"--" Hi: CONTENTION of Frank I Moss, chief counsel of th JL Miizet committee, that If It Is worth whllo to make such an Investigation as that commit tee nan recently made of New YorK municipal affairs It Is worth while to clothe tho 'Investigators with power to compel the pioductlon of records anl papers, tho attendance of witnesses and to punish contempt on the part of witnesses who lefUFe to testify Is SiMf cvldently sound. Thete mjj ?eem to bo come question ns to how far Mich. It'NCbtijjatlons are protUaoh' In th case of the one under consideration, while n great mass of highly Interest ing Infoimatlon was elicited tending to show coriupt connections between Tnmmnii government and the crimi nal elements nnd convicting leading members of tho Tammany organiza tion of profiting dishonestly In city contracts by means of their political lnlluence. It does not appear that these ieelat!ons have yet produce I any paitlcular effect upon tho public mind In New Yoik city. At the last election, directly after these expos ures, tho Tammany ticket went through by the ordinary majority and ns a. special exhibition of Tammany's power defeat was administered to As semblyman Mazet, tho chaliman o! the probing committee. Superficially this state of things might be uccepted ns establishing that legislative Investigations open to tho suspicion of pai tlsan bins are not of groat value; but a deeper examina tion of the subject will disclose that they have their place in tho public's education. The work of the Mazet committee, for Instance, mndo clear by sworn evidence that a laige number of the Tammany brood are dishonest men, fattening upon exempted vice. This Is no longer a matter of sus picion but of actual eWdence. It Is not easy to sec how the evidence could have been found had there been no ofllclal body with authority to col lect It. The fact that the Marot com mittee was Republican In otlgln and In political complexion g.uo some as surance that the crookedness of the opposite patty would not be spaied. And tho lecoul of Its woik shows that thete was no sparing of the enemy but that upon a number of oc casions he lefused to answei ques tions which weie approaching too near home, and under the law the commit tee had no power to punlfch for this contempt. The question of betteilng our city goeinment is not entltely a patty question nor does any party enjoy a monopoly of honesty nnd Intelligence. Hut wheie one patty Is supreme, ns Tammany Is at present In Greater New York, an advantage comes when the opposing party keeps Its eyes open for signs of lottenness which It hopes to turn to Its own benefit. The mo tive may be hellish but the end Is Justifiable, and for this reason prob ing committees should have power to make their pioblng effective. To gle them such power will be to establish a new hafeguaid against long-continued conupt government. All nccounts ngieo that from a busi ness standpoint the Chilstmas season of 1SP3 wns the best one ever known. Legitimate business was never better. 5ome License Statistics. r.FOUn THE enactment of the Raines law In 1J18, New Y.k slate had 3VI.I7 sa loons, which paid for li censes $2.92t."!CS. At the end of the last fiscal year the iiumbT of saloons in tho state weie 27,372 hut the je celpts fiom licenses were $11.1 tS.ftSG Thus while the Raines liw induced bv over C.C0O the number of saloons It nt the mhw time increased hr li cense revenue by J8.727.0SS. Wo do not linvo nt hand anv llrun.t which would tend to show whetlnr tho Italnes law has hi ought nbout nny considerable, change In "tho number of attests for drunkenness or In the other social ;onequonres of tho triffle In Intoxi cants; hut It would appear icitsnnnblu to supposo that there has not been a iy rndlc.il change, and ceiUlnly none for tho woise.- It Is noticeable that the opposition to tho Raines liw, oucp so violent in our neighboring state. Is now almost entirely cnlmed down. In effect the law Is a relief to tho gen eral taxpayer to th't extent that It places upon tho liquor traillo a larger proportion of Its own bunions. In tjils general connection it is In teresting' to note' tho difference In the revenue derived from the, salo of Hquois in the lurgest cities of the country. We take the figures from the Phllndelphiu Press. Philadelphia with an estimated population of 1,250,000 had according to the latest available statis tics 1,C1 saloons and Its receipts fiom liquor license Wore 1,M",112. New York county, which U p'rnctleally old New York city and Is now Manhattan borough of Greater New York city, rTas about 2,000,000 population and hal 790 saloons and )tf revenue from li quor licenses was M,3D2.t'0J From this It will ttu3Q$n,tliat old Nijw York city wlth"lhre?(lrths mcro population than thlladeljihla, has mopj than fuur times ns many saloons and recolvM rrver thre-i times aa much tevenue fronjJ,tljqnj,...f3lilcago with tin esti mated population of l.J-OO.OW, has 6,251 B saloons nnd receives In lkcnse feci $3,124,031. Hoston with Iwo-tltthw of Philadelphia's population has ?9'J nt loons nnd Its license fees not $1,180, 6S8. Hut Baltimore and Sthcmls Alth nearly the same population each ni Hoston have respectively 2,221 find 2.03J saloons nnd receive In license fees JllO.lfiO nnd $97,MJ. These Mgutos, together with those relating to the Haines law, lndlcnto n good ileal of tinevenness In tho legis lation of tho various states legulatln tho falo of Intoxicants. Thov force the conclusion that the subject Is not tecolvlng the degree of caieful studyi which from lis magnitude It deserves. An Inter-state convention to consid er better means of motlng this prac tical problem would not be a bad Iden. The twentieth century will begin Im mediately after the clock ishall have struck midnight on the evening of Dec. 31, 1900, nnd nil this nrgulng In tho papers will not hasten the mattei one second's worth. Civilizing the Indian, f H HE RECENT decision of In- dlau buieau ollltlals to allow JL no more specimens of the noble red mnn to leave the reservations for exhibition purposed In the wild we3t shows will be re ceived with unlvotsal l egret, especial ly In elides where young Ameileo. predominates The reason given for this new order Is the supposition that tho Indian would, adopt the dieses and man tlets of civilization If not encouraged by the inducements ofteied by the wild west cntertnlnments. While this mav be a proper theory fiom . frontier standpoint, It looks at long range like pure nonsense. For years past tho permission to tiael with tented ex hibitions In summer time has been one of the rewnids of good behavior on tho patt of the pilsoner of the teser vatlon. If there is any one course of teaching that would induce the red man to become civilized it wou'd seem to be tho opportunity to travel and learn something of the woild outside of the nniiow leseiv.Ulon and know4 that all white men nrj not of the make up of the rascally Indln agonta who live preyed upon thelt wards foil so many yeais There has long been a suspicion that the Indian bureau offi cial and his representative on the frontier have been responsible for the Inrge amount of tho trouble that has cost the government many dollats nnd valuable lives. This last order serves to strengthen the lmpieslon. The In dian agent may be sincere In hH theoty thnt the best way to civilize the son of the forest Is to treat him like a wild beast or resident of a penal colony, but It will be dlfllcult 10 coinlnco tho general public thit this Is the most inpld road to the red man's enlightenment. The dlscoieiy of a new elixir of life Is announced, but It will piobably not lnteifere with the funeinl dliectlng business. General Lawton's Letter. (Prom the New York Sun.) AT THi: DINNER of the New Rngland society Friday night the Hon John Rariett, foi meily United States minis ter to Slam, read this letter wiltten to him bCieneial Law ton in November: "I would to God that the truth of this whole Philippine situation could be known by eveiy one In America as I know1 It. If the real hlstoiy, Inspira tion and conditions of this Insui lec tion, and the influences, local and ex ternal, that now encouingo the enemy, as well as the actual possibilities of these Islands and peoples and their le latlons to this gieat Kast, could be undoi stood at home, we wouldrhear no more talk of unjust 'shooting of gov ernment' into tho FJIIpinos, or of haul ing down our flag inVthe Philippines, if the so-called antl-lmperlalists would honestly ascertain the truth on the giound nnd not In distant America, they, whom iMielleve to bo honest men misinformed, would be conilnced of tho en or of their statements and con clusions and of the unfortunate effect of their publication here. If I am shot by a Filipino bullet It might as well come fiom one of my own men, because I know from 'observations con filmed by captured ptlsoner.s that the continuance of fighting Is chiefly due to reports that aie sent out fiom Amer ica." This may be icgaided as tho last message of General Law ton to his countrymen. lie fell In a war pro longed by the Ameilcan sympathize! s with 'tho Insunectlon. Their Insplia tlon directed the bullet that touk him f i oni his countiy In his piime of stiength. A vur Is Indeed accuised In which the enemies ot Atnuilcu find their chief encouiagcment and support 1 among so-called Amei leans. Ry Gen et al Lawton's own chnige his blood Is upon their heads. If they nio' 'honest men mlHlnfoimed," they will now humbly own their aw fill ertor and cease to hold up tho hands of thoiieb els. This letter fiom Law ton Is one moro blow. undUi tenlblo blow, coming fiom his dead hand, against the fosteieis of the insunectlon. How can they hold their heads up after it? "I would to God that the truth' of this whole Phil ippine situation could bo known by every one in America bh I know it!" The majoilty of the Ameilcan people take' Lawton's word for It. They be lieve that "the continuance of lighting Is chlelly due to reports that aie sent out from America." What will they think of those, if then are still those, who do not give up the woik of In citing the Tagils, gulling them by lying talos of Amerlcaif sympathy?

An excellent account of the military situation in the Philippines; at least a narrative which hems eery uppear nnro of being truthful and Intelligent, appeals In the January number of Scrlbnei's magazine from the pen of Frederic Palmer. It glvos fair credit to our soldiers and snllois, but shows that most of all we now neort men to handle the Filipinos who posseca the peculiar administrative qunllttes ex hibited la Cuba by Gcnctal Wood. Ah Mr. Palmer views the situation, tho fighting Is over and Instead of that tho oiganlzntlnn of good government and the honorable conciliation of tho na tive races are next In order. These natives must bo educated out of the four centuries of evil rule and evil cus toms bequeathed to them by Spain and made to understand by means . of dally demonstration that the American regime Is something Infinitely better. Words nlone will not convince them. They must have ocular nnd tangible proof. When that Is forthcoming! the lest will bo eusy.

I hno sung cf tho soldier's gloiy As 1 mer shall sing again; 1 hao gazed on the shambles gory, I h.iiu smellcd of the iduugliter-peu. There Is blood In the Ink-well clotted, Theiu are stains on tho laurel leaf, And tho pngeu of F.nnu are blotted With the tears of a rccdless grief. Tho bird Is slatichtctcd for fashion, And the beast Is Killed for sport; And never the word compassion Is whlbpercd at Molcch's court. For the parent seal In tho water Is slain, and her child must die, That some sister or wife or daughter Her beauty rray beautify. And the merciful thought we smother For such Is tbu way of man As we murder the useless mother For tho "in born nstuikhnn." But tho season of rest comes never For the inrest sport of all; Will Ills patience endure foroer, Who noteth a sparrow 'b fall?

A thine of stiff canvas, dirt spotted and toiu; Soiled corduroy collar; huge pockeu that tote Tho game; and Its fabric Is ciumpled mid vvoiu; Yet memories cling to tho old hunting coat. Its color of tnn with tho giound smooth ly blends And frights not tho timid and sharp- slKlileel game, lly delicate thread Its lono button sus pends, Fntouehul by the hand of tho unseeing dame. t On tho sleeve a light feather seems des tined to stay; Tho scent of burnt powder mound It doth dins; And Its pockets conceal but n motley array Of plpo and tobacco, shells, matches, mid siting. And many n night It hns pillowed the head That lesteil In peaco 'nenth a shelter ing tent That on some, sti cam's banks, tree-pro-tceted, was b pic ad, Where few but Damo Nature's wild creatures o'er went. Ah. If it could speak! It would eagerly tell Of long, breathless chnso through the thicket nnd thorns In pur.mlt of the elk thnt fought nobly nnd well, Hut whose untler.s the old hunting coat now ndoms Or porclmnco It would whisper of morn ing's sharp chill And mvh-htddiMi bent In some Inke at dayllsht.
