The HohenZollern.

The New York Suns description of the
Aohenzollern contains this paragraph:
AT the head OF the companion leading TO
tho emperor's suite Is picture of Hohen-
zollern castle, the seat Of the reigniny
German family. On the left of it hangs an
engraving of the fight in Mobile bay. en-
titled A Day With Farragut.' with the
admiral standing on the bridge of the Hart
ford. On the right of the picture of the
castle Is an engraving of the battle Of Ira
falSar with Nelson on the deck of the Vic
tory. Here and there over the walls OF
the various rooms of the imperial suite are
paintings and pen and ink drawings made
by the emperor
These two battle pictures would appear
appropriately on any fighting ship in any
por. In the world. They celebrate two
heroes Of worldwide fame. and two con-
tests that were of world wide Importance.
But observe how very appropriately they
appear on the Hohenzollern on her present
trip to the port Of New York.

to the United States on the occasion of the
launching Of his new yacht. and his brother

Changing Inauguration Day.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The Senate has passed the resolution
calling for a constitutional amendment
that will make Inauguration day fall IN
April instead of in March. The House
seems disposed to agree to It and there Is
no reason why the legislatures should not
indorse 1t next winter so that the next in
auguration will not be under normally un-
favorable auspices.
The amendment seems necessary solely
on account Of the negligence of our fore
fathers. We doubt IL there is another i'm
portant law on the statute books which
was passed before the Constitution came
Into operation. 1t was the moribund con-
gress of the confederation, which actually
died without the formality Of adjourn
ment. which saddled March on us as in
auguration day. In fact, it cannot prop
erly be held to have done even that. 1t
provided for that date, but its authority
was so low that Washington ignored It
altogether and did not take offlce until
April 30. AS the Constitution provides
for four-year term. it is a little hard
to understand why Washington did not
a date that was fixed by body without
any power In the premises and was Sc
lected purely arbitrarily because Il was
considered necessary to do something.
II the first Congress under the Constitu-
tion had taken proper action, the present
but 1t was not considered important, as
the function took place indoors and the
present pageantry was unthought of. II
Is necessary to pass the amendment now
solely to provide for the presidency dur
ing the two months that must elapse before
April. We think this Is q matter on which
there will be general agreement, and 1t is
likely to fall only In case Il Is considered
OF too little Importance to bother with.

The Real Responsibility.

Indictments were found yesterday in New
York against seven men charged with re-
sponsibility for the recent terrific explosion
Of dynamite In Park avenue, which caused
the death of five persons and the destruc-
ton Of property valued at upwards Of ST.
100000. All but one Of these seven are
connected with the rapid transit tunnel
work. In the prosecution Of which the ex-
plosiye was being used The seventh man
is an inspector Of the city bureau Of COM
bustibes. he being indicted for neglect Of
duty. His case is really the most import
ant Of all, for had he been active in the
performance Of his duties the carelessness
Of the others, or their Indifference to the
requirements of the public safety would
have been but small factors. Public in
spectors who fail to inspect are a more
serious menace to the community than the
agencies which they are supposed to
guard. If this man is really guilty Of neg
lect as the Indictment charges, his severe
punishment ought to make for more last
ing reform in such matters than even the
imposition Of extreme penalties upon the
others.

The Crumpacker Resolution.

The Boston Herald has Joined the ranks
of those who are fighting the Crumpacker
resolution upon the most absurd of all pos
sible grounds. As witness:
"The project to lessen the vote of the
south in Congress because Of the disfran-
chiSement of coiored voters is really In
effect an acquiescence in such dsfran
chiSement."
Does the Herald really believe this? Does
it hold that the authors of the fourteenth
and fifteenth amendments to the Constitu-
tion were dunderheads? Is it unwilling to
make any allowance for pride and everyday
selfish common sense in the south? Could
anything be palmer than that il the south
should be forced to pay the constitutional
penalty for making her election laws mere
Contrivances for registering democratic
maJcrities she would revise those laws in
tie interests of fair play and just dealing?
Her machine politicians will hold on to
their unlawful power long possible,
ard put up a complaining mouth at all
talk of taking 1T away. But let 1t be taken
away. and their advantages for negotiating
with Tammany Hall for control of the ma
tional government impaired, and in order
to exercise as much influence in Congress
and the electoral college as possible they
will open their polling booths to many men
whom they now exclude. The best thing
that could possibly happen to the south, as
to the whole country, would be her rescue
by the means proposed from the machine
influences that now dominate her.
But the Herald speaks at some disadvan-
tage in this matter, and the fact must be
taken into consideration. 1t has shared In
the past in the fruits OF the south's uncon-
stitutional power, and hesitates now to ar
ray itself against an old ally. The Herald
does not forget that 1t was the electoral
votes of the south that twice elected it's
candidate. Mr.. Cleveland, to the presidency
Of the United States. Those votes 1t is
true, We're obtained before the suffrage
laws of the south were doctored by and in
the interests of the democratic party, but
the means employed were even more fla
grantly violative Of the spirit Of the Con-
stitution These suffrage laws have simply
taken the place of physica, force in the
control of the ballot boxes. Mr.. Tillman
has frankly explained how the trick was
turned In South Carolina, and an impartial
canvass of the whole lower southern situa-
tion shows that the people lad tired of the
one means and a matter Of personal
comfort adopted the other.
1t may be. too, that the Herald with
thoughts Of 1904, is casting an anchor to
wlndward. With anti-imperialism substi-
tuted for free trade a rallying cry the
old combination of the solid south and
Tammany Hall will again be ready for
business.

the work. or can something be now done
to correct the mistakes and permit q
thorough cleansing? At the present rate
of melting the people must wait for many
weeks before they are relieved by nature
of the menace and the nuisance.
New York spends a large sum annually
in the removal of ice and snow and even
with the inadequate administration OF the
funds under Tammany's rule, proportion
ately more has been done there against
the heavy handicaps OF the enormous
street traffic to remove the snow and Ice
as quickly as the streets were covered. At
present the streets of that city are clean,
and the weather there has been just about
the same on the average since the snow
fall in Washington.
What can be done in New York, against
the enormous difficulties there to be fought.
can surely be done here, with compara-
lively small street traffic, with thor
oughfares well paved and easily cleaned
and with less snow In the aggregate In the
course Of the season..
Washington must have clean streets,
whatever the state Of the thermometer.

China and the Alliance.

The Chinese authorities at Pekin are rep
resented In the dispatches as delighted with
the British Japanese alliance. They con-
strue 1t as warning to Russia, and as af
fording them security against future Rus
sian aggression. They haze probably not
mistaken the nature OF the instrument.
But II Is to be hoped that they will not be
encouraged by It to any act of assertive-
ness calculated to bring on hostilities of
any kind. Because they find themselves at
last with big brother at their back is no
reason why they should proceed at once to
make themselves particularly disagreeable
They have many grievances, and the Man.
churian episode is especially vexatious. but
a little patience and diplomacy woven In al
this time With the force that is now avail
able In the case Of an emergency will make
the new Chinese fabric all the more service
able and presentable.
W. may very Well question the accuracy
OF the speculation in Europe as to the form
Russia's counter stroke is likely to take.
That she will attempt something of that
nature Is altogether likely, but 1t will have
tC be very carefully Thought out. Stirring
up strife on the Indian border would be a
foolish and reckless proceeding. Indeed this
new alliance makes it necessary for every
body TO move now with added caution; for
should any two of the great powers come
20 blows in any part of the world over any
problem Of the least consequence uniyer-
sal mix-up might easily follow.
China mas been saved from the danger
or dismemberment, but she ought not to
celebrate the event with a too aggressive
display of fireworks.

guished men In and out Of office. Here
then facing the American guests will be
this picture of the greatest sailor in Amer
lean history. Farragut was the ideal sea
fighter, and one of the sturdiest spirits that
ever lived. His Damn the torpedoes!" Is
the key to his character, and Is one of the
two pieces of profanity which the church
has forgiven and allowed to become inspira-
tlcns to men. No man who dimes with
Prince Henry will fail to salute the figure
or the bridge of the Hartford.
1t has been said that the kaiser in this
demonstration has in mind more an anti
English than strictly a pro-Amer1can oo-
ject. If any visitor on board the Hohen-
zollern should recall that stupid charge he
has but to observe the kaiser's tribute to
the greatest of English sailors. Nelson Is
there in another frame, conspicuous hg-
ure on the deck of the Victory. Farragut
and Nelson, the Hartford and the Victory,
keep company well together. and are al
ways hailed by English-speaking men with
feelings Of pride and pleasure.
The kaiser is undoubtedly a many-sided
man. We had known him for some years
in his character of War Lord, and, we need
not hesitate to admit, had enjoyed with
everybody else-and maybe even with him
self-the work Of the fun makers at his
expense. when suddenly, by his invitation
to the Presidents daughter to christen his
yacht, he revealed himself TO us as one Of
the most thoughtful and gallant Of gentle
men. And now in these decorations of his
ship he shows himself to be a diplomat of
the first water-of the blue water He de-
serves good weather for the launching, and
a good boat when it reaches the sea, and
everybody will wish him the best of luck
with it.
