THE DIPLOMATIC SERVICE.

Secretary Hays recommendations of
Increased salaries and certain other
changes in the diplomatic service is
timely and important. 1t amounts TO
official recognition of the need of more
complicated and finished diplomatic
machinery to maintain the new status
abroad. To speak plainly. better
diplomatic and consular service has
simply been prevented. first by under
pay, and second by lack Of equal re-
sponsibllity and practical leadership
with the other great powers in the
management OF affairs abroad. The
large fact of responsibility has come.
and the underpny has to be brushed
aside like cobweb. II can hardly be
that the salary increases will be denied.
The recommendation that Congress
give authority FOR advancing consular
clerks to consular places after five
years satisfactory service is signifi-
emit. Tint would be, within certain
limits, the foundation of n graded SER
Vice In which merit would get Its re-
ward and the service attain It's proper
efficiency. The changes recommended
in regard to Interpreters and the neces-
sary knowledge OF foreign languages
are. one would think, so obviously ur-
gent that 1t is strange that they have
not been made long before.-New York

standing the failure OF the United
stntes TO go on silver basis. and not
wsthsfnndIng their own prophecies

could be no prosperity. this country

roth explained the prosperity by sny-
Ing that II wns due. not TO the tariff.
or the upbuIIdIng Of tho credit of the
government. but solely to the fact that
more money per capita is In circulation

administration. Mr.. shnfroth deserves
credit for finding out that under this

OF the currency has been increased.

ton TO discover this fact.

perity is here. but his explanation DIFF
fers from Mr.. shafroth's. He claims
that II fs due not only to the larger
volume Of money In circulation. but nj
30 to the lnrge crops raised by this
country. to the short crops abroad to
the tremendous development of our
Iron and steel industries. and finally to
the recent war. which caused go great
activity In the gun factories. that the
prosperity we now have Is to be cred
tied. These are wonderful admissions
TO come from man who voted against
the farir under which our Iron ana
steel Industries have developed 80 fast
who voted against the expenditure of
money TO carry on the war, and who
has told his constituents many times
that the Republican party seeks to con-

however. that little objection has been
made 30 this fenturc of the bill. even
by the opposition.
II has been alleged, by some OPP
ponenfs OF this measure, that Il gives
over the function OF issuing money to
the national banks. and retires the
grcenbaclss. II does no such thing. The
national banks Will issue very little, II
any. more currency than they do mt
present. The government retains the
money-issuIng function unimpnIred.
The proposal Of the famous '.Indian-
apolls conference" composed mainly
OF gold-stnndnrd Democrats, that the
currency OF the country be supplied by
the national banks. which should be
empowered to Issue bills on their as
sets, was emphaticaIly rejected by the
trainers OF this measure.
The debate In the Senate will take n
much longer time than that In the
House: and II is not improbable that
the bill may be amended In several
particulars; hut 1t seems likely that n
bill substantially Identical with that
which has Just passed the House will
become law at this session.

Porto nlcnn ao,sruman,.


Secretary OF War Root in what he
says of Porto Rican affairs In his re-
port, makes particularly judicious rec
concentrations. We find here REM
iniscence of the kind of Republican Mr..
Root was in his earlier action in New
York politics, and 1t marks his as n
broad-minded man In his present posi-
tion. He sketches out scheme of ter
ritorlal government In Porto Rico, say
Ing that ''it will be necessary that same
cardinal rule shall be adopted and rig
idly followed regarding appointment to
office there. And this Is his idea Of
what 1t shall be:
Wherever Porto Rican can be
found capable and willing to perform
official duties he should be selected,
and the ain should be to include in the
civil service OF the island no greater
number OF Americans from the United
States than are necessary for the in
Introduction OF the methods of admin
istration Sin which Americans have
been trained and Porto Ricnns have
not.
wherever II Is necessary to employ
Americans, except in the chief offices, n
system OF civil service examination
should DE provided, under which re-
quests from the governor of Porto Rico
for suitable persons to be appointed
may be filed
Here IL sufficiently sound assimila-
tion doctrine, md good orthodox civil
service views are advanced in addition.

RATES GOING UP.

Railroads Want n Chunk of Prosperity.
Chicago. Dec. 1S.-The Chronicle to-
day says:
One of the most radical and general
advances ever made In freight rates
will go into effect on all the railroads
east and west of Chicago January list.
Thousands of articles of every day con-
sumption will be affected and the in
crease will average 80 and 40 per cent.
the jump on many articles reaching so
per cent. The contemplated action has
aroused the shipping interests Of the
country.
The shippers say that II the carry
ing charges are increased to the ex-
tent announced by the railroads 1t will
have the effect of increasing retail
prices In every line of trade.
Sugar, soap. coffee, flour. coal and
farm implements are few of the ar
ticles to be affected. On these as well
an ON hundreds of other articles, the
increase will run from 20 to 40 per
cent. The rate on coal, for example,
west of Chicago. will be pushed up to
~ cents ton. Rates on cattle will be
advanced to % cents per 100 pounds,
hogs and sheep will go up from 25 to
30 cents and dressed meats to 40 cents
per 100 pounds. The tariff on hay will
be increased S11O per ton.
Chicago shippers are circulating petit
tions asking the railroads to defer the
advances until April LIST TO enable them
to catch up on their orders. Should the
railroads refuse, disastrous results to
manufacturers and wholesalers will
1t is claimed. be the consequence. Ship
pers In several jobbing centers talk OF
appealing to the judiciary.
Officers of the railroads declare that
the advances are made necessary by
the increased cost of everything they
are compelled to buy. from ties to en-
gires. They further aver that there is
no reason why the railroads should
continue quoting panic rates. while
merchants, manufacturers and others
are advancing prices.

THE BEBATE ON THE CURRENCY
BILL.

The so-called "Iiced rules" were
adopted by this Congress, and the first
application Of them was in making a
special order OF the new currency bill.
This is called by the Democratic papers
the application OF the ''gag law" BY
this they mean that only six whole
days md three evenings were given
for debate on the bill. Probably fifty
or sixty speeches were made. nnd the
Democrats had ample opportunity to
bring forward every possible objection

thousand times more sensitive than

although we have improved the re.

tive as the original one. we realize that
we have not yet begun to see the limit.
Murconl. in his brilliant experiments,

be sent over ninety miles. As our re.
ceiver Is several hundred times more
sensitive, 1t is clear that the messages
can be sent by our method very much
farther though just what the limit Il
would not say. 1t nt least should be
possible to send messages across the
