The free lance. (Fredericksburg, Va.) 1885-1926, 1899-06-01

The Free Lance is gratified that 5000
are taken out of the civil service
methods by McKinley's recent order,
and that provision is made to take out
more. Mckinley has done one good
thing He has given "snivel servis"
o black eye. Among those yet pro-
tsoted are the disbursing officials OF the
departments at Washington, including
Mr.. r. B. Merchant, Of the p. O. d.
Mr.. M. has made a faithful and
acceptable officer. The view Of the
northern men as to this civil service
order is about expressed by The
New York World. which says
President Mckinley today issued an
order removing absolutely from the
operations Of the civil service law about
5 600 of the most important places
among the 65, 900 in the classified lists.
These places include hundreds that pay
good salaries and should be and are now
filed by men who are especially quail
fed for the duties. In addition to this
direct turning over as spoils all these
places for which examination is par
ticularly necessary and from which
examination excludes those whose
taIents are purely political, Mr.. Nc.

The foregoing, from the Waterman.
is headed Election Returns Forecast. -
The other is the vigorous but useless
kick of the Citizen over the result. 1t
seems the Republicans got one office as
a result Of the disseusions.
The foregoing article from the Watch
man and the one elsewhere from the
Waterman, looks like rubbing it on
the Citizen, but we await the Citizen s
vigorous reply. Possibly throughout
the State, over the senatorial question,
the Democrats may be split aud Repub-
licans may slip in. The Free Lance
confesses that it does not understand
the Citizen. Does that paper mean
that the count was not fair one;
But after all Sisson was MOI elected
in Lancaster. Brent is certified rs
elected by ten votes 1t seems the
Waterman is not a prophet and the
Citizen kicked too soon.

It is said that the President and his
advisers have reluctantly concluded that
force is the only possible way Of bringing
the Filipinos to terms, and that there Is
now small likelihood Of the peaceful
surrender of the insurgents as a result
of pending negotiations with the peace
commission, at any rate not before the
end of the rainy season. These consld-
erations have about satisfied the officers
of the administration that decided
and immediate reinforcement of Cen
eral Otis army is absolutely essential
to a successful prosecution Of the pres
ent policy. As there are no more regu-
lar troops available for service In the
Philippines without impairing the
strength of the military forces in Cuba,
Porto Rico and other places, the Presi-
dents only recourse, in case he decides
to increase the army in the Philippines,
is by call for volunteers.
Under the law he has authority to
recruit 80, 900 volunteers in case of ne
cessity, but the impression now pre-
walls at the War Department that he
will not now take full advantage OF his
discretion in that regard. In military
circles, where the matter has been un-
der serious discussion for several days
past. the opinion prevails that call for
volunteers is inevitable, but that the
President will conclude that 20, 900 ad-
ditional men will be sufficient for the
enforcement of the present policy OF the
government in the Philippines.

JouAusT, THE UNJUST,

3a If.Coloncl Jouaust, head OF the Drey-
fus court-martial at Renncs had mani
tested an inclination to hold the Wit
nesses for the prosecution down to cor
rect and proper testimony, there might
have been some justification for his e.
fort to prevent {; witness from referring
to facts which We're Of rather ancient
date. but which, nevertheless, had an
important bearing on the case under
trial. All fair-1nindcd people every
where hold that 1t is a poor lulc
which does not work both ways Now
that the enemies Of Dreyfu$ have been
allowed unlimited time and have been
encoura gcd 70 indulge in boundlass
abuse of the prisoner, his friends should
at least be given an opportunity II
bring out what facts are in favor OF
Dreyfus.
Whatever may be the outcome Of the
trial, the name Of Colonel Jouaust viii
ever stand as q synonym for injustice
ard partially. AS ho is an intelligent
man he must recognize that he is
throwing the tremendous weight OF
his influence agains,: Il man who has
already borne incalculablc hardsnirs
and punishment for the crimes Of
others who might be apprehcndad if
there We're any desire on the part Of
the authorities to 1ncte out justice to
those who deserve it.
u this unjust judge is a fair sample
Of the nation which he represents in
the remarkable proceedings at Renncs
i is not surprising that the days Of
the French Republic seem to be num-
hered. The government that will stand
for SUCH a shameless dcbauchery Of Il
judicial function has evidently outlived
its usefulness and should take its place
with the barbaric relics Of the dead
and forgotten past.
n ut is quite apparent from the action
Of the Democratic convention in VIII
siaTrsburg yesterday that the masses
are not yelling themselves hoarse in
their demand for Governor Tyler for
the United States Senate. AS a mat
ter OF fact, we are under the impress
sion that the Instructions adopted by
the body places one more vote claimed
by the Governors friends in the oppo-
site column.

SUPPORT THE NOMINEES.

Now that the Democratic convention
has assembled and nominated candi-
dates for the Senate and HoGsn Nr,n
this district, it only remains for the
Democrats OF this section to come to-
gether and work unitedly for the cleo
ton Of these nominees. While 1T is TO
be regretted that Newport News is not
represented on the ticket, there is no
reason why the party men of this city
should bite off their noses TO spite Their
faces. The thing to do is to give each
of the cIndidates such 1lattering vote
here that both will feel very friendly
toward tlc little city at the mouth of
the James. At the coming session of
the Legislature this city will need a
good deal Of attention. There is no rea-
son for believing that either OF thu
gentlemen nominated by the Will
Harrisburg convention viii fail TO meet
the just claims Of this section.
1T is unfortunate that the fight in
Warwick county has been carried 10
such lengths that the defeated faction
still retains some of the bitterness Of
the struggle even after {, majority Of
the members of the convention have
decided the matter in accordance with
the facts presented to the committee
ON credentials. In time, however, we
trust that all Of this feeling Will pass
away before the realization Of the fact
that the allegiance of every Democrat
in the district belongs to the candidates
who were chosen by the properly con-
stitutcu representatives of the party.
Tn democratic republic the voice Of !,
majority rules and the autocrat has no
place in the economy of such q nation,
The man who lays stress on the right
eousnesS of regularity While lie is sue
cessfu1 should not find sufficient rca-
son for flying the COOP in the mere
fact OF his defeat.

 SUMMARY FOR ENTIRE SCHOOL. Eprollmen, 42s Attendance. ~ ~..............-. -. 36E Cases tardtness. ......... ..... ~ The Bisbee school still eustains its record for rapid growth The gain in enrollment over the fret month of last year is 63, and the gain in attendance is 62. The tardy record shows marked decrease, and one room, that of Mrs. Dyer, shows not 6 single case of tardi- ness.
 The rooms are all we'll filled already. The wisdom of the trustees in securing two additional teachers and 100 new seats IS now seen. The work undertaken last year in writing and drawingsis continued in all the grammar grades. Vocal music is taught in the three upper gram mar rooms, and the pupils are taking it up with much interest and enthusiasm. The instruction in these branches cam no. be extended to the primary rooms under the present classification of the school. n... :. The majority of the class of 1899, who graduated from the grammar school last year, have returned for more advanced work, and all would be present but for difficulties over which they have no control. .,.. .... ,; Grade g includes the following pupils: |: John Carter, Mabel Goldwortny, Phoebe Grenfell, Addie Kindred. and Marcus Schwartz. .>.''
 The education of the street is the best preparation forthe'penitentiary. Cities establish ''truant schools" to which are committed persistent offeadsrs of this kind. Small towns can not aHord' such an expense: All citizens can at least lend the officers of the'law encourage ment in its proper enforcement to the end in this case, that "truants" shall be forced to attend school.
