Craftsmanship and Horse Sense.

Governor-elect Roosevelt, of New
York, made a speech at the Forefath-
ers' day dinner of the New England So
ciety in Brooklyn; and, as might have
been expected, his remarks showed the
craftsmanship and common, horse sense
that have for so long marked his public
conduct. In the course of his remarks
Colonel Roosevelt said:
IF we are going to administer the
West Indian islands that we have ac-
quired and the Philippines in a way
that will be 4 credit to us and to our in
stitutions, we must have them admins
tered by men like General Wood. We
have got to make up our minds that we
can send only our best men there; that
we must then leave them as largely un-
hampered as may be: exact good re-
suits from them. but give them a large
liberty in the methods If reaching
those good results.
IF We treat these islands as the spoil
of the politician, we shall tread again
the path which Spain has trod before,
and we shall show ourselves infinitely
more blameworthy than Spain. for we
shall sin against the light seeing the
light.
Il am an expansionist, but I am not
blind to how heavy these responsible
ties are. And in closing | ask each of
you to remember that he can't shift the
blame on others if things go wrong. Let
each man here strive to make his
weight felt on the side of decency and
morality. Let him make it felt in sup
porting a policy which DEGREES that we
shall hold our own in the face of other
nations, but which DEGREES also that we
shall be just and that the peoples
whose administration we have taken
over shall have their condition made
better and not worse, by the fact that
they have come under our sway
The above sentiment so plainly and
sensibly spoken, sounds the key note of
the policy that should inaugurate the
rule of the United States in the new

man. not the politician, that is demand
ed, and the marvellous success that has
attended General Woods virile and
manly administration ought to make
this so manifest as to drive the political
worker and spokesman from the field. 1t
is Just as the colonel says, if the ISL
ands are to be regarded as merely so
much spoils for the politician, it will
simply be a repetition of Spanish eXpe-
rience, and no doubt lead to that char
acter of. colonial administration which
made the ~proconsular administrations
of the Roman empire synonymous with
bribery, robbery, corruption, violence
and rank injustice. General Henry is

ample in Puerto Rico, and if General
Otis will do the same in the Philip

make it hard for the professional poll

An Army Crisis.

There is one defect reported in the
consolidated army bill before congress
that leaves open a loop hole for PERM
cious patronage and which demands
considerate and careful legislation. And
that defect is the inadequate provision
for the increased number of officers
| that the enlarged army establishment
| will call for, if the proposed bill passes
| with the increase in official roster pro-
p~ortionate to the increase OF enlisted
men. That a discriminating exercise of
| good Judgment will be imperative is ev-
| ident from the unfortunate experiences
Of the late Spanish-American war.
There seems to be a disposition to leave
the appointment of a very large a
of these new offices to the president, n
of course there will be a tremendous
pressure brought to bear upon him to
appoint the connections and friends OF
prominent politicians. This is a duty
that ought not to be imposed upon the
president. The military academy at
West Point is not large enough to fur-
nish the required officers: therefore,
let the more prominent military schools
of the country, such as the n at Ches-
ter, Pa, the military institutions along
the Hudson, etc. be drawn upon, with
examinations throughout the army for
promotions from the ranks. There
should not he a single appointment
made to the new official roster without
presentation of evidences of fitness Tor
the position sought for. The men in the
ranks ought to have the first show, for
many promising young men who have
been unable to secure appointments TO
the United States Military Academy
have enlisted with the intention of be-
ING examined for commissions, and
have for several years studied faithful
~ and become capable to hold army
commissions. Unless a commission in
the army means qualification for the
position held, the army will lose it's
morale, it's esprit du corps will become
a relic of the past, and not only will the
enlisted men become demoralized
through knowing that their officers are
incompetent, but civilians of the de-
sired stamina will refuse to enter the
army service.

The attitude of the Republican party

The attitude of the Republican party
of New Mexico has always been con.
sistent OH the question of the admission
of the territory as a state. We favored
the admission of the territory when the
Democratic party was united in their
opposition against it. We still favor
it's admission, believing hat there is no
good and substantial reason for keeping
lis out of the Union as a state and be-
lieve that this can best be accomplished
by the election of a delegate to congress
who is in harmony with Republican
politics and principles.-Republican
Platform, New Mexico, 1898.
