see Captain Hobson in uniform. serving In
the field for which he was educated. and
which promised him and the government
so much from his continued activity. And
1t is this fact. that his change OF base was
due less to calculation than to caprice,
that points to the regret that the change
was made.

Chinese Exclusion

China. having denounced our treaty with
her bearing upon the point, 1t was natural
and proper that Congress should be asked
to strengthen the law respecting the ex-
ciusion of Chinese labor from our shores.
NO sentiment Of the American people is
more pronounced than that which calls for
keeping up the bars against unrestricted
Chinese immigration. 1t controls both parties
and all classes, and apparently is proof
against change. Its legislative expression
should at all times be adequate, and In one
form or another it always will be. Mr.
"nhams the minority leader of the House,
VINO Is something OF wag when he cares
TO be, rallied the republicans yesterday on

but he and his friends. of course, supported
the measure. and 1t was adopted unanimous
ly. The Senate will ratify the action
taken.

Hearst Disapproves spineless Platform

From the New York American.
The platform offered by the state con-
vention at Albany Is about what might
have been expected from body ruled by
the Hills, Befmonts and McCarrens That
is to say. 1t Is safe" and Conservative
enough for the democratic party to stand
on IL Its sole purpose Is to avoid giving
cause for alarm to the intrenched special
interests which have possession of the fed
eral government. But as message from
the democratic party OF the empire state
to the democracy Of the Union 1t is an alb
surdity, and much worse than an absurd
fty.
It is drawn without art, for it's spirit
Is perfectly apparent. The effort was to
present declaration of PRINCIPLES which
should avoid the calamity OF offending the
trusts. and at the same time DECEIVE the
democratic voter into thinking tina. he was
receiving the pure milk of democr tie doc
trfne. The avoidance of offense to the
trusts has been successfully achieved, but
the other half of the intention has failed
lamentably. No democrat who knows what
democracy means can for an instant mis-
take the true significance of this poor skel-
eton of a platform Leaving aside the per-
functory arraignment of the republican
party, Attorney General Knox and Mr.
Baer of the coal trust could have sat down
with Mr.. Eill and Mr. Belmont and Mr..
McCarren and shared with a good will In
the connection OF the feshless platitudes
which make UP the resolutions IT is not
what the platform says. but what 1t falls
to say. that condemns 1t as an expression
OF democratic faith and purpose

go unredeemed. The appointment. as we
know, did stand. and tire trusts stood
too. They ffourisked like q green bay
tree. apparently as Indifferent to the De-
partment of Justice as though its Local
ton had been on the planet Mars.
1t is true as well that the Mckinley
administration was quite az easy going
The change from the democrats to the
republicans produced no alarm In trust
circles Monop0listic combinations con-
tinued cutting their capers, and, al
though there was no abatement OF the
talk against trusts, nobody In Wall
street or out seemed to believe, either
that there was any hope In the existing
law or that there was any probability of
amending the law so as to put life In it.
The trust magnates acted as though they
felt about the law as Mr.. Vanderbilt did
about the public.
This contempt bred boidness, and at
hast James j. Hill and his friends. going
to the greatest extreme yet reached. or
ganized the Northern Merger Company.
Then it was that Mr.. Roosevelt and
Mr.. Knox took matters in hand and ap-
pealed to the courts. Since that day we
have had more antitrust talk than in
years before, and since the decision of
the Supreme Court, sustaining the law,
we have had an improved feeling
throughout the country on the subject of
our ability under aggressive leadership
to free ourselves from trust oppression.
The record shows for itself. It is not to
the point to say that had Mr.. Olney had
such a case as Mr.. Knox had in the North
ern merger he too would have scored in
court The fact remains that it was his
inactivity while Attorney General. and his
opinion that the antitrust law was uncon-
stitutional. that led up to the forming Of
the Northern merger. He had helped to
hearten the trusts until they came to feel
that they were beyond the reach Of the
laws long arm.
