1T ISN'T often the case that Il
member of the Cabinet gets more
money than he asks for, but that
has annually been the case with
Secretary Morton ever since he has
been ut the head of the agricultural
department. The bill passed last
week gives him nearly 100000 more
than asked for, and in excess of
of what he thinks is necessary to
run his department. On an esti-
nation of $23O,OOO for salaries he
gets $250,000, he asked for $4,000
for the laboratory and gets $4,000,
and so on in every appropriation
he asks for and it looks as though
Congress doesn't sympathize with
him, in his efforts to economize.

Uapan's Improved Position.

1t seems to us that one Of the
most creditable acts of the present
administrator at Washington has
been the negotiation of a new
treaty with Japan, based upon rec
ognition of the fact that Japan has
attained the position of a maturely
developed modern power. The
treaty provides that after few
years more Of the present system
of consular jurisdiction, the Japa-
nese courts shall have the same au.
thority to try cases which concern
an American In Japan that the
United States courts have to try
cases which concern Japanese cit
izen in this country. Furthermore,
Japan will be at liberty to arrange
her customs dues without being
bound by treaties which limit the
rates of duty. The treaty provides
for the extension of rights under the
patent laws of each country to the
citizens of the other. War is ter
rible thing, and its indirect effects
upon the life and charater of ma
tion are always In some respects
both deplorable and exceeding diff
ficult to outgrow. Nevertheless
this particular war would seem in
u great many ways to be a blessing
to Japan. So far as her outward
relations are affected, it has bro't
promptly from various powers a re-
spect and recognition which years
of ordinary diplomacy could not
have obtained. AS to the effect
upon the Japanese people them
selves, the war has so completely
demonstrated the superiority of the
modern and occidental methods
over the ancient and oriental way
that the reactionary party is prac-
tically wiped out Of existence. The

borrowed and only partially asslm.

THE Ohio Democracy this year
should make their campaign on
state and local issues. The rallying
cry should be lower state, city,
county and township taxation. The
platform should call for reform and
retrenchment from the governors
office down to that of road super
visor. Useless Offices should he
abolished, fees and salaries reduced
and the .sinecure clerical places
abolished. In the present juncture
of affairs the Ohio Democracy
should cut loose from all national
functions and make the fight on
matters of home rule in this state.

SLOWLY SINKING.

fact has been known for years to
TIE lighthouse keepers, and to 9TH
ers whose business make them
close observers Of photographic
phenomena, but during the past
three or four seasons it has been so
pronounced as to cause comment
even among laymen. On Long Is

ing New York Harbor in general,
AS well as at Boston and at Rye
Beach, N. H., the Invading surf an
nually carries away the outposls of
defense set up against it, even

further inland. On Coney Island,
Sandy Hook and Staten Island
whole settlements have been aban-
doned on account of the invasion Of
the waves. and where, NOT more
than 25 years ago, were streets and
houses there is now deep water and
oyster beds.
Along the coasts of Delaware
and Maryland the phenomena is
still plore noticeable, and the same
may be said of the Carolinas, Geor.
gia and Florida. Piers erected on
the shores of Delaware Bay In 1876
only 10 years ago-and which
had platforms at that time 6 to 8
feet above high-water mark, are
now entirely submerged. On the
Massachusetts coast, ON Long Is
land and at several places along
the coast of Maryland, the sites of
many old colonial homesteads are
now visible only at low tide. With
in the last three years the New
York Sun, commenting on the
gradual disappearance of Long Is

VARIOUS newspapers have been
making merry over the old legend
of the ground hog, or woodchuck,
which is supposed to come out of
his burrow on Feb.2: then, If he can
see his shadow, he goes back for an
other nap of six weeks. There is,
nevertheless, grain of sound phi

be essential to the truth of the le-

of the animal II warm period in
midwinter means a late spring. The
state of the weather may be as well
expressed-and perhaps quite as

LAWSON. sound Views.

Congressman Lawson OF the Eighth dis
trict favors the present sold standard II
we cannot have the kind OF bimetallism
that would keep the silver dollar on a
parity with the gold dollar. In other words
he is a sound money man.
one suggestion he makes in an interview
in the Atlanta Journal is that we have free
coinage OF both metals, but that neither
shall be made legal tender Let each stand
on its merits Do the silverites agree 10
that7 II not. VII not? The silverites pre-
tend to believe that II the minis were
opened TO silver the price Of silver would
advance until the market ratio would be
Is TO !. II they really believe that such
would be the result Of free coinage why
don't they say they viii accept free coin
age at l6 TO /. without the legal tender
quality being attached to either metal?
It is certain they will not accept that
proposition. because they are satisfied that
the silver dollar would have only about
half the value Of a gold dollar. Their aim
is 10 make silver the standard money. and
to compel people to accept 50 cents worth
Of coined silver'as dollar.
Congressman Lawson says the silver
standard would be against the interest of
the south. He is right about that. That
standard would be against the interest Of
the whole country. For instance, II we had
a debased silver currency, as We would
have il the silverites had their way. we
should have to paw in the currency we
would then have about twice as much for
sugar per pound as we now do. How would
the wage Garner like that? And sugar is
only one OF the necessaries Of life that
would be affected by a debased currency
1t would be next to impossible to get better
wages because employers would not be in
a position to pay them.
