BEGGARs UNMAsIxED.

Many, if not the majority, of the
professional beggars which infest the
cities are not deserving of charity.
Comparatively few of them are aff1ict-
ed with the hideous deformities by
means of which they appeal to the
sympathies of the public They are
assumed for the purposes of their bust
ness.
That this is. true is proved by the
crowds which fought for places in the
line of people that We're seeking to
draw their money out of Jarmulow-
sky's bank. in New York city last
week, a run on that bank having been
started by false rumors as to its con-
dtion. That institution is situated
well down town and is largely patron
lied by the poorer class of people and
professional beggars.
According to reports in New York
papers the most vigorous fighters for
places in the Nne of those seeking to
withdraw their money were the pro-
fessional beggars. They presented no
marks of physical deformities, how
ever. Their blindness, their awful pal
lor, their bent and twisted limbs, and.
in fact, all evidence of a disability to
earn a livelihood had disappeared. They
were as strong and agile as If they
were in the best of health, and they
easily elbowed aside men and women
known to be earnest and honest toll
ers.
1t is matter of wonder that steps
are not taken in New York and other
cities to expose these frauds, so that
the money which a generous public
gives them might go to deserving poor
II is stated that they collect from IS
to 500 day, and that all they get is
clear gain, except the small percent
age which they pay to the police for
protection and to certain other per-
sons who permit them to occupy places
advantageous for carrying on their
business.
1t is probable that these profess
sional beggars are holders of large
amounts of money in the savings
banks in every city in which they or
crate. They are tolerated because the
public does not know their fraudulent
character and will not take the time
and trouble to find it out. But. in
justice to many deserving poor that
would rather suffer in silence than ask
for assistance, the authorities ought
to inquire into the actual condition
of these professional beggars. and put
stop to their business when it is
found that they are frauds.

The late Eugene Stanislas Kostzka
de Mitkiewicz used to tell a story of
the cynicism of Ii Hung Chang, says
the New York Times. Mitkeiwicz a
professional promoter spent some
of the best years of his life in an un-
successful attempt to engineer the es-
Establishment of a great Chino-Ameri-
can bank. Millions were involved
and it was necessary to secure the
favor of Earl Lii Mitkiewicz obtain
ed an interview with him, and explain
ed his scheme. The Chinaman listen
ed gravely.

prise. We don't care a rap for YOUR

"Ah, he said, "you are not like 9TH

A Unsuitable Homicide.

Prisoner" said the judge austerely,
according to Ambrose Pierce, in the
New York Journal, you are charged
with murder, which in this region is
crime. Are you guilty or were you
brought up in kentucky?"
If it please your honor" replied the
prisoner, Il will relate the circum-
stances, and as to my guilt will be
guided to a decision by your opinion.
The gentleman who is no more, a resi-
dent of New York city, came to me
at my home and said The overthrow
of Tammany is a striking proof of the
wisdom and virtue of the masses, a
memorable demonstration of the value
of the universal suffrage in municipal
affairs, sharp rebuke to Mr.. Hewitt >
Il admit, your honor, that l killed

Where is your homer" the Judge
asked, not unsympathetically where
did this occur?"
AN untoward fate" replied the
prisoner. "compels me to live in Phil

Let the prisoner go" said the Judge,
and the prosecuting attorney left the
court without stain upon his reputa>
ton.

INJUSTICE TO THE FILIPINos.

There is not a word in the speeches
of the Republicans on the Philippine
tariff bill that indicates that the Re-
publican party intends to give the Fill
ipinos independence. On the contrary,
the legislation which that party pro-
poses for the Philippines indicates a
purpose to hold the islands as colo
MES.
The tariff bill is unjust to the Fill
pinos. The duties on their products
coming into the ports of the United
States are as high as they are on prod
ucts coming from any foreign coun-
try. They are a great deal higher
on their sugar and tobacco than the
Republican party wants to levy on
sugar and tobacco coming from Cuba,
and higher than those proposed, in
reciprocity treaty, on sugar and to-
bacco coming from the British West
India Islands.
Why is it that the Republican lead
ers want to be kinder to the British
West India Islands than 10 the Phil
ippines? The reason cannot be one
that will have the approval of the
American people.
And are the Cubans entitled to more
consideration from us than the Fill
pinos? Why should we favor the for
mer rather than the latter?
1t is not to be wondered at that there
are rumors of a new uprising in the
Philippines 1t cannot be expected
that they will be content if we re-
fuse to let them send their products
to our markets on as favorable terms
as we admit Cuba's products.
The truth is the Philippines present
some very difficult problems. The only
way to solve them, with any degree OF
justice to the Filipinos, is to take the
position on the Philippine question oc-
cupied by the Democratic party, name
ly. assure the Filipinos they shall
have their independence as soon as
they have stable government The
Filipinos would not then consider they
were being dealt with unjustly if they
were treated as a foreign people be-
fore they actually had their independ-
ence.

UNNECESSARY orFIcEs.

Mr.. Seth Low has announced that
he win abolish unnecessary offices
when he becomes Mayor of New York.
That will be a step in the right direc-
tion. There is no law which says that
unnecessary officials shall be kept on
the pay roll.
1t is a safe assertion that in a ma
iority of the cities of this country
there are more officials than there is
any need for. New offices are created
for the purpose of making places for
those who have political claims on the
party or faction in power or of taking
care of friends of political leaders, and
it is seldom that these offices are abol-
ished when the party that created
them goes out Of power. 1t is an easy
matter to create offices, but 1t is Diff
fcult to abolish them.
1t would be interesting to know just
how many more officials there are con-
nected with the government of this
city than there were ten yeasr ago. 1t
is certain that the increase is greater
than is demanded by the increase in
the city's population.
Would it not be a good plan for the
City Council while preparing the bud
get. TO go over the list OF employees
with the view of finding out whether
there are not some whose services
could be dispensed with without in
the least crippling any one of the de-
partments2
This administration claims to be
business administration. 1t is expect
ed. therefore, that 1t will deal with all
matters pertaining to city affairs in a
business-like manner. If there are
more employees than are really needed
why not drop those that can be spared?
1t wouldn't be bad idea to publish
a list of the employees with the salary
attached to each place. The public
might be able to assist the Council in
reaching a decision as to whether there
are any officials who can be spared.
