TONNES Term of omee.

Minneapolis Journal.
Senator Chandler has stirred up an
unnecessary row about Charles A
Townes credentials as United States SEN
ator from Minnesota 1t is true that the
constitution of the United States says
that when a vacancy occurs. the legisla-
ture not being in session, the governor
shall appoint a temporary senator until
the next meeting of the legislature, which
shall then fill all such vacancies" But
the Interpretation of this clause as evil
denced by practice is that the appointee
holds his Office until the legislature
elects, unless it should adjourn without
electing, in which case the appointee's
term would expire simultaneously with
adjournment of the legislature. Under
this Interpretation, which Mr.. Chandler
Mr.. Towne will hold his seat in the SEN
ate until the coming session of the legis-
Iature elects a successor to Davis pro-
viding it elects at all The st. Paul Pho
neer Press is wrong, therefore, in edi-
torially asserting this morning that Mr.
TONNES term ends with the assembling
Of the legislature These facts were
pointed out in this column before Mr.
Towne's appointment. Senator Chandler
was merely guarding against a possible
construction of Mr.. TONNES credentials
to mean that he Will hold indefinitely
until a senator is elected. AS Gen
George 2. Wilson points out, Mr.
TONNES credentials are in accordance
with the Minnesota statutes and are
based on the only reasonable tnterpreta-
ton of the constitution

We are asked to sink 200, O00, OOO of our
good hard American dollars in the Mica
raguan canal, and some of the best en-
gineers of the world even claim that il
will cost us fully $500, COG, 600 before we get
it done. That is an awful big pile of
money. Hadn't we just better stop and
think moment before we rush into it !?
What good will it do US? VIII it pay?
If we build 1t AID make it neutral
1t won't do US any more good than

nal and that would destroy any advan-
tage that we might hope to gain from the
Nicaragua canal in case of war, and
practically ruin 1t as a business under
taking. The Panama canal, being neu-
tral. shorter and more convenient, would
get the bigger share of the shipping. And
then all that Wen have Will be a big

WHY THEY FAIL.

All who look forward to the ultimate
control of public and private virtue in
the conduct of the affairs of American
municipalities will be attracted by the
great revival of interest in reform, So
cial as well as political, which is showing
New York and Chicago, and, to less ex-
tent, in other cities like Philadelphia.
Both in New York and Chicago the ex.
listing movement is for the time directed
against a supposed confederacy OF poll
tics and crime. Crime and criminal re-
sorts seem in both communities to have
succeeded in rnonopolizing general atten-
ton. In New York, much less than in
Chicago, the outward indications OF vice
have been accompanied by actual GRIM
inal outbreak. In Chicago the city has
been passing of late through a perfect
hurricane Of crimes of violence. Life
and property have been wantonly assail-
ed even in the day time; and the dark
ness of night have brought feelings of
insecurity to every class of law-abiding
society.
1t is not surprising, under the admitted
circumstances, that the people of the
two communities should be aroused In
the Western cities the mayor seems to
have readily responded to the public de-
mand. and the most notorious resorts of
social vice have been forced to clo1e.
Whatever may be said Of the enduring
nature of the reforms which Mayor aar-
| rison has indicated his readiness to help
along or as to the influence of politics
| in causing him to take the steps he has
| taken-the municipal election coming off
! in April-there seems to be entire accord
| between the forces Of Chicago city gov
eminent and of the Chicago business and
religious communities in the effort to
bring about betterment OF existing CON
ditions.
In New York the problem, at least on
its face, is more complex. Official COM
piicity In maintaining and protecting
vice seems there to be the issue The
police are openly charged with deriving
large incomes from the fruits of criminal
life. Whole sections of the city have been
rendered unfit for decent residence, and
criminal resorts have openly Haunted
their existence in the eyes of the decent
public Bishop Potter is the leader of the
moral movement in New York. He en-
joys the faith and the devotion of most,
if not ali, of those who seek to bring to
an end conditions which are little more

of interest to know, were always made

Benjamin Vests picture of the Death
Of Nelson is closely connected with an
anecdote of the great sailor Just be-
fore he went to sea for the last time,
he was present at a dinner, during which
he sat between the artist and Sir VIII
liam Hamilton. Nelson was expressing
to Hamilton his regret that he had not,
in his youth, acquired some taste for art
and some discrimination in Judging it.
But" said he, turning to West, there
is one picture whose power 1 do feel.
I never pass a shop where your Death
of Wolfe is in the window without be-
ing stopped by it." West made some
gracious answer to the compliment, and
Nelson went on: ''Why have you painted
no more like it?'' Because. my lord"
West replied. there are 40 more sub
jects'' "Ah." said the sailor ct didn't
think Of that" But, my lord" con-
tinued West, st am afraid your intrep-
idity will yet furnish me with another
such scene; and if it shou d, I shall GER
tainly avail myself of it." ''WiH you?"
said Nelson-''Will you Mr. West? Then
I hope I shall die in the next battle!'
A few days later he sailed, his strangely
expressed aspiration was realized and
the scene lives upon canvas.

than a reproduction of those which have
prevailed with brief intervals for the
past twenty years or over in that COM
munity.
It must always be to all Americans OF
public spirit and patriotic pride a source
of much pain that such occasions should
arise as those which now engage the
energies of the people and officials of
New York and Chicago. And every de-
cent person will hope that the movement
may result in enduring success. Yet the
difficulties and Instantaneous which lie
in the path of those who assume the
task of publication can never be lost
sight Of They are manifold and al
most insuperable under present circum-
stances. They are no greater today than
they ever have been in the past. One OF
those difficulties has already been real
lied by Bishop Potter, as is shown by
the following extract taken from recent
address delivered by him:
We who live in cities cannot be the
creatures Of impulse Don't you see the
passed the point where impulse can be-
come a law, and have come to the point
where the other man has rights Whlch
we are bound to respect. The
thing that disheartens me most is the
note of despair in those who say that ex-
listing conditions in New York cannot be
remeded. That is infideHty, no matter
whether the man who says 1t is Christ
ian or not.
1t is this spirit that deters the best men
from doing anything to help such move
ments. It arises to some considerable ex-
tent out Of the feeling that self-interest
demands much prudence in engaging in
such movements. Men Of experience
| have seen them grow and prevail at brief
intervals, and have seen those who have
achieved what was thought to be perma-
nent success in conducting them, con-
fronted by equally bad If not worse con-
ditlons in a brief space thereafter; and
they are accordingly careful to avoid
becoming involved in them.
The party political features which all
Of such movements present result al
must invariably in their betrayal. NO
moral publication movement can ever
succeed which arrays itself on the side Of
one set of politicians against another or
allows one set of politicians to array
themselves on its side against another
set. The movement is sure to be used for
political ends in either event; and the
only gain is to the set of politicians who
happen to come out successful in the
changes which are wrought in official life
as the result.
The fact that ali such movements in the
past have died out, and that the evils
complained Of have thereafter arisen, Of
ten in aggravated form, shows that they
are conducted on lies which will not reach
to the accomplishment of the great end
of making men and women better alike
in their public and private relations
