some waggish reporters at Washington
puzzled number Of Congressman who
had grown rusty in Latin, with this SEN
tence: "Nuaqudma d'ainus sed iOnis ma"
would be absurd, but the ways who re-
vamped it read it, "Never mind, but fire
away" A facetious local correspondent
writes: "Nunquam, etc., was good-but
the other old one, Pas de la Rhone que

have tried this on" If any one had ''tried

Mr.. WENTwoRrH's bill in the Assem-
bly, for the revision of the codes calls for
a commission to overhaul the laws and
report them in systematic order, with
suggestions for notifications and propo-
sitions for harmonizing the codes and
whipping the whole system into SYM
metrical form. The idea is not a bad
one. Some day it must be carried out,
and the mass of legislation on the statute
books brought into orderly shape, which

A Big Country.

The size of this country is a great
source of amazement to the average for
egner. Their establishment is of much
the same nature that once prompted an
English actor, member of Henry Irv-
ing's company, by the way, to remark:
81 never saw such a blawsted big coun-
try. You get in the cars and you ride all
day and all night, and then find that you

foolish laws, the correction of ambigu-
GUS statutes. the simplifcation Of systems
and the general betterment of the codes,
SO that 1t will be possible for the layman
to read them understandingly, and SO
that subjects will be brought together that
are OF the same character, and obscure
enactments affecting general propositions
grouped in place or embodied in simple
propositions and made shorter in form
and more lucid. But we do not believe
that the time has arrived for this work
to be done. The temper of the people at
this moment will not submit to the ex-
pense the bin contemplates, though it is
not great, nor have we settled down in
this State as yet in social or political sys-
TENS to that conservative level that rests
upon policies likely to remain as SUBJ
structural to the whole scheme of State
government. For instance, to harmonic
the laws concerning municipal corpora
tons, to adjust to all sections the county
government system, to unity and unravel
the laws concerning corporations of vari-
GUS orders and character-these and other
tasks are all but impossible until we have
amended the Constitution in several i'm
portant particulars. Under the bill of
Mr.. Wentworth the compensation pro-
vided for the lawyers to compose the
commission is so low that the ability that
should engage in such work will not ac-
cept tho trust. No lawyer competent to
do the work will undertake it for $50 a
month and abandon his practice for two
years-as he would be compelled to do if
he accomplished the task within the time
fixed by the bill.

A BILL is before the Legislature to pay
an artist, named in the bill, to add the
portraits of the late and the present Gov
ernor to the States gallery of portraits at
the Capitol. This is all wrong. 1t is i'm
modest and unfair to name an artist in
the bill, and makes the measure one that
is too personal to receive legislative sane
ton. Another bill before the houses
avoids the objection of personality. 1t
provides for the painting of the portraits,
but names no artist, and leaves il to COM
petent authority to order the work done
by whomsoever that authority may Sc
lect. Under such bill the State will not
be compelled to accept bad work, nor
will it be likely to be presented with in
different portraits, since the officials ap-
pointed by the bill to have the portraiture
executed will be inspired by pride and
moved by duty to get the best possible
for the money. Under the first-named
bill, however, the State would be COM

named chooses to present with her bill.
In fact, the bill referred to is simply
impudent, though we do not suppose that
the Assemblyman who introduced it so
intended it to be. Mr.. Bruner will OBJ
serve, however, that in his bill there is
no provision whatever to protect the
State, and the same is true of Mr.. voor-
HES bill in the Senate-the State
is bound to receive and pay for
whatever the artist may choose. We APP
prehend that Mr.. Bruner would not buy
pictures for his home under such a rule;
he would at least give the payor some
slight opportunity to judge of the value
of the articles rendered under the con-
tract.

Is IT A WEAK PoLICYs

Says the Baltimore Sun, with q partisan
patches to our Minister in London will
hardly commend itself to the sober sense
Of the American people," Indeed! What
basis has the Sun for such a Judgment?
What expressions of dissatisfaction have
the American people made concerning
the tone of the dispatches? Would the
Sun have the United States, as has so
often been done, again Inundated, and
driven by diplomatic cowardice to the
surrender of undeniable rights? Has not
this Democratic partisan sheet, the San,
sufficient breadth of spirit and view to see
national cause through national eyes not
jaundiced by party prejudice?
We are by no means the political cham
pion of Mr.. Blaine, and man-worship is
abhorrent to us, but if in this whole mat
ter he has not comported himself with
honor to his country, then we do not I'M
derstand what constitutes patriotism or
diplomatic dignity.
The Government has not refused ar
arbitration it has not preferred the mare
cld1sena claim; it has not asked CT Great
Britain the surrender of a solitary right or
privilege; it has not even said, as well it
might, that the English Ministry is
pushed to its untenable position by the
insane demands of the Dominion. On
the contrary, it has offered to submit the
only question that can reasonably go to a
board of arbitration, Ibid Russia claim,
and undisputed exercise, exclusive juris-
diction over the fur-seal fisheries ~
''Did Russia convey and assign to the
United States her rights or claims in
marine territory?" If these questions are
decided negatively, then, docs the preser-
walton of the seal fisheries demand that
the nation with most adjoining territory
shall exercise regulative jurisdiction
over them?"
What is there in this that is displeasing
to the sober sense of the American peo-
pie? The Administration, let the San re-
member, did not make the issue. 1t is
one it had no part in formulating. It
came to it legacy from Mr.. Bayard,
who was unable to bring the matter any
where near settlement in his time Let
our contemporary get up and out of the
partisan rut, and look at this matter from
national and not political standpoint,
and its vision will clear wonderfully.
