Devery. Hearst Is u mill ionaire: Devery. If not one in the pluto cratic sense. Is very near being' one, and In any oilier country would be accepted and classed as one, Hearst Inherited his great wealth; Uevery certainly did not earn Ills. Hearst has prostituted the highest functions of Journnllsiu to gain ami maintain n squalid notoriety. Dev ery has acquired his political popular ity by pandering; to the physical appe tite of a poor and hungry section of Xew York. Uevery will prove a more Insuperable and Implacable foe to Hill's presidential pretensions than (roker ever did. Watch If this does not come to pass. , Hearst Is no fool, although he some times acts like one. Devery Is the em bodiment nf disciplined vulgarity. He Is practically Illiterate, bill he hits a profound knowledge of human nature. If t'roker vanquished Hill at every turn, the boss had to cieate n. place for Devery ul the head of the police force of (iothain.' The ways of Democratic politics in Xew York are . mysterious, lull Iheie Is nothing very hidden in Devery's rise to power, wealth and, now, political const qlience. He forced his way to the top and there he Is. Iletweeii Hill and Devery, It Is a choice between Ihe devil and the deep blue sea. Tile lortllues of Hill Were never so low. He hits stooped to a socialistic propaganda to maintain Ills hold upon Xew York Democracy, but to give Ills hypocrisy the varnish of sincerity, Iih rejected Devery's creden tials as u delegate In the Democratic convention, Devery had every whit as good a right In his place there as I lit committee who cast him oui at Hill's Instigation. This has very natuially aroused Devery's ferocity. This Is not artilicial or political. It Is as instinct ive as that of a rhinoceros and no less remorseless. If this was the only trick Hill had up Ills sleeve he played It very clumsily. A novice in the political game of Xew York slate anil city poli tics could not have blundered more tnttiously. Hill, moreover, misinter prets the signs ot the times. The coun try Is in no humor for socialistic propaganda of superficial experimenta tion. We have, unfortunately, too .much of them In the social crucible to satisfy almost the hallucinations of an an archist. Devery at any rate has Un acquired Intultiveniss of a policeman. He Is a large property owner. He can no more afford to preach socialism than Hearst. The dual alliance formed be tween Hearst and Devery Is less strange than ti'ting. It is signillcant, and, us far as David H. II til is con cerned, ominous. In admitting' that he I's not scared of trusts. Senator Dolllver is In danger of being declaied not orthodox, A Problem in Education. W II 11,10 the tumult and the shouting in South Africa have died down, Knglnnd has by no means gotten over her difficulties, and one of the worst of these Is the problem of edu cation for the children of the liners. Knrly In the history of the concentra tion camps, his majesty's government established to the best of its ability a system of kindergarten Instruction for the children In the camps. At first In struction was largely Improvised by the aid of generous women from the cities, wlio aclid as volunteers but in many cases had more zeal than ettlc ieiicy. Later, trained teacheis were brought from Knglnnil, anil they have dune woiideis In the short time which they have had at their disposal. A re cenl Issue of the London Times prints ti letter from lteuier's coriespomleni at Harberlon descriptive of one of these camp schools. The following extract pictures Its work: At Lord .Midler's Inflection, for which lliei'e eoald have been nil prepai atlon, 'IIS his arilviil In llarbei'lon was iuie.iei-ed, and his Intention lo visit the M'lmol was only known on J lie preou day. the evi dences of Miccesxi'ui tiillion, ami nf riiu luiil kiiiiiI will, were cei'iaiiil.v aiiiireit, The iiceeiil of Ihe children in the kin dergarten class was gaud, the emmi in lion deal and distinct, ninl Ihe keen In lereM of the children most evident.

Unstable. PKUt'LK SAY of a mini who never sticks lo one business or occupation long that he Is likely to be unstable and they don't put much confidence in hint. II Is much the same with political jiartles. Observe how the Democratic party lias changed Issues in the past few years. First It was free trade, then free silver, then both; next, imperial ism, with free trade and flee silver on the side. Then militarism and "Down with the army," and now It Is a bodge podge of all of them. On the other hand, the Republican party has kept right along- doing busi ness at the same old stand protection to American Industries and American labor: protection to American credit ami the American dollar. The Repub licans don't need any better issue than these. Looking Ahead. "- -tr -T-IHLK Itlcliani Harding Davis carries greater au V tliorlty as a writer of lictlon than ps a states man, there Is enough truth In what he says in Harper's Weekly this week concerning South American revolutions as affected by the Monroe doctrine to set intelligent readers to thinking. The subject of his article Is the up heaved condition of affairs in Venezue la and Colombia a condition periodi cal if nol chronic In the former coun try and of stilllclentl.v long- standing in the hitler to give point to Air. Davis' belief that the American altitude of preventing Kuropeaii Intervention with out substituting corrective measures In its own name cannot be Indefinitely sustained. In the case of Venezuela, for example, we have a country equal In area to France, Spain and Portugal; incalculably rich in natural endowment and In the capability of supporting n high order of social and political life, and yet given over to inlsgoveritment so gross and seemingly so little in like lihood of Internal Improvement that eventually, .Mr. Davis thinks, the laws of economy and the spirit of the world's advancement will insist upon t lie Interposition of reforming: inllu ences. The .Monroe doctrine, as com monly understood, says that these shall not come from without, save under American auspices. Hut shall this mean that they are not to come at all'.' The question, of course, is not Im mediate or pressing-. It may not be come vital In the present generation, Hut he must be gifted Willi a low or der of Imagination who does not fore see a time when the claim of American suzerainty over the Lallu-Anierlcan republics llrst suggested In the Monroe doctrine and since far advanced un der successive interpretations will com pel full acceptance by this country of the responsibility ami moral duty that go Willi It and are inseparable from It, or else Its surrender under compulsion of the world's demand for better gov ernment in these mismanaged princi palities.

Bt'JKOIlH the Xew Knglnial Cotton Manui'iiettirers' association, In ses sion nt the Waldoir-Asloila Wed nesday, O. P. Austin, elder or the bureau of statistic of the I'nlted States treasury dcpnrlluclit, delivered -.an In structive address showing the gtowth ami possllillllles of the Aineilcau cotton In dustry. Air. Austin began his address by Hid ing that tlie principal suggestion which lie deseed to iiffel- to the cottuu inanil raedilcis of the Culled States was that the time hail now come in which tlu-y might enter actively upon the task of turning Into inauufactuieil form a much larger share of tlie cotton which the I'nlted States supplies to tin- win Id than they have done In the past, I'p to HiIh time the cotton nianul'aelurefs of Ihe Culled Slates have apparently conleuled themselves with supplying: the homo market. In tills they have been extietiie ly successful. Practically all of the cot ton goods consumed In the I'nlted States Is produced by Its own manufacturers, Impnrliitluiis of niaiiufaettncd cotton nmnimtlug to less than III per cent, of tin- home consimipllon. The consumption oc cotton tmimtritctiirc In the I tilt -it Slates has Increased enormously and the lnanu fnclmers have fully kept pace with that consimipllon, The value of Ihe cotton manufaetiireis of the I'nlted States was stated by the census or IsTn at $I".ihi,wi) and In l!Hi at JituniHi.niKi, or an average or Jt,(l.-i per capita In IsTu and Jl.li! per capita In l'K. Hut the fact Mint prices have fallen more than one-half meantime, while the per capita consumption has not materially changed, Indreat-s that the quantity consumed per Individual has greatly Increased, and this is sustained by Ihe fuel that the amount of cotton annually consumed by American mills has more than quadiupled since IS70. The fact that Ihe nmiiuracturers have fully kept pace with a consumption which has quite quadrupled since IS7 anil have dur ing recent years begun to seek markets abroad suggests that they are now In a position to enlarge their field of opera tions. In recent years they have devel oped the art ol' relieving the congestions hi the home market, caused by oicr produetiou, by exports of cotton miiuu I'aeturers. and the exports or cotton cloths have Increased Train 1 l.miii.iinii yards In l.sT.'i In HT,ihki.i,ihi in ISS.1. and J."hiI."S1,(hio In 1WL'. or thirty-six times ns much In l!iu:' as hi ls7n. Ci to this time the great tollon mar kets or the world have been chlelly sup plied by manufacturers located In coun tries which produce no cotton and which draw their raw cotton from Hie I'iiIPmI States. The value of the cotton gunds Imported by those counliies having sta tistical recti! ds amounts to nearlj i'w), (mil. i in I annually, and of this the I'nlted States supplies at present but about P, Hhi.ihiO per annum, or less than ,', per cent., marly all or the remainder being sup plied by countries which do not produce cotton and which draw practically all of their raw cotton from the I'nlted Slates. The fact thai the Called States produces three-fourths of the raw cotton of thu world and has so developed the art of r.aiuifat-tuie that Its manufacturers are able lo fully supply the enormous home market and to begin supplying their sur plus to oilier parts of the world sug gests In Mr. Austin's opinion, that such a country should be able to make lor II seir n permanent position among those sui. lying the world's glowing demand fin' manufactured cotton goods. The an nual Inipoi tallons oT cotton goods, con sidering the world by grand divisions, are-. Asia.

The suggestion that the Culled Slates in.iv henceforward obtain "a larger shire In supplying the cotton nuiuuracliues Im ported by the world Is strengthened I y the evident fact that the Industry of col t'lii manufacturing Is gradually ino.iag town id the eotton-proiliicliig couiilries, and thai Hie Culled Slates, the world's greatest producer of cotton Is outrunning the Kninpeaii countries In Ihe nianiifiie. dire of cotton goods.

These fuels, in .Mr. Austin's opinion, Indicated that tho trend nf the enllon niaiiiifacluilng in iluMry Is now towuid the cotlon-prndue-linr countries, nnd this fact added to ilm other conditions already named, seems lo Justify the opinion that the Culled Slales may now successfully cuter tin Held nf supplying Ihe cotton niiiniifac Inies required by other coiinliles, With regard lo "The Kastern Peill," so-called, or Ihe supposed danger that the cotton manufacturers of the world may bo overwhelmed by the cheap labor of the Oilent when II Is applied to tip manufacluie of cotton gooiK the (level opiuciilH thus far have not Justified that belief.
