nominated State Superintendent of In
fctructlon Schaeffer, and the state sen

Immediately confirming the appoint

The Spring Elections.
Great ado Is naturally made by the
Democratic press over the larsc string
of Popocratlc victories scored In the
recent municipal elections. They mag
nify It Into a harblnKer of great tri
umphs yet to come for Bryan, Altgeld
and their following.
It pays to be frank. The Republi
cans, In the colloquial language of pol
itics, undoubtedly got "swiped," and
that badly. Hut the episode Is to be
accounted for without giving any color
to the theory that the country Is under
going a revolution In political senti
ment. Take tho election In Chicago
for example. There Harrison, the suc
cessful Popocratlc candidate for mayor,
actually rolled G.00O votes le&s than
Bryan, who lost the city by over 50,
000; and was elected largely because
the Republican strength was split In
two, causing easily 50,000 Republicans
to remain nway from the polls. We are
not In possession of the facts In each
of the other cities concerning which our
friends, the enemy, are so jubilant;
but we dnre say the conditions In them
were similar.
The most casual glance over the po
litical records will show that the party
which wins a presidential election and
gets busied with the pursuit of ap
polntlvo offices Invariably suffers re
verses at the next ensuing local elec
tions. While the victors In the na
tional campaign are botheilng their
heads about the dissection and appor
tionment of the party pie the opposi
tion, with pangs of hunger intensified
by the odor, work like demons of de
spair to capture the municipal crumbs,
and generally succeed. That Is all
there Is to the result last Tuesday.
It of course teaches Republicans to
beware of unnecessary dissension, and
may have a temporarily expansive ef
fect upon the buoyancy of the Bryanlte
movement, but further than this there
Is no need to consider. When It comes
to serious matters of state the people
have well learend that they cannot
afford not to trust the Republican
party.
The appointment of Theodore Roose
velt to the assistant secretaryship of
the navy puts In the federal service at
an Important point a man who has
never failed in any position of trust,
and who has unusual equipment, In
cluding high character. Indomitable
energy and practical Ideas.
tlon of his Idea of the cure ns of the
disease. To correct the foregoing sit
uation "let the government," ho says,
"provjdo sufficient icvcnue for all
emergencies, retire all demand notes,
Issuing In their place time bonds. Let
these bo handled through national
banks, as a basis for circulation, allow
ing them to Issue bank notes. The na
tional bank note has never been a men
ace to our treasury nor has It even
been talked of during all our gold and
silver war. Make the Issue, under the
dlrectlonof thegovernment, liberal and,
If possible under tho constitution, make
every dollar legal tender. Have no dis
tinction between any money In use ex
cept subsidiary coins and the larger de
nominations. Then scatter the useless
and Idle $100,000,000 of gold reserve now
In the United States treasury among
the American people, and thus wipe the
sliver question from off the slate. Let
the treasury department assume Its
natural function nf collecting and dis
bursing government revenues and ex
penses. Then let congress turn Its at
tention to our merchant marine and
provide suitable Inducements for cap
ital to pick up that almost forgotten
Industry. We now pay, to the owners
of foreign vessels, over $100,000,000
transportation charges each year. Why
not do that work under the American
Hag?"
One objection which this plan of cur
rency reform would encounter Is that
It contemplates the giving to the banks
of a dangerous control over the busi
ness activities of the people through the
lentrallzatlon In their hands of the en
tire note-Issuing power. We doubt If
such a proposition could win at a pop
ular election. This objection would bo
obviated If In place of time bonds for
bank purposes the Brlsbln Walker Idea
of a gold bond, to be convertible at
postofllccs Into a legal tender national
certificate were substituted. There Is
little doubt that currency reform will
eventually be worked out along these
lines.

ly speaking, If this be true, whose Is
the blame?
There Is no reason why the United
States should not grow all Its o'.vn
sugar by tho beet proceos. Other coun

certainly can do, If we try.
It Is true that young Carter Harri

combined for mayor of Chicago, ran
on a platform declaring, among sev
eral other things, for free silver; but
the mayor of Chicago will not have
much to do with the currency question.
Quay at Harrlsburg.
Senator Quay by his visit to Harrls
burg and the views on state legislation
which he has made known thero dis
closes anew his .sagacity and practical
grasp on affairs. The programme
urged by him may be summarized as
follows:
(1). The passage of the reform legis
lation to which the Republicans of
Pennsylvania stand pledged In two
state platforms. This includes the pre
vention, so fnr as is feasible by law,
of the bleeding for political purposes
of office-holders; tho extension of civil
service principles over all public em
ployes In subordinate position; the re
quirement of public pay for public
franchises and tho strengthening of tho
legal safeguards about the whole
machinery of politics.
(2). Tho enactment into law of a pro
vision providing that state balances
on deposit shall draw public Interest.
(3). Tho erection of a new capltol In
accordance with the economical plans
prepared by Governor Hastings.
(4). The enactment of a direct Inher
itance tax for the replenishment of the
state's wasted revenues; and
(5). An early adjournment.
It Is difficult to see how tho most
captious factional antagonist of Colonel
Quay can have the hardihood to oppose
these measures. They fit public senti
ment precisely and If the legislature
will take the senator's advice In the
premises and stop Its fruitless waste
of time, It may yet earn the good will
of its constituency.
The bill to create a useless mining
department with fat salaries has passed
the senate and may reach the gov
ernor, but If It does he will have a
splendid chance to teach the legislature
a practical lesson In economy.
Easily Understood.
A business-like and sensible view of
the present condition of the govern
ment's finances Is taken In the Home
Magazine by Marcus A. Miller. "If
a man In. business," he says, "were to
borrow all his capital on demand, keep
ing a cettaln amount as a reserve, and
had to publish how he stood with the
world each day In the morning papers,
and some bright morning his reserve
was shown depleted, how long would it
be before he would find all his demand
paper staring him In the face ocr his
counter? This has practically been our
system of finance, only worse, during
the last administration, because suffi
cient revenue was not provided, When
things were rolling In faster than out,
nobody thought of gold; one kind of
money was as good as another. But
when It showed up the other way In
the treasury report, then there was a
'run on the bank.' "
U Mill- 1 liinlrt In hl risaorln.
An Issue of Growing Moment.
The argument of Senator Elklns In
the senate on Monday In favor of dis
criminating duties on imports shipped
in ioreign-owneu vessels was a thor
oughly prepared and Impressive discus
sion of this question, and we recom
mend that all who take interest In the
subject send to him for a copy of It.
The address was listened to with close
attention by an assemblage of the
brightest minds In Washington and
seems from all accounts to have made
a profound Impression.
"Under a proper policy of encourage
ment to American shipping," said he,
"the United States, with Its 8,000 miles
of seacoasts. Its navigable rivers and
lake coast, line harbors, variety of cli
mate, productive capacity, rapidly in
creasing population. Its position on the
globe Asia on one side with 600,000,
000 and Europe on the other side with
400.000,000 of people should be the lead
ing commercial and maritime power of
the world. This would lie the proud
position of the United States today had
protection to American Interests on the
sea granted by the founders of the
government In the early legislation of
congress been continued. No nation
has ever been truly great or an Im
portant factor In tho affairs of the
world unless It has been great on the
sea. The United States cannot reach
Its full growth and measure of prog
ress until Its shipping and commerce Is
relatively equal to Its Industries on
land. The United States pays $300,000
every day, or nearly $3 per capita per
annum, to foreign shipowners for car
rying what Its people sell and buy.
This enormous sum or most of It, should
le saved to the people and the coun
try, and would be under a proper policy
of aid to shipping."
In reply to the argument that a 10
per cent, discriminating duty would
provoke retaliation from other nations,
Senator Elklns pointed out that from
England alone would retaliation be
damaging, and that If England wore to
retaliate she would simply Increase the
cost of her necessary food Imports. It
Is worthy of remembrance that every
possible form of retaliation was tried
when we Imposed discriminating 3utles
before, but It did not stop the growth
of our merchant marine or prevent the
spread of our foreign trade. The dis
criminating duty of 10 par cent, pro
posed In the Elklns bill Is defended as
the one effective method of stimulating
American shlp-buildlng. In subsidies
we cannot compete with England.whlch
can offer J2 to our $1. Free shlps would
also continue England in the bc.Uo of
advantage. But the sharp prod of a
discriminating duty would force for
eign exporters to the United Slates
to ship their merchandise In Yankeo
bottoms, and with this demand once
established, our own ship yards would
speedily do the rest.
This is rightfully coming Into prom
inence aa one of the vital Issues of the
hour, and It Is gratifying to see- tho
Republican party fortified on Impreg
nable ground.
The new Democracy can be forgiven,
perhaps for eschewing socks, as In tho
case of Jerry Simpson, linen collars,
as In the personage of Richard Park
Bland, and splke-talled coats, a la Joe
Ilolley; but for the sake of morals we
trust that the disrobing will proceed
no further.
Perhaps Pennsylvania, after all, Is
destined to faro better nt the putron
age table than might have been sup
posed when the first course was being
served.
Tho point at which the whole scheme
of arbitration must defer Itself until
humanity Improves seems to have been

Washington. April 7.-II. A. Penrose,
who Is a candidate for governor of Ari

because of his relationship to Scnutor
Penrose, of Pennsylvania. Tho allega

Senator Penrose, with annoying embar
rassment to both. P.ut his Arizona
friends Insisted upon presenting his name
to the president, and It is not only a
mlstnke but an Injustice to Mr. Penroso
to assume that ho Is the candidate of
ono or both of tho Pennsylvania nenat

port of both, being a native of Philadel
phia nnd well known In that community.
Is qulto natural, but ho is not depending

Young Mr. Bailey's refusal to go to
President McKlnlcy's dinner to the ways
and means commltteo because ho would
not wear a dress suit reminds Walter
Wellman of the manner In which Tom
Reed and Bob Cousins happened to be
como such fast friends. When tho young
Iowa congressman was a new man hero
ho went out ono evening to a dinner
party, and when he returned to tho
Shorcham, attired In his evening clothes
and with a pink In his coat, Reed and a
lot of other congressmen wero sitting
about the ofllce. Cousins felt a little
awkward In his claw-hammers, as every
man does till ho becomes accustomed
to wear them, and he looked about to
sco If tho others wero watching him.
Reed saw his opportunity to take tho
youngster down a peg or two, and ho
went up to the Iowa mnn and drawled
this strange question in his yankeo
drawl:
"Say, Cousins, did you ever havo the
ectch?"
Tho young statesman from Iowa
thought ho was dono for. Ho saw that
evoryono was getting ready to laugh at
him. Ho blushed to the roots of his
hair. But ho did not lose his head. A
happy thought came to him Just In tho
nick of time.
"Well, If I did," ho retorted, "It wasn't
tho presidential Itch."
Tho laugh was on Reed. Tho big
speaker's sides shook with merriment nt
his own expense. Reed likes a man who
can hit back sharply, nnd from that
moment ho and Cousins havo been fast
friends.
This story Is told on Senator Hanna:
Ono day last week an excessively modest
man made his way Into tho senator's
room. Ho wanted mi office, but he was
not bold about It. In fnct ho wns very
timid and apologetic. He made all man
ner of excuses for being there. '
"That's enough of that," said Mr. Han
na; "don't apologize. I don't llko to hear
you talk that way. Thero Is nothing for
you to apologizo for. You aro an Ameri
can citizen, a good Republican, and last
yenr you worked hard for tho ticket.
Hold up your head llko a man nnd ask

"Last year I was out looklntr for lust
