some instances of cruelty or immortality?
What was the purpose of the opposition in
bringing these individual cases Of misbe-
hayior or improperly or cruelty to light?
To punish those persons? To rebuke them
BY no means. 1t was done to bring dis
credit upon the army system, to show by
inference if not by direct accusation that
the army authorities. by failing to proper
ly punish and effectively prevent these out
RACES, was lin cahoots'' with the murder
ers, incendiaries, rapists and thugs wear
ing the American uniform in the Philip
pines.
Mr.. De Almond has exposed the weak
ness of the whole opposition by his futile
attempt to draw a distinction. He has
shown that his associates in the minority
are hard pressed for arguments against the
retention of the islands. They must run to
the filth bucket for ammunition. They must
seek out the army as a target. They must
try to obscure the real issues of the scuttle
policy which they advocate by befouling
the atmosphere with reek. 1t would have
been better, manlier, safer, to stick by the
direct charge that the army in the Philip
pines, meaning thereby the government,
has been guilty of gross cruelty. Then the
people would have had respect at least for
an honest fighter, even though his cause
is wrong.

The Soldier. Not the ARMY.

Representative De Almond yesterday in
the House asserted that the opposition To
The policy of retaining the Philippines had
not been guilty OF critcsing the army
while condemnng the actions of certain
soldiers and officers He attempted to draw
the fine line of distinction between rebuI-
ing individuals and disparaging a system.
This Is easy to say. but hard to prove,
II Will be extremely difficult to persuade
The people at large that there is any diff
ference whatever. A close scrutiny of the
speeches made in the Senate by members of
the opposition will by TO means serve to
justify the De Almond definition. The
army was an aggregation of cruel mon
sterS. of child-slayers. of woman-violators,
OF home-burners. of brigands. OF murderers.
The officers were wrOng-headed and malev-
olent. The men were licentious and thiev-
.sh and blood-t thirsty. The riot of pillage
and slaughter was condoned by the higher
authorities at Manila and not rebuked by
those at Washington. Smith. .HelI-Roar-
ing Jake" was merely the agent of a
system. Waller was the personal exponent
Df vicious policy. Chafse. a fiend incar-
nate in spirit, was the type of the admins
tration. The army was rotten to the core.
Many variations of this theme were sung
In the Senate and echoed in that small
section of the press which persists in mis-
reading the situation and the popular mind.

tatton army method of forcing unwilling

The boiler owners petition for the writ
ing of the margin of tolerance into the law
itself. so that 1t will not be subject to fluc-
tuations. They bring expert testimony to
bear to support their plea for trebling of
the limit. They have acted in good faith
in an effort to obey the law, have in some
cases spent large sums in the changing OF
furnaces only to find themselves subject
later to heavy fines. They are entitled to
the relief they ask in the form Of the
amendment now awaiting action by the
Senate. This relief is the more essential
in view of the course of the decisions wild
ening the powers of the health officers as
sistants and rendering the boiler owners
still more subject to their personal views
and to the possibility of their errors.

Action Against the Anarchists.

The authorities of Paterson, N. J., have
been commercially active since last weeks
riots among the strikers and anarchist
there, not only in suppressing the disturb
ances, but also in pursuing the leaders of
the mob and the agitators. Yesterday as
result of a reQuisition upon the New
ork officials for the arrest of William
Mact9ueen, the anarchist editor who melted
the riot. that precious person was taken
into custody and is now held without bail
for shipment to New Jersey for trial. The
precise nature of the charge against him
remains undetermined as it depends upon
the result of the injuries inflicted by the
mob upon newspaper reporter and a po-
llceman in Wednesdays fighting. If either
of them dies MacQueen will be accused of
murder: otherwise he will be arraigned
under the state law against anarchism and
its PRONUNCIATION, a statute which remains
to be tested.
A peculiar feature of MacQueen's arrest
IS the fact that there Is bitter feeling
against him in Paterson, and that he is
now expressing his hope that the laws
powers will suffice when he is taken there,
to protect him from lynchers. The man
who so recently denounced the law, who
invoked the wrath of the people upon all
forms of government trembles today lest
the object of his denunciation should be
unable to save his life from the very crea-
ture he once so loudly praised.
1t is to be hoped that there will be no
slip in the process of giving this blatant
demagogue taste of the law. If he con-
sidered himself an oppressed slave while
free he should be permitted to Judge of
what slavery means under the lash of an
outraged government. His conviction of
murder, should victim of the mob's fury
die. would be one of the most wholesome
proceedings ever known in an American
court. But the process should not stop
there. There We're many others guilty
equally with him. The drag-net should not
be checked until every individual known to
have participated in the rioting and partic-
ularly the arousing of the mob has been
given chance to experience the rigors of
the despised law.

The Smoke-Law Amendment.

The smoke-law decision by the Court of
Appeals handed down yesterday, does not
alter the situation which has existed ever
since that court rendered its first opinion
affirming the validity of the law as inter-
preted by the Police Court The case was
carried up on appeal on an issue of the adj
mission of certain testimony. which the
court declared to be pertinent and proper.
In short the court held as it has in other
cases. that the law is to be applied liber-
ally as far as the prosecution is concerned,
but strictly against the interests of the
defendants. The testimony of inspectors is
10 De received freely. This means that
until amended in the direction of greater
range of smoke permissbility, the boiler
owner is at the mercy of the inspector,
whose count of the seconds against the Of
Tending stack cannot be questioned. The
pending amendment to the smoke law pro-
poses that it shall be lawful for a stack to
emit smoke for a three-minute period, to
permit proper stocking. The Star believes
that this amendment should be forthwith
adopted. The course of the courts deci-
sions renders its necessity the greater
1t has been found in practice that it is
exceedingly difficult to stoke furnace so
as to prevent the emission of smoke for a
longer period than one minute. This is the
limit of time which the health officer has
ventured to set, in the face of the exact
terms of the statute, which prescribe the
emission of dense smoke for any length Of
time whatever. The sole issue today be-
tween the boiler owners and the health Of
ficer relates to the sufficiency of the period
Of tolerance. The health officer declares
that one minute is enough. The boiler own
ers assert that they need three minutes to

that the health officers Interpretation Is
