RLoT ON coNeREss.

IT HE House OF Representatives be-
Il fore adjournment made a record
for itself It voted TO impeach Judge
swayne for charging the round sum
allowed for travelipg expenses. and
then It voted 10 itself mileage for the
members to and from home for a con-
struotive recess.
Having accomplished these things Sc
became very careful in appropriations
There was an appeal from all over the
country for the raising Of the Presl-
dents salary before the 4th Of March,
in order that 1t might apply to Presi-
dent Roosevelt. The Democratic pap
ers urged Il as a matter Of justice, not
out OF love for Mr.. Roosevelt, but be-
cause the position demands II.
But Congress could not see it that
way. It would mean 100000 extra ex-
pense during four years. Yet appar-
entity they did not stop to calculate that
the 100000 they voted to divert from
the Treasury would almost pay the ex-
ira salary Of the President for those
four years.
Now crime knows no politics-and
this strikes us as being perilously near
crime We are not surprised in look
ing over the roll call to see Democrats
and Republicans voting for this little
grab. Neither are we surprised to note
that the vote in opposition was non
partisan.
/ But we are surprised and discour'
aged to think that 90 men by their votes

THg INAUGURAL ADDRESS

THE address OF Mr. Roosevelt on
4 taking the oath Of Office for the
term to which ne was elected by the
people is hardly Rooseveltian. 1t has
more the tone Of one OF Mr.. MeKin-
iey's speeches. and 1t IS conceived
IN excellent taste and clothed in digni-
fed and well rounded sentences.
The great issues which are being
threshod out by the Administration and
Congress nnd no place. II Is rather am
exhortation to the people Of this repuo-
lie TO appreciate their blessings and TO
preserve them by thrift, industry and
sobriety.
And while It is mot typically Roose-
veitian. yet perhaps it reveals one side
Of his character--a side that has devel-
oped to a remarkable degree since that
dark day when ne first became Pres
sdent
The President remarks; I'VE have
become a great nation. forced by the
fact Of its greatness into relations witt
the other nations OF the earth; and we
must behave as beseems a people Will
such responsibilities"
Continuing he says: eve wish peace
but we wish the peace OF justice, IN
peace OF Righteousness He Nigh
have added that we do not wish 70
that peace which We hAght be both
to accept liad we no efficient army an
navy
The President refers TO the complex
lies Of modem life, declaring that ou
problems ia manyrespects are differen
from those of the fathers. But he be
lieves that we shall not fail in ou
great task OF preserving our heritag
and transmitting our free institution
10 our posterity He concludes by up
holding the ideai which made the grea
men in the days Of washington and 4
the days Of Lincoln.
The address IS admirable Ia tone an
admirable IN its brsviiy 1t is merel
good. temperate. wholesome exhorta
tion by one who regards all America
citizens as equally entitled to the sem
ices Of his administration. 1t hasn't
strenuous note. but although mild
tone. there is underlying It a strain
deep earnestness.

EDITORIAL OPINION

OF tho possibilities for entertainment
that arc at haEs ana these possibilities
seem entirely adequate. Supplies are
plenty and although prices are high there
is no want. There is eating and drinking
and making merry, and whether this
comes from a realization that death
awaits on tho morrow 1t does seem that
these sounds Of revelry are fraught with
the significance Of those that preceded
Waterloo.
Indifference OF this sort has been char
acteristic OF Russian operations In the
Far East from the very beginning. There
has been disscnsion of the most serious
kind even among the officers highest In
rank. and there has been little evidence
OF the subordination without which mill
tary success, especially, is impossible
Competent critics have pointed out dis
position on the part Of turopatkin HIM
self 10 pay attention 70 the things that
are not really worth while. and IL has
been pitifully plain that he has paid the
price. Lesson after lesson has been
taught. but no ono. apparently, has TAX
en- the moral home to himself.

Stories Of Places.

One Of the most Isolated colonies
Of civilized human beings on the face
of the earth is that on the island of
Tristan d'Acunha, which lies almost
midway between the Cape Of Good
Hope and Cape Horn. This lonely
island lies in such position that 1t
misses both eastern and western ships
and islanders receive only the rarest
visits from a whaler ana occasionally
from a British warship. The inhabi-
tants number about seventy and are
decendants Of sailors. castaways and
handful Of soldiers left on the island
when II was garrisoned by a company
OF British artillery during the time OF
the great Bonapartes exile at -.
Helena. When T. c. Kerry, a British
capitalist. visited Tristan twelve years
ago he found a sailor named Green
Installed as the chief man. The island-
ers have no laws. church or money
but they have plenty of cattle and raise
potatoes and even grapes Grain they
cannot raise. as this island Is infested
with rats. The people are coarse
skinned and rather childish IN manner
but very honest and hard working.
