They do not yet amount to any- thin? like civil nir. and it is not to be antici- pated that they will. But they do amount to a serious insurrection, in which there seems to be a combination of professional brigands in quest of loot, of disappointed offlceseekers striving to win by awe what they failed to get by lawful means, and of those professional revolutionists to whom periodical uprisings are the very breath of life. That the people of Cuba or auy considerable portion of them are behind the movement or sympathize with it does not ap- .pear. Rut in so mercurial a country and one so long accustomed to insurrectionary movements almost anything may happen. Wherefore it is earnestly to be hoped that the insular govern- ment will promptly put forth a strong hand and L atone for being caught napping by suppressing * the revolt in a thorough manner. There is no ground for sympathy in this coun- try with the insurgents, for there is not the slightest evidence of moral or civic principle in their. campaign or of cause for their uprising other than of the most selfish and sordid de- scription. If we grant that the major motive is not larcenous, but political, even then we must regard it as aiming at the overthrow of a government which has done uncommonly well, and which deserves uncommonly well of Cuba, and at replacing it with a government of untried and unknown qualities, hut which, however virt- uous and competent, would be compromised in advance by the lawless manner of its accession. Upon such an achievement this nation and the \u25a0world would look with decided suspicion and disfavor, and upon what we must regard as a futile attempt at it they look with strong repro- bation. It i*. of course, to be borne In mind, and en- tirely without offence, that many of our Latin- American friends are revolutionists by heredity and tradition and training, and are naturally prone to "rise." hs sparks are to fly upward. In view of their antecedents, the chief wonder is that they do not more frequently manifest their Insurgent tendencies, and we must regard them as entitled to commendation and congratulation on the expedition with which they have so largely transformed their dispositions. It is also gratifying and encouraging to observe that the relationship of the United States to those, countries is exceedingly influential . for the maintenance of peace and order. We do not moau that fear of this country is, like the fear of lieil, "a hangman.-; whip, to keep the world in order." But far more agreeable to note- there In arising among the intelligent and re* fleeting nwaass of the people in those countries a resolution to liveup not merely to the standard desired, but to tue example set by the United ~*>itcs— aiid by Brazil, Argentina, Mexico and We Centre to remind our reader* who are about to leave the city that The Tribune Kill be gent by mail to any address in this country or abroad, and address changed as often as de- tired.

Ward, one of the oldest American sculptors, had been married for more than a month, hi' bride being his former landlady. Mrs. Rachel M. Ostrander Smith, the widow of an artist. Mr. Ward, who is seventy-six years old. takes his 'marriage, which has occasioned much comment among his friends, in a matter-of-fact way. The marriage was kept a secret. Mr. Ward says, to avoid notoriety. The wedding took place July 19 at the Collegiate Reformed Church, at West End avenue and 77th street, the Rev. Herman Webber officiating. A Miss Wilson and the sexton were the only wit- nesses. Mr. and Mrs. Ward have known each other for about forty years, since she was about ten years old. She lived at Newburg then, and he at L'r- bana, Ohio. Mr. Ward has been twice married be- fore. His first wife died about seven years after their marriage and his second wife lived a year and a half only after marriage. Among the works of Mr. Ward in this city are the statues of Wash- ington in Wall street, the Indian Hunter and the Pilgrim in Central Park and the statue of Horace Greeley in front of The Tribune Building. Mrs. Ward, whose home has been at No. 31 West 84th street, where Mr. Ward has boarded since his wife moved to this city, had been a widow for nearly twenty years. She has a son.

ItRuined Him.— Quite recently into a railway car- riage at Oldham stepped a young man. fresh from school evidently, and wearing his Orst watch. The very many proud glancea which he cast on the gold chain raised a smile on the faces of his fellow passengers. Apparently by accident, though mischief might have been at the bot'om of It. the subject of watches was "brought on the carpet." "Ah!" sighel an old farmer, giving the watch bark to the young man. who had handed It around for the Inspection of the company, "that theer watch 'minds me o' my own son." "How's that?" asked several passengers. "Why, 1 gave Mm a watch when 'c wur fifteen year owd. an* it wur th" ruin of "Im." Being asked for an explanation, the farmer con- tinued: "Afore I gave It "im "c wur the straightest built lad tor miles around; but 'c 'adn't 'ad that watch above four months afore "c growed 'umpbacked wi" lookin" at the chain so much."— Tit-Bits. The old and the new mingle in China. The news- papers from the East tell of a Jail mutiny in Can- ton in which thirteen prisoners escaped. The au- thorities failed to capture them, but issued orders that all their relatives should be arrested and Im- prisoned until they could give information as to the hiding place of the escaped prisoners. But before long they were offered their freedom on condition that they paid 820© to the police. $130 for the chief and $80 for the rank and file. The bargain was clinched, the money paid, and the circumstances duly chronic led as a news item in the native press. In Fatshan preparations were under way to cele- brate the birthday of their idol Saen Kal. But an opposition party arose. They urged that If the money were to be spent at all. it had bet- ter be spent In cleaning up the drains In the neighborhood, since. If there should be any- thing in the Westers, theory of cleanliness, the community would benefit more than by propitiating Saen Kai. who did little to stay the plague, in spite of the festivals In his honor. The opposition won the day. and the money Intended for Saen Kal went to the drains. A good story Is told of a beater on a grouse drive on a Yorkshire moor. He had observed the ineffectual efforts of a soldier who shot a great deal but killed nothing. A solitary old grouse ap- proached his butt at a leisurely pace, giving the gunner ample time to miss with his first barrel. and after taking very deliberate aim with the sec- ond he allowed the bird to pursue his way un- scathed. "Now, draw your sword to him. Cap- tain!" the Yorkshireman encouragingly shouted. The gun was ineffective, and there seemed time to repair the failure of hot lead with cold steel. HOW TO MAKEONE.

A Manchester man writes to "The Guardian" to tell how he caught a sparrow on the wing. He was running for a car. A few yards in front ofthlm was a sparrow picking at a bread crust. Up sprang the bird, and, with a cricketer's instinctive action when the ball Is bounding near, out went hl9 hand. He caught the sparrow and held him prisoner until he reached the car. The writer felt compelled to add that the bird was not strong on the wing. He was moulting and had lost all his tall feathers, and. further, was heavily handicapped by the bread in his bill. THE TALK OF THE DAT. The Democratic campaign has begun with a brisk exhibition of pane smashing. How many glass fronts* will be left when the stone throwers warm up a little with excitement and exercise? The president of the NMsswgJ bsasjM w i= •> approved the protest of the New Tork stgft against the forfeiting to Chicago of the base- ball game of August 7. when the managonvn'. gj the New Tork club forcibly excluded the regu- larly appointed umpire from the ground? hi doing so he will doubtless bo sustained by all lovers of decent sport. There are several evils of the baseball field which need sharp and Im- mediate correction. The bullying and Insulting of umpires by members of the playing; clubs should not be tolerated. The abuse of umpires and of players by spectators is equally detest- able. The Brooklyn games have for some time been notorious for the latter evil. Every honest effort to suppress such practices and restore baseball to the honorable status of years ago Is sure of hearty support. Cuba and Santo Domingo seem to have gone on a sympathetic strike with the South Ameri- can earthquake. Readers of "Robinson Crusoe" will be glad to learn that the Island Juan PsrsjgasiM tsi «wl swallowed by the Chilian earthquake, th ..ugh the world could better spare the Island than the book.

THE SVLLIYAX "riSDICATIOW" The Hon. William J. Bryan is a political moralist. The Hon. Roger C. Sullivan is a political humorist. Humor and morals do not always mix, and in the hand-to-hand encounter just concluded in Illinois the humorist seems to have triumphed and the moralist seems to have been worsted. Mr. Sullivan's Idea of humor in politics is to profess one thing and practise another. He Is not worried over petty inconsistencies between logic and conduct, and can smile indulgently at the ingenuousness of critics who iusist on squaring words with deeds and backing up opinions by action. As is well known. Colonel Bryan and Mr. Sullivan differ about a little matter of malversation. Colonel Bry:«» holds that Mr. Sullivan is a receiver of stolen goods— that his title as a member 'of the Democratic National Committee is tainted. Mr. Sullivan asserts, on the contrary, that the title in dispute is technically flawless, and that, though be may have profited to some extent by the "hold-up" engineered by the "reorgau- izers" at Springfield two years ago, all defects and irregularities in his commission were cured when the Democratic National Conven- tion seated the delegation which elected him. Colonel Bryan was convinced— as any disinter' ested student of the record will be convinced— that the Illinois State Convention of 1904 was controlled by trickery and violence, and at St. Ixmis be made a passionate but unsuccess- ful appeal to the "conservative" majority not to set the seal of its approval on a flagrant exhibition of political larceny. The Nebraska leader was in apogee then, and his protests were fruitless. Now that be has been rediscovered and rehaloized, he has set about undoing the outrage committed at St. Louis. He lias publicly called on Mr. Sullivan to resign, and has announced that he does not care for the support or indorsement of a state willing to tolerate a receiver of stolen goods as Its representative on the national commit- tee. Logic and self-respect should have com- pelled the Illinois Democrats to face the issue raised by Colonel Bryan. But the Peoria con- vention pusillanimously dodged it. A facing- both-wayg policy was decided on, and the Illi- nois Democracy elected to try to carry Bryan on one shoulder and Sullivan on the other, just as the Democracy is trying here to balance Jerome against Hearst, and in Massachusetts to balance Moran against Whitney. Mr. Sullivan's friends easily controlled the stato convention. Yet, as we have said. Mr. Sullivan is a humorist, and he cheerfully in- structed his followers to pass a resolution In whi'h the man who called him a receiver of stolen goods and denounced him as unfit to associate with honest Democrats was lauded as "fittest to lead In the fight to rescue our "gr.verr.nicnt from the hands of special inter- "ests and restore it to ail the people." Said Mr. Sullivan through his committee on resolutions: •*TUe th»« calls for a President of Bryan's Mr. Jerome has taken the preliminary steps in his demonstration. Like a brave man be issues forth into the open. No one on this green earth, high or low. Republican or Democrat, political boss or newspaper satrap, shall deny him bis in- born right, his political liberty guaranteed to him by the Constitution and the blood of the martyrs to hustle for the delegates. An ancient political right, to curtail which is to subvert our free institutions, to make us something less than men. is thus grandly vindicated by Mr. Jerome. But he has no monopoly of this knightly enter- prise. Mr. Hearst, his deadly rival in the hatred of Mr. Murphy. Is several counties ahead of him In the exhibition of inherent political rights. Since Monday, however, no Insolent boss, grown great upon the meat of honest graft, will have the hardihood to deny that ancient political liberty, the right to hustle for delegates. To this end. then, the solemn "salvos, postulatums and preparatives." THE POLITICAL LIBERTY ISSUE. Mr. Jerome is back in that year of grace and verbiage 11*0,. Time loads him now!; the;-. He speaks, and we. live over again our yesterdays. It seems last fall. The joys and sorrows of I twelvemonth may be forgotten in the ne- penthe of bis inexhaustible vocabulary. "Polit- ical panhandler" is new, but it belongs to last October. It is posthumous. It conies a thought -or a year, which is It?—too late. Where are the fights of that halcyon and vociferous era? Right here, right on earth. The same armored champions of right clatter valiantly in their panoply. The dead are sitting up and taking notice of the new thumps that are coming their way. The same pair of heroes defend the en- slaved people. The game villain gets what is coming to him in the way of vituperation and contracts. Mr. Jerome and Mr. Hearst shout to him a synchronous and homologous defiance. It is yesteryear. Then "bartender of Good Ground" and "Where did he get it" were the common language of these two champions. With Jerome gas the Hearst balloon was inflated. Both baited the bosses. Both were, are and ever more will be going to put Mr. Murphy down. The Tammany leader has his preference, to be sure, betwixt his Immolators, but that is his affair. Both are "Independents." Both are fighting for "political liberty." It was last year's issue with Mr. Jerome, and by it Mr. Hearst profited as much as anybody. Can the unfathomed resources of the District Attorney's vocabulary revitalize It? Last year he was a quasi-Judicial officer, to whom the bosses re- fused a renomination because of his politi- cal fractiousness. He went before the peo- ple and told them they could choose their own District Attorney, not restricted to the can- didates offered to them by parties in convention assembled. There was then a public desire for his continuance in office. He appealed to the popular imagination as a solitary figure pitted against a powerful organization. There was gen- eral Indignation that a semi-judicial officer who bad served creditably should be punished for his independence. To-day who is punishing him for his faithfulness to his trust r-d to the people by refusing him a nomination for Governor? What boss shall he flout Ifhe falls of the Buf- falo nomination? What boss shall be excoriate If be gets it? Shall he run alone and cry out that both parties should have named him for Governor, and will be find the voters ready to believe him, as they were when he said he should have received a non-partisan nomination for District Attorney last November? Who is the Charlie Murphy of the Democracy of the state who holds the fate of the ambitious in the hollow of his hand, and to revolt against whom is to give a magnificent demonstration of the great issue of personal liberty In politics? Neither brains nor brute force leads the state Democracy ; It neither follows the persuasion of shrewd political sense nor troops to the cracking of a whip. It does not know "where ItIs at" whether a month hence it will be radical or re- actionary, whether it will then believe In follow- ing the ancient traditions of the Republic or In ingrafting upon our government the untried de- vices of experimental socialism. No Tildeu leads itby his Intellectual predominance, no Hill by his political craft, no Croker by his brute energy. It is a chaos of a party, held together only by a common name, containing the makings of two minor parties. Who in this conglomeration of discordant elements restrains Mr. Jerome's polit- ical liberty? We should like to see that bad man in the stocks. We should like to see him before the pointed finger of scorn. We should like to see him wither under Mr. Jerome's scathing de- nunciation. But unless the monster can be pro- duced, what outlet is there for a year's accumu- lation of invective? other American states. . : ADd fo. despite these little '-".which loom hlgger In dispatches ibau in real life, they arc making up their minds that, as John Hay used to remark, revo- lutions | just" for the Bake of "revolutlng" have gone out of fashion. It was reported lnst spriu« that three men connected with the South Kensington Museum in I>>nAon bad anticipated the Italian prince in the conquest of Kuweuzorl. The statement had an element of truth In it, but was not altogether correct The particular peak the top of wbfch they attained (Klyanja) is, a«-cordiug to their own account, only K379 feet high. The Eng- lishmen also gay that until the last moment they believed they were attacking: the loftiest moun- tain in the chain, but Übat tluor discovered when MOUXT MARGHERITA. Futly two months have elapsed since the Duke of the Abruzzi won his freshest laurels as an explorer, but only within a few days has a detailed account of his achievements in Central Africa become available for scrutiny. 'Hence it Is now possible for the first time to dispel several uncertainties which have existed since the suc- cess of the Italian was briefly announced by cable. t Geographers will be glad to learn that the height of the loftiest peak in the Ruwenzorl range is determined beyond a doubt by baro- metric measurement, and is no longer a matter of guesswork, however shrewd. This summit, which in honor of the Queen Dowager of Italy has been named Marglierita. rises to an ele- vation of 18.220 feet, and is. therefore, one hun- dred feet higher than Mount St. Elias. which the Duke of tin* Abruzzi ascended in 1897. The difficulties of mountain climbing are not. of course, exactly proportionate to height above sea level, but "on the face of the returns" the performance of uinc years ago has now been surpassed. Again, something besides low prices will be found to be essential to an extensive indus- trial use of alcohol. Many of those who will be benefited by the now resource which is to be put at their disposal have something still to learn about it. "The Industrial World " com- mented at length a few weeks ago on the fact that the pver the alcohol the lower the tem- perature at which it will vaporize and explode in the cylinder of a gas engine That i>eriodi- cal pointed out that a novice might get disap- pointing results with a low grade of fluid, whereas a better quality would gire him pre- cisely the service he desired. This is only one instance amoug a uumlter which mi^ht be cited to show that consumers must study how to make the most of their coveted opportunities. Finally, it is probable that the manufacturers of certain classes of machinery, notably gns engines, will find it desirable to make some modifications in their products to insure the highest efficiency with alcohoi. Very likely they are studying the question now. but until they announce the outcome of their investigations prudent persons will hesitate to make pur- chases. The cautious tone which Mr. Yerkes adopts In discussing this matter is to be commended. American Ingenuity and energy justify the ex pectation that after a few years the United States will afford an example to other coun- tries which will be extremely influential, but it would be a mistake to look for a sudden and vast revolution in the immediate future. One reason for entertaining modest hopes at the outset is that the utilization of alcohol abroad has not yet taken place on a great scale. An- other and more important consideration is {bat no one can now say an; thing definite about the prices which will prevail here during the first few mouths after the new law has gone into effect. When once it is evident— as we believe it will be In the course of a year or two—that alcohol can compete on even terms with gaso- lene, there should be a large demand for it but no one to-day can supply market quota- tions for next January. PREPARING FOR CHEAP ALCOHOL. The United States Commissioner of Internal Revenue, who has just returned from Europe, declares that denatured alcohol not yet supplanted gasolene there. The only automo- biles which were propelled by spirits, so far as his observation went, were in Germany. Nevertheless, he appears to be confident that in time this country will be in a position to teach the world a good deal about the possi- ble uses of alcohol. Mr. Root's visit to Chili will l>e accomplished under widely different clrcumstauces from those which were a few days ago expected. But it will be no less interesting to both nations, if, indeed, it does not lead to closer relations and a stronger bond of friendship than could have been foreseen. It will be Mr. Root's privilege to bear in person a message of heartfelt sympathy and to receive the confident assurance that Chili is supporting her misfortune with no less forti- tude and recuperative energy than our own peo- ple liave displayed in the face of a similar dis- aster. MR. ROOTS VISIT TO CHILI. Tracing in reverse the historic course of the Oregon, the Secretary of State has now left Argentina for Chili. To this stage of bis prog- ress a peculiar interest is attached. Those two southernmost republics of the continent, lying side by side and enjoying intimate social and commercial relationships, while topographically strongly contrasted, have in many respects been much alike. Each has been likened to our own country. Argentina being called the United States of South America, and the people of Chili, because of their energy, enterprise and progress, being called the Yankees of South America- phrases which we are glad to recognize as com- plimentary to us, as well as to them. The great cities of each have been marked with a culture and an opulent splendor comparable with those of any of the world's capitals, and a degree of civic stability and integrity hns been attained by both, entitling them to assured places among the important powers of the world. In such a happy condition and amid joyous* anticipations of the coming celebration of her centenary, Mr. Root leaves Argentina. A week ago be would have found Chili in a like pros- perous condition. As Itis. he will find the west- ern republic in mourning, her palaces laid waste, her marts of commerce desolated, her people stricken with losses, wounds and death, through such a calamity as seldom comes to any land, though such as we ourselves have recently suf- fered. The contrast between Buenos Ayres and Valparaiso will be striking and distressful. It may be that these unhappy conditions will cause a change of plans. A house of mourning is not a house of entertainment. That, however, will doubtless be as the Chilians themselves wish and prescribe. bonesty. sincerity, and political philosophy." But when the . Nebraska leader actually at- tempted to demonstrate bis sincerity and put his philosophy V into practice. Mr. Sullivan ami ill* Illinois Dmocrats could not hear. time call- ing. Tlioy wen- willing'to talec as much Bryau- istic philosophy as was necessary in the ab- stract,-but bolted at tlie Idea of baring it lo- cally applied. It is .to be regretted that Colonel Bryan failed ill Ins effort to discipline Mr. Sullivan. It is greatly to the Nebraska statesman's credit that be raised the tainted title issue. We have been too lax about condoning successful political frauds. Because property rights are not di- rectly . involved we are disposed to leave the beneficiaries of wrongdoing at the polls or in conventions undisturbed. It is a wholesome thing to go behind the official record some- times, as Colonel Bryan did in this case, and to pillory the holder of an office or dignity im- properly earned. Mr. Sullivan's retort to Colo- nel Bryan's attack is to praise him for his "honesty, sincerity and philosophy." But every politician is not so armor plated in cynicism as the Illinois national committeeman, and much can be done by courageous and outspoken criticism to lessen the enjoyment of power in politics acquired by force and fraud. *Amußementt.

THE CUBAN TROUBLES.

The troubles In Cuba appear to be increasingin severity. They do not yet amount to any-thin? like civil nir. and it is not to be antici-pated that they will. But they do amount to aserious insurrection, in which there seems to bea combination of professional brigands in questof loot, of disappointed offlceseekers striving towin by awe what they failed to get by lawfulmeans, and of those professional revolutioniststo whom periodical uprisings are the verybreath of life. That the people of Cuba or auyconsiderable portion of them are behind themovement or sympathize with it does not ap-

.pear. Rut in so mercurial a country and one solong accustomed to insurrectionary movementsalmost anything may happen. Wherefore it isearnestly to be hoped that the insular govern-ment willpromptly put forth a strong hand and

L atone for being caught napping by suppressing*the revolt in a thorough manner.

There is no ground for sympathy in this coun-try with the insurgents, for there is not theslightest evidence of moral or civic principle intheir. campaign or of cause for their uprisingother than of the most selfish and sordid de-scription. Ifwe grant that the major motiveis not larcenous, but political, even then wemust regard it as aiming at the overthrow ofa government which has done uncommonly well,and which deserves uncommonly well of Cuba,and at replacing it with a government of untriedand unknown qualities, hut which, however virt-uous and competent, would be compromised inadvance by the lawless manner of its accession.Upon such an achievement this nation and the\u25a0world would look with decided suspicion anddisfavor, and upon what we must regard as afutile attempt at it they look with strong repro-bation.Iti*.of course, to be borne In mind, and en-

tirely without offence, that many of our Latin-American friends are revolutionists by heredityand tradition and training, and are naturallyprone to "rise." hs sparks are to flyupward. Inview of their antecedents, the chief wonder isthat they do not more frequently manifest theirInsurgent tendencies, and we must regard themas entitled to commendation and congratulationon the expedition with which they have solargely transformed their dispositions. It isalso gratifying and encouraging to observethat the relationship of the United States tothose, countries is exceedingly influential . forthe maintenance of peace and order. We do notmoau that fear of this country is, like the fearof lieil, "a hangman.-; whip, to keep the worldin order." But far more agreeable to note-there In arising among the intelligent and re*fleeting nwaass of the people in those countriesa resolution to liveupnot merely to the standarddesired, but to tue example set by the United~*>itcs—aiid by Brazil, Argentina, Mexico and

Wedding Kept Secret More Than a Month—Bride a Widow.

It became known yesterday that J. Q. A. Ward,

one of the oldest American sculptors, had beenmarried for more than a month, hi' bride beinghis former landlady. Mrs. Rachel M. OstranderSmith, the widow of an artist. Mr. Ward, who isseventy-six years old. takes his 'marriage, whichhas occasioned much comment among his friends,in a matter-of-fact way. The marriage was kepta secret. Mr. Ward says, to avoid notoriety.

The wedding took place July 19 at the CollegiateReformed Church, at West End avenue and 77thstreet, the Rev. Herman Webber officiating. AMiss Wilson and the sexton were the only wit-nesses.Mr. and Mrs. Ward have known each other for

about forty years, since she was about ten yearsold. She lived at Newburg then, and he at L'r-bana, Ohio. Mr. Ward has been twice married be-fore. His first wife died about seven years aftertheir marriage and his second wife lived a yearand a half only after marriage. Among the worksof Mr. Ward in this city are the statues of Wash-ington in Wall street, the Indian Hunter and thePilgrim in Central Park and the statue of HoraceGreeley in front of The Tribune Building.

Mrs. Ward, whose home has been at No. 31West 84th street, where Mr. Ward has boardedsince his wife moved to this city, had been awidow for nearly twenty years. She has a son.Raymond, an artist, livingin Chicago

The benevolent old gentleman got on the wall,and for the next quarter of an hour tried hard todispel his ignorance.

"Now," he sail *t last, "as you know somethingabout the matter. Ihope you will spread yourknowledge among your mates on the farm."

"But Idon't work on a farm." replied the ruralcitiaen.

ItRuined Him.—Quite recently into a railway car-riage at Oldham stepped a young man. fresh fromschool evidently, and wearing his Orst watch.

The very many proud glancea which he cast onthe gold chain raised a smile on the faces of hisfellow passengers.

Apparently by accident, though mischief mighthave been at the bot'om of It. the subject ofwatches was "brought on the carpet."

"Ah!" sighel an old farmer, giving the watchbark to the young man. who had handed It aroundfor the Inspection of the company, "that theerwatch 'minds me o' my own son."

"How's that?" asked several passengers."Why, 1 gave Mm a watch when 'c wur fifteen

tinued:"Afore Igave It "im "c wur the straightest built

The old and the new mingle inChina. The news-papers from the East tell of a Jail mutiny in Can-ton in which thirteen prisoners escaped. The au-thorities failed to capture them, but issued ordersthat all their relatives should be arrested and Im-prisoned until they could give information as to thehiding place of the escaped prisoners. But beforelong they were offered their freedom on conditionthat they paid 820© to the police. $130 for the chiefand $80 for the rank and file. The bargain wasclinched, the money paid, and the circumstancesduly chronic led as a news item in the native press.In Fatshan preparations were under way to cele-brate the birthday of their idol Saen Kal. But anopposition party arose. They urged that If themoney were to be spent at all. it had bet-ter be spent In cleaning up the drains Inthe neighborhood, since. If there should be any-thing in the Westers, theory of cleanliness, thecommunity would benefit more than by propitiatingSaen Kai. who did little to stay the plague, in spiteof the festivals In his honor. The opposition wonthe day. and the money Intended for Saen Kal wentto the drains.

A good story Is told of a beater on a grousedrive on a Yorkshire moor. He had observed theineffectual efforts of a soldier who shot a greatdeal but killed nothing. A solitary old grouse ap-proached his butt at a leisurely pace, giving thegunner ample time to miss with his first barrel.and after taking very deliberate aim with the sec-ond he allowed the bird to pursue his way un-scathed. "Now, draw your sword to him. Cap-tain!" the Yorkshireman encouragingly shouted.The gun was ineffective, and there seemed timeto repair the failure of hot lead with cold steel.

THE TALK OF THE DAT.

The Democratic campaign has begun with abrisk exhibition of pane smashing. How manyglass fronts* willbe left when the stone throwerswarm up a little with excitement and exercise?

The president of the NMsswgJ bsasjM w i= •>approved the protest of the New Tork stgft

against the forfeiting to Chicago of the base-

ball game of August 7. when the managonvn'. gj

the New Tork club forcibly excluded the regu-larly appointed umpire from the ground? hidoing so he will doubtless bo sustained by alllovers of decent sport. There are several evilsof the baseball field which need sharp and Im-

mediate correction. The bullying and Insulting

of umpires by members of the playing; clubsshould not be tolerated. The abuse of umpires

and of players by spectators is equally detest-able. The Brooklyn games have for some timebeen notorious for the latter evil. Every honesteffort to suppress such practices and restore

baseball to the honorable status of years ago Issure of hearty support.

THE SVLLIYAX"riSDICATIOW"

The Hon. William J. Bryan is a politicalmoralist. The Hon. Roger C. Sullivan is apolitical humorist. Humor and morals do notalways mix, and in the hand-to-hand encounterjust concluded in Illinois the humorist seemsto have triumphed and the moralist seems tohave been worsted. Mr. Sullivan's Idea ofhumor in politics is to profess one thing andpractise another. He Is not worried over pettyinconsistencies between logic and conduct, andcan smile indulgently at the ingenuousness ofcritics who iusist on squaring words with deedsand backing up opinions by action. As is wellknown. Colonel Bryan and Mr. Sullivan differabout a little matter of malversation. ColonelBry:«» holds that Mr. Sullivan is a receiver ofstolen goods— that his title as a member 'ofthe Democratic National Committee is tainted.Mr. Sullivan asserts, on the contrary, that thetitle in dispute is technically flawless, and that,though be may have profited to some extentby the "hold-up" engineered by the "reorgau-izers" at Springfield two years ago, all defectsand irregularities in his commission werecured when the Democratic National Conven-

tion seated the delegation which elected him.Colonel Bryan was convinced— as any disinter'ested student of the record will be convinced—that the Illinois State Convention of 1904 wascontrolled by trickery and violence, and atSt. Ixmis be made a passionate but unsuccess-ful appeal to the "conservative" majority not

to set the seal of its approval on a flagrant

exhibition of political larceny.

The Nebraska leader was in apogee then, andhis protests were fruitless. Now that be hasbeen rediscovered and rehaloized, he has setabout undoing the outrage committed at St.Louis. He lias publicly called on Mr. Sullivanto resign, and has announced that he does notcare for the support or indorsement of a statewilling to tolerate a receiver of stolen goodsas Its representative on the national commit-tee. Logic and self-respect should have com-pelled the Illinois Democrats to face the issueraised by Colonel Bryan. But the Peoria con-vention pusillanimously dodged it. A facing-both-wayg policy was decided on, and the Illi-nois Democracy elected to try to carry Bryan

on one shoulder and Sullivan on the other, just

as the Democracy is trying here to balanceJerome against Hearst, and in Massachusettsto balance Moran against Whitney.

Mr. Sullivan's friends easily controlled thestato convention. Yet, as we have said. Mr.Sullivan is a humorist, and he cheerfully in-

structed his followers to pass a resolution Inwhi'h the man who called him a receiver ofstolen goods and denounced him as unfit toassociate with honest Democrats was laudedas "fittest to lead In the fight to rescue our"gr.verr.nicnt from the hands of special inter-"ests and restore it to ail the people." Said Mr.Sullivan through his committee on resolutions:•*TUe th»« calls for a President of Bryan's

Mr. Jerome has taken the preliminary steps inhis demonstration. Like a brave man be issuesforth into the open. No one on this green earth,high or low. Republican or Democrat, politicalboss or newspaper satrap, shall deny him bis in-born right, his political liberty

—guaranteed to

him by the Constitution and the blood of themartyrs

—to hustle for the delegates. An ancient

political right, to curtail which is to subvert ourfree institutions, to make us something less thanmen. is thus grandly vindicated by Mr. Jerome.But he has no monopoly of this knightly enter-prise. Mr. Hearst, his deadly rival in thehatred of Mr. Murphy. Is several counties aheadof him In the exhibition of inherent politicalrights. Since Monday, however, no Insolentboss, grown great upon the meat of honestgraft, will have the hardihood to deny thatancient political liberty, the right to hustlefor delegates. To this end. then, the solemn"salvos, postulatums and preparatives."

THE POLITICAL LIBERTY ISSUE.

Mr. Jerome is back in that year of grace andverbiage 11*0,. Time loads him now!; the;-. Hespeaks, and we. live over again our yesterdays.It seems last fall. The joys and sorrows ofItwelvemonth may be forgotten in the ne-penthe of bis inexhaustible vocabulary. "Polit-ical panhandler" is new, but it belongs to lastOctober. Itis posthumous. Itconies a thought

-or a year, which is It?—too late. Where arethe fights of that halcyon and vociferous era?Right here, right on earth. The same armoredchampions of right clatter valiantly in theirpanoply. The dead are sitting up and taking

notice of the new thumps that are coming theirway. The same pair of heroes defend the en-

slaved people. The game villain gets what iscoming to him in the way of vituperation andcontracts. Mr. Jerome and Mr. Hearst shoutto him a synchronous and homologous defiance.It is yesteryear. Then "bartender of Good

Ground" and "Where did he get it" were thecommon language of these two champions. WithJerome gas the Hearst balloon was inflated.Both baited the bosses. Both were, are and evermore willbe going to put Mr. Murphy down.

The Tammany leader has his preference, tobe sure, betwixt his Immolators, but that ishis affair. Both are "Independents." Both arefighting for "political liberty." It was lastyear's issue with Mr. Jerome, and by it Mr.Hearst profited as much as anybody. Can theunfathomed resources of the District Attorney'svocabulary revitalize It? Last year he was aquasi-Judicial officer, to whom the bosses re-

fused a renomination because of his politi-cal fractiousness. He went before the peo-ple and told them they could choose their

own District Attorney, not restricted to the can-didates offered to them by parties in conventionassembled. There was then a public desire for

his continuance in office. He appealed to thepopular imagination as a solitary figure pittedagainst a powerful organization. There was gen-

eral Indignation that a semi-judicial officer who

bad served creditably should be punished for hisindependence. To-day who is punishing him for

his faithfulness to his trust r-d to the peopleby refusing him a nomination for Governor?What boss shall he flout Ifhe falls of the Buf-falo nomination? What boss shall be excoriateIfbe gets it? Shall he run alone and cry outthat both parties should have named him forGovernor, and will be find the voters ready to

believe him, as they were when he said heshould have received a non-partisan nominationfor District Attorney last November?

Who is the Charlie Murphy of the Democracy

of the state who holds the fate of the ambitiousin the hollow of his hand, and to revolt against

whom is to give a magnificent demonstration ofthe great issue of personal liberty In politics?

Neither brains nor brute force leads the stateDemocracy ;Itneither follows the persuasion ofshrewd political sense nor troops to the crackingof a whip. Itdoes not know "where ItIs at"

—whether a month hence it willbe radical or re-actionary, whether itwill then believe In follow-ing the ancient traditions of the Republic or Iningrafting upon our government the untried de-vices of experimental socialism. No Tildeu leadsitby his Intellectual predominance, no Hillby hispolitical craft, no Croker by his brute energy.Itis a chaos of a party, held together only by acommon name, containing the makings of two

minor parties. Who in this conglomeration ofdiscordant elements restrains Mr. Jerome's polit-ical liberty? We should like to see that bad manin the stocks. We should like to see him beforethe pointed finger of scorn. We should like to

see him wither under Mr. Jerome's scathing de-nunciation. But unless the monster can be pro-duced, what outlet is there for a year's accumu-lation of invective?

MOUXT MARGHERITA.Futly two months have elapsed since the Duke

of the Abruzzi won his freshest laurels as anexplorer, but only within a few days has adetailed account of his achievements in CentralAfrica become available for scrutiny. 'Hence itIs now possible for the first time to dispel severaluncertainties which have existed since the suc-cess of the Italian was briefly announced bycable. t

Geographers will be glad to learn that theheight of the loftiest peak in the Ruwenzorlrange is determined beyond a doubt by baro-metric measurement, and is no longer a matterof guesswork, however shrewd. This summit,which in honor of the Queen Dowager of Italyhas been named Marglierita. rises to an ele-vation of 18.220 feet, and is. therefore, one hun-dred feet higher than Mount St. Elias. whichthe Duke of tin* Abruzzi ascended in 1897. Thedifficulties of mountain climbing are not. ofcourse, exactly proportionate to height abovesea level, but "on the face of the returns" theperformance of uinc years ago has now beensurpassed.

Again, something besides low prices will befound to be essential to an extensive indus-trial use of alcohol. Many of those who willbe benefited by the now resource which is tobe put at their disposal have something stillto learn about it. "The Industrial World

"com-

mented at length a few weeks ago on the factthat the pver the alcohol the lower the tem-perature at which it willvaporize and explode

in the cylinder of a gas engine That i>eriodi-cal pointed out that a novice might get disap-pointing results with a low grade of fluid,

whereas a better quality would gire him pre-cisely the service he desired. This is only one

instance amoug a uumlter which mi^ht be citedto show that consumers must study how to

make the most of their coveted opportunities.Finally, it is probable that the manufacturers

of certain classes of machinery, notably gns

engines, will find it desirable to make somemodifications in their products to insure thehighest efficiency with alcohoi. Very likely they

are studying the question now. but until theyannounce the outcome of their investigations

prudent persons will hesitate to make pur-chases.

The cautious tone which Mr. Yerkes adoptsIn discussing this matter is to be commended.American Ingenuity and energy justify the expectation that after a few years the UnitedStates will afford an example to other coun-tries which will be extremely influential, butit would be a mistake to look for a sudden andvast revolution in the immediate future. Onereason for entertaining modest hopes at theoutset is that the utilization of alcohol abroadhas not yet taken place on a great scale. An-

other and more important consideration is {batno one can now say an; thing definite about theprices which will prevail here during the firstfew mouths after the new law has gone intoeffect. When once it is evident— as we believeit will be In the course of a year or two— thatalcohol can compete on even terms with gaso-lene, there should be a large demand for itbut no one to-day can supply market quota-tions for next January.

PREPARING FOR CHEAP ALCOHOL.

The United States Commissioner of InternalRevenue, who has just returned from Europe,declares that denatured alcohol not yetsupplanted gasolene there. The only automo-biles which were propelled by spirits, so faras his observation went, were in Germany.Nevertheless, he appears to be confident thatin time this country will be in a position toteach the world a good deal about the possi-ble uses of alcohol.

Mr. Root's visit to Chili will l>e accomplishedunder widely different clrcumstauces from thosewhich were a few days ago expected. But itwill be no less interesting to both nations, if,indeed, it does not lead to closer relations anda stronger bond of friendship than could havebeen foreseen. Itwillbe Mr. Root's privilege to

bear in person a message of heartfelt sympathy

and to receive the confident assurance that Chiliis supporting her misfortune with no less forti-tude and recuperative energy than our own peo-ple liave displayed in the face of a similar dis-aster.

MR. ROOTS VISIT TO CHILI.

Tracing in reverse the historic course of theOregon, the Secretary of State has now leftArgentina for Chili. To this stage of bis prog-

ress a peculiar interest is attached. Those twosouthernmost republics of the continent, lying

side by side and enjoying intimate social andcommercial relationships, while topographicallystrongly contrasted, have inmany respects been

much alike. Each has been likened to our owncountry. Argentina being called the United

States of South America, and the people of Chili,

because of their energy, enterprise and progress,being called the Yankees of South America-phrases which we are glad to recognize as com-plimentary to us, as well as to them. The great

cities of each have been marked with a cultureand an opulent splendor comparable with thoseof any of the world's capitals, and a degree ofcivic stability and integrity hns been attained byboth, entitling them to assured places among theimportant powers of the world.

In such a happy condition and amid joyous*

anticipations of the coming celebration of hercentenary, Mr. Root leaves Argentina. A weekago be would have found Chili in a like pros-perous condition. As Itis. he will find the west-ern republic inmourning, her palaces laid waste,her marts of commerce desolated, her peoplestricken with losses, wounds and death, through

such a calamity as seldom comes to any land,though such as we ourselves have recently suf-fered. The contrast between Buenos Ayres andValparaiso will be striking and distressful. Itmay be that these unhappy conditions willcausea change of plans. A house of mourning is nota house of entertainment. That, however, willdoubtless be as the Chilians themselves wishand prescribe.

bonesty. sincerity, and political philosophy."

But when the .Nebraska leader actually at-tempted to demonstrate bis sincerity and put

his philosophy Vinto practice. Mr. Sullivan amiill*Illinois Dmocrats could not hear. time call-

ing. Tlioy wen- willing'to talec as much Bryau-

istic philosophy as was necessary in the ab-stract,-but bolted at tlie Idea of baring it lo-cally applied.

Itis .to be regretted that Colonel Bryan failedillIns effort to discipline Mr. Sullivan. It isgreatly to the Nebraska statesman's credit that

be raised the tainted title issue. We have been

too lax about condoning successful politicalfrauds. Because property rights are not di-rectly .involved we are disposed to leave thebeneficiaries of wrongdoing at the polls or in

conventions undisturbed. It is a wholesomething to go behind the official record some-times, as Colonel Bryan did in this case, and

to pillory the holder of an office or dignity im-properly earned. Mr. Sullivan's retort to Colo-

nel Bryan's attack is to praise him for his"honesty, sincerity and philosophy." But every

politician is not so armor plated in cynicism

as the Illinois national committeeman, andmuch can be done by courageous and outspoken

criticism to lessen the enjoyment of power inpolitics acquired by force and fraud.
