CONCERNING CABINET CHANGES.
tFrom the Springfield Republican.) }

tFrom the Springfield Republican.l
The stock market yesterday gave out
to tho country an emphatic expression
of confidence in the new administra-'
tion. This is in line with public senti-
ment generally without question, and
is as it should be- There has been no
change necessarily affecting the peace
and prosperity of the country, and up-
til there is, matters commercial, I'm
anclnl and otherwise will continue
upon the accustomed course undls-
turbed. That President Roosevelt,
tempered by the great responsibility
which has fallen upon him, will be
the last man TO do anything knowing
| ly to disturb n situation so generally
satisfactory, as appears, to the nation,
may well be supposed. as.
Much Is being made Of his pledge
to continue the policies of Mr Nc
kinlcy's administration without
change, This is important to bust
ness Interests rather in respect to the
Hay-Pamccfote negotiations over the
isthmian canal than in respect to any
thing else; for break in the friend
/ ly relations with Great Britain, which
have become so noticcably warm dur
Ing the past -four years, was the one
political possibility held out by the
accession of Mr., Roosevelt to power
which the financial community had
most TO fear, As for reciprocity and
other means Of extending American
commerce, there has never been any
reason to suppose the new president
was not in full accord with the broad,
er views expressed by President Me-
Klnley N has last public address.
An effort IN some quarters is OBJ
seivablc TO find IN the pledge to CON
tnuc the McNluley policy an Implied
assurance that the old cabinet will be
retalned--thc men who are best able
TO interpret to the new president tho
policy OF his predecessor. Thus Sena
tor Platt Of New York Is quoted os
saying he did not believe President
Roosevelt would make any or many
changes in the cabinet, simply he
cause he had said he would continu,
absolutely and unbrokenly the pole,
laid down by Mr., Mckinley This, o.

will not follow, 1t Is easier FOR ,

fair minded workingmen. If it had
had that great help its failure would
have been less assured.
Third. The strike was improvidently
begun, as it was ordered by President
Shaffer at time when the pecunlary
resources of the association were at
n low ebb and wholly inadequate to
sustain the strikers and their families
throughla long struggle.
Fourth The strike was untimely,
begun, for the reason that the working
men were not organized. In fact the
real work OF getting them into the or
ganization did not begin by Shaffer
until after he had issued the strike
order
Fifth. The strike did not have the
support of Il very large proportion of
the strikers, who were satisfied with
IUp WAGES tueN were ItEelNhIS, WIN
their hours OF labor and with the
good understanding which they had
with their employers. A very large
number of them wanted work and
wages, not idlepess and no wages.
Sixth. The strike failed so disas-
trously to the association because of
the stubborn refusal of President
Shaffer to accept the more advanta-
geous terms of settlement offered him
from time to time by the steel trust
Had he accepted the wiser counsel OF
those more sagacious labor leaders,
Gompers, Mitchell and others, some
of whom were able, loyal officers OF
the association, this strike would have
ended in II better way for the strikers
the employers and the community.

THE MARTYR PRESIDENT.

In the midst of sunny waters, 10! the
mighty Ship of State
Staggers, bruised and torn and wound
ed by a derelict of fate,
One that drifted from its moorinSs in
the anchorage Of hate.
On the deck our noble Pilot, in tho
glory of his prime,
Lies in woe-impelling silence, dead
before his hour of time,
Victim of a mind self-centered, and a
goddess fool Of crime.
One of earth's Observation-Disclosures, one
Of Hates unreasoning tools,
In the annals Of the ages, when the
worlds hot anger cools,
lie who sought for Crimes distinction
shall be known as Chief of Fools.
In the annals of the ages, he who had
no thought OF Iame
(Keeping on the path of duty, caring
not for praise or blame),
Close beside the deathless Lincoln,
writ in light, will shine his name.
Youth proclaimed him as hero:
Time, n statesman; Love, a man.
Death has crowned him as a martyr,
so from goal to goal he ran,
knowing all the sum of glory that
a human life may span.
He was chosen by the people; not an
accident of birth
Made him ruler Of n nation. but his
own intrinsic worth
Fools may govern over kingdoms
not Republics of the earth.
He has raised the lovers standard,
by his loyalty and faith,
He has shown how virile manhood
may keep free from scandals
breath.
He has gazed, with trust unshaken, in
the awful eyes Of Death.
In the mighty march of progress he
has sought to do his best.
Let his enemies be silent, as we lay
him down to rest,
And may God assuage the anguish of
one suffering woman's breast.

1t is better, of course, that he should
be himself than try to be somebody
else.
But extensive cabinet changes by a
vice president succeeding to the presi
dency by the death of the president
have their dangers. They tend to diff
ferentiate the new admins ration from
the old, of which properly it is
part, and to create factional feeling,
and opposition and distrust among the
dent Mr.. Arthur changed the Gar
field cabinet entirely, with single
exception, within less than a year Of
his accession, and doubtless felt the
necessity of it by way of allaying a
factional feeling already existing, but
1t did not prove particularly effective
to that end. Mr. Tyler retained Presi-
dent William Henry Harrisons aecre-
tary of state, but changed the rest of
the cabinet within six months Of the
death of Gen. Harrison. This need
not have been cause of his aliena-
| tion of party which followed but it
was no doubt an assisting influence.
Mr.. Fillmore constructed an entirely
new cabinet within three months of
! President Taylor's death in July, 1850,
and most of the work was done with
in IA days of his being sworn in. Mr..
Fillmore lost his hold upon the party
and lost the nomination in 1852, while
the whig party lost itself--but it
would require much straining to at
tribute any measure of these results
TO the cabinet revolution. On the ether
hand the vice president who as presi-
dent had the most trouble with his
party earnestly sought at first to con-
tinue the policy and the cabinet of his
predecessor. Andrew Johnson re-
| ''h'N ttIlu tut ENtC-
retary Of State, the Secretary of the
Treasury and the Secretary of the
Navy whom Lincoln had appointed,
and the rest of the Lincoln Cabinet,
with one exception, was not changed
for more than Il year after Mr.. Lin,
coins death, and then only after the
Republican leaders in Congress had
begun war on johnson.
But the Vice President who thus
succeeds popular President will
probably best consult the unity OF
the party and its undivided loyalty
to himself by making few. if any
changes in the old Cabinet. Mr.. Roose
welt doubtless realizes this. The pres
ent body of Presidential advisers, OF
the whole, is pretty strong one, ant
the likelihood OF any extensive change,
being made therein is not great. Thl!
will be just as well.

secret colporteurs of anarchism flood
the country with anonymous incita-
tions to sedition, in spite of the utmost
police vigilance. With less restraint
upon free speech the anonymity would
disappear, and the preachers of assass-
ination would be more easily discover
ed. n
The question is rs to the punish
ment OF the Anarchists who have
found harbor in the United States.
They should not be expelled merely;
for that would be an infiction Of these
social pests upon innocent people. Nor.
would their Imprisonment for more or
less brief periods lessen their oppor-
tunities for melting to violence and
assassination, The best thing perhaps,
that could be done with this class Of
criminals would be to gather them In
Il penal colony on one of the island
groups Of the Pacific Ocean. Such a
colony might be made an internation-
nj establishment to which could be de-
ported the Anarchists of France, Ger
many and all other civilized countries.
There Herr Most and Emma Gold
man might preach and practice their
doctrines of destruction to their hearts 8
content. The history of the Kilkenney
cats would be nothing to the history
of such colony of anarchists.
Ignorant police authorities confound
the broad distinction between anarch-
ism and Socialism. In France So
cialist (Millerand) is a member Of the
Waldeck Rousseau Ministry. This is
not because of the prevalence of So
ciallsm in France, but because the sup
port of this party was needed in a
crisis of the Republic. Whilst the So
cialists have programme that is at
war with existing systems Of govern
ment, they are not enemies OF public
order They are preaching a Utopia
that is not destined to be realized so
long as human nature shall remain
what 1t is. The anarchists, on the
other hand, are sworn enemies of all
government and all law, and are,
therefore, to be treated as enemies of
society whenever they inculcate their
anti-soclal doctrines. The Socialists
are small in numbers in this country
and the anarchists are still smaller
but there are enough of them to breed
assassins, and hence the necessity
of watching them.
We should, however, profoundly dis
trust those who urge restraints upon
the freedom Of speech as means
of suppressing anarchism. Laws fol
such a purpose could be easily per
vcrted to other ends. In the late Leg
islature of Pennsylvania bill was in
troduced not to suppress the sedtiou,
teachings of anarchism, but to restrain
the liberty Of the press to criticise an,
condemn public men, This would b,
an effort to abolish one evil by tin
creation of a greater evil. There ar
two kinds of anarchism In this coun
try, and they should both be embrace
in the same ban Of public opinion.

Women Seem to Think . Man May BE

Women are proverblally careless
about discussing domestic matters in
public. Two of them were seated in
Chestnut street car yesterday morn
ing, says the Philadelphia Record,
talking about the probabilities of a
marriage between two of their friends.
One said HE is fine man and u
good man" "Oh, yes," replied the
other, but he doesn't go to the the.
ater, he doesn't dance, nor smoke, nor
drink. What would she do with a man
like that?" HE doesn't eat meat or
drink coffee, either" chimed in the
first speaker II should be afraid he
wouldn't be cheerful "Of course, it
doesn't seem kind to criticise a man
for his virtues" said the conservative
woman, but, then, it is n risk to
marry man who is not in touch with
his generation. 1t would be a strain
to live up to his standard" "Wen,
I'm not the one that wants to marry
him" Nor am l." Just then the
conductor called out Fifteenth street,
and they got off, without once. men,
tioning the name of this paragon, to
the great regret of several other wo-
men who had been interested listeners.
Il don't believe there ever was such
man." commented one elderly ma
tron. The others shook their heads
gravely. as though they, too, had their

FAMOUS PEARL NECKLACE.
Sold at Auction to An Enterprising French
Jewelry Dealer.

SOld ~ AuSeioh TO An Fnterprl8ing Uron Al,
Jewelry Dealer.
The famous necklace of the Countess
Castiglione, which has just been sold
at aution to French jewelry dealer
for $S4,3OO, is one of the most beautiful
things of its kind in existence. The
piece consists of 279 pearls, which are
threaded on five strings. Each string
was put up separately and knocked
down to different bids. Gunberg of
Paris succeeding in securing all of
them, thus giving him possession of
the beautiful necklace in its entirety.
The countess was an eccentric charac-
ter. To punish France for having be-
come republic she shut herself up in
her house and never let the light of
day shine on her, contenting herself
with candles and gas. At the same
time she abolished mirrors from her
apartments. and thus spared herself
the pain of looking at her face as it
aged. She was immensely rich.
