Watson and tn. R.publ,can..

New York Evening Post.
 The Hon. Thomas E. Watson, Popu list candidate for President, must feel indeed gratitied this morning by the prominence which the Republican press has given to his speech of &C., ceptance. If he keeps a scrap-book he may find entertainment in compar- ing the hearty and friendly Republi- can accounts of the notification meet ing last night with the comments of the same organs when he spoke here eight years ago. The generally toler ant and sympathetic nature of the Grand Old Party was never more in- genuously shown than in this almost childlike display of glee because the Populists are doing well. But let us ..nalyze the cause for jubilation. The Republican has q right to be pleased when former Democrat decides to vote for Roosevelt. for 1t makes a diff ference of two in the plurality. which ever way the election goes. He has slightly less reason to be pleased when Democrat decides to vote for a minor party, for that makes a difference of one in the plurality.

oFrICEHoLDERs AND BOSSES.
Real Authority Seldom Vested in the
 Holder of Oncinl Tide.

St. Paul News,
 As the story goes. Myron T. Herrick, capitalist and Governor of Ohio, was in a fine rage when Lincoln Steffens, in his penetrating way, asked him: "Who is the real Governor of Ohio?"
 If you will study the history of po- litical bosses in relation to municipal ities. States. and the nation, you can well ask, "Who?" ~
 There has grown up in America a profession called ''bossism." Its grad uates are strong men, born to lead. courageous. and generally unscrupu- lous. Their trade is not respectable. They make their living, not by holding office. but by holding men. They are content that others should possess fame and position, make the speeches and eat the dinners, and reap whatever honor attaches tS a political position. All they care for is money.
 The profession of "bossing' has grown to such extent that the average Independent candidate has about as much chance as snowball in the in- fernal regions, for the bosses have d mortgage on the offices.
 The average ambitious man may feel that he hears a call from vLx popuii, but that call will carry little weight at the bailot-box until he makes his peace with the organization" The profess sion must be recognized-in Ohio. in New York. ir every State in the Union.
 The organization allowed Myron T. Herrick to become Governor of Ohio. No one suspects that he paid money for the honor or that he bribed voters. His financial honesty is undoubted
 What he did was to accept condis tions as he found them. and exercise extreme care in the making of appoint ments and the exercise of his offic al functions to always consider the well fare of his party.
 No more was necessary. 1t was what is known as good politics. It Jeff the bosses in position to pay their debts and strengthen thnir hold on the os- fees. The bosses are capable of look ing after their own avenues and emo- luments.
 Of course, this leaves The Governor in position where he must consider par ty first and the people next. That is the boss system. It Is what keeps the boss alive. The Governor owes his of acial life to the organization" and ne

DYNAMITE IS USED
HOUSE or NON-UNI0N MINER
 BLOWN UP.
First Violence Since the Strike in the Birmlngham DistrIct-The DC. cupants Escape With Their
 Lives.

Birmingham. August 25.-tspeciai, The intense quiet which has charac- terized the strike of the United Mine Workers of America, District 20. was broken at an early hour this morning. when two dynamite outrages were committed.
 At Dolomite. a house occupied oy John Murray. a negro miner who went to work on a non-union basis, was blown up. Murry and his family hap pened to be in the other end of the house at the time and thus escaped with their lives. Three men were seen to run away from the place after the explosion and shots were fired at them but without avail. A reward of $500 has been offered by the sheriff for the arrest of the parties and 1t is expect ed that the governor will add to this amount.
 At Graves mines a water pipe lead ing to the boilers of the Lacey-Buek company was dynamited, making the boilers temporarily of no service. An increased of deputies have been sworn in by the sheriff and tho greastest precaution Is being taken. Every ef- fort will be made by the authorities not only to bring to justice those gull ty of the transgressions of last night. but to prevent similar occurrences.

NO EXTRA SESSION.

THE Presidents announcement that
4 he viii not call an extra session
OF Congress during the next spring to
consider the revision Of the tariff is
regarded by the Republican press as
the wisest course. There is much
legislation that is desirable and neces-
sary during the present session, and
II is proper to avoid the friction that
the announcement Of an extra session
would cause.
But, to quote the New York sun,
'Mr. Roosevelt, however, does not say
that he has abandoned the idea OF
consideration OF the tariff by Congress.
on the contrary. there is much which
indicates a recent strengthening OF his
conviction that good business and
sound politics alike demand an ADJUST
ment Of specific, though as yet un-
specified, items in the tariff list. He
does not say that he will not call such
a session in the autumn OF 1905. In
fact, there are various signs that he
has very distinct intention Of doing
just that, unless in the meantime there
shall come developments which clearly
declare that such step would be
either unwlse or unsafe.
Discussion, however, viii continue,
and while there is opposition on the
part Of many party leaders to any re-
vision, yet even from those centers
where there is most manufacture and
where the protection sentiment is the
strongest there is a distinct feeling
that conditions have changed so ma
terlally since the Dingley law went
into effect that a new adjustment is
desirable. This sentiment win grow,
and while it is not imperative in its
demand, yet there will come a time
when the President will decide that the
necessity outweighs the slight de-
rangement which adjustment might
Temporarily cause.

EDUCATIONAL NEEDS.

n ERTAIN members Of the Board Of
~ Education are opposed to the FIVE
per cent. Increase which that body has
received each year. The same mem
bers favor a continuance Of the pro-
vision calling for a board Of twenty
four members. Lots Of members but
little money seems to be their motto.
But we repeat what we have said
before, that the demands Of education
in this city require small body Of
selected men to control it's affairs.
Large bodies are unwieldly, and there
has been too much petty politics in
the board during the past.
As far as any reduction in the
revenues is concerned. there should be
no question. There is too little money
now to pay reasonable salaries and to
keep the work up to the proper stand
ard Of efficiency OF course there is
objection to paying more money with
our treasury in its present condition,
but the American idea is that educa-
tion comes next to food and shelter as
a necessity.

Rest For Railroaders.

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
In view Of the discussion evoked by the
recent decision of a Norristown judge that
overwork was not a defence for railroad
ers responsible for fatal wreck, the ac-
tion of the Northwestern Road in issuing
a special order designed TO give each en-
ploye a full period Of rest is Of particular
interest. This company has had rule
that It shall not count against an employe
il he demands rest when he needs it, but
the new regulations go much further A
minimum time for rest is prescribed as
follows: Ten hours or less on duty, eight
hours rest; twelve hours on duty, ten
hours rest: fourteen hours on duty, or
more twelve hours rest. No engine or
train man is 10 be permitted TO go out on
o run without the full allotted time off
duty. An elaborate check system is also
provided at the terminals by means Of a
rest book. in which the record OF every
train crew and engine crew is to be kept.
If this excellent rule is enforced il
should offer an educative demonstration
to railroad managers generally. That the
element Of human fallibility is responsible
for large proportion Of the railroad acci-
dents is known to every newspaper reader.
That this element is increased IL not in
duced IN most cases, by the collapse Of
overworked men is also patent. The eX-
pertinent OF the Northwestern Road will
be watched with interest, and If it results
in noticeable reduction Of accidents no
fufther argument should be needed to
cause its general adoption.

EDITORIAL OPINION
Psnnypaoker and Fraud.
he Indianapolis News.

From the Indianapolis News.
The Hon. Samuel Whitaker Penny
packer. Governor Of Pennsylvania, re-
minds us Of the Hon. Joseph w. Folk,
Governor-elect of Missouri-he is so
different. A few days ago a delegation
Of distinguished clergymen, headed by
Bishop Mackay-Smith, Of the Protest
ant Episcopal Church, and Bishop Foss,
of the Methodist Episcopal Church. call
ed on the Governor of Pennsylvania to
confer with him concerning election
frauds In Philadelphia. and 10 ask him
10 recommend legislation 10 stop them.
And practically all that Governor Pen
nypacker said was that the frauds had
been greatly exaggerated. He asked
FOR evidence. and referred his visit
ors 10 the courts. Yet the clergymeh
cited cases which prOved--or should
have proved-to every reasonable man
that fraud reigns In Philadelphia. The
Governor, however, demanded technical
legal evidence, and did not seem TO un-
