Stone. whose capture was effected to for
ward the cause of the Macedonian Christian
revolutjonists. Fraissouli, the leader of the
band that kidnapped Mr.. Perdicaris. de-
mands the withdrawal of the sultan's troops
from his district. the removal of the gov
ernor of Tangiar and the release of certain
bandits now held by the government Not
until these conditions are complied with win
he tell what he proposes to do with his
captives.
1t Is altogether likely that the Sultan of
Morocco will move vigorously in the prem
ises, but whether he can overtake and res
cue the captured men remains to be seen.
If Fraissouli is made aware of the fact that
the United States has Interested itself in the
matter he may modify his terms or abandon
his enterprise. But it hehooves this govern
ment to pursue the case to the end, what
ever may be the fate of Mr. Perdicaris. 1T
will of course hold the Morocco government
responsible and will not attempt to deal d.
rectly with the brigands, who, in fact, have
already fled inland and can be reached only
by troops marching some days. The affair
contains the elements of political complica-
tons. as there Is a sharp rivalry between
the European powers for dominating inf1u-
ence in Morocco and the other African,
states bordering on the Mediterranean,
while the Moorish government itself is far
from stable.

The Next House.

The fight for control of the next House
has begun. That is to say, the chairmen
of the two national congressional commit
tees have been interviewed and both are
confident. This is as 1t should be. 1t Is
chairman's duty to be confident. He must
affect the feeling If he have 1t not. And
he must be prepared at all times to garnish
his deliverances with statistics well grouped
and reasoning very persuasive A bald
statement that I'VE are going to win" hard
ly meets the emergency. The public ex-
poets something in support of 1t, and your
wise chairman usually has that something
handy. He must start confident. grow
more and more confident as the campaign
progresses. and on the eve Of election be
absolutely certain Of success. The chair
man who would doubt in public would be
lost. Lynching would be too good for him.
But confidence is by no means the sole
or chief equipment>of the two men who are
facing each other as party managers in this
years House battle. They are competent
in a high degree for their assignments. Mr..
Babcock Is one Of the best generals his par
ty has ever had He is resourceful without
being spectacular. and tactful no less than
til eless He knows all of the close districts
by heart, and ought to be able to appraise
any changes in them instantly. Mr.. COW
herd has his spurs to win, but he Is man
of much promise, and as success will mean
a great deal to him he may be expected to
work for 1t with all the energy and ability
he possesses. A democratic majority would
mean John Sharp Williams for Speaker
and Mr. Cowherd for a very prominent
place on the floor.
The House, we are told, Is likely to go
with the presidency. If the country in
dorses Mr. Roosevelt the calculation is
that 1t will elect a House to help carry for
ward his policies. He stands for some def
Unite things and Congress In accord with
the party record will be necessary to the
lengthening of that record. On the other
hand if the country rejects Mr.. Roosevelt,
it will probably take a step toward chang
ing the law-making body to the line OF
democratic policies. democratic Presi-
dent and a democratic House as the result
of this years effort would exercise great
influence on coming senatorial contests,
and we should probably witness In n few
years complete democratic control OF the
government again. This years stake there
fore is very big one, and the play for it
is certain to be highly spirited.

The Inattentive Capitol Police.

The United States Capitol and it's sur
rounding park are under the exclusive
Jurisdiction of Congress, and policemen ap-
pointed by officials named by the houses
of Congress are in charge of the building
and grounds. Those policemen are, there
fore, responsible for the success of the per-
petrators of the preposterous performance
of yesterday morning on the Capitol
plaza, and a strict inquiry into their con-
duct on that occasion is surely required by
all the circumstances. 1t Is acknowledged
by one of the police officials that he saw
the whole thing from beginning to end and
made no attempt to interfere, although on
its face 1t was improper enterprise,
whatever use may later be made of the
photographs. Mr.. CoXey was prevented
from reading an address to the American
people from the front steps OF the Capitol
Advertising agents have been kept from
misusing the building and it's approaches
for their schemes of exploitation And in the
face of these and many other recorded in
stances of strict prohibition of such prac-
tees to allow these MINISTRIES to assemble
in full view of the police and to go through
their flagrantly offensive program, what
ever their purpose may have been seems
sheer case of neglect of duty. In any case
the representation of the President In a.
public place, and especially in circum-
stances instantly suggestive of an intent
to humiliate him, is a misdemeanor de-
serving of penalty
