Dreaming of a Restored Poland,

The conviction of some Polish students
at Posen, who were charged with treason
able participation in a movement to re-
establish the kingdom of Poland, has
made public the fact that the Polish
hope of independence has not been aban-
doned. More than a century has gone
by since. the great crime of the partition
of Poland between Russia, Austria and
Prussia was perpetrated, but although
national independence was drowned in
blood and consumed in flames, there has
always been deep in Polish hearts faith
in its ultimate resurrection.
Seventy years ago the Poles made des-
perate effort for the restoration Of their
nation. but the result was the suppress
sion of the inSurreetiOn and the abolition
of even the shadoWy form of national
life That part of Poland which had been
taken by Russia in the previous partition
was then definitely absorbed into the
Russian empire. and the Poles were
thenceforth Russians. Thirty years later
they again struck for freedom, and dur
ing nearly the whole period when the
United States was torn by civil war
and drenching it's soil with blood to main
tain its undivided national existence the
Poles kept up a determined but hopeless
struggle for independence against the
mighty power of Russia. When our own
War for the preservation of the Union
ended Poland lay crushed and helpless
at the feet of it's grim conaueror. Since
then it has not been able to lift hand
for freedom. It's people have, so far as
they were able, sought in other lands the
liberty they were denied at home. A re-
deemed and regenerated Poland seemed
to have faded away even from patriotic
dreams.
But the trials just concluded have re-
vealed the fact that the dream has not
entirely faded. There is a Polish reyolu-
tionary fund in Switzerland to which Pol
iSh students at home contribute. Pol
ish propaganda is at work, and the time
is awaited when the great powers are
once more at each others threats That,
it is hoped, will furnish Poland's oppor-
tunity and the national standard will be
once more raised.

THE W4T OF colHMERcE.

The announcement was made in the
fish government had decided to send the
Australian mails to and from Europe by
way of the American continent, rather
than, as heretofore, through the Suez
canal The report has been supplement-
ed by the assurance that the German and
French governments intend to pursue the
same course in the carriage of the mail
to and from their possessions in the
South Pacific ocean.
It is strange that the significance OF
this new development in marine conf
merce has attracted so little attention
among Americans. The heads of great
transcontinentaI transportation agencies
very readily in few cases recognized the
significance of the announcement; but
to the ordinary observer of the progress
of events it has seemed to carry no spe-
cial meaning.
It would be well if some of those news
paper writer's who are now allowing
themselves to grow hysterical and mad
maudlin over recent developments in the
railroad industry would take a map of
the world and look into what is involved
in this new departure. Let them reflect
but a moment on what 1t carries with it
of encouragement and hope to the people
of the Pacific coast, who, in their effort
to build up and populate the grand do
main which is theirs, will be the chief
benefciaries of the great movement to-
ward improved and cheaper transcon-
tinental railroad service which is now
in progress.
The currents of international trade
change almost with each generation The
opening of the Suez canal re-effected it's
own revolution, just as did the establish
ment of transcontinenta1 railroad routes
on this continent Holland and Venice
and Rome have each had its day; Eng
land is having and has had hers, in the
control of the commerce of the world.
The day of the American republic is here.
The sending of the Australian mails by
way of this continent is one expression
of the union of occident and Orient
which is being forced into existence by
the resistless power of human progress.
If it is true that trade follows the fiag,
it is equally true that trade follows the
mail For the mail goes with the flag,
and points the way for trade.
No more important circumstance has
arisen for many years affecting the
movement of the worlds trade with ref
erence to the participation in it of this
people than is involved in the simple
announcement that the route finally
chosen. between Europe and the antipodcs
for the conveyance of European. mail is
across the American continent.

SMOKE Hin OUT.

Aid. Dobner has taken a step which
is demanded by every consideration of
self-respect which should animate all
public officials. He is a member of
public body the official rectitude of the
members of which has been pulicly chal-
lenged by his fellow alderman, Hunt.
There are men in every walk of life
who seek to win a reputation for them
selves of Spartan-like virtue by assail-.
ing the rectitude of those around them.
They are numerous in politics outside of
the Democratic party The alderman
from the Eleventh ward is one of them,
and he is outside of the Democratic party.
Every member of the council both Re
publican and Democratic should stand by
the resolutions as offered. This man VINO
is solcertain of the corruption or corrupt
ibilty of everybody but himself should be
made to prove his charges, or submit to
having them thrust down his throat.
T h e G. OBJ does not share the belief
that Hunt may be impeached. Even if he
were. no greater discredit could be
brought upon him than now belongs to
him as the result of his attitude toward
those 10 whom he owes his appearance In
municipal public life. But he should in
this case be made to avow that he had
slandered his associates without having
solitary circumstance within his knowI-
edge which would justify his imputations
Neither party nor personal obligation
has been sacred to the accuser in this
case in his career in politics. He has
sought throughout to extenuate his own
treason to friends and supporters alike
by appealing to his own rectitude and to
others unworthiness. He has imposed on
some. persons by his pretensions; and he
has given currency to the conviction
that those around him in the council are
merely set OF corrupt tricksters. whom
the city railway or any other business
interest may buy and pay for at any
time.
If there are such characters in the
council the public wants to know it. The
chief value of Mr.. Dobner's resolutions
in that they will force Hunt to give names
or to admit that he did not hesitate %
try to blacken the characters of those
with whom he was in daily association,
and whose regulations would be as dear
TO him as his own if he had a spark Of
personal loyalty in his makeup.

On the occasion of the accession Of

The Clio b e took occasion to express
the opinion that Democrats would make
a great mistake if they calculated on
the blunders which he was likely to
make to promote Democratic success.
The warning will quite probably prove
to be well founded and fully warranted.
AS neat a piece of politics as could
Eave been transacted by any executive
officer has just been consummated by
President Roosevelt in his own state
He has turned a political trick there
which was fraught with danger, and
which a man of less steady nerve would
not have attempted.
Collector Bidwen of New York has
been an exceptionally valuable official
He is also a very skillful and inhuen-
tial politician, who in Office has been
able to hold his grip on the machine
while meeting the requirements of the
civil service refornlers. There has been
demand for Bidwells removal. 1t has
been ardently backed by the politicians
of many of the most influential counties
in the state outside of New York. But
BidwelI was backed by the machine.
Both Platt and odell swore by him,
Yet the opposition to him was strong,
first because he was a New York city
man, and secondly because he had arous-
ed bitter antagenisms in connection with
the administration of his Office.
