The Leader of the French Socialists

The Leader of the French Socialists.
M. Jaures is to-day the most pro-
minent leader of the French Socialist
party, as we'll as one OF the most at
tractive figures in French parliament
tary life. By general consent he is
not far from being foremost among the
great political orators of France, and
for years speech by Jaures has al
ways been sure to draw large crowds
to the Palais Bourbon, or to the po-
pular meetings where he often makes
himself heard for the one cause that
is dear to him.
Although belonging to a party in
the Chamber that counts fewer than
fifty members. he was this every year
elected to the Yice-presidency of the
Chamber, an honor that Is usually be-
slowed only on the most representa-
tive members of the Republican major
ity. In two sensational speeches he
recently challenged the attraction of
the world by bringing up two of the
most acute and delicate questions in
French politics,-the question of AL
SAGE. Lorraine and the Dreyfus affair.
He is at the present time the French.
man outside of the administration
whose personality is the most striking
and whose influence is the most power
full, His very career challenges at
tention and commands respect, for it
shows the struggles of man against
the interests Of his class to promote a
social order more in the accord with
his notions of justice, and it shows the
evolution OF a mind which has worked
its way towards a higher ideal of life.

sent Leader of French Socialism, y by

MORE CHARTER TALK.

There is more talk about new char
ter. There isn't the slightest doubt
that the city needs It. But it doesn't
want any ripper legislation. The
movement for a charter win always be
a pretext for certain politicians to get
busy. We don't want men legislated
out of Office by the wholesale. and we
don't want men legislated in. When a
new charter Is given US it should pro-
vide for the filling Of offices by election
or appointment, and it would be an
mpertnence for any legislature to per-
form that duty for us.
Our city government is too cum
bersome, there are too many parts and
it is not only intricate but expensive.
From time TO time commissions were
established in order to limit the power
OF Council. When that body got ar
btrary or there was a suspicion OF
crookedness. a commission was estab-
lished. But whatever these commits
sions have done in the past, we think
that Council as now constituted could
handle the work done by these bodies
as well as 1t is at present handled.
The best form of municipal govern
ment yet devised is that which central
ICES the power and responsibility. And
consequently, most cities are governed
by a mayor and his cabinet and Coun-
oll II bad government results from
such system the people have the
remedy I'm their own hands. The citi-
zens bin which was submitted TO the
last Legislature should have passed
with a few notifications, and it would
have passed had there not been a COM
bination between certain Democrats
and Union Republicans for the purpos,
OF passing n ripper bill and dividing
the spoils II was intended to create.

Congressman Adamson Of Georgia. a

pressed to the President his pleasure at
the way the administration has hand
led the Panama affair. Said he:
"Mr. President. / am glad you did

Mr. Adamson realizes that q bow

rabbit through and Germany or some

The President wasn't trespassing when
the rabbit was started; it was flushed
on the preserves OF another, but when
it jumped the fence and landed IN our
