THE COMING PRIMARIES. great pol W..nmd the primaries tq_ elect ‘delegates: to ventions ‘to ‘nominate: candidates for *‘municipal offices.” ‘As go the primaries ‘so- will go ons and-the: nominees..of each party. for. or ‘at.least for’ a majority -ofi- the nong - theim; -will ‘represent “the. were dominant-in’ the: party-primaries..

It is the taxpayer who has to make up the loss when public money i wasted; it is the taxpayer who complains loudest and most frequently of official neglect or incompetency; and yet it is the taxpayer who is most likely to stay away from the primaries and make no effort whatever to provide for the nom- ination and the election of honest .and competent mmen to administer municipal affairs. In his“address at the State University, President Roosevelt in speaking of the duties of educated men to their city, to the State and to the nation, sald that in a country where education for youth of all classes is provided free of cost from the primary e ow a party conventions a contrariness’ of school to the university, the man who accepts that'y education and then neglects to repay the State in- after years by assisting in the performance of public duty really takes his education as a charity and.is content. to accept it as an alms besmued upon lnm without recompense. That statement made a sttong’ nmpnssxon a: the time and was much discussed. Noone.disputed the securacy of it. Under the infltence awakened by the President’s visit and the enthusiasm: of ‘the ‘crowd’ and the occasion, a good many. men- doubtless: res solved at that time that they:would thereafter: be prompt and loyal in periorming’all the pohflal dutm -mnmcd upon lhem. The me has fiow come not already compktéd thc'w"ar.(angefilenmf'and'-néw wait with their forces well erganized for the coming of the contest. If any considerable percentage of the better element of either party remains away from the primaries the convention of that party will surely be controlled by men who are in politics for -the spoils, end no one will be to blame except the shirkers who have been too much absorbed in private business or pleasure to perform the duty of a citizen. S ———— A colonel in the United States army, department of Texas, recently refused $200 and a box of cigais offered to him as a bribe by a contrictor. The officer sent the contraband to Washington and an expose followed.

Money' voted-by: the Supervwors for|’ | defraying the cost ‘of public ‘work -has. been ‘used: mainly for increasing the. salaries 'of the 'employei of |'the board, and thesalaries: have been. made ‘use of las political spoil for the rewarding -of the ‘of this faction or-that. {pltle demoralization “of the .working: -staff. of the | bodrd, and as a consequence even the most -faithiful. | and industrious ‘members:of.the ‘force are no_ loniger able to do -much of really: public work to ‘éarn-thei |-salaries.

It has not only exhausted -public patienee but it is making even ‘popular indignation feel tired. Our police are rounding up the suspicious and dan- | gerous characters lodged 'in the city ‘and are roically undertaking a gerneral civic house-cleaning preparatory to the coming of the Grand Army of the Republic.” Such a street:cleaning is unquestionably the best we can make for the old veterans, who must i !made to ply the* penalty -of being preycd upon- . by Iflnues.

It was not long, however, before there came reports of discontents, misappre- hensions, fallings out and other mnshnps, thus prov- ing that for amateurs the course of harvésting like that of true love never did run smooth. Shortly after the first midsummer quarrel came a scornful report that an Eastern college man could not do a much work in a wheat field as an ordinary Kansas girl. The report, however, came from a farmer and not from the girl. - Under the circum- stances it is perhaps permissible to suppose that the college men either deemed it impolile to outstrip the girl and pass ahead ol her in her own fields or else that they were so absorbed in watching her that they forgot to work. In any event the report was followed, not by an announcement that all collegians had been sent home, but by a statement 6f a general demand for more fi them..

The withdrawal-of the privilege - given to Canada .would . prabably. be sufficiént to satisfy -Great Britain that the American people were in earnest. - Negotiations would soon begin' and- the. privilege so rashly dmurbed would be restored.” There may be a good deal of truth in that state- ment, though it is doubtful whether a denial of the privilege of shipping.

British subjects but. as Americans. Just how the British voter will take the- warning’ remains to be seen; but were an English politician to come to the United States-and warn an American constituency against a particular . tariff policy there would be no need to count the vote when the electionr came off. Much has been said and written of the rcce.n'i friendly visit of President Loubet to the King of England, pasticularly in reference to its effect upon |, both nations. .It is perhaps impossible to exaggerate the good which follows these outspoken tnkens of | riendliness between the representatives and :xpofl- ents of great peoples and vast civilizétions.
