WHERE THEY STAND.

Last week the wise politicians of the as
sembly thought it would be wrong to pay
any police officer whatever. This week
they decide that it is only wrong to pay
those whom the police board appointed.
However incompetent or corrupt a given
be, he not only has, according to them,
the right to stay indefinitely in his place.
especially IL his politics is right, but
he is entitled to his money on each sue
ceeding pay day; while the new APP
pointees, no matter how competent or
well fitted they may be for police duty,
must go hungry, If need be, until they
have changed their politics or sought
some other form of employment.
This is politIcsi 1t is a beautiful prod
uct. 1t is a reminder of the days, some
five or six years ago, when McCardy
started in to reform and retrench by re-
ducing the salaries Of the few remaining
Democratic officials by the aid of blank
forms of contract, the man who refused
to sign his blank forms being held up to
ridicule and future punishment. It full
fills all the anticipations of the G o b e.
1t represents the penalty which the city
has to pay for the unfortunate incident
that few votes additional were needed
to secure a majority in the assembly.
There is no use in arguing about this.
1t represents condition, not a theory.
Charters and court decisions cut no fig
ure. Some more litigation is the great
requirement That we can have supplied
easily, since the law officer Of the city
government Is one of those who
are willing to commit themselves
to the maintenance Of such
state of things; or, at least. is
the most offensive and radical partisan
politicians that ever held responsible Of
flee in the community-sha1l SO commit
himself.
The supreme court Is a long-suffering
and much-enduring body. 1t has had its
fill of the lltigious spirit which dominates
our retrenching and reforming politicians.
But it exists for just such work; and as
long as the city is willing to pay the ex-
pense and McCardy stands ready to audit
the resulting claims, 1t is always easy to
arm ourselves with supreme court de-
cision 1t is lottery. One good num-
Der is sure to come out of the judicial
drawing some time. So let us all take
chances. What does the holding up of one
pay roll more or less amount to? If pay
rolls were not held up the public might
forget that there are treasury watch
dogs, and McCardy and the other reform
ers might, as result. fall into that pitt
full state described as innocuous political
desuetude.

news dispatch telling of the new concss-
sion will illustrate:


''Mr. Crimmins said that the company
would prefer to have the government
leave the matter in the company's hands
so as to permit a private construction
and operation of the canal for the benefit
of the whole world. However, he added,
the syndicate had no desire to embarrass
the government and would defer to Its
conception of policy"
The assertion that the company will
prefer to build the canal and operate
it alone can be set down as monu-
mental bluff If any private company
ever preferred such course, or could
have such preference, the canal would
have been in full operation years
ago. The Cragin-Eyre syndicate will be
in a position to embarrass the govern
ment, but the latter knows how it can
avoid being embarrassed. The syndicate
will defer" to the government-for a
consideration. The evidence pointing to
this Conclusion will satisfy any mind
that carefully examines into the subject.
The prospects for a scandal in case
the government decides to build the
oltcn appear promising.
But there is no denying that public
sentiment in regard to the practicability
of the Nicaraguan canal has been under
going change lately. AS long as con-
sideration Of the subject was chiefly SEN
timental, objection was overborne with a
hurrah, but cold facts have been get
t., I,OFr feEo fy~Or,
our Atlantic coast to the Orient is shorter
via Suez canal than it would be through
the isthmus. This was the first anti
canal fact that succeeded in penetrating
the public mind. Then came the show
ing that every canal ever built, with the
single exception of the Suez, is today
either abandoned or losing venture. In
short, canals are back numbers in the
transportation problem. The exception
of Suez only proves the rule, and the
only thing that saved 1t from the common
fate were it's natural advantages of To-
cation and topography. Even the Kiel
canal, opened with such a flourish and
amid great predictions, is miserable
failure. In view of these facts, and more
Of the same kind that will doubtless be
submitted later, it would not be strange

bonds, are engaged in a hazardous specu-

A SPECULATION LAUNcHED.


The announcement that the government
of Nicaragua has granted a perpetual
canal franchise to the Cragin-Eyre syndi-
cate, Incorporated under the laws of New
Jersey, reveals a very deep speculative
scheme somewhere. Accepting as a fact
the intention of congress to provide for
the building of the canal, this course was
not at all necessary, nor is there any good
reason why a private syndicate should
start an enterprise which it Is fully ex-
pected congress win take hold of SOON
er or later. 1t looks a great deal like ma
neupering for a position calculated to
ury, and this appearance is strengthened
by the entire history of the Nicaragua
canal business. AT every stage of the
discussion in congress, and in every bin
introduced, have appeared the claims OF
some private syndicates for compensa-
ton for alleged rights, concessions or for
property and labor. In no instance has
it appeared that the canal would be con-
vate parties concerned In the absence Of
government help. They took hold expect
ing the government to come in later and
make them rich, But they had a short
time franchise, and 1t expired before con-
gress was ready to act The New Jersey
corporation evidently does not propose To
be left holding tho sack by any such
lapse, and with Its perpetual franchise is
prepared for congressional delay and ma
nipulation. II will begin some sort of
work at once along the route recommend.
ed by the government commission Itself,
and thus establish valid claim for com
pensation later In case the canal bill
should become law. This Is not what
the officers of the syndicate say. Indeed,
they ARE talking In a much different
strain. The following extract from the

IMPOSSIBLE ..REc1pRoc1rY.Y


The extreme protectionists in the Unit
ed States had hardly Gained down after
their vigorous crusade against the rect
procity treaties negotiated with foreign
a provision of the Dingley law, than a
mighty protest was heard in the direction
of Germany The protectionists Of the
latter country have taken up the same
familiar cry heard over here. They have
been swindled. The United States has
driven sharp bargain, and has much
the best of it in the arrangement Of the
schedules The German suspicious are
aroused by the fact that the foreign Of
fee has not published the new schedules.
This is, apparently, all the evidence the
German Dingleyites have to support their
charges, but, like their brethren elsewhere
in the world, they can make great cry
over small things, and it better suits their
purpose to adopt this method of arous
ing prejudice against reciprocity in those
who may be inclined toward liberal
thought on the subject Of tariff.
Thus it is in Germany as 1t has been in
France and the United States. The 9TH
er side has beaten us and "our own" in
dustries have been injured in the agree
ment. The International society Of Ding
leyites is consistent. They are not OPP
posed to asking tariff concessions from
tr;< ,1aY
country must not grant any. If it does,
the act amounts to an assault upon the
sacred principle of protection, and must
be resented as such.
The Republican brand Of trade reel
procity is pure and unadulterated hypoc-
risy. It is the fruit Of doubt In the minds
Of certain Republicans in regard to the
wisdom of extreme protection, and it nee
essarily clashes with the opinion of other
Republicans who have no doubt whatever
in that particular. 1t is a concession to
the soundness of the free trade principle,
but the concession is made under an elab-
crate construction of false pretense. Be-
cause it IS such concession, it is oppos-
ed by the extreme protecdonists, as has
been noted in the discussion of the several
treaties lately negotiated, and because Of
the false pretense surrounding 1t, free
traders reject it as an economic prope-
sitien. Democrats may tolerate it as an
opening wedge to serious disagreement
among Republicans over the cardinal par
ty doctrine but they cannot accept the
Republican argument which seeks to JUS
tify it. The latter is an embodiment of
false economics second only to that of
protection itself. Protection would club
the foreigner out of the country, while
reciprocity would club him into accept
ing our own goods on the basis of a re-
ductien in rates which have previously
been increased for the express purpose
of the deal. The trouble over ratification
noted on all sides is simply dispute over
the size Of the clubs Tt will never be
settled satisfactorily as long as there are
clubs at all, and the best peace and pros
perity in International trade can only come
with equitable exchange of commodities.
under such conditions as win serve the
revenue demands of an economical and
honest government
