Tho United Mine Workers' should if possible place tho muzzle upon tho banker editor of Tho Times without delay. Tho organization Is deserving of a better fate than to bo championed by exhibitions of editorial hydrophobia like that of last evening; In which ugly accusations against Mr. Mitchell were quoted. The Mine Workers certainly have reason to suspect that the love of The Times for tho laboring man is a bigger humbug than Us oft repeated circulation claims. A Magnificent Record. IF ANY Republican should at any time be at a loss for reasons for the faith that Is in him he will find them In the greatest abun dance in the "Republican Text Book for the Campaign ot 1902," just pub lished by the nuthority of the Repub lican congressional committee. The Pittsburg Times says the book Is aptly prefaced with these words of tho lam ented McKlnley: "You do not have tb guess what tho Republican party will do. The world knows Its purposes. It has embodied them in law and exe cuted them In administration." The contents of tho book afford ample evi dence of the truth of this declaration. It presents a magnificent record of tho . recent achievements of the Republican party and of tho great benefits which have flowed to the people of the United States because Its purposes have been embodied In law and executed In ad ministration. Under the head of "Protection and Prosperity" are presented facts and fig ures which show how the business of the country was rescued from the depressing effects of Democratic administration and brought by the enactment of pro tective tariff laws Republican law makers and officials to the highest state of prosperity. The record of the country's business condition under Dem ocratic free trade and Republican pro tection policies Is set forth In a manner which shows the vast superiority of the latter. Under the head of "Labor" the records of the two parties are set forth In detail, and again the advantage Is greatly with the Republican, which Is shown not only to have Increased the pay of the wage-earner, but also to have enacted laws for his benefit in a manner which Is not approached by its rival. The subject of "The Trusts" is exhaustively treated, and again It la made clear that both in the enactment of laws for their regulation and In their enforcement the Republican party Is entitled to first place over its rival. An Interesting exposition Is made In this connection of the fact that trusts are by no means indigenous to this country or the product of Its protectlvo legislation, as Is so sedulously claimed by the fiee trade organs, but thut they abound In Gtcat Britain, the home of free trade. Tho question of the"- Philippines Is discussed at length, and fuels and figures are adduced which afford ample indorsement for the policy pursued by the Republican natlouul udminlstrutlon (n regard to the Islands. The conduct of our army Is defended and a deserved trlbuto' paid to tho nien who sustained tho uuthgj'lty qt tho flag against tho efforts lit, open Insurgents in the field and thelVcowardly ullle3 on this side of 'the ocean. Tho thirteenth regiment continues to win laurels,.. The great scores made at Mount GfefifiT this week are attract ing widespread attention and as Wile shooting Is supposed to bo the chief aim of a body of lhfunti-y, It Is a deep eatlbfactlon to record tho Thirteenth's success ut aiming. A Warm Lot. TIIRTY-THREK police oiucers were arraigned on Monday J 'before the director of public SifoVy of Pittsburg for var ious acts of drunkenness.disorderly con duct unci Insubordlnutlon. The Now "York police establishment In Its palm iest duys could not hold a candle to the. stated demoralization Into which the pol!cp.,prgnnlzutlon of Pittsburg has fallen. Director Leslie was natur ally Indignant that bo ntuny of his men were up beforo him for conduct unbe coming un olllcer, conduct which would not discredit tho toughs and thugs which these men are called upon to kt-'ep In order, One ofllcer after his trial hit the lieutenant who had preferred the chargo against him und was held for trial. Another the week befote was held in 2,000 ball for murdering a colored citizen whom ho had pluced under arest. A detective who was UrlneliiK a prisoner from Canton, Ohio, Lp," than 60 Inches so Inchfi . . . 100 " :so " mo "..... 1CO0 " . . . . permitted his charge to escape. The detective Is charged with being drunk although he denies lt Tho director of public safety says his men are 'a warm lot." There Is no question about that.' It hns cdme, to this that thero are almost as many charges brought against the police an- the police bring against law-breakers. Such ti "warm" place ns Pittsburg with Its "warm lot" of ofllcers is not to be envied. Thero Is no city In the country which for Its population shows a higher degree of criminality, making every nllownnce for the exceptional and peculiar conditions thnt prevail there. This Is undoubtedly partly It not whol ly attributable to the undisciplined and demoralized condition of the police force. There are no better or more practical Judges of tho efllclency of a police foico than criminals. The crim inals of Pittsburg a legionary multi tude have taken tho measure of Its disreputable custodians of law nnd order with metrical exactness. Divorce procedure In Lackawanna county Is often queer, not to say lu dicrous. One man and wife have been married to each other twice and di vorced twice. To such unhappy ones might be recommended tho plan pur sued by an Indiana husband, whoso wife and himself seemed neither able to live with nor without each otner; finally, after a second divorce and re marriage In seven years, they drew up an agreement to the effect that which ever one gets angry first, the other shall have all the property. migration of the Fur Seal. AN HIGHLY Interesting discov ery has been recently made In k.the Eastern Pacific ocean by one ot our revenue cutters. A considerable herd ot fur scalsjias been found on one or more of tho Aleutian islands, which He northwest of Japan. It Is believed that the Indiscriminate slaughter of the animals on the Prlbl loff Islands has driven them to seek new breeding grounds. This Is quite possible, although contrary to the. uni versal experience of naturalists who scarcely ever find that the instinct which leads migratory animals or birds to seek certain locations for breeding or feeding purposes Is affected by man's propensity to the ruthless ex termination of feral life wherever he finds it. Animals do retreat before change in natural environment. But this Is a slow process. There Is time, usually, for the evolution necessary to the survival of the fittest and conse quently to the perpetuation of the race. When slaughter by artificial methods begins, although the animals become shy, wary, or recluse, the Instinct which lends them to select one situa tion above others predominates over a tendency, If there is any, to acquire ad ditional habits of self-preservation, where this Is possible, as' It is In the case of the seals, just as it was not so in the case of the buffalo. ' Yet it seems probable that the herd which has been discovered In the Aleu tian Islands Is not Indigenous. This chain of barren rocks has been known to European navigators during the past two centuries without such a dis covery being made. The Islands belong to Japan. It Is' Impossible that the seals 'could have been congregated there for any length of time without the knowledge of this Inquisitive and utilitarian race, whose fishermen scour these seas at all seasons. It may be assumed then provisionally that the seals are those which formerly bred on the Prlblloft islands. Although these persecuted animals have deserted the stars and stripes and taken sanctuary under the chrysanthemum, we are ex ceedingly well pleased at the change of allegiance. Thb Canadian pirates of the Behrlng Sea will now find their oc cupation gone. Happily their ruthless lust for pelts had not time to satiate Itself in the utter extermination of the fur seal. Tho unlmals are safe under Japanese protection. If the Canadian sealers cross the Pacific they will find that the seal wardens of tho Mikado will not be so complacent In accepting their misrepresentations or heedless of the Illegality of their fishing methods as are those of Uncle Sam. The swimming pool at the armory Is a boon which seems to be appre ciated. It Is particularly to be com mended that women are taking ad vantage of It; and are learning to swim. No more valuable accomplishment can bo acquired by any one, and aside from Its utilitarian object, It Is a graceful and delightful exercise. m Hanna and the Rights of Labor. ENATOR HANNA'S Chautau- quan speech Is being widely quoted by the papeis which did not join In ubuse of him when more active us chairman of the Republican national committee. In presidential campaigns It Is fashloiv able to picture him as a bloated pluto crat with dollar marks all over him. Save Quay, no man has been more abused than Hanna, and no man de serves It less. It is but another case ot a great man misunderstood .and pur sued by Ignorant political prejudices. As heud of tho Clvlo Federation he Is doing moro to unite capital and labor, and to promote tho legitimate rights of labor, than any man In tho land. Ho Is tho leading champion uf voluntary aroiiruwou aim puuus mu pride to the sentiments of honor which actuated the soft coal inlneis of four great stutes, who have for four cony .i , Jon.. f,,in7f.illv ndhored tf secutlve years faithfully adhered td .. . ,...n,n .i.i.l .l.a haHaM. in ri,l hero to them, unanimously refused to strike In sympathy with the anthracite men. Does not this fact open tho way to future peace, Why not reach con- tracts through friendly arbitration, and then adhere to them. This looks like a rational and Just settlement to great economical problems. The annual statement for the South ern Paclllo "hallway shows enormous gross earnings.

REGISTER IS . SUSTAINED HE HAD A BIGHT TO USE HIS DISCRETION. Judge- Vosburg In Orphans' Court Yesterday Handed Down an Opin ion in tho Matter of the Appeal by Heirs of the Simon Estate from the Action of the Register of Wills Koch in Appointing Robert Xoeh ler Administrator of the Estate. In the estate of Frederick Simon, late ot this city Judgo Vosburg In orphans' court yestcrdny handed down an opin ion In which he dismissed the nppeal from tho nctlon of Register of W,llls Koch In using his discretion nnd ap pointing Robert Koehlcr, administra tor, the legatees all having renounced their clnlms on tho administratorship. The opinion follows: According to the certified copy of tho record of tho proceedings before tho re gister ot wills, and the ovldenco adduced, a petition was presented to him on Juno 27, 1302, by Matt. Gehcn, Magdalen Hel ler, Charles J. Gchen, Margaret Malburg, Kntlierlno Wilder. Mlnnte Fldlam. Fred Gchen, Mary Gehen and Reglnla. Degan, legatees under the will of tho testator, setting forth that tho executrix originally named Is now dead, and asking thnt let ters d. b. n. c. t. a. ,be Issued to Valen tino Malburg. Tho snme day a petition was filed by Fred H. Winters and Charles Dupont Breck, asking for the appointment of some fit person: and on July 1st, tho petition of Valentine Simon and Valen tine Rosar was filed, lequpstlng the regis ter to appoint 'Valentino Rosar. On July 7th, the renunciation of Valentine Rosar, Jr., Mary Ronr, Jacob Rosar and Joseph Rosar was also filed. By the pleadings It appears that there are now living no widow, children or brothers and sisters of Frederick Simon, deceased, his nenrest kin being the fol lowing nephews and nieces, to wit: Valen tine, Mary and Elizabeth Rosar; Peter, Valentine, Joseph nnd George Simon. Af ter some Informal hearings, nt which tho parties in Interest nnd their attor neys were present, the register decidivl not to lssua letters to any of tho nomi nees, nnd appointed Robert P. Koehlcr, administrator, d. b. n. c. t. a., In thta estate. No reason for this action wns as signed ofrecord; but It was testified at the hearing In court that there seemed to bo considerable feeling among the legatees, which led the register to believe that tho 'interests of the estate would be best cared for and litigation prevented, if one having no Interest at all should administer It. If. under the facts of the case, tho register had a legal discretion to make the appointment and Issue let ters fo Robert Kochler, then of course the court will riot undertake to review that discretion, except in case of a manifest abuse ot It. (Whiskey's Ap., 108 P., BG7J. LEAD TO LITIGATION. No such abuse has been shown by the evidence; in fact, the suggestion that the appointment of Valentine Rotar would lead to litigation, In line with the prin ciple laid down by some of tho cases that a litigant should not bo appointed (EU maker's Est., 4 Watts, 31). It Is true that Mr. Rosar lias no matters In suit with this estate; but It Is certainly tho policy ot the law to avoid an nppolpt ment which might lead to litigation of anv character. It also seems proper to state in 'this connection, that nothing de rogatory of Mr. Rosar has ever been al leged, or shown by tho evidence. The im portant question to bo decided here is, whether or not, under tho facts of this case, tho register was vested with a discretion under the act of March 15th, 1S32 (P. L. 310) to go outside of the next of Jcln. and appoint one not given the right of administration under the statute. In this case, the next of kin did not ngreo upon any one person a their nomi nee; and even If they had done so, It Is not clear that the register would have been bound to respect their nomination. It is Mild In Wood's Ap. (oj Pa 333) that "Tho act makes no provision for nomi nees or substitutes for tho parties in In terest." Woodward, C. J., further says In tho ease last cited: "He (the register) Is bound to exercise a sound discretion when he selects outside of those to whom tho statute gives the right, and In tho absence of all evidence against his ap pointee, a sound discretion is to bo pre sumed." As nothing has been shown against Robert P. Koehlcr, which would Indicate that he Is not a proper person to servo ns administrator, tho exercise of a sound discretion by the register In his appointment must be presumed. Under the nuthority of Frlck's Ap. (114 Pa. 29) thoe of the next of kin of the testator who are non-residents, have no standing to take out letters, or to object to tho granting of letters to another. In that case the register appointed one who was not related to tho decedent, and was not a creditor of tho estate; and this appoint ment wns affirmed by the Supreme court upon appeal. THE FAILOR CASE. William W. Porter. J., In Fallor's Est., (10 Pu. Supr. Court Rep., pags 238), soya: "In Ellmaker's Estnte, Mr. Justice Rog ers expresses tho opinion that the regis ter Is bound to respect tho nomination of tho next of kin, but It Is said in Wood's Ap. (5.r Pa. 332) that the act makes no provision for nominees or sub stitutes for tho parties In Interest." In Fallor's Estate,-tho decedent died Intestate, leaving as his next of kin a brother and sister. Both at first re nounced, the sister asking for tho ap pointment of her son. Tho brother then withdrew his renunciation, and asked that tho letters bo issued to him. After hearing the parties, tho register granted letters to the nephew, and this appoint ment was affirmed upon nppeal. Where tho parties In Interest either renounce or nre minors, tho register may grant letters to any fit person. (Rlcgel's Ap., 17 W. N, C, 270.) An examination of these, nnd other authorities, has satisfied tho court that under all the circumstances of tho present case, tho register was vested with a discretion to make tho ap pointment, to which objection Is now made; and thero Is nothing to show un abuso of his discretion In so doing, Furtheimore, the practice followed by tho appellant does not seem to be the proper one. It was held In FareU's Est. (1 W. N. C 15) that where It Is clnlnied that tho register has granted letters to an Improper person, application should be made to mm for tno revocation or bucii lotters, and un appeal to the Orphan's 'court lies from his refusal to do so. This was tho procedure followed In Frlck's . H1)( x ))0,d ,t t0 ue t)0 ' .' .. . ,..,.. I cot reet practice In cases of this charac ter. According to tno record, no applica tion was mado to tho register for the re vocation of tho letters of udminlstrutlon, nnd this application for un nppeal Is therefore premature and Ivrcgular. NOT YET FAMILIAR. Counsel for tho administrator also argues In his brief that the rules of court have not been followed by tho appellant In several particulars; but as the separ ate Orphan's court of this county Is of such recent organization, the attorneys Imvo not had (in opportunity ns yet to fully famlltarlzo themselves with tho rules and procedure therein, and I am In clined to overlook and disregard the for mal objections suggested. For tho reasons stated u this opinion, however, this appeal cannot bo sustained. Anil now, August 21. 1902, it Is ordered, adjudged and decreed, that tho petition for an appeal from tho register bo ula. missed, and an uppcal refuted.
