with bosom barred and defenseless,
awaiting the blade of an enemy that
would be glad to show mercy.
Stoessel has a soldiers fiery pride
that forbids surrender. By refusal TO
yield he spares himself a pang. Be
fore him he sees that which he deems
two evils. Death seems the less of the
twain. Were Stoessel an arDiter of
his individual fate alone, none, per-
haps, would blame him for his atti-
tude, but upon his decision devolves
the destiny of his troops They have
no passion for picturesque demise.
They are not lighting for principle,
but because they have been told to
fight Nor for love of the Car, for
they are free from this emotion. Yet,
they are human, and have a right to
live. They gain nothing by being kill
ed arms in hand
If StOessel adhere to his resolution,
there will be thousands more, the
dead of two peoples. stiffening In the
trenches about Port Arthur or within

less sacrifice. To submit TO condi-
tions that he has striven vainly and
brayely to overcome, would be proof
Of a more admirable quality than
could be demonstrated by counting
death.

StoeSsel's DeadiU HeToism.

heroic figure of the war In the Far
East lie may, as a soldier. be no
whit the superior Of kuropatHn. He
may possess genius of no higher or

the mere matter of fearlessness his
prototypes may be reclEoned by thou
sands. for they eyinced their courage
by the supreme expression of facing
certain death and not flinching.
The spectacle OF General StoesseI,
doomed, bat uudauuted, appeals by
It's pathOs, and the pathos is accen-
uated by the fuulity Of the sacrifice.
The japanese are censured for a false
courage when rather than survive de-

A Welcome Agreement

The whole city viii be glad that
the teachers OF the public schools
have adjusted their disagreement as
TO the scale of increases in salary
which is TO so to Congress this month.
Their cause is REINFORCED by the
judgment and sympathy of the whole
community, and il would be most IN
fortunate il, under such eircum-
stances, il should fail of success be
cause the prospective benefciaries did
not present a united front
Yet. it ought to occasion no sur
prise that these teachers disagreed.
Had the schedule been prepared with
the utmost care and skill: had it
been revised and re-revised by all the
authorities; il must still have seemed
unfair TO some out of a corps OF / 400
Workmen and workwomen. This
would have been true of any body OF
the same numbers. 1t is especially
true of teachers. educated and self
reliant. But this scale was not pre-
pared with caution. II was. instead,
the bes- work which the officers of
the Teachers Association could do in
about two days As a consequence
although iJ was, probably. all that
could have been expected under the
circumstance presents conspicu-
GUS inequalities. That in the face
OF these inequalities the teachers
could unite in its favor is highly
significant of their self-controI and
their devotion to the general cause
Of the schools.
What is now proposed-the refer
ence of the scale to the Board of Edu-
cation-accords with views expressed
IN these columns several days ago
It would be wise TO intrust to the
board the whole appropriation foi
the pay Of teachers. and permit the
board to app0rtion it. In the end
Congress relies on the discretion OF
the board in accepting its outline Of
the needs Of the service. and thai
reliance is always a year old becaus,
OF the time required for the trans
mission of the boards report and tn,
action by Congress which follows. j
would be much better to span tha
year and apply the appropriation Il
the present needs of the schools b,
changing the form of the Congress
sional trust I'm the board.
This is, however. a course Congress
IS unlikely TO adopt. II will b.
thought a sufficient objection to i
that Congress does not adopt a cor
responding course in connection will
any Of the executive departments. /
that objection holds il is then devout
ly TO be wished that the teacher
may obtain at least this much-tha
Congress intrust the adjustment O
the increases TO the men and womel

and informed of their iabors.
