for 1t is just about as likely to be on
one side as another. In late issue
there Is a highly eulogistic editorial
on Mr.. Bryan and another equally ia
vorable to Roosevelt. The singular
feature OF this last is that 1t takes the
position that the trusts, and money and
''syndicated capital" whatever that Is.
are all dead against Teddy. winding up
with this:
And The Bee today conscientiously
believes that IL the candidates are to
be Theodore Roosevelt, fought by the
Trusts, and Judge Parker, their silent
verso the records of 1896 and 1900 and
down the Trust candidate.
Were 1t not that The Bee is often DO
iiticalfy sensible we should call this a
decidedly assinine deliverance. To
speak of Roosevelt being fought by the
trusts Is almost amusing. and to speak
of Judge Parker as the silent tool of
the trusts Is actually funny We do
not know where The Bee gets its opin-
ion, or what has changed 1t, for it is
generally against the Republicans, and
was not at all in love with Hearst and
his methods. Perhaps it never expects
to find man quite as exalted as Will
liam Jennings Bryan and is soured on
all other Democrats because they re-
fuse to hold him in the high esteem 1T
does. But 1t ought to quit joking
about serious matters like Presidential
candidates.

The Manchester IN. HI Union, COM
menting on the announcement that Mr..
CorteIyou is to hold his position at the
head of the Department of Commerce
and Labor. and at the same time occu-
py the place of manager of the Repub-
lican Presidential campaign, finds 1t
difficult to believe that such a propo-
sition could be seriously considered, so
far Is it from all established sense of
propriety," and further remarks that
ut is outrageous enough to put mem
bers of his cabinet perniciously upon
the stump, but to take one of the num-
Der to do the active work of directing
tne details of the campaign, 1t would
have been impossible to conceive, apart
cannot be said 1t has not been serious
1y contemplated. in view of statements
made, it should be said that the pur-
pose should not be carried out"
The only surprise we experience in
the premises is to find The Union ex-
pressing surprise at any violation of
the proprteties on the part of Mr..
Roosevelt. He has given so many and
such positive evidences of his disre-
gard for even common decency in his
official career that we see no reason for
astonishment at anything he does. Mr..
Cortelyou is head of one of the most
important departments of the govern
ment. 1t is department which should
be as non-partisan as the Supreme
Court, and one to which he should give
all his attention. Yet in spite of all
this he is slated to take charge of an
intensely partisan campaign, and will
necessarily neglect his Official duties
while he Is working for Roosevelt.
1t does seem to us that decent Re
publicans, would sicken of Roosevelt's
ntter disregard of all propriety In his
pfficial conduct. His intense PARTISAN
ship and his bitter pre1udices crop out
on all occasions and no one can tell
when he will do or say something to
shock the sensibilities of those who
still have an exalted opinion of the OBJ
LEGATIONS of the position he holds. The
Union would have much better cause
of surprise il Roosevelt should conduct
himself as becomes the head of a great
government.

Mr. Hearst has had no experience in
public affairs, his service in Congress
having been wholly perfunctory, and
his knowledge of political history. po-
htical economy, and political every
thing seems to be as limited as his
opinions surely are crude. :
But there Is another and very dark
side. Mr.. Hearst has no particular de-
sire to becorsc the Democratic candi-
date; Republican nomination would
suit him quite as well. He wants to be
the candidate of a class, and since
classes have not hitherto been reoog
nized as existing in this country, he
has bent his energies and given his
own talent and hired clever men Of
specious minds and spent freely of his
money in an endeavOr to create one.

We do not agree with those who
think that arbitration will succeed in
putting an end to war--at least not In
the near future. But it's triumphs
have been so signal and so frequent
that we must believe that II can pre-
vent many wars. Arbitration. coupled
with the deadly efficiency of modern
weapons, the fearful cost OF war and
the burdens which great armies and

beginning to weary of the burden, will
certainly circumscribe war and will keep
