JOHN HAYS FALL.

A most astonishing revelation of the
attitude of our Brlton- warshipping
government is made by the complaint
Of Major Arthur Lee. i'll the British
Parliament of the inefticiency of the
British War Department Major Lee
was formerly British military attache
at Washington, but states that he was
not informed that the war Office was
buying horses In this country. He
says:
] learned from the American news
papers that British officers had been
sent to buy horses. but | was not in.
formed who they were. nor was | ask
ed to give them such assistance as my

ton to the war Office, but reserved no

JOHN BULLS IGNORANCE.

lnasmuch as John Bull claims all
the credit OF saving the United States
from a European coalition in 1898.
IT might be well for him to learn some-
thing about the geographical divisions
of the republic which is under such
overwhelming obligations to him. The
London Telegraph. one of the leading
British newspapers in a recent edi-
torial relating to John s. Wises book
on the civil War, referred to the au-
thor as "the son of the Governor of
North Virginia" AT a criminal trial
a month or SO ago an eminent London
lawyer. holding n high official position,
referred to the State of New Or
leans
such ignorance on the part of those
who saved us from destruction Is ois-
tressing. 1t has been a long time, II Is
true, since Cousin John evacuated the
United States and left this republic
to the tender mercies Of the "rebels
against the authority of the King
The fact that he retired under COM
pulsion. however, and was never al
lowed to reassert his sovereignty, is no
excuse for his ignorance of American
geography
II he loves us as much now as he
processes, he will buy an atlas and
encyclopedia and acquire some greatly
needed information about the United
States. We are world power" now.
II we are to believe the Phoenix Re-
publican. in the same class with Great
Britain. and II John Bull hopes to

SUPPRESS The TRAIN ROBBER.

Among it's other excellencies our
own beloved country excels, unpleas-
antly in the matter of train robberes.
| Train robbers have become SO bold
thickly settled districts and the
robbers are seldom caught.
This state OF things is discreditable
to u.s. There are scarcely any train
robbers in Mexico nor In Canada 1t
Is only In the United States that
Government mails are seized by force
and travellers murdered--all on ac-
count OF the remisness OF the Govern
ment.
We have an Interstate Commerce
Commission to regulate the running
of trains and to interfere mildly with
rates and pooling. but no Interstate
railroad detective corps to prevent
the stopping of trains and looting Of
passengers by making the train rob-
ber's business improbable.
II the masked highwayman, who
stops train and goes through" those
aboard did but once get It into his
head that a train robber is followed
persistently anu is as sure of capture
as the counterfeiter or the maker Of
''moonshine' whiskey. the robbing
business would become unfashionable
1t may be said that II is the func-
! ton OF the individual States or Terri
tories to detect and arrest train rob-
bers and that the rederal Govern
ment has no jurisdiction. But, II the
Federal Government has the right to
protect mail trains from strikers. ii
surely has the right to protect them
from robbers. The ingenuity that
based on Interstate Commerce the
idea of Federal regulation of railroad
management ana of the sale OF oleo-
margarine could find no difficulty In
devising basis for interference with
less lawful occupations.
The train robber. like a burglar, Is
murderer If need be, in the proseeu-
tion Of his enterprise. How long will 1t
be before Congress will try % protect
the public from this monster?

The ETHlCS OF LOOTlNG.

We learn from a London dispatch
published in the San Francisco Chron-
icle that the London Globe is very
angry because the wives of the foreign
ministers at Pekin accepted decora-
tions few days ago from the Dow
ager Empress of China. fhe wife of
the American Minister is slgnaled out
by our London contemporary for an
exceptionally severe rebuke. Says the
Globe: The necklace the Dowager
Empress placed on Mrs. Conger should
have been spurned as the gift of muir
derers chargeable with the torture and
death OF American Christian women.
The ladies were not primarily to
blame. but an objectionable fault rests
with the diplomats who allowed the
cruel indignity.'
1t may possibly be unjust to the
Globe to suggest that il would not OBJ
iect to the wives OF diplomats getting
possession of Chinese jewelry IL the
latter were acquired by the good old
British way of looting. When the
legations at Pekin were relieved by
the international army the Chinese
capital, 1t is said. was Systematically
plundered from palace to hovel.
Unless all witnesses of the looting
were mistaken, our British friends got
generous share of the spoiIs which
were subsequently auctoned off to the
highest bidder. Now, as a matter of
military ethics, it may be perfectly
honorable to despoil an enemy-to
take. without his permission. his
jewels, silk and bric-a-brac, his mon
ey. his household furniture and every
thing else that had a selling value. 1t
might have been eminently proper for
persons connected with high foreign
officials to go into the imperial palace
and carry off valuable ornaments as
souvenirs of the siege and relief OF
Pekln. There may have been no VIOLA
tion of the Decalogue in such methods
of acquiring property belonging to
others. On the contrary. it may have
been perfectly decorous to get rich by
such means
Still. the whole thing is open to
doubt III foreigners have a yearning
for Chinese Jewelry it seems to be
more respectable for them to get it
with the consent of the owners than
to take 1t without their leave. Loot
ing is. after all, simply larceny on a
large scale. In time of peace the per-
son who loots his neighbor's prop
erty Is regarded as thief and IL pun
ished according to his demerits. Theft
Is theft at all times and cannot be

EDITORIAL DEPARTMENT.

This makes the offense of our Gov
ernment much worse than had been
supposed for it was thought that 1t
had been guilty only of passlvely per-
permitting the British government to
buy horses here in violation of the
principles of neutrality and of our
treaty with Great Britain. BY this
statement the Government stood
ready to furnish an expert to help
select horses for the work of subiugat-
ing the Beers Think of 1t. Our OFF,
cials aiding the Cecil Rhodes syndi-
cate in the villainy of destroying the
boer republics and ravishing South
Africa with fire and sword.
How could Americans ever descend to
such depths of baseness? When our
present Secretary OF State. John Hay,
was a true American and a poet, he
wrote some verses under the title Thy
Will be Done" which were creditable
to him. Among them were these:
When tyrant feet are trampIing
Upon the common veal,
Thou dost not bid us cringe and writhe
Beneath the iron heel;
In thy name we assert our rights.
With sword and tongue and pen.
And cen the headsman' AK may flash
Thy message unto men.
Thy will 1t bids the weak be strong,
1t bids the strong be just;
Ne lip to fawn. no hand to beg,
No brow to seek the dust.
Wherever man oppresses man
Beneath the liberal sun.
o God. Be there thine arm made bare,
Thy righteous Will be done.
What fall from that high position
to the degradation of aiding in the
destruction OF liberty and indepen-
dence. nat awful attack of snob-
berry and Anglomania must nave come
to a man once capable of such senti-
ments to make him the willing tool OF
the British gold and diamond pirates
OF South Africa. Unfortunately he not
only disgraced himself, but also his
country.

cribed as a Klondike town Ia severe
strain upon our friendship.
Some years ago the average un-
travelled Englander imagined that all
Americans were red men and that
buffalo frequently invaded the streets
of New York and Washington. This
ignorance was picturesque and, there
fore, excusable, but since we became
"world power" the Britisher will have
to study our geography or we will be-
gin to get real angry with him.

Newspapers have been circu-

every campaign in recent years.
The national committees send
them out by hundreds of thous-

tribute them in smaller numbers.
It is done by both parties and all
parties, as well as by political
clubs. It is a legitimate trans
action and the newspaper man
who refuses business of that
kind is fool. Neither in these

versitv students should stand by
Gov. La Toilette because he is
one of the alumni. ust SO; but
what is the matter with them
standing by John c. Spooner
for the same reason and also for
the additional one that he went
direct from the university into
the war of the vebellion, and
honorably until the close of the
war. Owing to the unfortunate
disposition Of Coy. La Toilette,
it will probably be impossible to
elect him governor and at the
same time elect a legislature that
will again send Spooner to the
senate. The governor is SO tan
gIed up with Isaac Stephenson,
and owes him so many favors
that he could not favor Spoone1

into consideration, it is impos
sible for Wisconsin to retain the
services of both men, and the
people must choose which to
keep and which to retire.
