REFUSING SALOON LICENSES.

| MAYOR p. ]. Martin, of Waterloo. We

ditional saloons in that city, and is
being commended for it. The Courier

Mayor Martins belief is that Water

sage he says:
the number of saloons in this city
would tend to interiors with the en-
forcement of the law. 1t would have a
tendency to lower the license now paid
by the saloons in the city, and would
finally result in Waterloo having twice
a. many saloons as ii now has without
any material increase in revenue. If
this saloon is allowed to open it will be
followed by several Others, all on the

where there is already all the saloons
needed for the good of The city or the
needs of the public. there now being
twelve saloons on the east side of the
river. A reasonable enforcement of the
provisions of the mulct law is made
possible in Waterloo by being able to
limit the number of saloons in the dis

ion the law can and will be better en-
forced in Waterloo IL the number of
saloons is not allowed to increase. and
I therefore respectfully decline to sign
this resolution, for the reasons above

FAyoR,Nc A TARIFF COMMISSION,

All the Indications go to show that
an effort will be made in the coming
session of congress to establish q tariff
commission, a bipartisan and Impair
tial tribunal to which the question Of
tariff changes can be submitted. A
number of our public leaders are in ia
yor of such commission. One of the
latest to express himself on this sub
iect is Senator Cullom, of Illinois, an
official Of long service and ripe expert
ence.
revision of the tariff, and only a small
demand for it, said Senator Cullom
In Washington the other day. But the
tariff should be modified where the
rates are too high. This modification
can be broght about in two ways
one, thru the medium of reciprocity with
foreign nations. by which we would
benefit. The other medium is by the
appointment of tariff commission, the
L
adopted by congress"
He believes the tariff question should
be divorced from politics entirely. This
may be. an optimistic dream, but it Is
one that forms the basis for such de-
mand. Discussing the subject further
Senator Cullom said:
such a commission as have in
mind could Investigate the tariff ques-
ton irnpartially and from a business
standpoint, and after a thorough inves-
tigation it would be competent to say
whether rate was too high or too low.
It's recommendations should be adopted
Instantly by congress Then we would
have solved this vexed problem. Our
tariff laws need adjustment frequently,
but this adjustment should not be Of a
| character to disturb the business stu
alton. If there should be general re-
vision of the tariff the wheels of prog
ress would stop for time. Il always
have believed our tariff rates should
lbe only high enough to protect well

How the continentaIs Dressed.

In "The Prologue of the American
Revolution in the Century for Novem.
Der, Prof. Justin II. Smith gives tn
following description of the "uniform6
of the American soldiers at the capt
.ure of ST., Johns, in Montgomery's Ca
madam campaign:
All the besieging troops were on foot
in the best attire they could command.
In the three Connecticut regiments no
uniforms were visible except aS officers
here and there had chosen to provide
themselves, or a private wore the dingy
old coat that had done service at LOu-
isburg years before; but gradations Of
rank were shown by colored ribbons.
Plainly dressed tho they were. the men
looked formidable with their big mus
kets, the barrels four feet long minus
two inches, the bore three quarters OF
an inch in diameter, and the cleaning
bayonets fourteen inches in length.
Beside them stood the New York
troops. Weeks before, Captain Liv-
ingston had described the dress Of his
men: Some of them have waistcoats,
none; some hats, others without; some

things had not improved much during
the wear and tear of the siege. But
they all had regimental coats, at least,
distinguishing the regiments by the
color Of the facings; and Montgomery
declared that somehow they had ac-
quired the look OF regulars. There.
also was Captain Lamb with his arr
tillery, all in blue and buff, and that Of
finer quality than the infantry had,
as became an elite corps; and. yonder.
a squad Of the Green Mountain Boys
from Lonsueuil, dressed out in green
with red facings, and such strapping
fellows that the New York Provincial
Congress had TO order all their coats
made "of largs..ze." Behind them
shone the tents of the soldiers and the
officers marques; while the vast pines
of the forest made somber but meg
nifcent background.

Panama Canal Title.
IOnlaha Feel.

There Is apparently no obstacle In
the way Of the new Panama canal COM
pany giving the United States per-
feet title to its property In Colombia,
providing the consent OF the govern
nent of that country is obtained.inere
has been no intimation as to the re-
suit of the investigation made In Paris
bv Attorney General Knox, but accord
ing to the general counsel OF the canal
company. Mr. Cromwell. of New YORK,
there is no question of the capacity OF
the company to convey a good title to
the United States. An equally trust
worthy opinion to this effect has been
given by the former French premier,
Waldeck- Rousseau.
The worst feature of the matter is
the unsettled state of the republic of
Colombia, which is struggling with a
revolution that has been going on for
several years and seems to be as vlgor-
Gus as at any time since its inception.
1t is reasonably apprehended that our
government will have a good deal OF
trouble in arranging a satisfactory
treaty with Colombia to cover the con-
struction of the canal. There is prac-
,ically no government at all in that re-
public at present. Such government as
there is has been unable for some
months past to make any progress to-
ward subduing the revolutionists, If in
deed the latter have not been gaining
ground, as events on the Isthmus Of
Panama have indicated. Under these
circumstances there appears to be some
doubt as to whether we can get valid
concession from a stable government,
conveying the rights and authority ne
cessary to protect us in the construct
ion of the canal.

Education in America.
IChicapo Trihune.l

The report of the commissioners or
education does not cry peace, peace"
when peace has not yet been accom-
plished. 1t admits the fact that the
struggle toward a complete education
for the citizens of the United States IS
still in progress. 1t does not hesitate
TO make the statement, however, that
there is good reason for believing that
the struggle in question will terminate
successfully.
The number of pupils enrolled in all
the educational institutions of the
country, public and private. primary,
secondary, and higher, was l7,2S9,OOO
for the year ending on June 80, lSOl.
This was an increase over the previous
year of 27S,O00. In point of expenditure
comparison with 1870 is even more
rgratifying. In 1870 the expenditure
for schools per capita was $l.b4. In
1901 it was $2.93. 1t is evident that the
people of the United States have not
lost their belief in education as the So
cial panacea.
OF course, the main difficulty now Is
that while the overwhelming majority
of children get some kind OF schoonns,
too many of them get it in insufficient
quantities. They go to school, but they
don't go enough. They leave in large
numbers at the end of their fourth year.
1t is well that they do not leave earlier.
1.-TWO uld be better if they left later. Four
years of schooling does not equip the
boy for his future duties as a citizen.
1t is this half education with its con-
sequence of half understanding that
President Eliot must blame for certain
unfortunate conditions in American
life. President Eliot will notice, how
ever, that little by little, or even much
by much, the people of the United
States are providing themselves with
an educational machinery which In
most respects will be inferior to none
in the world. If money and enthusiasm
can do anything we shall some day
have a completely educated America
