The Tribune prints in this issue
the views of nearly a score of News
paper editors in the ACCESSIBILITY OF
negotiating reciprocity treaties with
foreign nation The symposium is
more OF less representative Of the
republican and independent press of
the whole country, but most notably
of the Middle West. The utterances
of these editors may safely be talked
as voicing the sentiment of the ma
jo1ity of their readers. In a discuss
ion of reciprocity the opinions Of de-
mocrats need not figure, since they
take excepti,n to the fundamental
system of protection. upon which
the reciprocity idea is based.
The most striking feature OF this
collection rf editorial opinions is he

So far as the cost of life insurance
goes, virtue is no longer to be its
own and only reward. Two of our
large companies are now issuing
policies to total abstainers in sep
crate class. Others are likely to fol-
low suit.
A petition was presented to one OF
the leading life companies a year
ago, signed by the Rev. Dr. Ed
ward Everett Hale, the Hon. Abram
S. Hewitt. Senator Frye. of Maine,
and other men Of note, protesting
against what they considered the in
Justice of charging total abstainels
the same rates as drinking men for
life insurance. The society recog-
nized the force Of their plea by issu-
ing policies to total abstainers in a
seperate action, so hat if they real
ly do live longer than moderate
drinkers Of alcoholic liquors they
will get larger share of the profits.
This experiment, after few years,
should furnish excellent evidence
on much disputed point. There is
one company in this country that
issues policies only to total abstain
ers, and its claim is that its death
rate is 26 per cent lower than that OF
companies that take AL sorts OF
condition of men,.
Many of the large British life
companies have long made differ
entail rates between drinkers and
teet otalers, and the records kept OF
tn cir respective death rates seem to
Justify the conclusion that the tee
totalels are the superior risk by
about 20 to 25 per cent. It is cur

=. The disgraceful affair at the
Platteville, Wis normal school is said
to have been the first of it's kind at
that institution. Now let the
authorities of the school take measures
which will make it last. There was
foot ball game between Platteville
and Lancaster Wis., teams in which
the Lancasters were victorious and a
dlatteville student who hailed from
Lancaster joined in the cheering for
his home team. Fifteen cowardly
fellows of the Platteville school set
upon the boy late that evening and
dragged him toward the city foun-
tain, intending to administer duck
ing. Their rough handling fright
ened him into inconsistencies, and
they left him lying IN the park,
where other student. discovered and
revived him. But the nervous

but boys in Institutions of higher
learning need not 30 savages. When
they are. they should be dealt with
as such, and not coddled. There are
many good people who think they

and engendered by football and that
which animateS barbarians. The
Platteville incident will hardly have
the effect Of making these old fogies
change their views.

1t is obvious to everybody now
that when Admiral Schley asked for
an investigation he felt a proud con-
seriousness that he had no need to
fear the closest scrutiny of the facts.
Admiral Sampson avoidance of
the investigation, which may, as
his friends assert, have been due
solely to i'll health, has been unfort-
innate, or it. has put him, among
those who do not admire him in the
light Of a man who runs away.
Schley's rectitude and bravery and
good judgement throughout the war
have shone brighter and brighter as
the Investigation proceeded. The
fragrant injustice and cruel insol-
ence Of the N[aclay attack, which
there is strong suspicion that S;,mp-
son might have prevented, are now
apparent. Schley in consequence
takes On in the public estimation the
color of Il martyr and the reaction
of sentiment in his favor will make

There is something portentous,
something almost overwhelming to
the imagination, in the principal
demonstration of the power of the
United States. It seems hardly too
much to expect that the history of
this world is to be determined for
centuries by the potential energy of
the republic, whose traditional pol
