It would be an outrage to tip up the lilqh M'liool faculty for reasons fulling clioi t of absolute necessity. To do this on account fit factionalism or in a splilt of tet.'illatlnn would be to Incur fiom the people n cyclone of lebuke.

They did their uoik not only f-wluly but also .surely and well. Alger Must Go. The statement of Governor rinsrco outlining Ills attitude with refi-rence to President MeKinley makes plain that in ills Itch for MMiatcnlal honor the present secietaiy of war has made an alliance with an enemy of Ills own chief. There Is nothing In such con duct out of keeping with the public's estimate of Itus.sell A. Alger. Tho mail who would violate the sanctity of peisonal cnrrosponileni e and make pub lb a garbled letter hoping by means of If to nusn a biiive soldier at the front, as Algt r did In Vilonel Itoo-e-volt's c.t-o, is capable of stooping to almost any depth In fiirthrniiio of political ambition or pilvate indiotlve ncss: and the man vim sees no impio pilety In holding on to a cabinet oflioo while cngage'l In a factional light for another position, prefciiing to in ins einbarrat-Miient on his paity and ills president in place- of slmwlng to llieni f-omo piactlcal appreciation of past confidence and honms, would, it I" easy to believe, expeilence no compunc tions In lomblning with any set nf enemies of the administration who held out the piomlse of political assist ance. It lias for some time been manifest that a large inajoilty of the Ameiican people, without regal cl to politics, have Fo far lost eonlldence in Secretary Al ger that tlie-v have viewed his contin uance In ofllco with growing Impatience and looked forward with Increasing eagerness to the moment of his inevi table retliement. This fact is fully understood by both t-'euotary Alger and Piesident MeKinley. The former lias chosen to exhibit towan) this pub lic sentiment a spiiit of iuitable brav ado. The latter, animated by a mis placed seno of personal loyalty, though awate of Alger's unlltness, pre fers to shield him and gcneiously takes unto himself tho criticism and the blame. AW call tills loyalty misplaced because it is not deserved. I5y his own acts Secietary Alger shows that ho Is Incapable of appreciating It: that U rep resents a lineness of character unfami liar to him and beyond his powers of comprehension. On tho political side, moreover. It Is clangeious as well as unfair to the public Inteiests which Algol's retention as a source of Iirlta tlon, Intrigue and dlstuibance In the var department sacrlllces. The time has now come In the vai le gated history ol this peculiar cabinet eplsodo when public opinion must lie considered and j expected. If Alger will not go voluntailly he must be invited to go. Tho people have grown slcl; nf him and they will not longer tolerate him even to please a man they admire m much a.s they do the piesljent of the "United States. We have received mm ked copies of the Boston Journal containing Interviews with Mrs. Mary Raker Eddy In which the mother of Christian Science em phatically denies a i event lcpnrt of her death, Mis, Eddy's testimony on such u point ought to carry convic tion. The Rescue of France. In speaking yesterday of tho ote of confidence given the new Fiench min istry as overwhelming we had In mind the exceptional pet lis of the situation, In the two chambeis the government received -130 otes to a total of 26Z for the combined opposition, or almost two thirds. When wo rpmonVber the ex treme leluctanie with which the mom liers of the present ministry accepted oflicc and call into review the huge variety of factors which contributed Just at this time to Involve the security of tho Fiench republic In menace, the conclusion Is Justified that the govern ment's Indorsement on Monday was re markable. Apart from Its political significance) ns jfliowlng the unsuspected latent strength of republican institutions In France, tho Incident also has a moral aspect peitlnent for study everywhere. Thioughout tho entire courso of tlw Dreyfus agitation, which Is tho ciux nf Monday's situation, a considerable nentlment, not only In France but ev cryw here, currying with It wine meas ure of ecclesiastical sanction, taught Insistently the Jesuitical doctilnc that the question of personal Justice for Dreyfus was wholly subordinate nnd Inferior to the question nf tho tran quility of the French people and to the pteservatlon unshaken of their confi dence In the at my. "The fate of one man matters nothing," this sentiment taught fiom pulpit nnd through press, "compnied with the fate of a nation. Let It be conceded thnt Dreyfus was in reallt.v Innocent, so long as the French people believe him guilty because their beloved ax my has said so and so'long as the establishment of his Innocence would Involve the shattering of the popular faith In the one institution In France which yet letnlus their confi dence and serves to ballast their racial Instability, better tha't he suffer martyrdom than that the agitation over his fate should re-lnstnl the com mune." The end, It was held, w'ould Justify tho disieputablc means. Hut the honorable men of France, the men who have studied stnteciaft from the standpoint of public duty and under the guidance of conscience, ie fused to be botraed 'by such Insidious casuistry Into a compiomlitt with crime. The held to the position that a gov ernment which cannot exist save on a basi'i of disrespect foi peisonal Jus tice might better be knocked down nnd lehullt, since Its existence on such a basis would negative the chief purpose for which governments are Instituted among men. And so believing, they went to wotk to cut out the cancer of Injustice and anny Intilgue which was gnawing at Fiance's vitals and they ate succeeding, it would appear, better than they themselves had expected. Tills government will pi ess the claims of tho heirs of Frank Peats who de slie $10,000 from the government of Honduras. Peais was killed by a Hon duian soldier In February. Unless pay ment Is made soon a squadron will be sent down to Intel view the Ilondurans. Till-' Is a damage ease whole the ser vices of a supieme coin t Justice will not be required to cut clown the aw aid. Time for Kiuger to Come Down. Tho speech made at Hlrmlngham on Monday night by Josepn Chambeilaln, Hritlsh secretin y of state for the colo nies, constitutes the next thing to an ultimatum to the Doois. Mr. Cham berlain said the English government had tried to establish friendly relations with Piesident Krusrer. but all its ad vances had been leceivcd vlth con tempt. After cktmunclng Hoer methods In language of exceptional sevciity Mr. Chambeilaln said: "Four times since. Independence was gianted ve havo been on the veige of war with the Transvaal. It Is eironoous to say the I'lltlflt government wants war; but It Is ci'tullv enoneous to say that the government will draw back now that it lias put its hand to the plow. We hope the cffoits thnt aio now being made will lead to an amicable nirangciuent, lor (3ie.it litltaln only desires Justice, but theie comes a time when patience cni haidly be distinguished from weakness and when moral prc-suio be comes a faice, that cannot be ton tinned without Ins. of self-respect. I tiust that time may never come In this instance, but if It does, Ihitons will Insist upon Uncling tho means to secure a le.-uilt essential to the peace of South Aft lea." The applause which these sentiments evoked in niimlnghain will le-echo w hoi ever the merits of the controversy nie appieclated. The time has come In the development of modem civilization whn political obstacles to the just safe guai ding of inalienable human lights, whether existing In Cuba, In the Trans vaal, or among the Inlands of the 10 mote Pacific, must succumb to leason and diplomat y or else go down under the compulsion of folio. Patience In all these inevitable conflicts is both iieiessaiy and pialseuorlhy: foice should ever be the last recourse; but patience which conveys the Impiesslon of weakness or the conciliatory spiiit which Is mlsconstiued as Indecision only makes griater the iin.il lequire ment of foice and Is therefore sacrltiiial to the very peace which it would con serve. This Is a lesson for both branches of the Anglo-Saxon race. I.aura Jean Eibbey has undertaken to conduct a department in one of the New Yoik evening papcis In which she offers to comfott the isolated fiee of chaige who will confide their woes to her keeping by letter. There is now no reason why Hon. David Hill should not embrace the oppoitunlty to cheer up. Atvvater and Alcohol. Theie was recently pi lined In one of tho New Yoik papers nnd extensively copied tluoughout tho country a state ment purporting to eomo fiom W. O. Atvvater, piofessor of chemistry In Wesleyan unlvetslty, iclative to tho res-Hilts of an extended Investigation which he had conducted touching the effects of alcohol upon the human sys tem. In the course of tills statement Professor Atvvater was made to alllim that "alcoholic liquor, taken in moder ate quantity. Is not Injuiious, but on tho contrary, beneficial to the system" and that It could be so taken without any harmful icsults. When this nitlcle was brought by a gentleman lesldlng In Midelletown, X. Y., to Piofessor Atvvater's attention the professor wioto and the Mlddletown Dally Press of Juno 20 published the following letter, which Is interesting fiom both a scientific and u moral standpoint: "I have not seen the news paper article icfeired to, nor do I know anything whatever of its oiigin, but your letter leads mo to Infer thnt it must have enthely misrepresented my views nnd expressions regarding the effects of alcohol. I certainly never havo said that alcoholic liquors in moderate quantities may not he Injur ious. I have no doubt there are count less cases In which people take wmall quantities of alcohol, and do so habit ually without harm to health, but there are so many Instances in which mod erate uso leads to excessive use, and men oro ruined physically, mentally and morally by that excess, that I could not pay, and I do not see how any thoughtful man could bay that no harm comes from moderate di Inking, Indeed the exact opposite eeemi to me one of tho most scilous facts with which the physiologists, economists, sociologists and moralists of our time have to deal." It li due to Professor Atwnter that his opinion on this subject should be piesented correctly. m Mght on the heels of tho cyclones nnd heavy rnlns. Weather Chief Willis I. Moore fell Into the sea nt Cape May nnd enmu very nenr being drowned. And yet there are pemms who doubt the sincerity of the Weather Uureau. The Roosevelt Doctrine. Tho lemaikablo seiles of ovations tondeied to Colonel Theodore Iloose velt on his Journey to and fiom New Mexico was something more than a popular tribute' to a successful soldier. Although partly that, It was more broadly an outpouring of public np picclatlon of n couingeous personality dedicated to the public service on hon t'St Impulses. Not merely ns the soldier nor ns tho administrator docs Iloose velt appeal to the public Imagination, but In lils multifarious capacity us an all-round man. We got the true note In lloosovelt's character In the follow ing extinct from one of the numerous flvo-mlnuto speeches which he made in response to "hold-ups" along the line; "The Hough Hlik'is did their duty at the fiont. They did It because they were honest, because they were square. Now, It j mi opet honesty and squareness on the part of your solellcis, why shouldn't jou expect It of the men that jou put m olllce" The worst foe that the interests of tills eoiiiitiy hivo today is the man who gets into ollke and llien Is accounted tinai t because in steals and Is dishonest. Ills dishonesty is ouilookcd, put haps because he has got a public building for your town or litis dene something clss for jou, wlille at the same time he was untrue to volt and to himself. "Let nm tell ou n little storv to It lustrate this: When 1 hid a cattle latieli In Montana I hlied a man to work for me. e went out on the liuieb one day und came upon u mav click which had etraed fiom n neighboring inneh to my own. This man of mlnu tumbled tho maverick over and started to apply my brand to it. Said I: " 'What are you doing?' " 'Oh 1 ntn just rustling,' lie said "'Are .vou going to put my biand on that maventk?' ' 'Yes " 'You go up to the naichliousp.' said I to bltn, 'and get our time tonight. T tlcn't want to have anything to do with j eu If vou will steal lor mo jou will steal from me.' "Now. the point I want to make for .vou people and a'l the iveivday citizens of this c nuntry is that the public ofliclal who will steal for you will steal fiom vein, and that tho gieat woik to be done on iiur p.ut now s to sciutlnlze the dial actors of the men ou elect to of tiee and Insist that they Muill be scrupu lously honest in all their public as well as their private dealings." The Ameiican people at heait believe In tills doetilne, whether they are care ful to piactlce it on all occasions or not; and the man who does piactlce It fo.ulessly Is ptetty sine of their re spect. The liiyan leadeis who are piepared to forglvo gold Democrats who lepent and come Into the fold, have not thus fur been obliged to woik over time. Even Senator Foraker will probably tone ode that Editor Kohlsaat is some thing of a lighter when aroused. Colonel Fred Grant Is at Manila, hut Ills press bureau for some reason is singularly Inactive. A MODERN FABLE. (luce upon a time there, lived a Mali who had Political Aspitatlons. And It caiiio to rjas that tho .Man did make a Chrlsti.cn Endeavor to become Ruler of bis Counto. Hut the Inhabitants of bis Country had uiadu cllfieient arrange ments and dlilst choose for their Ituler a. Man clcpt the Advance Agent of i'losptrit.v. So the Man who had Po litical Aspirations figured thusly: If I can't bu the Whole Thing I c.ni at least be bis Advlcr. And thus It was that the Man with Political Aspiiatious van chose u Store tar j of War. And during Ids Incumbency bis Country did go to War with a Lathi Tilbe, and though the Latin Tilbs was badly wal loped. It was not because tho Secrctaiy of Win knew bis business, for ho was wont to make Blunders too numerous to mention; and the Inhabitants of Ills Country began to Muimur amongst themselves until, at Inst, One, braver than tho rest, aioso from tho Multitude and rematkccl, in a loud lono of voice, "Heslgn!" And tho Secietary of War nnsvveicd, saying1 "I retuso to Itelgn whilst I'nder Fire." And a vencrililn member of the Multitude arose nnd. with a smilo on his Features, said, "Thou didst not seem so anxious to be Under Viro fiom 'dl to V " And hero and tlnro from amongst the Multitude came u. Tit ter and tho People Chortled in their Ulee. For the Venerable Old Man was a Wise Old licozor, with a good memory, and what lie s.ibl was indeed Ttue. And tho Secietary of War waxed exceeding vrolh unci, tinning crimson In tho Coun tenance, exe'lalmed, "You People can't make a Fool of me!" And the Multitude arose and spoke In Unison, like unto tho Choi us of a Comic Opera, saying: "It would 111 become us to attempt tho alter ation of so fine a specimen of Nature's handiwork in that direction." And it was even so. FARMER BROWN HEARS BAUER'S ORCHESTRA. For The Tribune I sot In n hall that vvns quite overflow in', Scarce room for tho soles of my No. 1 feet, But that foot I lacked 'bout a furlong of Know in', 1'or when I had wedged my stout form In a seat Theio aroso tho strangest commotion of sounds, Yet most everlastingly sweet. Like locusts and kntydlcM scrapln' an iluilu'. And young birds a twitterln' faintly in sleep. Then a little gray screech-owl a lone somely hootln', When the shadows of night round us shiver an' cieep. And hark! Qrandpap Bullfrog n-glln' ndvlco In bass that Is nasal and deep. Then next comes the sound of a wheel-haiiow- erenkln'. Then shaipcnln' of scythes, Just a tcr rlblo dint And high above nil a child's voice a shriekln", So sweet though so shrill, an' so pltrc In'ly thin; It grows to a song with n chorus I like, A song with somo "snap and go" In. Then It rolled Into waves nnd billows of of gloiy; I rode on tho crest of tho musical foam. When they dosed (1 whs never caught .trotcliln' a stoiy) My head touched tho rnftcia of heaven's high dome1. My soul was still soaiin', but, Jinks, nftcr all My feot had to enrry mo home, Oiliiim M. Williams. Peckville, Ph., Juno W. The Wrong Trend oi Higher Education. From the Philadelphia Times. THE root of tho evil In our educa tional system Is In the very widely necepted theoiy thnt an educated man or woman should mnke a living In some other way than by maiutnl labor, and young men nnd young women will struggle ami make eveiy sacrifice to obtain an academic or collegiate education chlelly because they believe theieby they can escape a life of dtudgeiy. This Is the funda mental error that undeilles every de fect In our educational system. In no country In tho win Id are such oppoi tunities piesented as lite orfeied hete for thoioughly educated men In all our leading Industrial pursuits. If mechan ical life Is not respected It must bo be cause mechanics themselves tench their children und others to despise It. and sogeneialhasbeenthe tendency or edu cated youngmen to avoid Industilal.nie chnnlcnl and sclentlllc puisults con nected with Industries, that thousands nnd thousands of foreigners, who have complete mechanical and scientific edu cation lelntlng to their pursuits fill the best positions In this country solely be cause Americuns do not lit themselves for them. o As long ns our social system shall encouiage the belief that education may fit a man or woman to make a livelihood without labor, many thous ands who struggle' to win education will have only falline- and humiliation for nil the sacrifice they have made to pie pare theimelves for a successful pur suit. If we weie to advertise tomor iovv moi nlng for n cleik or book-keeper nt $li or $l.r. a week, nnd nt the same time ndveitise for a cm pouter, a brick layer, or a stone mason, or a plasteior or any other mechanic nt tne same wages, ve would twelve fifty applica tions for the t'leikshlp to one for tho mechanical employment; and among the applicants lor tho cleikship would bo graduates of the best colleges In the land who, after plodding Enough an lntei collegiate coin so, find themsel ves unfitted for suet ess In the piofcs slons nnd aie glad to accept any posi tion that will give tliom btcad. o A good mechanic is always employed at better wages than the collegiate graduate can command unless lie has special lltness for distinction in sonic Intellectual puisult. If these young collegiate graduates who ate glad to accept a cleikship had devoted the same cneigy to lit themselves tor some mechanical puisult they would enter the battle of llfe as masteis, and their services would be sought for on every hand. There never was a time when tills country needed so many thoioughly educated men for lndustilal or me chanical pursuits. Theie are open doois to success and foitune for all who have fair ability and choose, to fit themselves thoioughly for such a puisult. If the late Piesident Frank Thomson, of the Pennsylvania llall loacl company, had gone to college when he was 1 jeais of age he would doubtless have made a ciedltable law yer or doctor, and won a fair measuie of success in life, but he chose to enter the railroad shops at Altoon.i as an nppientke. and devoted all his brum! Intelligence and tlieli'ss application to become a master In his mechanical art; when he graduated as a master me chanic he was fitted to take command nf a division; soon became general .supoilntendont of the gient JPenns.vl vanla system, and he dosed his career as one of the best all-aioiind piesi dents that company has ever had. o The fault Is not In the higher educa tion offered to Ameiican joung men and women. The fault Is wholly In their mlsundei standing of the many fields It offers for success In life. Higher edu cation should be accepted by all as the best open door to the highest success In industrial and uiiM-hanlcal puisults Whenever It shall be thus accepted the many thousands of ducjted failuies will be supplanted by the many thous ands of collegiate graduates enteiing into the vast industiial and mechanical pursuits, which must command icspect for all who icspect themselves.
