ROM the Republican press of every section of Fthe State there come words of good cheer for the party Their utterances show substantial unanimity upon every notable issue of the coming camptiign. The counsel of all is for a united, har- monious party, and most of them add the plain declaration that the only obstacle in the way of har- mony is the persistent effort of the railroad bosses to force the renomination of Gage. It is rare that a campaign opens with so near an approach to complete accord of sentiment as now prevails among the rank and file of the Republican samp. In fact, the orly sounds or signs of dissent some from the faction that has been lined up to sup- port Gage and Assembly constitutional amendment No. 28. Outside of that small but energetic crowd here is a virtually unanimous conviction that either Gage must be defeated in the convention or the party will be defeated at the polls. The utterances of the Republican papers on this subject were strikingly confirmed by the proceed- ngs of the convention of the State League of Re- wublican Clubs. At that gathering of stalwart party vorkers from all sections of the State it was noted hat the only disturbing element in the convention vas made up of the Gage faction, and the only irri- ating incident was the Gage letter declining to at- end the convention a2nd insulting every aspirant for he Governorship who did attend it. With no other obstacle to success than the faction ight of the bosses and their henchmen, it ought to e comparatively easy for Republicans to make cer- ain of a sweeping victory in the coming campaign. f genuine Republicans will attend the primaries and e preliminary work of organizing for the canvass, f they will send as their representatives to the State onvention stalwart Republicans who will refuse to ake ordérs from Billy Herrin or any other railroad wss, the result will be the defeat of Gage’s schemes, he adoption of a platiorm denouncing the proposed orporation amendment to the constitution, and the ominaticn of a ticket that will carry the State by an verwhelming majority. At this time the oatlook is decidedly encouraging. artly by his subservience to Billy Herrin and partly v his natural rudeness and insolence, Gage has of- s:nded nearly every class of Republicans. Some ave been affronted by his swaggering support of Jan Burns for the Senate, some by his refusal arough spiteful motives to assent to bills providing »r the public welfare, some by his degradation of 2e Normal schools to the exigencies of boss poli- es, some by the removal of Dr. Osborn from the fome for Feeble-Minded Children to make 4 place )r a tax-eating politician, some by the general unfit- ess of his appointments to office, and some by his elight in saying spiteful and malicious things upon 1 occasions, regardless alike of truth and of pro- riety. Without the aid of the corporation political ma- sine Gage would have no chance whatever to get sen so much as a mention for renomingtion, Backed v the machine, however, he is formidable. Through se railroadghosses in the Democratic camp, a mot- y gang of Democratic rooters and heelers will be nt to vote this year at the Republican primaries, 1d as a consequence there may be elected to the mvention a considerable number of henchmen hay- g no other political ambition than that of obeying ilroad orders. Through their votes Gage hopes to in out, and it must be admitted that if genuine Re- iblicans are in the least neglectful of their political sties the chances of the bosses will be by no means ght. Such being the case, it is gratifying to find the spublican press of the State acting harmoniously in using the party to 2 sense of the danger. This is 1e of the occasions when the stalwarts must get gether before the State convention occurs. Vie- ry will be easily won under a leader whom the ople respect and whom the party will support with dor, but under the leadership of Gage defeat is rtain. The voters of the State did not know him in WALLER'S ACQUITTAL. HE court-martial trying Lieutenant Waller for T shooting prisoners on Samar has acquitted him. This action carries with it several considera-* tions that must be squarely met. The inci- dents of the trial went past Waller to his military su- perior. In his own testimony in justification. of his act the lieutenant went beyond any act of the pris- oners as justification for shooting them and swore that he was ordered by General Smith to shoot pris- oners. He did not limit this order to sex, but when asked as to the age of persons to be shot General Smith replied, “All over ten years old.” The special twelve who were shot are shot, and that ends them. Their fate is of far less consequence than the policy toward the people of Samar put in the or- der of General Smith. It must be refembered that Waller made oath to that order and that he regarded it as justification of his act. The verdict of the court- martial is an indorsement of the testimony of Waller. Now what is to be done? The first conclusion is that Washington needs to be in closer touch with military operations in the Philippines. The officers in command there need to feel some superior limitation upon the power they exercise. It is already in evidence that the climate lias an effect upon men and officers that after awhile unfits them for judgment. The rapidly spreading complaints of bad treatment of our own soldiers b their officers indicate this. These complaints make it evident that climatic effects upon the men make them reckless, of discipline. To this there are many accessory causes. The long distance from home, the novel and often unpleasant surroundings, the fatigue of marches and a diet new to them and the despair, that makes men reckless, all indicate that the ranks suffer from conditions that no human power can con- trol. They inhere in natural conditions which have been recognized in the experience of all countries that have carried on military operations in the tropics. When the consequences of these novel con- ditions appear in the conduct of the men, their of- ficers, wrought upon by the same influences, judge them as they would for similar conduct at home, where the conditions would make it flagrant, and im- pute to the guilty a turpitude which should not be charged to them in the tropical service. Unhinged for judgment, the officers visit punish- ments upon the offenders that would not be per- mitted to any officer in the United States. But be- cause the officers misjudge the men is no reason for misjudgment of the officers. They are entitled to the same leniency of judgment with which the pri- vates should have been treated by them. Nothing will be gained by sending an erroneous view on up_to be shared by headquarters. That will be no remedy at all. The climate is not going to change to please ns. The vertical sun is not going into a horizontal decline because it shines on Americans. Physical conditions will remain fixed, and if there be any mitigating influence it must come of accommodating our policy to them, not them to it. It would seem, then, to be imperative that the tour of troops in the islands be shortened., Spain, with a soldiery much more resistant to the influence of the climate than ours, found two years to be the maximum time that it was safe to keep troops there. There may now be no doubt that the erratic atroci- ties committed by Spain, of which we have so much complained, were in large part attributable to the very cause .we are discussing. We are persuaded that it will be safer for us to limit the tour of our troops to one year. There will be less to regret in the islands and fewer military pensions to pay by and by if this is done, and, though such a policy will be at present costly, it will be economy in the long run. As we began with a mistaken estimate of climatic enmity, it need not be wondered at that we have continued in the original error until we are jolted out of our preconceptions by events which profoundly impress the humanity of the country. There should, under the circumstances, be no pride of opinion to restrain us from righting ourselves, and promptly, before there are more of such occurrences as these which warrant action now. —————— . In a communication embellished with high- sounding language and much Oriental flourish the Chinese Government expresses a deep fear that our good rcputation in the Flowery Kingdom will suffer if we prohibit the entrance of coolies to the Philip- pines. This affords an excellent opportunity for Minister Wu to inform his Government that we are not looking for a reputation in China and are very busy in the Philippine T of Cecil Rhodes, upon which it is supposed that his legacy to international education was founded, while it detracts from no estimate of what he was, does affect the measure of what he aspired to be. The composition of his expression of his ideas is, as Mr. Stead admits, obscure in style and halts through involved sentences, so that one extracts the meaning often to feel fatigued by the labor. Still, as a whole, the composition leaves no one in doubt of the author’s meaning, and when that is grasped the importance of the scheme is found to depend entirely upon the great position of its author and is not at all intrinsic. The distinguished man who seems to have had his recreation in these visions conceived a union of An- glo-Saxon nations, with one capital at Washington and the other at London. The administration was to alternate every four years between the two. This combined Anglo-Saxon power was to have the he- gemony of the world, the leadership merely, not the government of the nations outside. Still, it would be a great political, industrial and financial trust, which would rule, without administering, every other nation. It could prevent war loans, and thereby compel peace. It could stop the supply of food and clothing to a recalcitrant people and command their submission to its will. f To the credit of the dreamer of this dream be it said that he made it plain that the plan had among its uses the humane purpose of preventing war. But he left out of his estimate that the condition to which it would subject all other nations, including ‘Adam Zad, the Bear, would come to be less tolerable than war. He also omitted from his calculation that such a combination would immediately force a combina- tion of all the other nations in self-defense, and that with Germany and Russia in the lead of such a com- petitive organization the scheme would be more likely to cause war than to procure peace, and that such a war would exceed in the stake for which the' bloody game was played and in its sanguinary inci- dents all the wars combined that the world has seen and suffered.

THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, APRIL 22, 1902. the plane of perpetual motion and the mechanical paradoxes in the search for which men have addled their brains. § All this grand partnership of a race was not to be cffected by a sentiment publicly promoted. It was rot to be the fruit of open discussion. It was not to be born of any of the means used in the evolution of races and the growth of nations, but by a secret so- ciety that should represent the wealth of the Anglo- Saxon race. This secret society was to be copied from Ignatius Loyola, and was to be made pervasive of the race selected as the beneficiary of the scheme. He no doubt carried this idea over from his experi- ence of the power of money acquired as the organizer of the De Beers diamond trust and the South African Company. In their field of operation he had seen these two organizations prevail over all things. They bad changed political geography, transferred sover- eignty, shifted national allegiance and almost defied nature herself. Naturally he reasoned that, given the power of the combined wealth of the Anglo-Saxon world, used by a secret organization, allegiance and sovereignty, civil institutions, national pride and all could be led cap- tive into a combination that would powerfully appeal to the imaginations of men and lead them captive into a combination that would use the energies of millions of men and billions of mondy to effect a federation, that the sober mind would look upon as fantastic in conception and upon the secret means for its attainment as’essentially puerile. ’ We desire to consider only in a dignified way this colo‘ssa] conception, but we are compelled to believe that its author’s claim to immortality must rest upon something less vague and fantastic. A German inventor has been arrested on a charge of gulling the public by inducing it to subscribe for stock in an airship project. The inventor = might reasonably plead in defense that it is no offense to operate upon that part .of the public which was caught in his net. He is not responsible for the idiocy of some of his compatriots, e e T HANNA’'S AMBITION. ENATOR HANNA has become much an- S noyed by the persistent reports that he will be a candidate for the Presidential nomination in 1904. He has once more repeated his declaration: “I am not a candidate for President and do not ex- pect to become a candidate. I wish everybody to un- derstand that, so that I can go on with the task as- signed me by the National Civic Federation without having my motives viewed with suspicion.” The reference to his work as chairman of the Na- tional Board of Arbitration gives to that statement much more interest than would attach to a mere de- nial .of Presidential aspirations. The Senator seems himself to have realized that, for he went on to say: “If these fool people, some of whom are my friends and others my enemies, would stop talking about my being a candidate for President, I am confident I could accomplish something of real benefit to the country in the task I have undertaken to bring about a thorough and permanent understanding between capital and labor, or between the employing and the working classes. My work along this line is greatly embarrassed, if not actually hampered, by the fre- quent talk of my being a candidate for President. * * * T would rather be instrumental fn bringing the employing classes and the working classes to- gether, so that strikes and other industrial disturb- ances would be minimized, if not wholly abolished, and have credit for that achievement placed upon my tombstone, than be President of the United States.” This emphatic statement of Mr. Hanna was made to a number of Senators, and Washington corre- spondents declare it to be the general sentiment at the capital that the Senator is absolutely sincere in his declarations. He not only has no thought of be- coming a candidate for the Presidency, but he finds that the persisteit reports of his candidacy and the evident intention of some personms to force him, as it were, to accept the opposition to Roosevelt is inter- tering with what has become a strong ambition, the desire to devise some means of settling controversies between labor and capital without recourse to strikes, which are so disastrous to all concerned and which frequently lead to bloodshed. The reports which have forced Senator Hanna to make such emphatic denials are among the most curious features of the politics of the time. No one can trace a single one of them to any authoritative source. They are apparently as worthless as the “specials” of yellow journals, and yet they find circu- lation everywhere and are gravely discussed from one end of the Union to the other. Some time ago the New York Tribune in commenting upon their per- sistence said: “Unless Hanna with a loud oath jumps into the air and declares he is not a candidate, and then jumps down with all his weight on what ap- pears to be a movement to make him a candidate, President Roosevelt will have a good deal of trouble before the next National Republican Convention meets.” The desire to find a leader for a Republican opposition to the President is not in itself surprising. No President can satisfy all the office-seekers or patronage brokers in his party, and those who are disappointed very naturally, seek for a new deal. This, we believe, is, however, the most persistent effort ever made to force a man to accept such leadership. Senator Hanna is wise in avoiding it, and now that he has been so emphatic in“repudiating the report it is to be hoped he will have no further trouble with it. e — ey The British House of Lords has finally and sol- emnly decided that it does not object to the introduc- tion of European capital into England, The fact that more than one member of the august body has lived and had his being upon American capital probably had much to do with the decision. It would be Brit- ish suicide to shut out the market of wealthy Ameri- can girls. A meat dealer in New York closed up his place of business the other day and put up a sign, “This mar- ket will reopen when the price of beef goes down.” By that action he has gained a large amount of free advertising in the newspapers and a good deal of commendation, but so far as heard from the action kas had no effect on the beef trust. —_— Charles - H. Towne, the silver-tongued silver man, has been silent forSo long that most people have for- gotten him, but now he rises to remark that he is out of politics and is not a candidate for the Presidency, so the country learns that he is still living and s slowly recovering his sanity, The British and the Boers are finding some di.m- culty in arranging terms of ‘peace.

OB invited guests There was a pretty military w?:l- ding last evening at the Third Congregational Church. The , prinei- pals were < Miss Qenevievé Gar- leway and Mr. Rutherford B. Moore, both of whom stand very high in the church and social circles. The groom has for several years been captain of the cadet ccrps of the Third Congregational Church and the fifty members of that organiza- tion attended the wedding in a body, wearing their uniforms. The groom was also in uniform. The bride was beautiful in a white bridal robe. She was attend- ed by her sister, and given into the keep- irg of the groom by her brother-in-law. Mr. Moore's brother acted as best man. The floral decorations at the church were elaborate and beautiful. Rev. William Rader officiated. After the wedding a re- ception was held at the home of the bride’s mother, 1409 Powell street.

No; He'd know the tricks of forestry, And, putting down the tiny tool That brought & spanking from his paw He'd couple’ up his batteries And use his new electric saw, He wouldn't leave the evidence Of any hatchet marks around The stump, or any telltale chips A lying on the garden ground. Instead, he’d have pneumatic tubes To suck the sawdust up and blow It forty miles away, before His daddy or the world should know. And if, perchance, his pap should find That he had chopped the cherry tree, ‘Why, he could have another gro In some conservat'ry. Within a week, with gas and steam, He’d have another tree in bloom, And papa Wash would smile again, ‘And Georgle would escape his doom. If_Georgle W. lived to-day He'd make a million plunks a year In chopping for the vitascope, And chopping In his stage carcer. He'd sell the echoes of his ax, \ He's sell the chips—a plunk a pound— He'd sell the buds from off the tree, 3 And sell the soll a mile around!
