DEWEY ON DANGEROUS GROUND

The Dalles Times -Mountaineer.
Americans generally regret to know
that Admiral George Dewey has sig
niied his willingness TO become a can
didate for president. When he return
ed to America a few months since he
was the idol Of the Nation. No other
man ever so completely won the
hearts Of the people as did the hero
Of Manila Had presidential cleo
ton come on six months ago, Dewey
could have been elected without a
platform, but because of recent events,
ne could not now be elected were he
running on an ideal platform. He is
acknowledged to be the greatest mill
tary genius Of the age, but his train
ing and education have untitled him
for a statesman. He is one who is
eminently qualified to conduct naval
engagement, but he would be failure
as the head Of the executive depart
ment Of nation. In one respect Dew
ey is too big a man to wallow in the
trough Of politics, for he would en-
deavOr to treat all men alike, and deal
justly with all, hence he would fall an
easy victim to scheming politicians and
tricksters. Grant was great man
as a soldier. but failure as a states
man. Dewey would prove his counter
part. man who has attained the
fame which Dewey has, has served his
country well and faithfully, and It
would be stepping down rather than
upward were he to accept the nomina-
tion for president from any party. His
name and fame has been made, he has
reached the zenith Of an ordinary
mans ambition, and to aspire to any
thing else would lower him In the esti-
nation Of the people. Dewey as the
hero Of Manila will always hold a
warm place in the hearts of the people,
but as politician he would lose much
OF his prestige.

ures that have been made, There Is
no doubt that he should have bestirred
himself rs he has not done and that
he winked at practices which involved
the whole civil service OF the city
In what amounted TO a great criminal
conspiracy.
The revelations give us Tammany
over again, always the same always
low, mean and dishonest, always thriv-
ing at the expense OF the public and
on the wages OF vice. II anyone wants
to know what spoils politics is, in its
perfection. there is the supreme exam
pie. and It is the example to which
every political community would come
IL ignorance and extreme partisanship
bound 1t to the unvarying support OF
one party machine.
II is only necessary to refer to Phil
adelphia to show how similar results
may be achieved under another party
name. but Tammany works upon
larger scale and is, indeed, the greatest
Doodle organization in the world. Its
discipllnes, its rewards, its promises
and its ambition are all directed to
the one purpose OF making public Of
fee Tammany snap. No one who is
trained in its school can ever have
a higher conception Of politics, take
a disinterested pride in public I'M
or realize that there Is
such thing as principle in the con-
duct of public affairs, The rotten sys-
tenn taints all who come in familiar
contact with 1t and makes a good ad-
impossible.
The New York police will go on en-
dives and gambling places.
for a price just so long as New York
has Tammany government or any
machine government equally powerful
I another should spring up. For this
here Is no remedy except a merit law
conceived and honestly ap-
,lied.

ENGLISH JOURNALISTIC METH
DDS.

In the new and changing conditions
Of English Journalism. the loss Of Ar
chibaid Forbes would not be seriously
felt. even IL he had been recently en-
gagged in active newspaper work. All
that is Of value in the London journals
OF today is American in tone and meth
Cd. The newspapers that have imi-
tated the advanced American school
have grown in circulation and in
fiuence. Those that have not. have
gone to seed or into the hands Of re-
ceiyers. The Daily Mail has shaken
up the dry bones in Fleet street. The
Daily Telegraph, that apolcgized for
an interview" in 1876. is now strug-
Cling in a helpless way to secure an
interview with some distinguished
parsonage every day.
The Daily News, which has never
done anything that could be called
"enterprising' since the days of Mac
Gahan and Forbes in 1871. is trailing
along at the end OF the procession led
by the Daily Mail. Morning Chronicle
and Standard. The Times is no longer
the 'Thunderer." 1t relapsed into alb
solute responsibility and desuetude
after the Parnell trial. Circulation it
never had. and that exposure Of utter
incompetence disposed Of its influence.
The death of Forbes in London
few days ago calls attention to the
new conditions of the newspaper busi-
ness in the British capital. Our war
with Spain demonstrated again the
value Of special correspondents,
though the New York Herald had dog
matically predicted a new era in which
the telegraph would have completely
anticipated any special" before he
could hope to reach the news center
In South Africa there are today about
fifty correspondents. many Of them
Americans. upon whom the civilized
world depends for details of the con-
fiict as it progresses. They endure all
the privations of the soldier in the
the field, share his dangers on the
firing line and often stand chief mour-
ner at the grave.

dering strikes and lockouts, looking to
their own advantage; that they are
not governed by the constitution OF
their organizations, but by unwritten
laws; that It is TO their interest to stir
up trouble. which gives them an op-
portunity to hold out their hands both
ways for private gain; lastly, that they
are nothing more than pack OF hun
CRY machine politicians, inimical to the
welfare OF the real workingman. The
trades represented by the more intiu-
entail business agents include the
brieklayers and stonemasons. carpen.
ters and joiners. painters, carpen-
iron workers, ornamental iron work.
ers, roofers. plasterers, fathers, sheet
metal workers. marble cutters. gas
filters, steamhtters. plumbers, hod
carriers and building laborers. That is
one side OF the story. The business
agents themselves have another side,
which is presented. There are un-
questiOnably great many grievances
which an honest and honorable bust
ness agent can adjust to the advan-
tage Of his workmen.
Another fact which may be expected
as true is that at the present time a
well-delned movement is organizing
among employers of labor throughout
the country to invent some effective
means Of entirely eliminating the walk
ing delegate from the labor prob
lem.

WALKING DELEGATES" /"

erto unknown. Conditions Of unrest
growing out Of labor troubles have
brought the walking delegate under q
scarchlight. People want to know
more about him. The employers OF Ia
Dor. the boss building contractors and
the investors Of capital are today
studying the walking delegate under
glass. During the last week the sub
committee Of the United States in
dustrial commission has had me walk
ing delegate upon the inquisitorial
rack, but to what good end no man
may say.
1t must be conceded that this i'm
portant representative Of organized la
Dor may be looked at from different
points Of view. The object here has
been to present him under prismatic
lights, as different and widely con-
fiicting minds see him and as he sees
himself An effort has been made to
find out something about his origin,
growth and limitations; what his
functions are and how he uses them;
whether plenary power has ever been
delegated to him, and if so, why;
whether he is in the habit of abusing
such power by ordering arbitrary
strikes and lockouts and causing trou
blous upheayals in the Industrial
world.
The walking delegate is an evolution.
He is descended from the man who in
the earliest attempts to gather work.
men into unions was chosen to do the
clerical work involved, to collect dues
and statistics. and enact generally the
prosaic role Of secretary. soemtimes
h2 was called on to visit sick breth-
rem. Nearly always It was an import
ant part of his work to solicit new
members. His pay, If anything, was
hardly commensurate with his duties
and he was not much sought after by
political aspirants. He had no execu-
tive power whatever.
Time has changed things. The move
ment toward concentration, both in
the ranks of labor and among the
employers Of labor, has brought the
walking delegate to a position Of great
er responsibility. He is today the gen
eral business agent of the union which
he serves, chosen from the ranks of
the craft he represents, and

in him which was not dreamed Of in
former years. In the larger crafts,
like the carpenters, the bricklayers
and stonemasons, the nod carriers, the
plumbers, etc, his duties are so man
ifold that he often requires many dep
uties or assistants.
One Of the leading architects in Chi
cagc said the other day that about
fifteen Of the board Of walking dele
gates composed Of some forty or fifty,
held the industrial welfare Of Chicago
in their hands. In their limited sphere,
he declared, their power is more abso-
Lutte than is that Of the Car Of Rus
sia. He said that they were stronger
than the presidents Of their respective
unions; that they are arbitrary in or
