Five years are given In which to complete
the works planned in these bills. This
means n long period of confusion. perhaps
of partially delayed traffic. obstructed
streets and naturally increased danger at
the exposed points. The Commissioners
have the power of regulation and should
exercise 1t to the end that these five years
may not be marked by unnecessary
slaughter The danger points must be
doubly guarded, unreliable barriers must
be replaced with better ones, even though
their use be but temporary. Now that the
railroads have driven a hard bargain they

Those at all familiar with the character
of the Filipino leaders sequestered in Ma
Mia. either in prison or on parole. were not
surprised when it was announced that Gen.
Macarthur had, with the permission OF the
War Department, deported a number Of the
worst agitators to Guam. Nevertheless
those in the Senate opposed to the retention
of the islands felt impelled to ask for in
formation. particularly as to the deporta-
ton of Mabini. That Information is now
submitted to the Senate. in terms which
justifies the act and which furthermore
throws some light on the general situation
in the islands. Mabini. the principal figure
among these exies. is clearly a dangerous
man to remain In Manila while there are
Insurgents in the field or in preparation for
hostilities Gen. Macarthur describes him
in terms to commend the act of deportation
as wise and In the interests of a humane
solution of the Philippines problem. Gen
Otis held the same view of Mabini. In the
course Of an interview with the editorial
correspondent of The Star in Manila, jan
uary /. 1900. Gen. Otis said:
.'Mabini was the master spirit. able. radi-
al. uncompromisirg. He furnished the

put my freedom to any use. he replied
This uncompromising character has been
detected. 1t appears from the official dis
patches now promulgated communicating
secretly with the enemy and fomenting
rebellion. He is dangerous in Manila, even

The same appears true In somewhat less
degree of others who have been exiled.

reasons for the expulsion from Manila of

political. but, upon proof, could have been
sufficiently punished In the courts as are

The method of solution Is by no means

But II has come to be a recognized fact

The Whipping Post.
From the Pittsburg Dispatch.

Something may be said on both sides of

the other hand. there are crimes to which
no other punishment is quite SO well suited

Dispensary Law is Profitable.
From the indianapolis Press.

South Carolina has found its liquor-dis-
pensary law very profitable. The dispen-
sary law went into operation in 1894 under
an appropriation Of $4,000 by the state
and this has been refunded, an equal
amount invested in real estate and stock
valued at S25OOOO is paid for and kept from
diminution. The total profits on sales for
the past year are S474 ,17S, of which the
state gets $176,O12 for the public schools
and the profit accruing to towns and cities
Of the state Is S29S 1855. In addition to pro-
noting public order, the dispensary system
appears to have decided financial advan-
tages for the state where 1t is In operation.

The Anti-SpittfnE Ordinance.

The way to make laws effective Is to en-
force them. The mere presence of a notice
forbidding splitting in street cars Is not ef-
fective in itself. so long as the conductor
does not call the attention Of offenders to
1t. 1t requires action in order to impress
upon the travelling public that they must
have respect for others and respect for the
law. even though they have no respect for
themselves. To have respect for the COM
fort Of others Is the natural instinct of a
gentleman. If respect for others cannot be
secured by moral suasion then some other
method must be adopted.
