One of the Mexican newspapers com menting on the message ealls Roosevelt A PROGRESSIVE REFORM. Civil service reform Is certain to make progress under the present administra Indeed, it is safe to predict that It has tion. it will attain full development already advanced and we may be sure that President Roosevelt will lose no opportunity to apply the reform wher- ever It may be proper or practicable to He s as strongly and earnestly any to it { do =0, devoted to this principle now as in the ‘past, as his reference ibundantly attests th in his message In the judgment of the president “the merit system of making appointments s in its essence as democratic and Amerlean as the common school system {tself. It simply means,” says the mes sage, “that in clerical and other posi- tions where the duties are entirely non- political all applicants should have a fair field and no favor, ench standing on his merits as he is able to show them y practical test e president sald thit wherever the conditions have per mitted the application of the merit sys tem in its fullest and widest sense the gain to the government has been im mense, a statement most amply justitied by experience The president recom- mended the passage of a law which will extend the classified service to the District of Columbia, or will at least ennble the president thus to extend it. e urged that all laws providing for the temporary employment of clerks should Lerenfter contain a provision that they be selected under the civil service law. The following must receive the a quiescence of all good cltizens: “The merit system is simply one method of securing honest and efticlent administra- tion of the government, and in the long run the sole justiication of any type of government lies in its proviug itselt both honest and efticient.” President Roosevelt is as solicitous to have this system applied fn the insular possessions as at howe, saying that not | an office should be filled in those islands “with any regard to the man's partisan aftiliations or services, with any regard to the political, social or personal intlu ence which he may have at hls com mand; in short, heed should be paid to absolutely nothing save the man's own ter and capacity and the needs of the service He declared that the administration of the islands should be as wholly free from the suspicion of partisan politics as the administration of the army and navy. This also is a view In which all good citizens will concur and it can be confidently pre- dicted that it will be strictly and faith fully adhered to by the president, The twenty-first annual convention of the Natlonal Civil Service Reform league will be held at Boston this week and never has that organization met under more promising and encouraging conditions for the progress of the cause it represents. It will have better reason than ever before for congratulating the country upon the success of civil service reform and the assurance that it will be maintained and extended, A NEW SHIP SUBSIVY BILL. Senator has introduced a new ship subsidy bill, which moditles in sev eral and importunt respects the former measure. The Maine senator has been glving very eareful study to this subject since the last congress and believes he now Las a bill that will not encounter the objections that were made by re- publicans in congress to the bill f merly introduced and he hopes also that it will receive gencral popular approval. There Is not a doubt that the senti- ment in favor of building up an Amer feun merchant warine for our foreign commerce has grown very much during the past year. The reference to this subject by President McKinley in bis Butfalo specch, in which he urged the great fmportance of American ships for carryiug our products to forelgn mar- kets, had & very declded effect upon the public mind, this sentiment belng fur- ther strengthened by what President Roosevelt sald in his message regarding the merchant marine. He declared it to be discreditable to us as a nation that our merchant marine should be utterl, insigniticant i comparison to that of other uatious which we overtop in other forms of business, adding that we should not longer submit to conditions under which only a trifling portion of our great comme is carried in our own ships. While making no recom- mendation as to the legislation requived | for restoring thg American merchant | marine to the ocean, the inference is warranted that if congress should pass A subsidy bill the president would ap- prove it. Senator Frye will undoubtedly ma W most vigorous effort to have passed the bill that he has introduced, but as ¢ 10 the prospects of success nothing defi- nite can now be sald, because the strength of republican support of the wmeasure Is yet to be as rtained.

Boston Transcript. A natlonal democratic committeeman says the party cannot afford to change its national platform every minute. Perhaps not, but when it falls down it is not good policy to reconstruct it of the same flimsy material. Stirring Times Theae, Portland Oregonan, Lots of news these days.

Is there yet remaining an antagonist of the trusts who not crossed over into thelr “land of pure delight, where oil and honey flow?" ng Men to the i‘ront, Boston Transcript. It s becoming more and more the cus- tom to trust in the sagacity of young men. We are now living under the administration of the youngest president in our history, and upon the higher lines of politics, edu- cational responsibllities and business we find men on the sunny side of middle lite coming to the front. 'hinking Versus Worrying. St. Louls Post-Dispatch Many business men lmagine they are thinking of their affairs when in fact they are only worrylng. Worry 18 fear with a minimum of thought and fear is not only an unfaithtul emotion, but most destructive of effective thought. Of course, It needs no wisdom to teach that worry does no good. That is generally recognized and accepted as an undenfable truth. That it does post- tive harm is just as true, though not all men like to admit it. ches on the R Minneapolis Times A century from now, when the history of events in. China within the last two years shall have been written in judicial fashion, the record of Christendom will not be a bright one.

One of the most gratifying features of President Roosevelt's administration thus far and one of the interesting points of his recent message has been his evident de- termination to be president of the whole country—geographically, racially, eection- ally and politically. One significant instance of this was afforded when he held out his hand and gave friendly recognition to tae colored race, while at the same time ap- pointing democrats to offices in the south “for the good of the service.” Those parts of his message in which b protection of the forests and the reclama tion by irrigation of the unsettled arid lands of the west now show his perception Roosey and understanding of the possibilities and the present conditions in the great trans- kwllhout eveu paylug their part of the wmissiesipp! section of the v-‘wn"r. publicans, it will soon pass shows though not all the growth of organized and labor organizations places the total number of trades union- advocates the POLITICAL TALK IN THE STATE, (dem.)

It also discloses the fact that the debt s gradually growing at the uniform rate of $100,000 a year. It is pro- clsely for this reason, which the auditor's report emphasizes, that the Tribune has opposed the expenditure of a large sum of money for making an exhibit at the St. Louis exposition. It is time the stato was taking more Interest in getting out of debt and less In getting in. There are neces- sities that must be provided. These absorb the wholo power of the state to pay, and more. It is folly and recklessness to drift along and add to the burden by frequent and large expenditures for mere show. The prudent man who {8 heavily involved will stay away from fashlonable functions where his old but serviceable clothes can- not be worn. He will not invest in fineries and flummeries while unablo to meet i notes and interest. The state should exs ercise a little of the same sort of common sense for a while. But it will not. Lincoln Post (pop.): The state officers aro very foolish in urging upon the people | the thory that the constant incrense in the floating debt of Nebraska is a “legacy of fusion rule.” We hope that some day a sct of officers, of some party, will land in the state house with enough sense and sand at their command fo tell the truth about these things. The vast sum of un- paid general fund warrants outstanding today, $2,122,034.43, 1s due to legislative In- competency and not o any executive. For years it has been the custom of legislatures to appropriate more than the revenues and | leave the executive officers to war- rants which could not be pald and which issue the solons knew could not and would not be pald. When Mr. Meserve was state treasurer he called the attention of the legislature to this condition and urged that steps be taken to put the treasury on a cash basls, but the leglslature, which was engaged in electing United States senators, never heard him, apparently. When he went into office he found a large deficlency, a “legacy of republican rule;” when he went out he turned over to his successor an {ncreased deficlency, a “legacy of fuslon rule.” T OF LIBERTY, Marked Difference Between the Renl J the Ideal. Scribner's Magazine, There is a great deal of novelty about the growing American appreciation of order. Liberty was what the fathers fought for when they won independence, and libefty | was the watchword of the nation for a hundred years afterward. Liberty—*Lib- erty and union one and Inseparable’—was the warcry in our great civil confiict. Lib- erty is still a word Infinitely dear to every true American, but experience seems to be qualifying our definition of it. It used to mean self-government, and equality and | fraternity followed after it naturally as part of the same mental process. In that sense It fs still our ideal, for all peoples as well as for ourselves; but our theories, as | to its attainment, seem to have been gradu- ally modified. We have come to think a great deal about order, and to suspect that | the liberty which includes self-government has a price, and that those who cannot pay that price must wait for it until they can That price is order; such a degree of order | as will make it possible for civilization to | advance. We have begun to doubt whether | Iberty s at all times, for all men of all races, a panacea for all political ills. We have begun to discriminate. We hold 1ib- | erty in our own gift, and refuse, as we look toward the Philippines, to bestow it In full measure. They are not ripe for it | yet,” we eay. “They are still children in | the world's great family; we will give them for the present personal freedom and order, with more to follow; but full liberty and in- dependence all at once, we dare not grant.” And then we wonder not a little it we are doing right. As to that, neaven knows; but certainly we are doing our best. “Peace on earth, good will to men,” are sentiments so closely associated that we may not separate them Though sometimes our anxiety to make peace prevall may cause our good will to be questioned, we certatnly insist—how- ever doubtful of the comprehensiveness of our wisdom—that our obligations as pro- | moters and conservators of the world's | peace are far too grave to be neglected in the interest of our reputation for mere SAFETY IN RAT ROAD WRECKS, Something M Moving Detroit Journal, It is an interesting suggestion that for the avoldance of great loss of life in rallway collisions all passenger coaches shonld be ot a strength equaling the present Pullmans But it the opinion is held that two trains of the strongest cars can meet when run- ning at a combined speed of fifty or eighty miles the hour and do little damage to each other or to the passengers, a little reflection on modern gunnery will suggest a correc- tion. The best steel tipped bullets do not colllde with the best of armor plate without damage being done to the weaker of the two surfaces. If we can imagine two trains bullt so strongly out of steel that meither would suffer material damage in a colllsion what of the passengers inside, stopped in- stantly with the train? In padded com partments they might have a chance for life, but hardly otherwise. The strongest car, instantly brought to a stop from a speed of fifty miles the hour, would as in- stantly have piled up at one end a large proportion of its inmates, dead or mangled. What saves passengers in Pullmans, in ad. dition to the strength of the car, which s comparative only, i that the weaker cars in front act as buffers to take up the momentum force, so that the impact does not bring the Pullman to a stop Instantly. Bvery passenger on a train, however, should have an equal chance for his life, regard- less of the price he has paid for transporta- tion. What the passenger outside the Pull- man s not entitled to is the extra comforts and luxuries. What he is entitled to is immunity from Injury and that immunity should be as perfect in one part of the Walu a8 Ia anotber, appropria- | demo- | o pander | BITS OF WASH NGTON LIFE tehings of Peo Natlonn | Senator Wellington of Maryland fs the | lonelisst occupant of & seat in the United States senate He occ fes a seat on the republican side,” writes a correspondent of | the Chicago Chroniclc All around him {are men whose political faith he once ex | pounded and who recognized him as a | worthy exponent.
