The New York Egening Post says that
the Monroe doctrine is used to cover up
patriotic rascality. 1t declares that it
was the outcome, in its announce
ment. of the the craft of Charming,
who inveigled President Monroe
into declaring it in 1923. England
wanted it as an aid to her own opposition
to the Holly Alliance. 'This raises the
question:" says the Post, whether any
true patriot can longer stand by doc
trine due to English dictation." We may
not stop for an instant to discuss the
question of fact. At this distance of time
the origine of the doctrine cuts no figure
in the American estimate of it. The fact
is that the citizens of the United States
cherish it as one of the few invincible pol
icies which have risen to the dignity Of
law. The assault upon Monroes famous
declaration of policy on the ground that
its genesis was English is unbecoming
so dignified and able journal as the
Post. Indeed we rather suspect that our
contemporary is really poking fun when
it uses the sentence we quote above.

SENTIMENTAL AND PRACTICAL
REFORM.

A Nation Reform Convention was held
at Pittsburg last week. We have heard
little of it in the dispatches. but will
assume that its purposes are irreproacha-
BILE and intended to bring about puri flea
tion of American politics and the like.
All of which is well enough.
But most of these reformers who oper-
ate by resolution, are themselves to
blame for much of which we have cause
to complain in political methods. That
is to say, they with vast body of other
people, leave the business Of political
management to the very elements they
assume to sbhor. They remain away
from the primary, and the caucus, and
the convention persistently, until the po-
litical methods become too raw; then
there is sudden squirt of protest, hasty
administration of rebuke, a brief ex-
change of ms for outs, and then lapse
again into the old error of non-manifesta-
ton of interest and non-activity, until
the system again becomes too rank to be
put up with.
The root and trunk and branch of all
reform of political management is in the
activity of the average citizen within the
realm of duty. The conscientious citizen
will not remain idle in the political field.
he will be active in the beginning of
political activity-in the caucus. The
power he has to administer, rebuke and
to overturn, he will exercise to prevent,
by himself taking charge.
Hon. L. S. Coffin of Iowa read the re-
form convention sharp lesson when he
told it that the very good, the very clean,
the purity, purity people. are themselves
to blame largely:
We ale little too good, little too clean
we are q little too busy to go TO the primaries,
where the initial work begins. Then when
the political tricksters have done all the havoc
they can, we come into these con ventions and
cry out against the evils. Ought we not TO go
down TO the root of the trouble? If the eau
Gus is held in the saloon, If In the dive, much
as we dislike to do it, it Is our place to go in TO
meet our enemy. Let US reform ourselves be-
fore we ask the people to reform.
There is nothing to be added to or taken
from that trenchant statement of un-
adulterated truth. 1t is crystallized wis
dom; It is blow from the front we'll
planted and just where needed. The man
who fails in his political duty-doing is
estopped from complaining. The Chicago
Inter- Ocean puts the subject into nut
shell of practical truth in these words:
Unquestionably there now is a strong drift
of sentiment toward publication of county
and municipal politics, but publication will
not come by drift OF sentiment: pure politics
viii come through practical politics, through
eaucuses OF decent men bent on submitting
decent delegates 10 the approval of the voter.

A WRITER in the american JoarAal of
Politics argues that one of the most pro-
missing signs of the times, indicating Ma
tional strength and resistless vitality in
the American system. is the remarkable
growth of independence of thought and
action in questions affecting the public
interest, or the fitness of candidates for
public office. 1t is sound conclusion;
the liberties of the people are safe when
the people themselves do political duty
independent OF the direction of political
whip-crackers and vote-drivers. The
cause for this increasing Hberality of
thought and action in matters political is
found in the growing realization that
political party is but an association of
men for carrying into effect principles
held in common by them, and that there
is no obligation upon any man to uphold
3 party, or labor in its interests, when its
declarations and aims are opposed to his
judgment. That is to say, the tradition
has departed from among men that they
are bound in good conscience to vote with
party simply because it is the organiza-
ton with which they have in the past
affiliated. But the benefits of party or
ganization are not to be decried. Associ-
ated effort in all walks is the conservator
OF strength and a means of education.
But all such effort must command sup
port because of the soundness of the

The San Francisco Nea0S Letter, gen.
orally so level-headed and cool as to
awaken admiration. goes off at tangent
regarding the Russian convicts in San
Francisco. 1t insists that it would be the
refinement of cruelty to return these
men under the extradition treaty, be-
cause we cannot afford to recognize politi-
cal offenses. It inveighs bitterly against
the treaty, and condemns the United
States Senate for approving it. The Ne,Vs
Letter is all wrong in this matter. If it
will refer to the treaty it will find that
there is an explicit and clearly-worded
provision that under no circumstances
whatever will the United States return
political prisoners, or recognize offenses
held by US to be of political character.
If the Nea0S Letter will inquire further it
will find that of the convicts in San Fran
cisco the major part are vulgar criminals,
counterfeiters, murderers and thieves.
Only three are of the character likely to
fall under the provisions of the exception
of the treaty. These three are convicts
because they circulated anarchistic liter
ature, and sought to poison the minds of
the people by inculcating the doctrines of
terror by dynamite missionary work.

The Heroic Hen.

A friend has lately told me the follow
ing story: In the western part of Massa-
chusetts man had fine stock farm; that
is, farm for raising COWS and horses.
But few weeks ago a fire broke out in
the barn, and burned not only the build
ing and the hay, but most of the animals
also. After the fire the owner walked
over the ruins. 1t was sad sight to see
the charred bodies of his fine Jersey COWS
and his high-spirited horses, to say moth
ing of the money lost with them. But at
the end of the barn he saw sight which
touched him more than all the rest.
There sat an old black hen. He wondered
that she did not move her head to look at
him as he came near her, but he thought
she must be asleep. He poked her with
his cane. and to his surprise the wing
which he touched fell to ashes. Then he
knew that she had been burned to death.
But out from under her came faint little
peep, and pushing her aside with his
cane the man found-what do you think
ten little live yellow chickens! The
poor hen had sacrificed her own life to
save them, and had held her place in the
fire as Casabanca held his on the burning
deck. That sight touched the man more
than everything else, and he has to own
that his eyes grew little more moist
than usual.-Churchnan.

IT is to the credit of all the people in the
lower San joaquin Valley that they gave
no support or countenance to the Evans
Sontag so-called dramatic company. In
some places they were refused halls in
which to show, and in others the people
warned them away-at least, they gave
them notice they would have no audi
ences, and induced them to cancel their
dates. There is better taste and more
sense of the proprieties in the interior
than in the metropolis. where the
miserable travesty on play was fnan-
cially successful.

A SAN FRANCISCO newspaper offered
to the women who advocate the reforma-
ton of the sensational press that they
take charge of one days issue of that
paper to run it precisely as they please,
putting in all they deem proper and ex-
cluding all that they hold to be immoral
or in any way unclean. The women have
declined to accept the offer, and very
properly. The experiment would have
been of no value whatever, unless the
women were practiced newspaper people
of long experience. 1t cannot be held to
be a fair proposition, any more than
would be an offer by an engineer to per-
nit one unfamiliar with the management
of his engine to run it a whole day. The
offer of the newspaper proprietors ought
to have been replied to by the women
with sharp rebuke and exposure of it's
seeming fairness, for it possessed not a
single element of fair play. If the pro-
prietors had said to the women, "Take
the paper for month, select and control
the force of the paper and take power to
instruct the agencies at the fountain head
of news" there would have been more of
fairness in the proposition.
