In A NUTSHELL.

Ex- President Harrison has put
the whole matter of the flag and the
Constitution i'll a nutshell. He af-
firms that if the Republican leaders
be right-ii Congress may govern
the people of our new possessions
without regard for the limitations
OF the Constitution-then we must
assume that the men of 1916 and
1877 contemplated a direct repudia-
ton of the Golden Rule; that they
intended that this nation should
govern lands and people with the
very absolutism against which the
founders OF the nation had defended
themselves at so much cost, and
against which mankind had strug-
gled for centuries in order to make
this Republic possible; that they
proposed that this nation should, in
Its turn, impose on others the yoke
to throw off which this nation itself
was formed. The suggestion is
obviously and wildly unreasonable
We may court serenity under the
assumption that Congress will never
exercise despotic power despotically
that body representative of the
people will never Intentionally leg
islate to permanently injure or to
oppress any peoples who have pass
ed under American sovereignty
but that is beside the question.
Not even for a beuehcent purpose
can Congress be allowed with safety
to assume power which was not
placed in its hands and the exercise
of which would be contrary to eve, y
declaration and tradition. In the
very nature of things it could never
have been the intention of the
founders to allow to Congress the
power to oppress. The founders
were careful to incorporate in the
fundamental law many positive pro-
hibitions and mandatory provisions,
refusing to trust to the patriotism
and enlightened morality of the law.
makers to protect citizens of the
Republic. 1t would be illogical &c
assume that they meant that Con
gress should have absolute power
in the government of other people:
under the American flag. and such
a proposition would have found nc
supporters FIVE years ago. -PhiIa

There certainly can be no objec-
tion to the filing of an additional
bond by the County Treasurer, but
a serious doubt exists in the minds
of many as to the power of the
County Commissioners to cancel
the old bond and thGs relieve the
signers of that instrument from any
legal liability If any shortage in
the Treasurer accounts should be
found for the past year, who would
be responsible for them Certainly
not the new bondsmen, whose
liability begins ouly from the date
of the new bond, and, ii the old
sureties should be released, the
County would have no one but the
Treasurer himself to look to.

Abuses of Patronage.

All the Republican Senators voted
!, to confirm the nomination Of Justice
Harlau's son as Attorney General
for Porto Rico. They could see no
improperly in the Presidents using
his patronage to secure the personal
interest OF a member of the Supreme
Court in the decision OF pending
question.
The iudecency of it does not shock
Senators who are accustomed to
having their own sons appointed to
positions dependent on Congress
ional action. Some of them have
even accepted appointments them
selves to prepare executive meas
u7es on which they were afterwards
to pass Judgment in the Senate.
Four years of McKinleyism have
gone far to blunt the sense of official
honor and dignity.
McKinley's abuse of patronage
has affected all branches of the
public service. 1t has been most
demoralizing in the army and navy,
where promotions and assignments
have been made bv undisguised
tavoritism. This is what makes the
wide discretion allowed to the
President in the army reorganiza-
tion bill particularly alarming.
For instance, the bill provides for
'oue lieutenant general" General
Miles now has that rank as the
senior major general of the line,
and as he is in every way the most
distinguished officer of the army, it
would naturally be supposed that
the actual commission as lieutenant
general belongs TO him as a matter
of course. But Mckinley does not
like Miles, because Miles is too
good soldier to let Mckinley des-
troy the army without protest, and
It is gravely discussed in Washing
ton now whether he may not Jump
General Brooke or the preposterous
Otis over Miles head. Already a
lobby IS at work for Otis. Ii it
were not for the age limit, no doubt
the distinction would be conferred
on the unspeakable Shaiter.
Colonel Mills, who is Just now in
conspicuous discredit, is a sample
OF Mckinley iavoritIsm. He was a
lieutenant OF cavalry, with a volun-
teer commission as captain and 4.
A. g., when he was assigned 10
command over his seniors at the
Military Academy, with the local
rank OF colonel. If he had shown
extraordinary qualifications for this
office, the assignment would have
been justified. But he had not then
and has not since. He was simply
man with pull.
In the navy as Well as in the
army, the man with a pull has done
more mischief than can be undone
IN years. 1t will not be undone AT
all as long as the President is en-
couraged in the capricious exercise
OF arbitrary power and is allowed
to use his patronage with the intent
OF influencing the Judgment OF other
branches OF the government.-Phil-
adelphia Times.

SENATORIAL LINEUP. :


With practically all the members OF

in town, an attempt was made yester-
day TO secure an accurate forecast CT
the first vote for senator The list be
low was compiled after talks with most
of the members. 1t is believed to be as
nearly correct as it is possible to make
such a list before a vote has been taken.
1t viii be seen that Mr.. Mccormick
stands at the top. This may surprise
some of the politicians who have been
figuring that the banker would not
have more than three or four votes at
the outset. During the last few days,
however. he has had accesslons TO MS

have not absolutely declared for him,

ballots.
According to this forecast. Senator
Brown and Governor Thomas OF the
announced candidates are tied, with six
votes each. Both have been claiming
more than this number, and II IS posi-
BILE that OBJECTIONS from one or more OF
the other factions may enable them o
muster a few more votes than the total
shown. Apostle Smoot, it VIII be seen,

yesterday that SmOot would at the
proper time insist that those who are
going to support HIM shall vote Tor
