The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1904-08-11

The fve-year prohibition against the practice of
dropping dynamite or other explosive substances
from balloons has expired. Japan and Russia are
now at liberty to resort to the cruel and inhuman
practice Notwithstanding the fact that war is sufi-
eiently slaughtering in all its aspects and notwith-
standing the use Of dum-dum bullets is still for
bidden. Why the peace conference at The Hague
should limit the prohibition against dynamting from
balloons for the short space of five years is mex
plicable if the practice was shocking to humanity
The dum-dum bullet was held to be against civilized
usages in warfare and its prohibition was made per-
petual But it was not and would not be more in.
hnman than dynamiting an advancing army from
balloons nor than dynamiting an investing force
around a fortress through the use of dynamite in
mines War is sufficiently destructive in the use of
the Krag-Jorgensen and Krupp guns and the bombs

The use Of dynamite from balloons if inhuman and
abhOrrent to modern usages of warfare at the begin
ming Of the five years has lost nothing during that
period. The prohibition ought to have been made

JUDGE PARKER's ACCEPTANCE.

Judge Parkers acceptance speech will prove Z
disappointment. The general public has been giver
to understand that Judge Parker is a man Of rare
mental attainments, but his speech is far from the
gem which most of us expected 1t lacks that 1ne
polish which characterzes the literary efforts OF
President Cleveland and in almost every respect Is
q most ordinary document.
Judge Parkers speech is remarkable for Just one
original expression original 50 far as acceptance
speeches are concerned He closes his speech with
the declaration that successful or unsuccessful he
win not seek nor accept the denomination, on the
ground that the possibility of reelection may inu-
ence the acts of the president This proposition, as
Judge Parker points out, open to strong argument
both ways and the democrats viii probably not make
L campaign issue. 1t is declaration which might
have been expected from man who has not held
the office to which he aspires.
So far as other propositions Of the speech are
concerned, they are just what was expected. Judge
Parker says the tariff breeds the trusts Most men
agree on this point. However, the democratic nom-
NEE would not go trust-busting, but would set out
On tarfrevsing expedition, with the idea in view
Of curbing the encroachments of the trusts. Just
how this roundabout method viii suit the Hearst fol-
lowing remains to be SEEN
Our Philippine attitude viii be discussed for many
years to come. Many Of us win decry the plan by
which the Filpinos are made subjects not citizens,
and more of u.s. no doubt will continue to insist that
we came by the islands accidentally, from which it
does not follow that we should accept 100000 saw
ages as fellowcitizens. Judge Parker has nothing
new to say on this subject. He is opposed to ex-
tensive armament, but it can scarcely be said that
he commits himself to hostility to greater navy.
His reference probably is intended for the army.
The candidate attributes the strikes in Colorado to
the failure of officials to do their duty, but says
nothing especially new on this point
Judge Parker concludes with the most important
statement of all-that he will write letter of ac-
ceptance in which he will more fully deal with the
issues His letter. judging from his speech, should
be submitted to Mr.. Cleveland for revision.

FIVE DOLLARS PER DEATH.

The request Of the owners and managers Of the
General Slocum, made to the United States court
sitting in admiralty in the city of New York. to as
sess the liability of the Knickerbocker Excursion
Company at no more than $5 per death is not so
very surprising says the Commercial Tribune. A

other than rate the death of woman or a child at

The admiralty laws Of the United States are
woefuly deficient, and the owners of the Slocum :
the Knickerbocker Excursion Company-are OF the
opinion that in fixing the value Of life at s. they
even more generous than the United States, and
they are. The law fixes the liability Of a steamer
at the amount the passenger would be required to
pay arriving at his port of destination, and as the
amount each child would have been required to ,ay

A TIP FROM THE POLITICIANS.

Our politicians teach us SO many things unworthy
Of emulation that it is genuine pleasure to recog-
nize their occasional merits; and it happens that
the best example they set is the one most needed in
the business and domestic life Of the day. says the
Saturday Evening Post
Before each convention it is the habit of the pol
lcans Of every party that has any life in it to wran-
gle extravagantly Factions proclaim their conten-
tions with a ygor Of word and action that would
seem to mean their Withdrawal from party allegiance
II their special claims and candidates were not ac-
cepted without compromise or equivocation When
the conventions assemble there is the sharp clash of
interests and ambitions each vowing never to sur
render one jot or title Of its plans and purposes
and every one using the straghtest hardest language
at hand So it goes until the votes are taken-and
then the factions come together everything is rat
tled and all go home to work in harmony for the
success Of the ticket and the platform.
The great thing is that the politicians bring their
differences to settling point when they assemble
Their divided energies for a mass movement After
the decision they know from experience that if they
waste their strength on side issues or minor candi-
dates they ride to defeat SO they unite, sink past
quarrels, and work for the common end In that re-
spect great campaign in America is educational
and electrifying.
Most large business failures, most church disasters,
most social fractures, most professional ruptures,
are caused by the fact that their competing and con-
tending parts do not reach settling point, line
Of agreement along which all can work in enough
concert to make common success This, Of course,
brings up the question Of compromise There are
