THe New ADMlNisT aArION.

We publish this week two editorials
presaging the course of the new admins
tration: the one rejecting a republican
and gold standard democratic opinion,
the other, though taken from the Boston
Traveller, that has for years been prom
inent republican paper, evidently reflects
the attitude of the new force in Ameri'
can politics that is rising in protest TO
the unequal if not unjust distribution of
wealth, which many believe present con-
ditions foster, threatening not only con-
tinued business depression, but also dis
astrous results, ultimately, to the demo-
cratic institutions of the country.
The Boston Advertiser, always and yet
a very prominent republican paper,
largely owned and controlled by Mr.,
Barrett, one of the most influential Massa-
chnsetts republican members of the
present and last congress, recently had a
long editorial. which has attracted much
attention over the country, insisting that
the republican party must see that all
that is Unjust and undesirable in our
financial matters. whether in the none
tary standard or in methods of business
must be remedied by the republican,
party, if that party expects to continue
in power.
This we believe to be the position of
all the advanced leaders in the republi-
can party, who are in touch with the
people; such men as Mr.. Dingley OF
Maine. Mr.. Grosvenor of Ohio, Senator
Chandler of New Hampshire and thOus'
ands of others; and such we believe is
unquestionably the opinion of the rank
and file of the republican voters in Yer
mont and New England.
That it is the feeling of the republicans
in New York is exemplifed by the
measures introduced into the New Iorl
legislature looking to the control or reg
ulation of trusts. The same Is illus
trated in the bills recently introduced
into the republican legislatures of Mime
sofa and Indiana locking to the limita
ton by taxation of the large city depart
ment stores.
In saying this we do not wish to b.
understood as endorsing any such limita
ton. The REGISTER as yet has no opin
ion on that subject. We are simply sug
gesting that such matters are beini
closely examined in the republica
party and by the repubica
party leaders in lthe different States i
the interest of the people, and with d.
termination that what is best for III
country AS a whole should be don,
This is the right spirit and all that
wanted; and the REGISTER most ce
taInly hopes, and so far as Mr.. McKi
leys personality may influence it, b
lieves that this will be the course al
object of the new administration.
We will only add that the who

THE SHIP ARMoR BUSINESS.

The SHIP ARMOR BUSINESS.
The REGISTER is exceedingly pleased
with the following unusually spirited
and manly editorial from the Rutland
Herald. 1t is in the usual tone of inde-
pendence of that paper, the views of
which are not always in accord with the
average settled public Vermont opinion,
but are always plain and outsposen,
In the present case the great business
capacity of Its proprietor, equally with
the independence, enters into the dis.
cussion. He sees at glance that the
true economy of the situation, as well as
protection against fraud and eXtortion,de-
mands that the government take the bull
by the horns and make its own plate. In
this position the Herald will undoubtedly
have the support of all its readers:
For battleship armor the government
has paid from $3.50 to $500 per ton. The
great cost of plant. the uncertainty of
orders and their limitations have formed
the chief arguments of the Bethlehem
and Carnegie companies in support of
these prices.
Within two years the Bethlehem COM
pany underbid all foreign competitors
for Russian contracts. The fact that
Harveyized nickel steel armor could be
supplied to Russia fO: $500 per ton or
less caused questioning. y senate com
mittee investigated the subject, and re-
ported that the cost of making the best
armor does not exceed $3.50 per ton. The
esult is that the naval bill passed by the
late congress fixed the limit to be paid
at $500 per ton. The department cannot
pay more than that. 1t has several bat
tleships in process Of construction and
will soon advertise for bids for armor
plate. VIII it get any? 1t is considered
certain none will be put in by the Car
negie or the Bethlehem companies.
If these companies refuse to furnish
armOr delay in the building of the shios
is certain. The armOr must be of Ameri-
can meterial and make. No other con-
Germs have the plants to make battleship
armor. Therefore, it is urged that the
new congress ought to modify the law
Of its predecessor at once. Delays will
be costly. The government will he
liable to the contractors for losses, as it
undertakes TO supply armor. The navy
needs the ships, and it is better 10 yield
a point than to block work.
This talk is all bosh. In the actual
presence of war all sorts of sacrifice,
may be necessary, but for this country
to ''knuckie" to a couple of manufacl ur-
ing concerns in time of peace in this way
is simply ridiculous. If it will not stand
for its rights in building ships under the
circumstances what does it want of such
things, anyway? If our government re-
fuses TO make any struggle against a
