nestly study and assist in the unselhsh exploit
tation and development OF the islands under
President Roosevelt and Secretary Taft
We opponents accept the verdict or pubic
opinion We are the frmest supporters of the
development of the islands for the islanders. L
admit that it is impossible to fix time for
granting Independence but believe IL possible
to prescribe the conditions deserving indepen-
dence-namey, when order is maintained, when
the dignity of labor is understood and when the
islands are self-supporting
The United States must first establish endur-
ing peace. Secretary Taft represents the
greatest republic. assuring peace. Archbishop
Harty represents the spirit OF the moral law,
which is necessary TO make men work faithfully
and maintain honest relations.
IL is a happy moment tonight when the
church and state sit facing each other and
magnihcently cooperating.
There are times when words are inadequate

bereavement. 1t is true Mr.. Cochran still an
nounces himself as opposed to annexation"
and for aught we know he may also be opposed
10 grayitatiOn. but on both these great subjects
he is inclined TO accept the verdict of public
opinion This is reasonable, and IL is difficult
10 see what else Mr.. Cochran could do under
the circumstances with the representative OF
six millions of Filipinos rejoicing i'm the fact
that he and they are now under the American
flag. Still. it is sad to think of the emotions

THE FAITHFUL WOUNDS OF FRIEND

If Mr.. Jerome has behind his impusiveness
the largeness of mind TO see his own mistakes
and the capacity to govern himself so necessary
for the best work in helping to govern others, ne
Will, in thankfulness and seriousness, read, mark,
learn and inwardly digest the admonitions ad-
dressed to him yesterday by The New-fork
World, which reprint in another column.
They are the faithful wounds of a friend. When
Mr.. Jerome first declared his independence of
party machines and his readiness TO run for
reelection as candidate of unorganized citi-
zens The World" went enthusiastically to his
support and made his cause its own. 1t has
secured names to be put on his nomination
papers. 1t is still earnest in its belief in him
and the policy of political independence which
he champions Its rebuke of his intemperance
and reckless injustice is delivered soberly and
in helpful spirit
If Republican newspaper, even though II
admired Mr.. Jerome's sturdy Independence ana
wished his reelection were to lecture him for
his unbridled tongue IL would. of course, be said
that it was disturbed by his truth telling
The World" Is not open TO that charge 1t is
as much opposed TO Republican party politics
as Mr.. Jerome can be. Nor Is It's concern merely
based on thoughts of expediency. 1t objects be-
cause it feels that what Mr.. Jerome says is not
true Mr.. Jerome may may not, by his reck-
less speech ALLEVIATE possible supporters whose
aid is absolutely necessary to his success. He
might scorn such considerations and gain ap-
plause in so doing His prospects are not the
point at issue, but his own character Straight
forward courage of Expression is one thing; If
responsible slander is quite another. And Mr.
Jerome should be on his guard if he does not
want to arouse the belief among sober minded
citizens that his boasted calling of spade a
spade is something entirely different. The Dis
1x-aE Inrlh hfJf
admonitions and live up to the responsibilities
of his high Office. He should avoid levity and
recklessness of speech and learn TO weigh his
words

SOBOR AND PARLIAMENT.

The coming National Assembly in Russia will
not be an effective parliament but still less
will it be a zemsky sober of the old Russian
kind The sober was an institution which flour
shed from the time of Ivan the Terrible to that
of Michael Romanof, or perhaps that of Alexis
Michaelovitch Romanoff, the father Of Peter
the Great. but has since been unknown. 1t was
always called ad hoe, for a specific purpose as
this assembly will not be, and it invested
with certain authority which this assembly
may not possess The occasions of the chief
sobors are worth recalling, to show the part
those gatherings played in the early history of
the empire
The first was called together by Ivan Gr0zny,
or the Terrible. the most autocratic and despotic
of all Russian Cars. and the first of all TO
abandon the old title of Veiky Kniaz, or Great
Prince and be crowned as Caesar He sum-
moned TO Moscow 339 boyars clergymen, landed
proprietors. merchants and townsfolk. TO decide
whether or not he should continue his war
against Poland for the acquisition OF Riga and
other parts of I4ivland and its unanimous de-
csiOn was that he should do so. A second came
at the end of the Ivanovitch dynasty, when for
time there was an nterregnum. Boris
! Godunoff the AIOngol usurper summoned II
sober Of 474 members of the same classes as
| before. to elect new Gar OF course 1t
unanimously elected him. Again, at another
interregnum, at the end of the dynasty of Rurik,
a sober was called to elect a Gar. 1t unAni-
mously chose Michael TheOdorovitch Romanoff,
and thus ended the Time of Troubles and estab-
| lished the modern Russian Empire. The last
of ALL concerning which records are obscure and
uncertain, was called probably by Alexis, son of
Michael ROmanoff and father of Peter the Great,
| in connection with his great reforms. for it was
he who cOdifed Russian laws, proclaimed the
! equality of all his subjects under the law and
established the Russian diplomatic service
Nicholas II will not summon his assembly in
such a way. Certainly il will not have for its
aim the establishment of a new dynasty. If it
should be identified with the ending of the war
and with the establishment of great domestic
reforms combining some of the features of the
| first and last sobors, it would he q worthy link
| between the sobors of the past and the parlla-
mentS of the future.

AN OLD JOKE KILLED.

In the good old days of the Buckley Sere-
naders and the Christy Minstrels audiences
always laughed when the pompous interlocu-
tor asked: Now, Br'r Bones. can you tell me
what river runs froo Phladelphia?' and when
Bones replied; You're mistaken. sab! muffin
runs frOo Philadelphia"
The minstrel stage has undergone a great
change since then. The interlOcutor, 'bones, "
the impossible plantation negro and the singer
of sentimental slavery day songs have made
room for class of comedians but the
Philadelphia joke Is still doing service. Its
day has come. however. If the reports from
that city may be relied upon. \ patrol wagon,
so the story goes, was recently called TO take
a man who had dislOcated his shoulder TO the
hospital. The horses were driven so quickly
and the injured man bumped and shaken
to such an extent that the dislocated bones were
brought into their normal positions and the
man arrived at the hospital considerably rufied
up but requiring no surgical aid
The unusual treatment will hardly become
popular and will not take the place of methods
now in vogue. even in Philadelphia, where the
remarkable cure was effected. but il knocks
the props from under a shopwOrn joke which
for years has had no foot TO stand upon.
Something does run in Philadelphia.

THE TRIcoLoR ON THE VICTORY

Few recent incidents have made a stronger
appeal TO the imagination and 10 sentiment
than that of this week AT old Portsmouth Eng
land British and French officers and sailors
have fraternized, the King has been enter
tanned aboard French warship a strong
squadron of the French navy has entered the
harbor, and. perhaps above all. Nelson's Vie
tory has fired a friendly salute TO the success
sors of those whom it yanquished at Trafalgar
and has flown the tricolor where once il bore
the signal that spoke the naval doom of France;
and October Il will be the centenary of Trafa-
gar, Truly these be great dongs for Mel
sons year
Equally strong too, is the appeal 10 common
sense approval. There are speculat tlons upon
the possibility OF formal alliance Ii may or
may not be deemed expedient 10 make such n
convention-probably not, at least as long as
the present war continues between the allies Of
these two powers. What is unquestionabIe and
most obvious, however, is that 1t is expedient
and mutually profitable and in all ways de-
sirabe for Great Britain and France TO cult
yate that union of hearts which is really
more potent and more enduring than a written
treaty. There are no other two nations In all
Europe between which such relationship Is so

uB cOCKR4N SEES LIGHT

Tie whirigis of time brings about some queer
things. and one of the queerest is the speech Of
the Hon Bourke Cochran the other day in far
away Manila. The occasion was the banquet
given by the Most Rev. jeremiah Harty, Arch
bishop Of Manila. in honor Of Secretary Taft and
his party The Archbishop, speaking, as he said.
for six million Filipino Catholics presented "A
roseate picture of affairs IN the islands. con-
cluding with the assertion that zone of the
brightest chapters Of history will DE that con
tanning the story Of American success in the
philippines and adding that he would live
there and die there. seeing the glorious develop
ment under the American administration"
OF course the Archbishop is not supposed TO
be familiar with the antecedents Of all the dis
tinguished statesmen and orators who are men,
bers Of Secretary Taft's party, and, therefore,
he must lee eXculpated from any intention TO
wound the feelings Of any of his guests And
the most surprising thing of all is that the
words he used in regard TO American occupation
and administration Of the Philippines do not
seem to have met with protest from any quar-
ter. but were, the contrary, heartily and
unanimously applauded
And then BOurke Cochran, erstwhile the asso-
ciate and loud resounding champion OF anti
imperialism IN its EXTREMIST form. rose 10
speak. Instead Of referring, in the manner of
Democratic orators half decade ago. TO the in
famous purchase OF "Filipinos at So a head ''
during the administration OF Emperor McKln-
ley" and citing the virtues Of the iIlustrious
Filipino, George Washington Aguinaldo, Mr..
Cochran, with silver voice and seemingly an
unburdened conscience launched into a strain
that will be read with binding tears by the few
and rare survivors Of the antis. On such an
occasion we dare not trust 10 a recapitulation
Justice 10 the former fellow ants Of the eloquent
orator demands that his own words tell the sad
tale OF his lapse from the heights OF anti-impe-
rsslism Said Mr. Cochran:
We are blazing unparalleled paths and are
subjected 10 the most rigid scrutiny. j feel the
most profound confidence in the success Of
American destiny IN the Philippines. ] am OPP

The spIendor of the achievement is supremacy

perceived in it no intent of menace to any other
power That is more than could be SAID OF
some treaties and alliances of recent years
which were made avowedly for purposes Oh pos

ers have simply determined TO cultivate the
mut,laI friendship which is made desirable by
their close proximity and their community of
