that he will not be loyal TO the powers that be,

government excludes him from the Philippines.
If the outrage recently inflicted on an English

justified a mass meeting, does not the fate Of
this agitator deprived OF a chance TO agitate In
his own home justify a revolution? What If

A iii was introduced IN the Assembly yester-
6sv nv Mr. Newcornb which is evidently de-
signed TO improve the quality OF street surface

In accordance with Civil Service rules. Hnd d.
reefs that they shall be paid By the city out OF
funds deposited by the person or corporation or
owner Of adjacent premises responsible for the
disturbance OF the pavement. Whether any
thing more than this, In addition 20 the present
requirements, is needed 10 accomplish the OBJ
feet aimed at we shall not attempt to say. but
t,e purpose os Mr. Newcomb's bill is clearly
commendable While this matter Of pavement
reDairs is commonly put in the class Of minor
interests. It is really more important than many
things which enlist the activities OF rcformers
and provoke animated discussion.
II is exasperatirC 10 observe the carelessness
with which such work is commonly done and
10 experience the inevitable results. There is
never the slightest hesitation about tearing up
2 pavement which has very likely just been laid

beneath Il but when The time for replacing 1t
comes the corporation or individual concerned
IS hnbituaIly dilatory and usually satisfied with
q slovcaIv restoration. Occasionally 4 fragrant
case Of neglect which has long veNed traffic
and caused much loss by tanning horses ana
breaking the springs OF vehicles produces a
mild public commotion. But It IS always curl
Gus 10 note how the blame is shifted about
from one person TO another before anything is
actually done. How much az fault for delays
the inspectors are may be questionable. but Il
is scarcely possible 10 doubt that they pass n
great deal OF bad work either because they are
incompetent or because It IS made an object 10
them 10 overlook the defects.
or course the excuse is offered that patching
IS difficult which is no excuse at all. Preslrn-
ably Il does require special care TO repair either
an asphalt or a stone pavement IN a proper
manner. but II would be absurd 10 pretend that
il cannot be done. The trouble is that in many
eases the corporation or the builder whose busi-
ness II IS 10 replace what has been destroyed
does rot care how wretched the work IS. pro-
vided only that Il passes muster. Everybody
who has watched such N operation must be
convinced that the workmcn are under orders

LAW AND TENPINS.

Complaint that the machinery OF the law IS
unequal TO the press Of business crowding upon
it everywhere is not new one, and perhaps it
is as old as law itself, overworked from the be-
ginning in the effort to put a stop order on the
wicked tendencies OF mankind. Anything which
tends TO abate this pressure is 10 be hailed with
gratitude and joyance. and especially any sign
on the part Of litSants that they are willing 10
settle their differences amicaby and out OF
court.

The latest Indictment Of the governments
policy IN the Philippines is that IL is contrary
10 American ideals. our uE-American deci-
sion II rule a distant people against Its Will"
we are tod, signifies a suspension Of American
ideals"
We might well take exception 10 the state
rnent of the case. There IS no convincing proof
az hand that We are railing the Flllpinos against
their VIII. Dcubtless some Of them object TO
our rule. So do some people IN the Caited
States object TO the rule OF our government or
Of any government. We do know that many
Of the Filip.nos, Including some Of the most in
rciligent, progressive and substantial, welcomed
American sovereignty and desire it's mainten-
anoe. Just how i2any favor AID how many OPP
pose American rule does not appear. Moreover,
that is not in any case a complete description
of our rule There should be added TO il the
authoritative and unimpea enable declaration OF
Governor Taft, in Whist was practically his fare
well address that the supreme aim OF our rule
IS TO preserve The Philippines for the Fil-
pinos." Every measure continued Mr. Taft
whether IN the form Of law or an executive
"order. should ne weighed in the light % this
question: Docs II make for tie welfare Of the
"Filipino people o. does il MOI: II il does not
then II ought not 90 be enacted or executed"
That puts different light upon the decision
% rule people against lts viii"
But for the sake Of argument suppose we
pass By those and other points Of exception 10
the question Of American Ideals" We do not
propose TO speak sl.ghungly OF ideals. They
IRE to be encouraged and maintained rather
Than ignored or abandoned. But may not the
question pertinently he raised. What are the
American ideals IN ts case; u VIII scarcely
DO TO insist upon the individual ideals OF the
present day, for they arc numerous and various.
The true American Ideals" must be those Of
earlier origin ana wider acceptance. Nor are
they 10 be forld in any one or more isolated
utterances, however eminent We must have
regard for the context and for the inter7areta-
zion given in actual practice. Was Jeiferson's
''glittering generallty" about consent q the
governed" an American idear'? jefferson him
self showed us what he thought of IL wien he
purchased Louisiana without the knowledge,
even OF its people. and then governed them
not only without their consent but against
their strenuous protests. Ideal or no ideal that
great ideaiist set us the practical example of
thus ruling distant people against SIS viii
The same example was repeated in Florida

Alaska. Where are We 10 draw The line he
tween American ideals and American urac-
tees when the practices are those OF the found

dimes 20 overlook That IS that Americap
ideals comprise law as well rs liberty. The
