The appointment of Gen. Theo- | dore A. Bingham to be Police Com- missioner puts a military man in a civic position where there is urgent need of military qualities, Discipline is badly wanted there, and a strong hand to enforce it, | Silence is wanted in a depart. ment which since Commissioner Roosevelt's days has been too nolsy and too much in evidence with] charges and counter-charges: and| complaints, Obedience is wanted, implicit and unquestioning, not begrudged and half-rebellious, with an eye on political pull and reinstatement by the courts, Co-operation and esprit de corps are wanted to check the dry-rot of disorganization. The defiance of officers must be ended and the impres- sion corrected that every man is for himself, To that end the Patrol. men’s Association must be abdlished and corruption funds eradicated. The powers of inspectors must he more clearly defined, The opportunity for distinction which presents itself to a competent military nan in Mulberry street is well-nigh an wnexampled one, No advancement the army offers him in time of peace can compare | with it, To bring the Police Department of New York to its highest | state of efficlency and to make public safety and order something more | than a meaningless phrase is a task of magnitude, But to accomplish It! successfully will be to become the most important man in the clty, The material ts there. Under the Police Commissioner is as brave, capable and individually efficient a body of uniformed men as can any-| where be found. The one thing lacking to their best serviceability is a man at the top with the ability to direct and control them. Has he been found? The Same To-Day and Yesterday. “Man,” says the Rev, Dr, Hirsch, of Chicago, “is much the same as he was a thousand years ago. The same elemental passions, ambitions and appetites obtain,” The utterance sourdds pessimistic by contrast with the cheerful optim. | {sm of Speaker Cannon, who thinks the sons and grandsons have im- proved on the fathers and are better physically, mentally and morally, If the advantage of the argument is not on Dr, Hirsch’s side, at least there are interesting modern parallels to corroborate his views, Have no Naboth’s vineyards been appropriated by unlawful means by the power- ful during the past year? Have no Esaus been swindled out of their birthrights for messes of pottage? Is the story of Potiphar's wife un-| known in Pittsburg? Specialties and Marriage Chances.) The engagement is announced of Miss Harriet A. Boyd, professor of archaeology at Smith College, to Prof. Charles E. Hawes, a recog- nized authority on archaeology at the University of Cambridge.

HIS ts about the Professional Patriot—the open human tunnel Whose T Uproarious and constant boast is that he is not the cringing, servile Subject of an effete potentate of the Old World, but a free-born citizen of a Republic, He doesn’t give his parents any of the credit for It ‘What he particularly likes about this country 1s that every man here i \ @5 good as every other man, if not better. Catch him bowing down to & IKtlo twisty-eyed dub Just because he happens to belong to a discredited and impoverished nobility! When he thinks of the spirftless, monarchy worshipping people of Burope doing the bowing-down act, he shows his teeth in such contempt that you might think he was trying to bite him self behind the ear, But when some little 2x4 princeling, with an onfon breath end just enough native intelligence to inhale a cigarette, comes to town and is put on exhibition at our town-hail in Madison avenue, what then of the Professional Patriot?
