BAD BILL BEATEN.

r. HE LEGISLATURE and the state
are to be congratulated on the de-
eat Of the bill providing for the ex-
|ension of terms of municipal officers.
+'he alleged purpose of the law was to
ave election expenses by having an
|lection not oftener than once in two
ears, instead of every year either a
|ity or county election, as at present.
here is no merit whatever in the con-
IGNITION, but il there mad been the prop
Z way to have solved the problem
|vould have been to elect the city Off
ials next fan for a term of three years,
|sith two-year terms thereafter.
This, however, would have been open
10 the objection that municipal and
General elections should never come to-
|ether. They should be kept apart. In
|ity elections political issues sink into
|elative insignincance- The voters
|sualiy endeavor to select the candi-
lates best fitted for the positions to
hich they aspire. When there are no
candidates except those who are run
ling for city offices it is easy to make
elections on the basis Of merit.
This would not be the case in a gem
raj election that included a city ticket.
FOR example, any Republican in Salt
a-ake City could have been elected may
II last fall. Now we are sure that even
ar Republican friends viii admit that
fhere are at least two or three members
II their party who are not ftted, either
y reputation or by training, to be
'layor of this city. But Roosevelt
-ouId have carried any of them
through last November.
The passage of the Fishburn bill
ould have made the date of the city
|lection coincide with the date of a
|eneral election in 1908. With a popular
residential candidate at the head of
|ither ticket it would be very easy
BEDDING for the municipal nominees on
bat ticket, regardless of their quaHf-
.ations. People do not like to scratch
l1eir ballots in presidential or congress
Eonal elections. They are afraid of los
.lg their votes.
For these reasons and for others that
hight be mentioned the defeat OF the
Iishburn bill was an act Of wisdom.

quarters close enough to make bayonets
of value"
The japanese have demonstrated that
this theory is entirely incorrect. They
have shown in their desperate assaults
on Russian positions that the bayonet
is a death-dealing instrument of ire
mendous effectiveness. Time and time
again they have carried trenches at the
point of the bayonet, driving the
weapons into the breasts of their op-
ponents in the face of a whitening fire.
II may be said that an army that was
not brave TO the point of, fanaticism
could not use bayonets TO advantage.

SO, according to published reports.
the soldiers Of the American army are
again to he supplied with bayOnets to
take the place of the steel rod now fur
nished with rifles to the regular estab-
lishment, the rods being Of no value as
weapons of offense but making excel
lent cleaning implements. The whole
nation viii join in hoping that the time
VIII never come when the American
army viii need bayonets to use against
an enemy, but i'm the meanwhile it is
just as well to be prepared.
War is not changing for the better,
after all. The only difference is that
the power TO Kill and to MAIN is becom-
ing stronger Men suffer now as they
have always suffered in war. They
starve, they SO in rags, they lie wound
