AMERICAN EXTRAVAGANZA

Economy in this country. and espe-
cially on the Pacific coast, says the
San Francisco Bulletin, is almost dis
reputable. A man is ashamed to ac-
knowledge that he walks to save car
fare or order a light lunch to save the
expense of a heavy one. One never
finds Californians ordering one portion
of meat at a restaurant for two per-
sons even when they known that one
portion would be more than enough
for both. There was a time, not very
long ago, when people in San Fran
cisco disdained to accept change from
a quarter of a dollar, and especially
in barrooms the pOrters thrived and
grew rich on the small silver con-
temptuOusly called 'chicken-feed,"
which patrons left on the bar.
To be saving in the United States
a man must have moral courage. The
man who refuses to pay more than a
reasonable price for clothes, let us
say, or for dinners, and who puts the
money thus saved into a bank feels
like a thief; and people talk and act
as though to save money were in fact
to steal it.
Only in extravagant America, how
ever, is economy disreputable. Here,
The Savannah morning news., 1903-02-01

as some one has written, where one
man is as good as another. he must be
lavish of his money; being all sover-
eigns, we must be as prodigal as
princes. But in Europe no one re-
spects a man the less or treats him
the worse for trying to live cheaply.
People of wealth and breeding do not
disdain to practice little economies in
Europe. They dare not to order a
big dinner when they want only a
light collation.. They are not afraid
to travel second class or to put up at
the quieter and less expensive first
class hotels.
This extravaganza with money is a
natural trait of rich people, and it
would do less harm if only the really
rich Americans displayed it. But the
middle-class Americans, striving to
show themselves as good as the mil
lionaire countrymen, are the most
prodigal of all, and 1t is they who,
while spending more than their means
made reasonable, have created the
general opinion in Europe that every
American traveller is an unspeaka bly,
opulent person to rob whom is the pa
triotic duty of every European brigand
that goes under thetname of inn-keep-
er, guide, merchant, servant or 9TH
ers of that ilk.

PLUTOCRACY I'm THE SENATE

One result of the immense growth of
a senator's power and influence is the
temptation thereby offered to MASTER
full men OF wealth. To such men there
is no pleasure comparable to that of
exercising power. The Joy of the ruler
is dear to them, and there is no posi-
ton in this country like a senatorship
for breeding that ecstasy. An indict-
ment against wealth in politics, per Sc,
is folly; but wealth in public life, I'M
guided and uniformed. untempered by
a patriotic and statesmanlike regard
for the general welfare, is hostile to
the country's best interest.
1t is not true that rich public men
invariably disregard or overlook the
general welfare; they are often our
wisest eounsellors. 1t is true, however,
The Savannah morning news., 1903-02-01

few are chosen. But nobody can ex-
anime the work of those few without
perceiving that for veal or woe-prin-
cipally for woe-they know their bust
ness.
"Of course. it goes without saying
that a very considerable amount of f1c-
ton is published in England which is
just as mild and just as innocuous as
tinrSd milk. To this pulling variety of
fiction, however, the English do not ap-
pear to be very greatly drawn. 1t crops
up with great regularity every publish
ing season, it is solemnly reviewed in
the critical journals, and it even stands
shoulder by shoulder with stronger
meat in the bookshops. But the fact
remains that it does not sell: to see

Second Edition" on it is the rarest
occurrence. In fine, the English will
have their fiction spiced, and highly
spiced, or not at all. Mealy mouthed
writer's, over-reticent. over-blushful,
over-austere writer's, they do not want;
neither have they any admiration for
writer who is plagued with feeling
for style, and who may be reckoned an
artist in the collocation of words.
Their muCh-vaunted Meredith has new
er had the sale of Crockett or a Bar
RE or a Hooking, or, for that matter
of a ]. X. Jerome. The English have
little or not literary taste. little or no
literary acumen, and they expect their
fctionists to give them anything and
everything save what is edifying.

New York, Jan. 31.-Lemuel Ely
Quigg, who has been mixed up in the
submarine boat business through the
stories of alleged attempts at bribery
told by Philip Dolin and Montague
Lessler, began life as a newspaper man
with literary warnings.
Those who know his work and his
capabilities in the handling of words
believe he could have won out hand

such a course would have made him

For, according to all accounts, Mr..
Quigg who was not at all burdened
with cash ten years ago, is now very
COMFORTABLY endowed with the dollars.
1t was in 1892 that Quiggs
star rose above the political horizon.
After working some time On county
weekly on Long Island he had done
service as a reporter on the Times of
this city and from its employ had
graduated to the editorial page of
the Tribune.
He was an attache of that paper
when the two Dakotas, Montana and
Wyoming were made states. Whitelaw
Reid sent him West to write up the
new CONFERENCE.-The III Inc COu4 SC
of his Western sojourn he met and
was greatly liked by Thomas H. Car
ter. Carter was made chairman of
the Republican Campaign Committee
in 1892, and, through him Quigg was
made a member of the committees
staff, his special function being to get
up the documents.
Through the acquaintance Quigg
made during that campaign with the
public men of the country he managed
to enter public life, winning, in 1894,
a seat in the House of Representatives
from a New York city district that
hitherto had been consistently Demo-
cratic for years.
It was through his experiences of
1892. also, that he became editor of the
New York Press when the present
management succeeded the ownership
which followed Robert p. Porter's. 1t

WINTER is here. The nights are

Very few remain safe from climatic

chronic catarrh. A cough rapidly be-
comes consumption. La grippe under

that their first tendency Is to consider
the effect of proposed legislation on
special interests. 1t is also unquestion-
ably an evil that men who have no
talent for public life should attain to
it's highest honors merely becauye they
are rich. In the present Senate there
are more than a score of men who
would not be there but for their pes
session of wealth. 1t is not true thai
