The city of Indianapolis should have for
mayor a man of strong personality, of
original and progressive ideas, of strong
and honest convictions regarding every pub
lie question, and in full sympathy with mu-
nicipal reform. The largest inland city in the
United States. with the most up-to-date
charter and almost unlimited possibilities
OF future development on commercial lines
should have a mayor who is equal TO these
opportunities. The warmest partisan ad-
mirers of Mr.. Taggart cannot claim that he
Is such a mar or such a mayor. The really
intelligent and discriminating persons
among his supporters must admit that in
every essential respect he falls far below
the standard of qualifications above indi-

him-that he is a clever fellow, a genial
gentleman, a shrewd politician, a good pipe
layer and wire puller, a skillful
manipulation of men and machines. a
good mixer and political manager,
and more of the same ort-the fact
remains that he does not begin to

he is a time-serving and self-serving poll

philadelphia Inquirer.
The statement of the exports and i'm
August last is an exhibit of the most graft
flying and impressive characer. August is
not ordinarily rechoned a good business
one Of the dullest months'o of the year and
1t seldom fails TO justify its reputation. Yet
this year the August record, as exemplifed
In the report of the Bureau Of Statistics,
shows that last month the commercial ac-
tivity of the country was not only main
tanned, but actually increased. 1t was in
creased all along the line. There was. first,
an increase in the volume of the Imports.
The aggregate of these amounted TO $6S. u.s.
l0l, which is 10 per cent. In excess OF the
July figures. This in every way is a salts
American public Is sufficiently prosperous
to be able to afford the luxuries which form
the mass of our foreign importations. and
Ii means a substantial addition to the ma
tional income. But the figures which reflect
the outward movement of commodities are
even more encouraging and significant.
The doleful OF Our public at
fairs, the politicians and others who find
their profit in the calamitous, and whose
occupation would be gone il the country
announcing that the good times now with
US wouldn't last long. and especially that
the preponderance Of exports. which has
been so noteworthy a feature Of our for
eign trade during the past two years, was
due to a combination of exceptional circum-
stances and was not likely TO continue. To
the CONFUSION Oh tneSe pTOpnetS, however,
1t keeps right on and shows a tendency
rather to increase than to disappear. Just
look at the August figures. They tell us
that the exports during that month
amounted to the enormous. the unprece-
denied total of 800, 64S. 436. This beats the
August record by twenty million dollars,
and, while this is good, it is not the best:
What is even better, an examination Of
the details which compose this aggregate
will disclose. 1t will be found from that
examination that while the exports of food
CtnfS nxOan6o6 fhnSn IF nthoY lO1ICf thu
exports of other products, mostly manufac-
tured, surpassed every record. They
amounted to $4s, 957, 6O3. This exceeds by over
ten millions the record for any other
August and is greater than that of any
other month of any other year. 1t looks as
though our export trade in manufactured
articles had come TO stay, Notwithstanding
the predictions on the nfree-trade Democrats
and mugwumps, who used to assure us with
so much emphasis and JUNCTION that the
thing simply couldn't be done so long as the
principle of protection was maintained. 1t
is in order for them to elucidate the failure
of their fine theories to work. 1t will need
all their characteristic ingenuity.

Of the affairs of the city. since most In
telligent people believe that the pay roll
of the street gang has been doubled the
past week compared with a year ago be-
cause Mr.. Taggart is a candidate for mayor.
The official who attempts TO explain this
increase on any other theory will be laughed
at for his pains. The $3.7s5.59 expended for
the yme OF the street gang over the
payment of the corresponding weeks of 1898
is $3.7S6.59 Of money used to purchase votes,
just as much as If it had been taken from
the party fund. If the same men put I'm
seven weeks ago were continued until cleo
tion day the number of voters bribed by IT
would be small. but when the force is
largely changed every two weeks it will be
seen that the city's contribution TO the brib-
cry fund reaches a considerable number of
voters during a campaign. Is this the new
and rigid economy which the mayor prom
tsed in his interview?
