N HlGHL4 interesting uiScoN
~ cry has been recently made In
the Eastern Pacific ocean by
one of our revenue cutters. A
considerable herd of fur seals>ha been
found on one or more of the Aleutian
islands. which lie northwest Of Japan.
1t is believed that the indiscriminate
slaughter of the animals on the Pribi-
loft islands has driven them to seek
new breeding grounds. This Is quite
possible, although contrary to the uni
yersal experience of naturalists who
scarcely ever find that the instinct
which leads migratory animals or
birds to seek certain locations for
breeding or feeding purposes Is affected
by mans propensity to the ruthless ex-
termination of feral life wherever he
finds it, Animals do retreat before
change in natural environment. But
this is a slow process. There is time,
usually, for the evolution necessary to
the survival of the fittest and conse-
quently to the perpetuation of the race.
When slaughter by artificial methods
begins, although the animals become
shy, wary, or recluse, the instinct
which leads them to select one situa-
ton above others predomnates over a
tendency, if there is any, to acquire ad-
ditional habits Of self-preservation.
where this is possible, as it is in the
case of the seals, just as it was not so
in the case Of the buffalo.
Yet it seems probable that the herd
which has been discovered in the Aleu-
tian islands is not indigenous. This
chain of barren rocks has been known
to European navigators during the
covery being made. The islands belong
to Japan. 1t is impossible that the
seals ecould have been congregated
there for any length of time without
the knowledge of this inqusitive and
utilitarian race, whose fishermen scour
assumed then Professionally that the
seals are those which formerly bred on
the Pribiloff islands. Although these
prosecuted animals have deserted the
stars and stripes and taken sanctuary
under the chrysanthemum, we are ex-
ceedingly well pleased at the change
of allegiance. The Canadian pirates of
the Behring Sea will now find their oc-
cupation gone. Happily their ruthless
lust for pelts had not time to satiate
itself in the utter eXterminat ton of the
fur seal. The animals are safe under
Japanese protection. If the Canadian
sealers cross the Pacific they will find
that the seal wardens of the Mikado
will not be so complacent in accepting
their Misrepresentation or needless of
the illegality of their fishing methods
as are those Of Uncle Sam.

permitted his charge to escape. The
detective Is charged with being drunk
although he denies IT, The director OF
public safety says his men are "a
warm lot" There Is no question about
that 1t has come, to this that there
are almost as many charges brought
against the police as the police bring
against law-breakers.
Such warm place as Pittsburg
with its "warm lot" of officers Is not to
be envied. There Is no city In the
country which for its population shows
higher degree of crmnality. making
every allowance for the exceptional and
peculiar conditions that prevail there.
This Is undoubtedly partly IL not who'll
ly attributable to the undisciplined and
demoralized condition Of the police
force. There are no better or more
practical Judges of the efficiency Of a
police force than criminals. The GRIM
inals of Pittsburg,' a legionary multi
tude have taken the measure of its
disreputable custodians of law and
order with metrical exactness.

If possible place the muzzle upon the

A Magnificent Record.

v F ANY Republican should at any
time be at loss for reasons for
the faith that is in him he will
find them in the greatest abun-
dance in the Republican Text Book
for the Campaign of 1902" just pub
lished by the authority of the Repub-
lican congressional committee. The
Pittsburg Times says the book is aptly
prefaced with these words of the lam
ented Mckinley: You do not have to
guess what the Republican party will
do. The world knows it's purposes. 1t
has embodied them in law and exc
cuted them in administration" The
contents of the book afford ample evil
dence of the truth of this declaration
1t presents magnificent record Of the
recent achievements Of the Republican
party and of the great benefits which
have flowed to the people of the United
States because it's purposes have been
embodied in law and executed in ad-
ministration.
Under the head of "Protection and
Prosperity" are presented facts and fig
ures which show how the business of the
country was rescued from the depressing
effects of Democratic administration
and brought by the enactment of pro-
tective tariff laws Republican law
makers and officials to the highest
state of prosperity. The record of the
countrys business condition under DEM
ocratic free trade and Republican pro-
lection policies is set forth in a manner
which shows the vast superiority of the
latter.
Under the head of Labor" the
records Of the two parties are set forth
in detail, and again the advantage is
greatly with the Republican, which is
shown not only to have increased the
pay of the wage-earner, but also to
have enacted laws for his benefit in a
manner which is not approached by its
rival. The subject Of 1.-The Trusts" is
exhaustively treated, and again it is
made clear that both in the enactment
of laws for their regulation and in their
enforcement the Republican party is
entitled to first place over it's rival.
An interesting exposition is made in
this connection of the fact that trusts
are by no means indigenous to this
country or the product Of it's protective
legislation, as is SO sedulously claimed
by the free trade organs, but that they
abound in Great Britain, the home of
free trade.
The question of the Philippines is
discussed at length, and facts and
figures are adduced which afford ample
Endorsement for the policy pursued by
the Republican national administration
in regard to the islands. The conduct
of our army is defended and deserved
tribute paid to the men who sustained
the authority of the flag against the
efforts Of. OPEN insurgents in the
field and their cowardly allies on this
side Of the ocean.

Divorce procedure in Lackawanna

sued by an Indiana husband, whose
wife and himself seemed neither able

finally. after a second divorce and re-
marriage in seven years, they drew up
an agreement to the effect that which,
ever one gets angry first, the other
shall have all the property.

@ENATOR HANNA's Chautau-
guam speech is being widely
~ quoted by the papers which
did not join in abuse of him
when more active as chairman of the
Republican national committee. In
presidential campaigns it is fashion,
able to picture him as bloated pluto
crat with dollar marks all over him.
Save Quay, no man has been more
abused than Hanna, and no man de-
serves it less. 1t is but another case
of a great man misunderstood and pur-
sued by ignorant political prejudices.
AS head of the Civic Federation he
is doing more to unite capital and
labor, and to promote the legitimate
rights of labor, than any man in the
land. He Is the leading champion of
voluntary arbitration and points with
pride to the sentiments of honor which
actuated the soft coal miners of four
great states, who have for four COM
secutive years faithfully adhered to
their contracts, and the better to ad-
here to them, unanimously refused to
strike in sympathy with the anthracite
men. Does not this fact open the way
to future peace. Why not reach con-
tracts through friendly arbitration, and
then adhere to them. This looks like a
rational and Just settlement to great
economical problems.
