INJUSTICE TO sCHLEY.

The President in nominating Samp-
son and Schley to be Rear Admirals
advances Sampson one point ahead CT
the man, who, up this time, ranked
Sampson two numbers. This glazing
injustice to the real hero Of the Santi-
ago battle will be the cause of a bitter
contest in the Senate over the confirm
alton of the promotions.
Why the President shows this par
TALLY to Sampson, whom he had al
ready advanced to command of the
fleet over Schley's head, is inexplic-
able.
The Washington Post says: al
though the placing of Admiral Samp-
son ahead of Admiral Schley will never
be approved by popular sentiment,
whatever efforts the ADMINISTRATION
may put forth to accomplish this, it
is thought that the nominations will
be confirmed by the Senate. Many
think this will not be without bitter
fight, in which the charges of particu-
lar favoritism for Admiral Sampson on
the part of the department will be
fully aired. A well known and very
efficient naval officer said last evening
that the matter would not be allowed
to rest as it now is, but that a contest
would be made to secure full justice
for Admiral Schley by placing him
ahead of Admiral Sampson on the ma
val list"
This would be but bare justice to
Schley, who is SIMPSONS superior in
every respect, and till now has ranked
him as an officer. The President makes
grave blunder in perpetrating
this injustice to the hero Of San
tiago.

THE HAWAIIAN EXPEDITION.

The Hawaiian commissioners got
away yesterday with their extensive
suite of secretaries. This suite VIII
cause even the Sandwich Islanders who
are looking for Sardanapalian outfit,
to open their eyes, 1t is composed not
only CT secretaries but secretaries sec
retaries and secretaries to the secre-
taries' secretaries. This is entirely an
American achievement and reflects
credit upon the ingenuity of the Ha-
waiian commissioners who designed it.
There are three commissioners, Nor
gan, Hit and Cullom, and to record
their deliberations, to guard their pri-
vacy and to provide for their wants
they will take in their train ten secre-
taries, one ergeant-at-arms and one
disbursing officer. No provision has
been made for military escort, but
that matter will doubtless be attended
to by Commissioner Dole, who patient
ly awaits the coming of his colleagues.
Mr.. Dole is presumably comfortably
situated in the matter of secretaries,
although we have no statistics on the
subject. If he is short, however, he
can borrow a few from the American
members.
Commissioner Hit has three secre-
taries. Commissioner Cullom goes
Hit one better with four, two of them
females Morgan is not so fortunate.
1t is said several secretaries he had
counted upon failed to respond and
he is forced for the time being TO rely
upon only one, although he may bor-
row a few from his colleagues in case
of a push. There are plenty to go
round
1t is a pleasant circumstance that all
the secretaries-witho one or two excep-
tions-happen to be relatives of one
or the other Of the commissioners. This
feature will add to the enjoyable ma
ture of the journey and to the aristo-
CIdtlC lUut euStllUlt VI the eApeulllOl.
1t must not be supposed we object
to this imposing array Of secretaries
The commissioners will have none too
many if they shall carefully attend to
all the subjects for deliberation.
They will have to consider the fact
that peonage-actual slavery-exists in
the Hawaiian islands. The thirteenth
amendment to the Constitution of the
United States provides that neither
slavery nor involuntary servitude shall
exist within the United States or any
place subject to their jurisdiction. The
secretaries may make notes upon that
important matter.
Then a portion of them can be turn
ed loose on the Chinese question. Au-
thorities will have to be consulted to
discover how the thousands of China
menVn the Hawaiian islands are to be
prevented from swarming over to our
PacifeN coast and bearing the Ameri-
can labor market. Hawaii now being
a patt of the United States there is no
wauto prevent such an Invasion unless
the commissioners devise one. This

tariff shields them from com
petition in the home market
while abroad they are forced to sell
on the free trade basis and pay tar
if to boot, which they do and make
profit How rsuch unjust profit they
thus are enabled to extort from the
defenseless American consumer may
be conjectured. Suffice it to say the
American consumer is robbed and
plundered by these tariff fostered
monopolies on every hand. Instead of
getting the benefits of living in the
very midst of these factories and in the
home market where their products
should be cheapest. the American con-
sumner is compelled to pay several
prices-a big tariff bonus-and he
can't help himself for the Chinese tar
if wall fences him in and compels him
to buy of the protected trusts and
monopolies. The only persons bene-
fitted by the arrangement besides the
trusts, who thus grow quickly rich,
are their foreign customers. These
trusts sell abroad at absolute free
trade prices because in foreign mar
kets they can't help themselves
abroad they are on the wrong side of
the tariff wall and have to pay the
duty, which they do and STILL MAKE
A PROFIT.
The American consumer is thus seen
to be fat thing for the tariff bred
trusts and monopolies and they milk
him to the full tariff limit. And this
bold robbery of American labOr-for
American labor is the American con-
sumer-is called protection to Amer
lean labor" And despite the protests
of American labor against this kind
of protection" Republican con-
crosses, bought and owned by the
trusts, continue to increase rather
than diminish the height Of the tariff
wall, as witness the Dingley tariff, the
last, but most exorbitant of all
1t will take a popular tidal wave to
sweep the trusts from their entrench
ments, or in other words to reverse
the Republican majority in Congress,
but we believe it can and will be &C.
complished at the coming elections.
Then the Democracy will be in good
shape to complete the victory by
electing two years later a Democratic
President, whose first duty will be to
the people and not the trusts.
The skies ahead are bright and Il
the Democracy will stand shoulder to
shoulder all along the line ultimate
victory will be theirs.

THE POLITICAL PHASE.

Pittsburg Dispatch
1t is very shrewdly surmised by
many people posted on New York poll
tics that besides the microscopic per-
sonal spite which led the head of the
War Department to dig out an extract
from two weeks old private letter OF
Colonel Roosevelt's, and publish it, to-
gether with the reprimand, plainly an
after thought, for what was not an
official act, there was politics behind
it. The secretary denies that assertion;
but the gap already demonstrated be-
tween that functionary and the COM
mon rules of honor leaves his personal
word without much weight.
What is certain is that Colonel
Roosevelt's conspicuous gallantry in
the Santiago campaign and his we'll
known integrity. energy and independ-
ence have caused his name to loom up
prominently among the possibilities for
governor of New York, where the need
for an able and incorruptible governor
has lately become monumental. This
is gall and NORWOOD for Plat. That
machine leader has not been left in a
strong enough position by the canal
exposures to be able to ALLEVIATE any
Republican elements But to have
governor elected in New York who
owns himself and hates jobbery would
be the ruin of Platt's machine. Alger
is hand in glove with Platt. They are
of the same caliber of politician, to
whom bravery in the field and signal
service to the country are mere trivial
tiles, and integrity and independence
positive offenses. Alger has stood by
Platt in the jobs which the latter has
forced on the administration, such as
the envelope contract to the notorious
Payn. The public can balance these
facts against Alger's denial and form
its own judgment as to the presence of
politics in the latter's act of petty
spite.
OF that manifestation, there is abso-
lutely no room for doubt. On the one
hand there is a courageous, patriotic
officer who has faced the dangers of
battle in the service of the country,
and is now facing the dangers of dis
ease, going to extreme lengths, il
common with his superior officers, to
plead for the health of the troops. On
the other hand we have a small poll
tician, sitting in the position which
should guard and defend the interests
of the soldiers, answering that plea by
picking out of a private letter a SELL
tence whose worst construction is that
Roosevelt is conceited about the men
who have followed him through the
fires of Quasima and San Juan, and
publishing it in the hope that it may
injure the man who has fought for his
country.
1t is not Ayers fault that he is ig-
norant of the primary principles of
honor and good faith toward a gallant
soldier. We can hardly blame him for
presenting such an extraordinary eX-
hibition of the peanut politician. But
there is public responsibility some
where that such motives of micro
scopic pettiness and incredible mean
ness can be in control of the govern
ment department whose sole purposes
should be to reward military patriot
ism and care for the welfare of the
army.
