SALTSBURY'S SPEECH.

The speech of Lord Salisbury before
the House of Lords on the reassembling
of Parliament is marked by the same
lnoncommlttal tenor that is usually char
acteristic of his public utterances on
such occasions. 1t is therefore difficult
to form from it any safe conclusions on
many matters of English policy that the
world is just now greatly interested in.
So far as his lordship cared to speak
candor and good faith seemed to mark
his utterances, but he told the public
nothing it did not already know. That
England proposes to hold the SOudan,
either as a province of that Egyptian
territory to which it has long laid claim
through the rights of variells treaties, or
by the palmer and more recent right of
conquest, has been we'll known since the
promulgatiOn of the recent Anglo -Egyp-
tfan convention. The attitude of the
government has also been made plain
that the British policy in China is not,
at least at this time, one Of land grab
bing, but rather has for its object the
acquisition of commercial concessions
relations. His attitude on the cars
disarmament policy was, of course, no
surprise, inasmuch as England has re
garded it as impracticable from the be-
ginning.
In regard to France, his lordship pre-
serves n silence which, when taken in
connection with his declaration that
while not imminent causes Of war still
subsist may seem Il little ominous.
Irrespective of whether the progress
made in negotiations with France now
pending is favorable Or otherwise, his
position would preclude him from ad-
yerting to them on this occasion and
therefore too much significance should
not be attached to his ignoring the mat
ter altogether.
Altogether the speech may be con-
strued as a conservative presentation Of
facts already known to the public and
as diplomatic suppression of all other
information about matters that may
contain an element of danger in their
future solution.

TERMS OF COUNTY OFFICERS.

An effort is to be made through the
influence of the different state organi-
zntions of county officers to secure at
the hands of the legislature the enact
ment of a law making the terms of all
county offices uniformly four years.
Bills with this import have been pre-
pared and introduced and strong pres
sure will doubtless be brought to bear
in their behalf. The register of deeds
and clerk of the district court now hold
for four years, as do also the judges
or the district court. In order 10 put
the new schedule into effect it is pro-
posed to lengthen by two years the
terms of officers whose lncumbencies
would expire with this year, so that
the next election of county officers
should not take place until 1900.
To the proposition for four-year
terms for county officers perhaps no
lnsuperable objections will be urged.
The complaint has been that we have
too many and more especially TOO frc-
quent elections, and the general ten
dency is toward longer terms of office.
The valid objections to long official
terms are that they remove the officer
Just SO far from direct responsibility
to the people and raise the bars
against calling him to account for
misuse of power or neglect of duty.
so long as impeachment is the slow
ana cumbersome process it is, the ballot
box must remain the popular court at
which the Dublic servant will be tIipd
Another point that must be consid-
cred is the drift toward permanent
ofhcialism. Rotation in office Is a time
honored and healthy rule. With the
practice of reelection four-year term
means eight years for those who are
reelected and reduces by just one-half
the incentive for honorable aspirations
of other candidates. If the terms Of
county officers are to be made four
years, instead of two years it might
not be out of place to consider the ad-
visibility Of a prohibition of second
terms.
The most questionable part of the
pending proposal is that legislating
present officials into office for another
two years without additional creden-
tlals from the people. 1t Is safe rule
always to let the people say who their
responsible public officers shall be. The
lengthening or shortening of official
terms few months to adjust their an
rangement might be overlooked when
there is some compensating public gain,
but giving an official another two years

the uArroN IMPROVING

The dispatch from General otis an
nouncing that the situation at Manila is
rapidly improving Is cheering news,
though 1t is to be apprehended that the
American commander is somewhat too
confident in regard to the influence of
Agunaldo having been destroyed. The
fact that the Filipino leader asked for
a cessation of hostilities and confer
cnce does not necessarily imply That he
has lost influence with his people. 1t
may mean simply that he wants time
to recover from the disastrous results OF
the attack on the American forces
which was far more severe than he
probably anticipated. In his military
capacity General Otis was unqucstion-
ably right in paying no attention to the
request of AguinaldO, but IL is unfor-
tunate that our government is not repre-
scented at Manila by some one authorized
TO confer with the Filipino leaders ana
plainly make known to them the ill
tentlons of this government The sug-
gestion of Admiral Dewey some time
ago, that statesman should be sent to
promptly needed. \ commission has
been created to go to the islands, but it
may reach there too late to be of much
use.
1t Is not TO be doubted that the severe
lesson which the Filipinos have had has
convinced many of them that fighting
American soldiers is very different
matter from fighting Spanlards for
while the latter were not lacking cour
age, they were deficient in other quail
ties no less essential The American
troops combine discipline with valor and
fight with Il dash that is wellnigh ir
resistible. General Otis says their fight
ing qualities were n revelation to all
inhabitants ana it Is easy to understand
that it must have produced profound
impression upon the enemy.

ures. by her majesty's indian subjects In
England, by threats Of prosecution on their
return to India: i3) which takes away the
liberty OF the press that has been enjoyed in
India for over half century, and substitutes
a method OF repression, unworthy OF the
British government; D which empowers
magistrates in India, who are heads OF the
police to demand security for good behavior
from editors OF newspapers, to refuse such
security when offered, and to send the edi-
tors to jail with hard labor without trial for
any specific offCnse; 90 and lastly which is
based on suspicion and dIstrust against the
people and is thereby calculated TO ALLEVIATE
the people and weaken the foundations OF
the British empire in the east"
There is no such thing as liberty In
India. After over n century OF control
England has not carried II there, and the
present program favors repression and des-
potism. rather than freedom and self gov
crnmcnt. 1t does not follow, therefore, that
when a democratic country takes control or
an oriental population it will extend to them
democratic institutions.
Nor does 1t follow that democratic coun.
try will carry prosperity to an oriental pop
ulation. This terrible indictment OF Eng
lands work in India appears in Alfred Rus
sell Wallaces famous book on THE Won.
derful Century"
The condemnation of our system of rule
over tributary states is to be plainly seen in
plague and famine running riot in India
after more than a century of British rule
and nearly forty years OF the supreme power
OF English government. Neither plague nor
famine occurs today in well-governed com
munities. That the latter. at all events. is
almost chronic in India a country with an
industrious people and a fertile soil, Is the
direct result of governing in the interest of
the ruling classes, instead of making the
interests OF the governed the first and only
object -
