AVhat the Democracy needs In addi
tion to new Issues Is a new set of lend
ers with breadth and depth of brains.
Something Should Be Done.
THE OPINION Is spreading;. If
we may judge from the com
ments of the press, that the
anthracite coal imerntors
ought soon, In fairness to themselves,
to the public and to the business in
terests of the coal reslons, to decide
either to come to a basis of agreement
with the miners' union for n peaceable
resumption of work In the mines or
elso take steps to break the strike.
The attitude of patient walling served
f useful purpose while feeling was high
Hid there seemed to be danger of vlo
ence. While the strike Fentlment was
VI boiling point any attempt to oper
ate the mines would surely have been
fraught wlth'-grave risks, In which tlip
community would have shared, lint
now, to all appearnnces, the tension
ins relaxed. In isolated instances
A'HSherles have been started up and In
3iie or two instances breakers have
oeen put in motion without turbulence.
It .seenis evident that the wiser heads
among the mine workers have prevailed
over those who longed to got into
trouble. If there Is truth In the re
ports that men in numbers want to re
turn to work, the companies should
give them the opportunity to do so. If
these reports are not true, the sooner
their falsity is demonstrated the better
It will be for all concerned. If the
operators will not make overtures to
the union without a test of main
strength, let the test come so that the
settlement, in any event, will be hast
ened. One thing In tills situation which
may well give concern to the business
Interests of the anthracite region is the
possibility that prolonged Inactivity In
our mines may have the effect pcrina
.neritly to band over to the soft coal
trade markets essential to the pros
perity of the anthracite trade when nn
a peace footing. It would do little good
to- elthor side In the present controversy
to win a Pyrrhio victory to find at the
end of prolonged agony that during the
struggle the trade on which both must
finally depend had gone elsewhere.
Whatever the existing differences, the
certain fact is that the anthracite
region cannot afford to have anthracite
permanently displaced from industrial
markets.
One way or the other, there should
be an early ending of this strike. A
peaceful ending would be preferable.
But If It cannot bo had, then let the
end come through a forcing of the
fighting, A. long drawn out conclusion
would' inlllct unnecessary hardship on
every interest Involved. Clearly, the
psVelio.lpjKlcul moment litis arrived when

The first thing to be noted of this
list Is the absence of representation ot
three ot the most important learned
professions law, medicine and engi
neering. Just why they should he
omitted while explorers are arc admit
ted and educators given 16 per cent, of
the tolnl must be left to conjecture.
Passing to the names themselves, If by
statesmen are meant men who actually
shape great political movements, what
Is the warrant for including William J.
Urynn at the expense, say, of Senator
Morgan, (.'nckiell or Vest; or Chief
Justice Fuller nt the expense ot n con
structive law-maker like Senntor Alli
son, Spooner or Aldrlch? And where
does the busiest statesman of the day,
Ellhtl Root, come in? Or why Include
in tlio army and navy list a man like
Schley, against whose record stands
practically the unanimous judgment ot
Ills brolhers-ln-nrms that he lacked
some of the first essentials in great
ness, when men like MacArthur, Chaf
fee and Clark are Ignored? And among
Inventors what special usefulness In
the sub-marine boat warrants the In
clusion of Its designer, while Sleln
metz, the greatest practical electrician
of the age, Is kept out? And can It be
called a rational view of greatness
which puts Yellow Journnllst Hearst,
a man who Is simply spending Inherit
ed money on newspaper freak notions,
among the editors while Adolph Ochs,
who worked up from penury to owner
ship of four of the cleanest and most
influential journals in the country, is
dropped?

Taking an Appeal.
w
E ATtE glad to see that
Senator Sponncr has de
cided to carry the matter
of ills candidacy for re
elecllon before the people of AVIscon
siu at the primaries for the nomination
of members of the next legislature, and
that he will not accept the conditions
Imposed by the La Follette faction
which controlled the recent state con
vention. We are glad for this reason,
that It will enable the people to decide
on the senutorshlp question by Itself,
which Is obviously desirable.
Senator Spooner has nothing to do
with Wisconsin legislation and there
fore his views on matters coming be
fore the general assembly of that state
are really unimportant in this connec
tion. Whether he agrees with Gover
nor La Follette or not hi matters of
state policy Is Immaterial, or at least
bliould be Immaterial, to the people of
the Hadger state so long as he serves
the commonwealth and the country ac
ceptably In the senate chamber at
Washington, It is conceded on all
sides that Mr. Spooner's service In the
senate Is conspicuously able, brilliant
and useful, That being true, why
should it be Interrupted because he and
Governor La Follette do not agree on
certain matters regarding which tho
senator has no vote and perhaps very
little Influence?
Already one county, Itaciue, which
sent La Follette delegates to the state
convention, has Instructed its itepubll
can legislative nominees to support
Spooner for United Stntes senator, and
there Is nothing Inconsistent In its ac
tion. If the situation Is faced bravely
by tho senator's friends there Is reason
to hope that Racine's action will be
come the general action throughout
Wisconsin,
Public interest In this campaign is
natural and Republicans outside of
Wisconsin feel that they have a right
to counsel with their UaJger state
brethren In a matter width affects tho
whole party, Henutor Spooner Is moro
than a senator from Wisconsin. He Is
a leader of Republican policy and a
pillar of Republican administration and J
supremacy. His subtraction from the
high circle In whlcli he moves would
on any account be u national misfor
tune; and It would be especially un
fortunate If coming1 as a result of un
necessary factional feeling lit the ranks
'of his friends at home. We are sutls-
ed that' the time la at hnnd when the
Keptlbllcan voters of Wisconsin, who
nre notably Intelligent and level-headed,
will not consent tti butcher so big u
man us Sena tor Spooner to please u
temporary revolution.

MEXICO, OUR
NEIGHBORS
For The Tribune by Walter J. Ballard.
When we stop to consider tho satisfac
tory and steady Increase of our business
lelutlous with our sister republic and
nearest neighbor to the south, Mexico,
11 is surprising how little wo see in print
regarding those relations, and the won
derful progress made, and being made,
by tho "Land of tho MontuzuimiH." The
following compilation may help to supply
this deficiency of published information:
Many American exchanges comment
on Editor Watterson's talk about Roose
velt's trying to "Mexlcanlzo" American
Institutions. Tho Kentucky philosopher
used the word la a depreciatory sense.
He doesn't know Mexico except from
histories of the year 1S."0 or thereabouts,
lie Imagines that Santa Ana still lives,
that brigands aie on the roads, and that
life and property are a gaiublo. Wattor
son should get up to the times. All is
not perfect here, but Maxlco has some
good things, and even at .the risk nf
"Mexlcanizatiou" they might well be
adopted up north. For example: When
Mexico gets an efficient and businesslike
government It docs not set up nights
planning to replace it Just for the sake
ot novelty. Mexican Herald.
A salesman for one of the largest lock
and building hardware manufacturing
linns In the country, who has just re
turned to New York trom a tour through
Mexico, says: "My trip was a new ven
ture for our house, as heieloforu we
have bad no men In Mexico. Wo have
done some business with Mexican dealers
through their correspondents here and
through New Orleans houses, but wo
have never before made the experiment
of working Mexico in the same way as
American territory. The results nre so
promising that the house lias decided to
send us there regularly hereafter. The
main reason why Mexico has been neg
lected by American houses in our Hue
and lu many other lines Is the almost
total absence of Jobbers, as they carry
no stock and do not supply the retailers
with the balk of their purchases. The
latter generally buy direct and about
once or twice -a year. Another reason
Is the Mexican prejudice in favor of cer
tain lines of goods made In foreign coun
tries. The fashion of their houses keeps
ui) tills prejudice and confirms them In it
but It Is by no means a hopeless pre
judice. One powerful factor In overcom
ing. It Is thu large number of American
architects In Mexico. Of late years a
great many of them have settled there
and they are sure to creato a demand
for American hardware."
It will bu some, years before Mexico
becomes a serious industrial rival In for
eign markets nnd in tlm meantime she
offers superior advantage's for trade be
cause her iiiiIiiiio conditions of prosper
ity has created a demand for all kinds
'of machinery required In the equipment
of shops and factories and for tho de
velopment of her-great natural resonnes,
Mexico otters to tho world a cash market
for almost, every kind of a manufactured
article. Mexican Journnl of Commerce.
Ah a sample of Mexican Investment wu
can point to the present construction of
residences nnd commercial buildings. It
Is an undeniable fact that never In tho
history of this capital were so many
elegant nnd pretentious buildings being
erected as now.
The British Trade, Journal recently
had tlio following to say: "No great Im
provement lu thu position of lirilish
trade In Mexico can bo expected until
llrltlsh merchants and manufacturers
coinu forward to push their own Inter
ests, which must suffer ns long as they
are Insufficiently represented In tho
country."
Of tlio twenty-one Mexican banks
quoted on tlio stock exchange in Mexico
City, tlio shares of fifteen aro abovo par,
anil whenever a holder finds himself com
pelled by circumstances to sell- buyers
are always ready for the operation. The
lowest per cent, aliovo par Is $110 for pii)
shares; tho highest Is 2!i5 for thu ?1'H
share, The capital of tlio smallest bank
is KM,mju whose $loo shares mo worth any
day $1IU to $117; the capital of tho largest
bank is worth J:o,(to,wxi villi Its $110
shares eagerly bought up at $2!.'i. Tho
dividends tlieso bunks pay yeaily vary"
fiom 12 per cent, to 2ft per cent,, tho av
erage being say IS and Hi per cent. These
figures nro eloquent, nn comment on
banking in Mexico is siipcrlluous. Mexi
can Journal of Commerce.
Tho Building mid Loan company nf
Mexico declared a dividend of 13.40 per

Answer. No, the Mexican government
does not make such grants.
Question, Can a foreign doctor prac
tice In Mexico without a Mexican di
ploma'.' Answer. He can. He cannot, however,
sign death certificates, nor according to
our understanding, can lie collect his fees
In a court of Justice. Several American
doctors, however, have passed the local
examinations and slnnd on an equal fool

Question. Has Mexico City any Eng
