CURIOUS "sENsE OF HONOR"
How the Spanish Commander at
Manila Arranged the Surrender.

SHICdBO SnTOniCle'
In Admiral Dewey's testimony before the
senate Philippine committee he exposed a
peculiar view OF the Spanish sense Of
honor" His description OF the circum-
stances under which he occupied the city
and forts Of Manila is picturesque.
He said that the spaniards were afraid OF
su%rrendering to the Filipino forces under
Aguinaldo's command. They anticipated
that such a surrender would lead to a gem
eral massacre. They arranged deliberately
to deliver the city, Notifications and forces.
numbering about 5000 men, directly to
Dewey. whose feet commanded the entire
water front.
But the Spanish commander had a sense
of honor in the matter which he demanded
should receive consideration. Speaking OF
the surrender, Admiral Dewey said:
That was all arranged and there was no
need for the loss Of a man in the capture OF
the city. 1t was to have been done at a
signal and no gun need have been fired by
us but for the desire Of the governor gen.
eral, who said that his honor demanded
that a few shots should be fired. So l
had to fire and kill a few people,"
To manufacture some spectral evidence
that he had not surrendered without re-
ceiving a shot, the Spanish commander de-
manded that Admiral Dewey should fire at
him a few times. Dewey consented, but
stipulated that the Spaniard should not fire
back, which might have endangered some
American lives.
This Sense Of honor" In the Spaniard-
the notion that he could honorably sur
render without firing a gun after a few OF
his men had been killed-is like the French
sense Of honor which is satisfied in a duel
when swords are crossed" though with
out causing bloodshed. Such a sense OF
honor" is a very inoffensive national or
personal characteristic.
This Is the sense of honor which Fail
staff ridiculed. He says:
Honor pricks me on. Yea, but what II
honor pricks me of when'I come on-how
then? Can honor set a leg7 no; or an arm?
mo-; or take ava the grief OF a wound no.
Honor hath no skill in surgery. them no.
What is honor7 a word. What is the
word honor? air"
On this line Of thought Falstaff's view OF
honor proceeds. 1t is evidently the III
Of honor which the ~Spaniard desired to
protect in his negotiations with Admiral
Dewey for the surrender Of Manila

PLAIN-sPEAKING PRESIDENT.
nv. RoOsevelt's Frnnkness COmmends
Itself to Americans.
Chicago News.

Chicago News.
Probably II President Roosevelt had been
trained in the school OF practical politics
he would hesitate long before defending
himself and his administration as frankly
as he does in his public speeches. other
presidents have spoken publicly In defense
OF their party policies. Under personal
criticism either Of themselves or Of sub
ordinate administration ~oflcials they usu-
ally have deemed It wise to smart in 81
lence.
But II It is the part OF good politics to ig-
more criticism II is not in Mr.. Roosevelt'a
temperament or character to do so. His
Memorial day address resolved itself into
a stirring defense OF the army. In his ad-
dress to the Harvard alumni the other day
he took up the cudgel on behalf Of General
Wood, Secretary Root and Governor Taft
and Justify belabored the critics who have
passed censure upon those o~flcials. In
cidentally he did not hesitate to imply that
this nation has shown the traditional In
gratitude OF republics. Great Britain's pub
lie servants. its Cromers and Kitcheners,
when they return from foreign service we'll
performed receive large and tangible re-
wards. Our men OF that stamp, said the
president come back to the country and IL
they can find of the strings left loose when
they sundered their old connections and
IL they are unfortunate they are accused
Of maladversion in ONCE"
This is a kind of plain speaking which the
American public has not been trained to
expect from its presidents. II the oppor-
tunity 1t affords for criticism from oppos-
Ing partisans it is in the last degree i'm
polite. Yet 1t is certain that the average
American will approve of the presidents
vigorous defense of the men who have
served with him and whom he likes.

Umbrella. q. L~iRhtning Rods.
Philadelphia Ledger.

IT steel frame umbrella Is light, con-
venient and much less clumsy than its pred
ecessor with a wooden shaft; but there Is
an element OF danger in It. A woman at
Atlantic City, a day or two ago, was struck
by a bolt Of lightning attracted by the
metallic frame Of her umbrella, and men
have been killed by inadvertently letting
the steel points OF their umbrellas come in
contact with low-hanging electric lights.
Such cases are not numerous, but they have
occurred and as the season Of thunder
storms has now begun, It is we'll to exer-
else some care in carrying umbrellas equip

wisdom hath her excuses which de-
mand restraint, no less than folly" said
wise old Montague. Education, too. has
it's excuses, no less than ignorance. and It
was these excuses which President Angel
selected as the theme for his b~accalau-
reate sermon to the graduating class Of
the University of Michigan. The excess Of
overspecialization, the excess Of CONNER
cialism, the excess OF political Brahmin-
ism. the excess OF social Brahminsim, the
excess Of materialism.
They are real excuses, to be insisted on
as such, and all the more because Of the
different relation that the higher educa-
ton had come to assume to society. There
was never another time, at least since the
days Of Athens, when the educated man
touched the life Of his community at so
many points. He is no longer a r~ecluse,
content to be merely a scholar, satisfied
with his tub II the Alexanders will only
keep out Of his light. He is everywhere
that men go; in the mines, in the facto-
rles, in the counting rooms, in the labora-
tories. on the farm. and at the caucuses.
as we'll as in the pulpit and on the bench.
and in the professors chair. Instead OF
being a man who holds himself beyond
the daily life Of his fellow men, he is an
integral part OF the herd. whether IL be
vulgar or exalted. A few decades ago the
college man was the exception. Now he
and his fellows are to be counted by the
tens Of thousands. His numbers are In
ereasing like Jacobs iocks. He Is doing
the worlds work, and doing II as 1t was
never done before. and IT is evident that
his ideals and his aspirations and his am
billions are to exercise a greater influence
than ever before in shaping the existence
Of society.
They are already having their effect.

The campaign for more equitable taxa
ton of railroads is not confined to any
one state-it presents an issue sure to

WHY NOT ABOLISH THE SUPERIN-
TENDENTf

TENDENTi
The dominant majority Of the Board Of
Education makes no bones of 1t that 1t
has no confidence In the ability Of Super
intendent Pearse to give efficient direc-
ton to the teachers of the public schools.
This lack of confidence is exhibited at
every turn, not only in the selection,
promotion and assignment of teachers,
but also in the regular disregard of the
superintendent recommendations with
reference to the subdivision of the
school work, the choice Of textbooks,
etc.
AS a natural consequence of this de-
plorable condition, the board has virtu-
ally taken to itself the performance Of
duties that should devolve upon the
superintendent and relieved him not only
Of the functions. but also Of the RESPONSE
billty Of his position. To all intents
and purposes. therefore. Superintendent
Pearse is treated as a igurehead rather
than as the general manager Of the
public school system. The upshot is
that for all practical purposes his serv-
Ices might as well be dispensed with.
In other words, with a superintendent
who lacks the essential qualification
and does not enjoy the full confidence
of the board, the office becomes a sine
cure that might as well be abolished.
The damaging effect OF this state of
affairs upon the educational system can
be scarcely oVerestimated. Imagine. II
such a thing could be. a general man
ager Of a railroad who did not enjoy the

The most serious grievance growing
out Of the action Of the county board
raising the assessments of the South

belongs to the assessor of the packing
