The Minority and the Currency.

The opposition of Senator Daniel, of Virginia, to legislation for reform of the national currency laws is met by decia- rations from Senator German that the democrats ought not to stand in the way of such reform. The further circum- stance that John G. Carlisle. who was secretary of the treasury in Cleveland s cabinet, has been in conference with President Roosevelt with regard to fi- nancial legislation also indicates that there is now no unanimity among demo- crats against currency reform, and gives rise to hope that before con- gress meets such opposition as has az peared will be entirely stilled. Never thelesS, it is not to be overlooked that
 as the senate in practice legislates only by unanimous consent. it is quite pos sible for a few determined senators to block the much-desired reform. Sena- tors Daniel, Teller. and Money. who may take an irrecoricilable attitude, could easily seriously embarIa ass an ef- fort for financial legislation. if net de- feat it. Unless MT. German. after con- ference with the minority party. can convince all of the wisdom of permitt- ing the republican majority to take full responsibility for financial legisla ton ana oI reIralnlnS rom making money an issue in the coming national cam paign, the difficulty of passing a cur renoy measure will be great. Gormar, however. on his rcappearance in the senate, was accepted as the democratic leader of that body with glad unanimi- ty. It may be possible. therefore, that he will be able to so impress his views or all of his colleagues as 10 cause them to forego opposition. even against their own judgment.-Pittsburg Telegraph

The World Is Changing.

It would be well for the Saographcrs to suspend their publications for a while. The world is moving so rapidly that maps and typographical descrp- tions of today are wrong, incomplete and useless tomorrow. It is mere waste of money to buy an expensive atlas nowadays. The business of an up-to-date mapmaker at present is sim ply to issue bulletins and report prog reSS.
 The whole continent of Africa is in q state of geogra phical transformation Within a compara lively short period it was possessed mostly by aborigines Now there is a great movement toward the center by France and England on the north and by Portugal and Eng land, Germany and France on all other sides.

Prayer of the Kentucky Mariner.

Col. Henry Watterson, an illustric'us marine from the old Kentucky shore. shipped on Sir Thomas LiPton's yacht, the Erin, Thursday. and he contributed wind to the slack sails and hope to the quester of the Cup. In these picus words did the true Knight of the Star Eyed Goddess breathe his good wishes to the Irish Knight:
 Sir Thomas. may God grant that you have the best boat

Army and Navy in Training.

That the enemy has effected d land ing on the coast of Maine and has otherwise secured great advantages in the bloodless war which is now going on in that part of the world we learn with a consterration, which is partly ameliorated by the knowledge that no other but an American enemy could perform that trick. That is we think that it would take an American enemy to do it.
 The chief object of the maneuvers was to see whether it could be done at all or not, and if so to make provision so that it would be in the future inn This mimic war at which so many are apt to sheer is not being conducted for the purpose of wasting gunpowder or to protect the officers of the navy from ennui.
 We learned in the course of the Spanish war that We had good many things more to learn about the art of war and there is no better way to
  tice. The practice afforded by a sham battle is perhaps not so beneficial as that which would attend actual hos tilities where the results are definite and not reached sy the observance of a set of previously agreed upon rules.
 What the army and the navy are now about is as near war as anything we can have in a time of peace and they must put up with it until some thing better offers. We have a slight promise of some actual practice in Turkish waters and if the promise is realized the exercises through which the army and the navy have been going will prepare the latter for more scien- tific performances along the shores of

What Was the Motive?

Until further details have been re- ceived of the attempted assas- sination of the American vice consul at Beirut it might be well to hold the Turk responsible only for failure to keep order in his en- pire, and not to assume that any off, cial is responsible for. the outrage. are not held in high regard but it is not apparent what motive, on the part of any of them, could have urged the effort at killing and there was the equal certainty that the government would be held to accountability by this gov ernment.
 It is not two weeks since the assassi- nation of a Russian vice consul in 8 different part Of Turkey. That country, bad and misdirected as it is. could not hope to gain from the slaughter of the representatives of friendly govern ments at a time when it is not in good repute anyhow. It is true, that it has been said that the killing of the Rus san vice consul was QOne Dy d petty official in the course of a quarrel, but so far the details of that murder are lacking.
 It is not to be forgotten that at the time of the abduction of Miss Stone by Macedonian brigands there was a theory that the object of the crime was not so much to secure the ransom as to further put Turkey in bad light and prove to the world the need of the reforms for which the Macedonian committee was then clamoring and for which it is now fighting. It is barely possible that the attempted murder of the representative of the United States and the assasiuatio of the Russian vice consul will be found to have been committed by factions unfriendly to the government.
 Even slight apology for Turkey is not a pleasant task.

CURRENT COMMENT
The President and hr. Folk.

The meeting of Joseph w. Folk with the president at Oyster Bay to discuss eXtradition measures, for which pla ms have been made, will be an unusual ex- perience for a local official in Missouri. 1t must be remembered that MT. Folk is not a senator or a congressman or even q governor, but merely a prose cutting attorney ir the city of St. Louis.
 For man holding the position which MT. Folk occupies to be called to con- fer with the president of the United States is most uncommon. and it will set the general putlic to inquiring why the politicians of Missouri are seeking to pelittle and discredit man who has brought such distinction to the state. It will be quite a puzzle to the outside world to find reason why the gover nor of Missouri should persistently de- cline to even mention the name of Mir Folk in his speeches, and why other aspiring politicians should slur. in the.T public addresses, the work of the St. Louis prosecutor.
 The electors of Missouri. however. will hardly overlook the distinguishes compliment to MT. Folk implied in 9 visit of conference to the president, and they will have to think for some time before they can recall an instance of any other candidate for governor of Missouri having been honored in the same way.
 It may be that a prophet is not with out honor save in his own country, but the state machine and it's adherentS will about take in all the Missourians who subscribe to the notion that the exalted estimate which the nation places on Joseph Folk makes him ineligible 'o higher honors in his own state-Kan- saS City Star.

More Imperialism.

Now that President Roosevelt has re- viewed an American fleet in time of peace, there will doubtless be another spasm Of imperialistic fears. Ali the gentlemen that wish to know whither We are drifting will be writing com munications to the newspapers implor- ing them for information as to when these evil tendencies are to cease. Ger tainly, we cannot maintain demo- cratic form of government if the presi- dent is to review a fleet. The German emperor reviews fleets, and Germany is not democratic. The king of Great Britain reviews fleets, and everybody knows that Great Britain is a mon archy The president of France some times reviews a fleet, too; but they have a standing army in France, and the natives love the devil of militarisni-
 The review off Oyster Bay will nec- essarily conjure all manner of imper ialistic fears to the timid. All the ships of the North Atlantic squadron were on dress parade. Thousands of shots were fired in saluting the president of the United States. One torpedo boat ram- med another just as British torped" boats are prone to do on such Qcca- sions The president visited the ships and made speeches, precisely 2s tn. king and kaiser generally do. He com- plimented the officers and the men as if he had been a war lord, and the men displayed the blood-thirsty tendencies of the military spirit by cheering the president. When it was all oyer, Ad- miral Dewey expressed his approval, IS Lord Charles Beresford might have done, and said there was no reason to worry because a little paint had been scraped eff a torpedo boat destroyer. insinuating that worse things actually took place in time of war.
 Surely, these tendencies are likely tc lead us into all manner of foreign com plications if we yield to them. It IS the popular theory that d navy is merely d formal sort of an institution to justify the existence of Annapolis, and that ii we must have d raty. the less We say about tt the better. This reckless parad- ing of battleships and this cncouraginG of the crews to be fighting men cannot be too severely reprehended.-Detr Free Press Qnd. Dem.).

The Weariness of Sir Thomas.

It cannot be said that Sir Thomas Lipton has run out of sporting blood, but when a man has spent more than s1,5o0, 900 to no purpose lis blood will have naturally grown a little thin. Sir Thomas has given out that he will not build another challenger for the Amer ica's cup. We do rot believe that any bo6y on either this or the other side of the water will charge him With having suddenly got cold feet.
 He has paid a high compliment to America in his expression of the be- lie; that the boat building brains are all on. this side of the Atlantic, a belief that will not be willingly shared, though it must have been forced upon him by this time. by Designer Fife.
 The Shamrock III after all the pre- liminafy tests and even after the first of the contests, was believed by both her maker and her owner to be the best that could be built and no inn provements were suggested to either of them. There is no doubt in the mind of any yachtsman that she IS much better than the best of her pre- decessors, but tie races for the cup have so far shown that she is three years below the American standard Of excellence.
 In the trial races, though the Re liance was proved to be the strongest candidate for the position of defender, oi.I, r11p Columbia or the Constitution had been chosen fer that honorable office the re- suit would have been the same and the geographical location of the cup would have been unchanged by the thirteenth contest.
 But it does not appear that the builder of the new Sha amrock has been wholly to blame. The superior show ing made by the American boat must be due in part to the more skillful handling of her. In one race the Sham rock might have been the winner by eighteen seconds ani still have lost the race by bad start. In the same way she might in the race of Thursday. not COuHtlES tillit dllONdICt, nave ouON herself to be the faster boat by a min ute and still have lost by a second. The blunders oi the crew of the Sham rock were not all mode at the start. Her skipper was continually out-ma- neuvercd by the resourceful Captain Barr.
 There is the rumor of a proposition though it is rather unreasonable, that after the close of the contest there will be change of crews; that is, that the Reliance's crew will sail the Shamrock against her own crew in the Reliance. That is an unheard of performance and would hardly serve any other purpose than to find out the real difference between the sailing qualities Of the two boats. But that would not absolutely determine the diff ference for while the good qualities of the Irish boat would be brought out those Of the Reliance would not be so fully developed.

 It is hardly to be hoped though that the sick man will need such heroic treatment but if it should be found necessary to his restoration to reason, the navy will be found with its hand in by reason of the exercises which it has been put through along the Maine course.
