Popular Mechanics for March con tains and illustrated article -on the Chicago submarine tunnel and the fire in the crib which was' so disastrous to human life. Another interesting arti: cle is on the earthquake in Italy. The magazine, which contains nearly three hundred pages, has many other arti cles of interest to the general reader as well as to the mechanic arid the man of science. This periodical is published by the Popular Mechanics Company, at No. .225 Washington Street, Chicago, the price 10c a copy, or $1.00 a year. iystelmatic Embezzlement" mtil his merce peculations reach over one hundred thousand dollars in a comparatively small bank? and:what are the direc- Congressmen are anticipating a ve-; tors, who are supposed to supervise ry long sitting of Congress in the ex-the business of the" bank, doing all tra session extending well into the J that time in the way of performing Summer.

If Senator Frye is correct in his supposition as to the length of the session it means that au effort will be made to really revise: the tariff in a way that term is usually, taken to mean that the opponents of the pres ent high duties will make a stand for reductions in many of the schedules and that these efforts will be bitterly fought by the stand-patters, who do not construe -the term "revision of the tariff" to mean necessarily a reduction of any of the present rates of duty. When the tariff question-does come up in Congress we hope the Demo crats will not act simply as opponents of measures advocated by the stand . patters, but will make an aggressive fight for tariff reduction along lines of their owh; that they will stand for certain principles and do all in their power to enforce those principles. They should let the country know that they are for tariff revision be cause it is right, and not simply make themselves obstructionists to whatev er measures the Republicans propose. Of course, all tariff revisions are in the end compromises, and neither the Democrats nor the Republicans who comes more philosophical as he growfaould have Produced n . older, looks beyond a permanent taril One shor passed entirely through the commission, charged with regulating WW ana V".uuf" , ..i.t x "inthpr indered m the brain. with regulating prices.

Wooley, who was, the can didate for President of the Prohibition party in 1900, has withdrawn from that party saying it has accomplished its purpose in making Prohibition a national issue; in other words, it is now fully recognized by the other parties as a political measure. When a man hangs around the legis lative halls in the interest of a bill the majority party bosses don't want passed he is a vile lobbyist; but if he is engineering a measure the bosses advocate, he is a humanitarian, labor ing in the cause of the -people. Colonel Cooper has got to do some mighty hard swearing to overcome the impression created by the testi mony of the State's witnesses and convince the public that self-defense necessitated the killing of Senator advocate reductions in some of the I Carma scneauioKwtfi j1A au. t- u xney want; they will have to make some compromises with the stand-patters; but we want to see the Democratic wing of the low tariff faction in Con gress fight and fight stubbornly, for what their platform calls for, thereby showing they were in earnest when they adopted that plank and consider it a political principle and not merely an empty phrase incorporated in the platform to catch votes. CURRENT COMMENT. THAT CAPITAL MOVING SCHEME, "It's no joke" the Charlotte Chroni cle says about that proposition to move the capital from Raleigh to Greensboro. It says" that when it is finally decided to build a new Capitol the Greensboro proposition is likely to be seriously considered; that Raleigh's only -claim to the capital is tradition, while there are many things it should claim but cannot; that Greensboro is near, the center of the State and in that respect possesses a powerful ar- It does not appear to be so much that Margaret Illington has discovered incompatibility between Dan Frohman and herself, as that it has dawned upon her how much more compatible with her present state of mind is the fellow she will marry when a divorce has been granted. It was just the same way with the Gould-Boni-Sagan wo man, ditto with the Corey man Virginian-Pilot. Public opinion alone is adequate to the business of judging what the public shall enjoy or suffer. Public opinion is the only true regulator of a people's manners or its morals. There is too much attempt to regulate everything in this country by law Not censors, commissions, nor courts can regulate moral standards or mat ters of taste and custom.. Public opin ion alone can regulate them, and if it were allowed an opportunity to do its work in such matters this country would not be what it is today a land of the greatest amount of law and the least liberty in the world.

In an swer to this friendly slap from the Evening Times "Greensboro stole a march on Char lotte yesterday by putting in a bid for the State capital. But in after years, when the Charlotte papers re fer to" the matter, it will be strange if they do not speak of it as the time when there was talk of moving the capital to Charlotte.' " the Chronicle makes the following boastful reply: "No; that would not be correct, for there has been no such talk. But if the Queen City ever gets ready to go after the capital the papers will there after refer to the year it was moved to Charlotte."

Concord Woman Commits Suicide by Fearful Means. (Charlotte Observer.) Concord, Feb. 19. Mrs. Alida Burk head, widow of John Whitfield Burk head and a daughter of the late Capt. John Woodhouse, for many years editor of The Concord Register, com mitted suicide here today by burning herself to death. At 2:30 o'clock she complained and told her 17 year-old daughter, Miss Dora, that she wanted. to lie down, going to her room at the head of the stairway. There she saturated her clothing with kerosene oil and set fire to herself. Before any one could reach herrthe Barnes had burked the flesh on her face, neck and body to the waistband into a crisp. She was conveyed to a room in the lower pkrt of the house, where she was attended by. physicians until death, which oc curred at 7:45. - The cause assigned fdr the irrational and shocking deed Is her very bad physical condition, she having been in poor health for several years,? the effects of which had somewhat im paired her mind.
