The Republican Lenders,

Something upon which the republican n
party may very well congratulate itself is
the absence of all bitterness among its
strong men toward one another There is
not personal row OF anything like seri-
Gus proportions ON the horizon. There is
sCme very spirited rivalry for supreme
leadership. but that Is always to be well
ccmed by any party. 1t keeps the pool
stirred. and insures political health. But
there Is not one of the aspirants for the
republican nomination for President In 1904
who would not in case Of success at the
national convention receive the most cor
dial support at the polls of all his defeated
rivals, The brethren are dwelling togeth-
er in fair degree of unity and good WILL
and while from now on they will bestir
themselves to win the prize. there seems no
probability of clash which would operate
disastrously on the party
This is circumstance of note when it is
remembered how that party has suffered
IN the past thirty years from personal an
tagenisms. The Blaine-Conkling episode
alone cost it very dearly. A good deal of
momentous history grew out of that-the
nomination of Mr.. Hayes in 1876. the nomi-
nation of General Garfield in 1880, and the
defeat of Mr.. Blaine for the presidency in
field were compromise candidates The
former secured office by so narrow a mar
gin that he was practically debarred from
asking an Endorsement at the polls, while
there resulted from the latter's election
such a tragedy and such complications that
the party, even under the leadership Of it,
strongest man. went to defeat four years
later. A single speech from Mr.. Conkiing
would have saved the day for Mr.. Blaine.
but the one was as far from asking it as
the other was from volunteering 1t.
1t was all a very dear price to pay for
the personal feelings of two strong and able
men. Not only the republican party but
the country suffered For who shall say
how greatly the country would have bene-
fitted from the presence in the White House
for four or eight years of so capable. so ex-
perienced and so aggressive leader as Mr.
Blaine? He was well beloved at home and
much respected abroad. and an admfnistra-
ton dominated by him would undoubtedly
have accomplished much for the country's
welfare.
We witness now a totally different situa-
tion. Mr.. Mckinley, In a way to secure
unbounded applause, puts an end to all
third term talk and there is not a leader
left in the field who cherishes for any rival
in his party a feeling which would pro-
woke. in any sense excuse, Indifference
or secret opposition in the presence Of the
common enemy. In view of this fact the
republican party owes it to the country to
make the strongest possible nomination

Folly of Century Runs.

1t is hard to see how even the greatest
advocate Of the bicycle can find anything
to commend In the practice of holding cen
tury runs on every convenient holiday. The
ability to ride a bicycle rapidly for a short
distance may often be extremely valuable
and nothing can be more delightful than
an easy spin along the pleasant country
roads. But when a lot OF men start out al
5 o'clock in the morning and race like mad
fifty miles out into the country and back
again the sport of bicycle riding degen-
crates to the same plane with the snake
and torture dances Of the Moaui Indians
and other similar tests of endurance.
Bicycle riding. and even bicycle racing
under proper conditions, Is to be approved
but these free-for-all century runs should
be stopped. They furnish amusement to an
extremely small number of people and they
serve no good purpose of any kind

PLAIN TALK FOR FILIpINOS.
Public Discussion of the Draft Of
the Act Against Treason
and SeditI0n.

Manila, Nov 4.-There was a pub
lie discussion before the Philippine
commission, yesterday, of the draft
OF the act against treason and sedi.
ton. Many prominent Filipinos were
present Niee-Goy. Wright explained
the object of the bill, saying that the
Spanish code was unsatisfactory.
There are number Of people liv-
ing in the Philippines" remarked
Mr.. Wright, "who, so long as there is
no punishment for treason, will take
advantage Of the fact to clog the
wheels of the insular government. 1t
must not be overlooked that turbu-
lent spirits exist in the pacified prov
lnces. The masses of the people are
susceptible of infammatory utter
ances, and liable to be influenced by
seheming demagogues. 1t would be
inexcusable weakness on the port OF
the commission to allow the people ia
be aroused to deeds OF violence who
are now gradually drifting to the pur
suits Of peace.

INTENSELY DRAMATIC SCENE.
The accommodated Priest, Father
Crowley, Defles the Author-
ity of the Bishop.

Chicago. Nov. 3.-There was an IN
tenseiy dramatic scene in Holy Name
Cathedral to-day, when, in the pres
enee of fully one thousand parishloh'
ers. eJremiah j. Crowley, the eXcon-
municated Roman Catholic priest,
was publicly humiliated by order Oh
the authorities of the church.
Father Crowley had entered the
church unobserved, passing up the
center aisle, and had taken a seat al
most under the pulpit. Solemn higu
mass was being celebrated at the time.
When the presence of Father Crowley
became known, Rev. Francis j. Bar
ry. chancellor of the archdiocese OF
Chicago, was hurriedly sent for. Upon
entering the cathedral he went
straight to the seat where the exeom-
municated clergyman was kneeling
and ordered him to leave the church.
Father Crowley refused to CO. say
ing:
"Put me out if you dare"
The strain was intense, and one
woman tainted. There was no resort
to force. however. Chancellor Barry
sipnalled to a man in the choir lo1t
and the sound of the organ ceased
and the singing Of the choir was
hushed.
The priests in the altar stoppeC
, the solemn service at the end OF th'
"Gloria" and walked to the benehe
' and laid aside their golden vest
4 ments. The altar boys marched ou
v Of the sanctuary through side door
d and the priests, clad in their cassockS
3 followed. The next moment the hun
n dreds of incandescent lights in tn
4 yaulted arches were extinguished an
n the candle lights on the altar Wer
put out.
j, The strain was broken when Char
h. cellor Barry appeared in the pulp
h and said;
= = "Owing to the presence in this S;
