MR.. SHAW MAKES A POINT.

The inconsistency of trying to make
a political issue of the army abuses in
the Philippines was tersely expressed
by Mr.. Leslie M. Shaw, Secretary of
the Treasury, in his address before the
republican convention held at Port
land, Me-, recently. Let it be I'M
derstood," he said, ':elther that the &C.
complishments of the army the past five
years have been republican achieve
ments, else let the honors which have
been many, and the lapses, which have
been few. be borne by u patriotic peo-
pie without regard to party and with
out undue exploitation AS it is
wholly improbable that the democratic
leaders will concede the fine record of
the army and navy since the beginning
of the Mckinley administration has
been a record of party uccess it should
be regarded as equally unfair and in
consistent to trace the isolated short
comings and abuses in the army to a
party source and a party responsibility.
The sins of partisan politics are
many. but in a general way the worst
of them is the willingness, even the
determination, of many leaders to make
issues of subjects that should not be
unduly enlarged upon, and to confuse
responsibility for the sake of political
effect. A d~isingenuous policy is in.
effective in itself, and it also COM
promises the force of just and vital
issues. when they r honestly pre-
sented. Partisan u%nfairness has so
permeated political management in
this country that an obvious fact is apt
to be accepted as only half a truth
when it reaches the public through
political channels.
