AUSl RIAN REGULATION.

VIENNA-The District Governor of
Eyer, in Bohemia, has announced to
a committee which has been collecting
money for a statue OF Prince Bismarck.
that In view Of the law OF 1854 the
scheme must be abandoned. A decree
has therefore been issued to this effect.
The decree fully admits the great mer-
It's OF foreign statesmen. but declares
that to commemorate them in so mark
ed a manner In Austria would be an
unwarranted demonstration.

public have the right TO know the
truth about it, so that it may condemn
him. and thank Mr.. Damon for having
exposed his treachery.
The readers OF the Advertiser have
the right TO demand OF It information
about the conduct Of public men. OF
what use Is this journal II il avoids
giving them information about, or
throwing light on. the deeds of pub

which treats public questions from a
party standpoint. Its purpose is to
give its readers the truth, difficult as
ii is 10 obtain It. provided the public
have the right to ask for il.
The importance of the affair under
discussion, If true, is such, that if it
had involved President Mckinney
Cabinet, there would have been at
once a public explanation, or a change
in the Cabinet. II does not follow,
however, that similar results should

Probably there was mlsunder-
standing in the Cabinet regarding
Capt. Kings resignation. If there was,
It cannot be difficult to explain the
reason for It, and end the scene which
exhibits one member of 1t drawing an
indictment against another member.

that the men involved in this affair

good service should not be assailed

meals IN a fresh state, for use in the

that refrigeration preserves the meat,

II similar estimates are made OF the
remittances OF coin to Asia, and the
income OF coin from abroad, for some

THE LONDON TIMES Apron ~

An article rom the London Times.
which appears in another column,
must be plcasan, reading to Uncle
Sam. Even If he can lick all Gre
alton" he likes compliments, and APP
probation.
The Times attributes the great
change for the better in Cuba. to the
tact and administrative ability Of
single American official That journal
believes that II the Americans can
turn out sucn capable men In sufficient
numbers to manag" affairs In the Phil
ippines, they will do credit TO their
race
No one doubts our ability to furnish
all the capable men who may be re
quircd. in order to govern the Philip
pines in a just and intelligent manner.
The men educated at West Point and
Annapolis are sufficiently educated for
the purpose, and they are servants OF
the people. not dependent upon prim-
AIRY caucuscs for place. As their
means OF living are secured for life,
they are independent incorruptiblc
and usually Just men.
While the President has given the
| power to administer affairs in Cuba
! to such men, ana they have done credit
TO themselves, it Is evident that the
politicians do not agree with him.
| There are many thousands Of the
boys" throughout the land, who are
footloose, have abandoned or failed in
business, and must he taken care OF by
somebody. These boys are strictly
party men, and entertain the belief
that movements for the sake of hui
manity, including war, should include
some provision for their own needs
Even II they have proved to be poor
merchants, or lawyers. they feel abun-
dainty capable Of filling any Office.
The pressure Is already great upon
the President to make places in Cuba
for many OF these persons. The Presi.
dent may be convinced that the course
! he IL now taking in Cuba Is correct
but he must have the support of Con.
gress. Can he secure that support with
out giving places to the friends OF
! Congressman?
In the administration OF Indian at
! fairs no President has ever been ablG
to establish good administration among
the indians, because the boys" needed
the offices In order to live, and breathe
VIII the President he able to resist
the pressure upon him to provide
places In Cuba for the men out Of I
job? The boys" will insist that Will,
the theory of home rule in Cuba ma!
be attractive, and even just, It canno
be based on business principles. Tn,
President acknowledges, to some eX'
tent, the force OF the argument, but
he hopes the people will sustain him
in putting the best men In charge OF
Cuban affairs. No doubt the people
are proud OF Gen. Wood and other able
officers who are doing excellent ad.
ministrauve work. But the people in
some unaCCountable way are often in.
different on subjects which do not
touch their selfish interests. But II III,
people are on their mettle in exhibiting
to the world their power to rule col,
onIes, the boys" may be forced to
stand aside and let the most efficient
men be selected to govern the colonies
