The New French Cabinet.

The new French cabinet takes hold at
time of great difficulty. France more
than any other nation except Japan is in
terested in the Russian situation. A rev.
olution in Russia which should destroy or
even seriously cripple the present govern
ment there would at the same time play
hobs with the Franco-Russian alliance;
and the destruction of that would involve
a recast of many French calculations. But
with M Delcasse at the head of the for
eign Office the best possible for France, we
may be sure, will be made of anything that
may arise. He has thorough grasp of
matters. and the confidence of the world,
and his advice will be of great value For
the moment. therefore, the local troubles
in France are overshadowed by the posi-
bilities of thi; larger turmoil with which
Frances ally is struggling.

The Commissioners and the Law.

Commissioner Biddle's Endorsement on the
smoke-law amendment papers will not i'm
press the community, and it is to be hoped
and believed it will not impress Congress,
as an addition to the argument against
granting the petition of the business inter
ests of the city for the enactment of a
practicable. inclusive, equitable smoke law.
Indeed upon analysis this sta tement is viz
tually an Endorsement of the amendments
demanded by the business men.
The pending proposition of the furnace
owners of Washington includes three dis
tinct changes in the law, one including the
government departments among those es-
Establishments amenabie 10 the law, one in
Guiding the railroad locomotives and one
making the law definite in its scope by
naming a specified period of unpunishable
smoke emission and at the same time eff
fective in keeping the nuisance at a mini
mum by naming limit to the total extent
of such permissible emissions during the
day.
The Engineer Commissioner approves the
first two of these amendments. He certi-
ffes TO the facts and approves the reasoning
which underlie the demand for the third,
but stops short of indorsing the amendment
itself. Instead of having the period of &C
casional smoke emission, which he ac-
knOwledges to be necessary in some cases
stated by Congress in the law so that the
community can safely rely upon il as ac-
quitting trifiing smoke emitters from the
charge of law breaking. he prefers to have
the statute in such shape that il is violated
Oy seconds dense emission and to leave
all notifications of the law to the discre-
ton of the health officer who is given no
such discretion by Congress He argues
that because in the making and enforcing of
building and police regulations which Con
greSs has authorized the Commissioners tn
make and enforce they themselves exercise
discretion in their enforcement therefore
the Commissioners, to whom Congress has
given no such authority whatever in the
matter of the smoke law, may and should
go ahead in their discretion in dealing with
smoke emitters. Because Congress spe-
citicauy grants a certain range of authority

hoius Ihat the Commissioners should AFRO
gate that authority to themselves in others

withheld the right from them. He even

ment
An amendment to limit the time of al.

emission and not to exceed a certain num.
Der of minutes in an hour or in a day
might be free from this objection, in view
of the practice Of the health department in
prosecuting under the present law, but it is
not thought this would be any more salts
factory to those offenders who claim that
1t is impossible to comply with the existing
law"
In other words, a one-minute period OF
permissible emission is equitable. The
Commissioners have themselves already no

declared in their arbitrary Interpretation of
the law, which the courts have held to be
: non-governing. But inasmuch as the fur
mace owners of the city, after many
months of earnest effort to comply first with
the utterly impossible statute and then with
the Commissioners arbitrary modification
of it. suggest longer period of unpunish-
able smoke emission, the Engineer Com
missioner declares that il is useless to offer
them even legal prescription of the adj
minstrative remedy of a one-minute mar
gin. There is no recognition of either the
necessity or the desirability of having the
letter of the law conform to the practices
of the Commissioners and health office.
Congress should either legisate or abdi-
cate; it should either amend the smoke law
itself or authorize the Commissioners to
modify it, Either the law should be made
by amendment to carry its own definite
prohibition and permission or the Commits
si0ners should be specifically authorized by
Congress to fix and declare the period of
unpunishable emission, and the health Of
ficer should be specifically empowered to
pardon in his discretion in the case of such
unavoidable emissions as those mentioned
by Commissioner Biddle.
1t comes with poor grace from the Com
missioners to admit that the law should be
modified in practical application, and then
TO say that they are opposed to having
this done by lawful processes and to insist
upon notifications only in their discretion
and that of the health officer without even
asking Congress to grant them the power
to exercise lawfully this discretion. Smoke
emitters whose emissions are not sufficient
to constitute a nuisance wish to be pro-
tected by Congress and the law from pros
ecution and do not wish to be branded as
lawbreakerS by the statute and be COM
PEELED to rely for immunity upon the tender
mercies or the whims or the discriminating
favoritism of the man who happens at the
time to be health officer.

Hereditary Habit,

Twas Adam who long years ago,
When sorrow and misfortune came
Assumed an injured tone of woe
And told Eve that she was to blame.
When house expenses now increase
And when the steak is overdone;
When life's small woes decline to cease
And ventures lose that should have won
When plans go wrong, as plans oft do,
He VOWS his wifes advice he took
And she, with patience tries anew,
And answers only with look.
So man goes on from day to day
And chides his spouse for all that fails.
IT'S an example of the way
That history repeats it's tales.

A Universal Alphabet.

Some of the advocates of spelling reform
have recognized the futility of the mass
attack upon the traditions which guard the

tention to a cause which. though innocent
In itself, may lead indirectly to the goal OF
their hearts desire. This is a movement
for universal phonetic alphabet based
upon the present Roman letters. The plea
is made that if only universal acceptance
could be secured. the pronunciation of for
eign tongues would be simplified, inter-
course and mutual understanding facili-
tated and the expansion Of English as a
word-language FASTENED.
