Nope Green, whose wife had sent him the
choicest product of her quilting frame to

TO them:

A SUCCESSFUL ADMINISTRATION.

.COmmander-in-Ch Torrance's admin
istration of his high Office has proved a
most fattering success. The order made
no mistake when it placed him at the
head. He is able, genial, cultivated, and
makes friends for himself and the Grand
Army wherever he goes. Thoroughly de-
voted TO the principles and interests of the
veterans, he represents them most ably
and satisfactorily, for he is thinker and
speaker of 4 high order, and commands
universal attention and respect. We have
every reason to be very proud of him, and
what he has accomplished, since the gayel
was handed TO him at Cleveland.
We have been no less fortunate in the
Adjutant-General's Office. Comrade Tow
Ter is a thorough business man, active and
efficient, and has kept his Office up TO date
with great success.

A NEW SEAL BILL,

The destruction of seals in Alaskan
| waters continues to be scandal to our
Government. 1t is our plain duty to dc
| something at once and radical.
| a few years ago the Nation was arous.
ed on the subject. ard Il strong majority
WAS in favor of declaring Boring Sea Il
closed sea. and stopping the depredations
of the pelagc seulers by actual force.
| without any reference to what other Ma
tons might think of it. This WAS the
only effective course. because while Oth.,r
Nations condemned the cruel and wicked
practice of peiaGic sealing. they would
do nothing to stop it. and Great Britain
was moved by the clamors of the Cana
dams who were making money by pelagic
sealing to protest vigorously against our
claim that the Boring Sea was American
waters. which we could police and control.
The result was 'modus yivendi' which
has proved to be no barrier whatever to
intercepting the seals on their annual re-
turns to the Pribylof Islands, and slaugh-
tering them with ruthless indiscrimina-
tioiI-the gravid mother seals. with their
unborn young. along with the males of
every age and condition. Last week the
House Committee on Ways and Means
favOrably reported a drastic bill, the pre-
amble of which recites that the regrIla-
tons made in pursuance of the findings
of the Boring Sea tribunal ''have utterly
failed to SO protect and preserve these
herds from indecent killing and ruinous
diminution of life after seven years Of
faithful enforcement"
Also, that this killing of 10000 or
10000 mother seals at sea by alien hunt
ers every year entails the cruel and indie
cent starvation to death on the islands of
10000 to $4,000 young or pup seals every
September and October" The bill empow-
ers the President to conclude negotiations
with Great Britain for review of the
regulations in order ito preserve the fur
seal industry of Alaska for the good of
all mankind and abate the shameful or
der of killing now permitted and conduct
ed
Pending the. negotiations the bill au-
thoriZes a modus yivendi prohibiting the
killing Of seals except for native food. In
the event that the preservation of the
herd is not secured at the opening of the
pelagic season of 1902 authority is given
to kill all the male and female seals on
the Pribylof Islands, with the exception
Of 10000 females and LOGO males.
This brings us back to where we were
eight or 10 years ago. We made great
diplomatic mistake then in receding from
our contention that Boring Sea was Amer
lean wafer, which it was our right and
duty to control. The only way that the
seal herd can be protected from brutal
determination is by assuming such con-
troll, and it is our duty to the rest of the
world to do it. The proposal to kill off
the seals ourselves is weak, evasive and
un-American.

VETERANS. PREFERENCE SUSTAINED.

Judge Horrick, of the New York SUI
preme Court. has rendered an important
decision sustaining the Veterans Prefer
ence Law. ard brushing aside various
subterfugrs by which its operation was
attempted to be defeated.
The case WIS that of John G.. Pratt.
Assistant Engineer in the Troy Pumping
Works. against Commissioner Phelan.
Pratt claimed that he had been discharged
or rather. indefinitely >suspcndcd' in VIC,
lation of law, and for political reasons.
The report of the case says:
The Justice further refused all the re-
quests because it appeared by concessions
in OF rn court that Pratt was an honorably
discharged soldier. had been employed for
pcr'o! of years in the water works de-
par;ment: that it was permanent. and he
was continuously engaged. He was trans
ferred TO a station where work was tenn
porniy each year when emergency requir-
ed. The court held it of no consequence
whether Phelan knew it was for tempo
rary work. 1t was the fact, and not the
good faith of Phelan. that was in ques-
ton. Further, when Pratt was laid off
Ii appeared that one pumping station WAS
i'll operation and men were working there
who were not veterans and not entitled to
preference. The requests. the court said.
were denied not because of bad faith on
the part of Phelan. but because be had
made Il mistake in his powers and there
fore Pratt was entitled to be restored to
his position. The entire question of good
faith. as referred to by the appellate di-
vision. was of no importance in this case
because there is no question that there is
work to do in this department, and it is
the fact and not the intention which must
govern the court.
AT the close of the defendants case
Justice Herrick decided that Il mandamus
must issue directing Commissioner Phelan
to reinstatc Pratt unless the city pays all
the taxable costs up to April Il, when
Pratt was offered the job. and Commits
sioner Phelan agree that he shall be given
the job

He was perceptibly thinner than he had

were at the road. The others were so dis

ed against the trees, heard the ceaseless

dead leaves and watched the rise in front
of them, whence came sounds showing
that the rebels We're gathering there. De-
casionally searching shot would come

CUBA's act of amnesty to American
criminals is not particularly acceptable.
1t savors too much of the old world
royal grace" We try to rule this part
of the world with justice, as unfailing
and exact as human minds can make it.
If a man is guilty he should be punished,
and Presidential inaugurations, and other
functions, have nothing to do with it. In
Europe the Kings and Queens as mat
ter of favor relax their laws when they
are crowned, child is born or some other
happy event occurs. 1t keeps up the idea
that the laws are not q matter for the
well-being Of society, but the result OF the
Inonarchical will. If the Americans in

THE proposed Constitution of Connect.
cut reyerses the order in the United
States, and makes the Senate the popular
branch. 1t represents the fight which has
been going on between the big cities and
the small towns. Under the present Con-
stitution one-sixth of the population, scat
tered through the small towns, controls n
majority of Legislature, while one-half
of the population, gathered in IA cities,
controls only one-eighth the vote. Con-
nectieut shows how hard it is to kill some
wrongs. She inherited her representation
system from England, and has never been
oble TO materially change it.
