sCnLEYs APPEAL TO. ROOSEVELT.

The people of the country will re-
gard the action of President Roose-
Welt in consenting to partially reopen
the Schley case, as an indication tha'
he has not entirely surrendered his Ia
dependence and sense Of justice to tie
naval ring. headed by Secretary Long
Inc President did not act with the
promptness the people expected ot
him. He should have taken action at
the time that Long with indecent
haste accepted the report OF the
majority OF the Court Of Inquiry as
official. and informally snubbed Ad-
m!ral Dewey.
1t was said of the late Pr'*,den;
Mckinley that he always kept his
ear on the ground to hear the ?nur-
mur of the people. 1t would be a
wholesome practice II President
Roosevelt would adopt the same
custom. If the Presidents ear were
within hailing distance OF the ground
for a month past he would have heard
roars from the people that he could
not regard otherwise than ominous.
A week or ten days ago the Presi-
dent according to those who had au-
thority to give utterance to his senti-
ments was of the opinion that every
thing connected with the outrage on
Schley should be allowed to drop" 1t
was unfortunate that he had not
reached that conclusion before his
censure of General Miles. That the
President should be anxious to drop
the consideration of that episode may
be readily understood. 1t almost made
Miles a hero.
AS an effort at suppression the let
ter to Miles has proved a brilliant
failure 1t gave new turn to the
whole controversy, raising questions
of authority even more comprehensive
than those involved in tie treatment
of Admiral Schley Nor can the abrupt
telegraphic removal of Maclay be said
to have mitigated the situation. Maclay
should have been removed at the time
of his offending and for the fiagran;
offense which he committed. He was
not removed for that cause, but be-
cause he refused to send in his resig-
nation when tardily requested and
thus defied the Presidential will.
That Mr. Roosevelt should at any
time have thought ,Aat he could make
the country forget the wrong to Schley
by forDldding any allusion to ii, was
not entirely creditable to his judg-
ment. and his consent to entertain an
appeal from Schley now will not soften
the situation. The manner in which he
went about 10 enforce his prohibition
of discussion was stlll less so. The
affront to Dewey and the insult to
Miles are now added to the original
wrong as haunting scandals that vii.
not down. 1t is not merely that the pop
ularity of these officers is measured
against the Presidents own high claim
to personal esteem, but that the rcsular
course of law and order and of de-
corOus procedure appeals against the
undisciplined impulse of autocratic
power. Even If people could be for
hidden to talk of this, it would all
the more compel them to think.
1he decision of the President t.
entertain an appeal from Schley is
more of a tribute to the power of
public opinion than to the Presidents
sense of Justice OF Mr.. Roosevelt's
measurement of right and wrong we
will have an opportunity to judge
later.

AS TO POLITICAL ACTION.
Those Not in Classified Service
Have Most Privilege.
MR.. FOULKE EXPLAINS LAW
The President of the CIVIL Service
Commission Addresses Il letter to
OncehOIders and Tells Them Just
How Far They Can 90.

Washington, Aug. 3O.-Acting Presi-
dent Foulkc, of the civil service COM
mission, has addressed 4 cOmmunca-
ton to all the executive departments
in regard To the part ofliceholders
may take in politics. Attention is
called to an order issued by Presi-
dent Cleveland. July ii, 1896, contain
ing the following:
THE influence of federal office
holders should not he felt in the
manipulation of political primary
meetings and nominating conven-
tions. The use by these officials Of
their positions to compass their Sc
lection as delegates to political con-
ventions is indecent and unfair, and
proper regard for the proprieties and
requirements of official place will
also prevent their assuming the ac-
tive conduct of political campaigns"
The communication states that this
order has never been repealed, but
has been declared by President
Eoosedent Roosevelt to be still in
force. In constituting it, however,
there is a distinction, Mr.. Foulke
says, to be made between officers and
employees who are in the classified
service and those who are not. The
letter states that those VINO are out
side the classified service are chosen
largely with reference to political
consideration and as a rule are and
expect to be changed with change
of parties, but in the classified sery-
ice the choice is made without re-
gard to political consideration and
tenure of office is unaffected by the
change of parties.
In consideration of this. the COM
munication says, the man in tho
classified service, while retaining his
right to vote as he pleases and to
express privately his opinion on all
political subjects, should not take an
active part in political management
or in political campaigns, for the
same reason that a judge or an army
officer is debarred from taking such
a part.
In regard TO those who are not in
the classified service, the communica-
tion says the limitations are not so
strict, but even in this case Office
holders must not use their offices to
control political movements, or CO..
cree the political actions of em-
ployes. They must not neglect their
public duties and must not cause pub
lie scandal by their activities.

An advertising agent for an up
state dry goods house told the fol-
lowing story to a
writer for the New
York Post, of how
he got rid of a dozen ladies' coats
that were two seasons old: During
the early winter a year ago our
firm purchased a lot of jackets in
New York of new cut that prom
Used to be popular. They had no
particular name, and we simply ad-
Yertised them with the rest of our
coats and jackets as the latest style
and cheap at $15. The coats, dozen
III number, hung on the models in our
cloak department all winter, and no
one paid any attention to them. 1t
was impossible for the saleswomen
to get any one interested enough in
them to even try one on, and as
spring opened, the manager came to
me and told me to advertise them
at ten dollars, and see if we could
not sell at least one or two. | adj
vertised them at ten dollars, and put
large placards on them, noting the
reduction. Still the coats remained
on the models, and in a week | re-
duced them to eight dollars. This
met with no better success than~fhe
previous reduction, and / reduced
thanl -
small price failed to bring a pur-
chaser, the manager became disgust
ed, and laid the coats away until
fall. They were then advertised at
ten dollars, with the intention of
selling them at any price to get rid
of them. They hung in the cloak
room until the middle of winter,
and the firm was about giving up
hope of ever selling the coats, when
1T occurred to me that what they
needed was a name. ] thought that
'Trilby' would do, and advertised
them the following morning as the
new "Trilby" coat. The latest thing
out. All the rage in fashionable New
York sets. \ big bargain at SIS |
had not the slightest idea that they
would sell at this price, and made it
high so as to reduce and make the
cut look large. That name caught,
however, and inside of week we
had sold all the coats, the firm maxi
ing larger profit than they had
even desired

FORTS MUST BE READY.
Coast Defenses to Rs Placed I'm n Po-
sItIon for Immediate action In Case
of Danger.

of Danger.
Another step toward putting coast
defcnses in an efficient condition will
be taken in n few days. Gen. w. +.
Randolph, chief of artillery of the
army, who was president of the
board which recently attempted to
examine the gun carriages at coast
forts, has made a recommendation
which he believes will have practical
results. He has suggested that an
order be issued from the war depart
ment to the effect that all command
ers at forts be required to keep the
gun mechanism in good order and to
have the officers and men onstantly
in training.
TO do this he has urged that he be
allowed to designate the periods Of
target practice with great guns at
various forts. He proposes that not
more than one days notice will be
given when such target practice will
commence. Gen. Randolph says that
this will serve to keep the forts in
an efficient condition. Post COM
manders will not care to run the risk
of being caught with their guns out
of order and their men out of train
lux. Ilt DtItNtS lldJ - BOuto IlO-
tice is sufficient if post commanders
do their duty.
Under the prospects of being called
upon on such short notice to do inn
portant work. which will demon
strate the efficiency of a post fort,
the commanding officers will be COM
PEELED to maintain a state of readi-
ness. If such a system prevailed,
Gen. Randolph has pointed out to the
departmental authorities that it
would not be possible for a board of
inspectors to visit n coast fort and
find the mechanism displaced, and, as
was the case at one post some of the
tools necessary in the operation of
the guns lost beyond recovery short
of many hours search.
This evidence of carelessness has
been impressed upon the official OBJ
servers recently, and they are deter
mined that some energetic measures
shall be introduced so as to keep the
coast Notifications in a state of eff
cheney. They insist that the guns
should be ready on the shortest no.
tice or the function of the coast fort
will be lacking

KILLS HAY FEVER,
Physicians Claim that Heavy Rainfall
Decreases Prevalence of tho DIs-

eu8es
Unless sudden drought descends
on this region there will be no hegira
of hay fever sufferers from Illinois
this summer. The continued wet
weather, which has been an annoy
ance to many people, will turn out a
benefactor to hosts of others, ac-
cording to the opinion of physicians,
who predict that the heavy rains will
act as an effectual preventive of the
annual hay fever ATTACKS, says the
Galesburg Oll.) Evening Mail
This condition of affairs will have
its effect on hotel keepers at the
northern lake resorts. Every Au-
gust thousands of unfortunate vic
tins of hay fever seek relief in the
woods, where they can find company
for their misery, and escape the COM
ments OH tthss::1T personal appearance
which heartless immunes take every
opportunity to make. Several hum
dreds of the victims who throng the
small lake and beach resorts of up
per Michigan each year go from Chi
cago. Most of the others make the
journey northward by way of Chi
cago, and the steamship companies
reap n rich harvest all during Au-
gust from the increased amount of
travel, for ma2y of the best places
of refuge are inaccessible save by
boats.
Heavy beating transforms drive the

cases which will develop this year un-
der present conditions will be con-
fined to those caused by other agen-
cies than flower pollen. Local nasal
deformities and asthmatic tendencies
will bring on the dread aflliction to
many people but the majority of the
annual victims are destined to escape
unless it stops raining.

The father of the young lady most
concerned has just preferred charges
Ro against an officer
Of the L Il e d
States army for
having broken an engagement of
marriage. 1t is probable that he
acted in ignorance of the precedent
set by the war department in Il re
cent similar instance, when it was
ruled that no action could be taken
unless "unbecoming conduct" was al
legged. The instructive feeling will
be, of course, that the girl was shah
billy treated; but is the instinct a
just one? Or, as the New York
World asks, is it, like so many So
cial beliefs, a mere survival of times
when conditions were different?
Suppose that a young man who has
become engaged finds that he no
longer loves the woman he has won.
Is il fair to her to permit her to go
to the altar with him believing tnat
his affection has not altered? Has
he a right to risk her future happi-
ness by imposing upon her lovcless
marriage? The writers
have but one answer to such a ques-
tion. The man must act a lie and
go to the altar like a hero unless
extricated by happy accident. But
is that solution fair to the woman
in the case? Is it one that u truly
self-respccting woman would accept?
