Must Obey Natural Laws.

THE planets remain in the places for
which they are intended. The longer
we hear the Thou shalt of astronomy
the longer we live. Otherwise, as fly
ing meteors, we tumble through space
or dash ourselves in vain against some
world destroyer. The sheep have to
eat grass, the fish must live in water,
the ground moles naturally burrow I'M
der the mountains. the flowers to es-
cape the weeds find their companion
ship in a garden. The owls and the
bats wait until darkness has settled it
self before they can see to start out
for food. The polar bear would soon
die under the intense heat of the trop-
les, and an elephant would freeze to
death sleeping upon an artic iceberg.
That horse has the greatest liberty who
does not pull against the curb, or, as
the Bible more beautifully expresses
| It. tries to kick against the pricks.

ficacy with which the committee has con-
Quoted its task
There will be nothing Of this kind in the
present reform movement. 1t is strange
ly enough, now being conducted on the
theory that those mostly affected by the
existence of unfavorable social or
political conditions are able to
apply the needed remedy. IL
or maintain such men at the head Of
important public departments, it is rea-
sonab.e to believe that these same voters
can apply the remedy without co-operat-
ing with those whom they are opposed to
politically, and whose chief interest is
in securing the offices from which they
happen to be excluded.
Mr.. Nixon, the present chairman of the
Tammany Reform committee, spoke wise
ly when he used the following language:
The list of suspicious places handed
to the police is by no means complete
and we shall be guided by developments
as to whom and how they shall be made
public. My object is TO close such places.
and by closing them demonstrate to their
owners that those who have taken money
from them for protection lack the power
to protect. No matter what party is in
once, about the same sort of men will
be found farm ng cut immunity Every
department of the city government ex-
cept the police department is doing good
work
If corruption prevails it is not because
the corruptlonists happen to belong to
this political party Or that, to this re-
ligious creed or that or TO no creed at
all. 1t is because the people have been
lax in selecting the right men, or in
holding their Representatives to serious
responsibility. This happily is the theory
on which the present movement in New
York is being conducted. 1t will sue
coed, measurably on that basis, when,
on the old plan of conduct, it would be
foredoomed to irretrievable failure
1t will be a bad day for the reformers
Of the Pioneer Press variety when this
view comes to prevail or when so-calied
nen-partisanshiD reform rises above the
dignity of very scurvy political trickery.

THE NEGRO PROBLEM.

This problem readily divides itself into
Two parts. the first of which is the i'm.
provement of the race, mentally, morally
and financially; the other one is the i'm.
mediate question of negro domination.
Much has been done for the negro by
both North and South. Schools and coll
leges have been established and literally
endowed, yet he does not seem to i'm
prove Much of this effort has been ex
pended toward giving him higher cduca-
ton which in the mind of most reform
ers is the acme of all good and the pan
acea for all evil.
But Booker T. Washington says that
this is all wrong; that the educated
negro loses touch with his people and
has no influence on the masses; that
what the negro needs, is to be taught
to work, to live properly in his own
sphere among his own people, to lie
economical and Industrious
Booker T. Washington is probably
right. He is philanthropist and a phi
losopher and he speaks of his own people
whom he has studied all his life The
negro is not in need of higher education
and he is not ready for it and higher
education is not in need of him. But the
South does need him as an honest, COM
petent workingman and farmer. After he
has made a success in the humber walks
of life, he will then be ready for science,
literature and learning and the making
of laws, but not until then It is common
schools he needs, not colleges.
AS to negro domination, that causes a
great deal Of irritation. ignorant AMI
illlterate as the negro is today, no white
people, North or South, would consent to
have him make Or administer the laws Of
their state. TO deprive the iilterate
negro of the ballot by laws requiring an
educational and property test, is the
natural solution of this problem The
only objection that can be raised against
such laws as passed in some of the
Southern states, is that in some cases
these laws are SO framed as to disfran-
chlse the Hliterate negro but not the
iliiterate white man, defect which
ought to and can Well be remedied
Such laws are really of the high
est benefit to the negro, as they demon
strate more clearly than anything else,
the disgrace of illitelacy and the desir-
ability of owning property.

would of course be impossible. The purely
impersonal method would be fesorted to
and settlement ~would.salmosts inevitably
have resulted.
1t is of little avail to legislate against
the present tendency toward concentra-
ton and combination in industrial life.
AS well legislate against the ebb and
flow of the tide. The system is here.
1t is found profitable and in every way
desirable by those who operate under it,
and it will stay, until-it Isl supplemented
by some other system. But if legisia-
ton cannot destroy the movement, 1t
can regulate it. The great evil, as every
one knows, "of such nominations is in
the absorption, through watered stock
and By manipulation of markets, of an
undue share of the profits by those who
conduct them, together with the i'm
position of exorbitant charges These
evils will never. adjust themselves where
competition, healthy and active, does
not exist, and such combinations really
predicate the absence of effective COM

SUBSIDY OR TERRITORY.
w. f. Street Discusses an Article in
the December Forum.

the December Forum.
Mr. Ben ,amIn S,,Taylor, an Englishman,
contributed to the December Forum
very complete article Crom an English
standpoinD on the subject of 1.-THE De-
yelopment of British Shippings' being an
English argument against an American
subsidy to American vessels engaged in
the foreign trade: His tables of figures
are elaborate, and in the main correct,
but his statements of vessel tonnage are
not according to the admiralty tables
and reports, there being no such differ
ence in volume of tonnage belonging
to the respective nations as he sets forth.
Besides he omits from such tonnage ia
bles all record of wooden ships on the
great lakes, where until the past ten
years our most considerable coastwise
business was transacted in such vessels.
He ninimizes the Importance of subsi-
dies to British shipping, which have of
course accrued mainly to the through
liners, but fails to state the basic rea-
sons for the world spread of British
shipping. He correctly says:
''The great ocean commerce of the
world is not so much in the hands OF
OF ocean. 'trampS. The latter class OF
vessels may be called the backbone OF
Britains sea-uade
Then he proceeds to state propositions,
historical and otherwise, which do not
conform to history or fact, and neglects
to state matters Of the highest Importance
to Americans at this stage of the world s
game of commerce and wealth. He gives
the annual value of the trade between
Great Britain and her colonies at about
$500, 900, O00 This includes Canada, Aus
tralasia, British ,Oceanica, British West
Indies. British Africa, India, Hongkong,
and all 1.-The islands beyond seas
that are usually enumerated more
by that description than by name. And
he admits that 50 per cent of this trade
is carried in British vessels. This Is all
too true. But he adds what is not true, as
follows: 81
Needless to- say. there are no regu-
lations either in the British Isles or IN
the British colonies restricting the coast
wise or intercoloniaI trade to British.

of the United EStates now debar British

The facts are that until 1880. American
vessels were not allowed to even deliver
a cargo of goods at British port. And
that only at the point of
retaliation that retaliated did Eng
land permit our vessels to carry
