FRIDAY. JANUARY II. 1901.
Governor Jordan's Message.

Ii is one of the most sensible aud Use
ful productions Of the times. Governors
nowadays are too apt 10 display some
new scheme more or less visionary to
attract attention aud display originality.
Gov Jordan had 40 need of this, nor
was his attention DETECTED 10y any at
tempts at pretentious diction or has fear
of losing his dignity SO great as To- for
hid or embarrass him in talking of plain.
practical things in clear, forcihle and
pungent manner. His talk on the for
estry of New Hampshire was just such
as would he expected from a lawyer and
legislator and discovered as much famil-
iarity with the nature of the subject OF
forestry as would be expected from a
woodman or child of the forest. His
apparent familiarity with all subjects OF
legislation is a matter that New Iamp-
shire has a right to be proud of but the
chief value and merit of the message, as
it seems to us. is the brief manner in
which he impresses upon the members
their responsibilities and then the alb
sence thereafter of all generalities. lie
points out specifically methods of doing
the work to the best advantage, details
all subjects, and specifies defects and
remedies. and instead of dealing in gen
eral assertions like that such Legislation
ought to be as the interests of the state
require. he tells Just what he think:
ought to be done, and how, and he deal'
with every subject with as much freedom
and personal mconcern as he would i
dealing with abstract subjects in which
persons had no special or personal inter
est The economy of the message Ii
rigid but its humanity and benevolenc,
is equally broad and advocates ampl,
but intelligent appropriations. We con
graduate New Hampshire on having
man at the helm whose ideas are 5,
broad as to leave no fear that lie vii
deca pitate men holding state Offices be
cause they did not advocate from TIN
beginning his selection for the office o
chief magistrate of the state.

In listening to the debates i'll the t.
s. Senate on the Army reorganization
bill one is struck with the peculiar
change of sentiment that has occurred
within the last two years on the subject
of our foreign possessions. In Vermont
score of young, ambitious men We're
crying treason to all who did not join in
the cry of expansion, no matter to what
extent or OH what conditions it was to
be accomplished. 1t is true they were
mostly young men, and men who were
seeking public positions, but of course
that had nothing to do with their chanc-
ing to be so unanimous and Jealous.
Now all those huriementS have ceased
Men are not tumbling over each other
to get into print and striving to see who
should outrun the others in eXtravagant
enthusiasm. Instead Of that rushing
current of excitement men are soberly
studying the peculiar conditions of the
country in their relation to the funda-
mental law of the land. A period of
reason and calm deliberation seems to
have succeeded that wave of military
enthusiasm that seemed to carry every
body off their feet. And thank God for
the existence of those strong mental
elements which have hitherto been sutii-
cient to stay any wild current that has
ever been started in the country before
it became absolutely ruinous. While
the faithful, honest regard for the con-
stitution existed there was no danger
but when sentiment of disregard Of
our fundamental laws broke loose and
undertook to act independent of law,
and under no guide or ruler but the flag,
times became dangerous and for mo-
ment the fate Of the country hung be-
tween a sentiment Of wild military en-
thusiasm and the conservative sentiment
of the country. Fortunately the latter
prevailed. And when it is the stronger
it will prevail, constitution or No consti-
tuition because it will be the strongest
live sentiment in the government of our
people. The only danger is when the
people shall get so far from the consti-
tuition as to lose it's protection, and one
of those wild currents OF sentiment shall
engulf the conservatism of the country,
then of course will come absolute an
archy. But the country is safe for the
present, at least, because men have had
time to think and many of our former
aspirants for Office are having oppor-
tunitv to reflect on the situation. Prob
lens deep and intricate are being studied
and solved by congress, the supreme
court of the United States, by a host OF
leading men all over the country, per.
haps including the President. If some
Of the questions now pending should be

Gently entertained by or lately bloom
