailing vessel, J. Hamilton lewis, for representing their interests before The Hague tribunal when their claims against Russia for the seizure of the vessel were heard. Representatives Clark of Missouri and Williams interposed the principle of allowing a United States govern
ment employe to represent a corporation before The Hague was wrong and Mr. Clark remarked that Senator Burton was put In jail for practicing before a government department which, Mr. Clark said, was to his mind n worse than what Mr. Pierce did.
