Many doubters of the Inability of our new wards to lenrn liow to iiuve-in thttns'elves have been known to express fctinllar doubts about the pelf-ffoveriiliitt nblllty of ilio gtinrilluns tluiiipolvci. Nothing of importance 1h accomplished In this practical world by men who s)ml Uielr tlmo in framing ttotihU. A Ilu-Aetion. The Philadelphia Record, Kltliough stnuchly antagonlHtlc to Senator Quay, takes at last the sensible position with reference Li the senatorial deadlock that the TVmocratlc ltvinbei-H of tin; legislature tU-perve hoihc reciprocal tic knowlcdni'iurnt fron. the Itenublleaii bolters of the? stubborn loyalty they have Hhown In holding their lorc-c-. sol idly together for tlorso A. ,lc-uUn, thiiM enaAArngr the Wanamnkar minority to block Quay's re-election. The Kci-oi-tl adds: "Havlwr had tnoiuhs In whlrli make up their minds, mil huvliiK failed, to HRree amonc thrnieHeM upon u candidate for the United l.itei sen 1 storalilp, not bint" sano or HeiiMllile- Is Iwffc for the AiUi-Quav foie-es to do ex cept to throw their xolltl vote foi (tenure , -.Imiks, thusi defeating Quay and j--u-Ing before the people of lViimvlvnnlu noNvanquished. with their tails between CTieil' Icks, but victorious, and justified os deliverers who hud s-uved the com monwealth from un Indelible iitnum-lnv- Tlrta i not pti telly true as u state ment of favt; lieir Is oi.e other sane bourse left for the bolters, a course saner tlmn that which the Reeoid suc jeUk: namely, to acknowledge the er ror and folly of tlilr way and to repent with becoming meekness by casting lb" united IVepublican strength of the lei telature for the Republican i-iiih-ii nomlnne. This course would -.ecni to be rendered doubly desirable ly the ! verdlet of the recent primaries, which has been overwhelmingly faviiintiler tc Quay.

The puojile at hllRe are beuln iiini! to nali.e what we have known nil alons; thai the pieent lisht WKaliist him, althuiiKh can led on under the spei luus KUise of lel'orm, Is In reality a corihiiliticy of many of the worst eie. ments In Pennsylvania politics led hy men srnllty of every evil practice charged against Quay and kuIUv. also, as hi- is not alle-setl to be. of the abom inable vice of hypocrisy. The people niHV temporarily have had their luili; nrent affected bv the din and fury of the pre-conoerled onslaught upon Quay with Its iTownii'K liijunioe of it trumped up prosecution in court, hut tlie lnps nl time has enabled them to acqutn? a true estimate of he as sailants and by comparison Quay's po. litiral character pains In whiteness every day. If ttin bnltels are Republicans they hcutlci end tlw deadlock by re-i-bcihm Quay. 11 thev are not, let them aicept the logic of their political levolt and Vote fmnkly io-r the Detuofiiu links. Mr. Rrymi does not propose to em now under the suise of .lefreivunian simplicity. The Cause of the Delay. Th eritlclsm wldcli has been offetvil nfralnst the administration that It should have usoil force against the Kil l pi new much earlier than it did and that, had It clone so at the lirst mo vo cation ABUllittldo's power for nilM-lileC would speedily have collaiised, Is pi oh. ably correct in Its conclusions, hut It ovelooks the law In the case. Suvs a rurrent dispatch from Manila: "(ien Hrul Otis asserts that lie was iusti ucted from Washhifiton not to assume the of fenBlve until Spain had ratUled the peace treaty. The theory Is that all territory outside of Manila Is Spanish territory and Spain is responsible for ill damages done to foreign property by the Insurgents. I.aiRe claims have already bsen filed by forelsiiei.s for dnmtise done to vested interests." This view of the mutter may have escaped the hasty critics, but it had to be kept In mind by the admlnlsi ra tion. Under the terms of the protocol we had no rlKht to hold troops In the Philippines outside of Manila city and its immediate environs pemllni; the disposition of the archipelago. The city of Manila was ours by right of oomiuost and the protocol recimnlzed our rlRht to control It, but everj scpiar. foot of ground outside of the city was legally Spanish Kiound until 'formally transferred by ratification of the treaty and every Inhabitant without other citizenship was legally a subject of Ppaln, with which country the protocol had suspended hostilities. Under these conditions, the American stWdlers had J-Imply to keep quiet and awali the progress of diplomacy. Day by da.v the Klllplnos grew more Insolent and overbearing, but the hands of the American soldleis wcie lied. Hay by day the maudlin gush of the antl-ad-mlntatrutlon senators at Washington, by postponing tho Inevitable accept ance of the pence troatv, added to the embarrassment of our troops at Manila and gave new courage of Impudence to their llver-rolored nuiioyi; but under the law of nations Me could re new hostilities with tho subjects of Spain only 'ill self defence, Finally a tlmo clinic when the Fili pinos grew teckless In their effrontery and started to shoot at their deliverers. This act of suicidal folly cut (he thongs of Intcruat'onal law and iniule Otis and his men free In an inslant to at tend to the very evident necessities of the sluintk.ii. liow well they have pel formed this obligation subseiiiteiit events have shown. Ilui It is u mis take to blame either them or the ad mlnb.tiailon for IiiivIiik put oiT the hour of reckoning so long. That delay was wholly the woik of the long-winded senatorial critics. If It ere nut for an atrocious crime occasionally the svmpathles of the mawkish would piobably alwavs ie main dormant. The Next Calamity Cry.

James Whltcomb nily. NEWS AND COMMENT The Anglo-Anietlcnn sentimental nlll mice lias been shlevvdly t xptatlieil bv n I'm Is journal, la 1'ntrle. It has cllscov eied that "from .lunuary lo August, W t'nl. Hay, tho AmeilcHti Anibiisiuior In J.oiiilon. spent more than llfteen millions nu the lltltlsh ptess. He opened an un limited credit at tho city ot London branch or a meat American bunk; ihe Spanish Amb.isudoi has ulten some val uable Infol illation which leaves no doubt on this point. It was not the newspapers which were paid. The Urlltsli newspa pers, It must b admitted, rarely take money; but. a they have endless columns to nil, they have recourse to the tele graphic iiKincles, and that explains how during the Cuban war the Kngllsh news papers received dully services of live und Mv thousand words by means ot a special apparatus Installed In the editorial olllee, and which turned from morning to nlfiht like a windmill. All Ibis matter was supplied to the Urltlfh newspapers at the cost of lltclr ordinary sub scription to the telegraphic agency and it was m.iterhily Impossible1 for the agencies to recoup themselves without m. incuse subvention from the Wushlngtou Uovernnient. That explains tho Meetly and systematic hostility towsrd fcipaln of all the false news which has enabled the Americans to deceive the world. With jilt the employment of such means the t'nltTd States would never have succeeded In crushing Spain In the lace or a Kurope In stinctively hostile lo llielr expansion." Apropos of the deafness of Joseph Meillll, the launder of the Chicago Tribune who dbd recently, this r.necdoto Is told by a writer In the Tlines-lleruld: When ll'ir licou Mas lirst nominated for President the convention was held In Chicago. (Inja ham was a strong candidate for tho num. Inatloii. Theie was a general understand ing after Mr.,Medill had secured Chicago as the rhice In which the convention Hiotihl be lie.d (hut it should be considered n neutral ground and that Ihe ChleagJ dailies should not make editorial comment on 'he doings of the convention and th vailous candidates until after the nomin ation. Nevertheless da.v alter day Mr. .Medlll hud an edltoiial favoring liar, ilson ami smashing the other enudldnt-'s.
