ALFRED MosELY.s WORK.

So long as England continues to produce
patriots of the Alfred Mosely kind she is
not likely to fall behind the world in in
dustry. education or any of the other essen
tails Of modern civilization. Mr.. Mosely is
one of the new South African mining mill
ionaires. and. like Cecil Rhodes and others
of this remarkable group of empire. build
ers, his method of using the great wealth
Dame Fortune has cast in his lap contrasts
very favorably with the use made of new
found riches by our American mining mill
ionaires
He has not bought a seat in parliament or
struggled for peerage. He has not star
tied London with a palace of unusual mag

entertainments, or efforts to marry daugh-
tiers TO dukes and earls. He is doing
great work fer England ard establishing

ago sent to America a very able commission
composed of practical manufacturers and
intelligent mechanics, who made an ex-

this country. Their report has proven
highly valuable to British manufacturers
and British workmen, since it pointed out

of the efficiency OF the American mechanic.
One of the inevitable conclusions of this
report was that much of the American
mechanics ability was due TO his general
intelligence and resourcefulness. which was
in turn largely due to the thoroughness of
the common school system.
Following up this line Of inquiry, Mr..
Mosely has now brought to America at
his own expense a large commission of
educational experts, who have scattered
over the country and are inquiring closely

| the higher institutions OF learning, partic-
ularly the scientific and technical schools

others in which we fall behind. while, if

TENS of Germany and France, we shall

might also be remarked that when day la

quit laboring with their hands and so to
work with their heads. and then they learn
what real hard. exhausting work is. 1t is
very different proposition from giving a
hand with a gang for five minutes and
resting for half an hour before there is an
other lift: from adjusting a machine every
half hour and watching it run the rest of
the time. or from soldering along In the
way the average laborer of to-day carries

The Indianapolis News, which supported
Mayor Hoffman and told the people they
could believe in his promises to wipe out
the winerooms and enforce the laws holding
the liquor traffic within bounds, yesterday
had this to say on the subject of the Sun
day drinking in saloons and dives:
Further violations of the liquor law yes
terday show that the police have hardly
drawn the lines tight enough yet. Eternal
vigilance 1T not only the price of liberty,
but the price of law enforcement, and IL
is the price we expect the police force to
pay. Prompt arrest and VIGOROUS prosecu-
ton or the vioiators of the law will soon
convince them that it is cheaper to obey
the law than to violate it, and saloon
keepers, like other people, win follow the
policy that is most to their advantage The
vast majority of law-abiding citizens of In
dianapolis are opposed to an ''open town"
and interpretation of the law. Order

of people or certain members Of any class

During the campaign Mr.. Hoffman fire.
quently quoted the statement of the Jour-
nal that law violation by liquor sellers
could be stopped by the administration
within a day at any time, and promised
that IL he were elected the word should
be given that would put end to the wine
rooms, dives and illegal liquor selling. While
Mr.. Bookwalter was mayor the Journal
declared that all that was needed was an
earnest effort to enforce the law and it
could be enforced. The same is true now.
If the saloon keepers were given to under
stand that the administration is in earnest
and would put them out of business-which
| it has ample power to do-whenever they
were caught violating the law, there would
| be observance of the law Few, If any
| liquor dealers would dare jeopardize their

| operating bawdy house attachment. And
| the few that did dare could readily be
handled by the police. If there was no ex-
cuse for laxity under Mr.. Bookwalter, how
much less is there under Mr.. Hoffman,
whose election was due to his specific and
| oft-repeated promises to enforce the law?

The statement OF Governor Durbin pub
lished in yesterdays Journal will go far
toward clarifying the political atmosphere
in this State. and should have an excellent
effect in allaying a slight tendency toward
Republican factional disturbance. The
tendency is not pronounced and would prob
ably have worked its cure. but Gov
ernor Durbins statement will hasten the
cure. In the first place. by stating en-
phaticnlly that he is not an aspirant for
Senator Beveridge's seat in the United
States Senate, he removes all ground for
anxiety on the part of the senator's friends
and disposes of a batch of rumors which
probably never had any foundation. Hav-
ing made this statement in positive terms.
the Governor goes further and says: Just
as frankly and emphatically 1 desire TO say
that 1 favor the reelection of Mr.. Good
rich as chairman of the Republican state
COMMITTEES and on the same grounds as
those which afford the Justification for the
return of Senator Beveridge, namely. that
successful experience qualities for useful
ness" This disposes of all suspicion that
the Governor favors change In the chair
manship Of the state committee after the
successful management OF one campaign.
He says ne would regard a change at this
time as contrary to party precedent and
to good party policy. Finally. the Governor
| states very frankly his views regarding the
function of a political committee and its
duty to make party success its paramount
object. THE function of a political COM
mittee," he says, lis to conduct campaigns,
not to nominate candidates." and in pur-
wrong 10 organize committees either for
| or against individual candidates. There can
be no doubt but this is the correct view of
party organization. Political committees
are trustees for the whole party, and TO
| make them agencies machines for indi-
viduals is contrary to political ethics and
| good party policy. The Journal is not
aware that anything of the kind is being
attempted in this State, but the Governor

not want any facticnal fights in this State,

the attempt to make Individual leadership
paramount to party success. That course
invariably causes fractional disturbance in
party, and as the Republican party in
Indiana is not big enough to divide such a
course should find no favor here. The Re-
publican party in this State has become
great and strong because it has been united

ciples to men and the success of the party

Governors reminder is wise and timely
that ''the cause Of Indiana Republicans

KAISER Is IMPROVING
INFLAMMATION THAT FOLLOWED
THE OPERATION is DIMINISHING.
Doctors, However, Say 1t Will By a
Week Before the Wound in the
Larynx II Healed.

BERLIN, Nov. "a bulletin concern
ing the condition of Emperor William, who
was operated on Saturday for the removal
of a Jpolypus from the larynx, was issued
this morning at the new palace, Pottsdam.
1t follows:
Inflammation, which naturally follows a
reaction from the operation. already is di-
minishing. We can, therefore. be satisfied
with the appearance of the left vocal chord.
Nevertheless the healing of the wound prob
ably will require another week. The En-
perors general condition is good. His tenn
perature and pulse are normal
This was signed by Drs. Won Leuthold,
Schmidt and Ilberg. The court circular
states that the Emperor this morning per-
sonally heard the report of Herr Won Luz
canus, chief Of the civil cabinet. He worked
several hours this afternoon on government
business and wrote long letter TO King
Edward congratulating him on his BIRTH
day. 1T is worth being i'll to receive q
thing like this, the Emperor is reported
as saying when some chrysanthemums
were handed to him to-day Several SINH
lar indication of regard were made by poor
persons at Pottsdam.
Prof. Bernard Fraenkel the eminent
in Sn nteTyeW to or sRe ssd be b
concern about the Emperor's condition is
unwarranted. The facts absolutely as
stated In this mornings bulletin. The pe0-
pie are only agltated because they remem-
Der that the first reports about Emperor
Frederick did not disclose his true malady,
but this time the bulletin Is correct. You
can reassure America"
DIR. Moritz Schmidt. of Frankfort-on-
Main. who removed the poiypus, has per-
formed thousands of similar operations The
Emperor has known DR.. Schmidt intimate ly
ever since the time when, crown prince,
he went to Saline to see his father, and
took the doctor in the same car with him.
1t was, therefore, the Emperor's own desire
to intrust him with the operation. The lat
ter lasted only a minute two.
Prof. Johannes Orth, the famous cancer
specialist, who succeeded the late Professor
Virchow in the chair of pathological anato-
my at the University of Berlin, says IT
have authority to declare as specifically as
possible that not the slightest suspicion of
any dangerous formation exists. Ii is mat
ter explained in any laryngologfcal book.
With persons who, like the Emperor, are
compelled by their professional duties to
speak often in public there are often ferma-
tions on the vocal chords which we call
polypus. They are. of course, hindrance
to the voice, and accordingly their exc
crescences are removed As for the rest |
am unacquainted with the clinical side of
the case, but L believe 1 am warranted in
saying that the Emperor I'm eight days will
again have full possession of his vocal pow

ALL MUST PAY TAXES
NO PERSON EXEMPT UNDER THE
LAWS OF NEW JERSEY.
Interesting Batch of Decisions by the
Supreme COurt-New Trials I'm the
Laura Biggar Case.

TRENTON, N. j., Nov. s.-The New Jer-
sey Supreme Court to-day held to be I'M
constitutional the law under which frenen
are allowed exemption from taxation on
property to the value of $500. The court
holds that the Constitution does not permit
any tax exemptions to persons. so that so
days decision applies equally to veterSns
of the civil war, their widows and members
of the National Guard. who were allowed
exemptions. This decision will mean Ia Sa-
ton throughout the State of 50. 7i9, 600 worth
of property now exempt. The court disfin-
guishes in its decision between the exersp-
ton of property such as churches and ex-
emption of individuals.
The Supreme Court to-day in the jersey
City tax case decided that the boundary
line between New York and New Jersey
is in the middle of the Hudson river, and
in the middle of New York bay, and tlat
the New Jersey sovereignty is co-extenelve
with this boundary. The decision sustains
an assessment against the New York Efec-
trio Railroad on land under water between
the middle Of New York bay and the low
water lands on the New Jersey shore.
The court set aside the action of the
creasing the assessment of the New Jersey
Zinc Company in that county from $4,000
to $3S45,U0 The appeal OF the Conti-
mental Tobacco Company from an assess
ment of $250,000 in Jersey City was set
aside because the appeal had not been
made within the statutory time. This re-
verses the State Board of Taxation.
The court to-day ordered a new trial in
the case of Samuel Stanton and Charles
c. Hendrick, who were convicted in Mon
mouth county of conspiracy in the Laura
Biggar case. The court held that the trial
Judge erred in admitting testimony tending
to show improper conduct upon the Part
of Miss Biggar at the time she claimed to
be the wife of Henry NJ. Bennett, whose
will she was contesting on the contention
that she was his widow. The court holds
this testimony had no relevancy. to the
charge of conspiracy, and that it may have
prejudiced the jury in their findings.

The interview with Governor Durbin in
yesterdays Journal, in which the Governor
stated his position on the senatorial ques-
ton and on the reorganization of the Re-
publican state committee, has attracted
wide attention and created much comment
among politicians. Almost without excep-
ton the position taken by the Governor
and his views as to the proper procedure
for the best interests of the party have
met with unqualified approval, and the
general expression is one of thankfulness
that such counsels are prevailing and that
an end will be put TO the fight on the
reorganization of the state committee The
opinion is freely expressed now that the
contests in several districts over the cleo
ton of state committeeman will be AMIGA
bly, adjusted. and that Mr.. Goodrich will be
unanimously reelected state chairman, just
as Senator Beveridge will be unanimously
selected as the Republican candidate for
United States senator to succeed himself.
Xxx
At the Governors office yesterday it was
declared that statements to the effect that
Governor Durbin had announced himself
Internationally for Senator Beverage did
not correctly interpret the formal statement
on the senatorial situation appearing in the
morning papers.
1.-The statement is issued on the assump-
ton that with this obstacle of the Govern
or's alleged candidacy removed, and the
attendant assurance of clear field for
reelection, the junior senator will willingly
take such steps, by Withdrawing opposition
to Chairman Goodrich, will assure har-
mony within the party" said those speak
ing for the Governor. Should the fractional
struggle be continued, now that the junior
senator has the assurance that Governor
Durbin is not opposing him, new issue
will be raised by the projection into Indiana
politics of the doctrine that the party
shouldl be organized for purposes other
than the promotion of general party inter-
ests throughout the State the Governor
puts Ii in his statement. The question OF
whether the party should be organized in
the interests Of the whole party or in the
interests and at the dictation of an indi-
vidual, with the consequences such a pro-
cedure would imply. will, in the opinion of
the Governor. mark a crisis in the affairs
of the Republican party in Indiana Of vastly
greater Significance and bearing the
future of the party and of the State itself
than any mere question of who is to be
senator. LII this issue is raised. say the
close friends Of the Governor. there will be
no question TO his attitude upon IT
Whether or not IL is raised, in the Gov
errors opinion, will depend entirely upon
