brought to bear in dealing with tan Philippines. Indeed. when President Mckinley selected Mir. Root for the great office of war secretary, he named the man who was pre-eminentiy fitted for the task of solving the problems then arising before the department.
 Mir. Root, to begin with, was one or the greatest lawyers in the country and on account of the peculiar nature of the questions connected with our pacifcaticn and government of the Philippines, it was necessary for him to be, i1 effect, the legal adviser of the administration and of congress in all matters related to our insular pos required to be diplomat as well as an executive officer How we'll he has per formed all his work will not be recoe nized fully, perhaps. for years to conie. The friar question, for illustration. was full of possibilities of the gravest na
 ture. A man less diplomatic, less re- sourceful, and less far-sighted, might have committed this government 60 mistakes of a deplorable character. But in this as in all other matters, Nr. Roo; acted with a clearness of mind and a poise which stamped him as a man of real greatness. Probably, however. the achievement of which he is most proud is the acceptance by congress Of his plan for a reorganization of the army, the general staff bill having passed 2 few days ago, after years of energetic labor in it's behalf.

The Addicks Game in Delaware.

For four years the state Of Delaware has been without q senator because oI the determination of large element in the republican party of that state to exclude Gas Addicks from the senate Ever since MT. Addicks became a can didate he has been able to elect enough members of the legislature to hold the balance of power, and he has refused fo permit an election in which he was not included. But last week he ostensibly withdrew from the race, and yat the tangle appears to be no nearer solu- ticn. The withdrawal had a string to it in the shape of a requirement. that of the two senators to be elected one of them must be an Addicks follower.
 The republicans opposed to AddickS fear a trap. Governor Hunn is an Ad- dicks man, and it is feared that if an Addicks dummy is elected he will resign as soon as the legislature aG- journs. and that Governor Hum will then appoint Addicks himself to fill the vacancy. And, indeed the Ii =a is not unreasonable. Addicks is many times a millionaire. and his one ambition is io acquire a seat in the United States senate. And when a man of the Ad- dicks qualities sets his heart on a sen atorship it seems to be merely a matter of ways and means and question O. time.
 It is to the credit of the republican party Of Delaware, however, that it has stood out against all the influences brought to bear in favor of Addicks. and for so long has consented to go without representation in the senate rather than bring disgrace upon the party and the state.

Settling the Alaskan Boundary,

The jingO statesmen who always are hoping for trouble between the UniteI States and England. have been dfsap- pointed by the senate's prompt ratfl- cation of the Alaskan boundary treaty. It sounds quite heroic and patriotic. as eX-Secretary Foster remarked re- gently in an open letter, to VOW that the territory in question belongs to our country and that not an inch thereof shall be surrendered either as the result of an arbitration or otherwise Frontier lines between conterminous countries, however, cannot be arbi- trarily marked out by one CT them without cooperation of the other Our boundary on the Mexican side, though fixed by treaty far more clearly than the Alaskan boundary. has been the subject of investigation and determina- tion by numerous commissions durfn.; q period of more than fifty years; and only within quite recent times has the d4marcation been approximately completed.
 In general terms the frontier line Of Alaska was fixed by the AnglG- Russia Il treaty Of 1895. but with regard to man; particulars an arrangement is neces- | sary in the light Of our better knowl- edge of the geographical and topo- | graphical features of a country which was practically terra incognita even in | 1867, when it was ceded to the United States. The broad assertion that the l boundary follows the sinuosities of the coast al distance of thirty miles i. not true with respect to every detail
 Above the head of the Lynn canal, for l instance, and distant therefrom some | fifteen miles, inerc is 2 well defined watershed. The treaty 0f 1895 provides 1 that where there is q mountain range | parallel to the coast. and not more than l three leagues away. the boundary sha7
 follow the crest. At this point, there | fore, the broad assertion alluded tC
 does not hold good. There may log
 other parts of the assumed frontier line
 similarly open to correction and ap-
 propriately within the purview of ( | joint commission.
 The method adopted for the settle.
 ment of the Alaskan boundary has beer | followed by this government with re | spect to every line separating tn
 territory of the United States from tha

Elihu Root.

The appointment of Hon. Elihu Root to be a member of the Alaskan bound ary commission tends to confirm the report that MT. Root is soon to retire from the office of secretary of wa: Inasmuch as the chief problems which grew out of the war with Spain have been settled, it will not be difficult for President Roosevelt to find an accept able successor to Mr. Root, but it is likely to be q long time before man of such varied and positive talents ap- pears at the head Of the war depart ment.
 The difficulties which confronted Sec retary Root when he succeeded Sec retary Alger were largely of q legal nature, and in their way were quite ss heavy as those which his able prede- cessor had found it necessary to meet. History will accord to Secretary Algcr a high place on account of his remark able administrative ability. Not even a Stanton could more quickly have brought order out Of chaos. could more readily and ski1fully have taken the slender skeleton of our military estab- lishment and made it a great and sub stantially perfect war machine than did General Russell A. Alger; and his tory will also give to Elihu Root an nary strength of intellect which he

American Officers Learning OrieBta!
 Ways.

Captain John Pershing. the gallant officer who has won so many hGnors in the Philippines. has demonstrated that his reading of oriental history has not been for nothing. Special dls- patches from Manila Sunday stated that Captain Pershing, who for some tir1e has been operating against th" Muros' in Mindanao, had just eX hanged visits with MT. Sajiduciman, the sul- tan of Bayan, and as telegra phed tIe account shows that when Americans are polite they can he polite in the eX trere-and to very good purpose.
 Sultan Sajiduciman had never seen the American soldiers, and he visited Captain Pershing's camp. He protest ed strong friendship Tor the American and expressed much pleasure from having made their acquaintance, but when Captain Pershing intimated that he would return Mir. Sajiducimans visit the latter suggested that it would not be advisable. Captain Pershins was not to be outdone in politeness, however, and it is evident that he had not forgotten Ii Hung Chang's famous visit to the emperor of China. Our readers will remember that once upon a time the relations between the great Lii and the emperor became somewhat strained. They were excessively polite to each other, but old Ii had one eye to windward all the time. The enl- peror invited Ii to visit him privatei.. at the royal palace. Ii suspected that if he went unattended a fatal malady might seize him. Therefore. in order 10 peror he called together his personal army of eighty thousand men, and at their head marched to the sacred prcS- ence. He returned in good health and restored to the emperor's high favor.
 Captain Pershing did not douDt the sincerity of Sajiduciman's professions, of course. but in testimony of regard for the sultan he set out on q return visit at the head of seven companies of infantry and a battery of artillery. The SutldH OI NiiCil iie llSt-t spoken so modestly and deprecatinsly proved to be strong fort. the only entrance to which was by ladders Captain Pershing was received with proper honors, the sultan and numeg ous chiefs pledging their allegiance to the American government. and Per shing left the American flag floating over the "rancher;a.''
 When General Leonard Wood as sumes personal command of Mindanao, he will find that his task of complete pacification has been greatly simpli- fled by the tactful conduct of such officers as Captain Pershing. and that cur soldiers have made excellent prog ress in adapting themselves to orI- ental ways.

Of q contiguous nation. The present case will differ iH one important respect from our previous boundary contro- vcrsie3 with Great Britain in that there is no umpire provided for. and, like the Mexican frorter he, the Alaska boundary will have to be determined by mutual and complete accord. An arrival at friendly understanding IS rot only possible but extremely prob able, ana the nation should repose con- fdencc in the skill and, good judgment of the upright and patriotic gentlemen who have been appointed commission CTS. It was reported Sunday that President Roosevelt had decided to appoint Secretary Elihu Root, Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massa chusetts. and Senator George Turner of Wash ington as members of the commission, and nobody can find any fault with
 these selections.
