Tom Watson's Populism.
Says the Providence Journal:

Says the Providence Journal:
Tom Watson may not agree with
Major Harvey's dictum that the days of
populist usefulness are past, but of course
he does not wish to agree with 1t. The
progress of events is hostile to the populiSt
presidential candidate of last year. and If
he tries to repeat his campaign in 1908 he
will find 1t is harder to persuade his
diences than it was in 1904 that he de-
serves to be taken seriously. Two vital
obstacles are in the path of further popu-
list success: First, the disposition of the
great political organizations to study the
corporation problem with sincerity, and
second. the prosperous condition of the
farmers in the west and south who were
inclined to be populists only so long as the
wolf howled at the door.
Mr.. Watson will adjust his populism to
1908 as he did to 1904. Sufficient unto the
year is the populism thereof. He Is an
artist in his line. and meets all emer-
gencies. He may quote the democracy as
authority for his performance. If it could
run Judge Parker. gold-standard man.

question, four years after running Mr..

And populism. be 1t remembered, is an
elastic word. There is a populism of the
and the two popuisms differ in glory. The
populism of the lean year is thing of the
past. That was the product of the grass
hopperS in Kansas. the drouths of the mid
ole states and low-priced cotton in the
south. 1t had its day, and that day was
lively one. Some tall timber went down
before the storm that was raised The
proposition was to restore prosperity to
the farmer by legislation.
The pOpulism of the fat year is now at
hand. and Mr.. Watson Is explaining 1t.
Want is no longer the complaint. Plenty is
admitted. but it is not fairly distributed.
Too much of 1t Is in a few hands. and those
who hold 1t are making the people their
slaves. Mr.. Watson. through his magazine

Gen. Porter's Evidence.

Doubling Thomsses may find satisfaction

Paul Jones' body, but Gen. Horace Porter

NJ casual opinion of his own that he ad-
vances. The French anthropologists have
gone over the circumstances detail by de-
tail and scrupulousy verified each point by
the recorded facts of history. Gen. Porter
rests his case absolutely on their judgment
John Paul Jones was no mythical person

measurements of his features were pre-
served in the great Houdon's bust; his stat
ure and his manner of dress were reported
by his contemporaries. The manner in
which his body was prepared for burial.
the material of the casket and the approx
innate location of the grave were beyond
random guesSwork. What remained to be
done was the work of identification. That
Gen. Porter intrusted to the most expert
investigators of Paris 1t is a truly patri-
otto service that Gen. Porter has rendered
his country, generously assumed and zeal
ously pursued. Appreciation of his loyal
labors should be fully and frankly testified
in his welcome home.

More Air.

The proposed amendments to the building
regulations relating to the construction of
apartment houses, now held under advise
ment by the District Commissioners, have in
view the prevention of the grave evil of too
great a crowding of the building lot. If
precautions are ever to be taken to check
the congestion of the residence section of
the city now is the time to act, before the
conditions have become seriously inimical
to the public health. One of the most i'm
pcrtant factors in the preservation of the
public health is a free circulation of air,
and the experiences of other cities clearly
proves that unless the construction OF large
apartment houses is carefully regulated in
this respect entire families may be deprived
of sufficient air for the proper sustenance
of life. 1t is obvious that an apartment
that overlooks small interior court. en-
tirely surrounded by masonry. cannot be
well ventilated. Yet there are many cases
of such suites of rooms constantly occupied
throughout the year. There are no front
door-yards or parkings in which the occu-
pants of such a dwelling can refresh them
selves in summer. They must vacate their
apartments for the parks or the street ears,
and return later to sleep in hot and stuffy
rooms. If the proposed amendments are
adopted the evil will be appreciably lessened.

Unfortunate Russian Methods.

Conditions In Russia have not at any
time or in anything since the war began
been more forcibly illustrated than in the
matter of choosing the ENJOYS to negotiate
peace. The war party and the peace party
again asserted themselves. One put for
ward men likely to make negotiations diff
ficult and probably defeat them leaving the
situation more difficult than ever. while the
other proposed men openly DESTROYS of peace

of peace. The car, we have been led to
believe, has been pulled and hauled, first to
one side and then to the other. until his
helplessness and indecision aroused public
sympathy bordering on pity.
In all his business. and indeed in all mat
tiers pertaining to Russian policy. the world
observes shuttle Too much fine work
appears. and yet not fine enough to accom-
plish the ends sought The explanations as

to the point of absurdity. Who believes
that a man of his position and record is not
well qualified for the duties Russia demands
of a peace envoy? He Is one of the most
scholarly officials In her service. and Is
filling a diplomatic post of great impor-
lance. His poor health sounds like a head
ache excuse at dinner party. He is not

there.
NJ White is the substitute, and yet we are
asked to believe that he is not coming
armed with the spirit that has animated
him a statesman. Stories put out
OF stormy interviews with the car. during
which NJ. Witte is leCtured and warned
that he is not his own man by any means
and must have a care about what he does
while abroad. All OF which, If it have any
effect at all. is to dscredit NJ. White and
shear him of the prestige he enjoys before
the world one of his country's very
strongest men.
This sort of craftsmanship. diplomacy,
o. what you will. defeats its purposes. The
world has passed beyond it. Fictions and
dupiicity are too easily exposed now in the
white light that beats. not only upon
thrones, but upon all who serve in high
places and upon their performances.

Considering the condition in the upper Po-
