M'KINIEYS OPINION OF OFFICE
SEEKE RS.

Upon the Inauguration of every new
upon the evils of office seeking and office
holding. Men who are in take up the
ely i'll hope of deterring the outs The
funny men make sport of the ofIice-seek-
ers as if they were guilty of something
disreputable. 1t is very true that men
who are engaged in profitable occupa-
tion are very foolish to exchange it for a
public office, even if the temporary re-
Enumeration is larger 1t is equally true
that nose men who seek Office do so be-
cause they wish to increase their income.
Men will seek public Office as long as
public officers receive more pay and do
less work than men in private employ
ment. The truth is that as rule public
officers are paid too much for the work
they are required to do, and this furnishes
an incentive to many to seek Office. There
are exceptions to this rule, of course.
There are men, on the other hand,
who seek office because it carries with it
certain prominence and distinction, and
not for the emoluments. Col. Hay, the
new Ambassador to England is an ex-
ample of this class, as was Van Allen,
Runyon and others. Col. Hay married
a very rich wife, who is a social leader.
He would readily give million dollars
for the honor and social distinction that
the Ambassadorship gives his family.
1t may be that he did give that much in
TIC CAMPAIGN. He has never rendered
amy public service that entitled him to
the honor, beyond writing Little
Brooches and Jim Bludsoe." and a
long and not too interesting biography
of Lincoln, he has no claim to fame.
But he has just as much fitness and rep
utation as some men Cleveland appoint
ed to important positions. One party
cannot well criticize the other.
1t is pleasant to note that President
Mckinley, having been persistent and
successful office-seeker for many years,
does not forget the pit from which he
was digged He does not rail at men
who are as anxious to be postmasters,
consuls or revenue collectors as he was to
be President. He is credited with very
| apt and very expressed rebuke to a Wis
itor who sought to ingratiate himself

THE CRETAN INCIDENT.

SO many things seem to have been 60
times that men and women have appa-
rently shown little feeling touching the
action toward Greece of the combined
powers.
Yet it is, perhaps, not PERCEPTIONS
to say that the feeling of this country,
were it expressed, would reveal sense
of horror at what seems to the right
thinking American to be Il crime against
Christian civilization
While the cathedras of the continent
are chanting. and while even the peasant
of England feels the hcart-throb of his
national life to be in the Il am the resur-
rection." the hand of Greece is being
officially pierced even because it would
shield its own and Gods own against
lust and blood and druggcd paganism.
The cause. though not far to seek, is
after all. the most damnng element at
work That Christians should 20 down
before the children of the Harem, be-
causA. forsooth. ConstantinOple, the
Black sea, the Bosphorus form the naval
keypoint of Europe. Thus it comes to
pass that for thousand years the East
ern question has batf1cd the most adroit
statesmen of the powers. The prob
ground out of the hands of any strong
power Thus the ear of the Sultan
takes no note of threatenings. or of the
clash of arms. He knows Berlin trea-
ty will be coming later, and he will hold
in powerlessness what will not be trust
ed to the powerful arms of another.
The principle Of conquest, the greed
of territory, are part of every situation
in which is involved the Sultan and his
own Thus the demonstration for the
Armenans was but tangent effort. and
the issue now more acutely forced leaves
the Armenian Hypocrisy more apparent.
in that the very corruption and weak
ness of the power that commands the
Bosphorus is the earnest of safety to
those who are civilized and strong.
What TO do with Turkey is in brief the
Eastern question: that question is yet
unsolved. and until il be solved without
danger to the acquisitive ambitions of
the powers. Armenian women may shrek
UNDECIDED in the arms Of assaSsins and
Greeks in defence of the cross may meet
second cruciixion. and the refrain will
come from the combined powers: Our
safety lies in the status quo of the Sui
tan. ."
That he will be swept away is as nee
essary as that God will reign. The dread
cd moment is postponed. but this old
world will, doubtless, not much longer
be in the mood to tolerate the ultimatum
that even the peace and balance Of Eu-
rope must be paid for with the blood Of
the people of Christ.

Round 14.-Corbctt landed n left on

tered with that terrible right swing on
Corbett's neck and landed Corbett going
back for Il few moments Fitzsimmous
landed terrible left hand jab on Cor
BELTS stomach, and COrbett went to
his knees with II frightful look Of agony
on his face.
The blow that did the business was a
left hand blow over the heart. Jim stag
gered and Fitzsimmons struck him on the
jaw. Jim sank to his knees clnging to
the ropes His face was cOntortcd with
pain. and he could not breathe. He tried
in vain to rise. but each time sank back
in agony with his hand over hs heart.
Slowly the fatal seconds were counted,
and when he raised his hand at the
tenth second, Il roar went up from the
crowd. Bob stood overlooking his fallen
rival, waiting to administer the finish
ing blow if Jim got up, but his caution
was unnecessary. Jim's seconds rushed
into the ring and hustled him to his
corner. Corbett revived, and when he
learned he had lost the fight he became
frantic. He broke away from his sec
onds and rushed about hunting for FitZ-
summons, striking blindly right and left.
1t was n pitiful exhibition of impotent
rage. His seconds tried in vain to control
Elm, but he struck viciously at them as
well as at others. Finally they grabbed
nm by the arms and carried him by force
from the ring. This lasted at least five
minutes and the crowd broke into the
ring. They were thrown out by the
Sheriffs, but they came too fast and the
ring was damned. All this time Fitz-
simmons sat quietly in his corner await
ing the decision of the referee When
Silers voice could be heard above the
noise, awarding FitzSimmons the fight.
Julian grabbed his rcd-headed brother
in-law about the neck and together they
danced up and down in Il frantic manner.
They were crazy with joy. Mrs. Fitz-
simmons in her box close to the ring.
laughed and cried alternately, and tried
in vain to get through the crowd to EN-.
brace her husband. After a minute

crowd to his dressing rOon, and his

with the President by saying effusively,
as he was introduced:
II know you will be glad to see me,
Mr.. President, when l tell yOn I'm
not an office-seeker."
The President is said to have responded
quickly and rather sternly:
can office-seeker is none the less
welcome because he is one, and one
who is not, IS none the more welcome
because he is not"
This remark will be some consolation
to those who were depressed by the or
der that Democrats will have to be allow
ed to remain in office until their terms eX-
pire. 1t encourages them to believe that
the pie will be handed around little
later on.
