Editor Stead Endorsed.

The means employed, and the manner
in which they are applied by Mr.. ". L.
Stead. of the Review of Reviews, to
solve the social problem, are the cause
of much comment from both the press
and the people. His outspoken straight
forward manner of handling the pet
theories of so-called refOrmerS has
brought down upon his head many
splenetic invectiyes. 1t has ever been
thus: and until the millennium appears
like a gorgeous sun rising upon the
horizon of an eastern sky, will the true
reformer be looked upon as one whom
the gods love and have consequently
made mad. 70 the alleged reformer
who travels a beaten and we'll worn
path. it is like partaking of the hemlock-
brew of ancient Greece to have his fol-
lies made known, and his pet theories
blasted. These refOrmerS, God save the
mark. are wont to have it understood
that their theories, and theirs alone,
will elevate mankind to its highest
sphere of perfection. Drunkards, Grim
inals. maniacs and idiots can only be
brought back into paths of rectltude
and reason. through the enforcement
of their doctrines. and when the utter
incompetency of their mouldy and
threadbare hobbies are shown to the
world, when it is unquestiOnably proved
that humanity is sinking lower and
lower, that drunkenness, crime, ana
madness increases each year under the
application of their theories, these men
of reform raise their hands in surprise
and Indignantly murmur: at is I'M

or pull down humanity" Aye, sc

Gambling.

AnyOne who has ever gambled,
whether at cards, dice, or at marbles,
can remember the personal degradation
he felt ON pocketlng his winnings for
the first time. Anything obtained with
out an equivalent return in money or
labor has a debaslng effect, and this
gambling vice has grown to such enor-
nous magnitude in our country that
thousands of young men are led to
moral ruin by it every year. Games
which combine the elements of chance
and skill have fascination which 1t IS
difficult for some natures to resist, and
thus many young men of respectable
parentage, who occupy positions Of trust
are corrupted and led to filch money
from their employers to indulge their
passion for gambling. This evil is
more prevalent than is generally sup
posed. 1t is by no means confined to
the gambling houses of large cities, to
pool selling at race tracks, or to betting
on the rise or fall of stocks on change.

which unfortunately it is not and never
can be SO long as liquor sellers and
gamblers hold the power which they
now do in politics-to enact and enforce
strong laws for the repression OF the
twin evils, gambling and liquor selling,
crime would be reduced to the mini
mum. Gambling, drunkenness, and
greater crimes will be rampant SO long
as the better element of society sit idle
and sigh over evils they make no effort
to abate; but if they would throw Off
their sluggishness and demand honesty
in state and municipal government in
other words, if they would see their
duty and have the courage to do it, the
youth of our land would be safe from

An Inexcusable Blunder.

Without entering into discussion
OF the merits of the Hawaiian question,
the one significant fact that stands
forth pre-eminent is, that an ineXcusa-
bic blunder was committed when the
appointment of the commissioner with
paramount powers was made without
the advice and consent of the Senate,
and as Talleyrand once said: that
blunder was worse than crime IN
diplomacy.
That portion of Article H. Section Ii.
of the Constitution prescribing the
duties of the executive in regard TO ap-
pOintments is as plain as the Engllsh
| language can make it. NOtWlthStan0-
ing its plainness we have had the hu.
initiating spectacle presented to us, OF
the highest dignitary, either ignoring
or ignorant of its limitations. 1t seems
incredible that the chief executive OF
the nation, man possessed OF legal
ability of the highest order, and a
familiarity with the intricate points OF
law and diplomatic uSuage, should not
have investigated the legal aspects OF
the case. If the question involved any
knOttv problem of law, there could and
would exist difference of opinion on
the matter, but such is not the case;
hence, the only conclusion that can be
arrived at is, that it was an error Of
Judgment; and if this supposition be
correct (?) it shows very bad manage.

the chief magistrate is always subject
to the criticism and hostility of host
of the opposing party zealots, be the
motives of the act ever so good. Aware
!, of these facts, as the president must
.. have been, the more inexcusable was
. the usurpation of the legal function.
