seen him in action, and have noted his
ability as an organizer. And so even the
men among them who have differed with
him the most radically as to measures are
sounding his praises now that victory
seems to be the paramount object.
But will this senatorial support help Mr..
German? Such support has never helped
any other presidential aspirant. 1t has in
jured several. 1t completely disabled Mr..
Teller at Chicago in 1896 He had some
claims to consideration that year as the

choice of a senatorial cabal. and If nomi-
mated and elected would be the Senate's

the rank and file of the delegates. and they
refused to support him. His senatorial sup
port proved to be his only support. VIII

Judgeships and Home Rule,

From the Detroit Free Press.
If the people of New Mexico had no de-
sire in the premises except to enjoy the
services of an able and honorable man on
the bench as successor to Judge Mcmillan,
removed for cause they could not but be
gratified with the appointment of Judge
Clement Smith of the fifth judicial district
of Michigan In experience, learning and
character he Is a good man for the place.
The position is one that 1t has been his
laudabe ambition to fill. and congenial
work draws out the best judicial qualities
But leading and influential people in New
Mexico want a judge selected from among
their own people. They quote the national
republican platform in favor of home rule,
and insist that the policy be carried out
in their case. They could not urge any
other objection to Judge Smith, even if
they wished to. and their stand is made
solely upon the principle referred to.
The judge himself will have to acknowi-
edge the plank in the platform, and to adj
nit that the assertive opposition is natu-
raj. regardless of its standing in justice and
equity. In addition to this the past record
of federal judges sent to the territories
shows numerous weak spots, ranging from
pernicious activity in politics to offenses
much graver. There is a strong argument
in favor of judges who do not know a COM
munity. its social complications and preju-
dices or its political factions, but the
usages Of the country affirm the other side Of
the proposition and 1t is as natural for the
territories as the states to want their own
judges. Judge Smith has the satisfaction
Of knowing that the opposition Is to a sys-
TEN and not to himself

Judge Parker.

Judge Parker goes to Georgia next week
by invitation to address the Bar Associa-
ton of that state. The trip will be OF
rational interest. and the address will be
widely read. A presidential nomination is
in the scale. Judge Parker Is much fan
c,ed' by many prominent eastern demo-
Gratis and by some prominent southern
democrats for the place Of standard-bearer
next year. His reputation and his political
acquaintance are largely local. His friends
however are persuaded that 1t Is only nee
essary for the country to know him to
share in their appreciation of him. and this
Is to be his introduction to a locality where
support is expected. On the surface this
will not appear. But little below the
surface everything connected with the trip
Is political. and in time the full signifi-
canoe of the maneuver and it's results will

The Iowa Republicans.

The democrats of Iowa have spoken. and
now we are to hear from the republicans.
What will be their message?
So much has been said about the Iowa
idea," and so little of 1t to the point, that
the real proposition has become somewhat
obscured. 1t contains nothing inimical to
protection wisely and justly applied 1t Is
thoroughly in keeping with the teachings Of
Mr.. Blaine Mr.. Mckinley and Mr.. Dingley,
the foremost champions of protection since
the close of the war for the Union. At the
time the Mckinley bill was being drafted.
Mr.. Blaine, in some observations on reci-
procity, showed that he did not believe In
Chinese wall tariff. AT the time the tariff
bill bearing his name was fashioning, Mr..
Dingley shaped his course so as to provide
for lowering of duties when the opera
lions of the new law should have worked
the ends desired of it. And Mr.. Mckinley
at Buffalo spoke words which fully justify
everything the republican revisionists are
now asking. Why then this charge on the
part of the standpatters that the revision
lists are free traders in disguise seeking to
make a breach in the walls for the de-
struction of the country?
Gov. Cummins is to be renOminated. He
has given his state a good administration.
with entire safety rest his case with the
people. But he stands for something more
than local issues, strong as they are. His
name is identified with the proposition to
lower tariff duties where they are no longer
necessary to serve the legitimate objects of
protection and his position on that ques-
ton will enter into the campaign. Neces-
sarly, therefore. the platform to be adopted
must be one upon which he can consist
emily and conscientiously appeal for sup
port. Any other platform would be an af-
front to him and a source of weakness to
the party with him as the candidate.
The situation Is not new. Mr.. Cummins is
now in office as the result of campaign
waged on the same lines. The Iowa idea"
has been submitted to the voters of the
state and been Endorsed at the polls by
large majority. Nothing has occurred since
to weaken. but much to strengthen, 1t.
1t seems absurd therefore to assert. as
some newspapers are doing. that back
down is on the cards and is about to be
executed.

public TO the inspectors reports of 1899,

1t is of no sort of Importance whether

him. for neither the wealth nor the wiles of
Wall street could make a man or break

jority of the people favor his election. In
any large sense the concentrated capital of
Wall street never ruled the country and
never will. The business men all over the
country are for Roosevelt: his campaign
will run itself. and such a campaign can
easily get all the money it wants Let 1t
once be widely understood that Wall street
Is opposed to the election of Roosevelt on
account of his attitude in the matter of the

democracy should nominate a man who
could obtain the support of Wall street ne
could not possibly obtain anything like his

Auditors Petty's Report.

Auditor Petty's report to the Commits
sioners on the subject of the Watson de-
falcation is essentially his personal ex-
PLANTATION and defense. reciting the history
of the case so far as is necessary to make
plain his own relation to the crime. the
criminal and the system which by It's
looseness permitted the crime. 1t is his
purpose later to submit detailed state
ment. explanatory of the precise method
by which Watson was enabled to conduct
his populations. stating the amount of his
entertainments and making clear the exact
condition in which his stealings have left
the funds.
The dominant note of Mr.. Petty's state
ment Is one of regret at his failure to
suspect Watson and of complaint against
those who. knowing or suspecting Watson's
dishonesty. gave him no hint of the risk he
ran in entrusting so much to this one clerk
In this connection he particularly mentions
Mr.. Lapham. the bookkeeper of the engi-
neer department, whose duty 1t was to
check Watson's accounts, and who. as his
business associate, had every reason to
know his personal circumstances; DR.. Far
don. whose name Watson had forged when
a lad and officials and citizens generally
to the extent that Watson's recklessness of
expenditure and former lack of business
morality were known to them. This raises
a question of the accountability of those
who. knowing of wrong condition, remain
silent when it is none of their business
to interfere. Certainly Mr.. Petty has rea-
son to feel aggrieved that he was allowed
to continue unaware of conditions which, if
known. would have caused him at once to
of ba no do
and doubtless to secure the dismissal of his
faithless clerk
This statement by the venerable auditor,
whose personal integrity is so far above
reproach to permit him to continue to
solute confidence of the community, will
win for him the sympathy of the public
There is no installing the bitterness of his
self-reproacheS nor Is 1T possible to doubt
the genuineness of his declarations of en-
tire ignorance of WatsOns peculiar meth
DDS. 1t is great pity that Mr.. Petty, oc-
cupying a position of fiduciary trust, should
have entertained so high regard for men
as to hold this one man in his perfect con-
fdence. 1t Is unfortunate that when he
discovered evidences of his wrong doing
he did not at once report the matter to
the Commissioners. 1t is to be deplored
that he did not realize sooner and more
wildly the dangers of the audit system
which had been adopted at the instance,
he now urges, of the engineer department
The public interest in the report explain
ing the precise method, amount and effect
of the defalcatiop is whetted by this per-
sonal statement of the auditor this piteous
ontcry of the victim of trusted and

Captain Mollie Pitcher.

Today up in Freehold, N. J., they are
celebrating the 125th anniversary Of the
battle of Monmouth, which was fought on
the 2Sth of June, 1778. Today's celebration
takes the place of Sunday observance of
the occasion The heroine of the day Is
Moll Pitcher in whose name the anniver-
sary is recalled by many Americans. Moll
Pitcher is. indeed, to some minds the finest
type of woman patriot. She was Amazon
ian in her methods and her simplicity and
yet efficiency of contributing to the cause
of freedom. She was the wife, 1t is of
course remembered, of an Irish cannonier,
who was doing splendid service in the front
of the battle line when he was struck by a
British ball. Mollie, who had followed his
fortunes and was making herself useful by
bringing water from we'll to quench the
thirst of the troops, came back to the guns
with her filled bucket and found her hus-
band lying dead by the side of the piece.
No Mysteries or useless bewailing for her.
Pitcher was dead and beyond recall. There
was hard work to do in his stead. 1t was
mans work. but woman could do 1t. So
Mollie did not hesitate, did not wait for
orders or requests, but took up the hammer
which Pitchers stiffening fingers still
grasped and served that gun as well as he
had served it, and continued to the end of
the battle to swab out its powder blackened
throat as long as there were messages for
it to send to the British lines. Mollie
Pitcher was one of those souls quick to ad
just themselves to new conditions and to
respond to emergencies. The world does
not altogether relish the spectacle of wo-
men in war, but it will never hesitate to
pay tribute to Moll Pitcher. who, content
to serve humbly as drawer of water, could
reach higher plane of usefulness when
the need came,
