Fairness Impossible.

Detroit Free Press (dem)
1t is simply impossible to have the reve-
lations from the Philippines dealt with un-
der that judicial directness which puts
aside all Interior considerations. Politics
intervenes because the minority in congress
is stimulated by the prospect Of making
capital for its party and has double cause
for its most aggressive treatment of the
situation. The majority has the task Of
vindicating the administration policy.

A National humiliation.
Indianapolis News.

South Carolina has never done anything
more obnoxious to the country, and that is
saying a good deal, than sending Tillman
to the senate. No one objects to any views
he may have on a public question, or to
how he may cast his vote. Nor does any
one object to free speech. But we all have
a pride to our nam as a nation, and to have
a senator of the United States delivering
himself Of such billingsgate as Senator
Tillman does every time he opens his
mouth is becoming a national humiliation.

presume that a discussion over the pro-
found question whether the free and IN
limited coinage of settler and soda
would be desirable under present condi-
lions, or whether milk punches would be
more agreeable, would have been equally
appropriate II not more interesting.

A delegation of prominent colored
men has been waiting on the house
committee on commerce to urge an
amendment to the Interstate commerce
law that will do away with arbitrary
discrimination by railroads between pas
sengers ON account of color. Everyone
who has ever travelled in the southern
states is familiar with the rank inc
quality of the railroad accommodations
afforded whites and blacks, both on
trains and in stations, where the color
line is drawn almost like a deadline.
This discrimination will not allow the
colored passenger better service, even
though he is able and ready to pay for
IL. While it might not be feasible to
carry mixed passenger trains, the de-
mand for equal accommodations with
out regard to color must appeal to all
fair-minded people. If the law can be
made to reach the case by including
this form among the prohibited unjust
determinations, 1t should by all means
be done.

There is really no necessity for an in
spection of the gas company's books in
order to ascertain the value of the as
sets of that corporation. 1t is imma-
terial how much the company has
earned in the year 1901, or any other
year. The supreme court has instructed
the board in plain language that the
market value of the stocks and the
bonded debt must be added together,
and after su~btracting from that amount
the value of the property listed as real
estate and the presumed value Of its
property outside of the city limits, the
residue represents the actual value of
the property and franchises for taxa
ton purposes. After these figures have
been cast up the only other question
the board has to determine is what is
the tax ratio. If all other property in
this city is assessed at 40 per cent, then
it is 40 per cen If less, 1t must CORE
spond in ratio to all the property re-
turned to the tax commissioner The
personal property that has not been dis
closed cuts no figure whatever in the APP
praisement Of the property Of the cor
porations any more than it would in the
