There is no vice more truly ungentle-
manly than that of using profane lam
guage. There never was a man who
made fortune BY common swearing.
1t often appears that men pay for swear
ing, hut it seldom happens that they
are paid for it. 1t is not easy to per-
ceive what honor or credit is connected
with it. Does any man receive promo
tion because he is notable blusterers
Or is any man advanced to dignity be-
cause he is an experteat profane swear-
ing? Never. Low must be the char
acter which such impertinence willex-
alt; high must be the character which.
such impertinence will not degrade.
Inexcusable, therefore, must be aRls
practice which hasaneitheg IL /.

Don't expect more of paper than
you do for it. If you expect the paper
to speak well of you, you must speak
well of it. Some people say the paper
has nothing in it, the editor has no get
up, is too old and fogy and has no en-
terprise and yet if the paper would say
half that much about them or their
business, even though it be true, they
never would take the paper again and
perhaps never speak to the eoitor again.

TO REMOVE NAMES WRECK.
The Hulk Causing n shoaI to Form
In Havana Hnrbor.

HAVANA, Nov 25.-The Government,
has at last determined to remove the
wreck of the historic Maine The adver-
tisements for bids for doing the work
have been issued, and will be opened on
December 10. The use of explosives will
be prohibited. The wreck and all material
for its removal must be out of the harbor
by April 1. 1901. SO before six months shall
have passed all trace of the once splendid
ship which indirectly won freedom for
Cuba, will be gone.
For many months the dismantled war
masts Of the battleship has been the first
thing OF interest to catch the eve of
tourists from the States. AS they gather
at the bow of the incoming steamers
the wreck of the Maine is always pointed
out first. and probably half the passengers
who are new to Cuba take snap shots at
it with their cameras. There has been
talk of its removal ever since the Ameri-
cans took hold of the Cuban Government
Last winter three or four firms in the
United States expressed their willingness
to raise the wreck for what material could
be removed. but these offers were not ac-
certcd.
At one time il was proposed that the
wreck should always be LETT there rs a
sad monument of the war but it has cen
found that its continued presence is hurt
ing the harbor. y shoal is being formed
about it by the movement of the tides
and the available space for anchorages is
gradually being lessened.
The removal of the wreck will not only
be a good thing practically, but it will
be advantageous also from a sentimental
point c. view. Its presence here is an I'M
pleasant reminder of the bitterness exist
ing between Spain and the United States
just before and during the, late war
When Americans first see it there is al
ways a wave of Indignation against the
Spaniards. Now that the Spaniards in
Cuba are really more friendly to the
United States than the majority OF the
cubans. it will be just as well that all re-
minders of the war should he removed.
No doubt the United States will be
flooded with all sorts of souvenirs as
soon as the removal begins. and it does
not seem improbable that a wrecking
company might easily pay the cost of the
removal by the sale of such souvenirs.

RooseveIt's Ideas on Police Reorsan
ixation In New York.

nation In New York.
NEW YORK, Nov. 25.-The plans o
Senator Thomas C. Plat for a Stat,
police force may be the cause Of dis
agreement between him and Governor
Roosevelt. TIE Governor. who was once
a police commissioner. has always taker
a keen interest in the affairs of the de-
partment.
Since Senator Platt's declaration in IA
vor OF the passage OF a State constabu-
larry bill by the coming session of the
Legislature the Governor has maintain
| ed an eloquent silence. He has neither
approved nor dlsapproved of the PROPOSE
tion. But his close personal friends as
sert that he has plans OF his own for the
reorganization OF the police department Of
the Greater New York.
His views have already been made
| known to the commission which IS now
at work in revising and perfecting the
charter of consolidation by which the
Greater New York was created. The
feature Of the charter relating 10 the
police department Of the city is regard
ed by the Governor as the most import
ant with which the revision commission
has to deal.
The Governor has kept in close touch
with the members of the commission who
have been designated by their colleagues
to prepare draft of those sections of the
document which relate to the police de-
partment.
Before the final draft Of these sections
has been completed the Governor will
confer with the members of the full COM
mission and assist In the final revision.
Intimate friends of the Governor say that
Is,I.
ment Of State constabulary to supersede
the present police department do not fully
meet the views of the Governor as to what
should be done to improve the condition
of the force, although he is not opposed
to the general principle involved
Since the close of the campaign the
Governor has conferred with several up
State Republican leaders to determine
the extent of the opposition to the plans
Of Senator Platt for State corstabulary
and the chances for the incorporation in
the revised charter Of the plan Of reor-
ganization favored by him and by .sitizens
who are advising him to urge the cbser-
vance of home rule in the administration
of the affairs of the police department.
The final draft of the charter is likely !
to contain few surprises for Senator |
Plat and the machine leaders who are |
with him in demanding the establishment |
of the proposed State constabulary.
Representatives Of policemen of all |
grades are watching the deliberations of |
the charter commission and have sub
mitted propositions which are endorsed |
by the men whose interests ire affected.
The general sentiment Of men Of all
grades in the department favors the views
Of Governor Roosevelt, and is opposed to
the plans of Senator Platt.
