Mr.. Canadas bill, which makes the con-
viction of any officer for felony cause for
removal from Office, does not so far enough,
IL it is true, as is asserted. that township
trustees have no power to compel road
supervisors appointed by them to make the
returns required by law and cannot remove
them during the four years for which they
are appointed The officer who makes a sub
ordinate should have authority to remove
him for failure to discharge his duties.

PHILADELPHIA Record.

The suppression by law of private letter
boxes and repositories for mail matter, as
recommended by the federal codification
commission, has been urged upon Congress
year after year by the post office officials,
but no legislative action has ever been taken
pursuant to such recommendations. The
boycOtting of postmasters in rural sections,
the interchange of clandestine and immoral
correspondence in cities, and-as appears
from the history of the Adams murder case
in New York-the nefarious ends of law
breakers would be rendered vastly more
difficult should the proposed section be re-
tanned in the new code.

The Washington Post says, apparently on
good information, that unless the army re-
organization bill passes at this session of
Congress the President will call an extra
session. He certainly should and the call
ing of an extra session on that account will
he reflection on the intelligence and
Patriotism of this Congress. Instead Of quib-
lling over details Congress should recog-
liIze the situation as it exists and give the
President an army to deal with it. They
should not require hin to make bricks with
out straw

The country storekeeper has no lobby
here to look after his interests, but those
Hyho have the power should see to it that
the pharmacy bill does not deprive him or
any other dealer OF the right to sell pro-
prietary or patent medicines. The pending
bill may not deprive the general retailer of
abe right to sell patent medicines but there
are those who express doubt, and there
should be no doubt about it.

The perpetual study of newspapers"
says Andrew Lang, cannot fairly be called
reading" But the admission that the
newspapers command perpetual study shows
how large an intellectual want they FILL
The reading they offer may not cultivate
the same set OF faculties which is developed
by books, yet newspapers are as important
as textbooks in the estimation of some
school authorities. and even the advertise
ments nowadays have an intellectual slim
illus for many minds quite apart from the
trade bearing of such announcements.

anything but force Like the Indians they
attack in the night and expect to take the
enemy by surprise. They exaggerate their
own Drowess and underrate that of the
enemy. All these are Indian characteristics
and doubtless very familiar 10 General Otis,
who is old Indian fighter. There are
other regular army officers at Manila who
probably understand the Indian character
as well as General Otis does. and who there
fore know how to deal with the Filipinos
Directly bearing on this point is the state
ment of an old army officer at Washington,
published in the Journal of Wednesday. He
said:
The Philippine natives are like all half
savage people; they are governed in their
own aggression by nothing but fear of
being whipped by their enemy and they
cannot understand any forbearance on the
part OF an opponent, except on the theory
that ne Is afraid of them. We have had the
same thing for thirty years in our own In
dian wars. We lost more men and KILLED
more Indians in the West through the mild,
temporizing and supposedly humane policy
OF successive administrations than we ever
would have lost in a few sharp. sound
thraShings administered In successive allo-
pathic doses just to show the untutored
savage that we meant business and would
whip him first and treat him right after
wards 9 The case is inst the Same
to-day in the Philippines 1t is unfor-
tunate for them that the natives can't I'M
derstand humane policy on the part of
this government or that we intend to deal
honestly with them. Forbearance on our
part now simply means to them that we are
afraid of them, and the quicker we whip
them thoroughly and disabuse their minds
the sooner we can enter on era of peace
full reconstruction and reform.
This is a wise and humane view of the
case. We have as much right in the Phil
ippines now as the white men had in Amer
lea at the beginning, and better right to
subject the Filipinos to our rule than we
had to subject the Indians We are in the
Philippines by the right of conquest and
cession of the territory by an enemy fairly
vanquished in war. Assuming the treaty
to be in force as it practically is, the in
surgent Filipinos are rebelling against the
United States. We are there to offer them
liberty, stable government and home rule
and to start them in the path of modern
progress, and while we are rendering the
olive branch they attack us. They even
fired on a flag of truce a few days ago.
Having made war on the United States and
adopted Indian methods they should be
treated like indians and whipped into sub
mission. 1t is probable that an old Indian
fighter like General Otis will know what to
do and how to do it. Perhaps he has done
it already. Those old campaigners are not
apt to let the grass grow under their feet

so good a record as has +. j. Scholz, who
retired from the office of state treasurer
this week The time covered by his admin

period for Indiana. and the operations of
the state treasury have been large. In all
the work involved Mr.. Schoz has shown
himself prompt, careful and always accu-
rate to a penny. Indianapolis bankers agree
in regarding him as one of the best fnan-
ciers in the State, and the county treasur-
ers have been pleased with the fact that
their settlements were never delayed a
moment and their communications have
never VOTED day for reply. The simple
system of bookkeeping adopted by Mr.
Scholz has always displayed at a glance
the status of any of the numerous funds
in his custody. and the work of his office
has been as clean cut as that of the best
bank in the city.
