II he deserves it at oil, he deserves 1t

the morbid constituencies exhibited by
this poor-spirited editor. A man who
is afraid Of ridicule and always on the

not supported by self-respect sufficient to

regard for the opinion Of others which

ness TO the public. and thus provokes them
to aggravate 1t.
That is not the distinguishing Jewish
quality. The Jews are strong and increas-

they are not seeking to win consideration

The assignment OF the Philadelphia to
duty at Honolulu does not indicate the need
OF an increased naval force there. since on her
arrival the Boston will at once proceed
to Mare Island for that extensive overhauling
which her protracted service In the Pacific.
and particularly In tropical waters. requires.
1t is significant, however. that. much as these
repairs were needed. the Washington authori-
ties were unwilling to leave the Adams alone
to guard our Hawaiian interests. even during
the brief period required for the Philadelphia
to proceed to Honolulu from Callao.
Again. since the Philadelphia is to leave
Callao without waiting for the Yorktown.
which Is on her way to the Pacific. it seems
clear that the outlook In Peru Is consid cred to
be tolerably tranquil However. II tho fears
OF a revolution there should be revived, the
Alliance can easily 60 south from Corinto as
affairs in Nicaragua are for the present rea-
sonably quiet. The Thets. too. which has
been overhauled at Mare Island. Is now ready
for sea. and is likely to 20 to the Central
American coast for surveying duty il not
needed as q relief for the Alliance. The
Charleston is meanwhile following the York
town around to the Pacific, and there will soon
be force enough available for tho many duties
OF those waters.

Wasted Sympathy.

We find this assertion In an address de-
livered by President SETH Low OF Columbia
College at the Civil Service Reform Con-
gress In Chicago:
mo class of In the country enjoy little OF tho
Fundamental privileges of American citizenship as
the subordnAtes In the public service where the spos
system prevails
or what fundamental privilege of an
American citizen Is an of1iceholder under
the spolls system deprived? President
Low means. We suppose. that an office
holder cannot express Democratic opinions
while he Is holding Office under Repub-
lican control, or Republican opinions
while holding Office under Democratic
control. What OF it? Where the spoile
system Is carried to perfection there are no
Republicans under Democratic Admins
tratiou. and no Democrats under Repub-
Hcan Administration. What right OF privi-
lege can an offlceholder under these condl-
tions loser President Low might az well
say that Baptist clergyman is deprived Of
a fundamental right Of citizenship because
he cannot profess Universalist opinions and
remain Baptist.
An oGiceholder enjoys at least one more
fundamental privilege of an American citi-
zen than the man not in Office; he has an
Office The effort to excite sympathy for
oficeholders as deprived and downtrod-
den class Is excellent fooling. in view of the
general willingness Of Americans to DO SO
downtrodden and deprived.

No Politics In IL.

As tho Hon. WILLIAM @. WHITNEY was
standing around in the National Demo-
cratic Convention Hall. after the adoption
of the silver plank. it has been said that he
was approached by an excited delegate. who
asked with indignation the question,
"what difference Is there between tho
Democratic and Republican platforms on
the currency p To which Mr.. WHITNEY
responded. None 80 far as can see."
The triumphant fool-killer was right. The
two great partisan declarations In ques-
ton, instead OF being aimed at each other,
were framed. with about equal skill, along
parallel lines Of argument and profession
to allay the fears and catch the hopes Of
financiers Of all colors.
There was no Issue on silver in the late
national canvass, and there Is properly no
party conflict over 1t now. Democrats and
Republicans, both alike. are to follow the
dictates OF sense and expediency. Let us re-
peal the SHERMAN law and take our bearings.

The diversity of views upon the practical
working OF the new regulations for BohrinR
Sea seal hunting Ia remarkable. The Cana
dians are bemoaning the future Of pelagic
sealing. which. according to some OF them. is
ruined. Great Britain, they think. secured q
triumph at Paris. on all the legal points sub
mitted for decision; tho United States acquired
the rlRhtto strangle pelagic senling; Canada
simply got left.
But that lie not the way In which some OF our
experts look at the matter. Mr.. II. W. ELLIOTT.
for example. is reported as saying that the
opening OF Behring Sea to sealers after July
81 each year will ruin the commercial value OF
the Pribylov Islands. in spite OF the si1ty-mile
zone. because the seals go ont very much
further for food. The total prohibition against
scaling Ought to run. he thinks. until Oct. 10.
Capt. X. ID. EVANS. also. who formerly COM
manded our seal protection fleet considers the
stNty-mile zone as Of little use. on account Of
the fogs. while a vessel may carry firearms
nominally or really for other purposes and
use them on seals. Then there is the objection
that only Great Britain and the United States
are bound by the decision.
fair judgment. however. is that pelae ic
sealing will be restricted though not wholly
ruined and that the sealo will be preserved
from determination. AS to other nations. no
time should be lost In securing their adhesion
to the new regulations. Russia's interests
plainly lie In that direction. from her owner
ship OF the Commander Islands, and japan
and Hawaii will hardly be expected to lend
their flags to defeat tho new rules when re-
Quested by Great Britain and the United
States to conform to them.
