Rushing Too Fast Again.

Just as was the case ten or twenty
or thirty years ago, so it is the case
now that in the warm sun of pros
perity is generated sanguineness I'M
tempered by the remembrances of past
disasters, and the opportunities of the
moment are pursued with an eager
ness which takes little account of .Ae
possible vicissitudes of the future.
Thus has been generated in the past
the pride that goeth before destruc-
ton, and, so far as the psychology of
the case is concerned. the present is in

General Order 100.

Each officer in the Philippines ac-
cused of cruelty to prisoners and 9th
ers says in his defense that he acted
by the authority of his superior Off
GERS. So all the acts OF cruelty are
traced up from one officer to another
until the whole responsibility is placed
on General Smith,
General Smith says that his orders
to his subordinates were based on gen
eral order 100. recently issued for the
information of officers as to their du-
ties.
General order 100 was issued by the
war department in 1868. 1t covered
| instructions to Union officers who cap
tured guerrillas of the Quantrell Kind
who had committed excuses in viola
ton of the rules of war. 1t authorized
suspension of all rules of warfare
and retaliation when the enemy acts
in similar manner"
This old order was dug out of the
dusty files of the war department and
republished last year for the instruc-
ton of our army in the Philippines.
This fact furnished the apologists for
the administration what they thought
was a good joke on the press and pub
lie men who had criticised its applica
ton to recent methods in the Philip
pines.
They found great humor in the fact
that newspapers and members of Con-
gress had condemned acts of barbar-
ism supposing them to have been COM
mitted under recent ORDER when, as
a matter of fact, the order was issued
during the War of the Rebellion. The
joke is not apparent.
General order 100 had been obsolete
and dead letter for thirty-nine years.
1t ever would have been heard of
again but for Secretary Root and his
| methods. Its existence was recalled
by some memory useful only for evil.
Civilization has advanced by leaps and
bounds since the order was issued,
more than a generation ago.
Another One.
Mr.. Mckinley found Secretary Alger
too heavy load to carry and he was
dropped. Mr. Roosevelt shouldered
Secretary Long and stumbled along
with him for while, but he had to let
go finally.
There are indications that the rela-
lions between the President and Secre-
tary Root are becoming similarly
strained. Mr.. Roosevelt is muscular
and strenuous, but when it dawns up
on him, as it must very soon, that Mr.
Root will have to be carried by main
strength he is likely to throw him.
As an old friend and associate in
strong-arm practices about all that
Mr.. Root can hope for will be that the
place selected for the dump will not
be too rocky-Chicago Chronicle.

TIE FREE SKATERS
Are the Serious Stumbling Blocks in
the Peace Negotiations.

Pretoria. May 2U.-While it is hard
to sift out the ruth from the mass
of contradictory reports that are float
ing in here from Nereeniging. Trans
raHl, where the lioer delegates are in
conference the best information OBJ
tainable leads 70 the belief that there
are Il number Of obstacles in the way
Of a peaceful settlement.
In summing up the situation at
NereeniSing it is safe to say that 4
majority of the TranSVaalers, in clud-
ing the Tr1nsvaal government. is in
favor of peace, while the representa-
tives of the Orangre Free State. with
4 few influential exceptions, declare
they will not renouuce independence.
Strangely enough. General De Wet,
who was most irreconcilable at the
last conference, IS now quite a strong
advocate of peace
Lord Kitchener certainly will not eX-
coed the concessions already offered
the delegates, so there remains only
the question of the reduction of the de-
mands Of the Orange Free State repre-
sentatives. or the possibility Of q split
between the Boer factions. This latter,
while il would delay an immediate set
tlement, of the matters before the con-
ference. would certainly hasten the
final solution of the situation in the
field.
