S. T Crapo's tenure was brief as gen.

quette railroad under the new regime.
As soon as General Manager Carpenter
had chance TO get settled in his chair
and become familiar with the surround
ings, he send for A. NJ. Smith, of
Chicago, his old secretary on the Chi
cago * Eastern Illirois, and gave him
Mr.. Grapes job as superintendent
The change took effect on Sunday Mr..
Smith has been - years in the railroad
business. He was trainmaster and
assistant superintendent and held other
positions on various roads and during
the past two years has been secretary
and auditor OF the Chicago &Eastern IL
linois. Mr.. Grape joined the Flint e.
Pere Marquette in 1883, became general
manager in 1894, and held that position
until the road recently changed hands,
when he became general superintendent
while Mr.. Carpenter was getting settled.
He is popular in the railroad business
and will fiud another good berth with
out difficulty, but in any event he
wouldn't have to eat snowballs, for like
other Grapes, he is well fixed financially.

THE ADMIRAL AND THE OYSTER.

To Rear Admiral French E. Chadwick we pre-
sent the assurances Of our most distinguished
consideration. In the absence of wars alarms
we know of nothing in the marine department
more worthy the reforming energy of an old
salt than the oyster. We have often protested
ourselves against the tasteless combination of
PUPPY tissue and fresh water served as a raw
oyster in the principal hotels and restaurants
We are happy TO see from Admiral Chadwicks
letter TO THE Sun" that he is enlisted in the
ranks or the reformers, and we hope that public
recognition OF his knowledge of things nautical
and the public disposition to follow a good
leader will result In the outlawing Of the white
hvered, pulled up, insipid degenerate which Ad-
miral Chadwick describes as coming to our
tables after the cruelty and maltreatment of
the oyster dealers; for it is maltreatment which
should have the attention of the Society for the
Prevention Of Cruelty to Animals. The Stras-
burg goose, with his diseased liver, is not more
unnaturally treated than is the innocent oyster
In the effort TO cater to a depraved taste
The oyster in his glory is rich, dark colored,
shapely inhabitant Of salt water. He is plump.
but not swelled up, and has q delicious. incom-
parable salty flavor, which nobody who really
knows him and has the taste to appreciate him
would ever dream OF spelling with crude con-
diments. But rarely will the oysterman send
such an exquisite creature to market. It is not
lat enough or white enough for the vulgar
crowd. So he puts it in fresh, or nearly fresh
water to "fatten"-that is he draws off tbe
Inc natural juices by process OF osmosis and
substitutes therefor quantity of water which
distends 1t like balloon and makes 1t lust as
tasteless. But it looks fat, Ike scrawnv
Christmas turkey judiciously fed by an air
pump. Then 1t is put before the American as
an oyster, and the American, who judges his
food and drink largely by labo.. pours over #
salt pepper, tabasco, Worcestershire, horse
radish or what not and thinks it is all right
He might as well have any sort of sea urcbin
that was soft and puffy and wet as vehicle
for the connections which he uses TO make him
self believe that an oyster tastes like some
thing.
So deprayed is the taste of the average man
IN this matter that he is likely TO reject good
oyster when by rare chance he happens to find
one. 1t is not fat enough, or is too salty. He

TIE PEOPLE AND PANAnA.

The discoura cling thing says a critic Of the
American policy in Panama, lis that the people
''are not with US. They are supporting the adj
ADMINISTRATION. Roosevelts policy in Panama is
popular" There is the best of ground for be-
leying that he spoke the truth. There are few
features of the Panama case more gratifying
than the prompt and hearty popular approval of
our governments action without regard TO
party lines. This has been displayed in many
ways. One way is through the press. THE
New-York Herald" is somewhat more inclined
toward Democracy than Republicanism, and
not long ago was an earnest advocate of Mica
ragua and an opponent Of the Panama Canal
route Yet il was one Of the foremost papers
10 give hearty and aggressive support to the
Presidents Panama policy. The Brooklyn
Eagle is representative Democratic paper Of
the first rank, but no Republican party organ
could support the Presidents policy more yigor-
ousy than it has been doing. 1.-The Hartford
Times" is one Of the leading Democratic jour-
mails Of Aew-EnglaId, but that fact has not pre-
vented it from cordially approving the course
Of the administration There is no stronger
Democratic paper in the South than 1.-THE At
lanta Constitution" but its championship of
the governments conduct in Panama is as
strong as its Democracy.
We might make many more citations to the
balne eHecl- we ulghL also point out that the
religious and semi-religious press is with uncom-
mon unanimlty arrayed on the same side of the
question Yesterdays dispatches told that the
Louisiana Legislature had adopted resolutions
calling for the ratification Of the canal treaty
with Panama. IL we were TO refer 10 the LET
ters TO the editor" which have been as numer-
Gus IN these last six weeks as they usually are
when a striking topic is before the public we
should have 10 report their sentiment TO be over
whelningly tn favor of the Presidents policy
We should say, indeed, that the administration
Is more heartily supported by the people IL this
affair than Il was In the case Of Cuban inter
Fent1ol nearly six years ago. There Is far less
enthusiasm DOW than then, Of course; less hur-
rahing and flag waving; but, then, there IS 4
great deal more serious, thoughtful argument
There is less sentiment. but more conviction.
no wonder the opponents Of the administration
nre sad. They are fond OF quoting "Vox pop
tlh, vox Del" Yet here is the popular voice I'M
mistakably approving and applauding a policy
which these censors assume to regard as in
squitous Truly that is embarra ssing
We shall not attempt 20 analyze the situation
INFINITELY IN an attempt TO determine just why
this is so. There are, however, some obvious
;eaSons for this attitude Of the public One is,
OF course. that the Presidents policy assures
The completion Of a long desired and much de-
sired work Of vast importance Another, ap-
pealing 10 principle more than TO interest. IS
that the policy of the President has been so en-

wants the natural salt TO have lost its SAVIOR,
then he will salt the washed out thing like
ham. All he asks about an oyster on the half
shell is its size If 1t is small or large to suit,
the na yor does not matter A handy caster will
supply that. Accordingly the trade caters to this
average taste or lack OF taste. and beaches
the oysters and stuffs their skins TO bursting
with fresh water. 1t is difficult to find prime
oyster in the New-York market, and, as Adj
miral Chadwick writes from Newport, we Judge
that it is equally difficult there for the oyster
connosseur to tighten the tedium of patriotic
service by the enjoyment of n perfect bivalve.
From time to time the unspOiled Oystermen OF
Cape Cod send some oysters in their I'M
fallen state, and some restaurants make point
of keeping them but often without any concep-
ton of their peculiar quality any pains to
preserve it. Once in blue moon the market
men get rushed and send in some Rockaways
or other Long Island oysters without stopping
to ruin them by the fresh water soak. But the
finding of them is a mere chance Every lover of
the oyster-the true oyster, not the misshapen
wreck of what was once an oyster-should
rally to the standard raised by Admiral Chad
wick and insist on the service Of the free and
unadulterated American oyster of the Atlantic
coast. 1t is the best in the world. The coppery
product of England, the emacated and bitter
bivalve of the Mediterranean, the microscopic
denizen of our own Pacific Coast, open their
shells in dumb amaZement at his unapproach-
able perfection. Here, where every prospect
pleases, only man is vile enough to turn q food
fit for the gods into an apology for eating horse
radish
