From the New York Tribune
The historic difference 'twixt tweedledum
and tweedledee must cease to be a symbol
of hair-srfftting. The republican state con-
vention has given all those who delight TO
bark and bite over nothings q tonic suited
to their dispositions in the que stion whether
the platform makers of the empire state
put a slight upon or showed a disloyal dis
pc sttion to President Roosevelt in direct
ing the delegates-at-large to use all honor
able means to secure his nomination, in
stead of 'instructing them to do So For
ourselves we should have thought that
II this was an insult it was "a
very light one but some OF our con-
temporaries who are known to be specially
anxious for the Presidents comfort and
ter of phraseology. Perhaps overwork for
the President may have made them bit
hysterical, but 1t is certainly touching to
see the jealous devotion which leads them
suspiciously to scrutiniZe every word of the
platform for a HAT of treachery to the
President And the pathos. even the trag-
edy, of it is that they have so well dis
sembled their love that the average news
paper reader has been led to think that
the thing that they most wanted was to
plunge political knife into Mr.. Roosevelt
and turn 1t around. Thus one of Them
while bursting with indignation about the
failure to instruct" instead of direct
delegates, INDUCES editorially in reflection
on an alleged likeness between the enthu-
siam manifested by the convention for the
President and that of small boy for his
spring medicine. But it is impossible to
judge of friendship by words, and it is
now seen that the popularity supposed
'sknfers" of the President are only some
what whimsical friends. who, though they
indulge In much grumbling themselves, are
ready to lick all the rest of the world for
failure of proper devotion in word and
deed.

That Word Directed"

The New York delega tes-at-large to the
Chicago convention are directed to cast
their votes for Theodore Roosevelt II. is
insisted in anti-Roosevelt quarters that
they should have been instructed SO to
vote. and that the employment of the other
word shows that the action taken is load
ed. Is it? Well. we'll, We have little
official ceremony in this town which shows
how well that word directed works.
When the messenger from the White House
visits the Capitol on business, and is intro
duced to the presiding officer of that house
of Congress with which he has come to
communicate, he says: Il am directed by
the President of the United States to de-
liver sundry messages in writing And
then he delivers them. He is just as par
ticular about it as though he had been lin
structed' to do it, Directed" will do the

The announcement of newly discovered

lieving the human race of the scourge OF

minating the elementals of these diseases It
will have by that stroke alone more than
justified It's creation. Thus far the discoy-
cry seems to be of a strictly scientific char

life therein. including the germs of typhoid
and of cholera and the substances upon
which the young OF the mosquito, which in
adult form serves as the medium of COM

periments on a large scale is whether the

The Missouri Disaster.

The disaster OF. board the battle ship
Missouri has diverted the attention of the
American people in a shocking manner from
the war events in the far east to conditions
IN our own navy. In the nature of the case
there can never be Il Perfectly clear under
standing of what caused the explosion in
the tuiret. owing to the death of all those
ne III the gun and those in the powder-har-
ding room below But the theory is VEN
tured by competent authorities. on the
known facts and the peculiarities of this
class of accidents, that the gun was per-
liaps being fred more rapidly than the
laws of safety permitted. OF late an in
Tense rivalry has sprung up between the
gun crews of the navy to score the highest
records in both accuracy and rapidity OF
ire, and this fact gives color to the suppo-
sition that the warnings lately issued By
the higher officials of the navy may not
have beer fully observed in the target prae-
tice.
The premature explosion of the powder
charge on tha Missouri may have been
due to the ignition of the cloth bag from
a bit of smoldering waste from the previous
charge. in which case 1t must be evident
that the gun was not properly swabbed. Or
ii may have been occasoned by back
blast" due to the presence in the gun of
heated gases or even of flames from the
previous discharge, prevented from escap-
ing at the muzzle by the high wind blowing
directly against the face of the turret. To
u. ey..-.., Just such an accident fans have
been provided in the Missouris turrets, but
Ii is conjectured that possibly the drauSht
may have been too strong even for them.
In such event. it is plain that the gun must
have been fired more rapidly than was safe.
OF course the full particulars, as far as
aseertainable. will be developed by the court
of inquiry which must follow. Meanwhile,
the country's grief over the tragedy is tenn
pered by the knowledge that in the moment
of greatest peril, under the severest strain
of excitement, the surviving officers and
crew of the Missouri acted with judgment
and courage. and doubtless prevented an
even greater calamity. The flooding of the
maya zines saved the vessel from the posi-
bility of total destruction through further
explosions and the work of rescue was i'm
mediately organized and forwarded with a
bravery which reflects infinite credit upon
the ships company.
The disaster will probably have the eff
feet of causing greater caution In the ri
valry of the naval gun crews. Their record
in speed and accuracy of fire is already
SufnclentlS nlSH 10 SdtiSlA every iea'oaoAN
requirement. 1t may be discovered that the
accident was due to absolutely unpreventa-
BILE causes, incident to the handling OF
enormous powder charges in circumstances
of great danger at best. This is to be
hoped and yet feared; hoped for the reas-
surance such a fact would give OF the
maintenance of high standards of conserva-
tive efficiency. and feared for the threat
conveyed that there is no possibility OF
safeguarding the modern warsfhp, even
through the utmost caution, against great
calamties in time of peace.

Smoke.
From the Boston Transcript.

Smoke means waste. The science of
smoke prevention and THE science OF perfect
combustion are equivalent terms Once
make factory owner realize this. and he
is won over to the cause, for il he has INTEL
hgence enough to manage a business he
must know that perfect combustion of fuel
means no waste Consider the analogy of
coal oil lamp. Turn up the wick and the
lamp smokes. You arc using too much oil
and getting less light. The same is pre-
e.sely true of furnace smoking Chin
ney-stack means too much fuel-and less
heat. Once get the factory owner to under
stand filis-to know that those beIching
clouds of black smoke mean wasted money
gone up the chimney ane. less power for his
maehinery-and you have converted him.
