Mr. Q may find a way to 2 few remorseful pangs into the idential : mpaign. Mr. Quay astrated that he fs not from politics with im- The »ke a word of pi for t which the President had fi he two important offices of As- cretary of the Navy and Assist- retary of the Interlor. Is not a se equally due for the spirit in which he is filling the more important places in Porto Rico? From t spollsman's viewpoint, the office of governor of the island was thrown away. Why go to Massachusetts for the min? The Bay State was certain to go re- publican this year. Why not have be- stowed the office upon some man from the debatable territory, and thus have realized on it for the presidential campaign? The President ms not to have thought of this at all. Qne may infer from the se- lection he made that his whole object was to fill the place with a man of the highest character and of demonstrated fitness for ts important duties. Mr. Allen had come closely under his observation, and having Sound him faithful over a few things he @ecided to put him over many. Dr. Hollander for treasurer of the island was selected for a similar reason. Mary- land, it is true, is a debatable state, but Dr. Hollander is not a politician, and had no pull of a political description. Being a teacher, though with experience im outside affairs, his intimates were with scholars rather than with politicians, and the Presi- dent consulted with the accomplished head of Johns Hopkins University about the ap- pointment. The selectifn is so good that the political leaders of Maryland, as well as the scholars of the state, applaud It. The auditorship of the island has been bestowed upon a man who for thirty years has given an excellent account of himself in this government's service, and has been promoted several times for efficiency. Mr. rison is not a politician, nor does he swing to the coattails of a politician. He will be familiar with the duties of his new office from having performed duties of a milar character in the Treasury Depart- ment, and everything gives assurance that he will in every fully justify his ap- pointment. May this justly be called carpet-bag gov- ernment for the new possessions? Does it reveal any paucity of the proper material in this country for filling the important places in the new possessions with those who by virtue of character and capacity and the mastery of American methods of doing business will thoroughly redeem this government's obligations before the world? —_____+ +=—____ Utilizing Admiral Dewey. A remark is attributed to David B. Hill ich presents the Dewey boom in a new light. Mr. Hill is of opinion that Mr. Bryan will be nominated at Kansas City, but ad- that Admiral Dewey's aspirations be treated with marked respect by the demo- crats, so as to invite the sympathy and as- sistance of the admiral and his friends after the presidential campaign has formally been inaugurated. In this way Admiral Dewey may be used to bring grist to the Bryan mill. The trouble with thi puts a poor apprai = suggestion fs that it ment upon the hero, and misinterprets the spirit of the country. What influence may Admiral Dewey be ex- pected to exert in the campaign if he ts not himself a presidential candidate? What reasons will he give for urging the election of Mr. Bryan over Mr. McKinley? Will the country accept him as an authority on the financial question, the tariff question, the trust question, the question of the reor- ganization of the Supreme Court, or the in- and referendum? Is he in agree- t with Mr. Bryan on the question of ex- Does he disapprove of the Presi- s course in the Philippines? If so, in what respect? Does he disapprove of the fort to put down the insurrection by force of arms? Or does he hold that the effort has been faulty in conception and execu- tion? And what would have been his own B of procedure? Admiral Dewey as a presidential candi- date, announcing with the bluntness of a man at arms that he would like to hold the office of President and believes himself qualified to fill it, may give good cause for mingled regret and amusement, but he still holds in his character of hero the regard of 1 the people. And there are some people who would be sincerely glad to see him in the White House. But transform him into a me t put him on a lev and more stumpers who will be urging Mr. Bryan's election; convert his uniform and his four stars into a partisan asset, and to be used against the party which stands for the com- plete utflization of the fruits of the victory of Manila bay, and what influence may Ad- miral Dewey be expected to exert on the campaign? Shall we not see the country in deeper regret than ever that one of our most attractive and admired national fig- ures should have fallen into the hands of political schemers? —< +2 —____ Our “Spendthrift” Army. It would be well if the War Department were to publish a statement of the amount of money heid by the American army pay- masters in the Philippines on the account of the enlisted men. Such a showing, if an ance which has come to light through te sources is at all characteristic of situation, would go far to dispel an the anti-expansionists have. for thelr own narrow purposes, brought against the American soldiers abroad. From time to time it has been de- clared that the army of pacification has be- come dissolute, drunken, extravagant, reckless. The rapid growth of the liquor business In the city of Manila has been cited as positive nee that the army service in the Phillppines is debauching the American younth in the ranks. Even uglier assertions have been made to the same gen- eral effect. One of the most emphatic of the Atkinsontan pamphlets turns this im- putation over and over as a delectable for American mothers, wives and thousand the ugly charge which Sternberg, a paymaster of the army stationed at Ilotlo, in the course of a letter to a friend in Washington says that the soldiers within his jurisdiction had, dur- ing the six months ending December 31, de- posited with him no less than $202,940, out of their pay for that period, this represent- ing only the troops stationed on Panay and Negros Islands. There may be fewer temp- tations in Toilo than in Manila, but all of the American troops in Luzon are by no means stationed at the capital. It ts fair, therefore, to assume that the condition re- ported by Major Sternberg is virtually rep- resentative of that elsewhere in the archi- pelago in this respect. Surely this can not be a very dissolute army, one that can save out of its meager pay hundreds of thousands, probably millions of dollars. There must be a very large proportion of sober, decent men in the ranks of such a force. The extravagant, reckless ones must be the marked exceptions. Why not, therefore,-a complete publica- tion of these private banking accounts of the men in the Philippines? It will unques- ttonably explode ons of the meanest of all the despicable Iibels which have been poured heartlessly and maliciously upon the American army, causing untold grief to the homefolks and shame to the honest citi- zens who have instinctively felt their falsity and yet could not specifically disprove them. ————~+s—____ It is to be hoped that the separation of Washington from the league will not create the impression among base-ball enthusiasts elsewhere that the District of Columbia has been taken off the map. ——__ + «= —____ Some one announces that Fillpinos do not swear. Those observed by the American soldiers could not catch their breath suf- ficiently to be profane. —~ 22 —___ Oom Paul resolutely refuses to apply any of the Boer resources to the employment of Nterary talent. ——»>++.—____ Presidential Calculations. One reason given for Gov. Roosevelt's distnclination to stand for the vice presi- dency 1s the fear of an unfavorable effect on his presidential fortunes in 1904. One reason given for ex-Senator Hill's willing- ness to accept Mr. Bryan this year is his desire to forward his own presidential for- tunes for 1904 Mr. Hill is said to have satisfied himself that if Mr. Bryan is nom- inated and again defeated a reorganization of the democratic party will be imperative, and that his own star may rise again. As the watched pot never boils, the too carefully nursed presidential boom never booms. The road to the White House is strewn with the bones of ambitious men who pressed on too eagerly, or tarried on the way too cautiously. The goal has been sought by many, but, necessarily, has been reached by but few. It would be im- possible to lay down any rule for aspirants. Men have schemed and maneuvered for years without securing even a nomination, while others have come with a rush, like a quarter horse under the whip, and carried off the honor to thelr own and the country’s surprise. In this matier in particular, in- deed, it may be said that the best laid plans of men, like those of mice, “gang aft agley.”” But good ruies have somewhat of a gen- eral application, and one of the best of rules is that a man should do his full duty in whatever sphere it may have pleased fortune to call him. Overnice calculations are apt to defeat themselves. Something must always be left to chance, for, whether it ts or not, chance, or fortune, or what you please, always plays a part. Take the case of Mr. McKinley. He had presidental aspirations for at least eight years before he was nominated for the office, but he did not foresee, and certainly could not have arranged, the situation that developed to his advantage. The Gorman-Wilson botch of a tariff bill made him his party's candi- date in 18%. He had shining personal merits and a well tested capacity for af- fairs, but those qualities alone would not have carried him to victory. The free trade democracy, by falling down with its com- mission to revise the tariff, had made pro- tection again the issue, and he was the foremost champion of protection in the field. ‘ Nineteen hundred and four is a weary while away. But 1900 is at hand; and the man, in either party, who meets the de- mands of the present situation with the best that is in him for the whole country’s sake, will not injure himself for now or for hereafter. ————_+++—__. The decision in the Clark case will be interpreted by some practical politicians merely as a warning that a man must not pay too much for a legislature. —__+ +2 ____ The sultan should be advised by the hints on housekeeping which show how much less expensive it is, in the long run, to pay cash than to run up a bill. ———_ +» ____ Possibly Admiral Dewey feels that it is more nautical and appropriate to leave the public at sea concerning his political opin- ions. ——_ += —_____ Notwithstanding his senatorial expenses, Mr. Clark of Montana managed to be @ regular patron of the grand opera. —~+ +2 —___ SHOOTING STARS, His Apprehension. “Do you mean to tell me you do not re- gard a public office as a public trust?” “Well,” answered Senator Sorghum, “I don’t like to hear it sald in just that way. Whenever you say anything about trusts and office-holding in the same sentence people are so likely to get suspicious.’ Human Nature. He vows with all the cynic’s arts And says he ts blase— But for the circus straight he starts When the band begins to play. A Hardship. “The men’s wear is very loud this spring,” said the salesman, soothingly. “I should say so. A man can't get a necktie or a colored shirt any more that doesn't look as if his wife had bought it for him.” In Sympathy. “Did you say that you love to watch the buds of spring unfolding on the trees and to hear the merry birds chirping as they hopped from bough to bough?" asked the man with a cold cast of countenance. “Yes,” said the enthusiast. “That's what I said. I suppose you have no sympathy in such matters." “Yes, have lots of it. I was just about to show my sympathy by telling you one of the best remedies for coughs, colds, sore throat and hoarseness that the drug store can produce.” A Feeling of Resentment. “Did you do anything to celebrate Shakes- peare’s birthday this weck?” “I should say net," answered the man with the big diamond and the fierce mus- tache. “A man who wrote those box office frosts like Macbeth and King Lear ought to be glad s Hvin’ without askin’ for any celebrations." Ups and Downs. Here's to the feller that’s down on his luck, The feller that's Goin’ best An’ Strivin’ an’ waitin’ an’ keepin’ his pluck, An’ puttin’ his wits to the test. The person who basks in prosperity’s glow Has hand-shakes and chesrs without ent But the felter that’s down on his luck— well, you know, He's the chap that’s in need of a friend. Our fortunes are subject to change, day by day— At least so philosophers vow; And judgin’ a man deesn't realy pay By his fame or prosperity now. So, if you are wise, you will make it a plan Your courtesy never to drop; Fur the feller that's down on his luck is the man Who is due to be some day on top. —___+++___ Will Not Reverse Precedents. From the Philadelphia Press. Senator Burrows of Michigan has a right to felicttate himself on the decision of the United States Senate In the Quay case. The narrow vote by which Mr. Quay’s claim was rejected will probably lead some other claimant under a similar appointment to reopen the case at some time, but an impar- tial Senate, with their judgments quickened by the argument and citations of Senator Burrows’ great speech, will never consent to reverse the judgment of the Senate in the Kenney Johns, the Mantle, the Corbett and the Quay cases. —____- + —____ The Strike Fallacy. From the Philadelphia North American, In Chicago 40,000 workmen are idle and 4,500 people are actually on the verge of starvation because a few men have deter- mined that nobody shall work until they get the wages they demand. The strike, like all strikes, is injuring only the work- ers. They lose all when they lose wages. The employers whose operations are sus- pended ar2 not starving and are not trying to kill one another. —>+e—____ A Diseredit to Kentucky. From the Milwaukee Wisconsin. ‘The acquittal of Col. Colson, who shot and killed three men during a fusillade with an antagonist in the lobby of a hotel At Frankfort, is an encouragement for other Kentuckians to sustain their state's reputation as a locality where the revolver occupies a prominent place in arguments of all kinds. —_++ = ____ The Real Question, From the New York Tribune. ‘The question whether the Pacific cable is to be laid by the government or by. a sub- sidized corporation resolves itself, in the last analysis, to this: Shall the govern- ment pay for the cable and own it, or pay for it and not own it? ——__+ ¢+_____ Improving the Speaking Voice. From the Chicago Record. If “the glory of woman is her hair,” a sweet voice runs the favorite a close race for first place in estimating the value of feminine charms. It is an encouraging cir- cumstance, therefore, to learn that a so- ciety for improving the speaking voice has been organized in New York and that it Promises to accomplish practical results in softening and mellowing the tones of the women of Gotham. Of course it is not alone the voices of women that are harsh and unmelodious; men’s vocal methods also need reforming. But it is among women that strident, high-pitched notes are most frequently heard in ordinary conversation, and it is reasonable that the reform should begin them. Moreover, when the voices of the mothers have become more naturally melodious their sons will gain some of the improvement, partly by hered- ity and partly by example. it is greatly to be hoped, therefore, that the society in New York will not only suc- ceed at home, but extend its influence all over the country until a disagreeable voice shall become the exception. aN If you are puzzled over the selection of a Wedding Gift Our stock offers many suggestions.
