That was an intelligent reply of An drew CarncRlo when, upon being ex amined hb a Juror, he said thnt while personally opposed to capital punish ment ho would not let that opinion prejudice ills llndlng of fact. The Juror Is not responsible for the punishments proscribed by law for capital of fences. His duty begins and ends with weighing carefully the evi dence. If u murder Is deliberate and unprovoked In. should give his verdict aiiiirdlimly.leavlng to the law-making W.dy the responsibility for adjusting the iiunnltv. Tod oil i the scruples on this sub ject professed In . court arc merely mnke.shlft's for the evasion of n pub lic duty. Men who would willingly Nolunteer to shoulder n musket and go to war, thoie to 1:111 or to be killed, It called by their country, think that the tunic country's ca'l to Jury service is u summons of light moment, to bo dodged by any expedient which ln i:"iiiilty may sugKest. Such men would fid Insulted If -told that cowardice In the one matter Is Just as reprehensible ns In tho other; yet this Is the fact. The besj citizenship Is not that which I ! I'oiKllcst to display Its- patriotism only. In time nf public excitement when the pyes'of the multitude are opened to take' notlc and the hands of the rmiltutido pi isrd to applaud.- -The b(-st patriotism la that which does cbeer lully Its duty to the Ity, the county, the mate and the nnllim. day by day and week by week, whether seen by men or unseen; nnd gets Its reward front the coiiselousin ss of duty done, whether there be other rewards or n"t. We are entering as n people upon n period of large new responsibilities which can be successfully curried only bv tho patient and steady cvery-dav patriotism of which wo have been speaking. This large burden will not seem heavy If we accustom ourselves to bearing it by exercising cheerfully upon tho smaller burdens of good oil'.. ssenshlp which surround us close nt hand. Hut good government must b. built from the foundations up. If the foundations are right the superstruc ture Is not llkily to topple over, no niat t"r how high It Is reared. Kx-1'renident Cleveland Is to visit Cuba. Ills Spanish friends ought to show him high honor. It will bo re membered that he proposed once to help them put down the insurgents. The Itace Problem. The race problem as intensified by recent occurrences In the Kouth is cap able of solution along two lines, and along two lines only. The negro must be educated. The law must be enforced Justlv. It has long been the belief of such liberal-minded and far-sighted negroes as Professor Hooker T.Washington that the negro when In a condition of illit eracy nnd economic Inferiority as is his lot In most of the Southern states does his own cause harm by mixing assertively In polities and by disput ing with the whites for political con trol. This Is not n denial of the fact that under the constitution he has a perfect right to political equality; it Is (i recognition of existing conditions. A writer In the Washington Star elab orates this thought In these words: "What the negro needs first of ull Is development, and there Is the widest scope for this expansion, outside of the Held of politics or of Intimate, familiar Intercourse with the dominant race. The negro should generally accept sclf el'facement as a controlling political factor, even In those communities where his numerical preponderance confers upon him the abstract right. This policy should certainly be adopted In those Instances where the material holdings of tlie race represent only an insignificant fraction of tho substan tial Interests of the community. Tho elective franchise Is destined to be of Inestimable benellt to the race If it Is used wisely and with discretion. In a majority of the northern and western states the political parties are so evenly divided that the colored vote has de cisive weight. AVhorever possible this vote should be utilized to effect Just legislation and wholesome public senti ment. But to state the truth mildly, the negro Is not yet qualified to exor i Iso political control, In state, town or county, according to the standards of western civilization. A knowledge of this truth on the part of the colored race Is essential to Its true develop, ment along those substantial lines which count for progress. Wherever tho negro hns nttempted to control tho political machinery tho result has nl waj'B redounded to his detriment. Tho reconstruction regime In tho south worked lasting injury to tho colored race. Tho best talent of tho popula tion was diverted from productive und moral pursuits Into tho whirlpool of politics. Tho minds of tho young were vitiated by looking with admiration upon corruption In high places. Ani mosities wero engendered which will emburrass tho progress of tho nice for generations to come, Is'or can It be said that tho professional negro pol itician, from tho days of reconstruction until now, has been of any lasting benefit to his race. It retiring from the actlvo Hold of politics and direct ing the energy which has hitherto dis sipated over tho political area into pro duutlve channels, nnd striving to build up the people In moral, mental and ma terial directions, tho negro will not only be moving ajong'tho jno of least resistance, but of tho greatest useful ness also," On tho other hand, this Incisive writ er points out that In tho final adjust ment of causes and consouuencos the victims of violence nnd outrage, will suffer less than the perpetrators of them. "The last Mr. Douglass," says he, "was fond of prophesying thnt, In course of time, the so-called negro problem would be looked upon ns es sentially the white man's problem. Dally occurrences arc making tho truth of this prophecy more and more ap parent. Tho whlto race represents the dominant clement In all parts of this country, and Is responsible to tho en lightened conscience of the civilized world for the suppression nnd punish ment of crime, tho maintenance of law and order and the continuance of u peaceful regime. This is tho whlto niuti'n side of the question. That ho is the Inevitable ruler of the south no one any longer questions. Hut Is he not answerable to the enlightened opinion of mankind to rulo In Justice and equity? If he does not protect life and property nnd maintain law nnd social order, what bedomes of his boasted right to rule? The doctrine of "the divine light of race' is no more sacred or acceptable to the common sense of mankind .than Its twin rela tive, the 'divine right of kings,' but both must be submitted to tho human test of practical fitness and efficiency. Although the white race has the pow er, It must prove Its right to rule by ruling right." The conscience of the nation Is pow erful enough, when aroused, both to educate the negro, to provide means for his peaceful employment In Indus trial pursuits and to require of the whites who assume political superior ity that they shall "prove their right by ruling right." The conscience of the nation must be aroused. Senator Quay seems willing that Mr. Wannmaker should go ahead In fish ing down tho legislative stream. Leonard Wood. The attorney general of the United States, in his brief but significant ad dress nt the New York Chamber of Commerce dinner on Tuesday night, dismissed ns unworthy of notice the complaint of the aiitl-cxpanslonlsts that we lack administrative talent in this country and should, therefore, as sume no new responsibilities. "Only a year ago," said Mr. Criggs, "In the city of Washington there was a young man, straight, lusty und vigorous, who was simply a surgeon in the regular army. Today he is the magnificent and successful governor of Santiago. And if this country will keep to tho front In tho future such men as Leon ard Wood all the arguments of dis tress and of Ill-success that have been prophesied will fall to the ground." By mi interesting coincidence, as wo wire reading this fine tribute from the personal representative of tho presi dent of the United Stales our eye lit upon a letter from Santiago, written by Malcolm McDowell to the Chicago Itecord. which Includes some mention In detail of General Wood's work. Says Mr. McDowell: "I asked General Wood about live minutes after he had taken Ills scat at the desk formerly used by the Spanish governor general what he would do first. 'Clean out about 200 years of dirt,' lie replied. That very hour the first gang of Cubans was put to work on the streets. The first week of his administration Governor Wood was In the saddle eighteen hours a day. lie personally inspected every foot of every street, alley, court nnd lane in old Santiago. He made a house to house canvass, examining Interior courts, rooms nnd hallways, and be fore the Spaniards nnd Cubans of the city knew what had happened they were whitewashing their houses, tug ging dirt out of their courts, sweeping their halls, cleaning their rooms nnd obediently and dutifully filling barrels with refuse, which was set out every morning on the curbs of the narrow sidewalks for tho carts nnd quarter masters' wagons which patrolled the town. "Tho military governor of Santiago was a veritable Pooh-Hah; ho was mayor, corporation counsel, commis sioner of public works, superintendent of police, commissioner of health, oil Inspector, Inspector of weights and measures, port physician, harbor mas ter, supeilntcndent of street and alley cleaning, gns Inspector, city attorney, city collector, city treasurer, city clerk, chief Janitor of the city hall, desk ser geant of the central station nnd police magistrate. In this continuous muni cipal performance General Wood played all parts without leaving tho stage, sometimes acting two or more roles at once. "As police magistrate lie was unique. Most of the men brought before him were Americans, stevedores who had slipped from their ships In the harbor or at the docks and had tried to get the better of Santiago rum; soldiers who had run the guard or sneaked through the lines for a day In the city; civilians who found themselves In San tiago and had attempted to run things on tho wide-open policy. The culprits were lined up in tho broad entrance of thv' governor's palace In the morning, with nn armed soldier guarding each end of tho line. The corporal of the gunrd and sergeant of the patrol acted the part of prosecuting witnesses, and ninety-nine times out of n hundred the accused turned state's evidence on himself, pleaded guilty nnd threw him self on tho mercy of the court. Gen eral Wood was a law unto himself. He addressed himself to the accused man, and generally three or four ln clslvo questions served to convict or discharge. "Sometimes tho culprits became fighting mad when sentenced, and tho corridor would echo with oaths and vociferous appeals to Justice and loud threats to bring tho matter before tho president or somo congressman. But General Wood, as Impassive as a curb stone, never raised his voice above an ordinary conversational tone. He would say 'Take him away' as he would say 'Good morning,' and then would turn to tho next case. In a short tlmo his fame as a pollco magistrate went abroad, and did moro to keep the streets of Santiago free from disorderly characters than all tho nrmed guards J and patrols. It Is a broad, wide jump from arranging a plan which would bring the existing civil code In har mony with the stern mandates of tho military code to passing sentence upon a dozen drunks nnd disorderlies. But ho passed from the height to the depth easily, from tragedy to comedy, with out the change of a muscle In his face. I rover saw him perplexed, excited, elated or depressed, for his features at nil times wore tho same mask tho face of a man who fuly realized tho great responsibilities Imposed tipon him without the llrst suggestion of shrinking a single one of them." In three months General Wood has reconstructed tho city of Santiago and Is now rapidly civilizing the country round about. The city used to yield up CO to 100 corpses from yellow fever a day. Since Wood cleaned It a yellow fever death has not been reported In two months. Uuslness is already bet ter thnn It was ere the war broke out nnd confidence is fur better. In short, In this wonderfully brief time a man nn year ago unknown outside u nar row circle of personal friends has ac complished what could almost without exaggeration bo cnlled a modem mir acle of regeneration, nnd the American nriny nnd navy are full of young men of his calibre. Well may the attorney penernl of the United States say: "it this country will keep to tho front In the future such men ns Leon ard Wood nil tho arguments of dis tress nnd Ill-success that have been prcphcslcd will fall to the ground." K. W. Hardin, the newspaper corre spondent at Manila, whom President McKlnloy appointed a. special commis sioner to investigate the Industrial nnd financial conditions of the Philippine Islands, is now In Wushlngton. He Is enthusiastic over the natural resources of tho Islands and anticipates no se rious trouble with their Inhabitants but sr,ys some of our olllccrs nt Manila aro sm conceited and overbearing that tho natives aro Justly Indignant. This prob ably explains that Hong Kong memor ial of protest. m Ttccognltlon by the world of the In creasing importance- of tho United States Is attested by the announced desire of Austria to raise her repre sentative at Washington to the rank or an ninbassador.l Turkey has recent ly intimated u similar deslie. Other powers which have not yet done so will no doubt fall In line. Uncle Sam Is u larger figure In the International Held tbnn he was before McKlnley be came president, and ho has not yet ceased to grow. Nervous editors should not continue to bo surprised that Agulnnldo does not throw down his shooting irons and yield up every advantage that he has over his Spanish foes before ho knows what tho outcome Is to bo. Agulnnldo lntH frequently demonstrated In the past that he is no "chump." Olco-mnrgarine dealers, it is said, have become emboldened by recent de cisions of the Supreme court and are selling their wares more extensively. This ought to have tho effect of In creasing the lubrication of tho railroad sandwich. A I'lttPburg steel mill has Just doubled its plant for tho manufacture of steel cars. With Plttsburgers pros perity is not a phantom but a con spicuous and happy fact. Scranton's turn Is coming. General Harrison Is to receive a fee of $100,000 from Venezuela for hand ling that country's case before the ar bitration commission. This Is finan cially better than being president. .Pittsburg is soon to have a threo-thousand-dollar hippopotnmus which will be named Admiral Dewey. Is this a slight upon Andrew Carnegie and Christopher Magec? The Wllkes-Barro Leader nominates John T. Lenahan for United States senator. If It wero not for his politics we would take pleasure In seconding the motion. The Illinois Steel company is about to make structural steel. The Lacka wanna Iron and Steel company should not let "I dare not" wait upon "I would." "Coin" Harvey succeeds In getting almost everything but coin for his con tribution box. His stock of advice Is prodigious. Gideon Marsh has probably arrived at the conclusion that Mr. Wanamak er was only fooling. "THE PARTING OF THE WAYS." From the N. Y. Commercial-Advertiser. Their is a deal of solemn preaching among persons of Impatient imagination, who deslro to discuss tho probloms of the luturo before tho problems of tho present havo been settled, about tho "pnrting of the ways" at which the country now stands, ready to chooso whether to con tinue tho coursa of isolation and internal devlopment it has pursued hitherto, or a new career of exterior expansion nnd world relations. In point of fact tho courso this courtry Is to pursuo will bo decided In tho futre, as it has been de cided in tho past, by operation of eco nomic laws and world forces solemn preaching can neither stimulate nor check. Theso laws and forces will de tcrmlno tho direction economic Industry and tho energy of trade In this country shall take, nnd that direction will govern Its political policies, not be governed by them. - o Present discussion of tho details of our policy In relation to tho late colonics of Spain Is not only premature but futile. That policy will not be framed until tha immediate- Issue, of tho war shall havo been settled by tho expulsion of Spain. Then It will bo settled, after careful study ni d long do'.iberatlcn on our part, proba bly, but by in com clous operation of forc es stronger than our national will. The laws of uatlonul development will fix our courso In relation to tho woild external to our owp states, and our policy in re lutlon to tho Into colonies of Spain will havo to bend to this law. In one senso wo havo not reached the parting of tho ways; In another, wo havo passed it, be causo tho courso of national development had undergone a most profound change before tho accident of this .Spanish war cama to set wiseacres talking about It. Rut for that chango the war mlKht have been, but the effects which seem to pro ceed from, It, IhoitKli they really proceed from deeper causes, would not have fol lowed. o This country started unconsciously upon a new path nf national flcvelnment n few yenrs ago, when it ccuscd to compete with other countries for Its own markets nnd began to compete with them for thu markets of tho world. That mighty change altered tho relation of the Amc-rl-cun pcoplo to Itself and tho world, and drafts a whole train of novelties In Uncut policy, foreign policy ani policy of do mestlc government after It. It exacts already new views of tariff and lcrcnuo legislation; It hns changed tho American point rl view qf forc.ners, whom we are to icgard hereafter us Imyirii more than tellers; It r-as altered our view of dlplonacy, whlc'1 Is to bo a practical thing hereafter, rel.ittng to commercial opportunities and industrial openings; it prcsetili the whole world to us as a Held for tho exerclro or our national energy. . -o This Is tho parting or the ways which Is Inicoitnnt, and we passed It nlmost without seeing It. Tho question of po litical rxpnnslon nnd colonial develop ment would havo little vitality but for this thrilling sonso of social expan sion nnd Industrial development behind It. The political question Is sucomlnry to and dependent on tho social. Wo shall tako on no new burdens and responsibilities abroad unless tho American peoplo shall bo convinced that tho new exigencies of national life require it. Wo shall pur sue our own national Interest as shrewd ly ns we did In our century of Internal de velopment, nnd shi.ll not adopt new the ories of national policy utlers It Is clear that now conditions requite it. Hut It is too late to tnlk about choosing the new- conditions. They are here, nnd our na tional llfo must bo shaped to them. NEWS AND COMMENT TUB marvelous growth of the lire In surance Iniblnrt-A In Imglaml and America Is a fact made plain by figures recently collected by Will lam K. Curtis, Dining tho last twenty-six years." he writes In the Chi cago Itecord, "tho Invested assets of Kngllsh llfo insurance companies have grown from JJCO.OW.OOO to the enormous sum of $l,17fl.000,0u0.

As a revenue raiser the Haines law is such a pronounced success that we may expect this winter to seo a renewal of tho effort at Harrlsburg to adapt It to Pennsylvania. In the last year of the old law there wero "3,257 licenses to sell liquor Issued In New York stute, and tho total net receipts were !,Ui7,l:!l.ul. Under the Haines law, for the year ending April HO. 1S&S, a total of 27.4" certificates to sell liquor were Issued, the total receipts be ing $H,K5S,ls0.fi7. The decrease In the num ber of saloons wus 4.S00, while the In crease In tho receipts was 7,711,073.27. The Increase In tho icceipts for this fiscal year, ending April CO, IS03. will be still larger, ns it is known thnt the total re ceipts have been over $12,000,(KH).
