CROkEH SILL RULES,

Notwithstanding the reports which have
been circulated In New York that Mr..
Richard Croker would not, in all proba-
bLity. return to that city. he continues to
dominate it as comp. etely as if he con-
troued every one of its voters.
1t is amusing to follow the movement
which he inaugurated to rid the city of
lis places Of vice. He appointed COM
mittee of five. and announced that Tam
It in everything it did. 1t found there
was a great deal of vice, and that Chief
Of Police Devery was responsible for It.
Then the Legislature was asked to legis-
iate Devery out of Office. 1t passed a bill
making one commissioner the head of the
police and aboiishing the office OF chief.
The Mayor was given authority TO APP
point the Commissioner of Police. He ap-
pointed MIR. Crokers great friend, man
named Murphy. The appointment was not
criticised much until Mr. Murphy APP
pointed Devery chief deputy and dele
gated to him pretty nearly all of his au-
thority. The ex-Chief of Police therefore
has more authority than he had before
he was legislated out Of office. and It is
understood thai the places of vice will
not be disturbed.
And It IS announced that Mr.. Croker APP
proves the new arrangement. That would
seem TO indicate that he is not anxious 10
crush vice IN the metropo is But his anti
vice committee has, IT seems. come to tho
conclusion that there is no further need
for its services, and has stepped down and
out. What a siavish peope the New
Workers must be to submit TO the rule Of
a man who makes his home in Eng and.
They don't deserve any better government
than they have.

ADMIRAL SAMPSON AND HIS ENE-


Admiral Sampson has given his enemies
a fine chance to lessen whatever popu-
larity he has. and it looks as If they in
tend to mako the most of it. He is one
of the last men who would be suspected
of making such blunder as his alleged
letter in Gunner Morgan's case is. As
Stunning that the letter is genuine. and
there does not appear to be any doubt
that 1t is. his enemies are justified in
claiming that If he is capable of exercis-
ing no better Judgment in commanding a
heet in action than ne showed in the let
ter in question, it is fortunate for the
country that he was not present when
the naval battle of Santiago was fought
His view that because the warrant Off
GERS come, as rule. from the working
classes they cannot therefore be gentle
men, will be resented by every true
American. As a matter OF fact many of
the naval officers had no more distinguish
ed origin than Gunner Morgan had. Per-
haps If records were compared It would
be found that the warrant officers are
as well born as the officers who
have commissions. Many of those
who have graduated from the naval acad-
envy at Annapolis had very humble or
igin. The fathers of some of the most
distinguished naval officers earned their
living in very humble occupations. It is
said that the father of Admiral Samp-
son was a gardener, and that before en-
tering the academy he himself worked as
a common laborer. II the rule which the
Admiral wishes applied to Gunner Nor
gan had been applied to him when he
sought an appointment to the naval acad-
envy, it is probable that he would not be
in the navy.
1t seems that It was the Secretary OF
the Navy who recommended that a law
be passed permitting promotions from the
ranks OF the warrant officers. His pur-
pose was TO encourage bright and oapa-
bic young Americans to enlist in the navy.
He saw thet If 1t were not possible for
an enlisted man to get a commission a
boy. anxious TO make a career for him
self. would not enlist. He has a very
high opinion Of Admiral Sampson, and
the latters letter therefore protesting
against the policy OF giving commissions
to men who have not graduated at An
napolls on the ground that they are lack
ing in the requirements OF polite society.
must have been a great surprise to him.
II is evident from what was said in Con-
gress Tuesday. that Admiral Sampson
has not made any friends for himself by
his letter among either Senators or Rep
resentatives. In fact the letter may de-
feat the plan TO make him a vice-ad-
miral

A gentleman invited certain lecturer
10 his house to take tea, says Tit-Bits.
Immediately on being seated at the Ia
BILE little daughter of the house said
to the guest abruptly:
Where is your wife?''
The lecturer, who had recently separat-
ed from his better half, was surprised and
annoyed at the question, and stammered
forth the truth:
II don't know
Don know?' repeated the child
why don't you known"
Finding that the child persisted in her
interrogations, despite the mild reproof
of the parents, he decided to make a clea |
breast of the matter and have it over at
once, so he said. with calmness:
'Well, we don't live together. We think
as we can't agree. we'd better not"
He stifed a groan as the chi d began
again, and darted an exasperated look at
her parents.
But the little torment would not be
Quieted until she exclaimed:
Cant agree? Then, why don't you
fight il out, the same as father and
mother do?"

a Lesson for the Teacher.

Little 6-year-old Robbie was ready for
his first day at school, says the Primary
Teacher He was a farmers boy and
as he lived about three miles from the
city school he was to ride with the older
pupils, who were usually taken from their
suburban homes by the city barge.
Robbies heart was full of golden antic-
ipations when he let home that morning.
A.as! when he returned at evening there
was leaden dizziness n their place. School
had not proved that intensely interest
ing place that little Robbie had expected.
But why?
Miss Frazer, the teacher, had been
teaching the children the word COW that
morning. and she had done everything
she could to impr IS the word, The pic
ture, the attributes of the animal upon
the minds of the little ones. But never
once did she ask one of the chi dren
what he or she knew about a COW, and
there was the tile farmer lad running
over with the knowledge OF the subject.
The next morn ng. when Robties class
was called all came out but Robbie Miss
Frazer called. Re bible come out with the
others" Il don't wait to come" was the
unexpected reply. why no. ?" sail the
surprised teacher. The answer came Wi h
contemptuous frankress. Because I've
heard all | want to about that old cow"
1t is doubtful If much arguing or ex-
planning by a super ntendent could have
brought home to Mi F ezers heart such
a les on as did that chi di h c3m ia mt
She pondered the lesson well, and since
that time has tired very hard to r-S.st
that temptation that 80 often b sets a
teacher-.o lock uron CHI dren's m nds as
so many empty vessels into whiah the
water of truth is to be poured and so
stored UP for use.

GOMEZ on THE CUBAN SITUATION.

If Gen. Gomez represents the sentiments
OF the Cuban people much of what is ap-
pearing in the Havana dispatches to the
effect that there is a feeling of un est
throughout the island because of the con-
tinued American occupation is without
substantial foundation. In our dispatches
yesterday a conversation between Gen.
Gomez and Gen. Wood was reported. Gen.
Gomez was quoted as saying that there
was no dissatisfaction because Of the con-
tinued occupation OF the island by the
Americans, that 1t was their duty to re-
main until a stable government had been
established and that If they were to
withdraw now there would be war in the
island inside of ninety days. He further
said that if the Americans went before
a stable government was established he
would also go.
OF course every sensible man knows
that the position he takes is the right
one. 1t is probable that all Cubans vino
really wish their country we'll and who
are sufficiently we'll informed to make
their opinions of value agree with Gen
Gomez. 1t will be six months, probably
longer, before it viii be wise to with
draw all of our troops. Not only must a
stable government be established, but it
ought TO be given a fair trial before
American occupation wholly ceases. The
most dangerous time for the new govern
ment will be the first few months OF its
existence. There will be many who will
be disappointed in not getting places. and
it is probable that there will not be the
promptness and hberaiity hoped for by
many in the settlement of the claims aris-
ing out of the war with Spain. With
dissatisfaction will come threats Of cis-
order. The new government, not having
an army. will be but poorly prepared to
cope with an attempt to overthrow it.
1t would be the greatest kind of a mis-
take for the United States TO abandon the
Cubans to their own resources at this
time. The worst enemy Of Cuba cold
not wish her any greater misfortune.
