SHEPARD, MUNICIPAL IuPERIAL1sr
From The Outlook.

from Inc OUTLOOK
We do not here discuss the position which Mr.
Shepard assumes any further than to express our
absolute and unequivocal dissent from it, as un-
republican and undemOcratic. The notion that the
oath of the officer elected, that he has not made
any promise to influence the giving or Withholding
of vote prohibits him from making pledges he
fore the election respecting the public policy which
he will carry if elected in order that rhe
people may know what kind OF an administra tion
they will receive under his direction and control ap
pears to to be one which cannot taken seri-
ously by any voter who gives TO any considerable
reflection The people of the city have the right
to determine whether they wish to retain such
police administration as that which Tammany has
given them for the last four years, and is now
giving them; they nave a right TO elect
Mayor for the very purpose of putting an end 10
that ADMINISTRATION. and they have a right To
know explicitly, from him. whether or not he will
execute their will The police administration and
the men who are carrying 1t on trial
before the people, who are themselves the jury
and who are to render their Judgment the issues
made up before them and the Mayor is the exec
utive officer TO enforce their Judgment when Ii is
rendered, not an emperor 10 render Judgment in
their stead.
Whatever Mr.. Shepards position in national pol
iticS, his Brooklyn speech makes IL clear that in
city politics he is imperialist and that the issue
In New-York is not only between partisan and a
non-partisan administration but also between i'm
psrial and democratic ideas in municipal AFFAIRS

sian Government, which has long exerted
paramount influence over the government at
Sofia. The Russian Government is not, Of course.
to be held legally responsible for Miss Stones
fate. But if it exerts all its influence in her
behalf with the Macedonian Committee and the
Bulgarian Government there is reason TO believe
she will be saved. AS for the Turkish and Bull
garian governments, their direct and technical
responsibility is so great that we cannot believe
they will permit Miss Stone to suffer death or
any serious indgnity. This is not a good time
for brigands, whether Christian or Moslem, to
murder an American woman.

tiic skill which marks the medical profession.
But behind them are the millions of citizens,
who are after all. most interested in the matter,
and without whose support and cooperation all
the other efforts will be in vain. So this new
institute and every such step taken, profess
sional official, should be an inspiration and
an ncitement to all citizens to promote. so far
as in them lies, as residents and as voters, the
work of making this city foremost not only IN
facilities for medical study, but also in excel
lence of sanitation and of all conditions which

sANTOs-DUuOyTs ACHIEVEMENT.

Whether NJ. SantosDumont receives the
Deutsch prize for his performance of yesterday
not, he is to be congratulated on coming so
nearly within the prescribed time limit and
finishing his trip in safety. The speed developed
seems to have exceeded but little that attained
by him on several previous occasions in the
last two years But hitherto every time he
seemed likely to accomplish his object some
unforeseen embarrassment inrerfered and on
two occasions his life was imperilled.
The young Brazilian showed magnificent
pluck in sticking 10 his scheme, though the cost
OF frequent repair and occasional reconstruc-
tion Of his airship has drawn heavily on his
purse and patience. And now at last. he has

average rate of fifteen miles an hour, thus

From The Saturday Review.

1t appears that President Roosevelt has appointed
a Democrat, one in every way fitted for the post to
important judicial position in Alabama. This
makes the new President a really dangerous man.
for II he is going to make merit and party the
of fitness for office, what becomes the spoils
system? And il the spoils system goes. with goes
the machine. and the whole fabric of American
party politics comes down with crash. From the
primaries to the conventions finally adopting the
Presidential candidate, the tutter among the poll
ticians will be great. What oratory will be devoted
TO this "tampering with the pillars of the cousttu-
uon. as the rings and the bosses would describe
the Presidents weakness for merit. If MIR. Roose-
welt has the courage to go through with this de-
parture there will be battle of giants on the one
side ''suprema salus reipublice. ON the other the
bread and butter, the very existence. of all those
who have held American politics in their hands

votes for Shepard. the Devery candidate.
A suggestion has been made that some OF the
transportation lines in various parts of the
country, inspired by true Yankee restlessness
and impatience for novel experiments, may put
roof1ess cars in streets and avenues next sum-
mer. This notion does not appear to possess
the backing of common sense. The open cars,
of which many thousands used in the
United States during many months of the
year. afford free passage to the breezes from
every quarter Nothing is to be gained by TAX
ing off the roofs. The running of cars with no
covers to protect passengers from the fiercest
rays of the midsummer from the cat
aracts which hot weather thunderstorms send
pelting down frequently would seem to be the
extreme of foolishness.

Coker, the Chairman of the Drew County Central Committee was delegated to visit Arkansas City, and urge this plan. after the Drew County Committee had adopted it, pro- vided it was agreeable to Desha. MT. Coker performed hi. duty and found the Desha people perfectly willing to the agreement.
 So as the matter now stands the Drew county people, alone, will have to do with nominating the Senator for the first term, and for the second term Desha people will do the same. The Central Com mittees believed this plan to be the best for all concerned and 1t is their hope that all parties interest ed will be satisfied. The Drew County Chairman, Mir. Coker, in- forms us that the Committees act ed as they thought best for the Democracy in their respective counties, and not in the interest of any candidate.
