A thousand people are reported to have been killed, and a thousand buildings have been thrown down In San Francisco. Fires have appeared among the ruins, and the destruction of life and property is' not yet to be calculated, as telegraph communication with the coast has beeu practically suspended. The long quiescence of the raeific shore had induced the belief that terrene stability had been obtained, in spite of occasional tremors in the West in spite, too, of the activity of volcanoes the world over, that began four years ago, and that has continued with little interruption.

In the faith of tills stability San Francisco has been recreated, the low wooden houses that were erected In the earthquake days having given place to tall buildings of steel and masonry, which have probably fallen in the present cataclysm.

The Astor fortune has long been In process of successive sub-division. Generally the number of children in any family will keep pace with the rapidity of accumulation. Of course, the President's suggestion was merely a case of "thinking aloud" on bis part and no one can be more fully aware than he of the tremendous obstructions constitutional and legal, that are fortunately In the way of putting such an idea into operation.

An inheritance tax drives people of wealth into making gifts In their lifetime. The President has noted this under the New York State law, and so he includes such gifts as of course would be necessary to bring his plan out equitably.

The latest application of the air line idea is a proposition, broached in Illinois, for an air line between Chicago and New York. The idea is that the air line will save some two hundred miles of the distance, being only miles long, and will make possible a reduction of the running time to ten hours. If the irir line is ever built such a reduction of time would be practicable. It would mean a sustained speed of 74 miles an hour. That is fast running, but it has been exceeded on single runs with steam power, while with electric motors, which eeem quite as feasible as an air line with tunnels through the Alleghany Mountains, a speed of 74 miles an hour would not be especially high.

If the air line were built it would rival the world famous road between St. Petersburg and Moscow, for which the engineer's route was said to have been drawn with a ruler on a map. Hut the lice from St. Petersburg to Moscow is much more nearly like an air line from Tinnipeg to Kansas City, with no mountain grades to be overcome, than like one from Chicago to New York. The latter would need tunnels through the Alleghanies and, to be literally an air to their own.

But there Is no denying that the nverage immigrant represents the DANGER OF HYSTERIA. IFrom the Hartford Courant.) There is serious danger of turning this there during the summer. It seems only fair that the owners of Dreamland should be consulted before this destruction and resurrection occur, for they involve the expenditure of vast sums of money. As we recall the matter. Dreamland was not built In defiance of the orders of the walking delegates because of any hostility to tin? principles of unionism, hut because, after experimenting with organized labor, it was found that so much time was taken up In striking that Dreamland could not get itself built; hence the company felt itself obliged to bile men who would build, regardless of outside affiliations or lack of them.

If the Federated I'uiou insists upon tearing Dreamland to pieces and rebuilding it, two or three seasons will probably be lost, since the materials for the construction will have to be destroyed and new and authentic boards and plaster secured, and it is a question if the company desires to lose the income of those two or three seasons.
