Who declared she'd not be weighed
Though we tried full half an hour to persuade
her
No entreaties would avail;
She would not go on the scale.

sists upon a return to the scrutin darronusse-
ment, or single member constituencies ana
even hints vaguely at drastic legislation 1or
suppressing Boulangism. These are desperate
remedies. What inference can confused ana
Disconnected country draw from them save that
the situation itself is desperate also?
If the French leaders on the Republican sde
had the courage of their convictions they would
not be alarmed by the ambitious designs of
General Boulanger. As an opposition move
ment Bouangism is formidable AS GOV
eminent party, if it be placed in majority next
year. il will be an unmanageable group Oh
warning factions. Does the General aspire to
the Presidency? 1t would be the part Of wis
dom to let him have it, if it comes in his way.
Louis Napoleon only became really dangerous
when his reelection to that Office was blocked
by Himsy devices in defiance Of the popular
will. General Boulanger would probably soon
exhaust his Fictitious popularity if he were
elected President or appointed Premier with
the Senate strongly Republican, as it will re-
main during the term of the next Chamber OF
IDENTITIES. neither a Boulangst President nor q
Boulangist majority in the popular Chamber
would necessarily involve the country in ruin.
The conspirators would soon fall out, and the
credulous constituencies discover that they had
been led astray by blind and quarresome
guides.
Instead of weakening the Senate and the
Executive office, as NJ. Floquet aims to do in
his revision scheme the wiser policy would
be to strengthen both and thereby to establish
system of checks and balances against the
popular Chamber, which next year may be
controlled by reactonary groups. such a
course Of action would tend to reassure the
country. whereas a radical overhauling of the
Constitution and electoral system will create
confusion and distrust. Civic courage might
become infectious if the leaders were to mani
fest an active faith in the Republic.

roads by Government is greatest or is absolute,
the restraint of competition alike in building
now roads and in operating or charging 1or
traffic does not seem TO bring any benefit what
ever to the people. What reason is there Tor
c,,nnosing that the same tree would bear en-
tirly different fruit in American soil -? Pub
lie business is managed by our Government bet
fer and more economically than private bust
noes - here ard there persons assert. But those
who say so can have no knowledge Of the pres
ont or recent character Of the postal service;
tbov must be entirely ignorant of the discred-
table failures Of the Navy Department, or OF
tbo workings Of the Land Office; they must
know nothing of the delays and plumbers and
waste of money in the Government Pruning
Office; in short, it is hard to guess with what
branch of the service they have any acquain-
lance. "Given better set of men, through
Civil Service reform, and all these evils will
ho remedied.D say others. Is the British official
servce model of efficiency and WISDOM then
English statesmen and English business men
agree that it is not. Civil Service reform does
not avail in this country to keep politicians
of the worst sort out of office, nor to render
public servants more Jealous to serve the pub
lie with efficiency or fidelity, if what has been
called reform by the present Administration
and the professional reformers is taken as the
test
1t may as well be admitted that this country
srIstains its Government in doing great many
things not because they could not be done
more thoroughly or more economically by pr-
vate enterprise, but because they would not by
such enterprise be done at all. There would
be no mal-bags carried at any price in some
quarters which the postal service now reaches
if the revenue alone. were to determine whether
post routes should be extended or not. But as
to railroads, that reason for taking their func-
ton into the hands of Government does not
exist they are pushed faster than the traffic
or settlement Of the country calls for them,
and in many cases into localities where there
never will be sound reason for the building of
new roads "Then let a syndicate of capital
lists determine whether any proposed road is
needed" observe sundry reformers. That is
exactly what has been happening. Syndicates
Of capitalists have been building roads wher-
ever they could get profit out Of them, with
out the slightest regard to the welfare of the
people Certainly less wise suggestion could
hardly be made Railroad freedom, with all
it's evils, is likely to be preferred by the coun-
try unless better suggestions than these can
be offered.

WITHOUT CIVIC COURAGE.

A lack of civic courage is the besetting weak
ness of the French people No other nation
can be compared with them in lucidity Of in
telligenoe; none has keener discernment of po-
htical forces none perhaps is more democratic
in its prevailing tendencies. But with all these
high qualities there is certain fightiness Of
purpose that denotes want of confidence In ex
listing institutions The French are brave In
battle, but consdtutionaly timorous in civic
life. They do not seem to know what it is
to have sense Of security, but are in constant
dread Of impending revolution, usurpation and
chaos With record of sixteen constitutions
and twelve diverse political systems in hun
dred years, they may perhaps be justified in
concluding that whatever Is must be insecure
and cannot endure. But it is this lack Of con-
fdence in the permanence and stability of their
institutions that promotes the growth of pop
ular distrust When the conscript fathers in
Chamber and Senate are aarmists, trembling
for the existence of the Republic and proclaim
ing the country to be on the verge Of an abyss,
the masses cannot be expected to have faith
in the political system Instead of inspiring
the country with courage, the leaders are &C
customing it 10 the idea that everything is I'M
settled, that institutions are In a transition
stage, and that the fortunes Of the Republic
are precarious.
NJ Challemel-Lacour and M. Floquet, while
differing widely in their expedients for avert
ing impending change, agree in their forecasts
and premonitions of evil. The eloquent Sem
ator considers recoil from Radicalism neces-
sary, if the country is to be rescued from Bou-
langism. The wary Premier prefers a policy
of Cancellation by which the Extremists shall
be detached from the Generals cause. One
would march long way toward the Right in
order to concentrate the forces Of law and
Republican order, while the other would make
the Extreme Left the rallying point for all the
warning groups on that side. These are an
/ tagOnisic views, but both unite in declaring
the country to be in imminent danger Of fall
ing at the feet of contemplate military adj
venturer, one of the least of men, One
makes frantic appeal to the conspirators on
the Right to save the country by abandoning
the marplot, Of whom Bonapartists. Royalists,
Clericalists, Extreme Radicals Socialists and

ton that are little less than revolutionary in

RAILRoAD EVILS AND REMEDIES.

How easy it is to say, as many have said
"What we do want is Government regulation
of freight and passenger charges" That was
the very spirit in which Mr. Reagan and the
people behind him undertook the work, and the
practical result thus far, as Mr.. Adams has said
is that the business world gets less regular
tariffs, the determinations are greater and more
injurious, the wars are more frequent and 10
trade more hurtful, the stockholders get lower
dividends, and nobody seems to gain anything.
But there are still found men who with happy
disregard Of all experience, blandly assume
that everything would 60 well If Government
would only regulate a little more In their
view the Interstate act is failure only because
Government does not interfere enough.
European experience ought TO teach the peo-
pie something. While charges in Europe arc
on the whole higher, and the service far less
satisfactory, in countries where control Of rail-
