Men who exercise it through agents are seldom long content with a proxy, and the cabinet of labor leaders which controls events in Washington is beginning to re- fiect upon the greater ease with which it could con- trol its own destiny and dictate that of others, by Lolding the offices whose incumbents it now directs. Then, these strong men, like all strong meén, grow tired of subserviency. They get weary of compelling men to give up all their own ideas and convictions and take as errands the carrying out of the ideas of others in which they do not believe, because they fear the power that dictates. These observations have made their impression, and ambition, always coupled with a consciousness of power, is asserting its pres- ence. At the same time there is a tendency toward independent action, heretofore unknown. ) session is the passage of\'the Spooner resolution, i which directs the President to determine through the Department of Justice whethér or not the Colombian Governnient, in co-operation with the French com- pany, can make a clear title to the Panama canal property, and if so the President is to purchase that " property in accordance with the revised recommen- dation of the United States Isthmian Canal Commis- sion and proceed with the work oi completing the waterway. lf, on the contrary, it is discovered that a clear title to the property cannot be given, the Spooner resolution empowers the President to pro- ceed with the construction of a canal along the Nica- ragua route, as prescribed by the Hepburn bill, which has already passed the House. ' That method would leave the issue in a somewhat indefinite condition, but in the hands of a President so! energetic as Roosevelt it would not remain in- definite for any great length of time. It is safe to say the determination of the route would be made by him much more quickly than it would be made by the Senate; and accordingly the public would be well pleased to see the Spooner resolution adopted. The Call has already pointed out that the delay of the Senate in dealing with the bill has enabled the antagonists o the canal to array a new opposition to it, and the victory which a year ago seemed cer- tain is now becoming doubtful. It is time for the commercial and industrial interests of the country to renew their petitions to Congress for immediate ac- tion. A postponement of the bill at this session would mean a postponement to the next Congress, for if the measure cannot be carried duting the long session there will be little chance for it in the short one that is to follow, i P eu— " There is a report in New York that Carnegie has WILL SOON MAKE A DASH FOR THE NORTH POLE IN A SUBMARINE BOAT HERR AN ATTEMPT TO REACH THE NORTH POLE. completed his plans for the most remarkable of Arctic explorations, in which he will actually attempt to reach the north pole by means of a submarine boat, says the New York World.

It has among its possibilities the control of a ma- jority of the Northerr State governments, and of Congress. So it is not likely that this power will be long farmed out. It will be used for the benefit of its creators. /As this is human, it need not be quar- reled with. There be many who are not in labor unions who think that it is better that these appear in government as principals and not by proxy, and all who feel that way will impose few difficulties in the way of the new master to his place of power. In a popular Government all differences must be finally thrashed out, and to the thrashing floor all must come who have the power to get there. Dennis Kearney was merely premature with his movement.

It was tention of Billy Herrin and his an effort to obtain from the league con- indorsement of Gage's candidacy. The test from the Republican ‘press of the om the rank and file of stalwart Republi- erved to warn the more intelligent bosses of such an attempt. The indorsement of would have no other effect than that of disclos- poewer of the Losses, and so far from helping Gage's candidacy it would rouse genuine Republicans to more earnest efforts to defeat him in the State Conv With Gage and his gang eliminated from the field there is every assurance of a sweeping and easy Re- public in this State—a victory that will carry the Congressional and the county tickets as well as the State ticket. It is a Republican year, for Re- publican prosperity prevails throughout the country, and the opponents of protection and sound money are demorzlized and divided. Nothing, thereiore, can defeat the Republican party in California except the capture of the party conventions by those notorious bosses and railroad tools, whom the people know well and whose candidates they will not support. Fortunately, as we have said, the outlook for the San Jose convention is bright with promise of har- mony. That there will be differences of opinion on minor questions is of course to be expected, but upon the vital issues of the time the thousands of dele- gates at the convention should be as one. They have met to represent the Republican clubs of the State, and the clubs have no other object than to promote Republican success. They were not organized to help nor to hinder the aspirations or ambitions of any par- ticular candidate or set of candidates. Their one po- litical devotion is to Republicanism, and their one de- sire is to promote the harmony and the unity of pur- pose that will carry the whole party united into the field when the campaign opens, and every voter to the polls on election day. The influence of a harmonious convention will stimulate and inspire 2ll loyal Republicans. It will revive the spirits of the old stalwarts and veterans of the party and quicken the ardor of young Republicans so that they will open the campaign with vim and vigor and carry it on with a rush from the primaries to election day. That fact appears to be well under- stood by the great gathering at San Jose. The efforts of the bosses to win a factional success at the risk of giving rise to dissensions will find no encouragement from any considerable number of the delegates. It is to be 2 corvention whose watchword will be: “Every- thing for Republicanism and nothing for faction,” and in the same spirit the great host of loyal Repub- Jicans throughout California will hail its proceedings with satisfaction, and enter upon the task of making the campaign 2 walkover and the election a clean sweep constit the n victory He fired the first gun and its effects seemed to die with its echoes. But it is now apparent that he pioneered in a path in which many are destined to walk toward the goal that he saw in the seventies. Henry George was too early. Had he survived he would have to-day moved through the States as a king making progress through his provinces. Present conditions are evidence that forces once in action, and affecting” the material condition of men, cannot be arrested. Be they harmful or helpful, like a ferment they must work until they are spent or the material on which they feed is exhausted. It must not be forgotten that the labor leaders have been training in administration. The management of some of the vast federations requires as much genius of leadership as has been shown in any matter by { anybody in the history of the republic. The elements they must control are crude and stiff-necked. They are gathered from the ends of the earth, and a ma- jority of them are not trained under our institutions, or indeed under any institutions that teach men self- discipline. This vast mass of men is consolidated, and it has never yet happened that such a consolidation | has abstained from attempting to gain political power. There be those who shudder at the prospect of such attempt here. But shuddering will not avert, nor temper its use of what it gains. So it may easily come to pass that the country will look with gratitude and confidence to the leaders of this consolidation to pre- vent its intoxication from its first taste of power, When its dreams come true and it is in power, as it may easily be, it will be our first experience with the representation of one interest, one class, if you please, in the government. Students of civics will contemplate the scene with interest, and history will get ready a new page to be over-written with the story of a novelty in government. i T THE CANAL OUTLOOK. R outlook for the passage of the isthmian canal | bill at this session of Congress are contra- dictory, and by no means reassuring to the hopes of those who expected to see the great work under- taken in earnest. According to one statement the Republican steering committee of the Senate has virtually decided to postpone all consideration of the measure until the next session, but according to an- other, some of the most influential Republicans in the Senate have declared that the issue will by no means be postponed. One of the reasons given for the belief that the EPORTS from Washington concerning the six members of the steering committee to give the Philippine civil government bill, the Cuban reciproc- ity bill, the river and harbor bill and the various sup- rly bills precedence over all other*measures, and it is said that course will compel a postponement of the || canal bil’, unless the session should be greatly pro- longed. Against that view is the statement that Senator Morgan and other uncompromising supporters of the Hepburn bill will make a strong fight to raise the question at once. So, too, Senator Allison is reported to have stated recently that he has no doubt that the Senate will adopt some definite legislation concern- ing the canal at this session. The difficulty in the way of action seems to have arisen from the conflict between the supporters of the Nicaragua route and that of Panama. The struggle between the two parties may make a orolonged de- bate, and it is to avoid such a contingency that a considerable number of Senators who are interested in other measures are willing to postpone the canal question to the next session, or, possibly, to the next Congress. It would appear from these reports that about the ‘only legislation on the subject to be expected at this pa bill will be postponed is the known desire of at least, given favorable consideration to a plan of the Phil- harmonic Scciety to erect in that city a music hall with a seat’rg capacity of 40,000 persons in the auditerium snd a stage ample enough to accommo- date a chorus of 15,000. Such a colosseum would be more notable for its size than for its fitness for gsod music, and in the end would probably be converted into a hippodrome. TINKERING WITH THE TARIFF. realized, the debate on the Cuban reciprocity bill in the House this week will give the coun- | try a striking illustration of the danger of making any opening whatever in the solid wall of protection which now guards American industries. The debate, it is said, is “to proceed withput rule,” and conse- quently the Democrats intend to offer a large number of amendments, with a view to preparing the way for further reductions of protective duties. The amend- ments will doubtless be defeated, but none the less the logic of the argument will be with the men who ask why duties should be reduced on great agricul- tural staples like sugar and tobacco, and not on other articles as well. 5 In this juncture it is fortunate for the Republican party that the Democrats are demoralized and divided even on the tariff question. Were they united the opening that has been given by the introduction of this bill and its support by a majority of the Repub- licans of the House would enable them to make an attack with such success as would lead up to a pro- longed agitation for a revision of the tariff as a whole. Having seen one reciprocity scheme adopted, to the injury of the farmers, they could go before the country this fall and make a strong and possibly a winning fight for further reductions. Even as it is, with a divided party, the Democrats of the House will be able to plit the Republicans in an equivocal position on the tariff question, should the Cuban bill be adopted. - It will not be easy to explain to farmers why agricultural interests should be exposed to foreign competition, while manufactur- ing industries are carefully guarded. The plea that the bill must be passed because of our moral obliga- tions to Cuba will not deceive the common sense of the people. The United States, by establishing the independence of Cuba, providing for a stable govern- ment and securing the blessing of peace to the island, has given the Cubans all the opportunities for pros- perity they have any right to expect. The mainte- nance of their industries should be left to their own energies, and not be made dependent upon our charity. Equally futile will be the plea that the adoption of the bill will not be injurious to the sugar and the to- bacco growers of the United States. That sort of argument has been heard too often from the mouths of free traders and the advocates of tariff for revenue ' only, and has been {co completely refuted not only by Republican arguments, but by the experience of the Wilson tariff, for it to have any convincing power with the mass of genuine protectionists. During the hearings on the bill in committee that argument was used, but the representatives of the National Grange and of other associations of farmers frahkly refused to admit its validity. They claimed for farming in- terests as full protection as is given to other interests, and the claim is not to be disputed. All of those facts are going to be brought out dur- ing the debate. The Republican party is going to have an object lesson on the folly of tariff tinkering, and it is to be hoped the leaders of the House will profit by it. SHOULD the expectations of Washington be A representative denizen of Modoc County, who has escaped from the locality into civilization, says that affairs there have gone back into their old groove and the people feel that at least they were adver- tised by the lynching trials. He might have added that a community which has lost all sense of its own infinite shame has in truth reached the lowest depth of degradation. ' Certain Democratic would-be leaders have declared themselves very much pleased with what Roosevelt said at Charleston about the trust, but it is a safe prediction that if they should try to formulate a reso- lution to that effect in a Democratic caucus there would be another split in the party. Oakland has discovered another freak of municipal life. He is a gentleman who intends to go to jail to help the lawyer; test a law in the courts. This seems to be something even more serious than taking one’s life in his hands.

Rix-dollar is a name for a silver coin in different countries-and of different values. It is a corruption of the German term reiche- thaler, dollar of the empire. SILVER—W., Helena, Mont. According to published statistics of the amount of silver produced in the United States and deposited at mints and assay offices from their organizations to June 30, 1901, it ap- pears that California produced $4,514,214 90 and Nevada $105,700,366 0. [ LEAKY ROOF—N. Y. 8., City. If you occupy a house the roof of which leaks and the landlord has not had the matter properly attended to, and by reason of such leak your carpets and furniture have been damaged, you have a right to de- mand the amount of damage from the landlord, and if he does not satisfy your demand you have the right to commence an action against hifn. MARRIAGE—P. S., Martinez, Cal. Par- tles divorced in California may go at any time within a year after the decree to the State of Washington and there remarry, but it is not vet certain if such a mar- riage would be legal. There has been one decision which upholds such marriages on the ground that a marriage that is valid in another State or country is valid in this State, while the other decision is against it, on the ground that going to another State to marry is an evasion of the law of California, which inhibits a divorcee from marrying within a year after the decree. WATER RIGHTS—G. F. M., Lone Pine, Cai. If you complied with all the require- ments in regard to certain water rights you would have the advantages of a first appropriator, but if you used water for thirty years without having complied with such requirements that would not give you any standing. If you believe that you are right and some one else is seek- ing to prevent you from using water as you have been doing in the past your remedy is an action in court, when your rights will be determined upon the evi- dence. This department does not give legal decisions on ex parte statements. EDWIN MARKHAM—W. N., City. Ed- win Markham, poet and editorial writer, was born in Oregon City, Or., April 23, 1852; son of Samuel and Elizabeth (Winch- ell) Markham. When 5 years of age he was taken to California and in his young- er days he was a cattle and sheep herder and also worked at blacksmithing. Dur- ing his boyhood days he earned his way through the common schools, San Jose Normal School and Santa Rosa College. He made a special study of ancient and modern literature, also Christian soclol- ogy. He married Annie Catherine Mur- phy in 1897. He was at one time a teacher, then principal of a school and then super- intendent of schools in California: From boyhood days he showed an aptitude for writing for the press and periodicals, and contributed much while in Los Angeles to the California papers. His writings were recognized by the Eastern maga- zines as of the highest merit. He re- mained in California until 1899, when he went to the State of New York and is now a resident of Brooklyn. THE CABINET—Reader, City. The fol- lowing named are the members of Presi- dent Roosevelt's Cabinet: John Hay, Sec- retary of State; Lyman J. Gage, Secre- tary of the Treasury; Elihu ‘Root, Secre- tary of War; Philander C. Knox, Attorney General; Henry C. Payne, Postmaster Gen- eral; W. H. Moody, Secretary of the Navy; Ethan A. Hitchcock, Secretary of the. Interior; James Wilson, Segretdary of Agriculture. The members of the Cabi- net form an advisory conference. They hold office at the will of the President, and administer -their functions under his direction and with immediate responsi- bility to him. They are held to administer in their respective departments the execu- tive control which the laws vest in the President. Thus their functions are of high importance and honor. They meet steadily, or as summoned by the President in advisory conference, but they are not to be doing 2 good business selling handsomely illu- minated cards bearing the words, “God bless our temporary hcme” an executive council, and the President is not legally bound to ask or follow their advice.
