T. Schumann. the proprietor Of Seventh

1t is not complimentary to the Senate,
and it is not the fact, that the Senate
needs to be nagged by petition into
studying questions that come before it..
By its very excess, by the known and
often ignorant readiness with which
people sign petitions for anything and
everything, the petition habit has little
effect upon Congress. Nor is it likely
that these Christian people know what
they are doing" They know that they
object to polygamy, but just what do
they know about the qualifications or
disqualifications of the Hon. REED
SMooT? Mr.. HoAR made short work OF
Mr.. DUBo1s's virtuous parade:
1t seems to ME almost queer that amnn should

can't lose any votes by pitching into

Finally, the Hon. EUGENE HALE made
satisfactory analysis of the relations
between the people and the Senate and
of the difference between that body and

grimier. Statisticlans hold that there
are as many fremen as there arc en-
gineers, and that the political potential
of each is equal.
Engineers and firemen alike are not
devoid of intelligence, but both are hu-
man. When the first blush Of pleased
self-esteem aroused by the super
subtle compliment has passed away the
engineer and the fireman are just as
competent as ever to continue thinking
in the ratio Of their respective capacities
for that intellectual function. What are
their reflections? Do they believe that
the cordiality of their illustrious friend
has outlasted his transit to the nearest
available soap and water?
It is we'll to remember, it seems In our
humble view, that all labor Is not made
up OF walking delegates, and that the
rank and file of the American army OF
workers is not deficient in self-respect
or intelligence. Collectively, it permits
itself sadly to be led astray and it toler-
ates to be done in its name many things
that work to its incalculable injury. But,
individually, 1T is honest in heart and
sound in the intellectuals, and that 1T can

A Correspondents "Why?"

A correspondent submits an extract
from our editorial columns Of Nov. ~,
as follows: whether the Canadian
system Of branch banks and note Sc
curity would work successfully in the
United States is perhaps doubtful and
asks @Why?'
Assuming that the question is asked
for information and not for the sake Of
raising an argument We would say that
no system of national banking and f.
nance which could be proposed for use
in this country is free from doubt Of its
successful Issue until it's suitability has
been demonstrated by practical expert
ence In operation.
AS for the absolute merits Of the
Canadian system, the success Of such a
system In such a land as the Canada
Of to-day Is no more logical argument
for its success in such a country as
the United States Of to-day than would
be a proposition that the bookkeeping
methods Of store in New England
town are equally suitable for the Stand
ard Oil Company.
Canadas area Is vast, but her indus
trial and financial interests are compare
lively compact, homogeneous, central
lied. Yet even she is now considering
an extension Of her fiscal system. For
further information about the matter, we
refer our correspondent to the budget
speech of the Hon. WILLIAM S. FIELDING
Canadian Minister Of Finance, on pages IL
and IA, as published in pamphlet form.

system will stretch with the rapidly in

ties of trade, commerce and finance in the
United States might result successfully
but until it has been 80 demonstrated we

Tho Senate and tho Petitions.

The Hon. REED SMooT has been elected
a Senator In Congress from Utah. The
Constitution provides that each House
Of Congress "shall be the Judge OF the
elections, returns and qualifications Of
its members" 1t is the business Of the
Senate Committee on Privileges and
Elections to consider Mr.. SHOOTS Gre
dentials and qualifications, to report
upon the same according to its judg-
ment; and 1t rests with the Senate to
accept, alter or reject that report.
A large number Of citizens, female
and male. have been signing petit
tions praying Congress to investigate
the charges made and filed against
Mr.. SMooT. A good slice Of every
number of the Congressional Record
is occupied with list of these petit
tions.
The main charge against Mr.. SMooT
is that he has plurality OF wives. He
denies the charge. Whether or not he
is theoretical polygamist is, of course,
no concern of Congress, which shall
make no law respecting an establishment
of religion or prohibiting the free exer-
else thereof" MIR. SMooT has as much
right to be Mormon as he would have
to be Baptist.
Presenting certain anti-Smoot petit
tions from Massachusetts, Senator HoAR,
chairman of the Committee on Privileges
and Elections, said
81 ask the unanimous consent OF the Senate to
say for the Information of the very excellent and
admirable citizens who have signed these petitions,
that the decision OF the title OF Senator to his seat
in the Senate is a purely judicial question, to be
determined upon evidence and the application to
the evidence OF the Constitution and laws OF the
United States and that |, seems TO me, with all due
respect 10 these petitioners. It Is as much out Of
place to address such petitions to this high court
which is to determine those cases. as II would be to
petition the Supreme Court OF the United States TO
take UP some case which was before 1t or decide II
In particular way"
This was rather higher ground than
can be defended successfully. The peo-
pie have the right to petition for what
they choose. The Senate \is political
! BODY; and even in the discharge Of its
highest judicial function, that of sitting
as a court of impea chment, it often boils
with political passion. Even the dis
tinguished chairman of the Senate Com
mittee on Privileges and Elections does
not always dwell on the austere heights
of jurisprudence.
The Hon. FRED T. DUBOIS of Idaho
criticised Mr. HoAR'S criticism the next
day in somewna, ChaGpandian fashion:
AN the petitioners ask Is that Senators shall study
this question. have had at least dozen Senators
say TO me that there nothing at all In this oase.
But these Christian people understand what they
doing They represent the moral though, OF this

sending petitions. will say TO them here In place,

Brigadier-General Woods Successor

The argument which is now urged
to the effect that failure to confirm the
nomination of Gen. WooD to be Major
General would result in dire confusion
in the service, and work a grievous
wrong to a considerable number of Off
GERS who have been affected by the Wood
nomination, seems to us entirely spe-
cious. It is probably introduced only
for effect.
The nomination of Gen. WOOD did not
make him a Major-General and thus
create vacancies which could be filled
Immediately. 1t was not definite and
legal appointment, but tentative step,
an act which is inchoate without the
confirmation of the Senate, under a
Constitutional provision which declares
that the President Shall nominate,
that is, select by name some individual
whom he prefers for given position,
and "by and with the advice and con-
sent of the Senate, shall appoint, &c.
The advice of the Senate does not seem
TO be asked; but until its consent is
civen, no appointment is made and no
vacancy is created.
1t is said that Gen. WooD vacated
his commission as Brigadier-General
upon being appointed Major-General.
We deny that he has been so appointed.
He has merely been nominated. If he
was in such hurry to assume his new
honors that he could not wait for the
Senatorial approval and Endorsement of
his title to them, his landing place must
be his own lookout. II there was q

Gal,autry in Expected) Action.

In what military engagement did Gen.
LEONARD WOOD ever illustrate his ca
pacity To command considerable body
Of men in action?
Certain testimonials are no Y quoted
In his behalf. They were good-naturedly
written after DR.. WOOD had become q
social, medical and political figure, but
before any one dreamed that there ever
would be or could be q question OF his
promotion to the chief command of the
United States Army
For instance, in March, 1893, President
MCKINLEY directed the Secretary OF
War to bestow upon DR.. WOOD medal OF
honor for meritorious service IN the
Apache campaign twelve years previous.
In the Department order awarding the
medal Secretary A1dER said:
-For several wseks, while In close pursuit OF
oEsoSrxos band and constantly expecting a" en-
counter, Assistant surgeon WOOD exercised tho
command Of detachment OF infantry 70 which he
requested assignment and that was then without
an ofnoer."
Constantly expecting an encounter.
We have italicized the words, in view OF
the provision Of the law under which the
medal OF honor was bestowed upon DR..
woop so long after that historic e1-
pectation OF an encounter. The act OF
March 8, 1858, authorizes the President
to present medals Of honor to heroes
thus described
such oficers, non commissioned of,cers and
pr,va.ss ss have most distinguished or who may
hereafter most distlnguish themselves In oef'on'"
There is absolutely nothing in the law
about medals Of honor for soldiers dis
t!rgu!shing themselves in expected
action. In DR.. WOODS case the distinc-
ton between expectation and action
seems to have been overlooked.
But suppose the expected had hap
pened, and Dr.. WOOD had commanded a
detachment Of infantry bravely and sue
cessfully during an encounter with GE-
RoN1Mos band. Would that now prove
lls military fitness to command the
United States Army
