A. KOSH, slot machine man, has
learned to his sorrow that bribery,
while it may do in Chicago, is not a
safe policy in this city. His attempt to
buy our District Attorney, A. E. Buck
master, met not only with defeat but
with quick and vigorous reaction. The
position of district attorney in this dis
trict is not so lucrative but that the
offer made Mr.. Buckmaster must be
regarded as temptationsof consider
able proportions. To some men il
might have resulted disastrously, but
Keposha may we'll feel a pride in the
fact that Mr.. Buckmaster looked upon
the offer only as a means of placing
punishment where it belonged. The
man has been indicted on a charge OF
bribery.
From the standpoint of a strict ethl-
cal code Mr.. Buckmaster's act would
not be accounted of any exceptional
merit, for it would be nothing more
than duty, but in this day of money
grabbing and loose morals, when honor
is too often sacrificed to selfish pur-
poses the refusal of bride certainly
entities one to the hearty respect and
applause of the community.

AFTER taking up arms il Mr..
Schurz' behalf and denouncing Mr..
Grosvenor's speech as silly, NAL cious
and empty, it was cruel in the Milwau-
kee Sentinel to calmly class the
respected Schurz among the dead men
who have been the victims of Mr..
Grosvenor's abuse. There is no gain
saying that Mr.. Schurz has been dead
politically a number of years, but he
could not be blamed for resenting even
an insinuation to that effect. The
world knows that the last flicker of his
political hopes was snuffed out when
he essayed to lead a revolt against
Secretary Blaine. But to throw the
fact in his face right after an attempt
in his defense was the most unkindest
cut of all. The Sentiners effusion was
evidently not because it loves. Schurz
more but Grosvenor less. ~

The Chinese Question.

THE situation in the Orient is the
topic which is at present absorbing
public attention. Like most other
subjects OF the kind, it will probably
seem of overwhelming importance for a
short time and then things will again
subside into Il safe if not their normal
condition for a number of years. No
doubt the recent demonstrations and
acquisition ,of territory made by Ger
many and Russia mark the beginning
of the end of the Yellow Empire; but
however rapid the disintegration may
be, when once we'll under way such
revolutions are not accomplished in.
months; nor is the moment when act
ual Acknowledgement is possible reached
at single bound. That result must
be approached very gradually. Pre-
paratory steps precede the main event,
which may continue through decades,
little by little moulding circumstances
and conditions into a feasible oppor-
tunity. The scale of power is SO deli
cately balanced that considerable
diplomatic sparring must be done be-
fore any definite result can be reached.
China will undoubtedly be cut to
pieces, but the spoils must be so carefully
divided that honors will be even
Until the powers see their way clear TO
a just settlement among themselves,
frequent delays must occur which may
indefinitely postpone the inevitable
destiny of China.
In the meanwhile what of the United
States? She has little or no reason for
anxiety. The only interests represent
ed by Uncle Sam are of commercial
nature. These are at present protected
by treaty. Should China become tue
prey Of Germany or Russia or both
these treaties would be void and the
rights and privileges of the United
States placed in jeopardy. This, how

Our interests in this instance are coin
cident with those of Great Britain and
are thus we'll provided against any
likelihood of Infringement. England,
owing to her present situation, is much
more deeply interested in the outcome
than we can possibly be, but wherever
Britannia rules such conditions are
upheld as govern our present CONNER
cial relations with China. She has
virtually become the champion of the
yellow empire and in so doing has so
| ingratiated herself into the good will of
her namesake John, that she practically
holds the key to the situation. Conse-
quently, while the fate of China is
pending the United States has nothing
to fear and when the occasion for final
action arrives the chances for pre-
dominant English influence are so great
as to practically assure us against loss.

r MARK HANNA had The majority in
the voting 1of the two houses of the
Ohio legislature Tuesday. All things
dre possible, however, and not the
least so is a change in the Ohio legis-
Iature during brief interval of twenty
four hours. That state has always
been more or less of an uncertain
quantity, and bears marked likeness
to the tickle Roman mob led captive by
the original Mark. But barr ing
accidents which are not extremely
likely, Hanna will be cleo ted today by
the-two houses in joint session.
The result is gratifying to all VIII G

VICE PRESIDENT HOBART is at last
enjoying the comparatively novel sem
sation, for one in his position, of being
before the public. Today his name
appeared in the head lines of metro
politan papers. The cause of his pres
ent publicity is the result of his con-
troYersy on precedence carried on with
the English ambassador, Sir Jalian
Pauncefote, in which Mr.. Hobart came
out winner.
We imagine the vice president is not
the kind of man who attaches much
significance to3notoriety of this sort
although, considering the long duration
of the dispute and the fact that at last
his own country decided against Paunr
cefote, it is to the credit Of Mr.. Hobart
that he bested the Englishman.

ONE Of the greatest needs of Kenosha
is more female help. The local factories
provide plenty of work for girls between
the ages of 15 and Is and there are un-
doubtedly many in the city who would
be glad of an opportunity of earning a
livelihood, but for some reason the
manufacturers remain without the de-
sired help and the girls go unemployed.
Probably there is occupation for nearly
100 girls throughout the various indus
tries of the city, positions in which
good wages can be earned without Sc
we're labor. Employees cannot canvass
the town picking up here. and there
girls of the proper age who are looking
for work. Their time is too well filled
to permit of that. But they, or those
responsible, can be seen at headquarters
at any time they are sought for by ap-
plicants. In another column of this
issue there is an advertisement calling
for thirty girls. This is an opportunity
of which the unemployed should avail
themselves.

Senatorial Problem.

THE senatorial problem is already
attracting considerable attention
among the editors Of Wisconsin. The
morning Sentinel published a number
of editorial comments on the question
from the press of the state, in which
the prevailing sentiment seems to %
doubt. 1t is too early for the discus
sion to take any definite form. Fhe
list of possible candidates is unusually
large. 1t must, of course, be cut down
materially before the fight begins.
The cleaning out process is now going
on. Some of those whose names have
been mentioned will undoubtedly re-
fuse to run, others will probably die a
natural death. The most promising
names among those suggested are
Henry c.. Payne, of Milwaukee; }. h.
Stout, of Menominee and Ex-senator
Sawyer, of Oshkosh. Robert NJ. La
Toilette has been itching after sena-
torial honors for some time, and will
not let the plum go without a struggle.
The name of j. V. Quarles is frequent
ly mentioned, but usually with the
apprehension that be will not accept
the nomination. 1t is significant,
however, that whenever the name of
j. Y. Quarles is quoted it is with un-
stlnted commentator of his ability
and qualifications for the position of
United States Senator. Should Mr..
Ouarles manifest his willingness to
enter the contest there is not the
slightest doubt that he would be one of
the strongest candidates. He already
has an immense backing. He is we'll
known throughout the state, and high
ly esteemed wherever his name is
spoken. Should he take up his own
cause, though a practical stranger in
the field of political aspirants, his
chances for success would be aug
rnented.
The same doubt is visible in the case
of Sawyer, as in that of Quarles. If
the veteran consents to once more
enter public life his past service would
be almost sufficient to elect him again.
However, his advanced age, whatever
his mental energy at present, must be
an argument with him as we'll as with
the public, whom he would serve.
Senator Sawyer has had experience
enough to know that the responsible
tiles of the position are trying and
heavy, and will undoubtedly give the
matter of his denomination very serious
consideration before binding himself to
another term of hard service. Henry
C. Payne, of Milwaukee, is an able man
and would make a run, but there are
certain serious obstacles to his success.
But there is yet ample time to dis
cuss these matters. 1t is still possible
that the republicans will not be called
upon to elect a senator. Until that
matter is finally settled the senatorial
question, can be submitted to quiet,
retired deliberation.
