POLITICAL COMMENT.

The tragic events of the last four years
have proved beyond doubt that in dan
ger or calamity this nation knows no
divisions.-Ja Ilmes-ohloh-
All who overthrow the law are aids OF
anarchy The law and anarchy are oppo-
sites and forever at war. To asSail one
is to assist the other.-Nashville Banner.
1t is to be hoped that the enquiry now
going on as to the conduct of Admiral
Schley before Cienfuegos and Santiago
will go far enough to take the roof from
the ring in the Navy Department-Cin-
cinnau Enquirer.
Mr.. Ridgely. of Illinois. the new Comp
troller of the Currency, falls heir to a
problem: Who got the depostors' money
from the Seventh National Bank?-New
York World.
1t is expected that it will require some
time for the mills affected by the recent
steel strike to catch up with their orders
and for normal conditions as to deliveries
and prices to be restored. In the mean
time domestic consumers will pay the
cost and our export trade in the mill
products will suffer loss.-San Antonio
Express.
Senator Allison expresses the opinion
that Congress will take action at its next
session on the suppression of anarchy in
the limited States. and on the protection
of fhe President from such assaults as
thar from which Mr. Mckinley fell vic
tim. 1t cannot fail to do so. The coun-
try irnperatively demands no less.-Phiia-
delphia Inquirer.
The Washington times., 1901-09-24

can see at a glance that they reach
away beyond the mere ratification OF
the reciprocity treaties which have al
ready been negotiated. If Mr.. Mckin-
ley was right, and he certainly was,
many more such treaties should be en-
tered into, and every unjust RESTRICTION
upon our trade with foreign countries
should be removed. If little reciproci-
ty is good more of it is better, and uni
versal reciprocity is practically free
trade We must suppose that Mr. NC
Kinley fully understood the signlhcahee
of the arguments he was using. and 1t
will therefore be most interesting TO
observe how far President Roosevelt
will be willing to travel along the me
of his predecessors thought on the sub
iect of the tariff-always an important
one but doubly so now, in view of the
manner in which it interweaves itseI
with the trust problem.

VIEWS OF AN OHIO DEMOCRAT.
J. l.. TrauTer Believes McKinley's
Death Makes Votes for Nash.

]. L. Trauger, of Columbus, Ohio, who
Is quite factor in Democratic State poll
tics as the editor of the 'Westbote," the
leading Democratic German paper in that
section of Ohio. has been in Washington
for several days. returning yesterday to
his home.
Democrats and Republicans alike"
said Mr.. Trauger yesterday morning, de
plore the sad tragedy which has cost the
nation its President and foremost citizen,
and the State of Ohio its favorite SON.
Ohioans of all political complexion were
proud to claim Mr.. Mckinley as a native
of Ohio, and his loss is keenly felt. Fur
ther than that, not only Republicans, but
Democrats in Ohio had much to be CRATE
full to him for in the way of official pre-
ferment. He will be sorely missed as the
benefactor of numerous fellow Ohioaus.
"One result of the death or Mr.. McKin-
ley has been the cementing of the politi-
cal forces. which favor the election of the
Republican candidate for Governor of the
and in a measure was President McKin-
leyS choice. Many independent voters
who wavered before, now believe that it
is Incumbent upon them to vote for Mr.
Nash as a compliment to the wish of the
dead President
Mr. Nash, however, is not a statesman,
and his opponent. Colonel Kilbourne. is
much his superior, Intellectually and in
practical political experience. The Dem
ocrats still feel confident of accomplish
ing his election. The party could not
have selected better candidate"
Mr.. Trauger is considered an authority
on the political affairs of his State. He
has been a lifelong Democrat. and his
views on the political situation in Ohio
are worthy of attention at all times.

PAY FOR TIME EXTENSION.
A Decision JustifyinS Charges for
Extra Superintendent

Tie Comptroller of the Treasury on Au-
gust goth was requested by Lieut. Col
Charles j. Allen. Corps of Engineers, u.
S. A, to give decision in regard TO the
claim of the Central Contracting Com
pany for the refund, or remission, of Ger
tain charges against them for expenses of
superintendent and inspection. The
charge was made under a contract be-
tween that company and the United
States for the reconstruction of Pier No.
of the Aqueduct Bridge at Georgetown,
d. C.
The contract was entered into May Il,
1899, and was approved by the Chief of
Engineers May 26. 1888. Work was to be
commenced under the contract on or be-
fore May 10 and completed on or before
November So 1899. The date for compile
tion has been extended by authority of
the Chief of Engineers as follows:
To July 81, 1900, to November 80. 1900. to
January 81, 1901, to March 81, 1901. to May
81. 1901, and to July Is, 1901. All of these

provisions of section 50 of the specifica-
tions attached to and forming part of the

which the sum of s.. 9S has already been
deducted from payments made to the
contractors, and the remainder tSl,5oU Is
to be deducted when the final payment Is
made. The company asks to be relieved
of all the charges for superintendent and
inspection.
L. P. Mitchell, Assistant Comptroller of
the Treasury, after a thorough review Of
the points involved, said:
There having been no abrogation of
the contract as it originally existed, or a
modification of its terms by. new con-
tract because of the extensions of time
given. the obligations of the parties to
said original contract remain in force.
..It must be concluded, therefore. that
inasmuch as the contractors failed to
complete the work within the time speci-
fed in the contract, they are clearly Ia
bic for all damages caused by the delay
after the time specified therein for the
completion of the work. including the ex-
pense of the inspection and superintend-
ence, and the amount thereof should be
deducted from the amount otherwise due

In his direct examination yesterday
before the Court Of Enquiry, Lieutenant
Commander Heilner, who was navlsat-
ing officer of the Texas in the sea bat
tie off Santiago, stated that in eXecut-

one hundred or one hundred and fifty

was compelled to reverse her engines
to avoid collision. On his cross-eAam-

was forced to make admissions which,

Brooklyn at no time was within twen-
ty-four hundred feet of the Texas.

omission of any mention Of the alleged

PROTECTING THE PRESIDENT.

From President Roosevelt's free move
ments about the streets and roads of the
Capital it is evident that he holds to the
views he expressed few days after Mr..
Mckinley was shot-tkat personal precau-
tions on the part of the President are use
less and unwise. In his personal courage
and impatience of restraint he disdains
caution and refuses to admit that there Is
a distinction between the safety of Theo-
dore Roosevelt and the safety of the Pres
ident. He carries to the extreme Mon
taigne's theory expressed in the essay
on the modes of rulers in dealing with
plotters. I'm a life of ambition and
glory" says Montaigre. 1T is necessary
