AFRAID oE PoLIrlcs.

II he committee OF Seventy Of
u Philadelphia is duplicating the
experiences OF its predecessor the
Municipal League. The secretary finds
that the general public, including the
ministers, is apathetic. The general
ecuse for not supporting that orani-
cation is so venerable that IL may
have originated with Adam. They say
that they are engaged in promoting
education, right-living, and general
morality. and that they cannot be di-
rerted into politics.
Now az the bottom OF an organized
society lies politics. II 81 is good an
men should participate one way or
another; II bad then how shall there
De reform except by the participation
Of the decent olementg There are
nany persons who make the word
'politics" synonymous with only its
blaclSest aspects, and thereby nnd an
excuse for non-participation.
Since politics has SO much to do
with the condition OF organized socie-
~ one would imagine that. using the
word IN the larger sense. all apostles
Of morality would be politicians. But
there Is a great deal Of sophlstry IN
the world, and as long as men consult
merely their own convenience, words
and phrases must stin stand for arr
guments- A majority Of the people OF
philadelphia are satisfied; otherwise
q majority would manage 10 salve their
oonscaences sufficiently 70 allow them
10 engage in tho right sort OF politics.

WHY THEY PROTEST.

TT is a very easy thing to sneer at
Il the remedies people offer TO
correct abuses. There are thousands
Of persons who can show wherein the
remedy the President suggests for rail-
road abuses is too drastic and too
fun OF objections. but we notice that
these same persons give no evidence
Of themselves Offering a remedy.
When outrageous conditions confront
men It may be very foolish to show m-
patience, but it is exceedingly natural
For example. the Southern growers Of
early fruit and truck claim that their
present losses Will run into millions
Of dollars because the car trust has
not furnished them with sufficient vars.
Who would blame these farmers who
pay very heavy freight rates and who
are yet denied cars, from making al-
most any kind Of a protest?
A few days ago the fruit growers of
Michigan We're asked by the Armours
to withdraw their charges filed with
the Interstate Commerce Commission,
on consideration of having the rates
reduced from thirty TO forty per cent
The farmers refused regarding the
tender as only an admission OF pas,
robberies. With these and other abuses
occurring every day IS there any won-
der that those.w who suffer from them
become impatient for a remedy? And
it is also natural that the President
should feel the necessity for some po-
sitive interference.

pie in Dover on Thursday must be re.
garded as a success in a number Of re-
spscts. The attendance was good, and IN
its action The convention was conserva-

a firm stand was taken for two things
in Delaware politics; The doing away
with corruption and securing OF a right
% vote on tho question OF intoxicating
liquors. The stand against bribery is very
geatifying The demand for local option
and The denunolation Of the action Of tho
list Legislature on so-called temperance
legislation were. OF course. to be expect

tion was equally emphatic ab0us conup-
iiob.

didates FOR the Legislature acceptable

There is quite some discussion in the
press Of this state in reference 70 the
making Of certain appointments. The wis
dom Of Governor Lea in naming the
present Secretary OF State. and the ques-
ton Of an understanding that Dr. Lay
ton was to be ro-appointed, has been
argued pro and con by those interested.
We are not advised OF the existence OF
any such agreement, but do remember
distinctly that Governor Lea declined the
nomination in writing, when it was first
offered to him, because the agreement OF
the two State Committees contained
some reference 70 the appointment OF
Secretary OF State and afterwards the
agreement was changed 10 conform TO
HIS position. In all this discussion. how
ever, no charge IS made that the Gov
ernor has made any appointments from
personal considerations. We believe that
he Is trying IN an that he does to best
advance the interests OF the Republican
party, while securing 10 the State the
best service possible. He has high
standard Of ability and fitness and those
who do not measure up to this standard
are not appointed. We believe further,
that he viii continue on this line.-AIid-

SOME PETTY THIEvING.

Last night between seven and
eight O'Clock some person or persons
entered one of the rooms in the sec
ond story of the rooming house at
400 Colorado avenue and stripped
two beds of nearly all the clothing
that was upon them.
shortly before eight O'Clock two
men had engaged the room from Mrs
Agard who has charge of the house
went to their room and returning al
most Immediately stated that the
maid had evidently forgotten to pre-
pare their room as there were no
covering on the bed Mrs. Agard
stated that there was surely a mis-
take as the beds had been prepared
but investigation proved that thieves
had entered the room and taken away
the clothing. having evidently come
up the stairway which is on the out
side of the east wall of the building.
No one had been seen to enter the
building.
Inquiries We're made for the stolen
goods this morning at the second
hand stores as It was thought that
the thieves might attempt to sell the
goods at once but nothing was learn
ed.
Yesterday a lady came in from the
country to make some purchases.
Buying quite large amount of cloth
ing she had it put in a box and she
took it out and placed it in her
wagon. Returning to the store she
remained for a few moments and
then being ready to go home return
ed to the wagon with her children
to find that the box OF clothing had
been stolen during her short absence.
No trace of the missing goods could
be found The loss was quite a heavy
one to the woman as she could not
afford to lose such quantity of
goods. The matter was placed in the
hands of the officers and seach
made.
Some sneak thief stole two good
horse collars from ranchman's
wagon yesterday afternoon while the
wagon was standing on vacant lot,
The team had been embarrassed and
the harness placed upon the wagon.
The thief evidently needed only
two collars as the rest of the harness
was not disturbed.
There has been quite number of
just such acts of petty thievery in
the city during the past few weeks
and sharp look out is being kept
by the officers.
