MR.. O'LEARY'S PLEA

John OLeary of 149 Broadway, New
York, is troubled because this coun-
try mas not violated neutrality in be-
half of Russia and he is sending out a
letter about it to all newspapers. He
refers pathetically to the friendship Of
Russia for this country, when Russia
with one hand soothed Lincoln's
troubled forehead (Mr. O'Leary de-
clares this is no metaphor), and with
the other menaced all Europe, and
England in particular" For this rea-
son he believes all the veterans of 81
should be for Russia.
The trouble with many of the gen.
tlemen whose names begin with O's is
that they think America should love
everybody who mates England. In the
strife between Russia and Japan, tnis
O'Leary wishes, for reasons very
clearly stated in the presidents appeal
for peace. This country is attached to
both Russia and Japan by many ties
of friendship and common interest.
We did not want them to fight, believ-
ing that their differences could be ad-
justed without war, but they did fight
and the United States maintained neu-
trality fairly and squarely. The opin-
ions Of newspapers and indiciduals are
not necessarily government opinions.
If Mr.. O'Leary is dissatisfied with the
opinions of any persons he should set
right to work to convert them, as he,
apparently, is doing.

MORTON AND THE SANTA FEE.

The correspondence in the Paul
Morton case consists Of four principal
documents. There is the letter of the
Messrs. Harmon and Judson, the gov
ernment's special counsel; the attor-
ney generals letter to them; Mr.. Nor
toms letter to the president, and the
presidents reply to Mr.. Morton. To-
gether they begin and close the ques-
ton whether the government snail take
action personally against the officials
Of the Santa Fee railroad system, in
Guiding Paul Morton, on account of the
obtained against it.
The president decides in the mega
tive, and delivers Mr.. Morton to pri-
vate life with a clean bill of health,
and the best wishes for his future
prosperity.
After reading all the letters We are
convinced that the president is wrong
in this matter, and that his usual good
judgment and his high sense of duty
nave been misled. It is rather strange
and somewhat disconcerting to find it
so. because the letter of Messrs. Har-
mon and Judson appears to be a clear
justification of the action they advise.
The governments lawyers said the
injunction had been violated; they did
not know by whom, because the ac-
cused is a corporation. A rule could
be had, however which would bring
the officers of the guilty corporation
into court and compel them to disclose
their personal connection The rule,

POLITICS CROPPING OUT.

The politics of the Equitable muss
begins to come out. The state super
intendent is implored not to bear
down too hand" on Chauncey Depew
in his report, just because Chauncey
drew 100000 from the societys treas
ury for twenty years "counseling'
and never appeared in court. Cover
nor Higgins is reported to be 'in con-
ference" with former Governor Odell,
the Equitable directors. Superintend-
ent Hendricks is an attache of the ma
chine and it is claimed his report is
not to be given out until it has been
edited by the committee composed Of
Plat and Odell. Dire, indeed, must be
the straits of the organization when
they serve to bring Plat and Odell to-
gether as a committee of editors.
Why all this political fuss over the
affairs of the Equitable? How, should
they affect republican or democratic
politics in the Empire state? 1t may
be partly offensive butting in on the
part of politicians who want to have a
hand in everything, it may be that the
subway situation has something to do
with the activity of the statesmen
Ryan, who bought the Hyde stock, is
a gold democrat. He is to bid On the
next subway. If he gets the contract
he will employ enough men to carry
kingdom. If he has the Equitables
surplus to handle he will probably get
the contract. Is Ryan getting too close
to the crib to suit the republican boss
es in New York?
1t is rather sickening to see and
hear all this political palaver over the
company. The Ryan grip on the
Equitable should be knocked off, not
because of subway contracts or poll
tics, but because Grover or no Grover,
it is a more immoral and indecent
grip than that of Hyde. The society
should be mutualized Immediately and
the policy holders protected. The
Equitable will have hard work getting
any more new business until the scor-
pions of Wall street cease to sting it
and the constructors of high finance
cease to enfold it in their loving en-
brace.

this paper said: But, if by any pos
sibility, the legislature should happen
to pass railroad commission bill Mr..
Mead can still keep faith with the men
who nominated him, by appointing a
commission satisfactory to the rail-
roads, which would be worse than no
commission at ALL In view of the
commissioners selected by Governor
Mead, the editor has no desire to re-
tract or modify that assertion. He be-
lieves that Fairchild, McMillin and
Lawrence are as satisfactory to the
railroads as they are unsatisfactory to
the real friends and advocates of the
commission policy. Each one of them
is an ambitious politician. Each one
of them has in the past worked with
the railroads to defeat the enactment
of a commission law. Each one of
them was an active and bitter oppo-
nent of Governor Mcbride in his fight
to rid his party of railroad domina-
ton. Each one of them was an en-
thusiastic supporter of the state ticket
dictated by the lobby. Each one of
| them has played for railroad support
in the past and, being politically ambi-
tious, is likely to try to make sure of
| the same support in the future.
while it is fair to estimate a mans
future acts by his past record, some
times such an estimate proves false.
| There have been cases where men. on
being appointed to positions of respon-
sibility, have risen to the occasion and
changed their entire manner of life and
| thought. The railroad commissioners
appointed by Governor Mead may ac-
complish something, they may give the
people some relief, they may try to
make the law something more than a
dead letter. The Commoner sincerely
trusts that they may, but will not be
surprised if they do not. But they are
certainly entitled to fair trial and
should not be condemned as unfaithful
servants until they have proved by
their acts that they deserve sucn a
verdict

NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS:
PUBLIC OPINION AT WORK.

Washington GLADDEN. in an article in
a Chicago paper says the honest peo-
pie Of any community can purify their
government if they will, and, by a
simple method. This method, accord
ing to DR.. GLADDEN., is the awakening
of public opinion.
daughter of Philadelphia councilman
who went home form school one night
crying because the children had called
her a gas thiefs daughter. Her father
could sit in the council chambers
where the Hobbies were full of indig-
nant, protesting citizens and where
noOses dangled from the galleries sug-
costing the fate of the men who would
dare to vote for BOSS Durham's" gas
ordinance, but he couldn't stand the
tears of his little child. Her grief
touched his heart. He began to real
lie what grief his family had come to
suffer, that they were in danger Of be-
ing socially ostracized, and he went
promptly to Mayor Weaver and pledg-
ed his support for overthrowing the
gas ring.
Public opinion reached that alder
man through his family, but before it
had reached him, it had reached an
afforded a more striking illustration of
its power than that cited by DR.. Glad
den. When Mayor Weaver left Phil
adelphia, on the eve Of the adoption of
the Infamous gas ordinance, he did so
in order to escape responsibility in
that connection, and apparently was
willing to allow the crooked deal to go
through if only he might not be held
responsible in any particular.
But Mayor Weaver couldn't escape.
A Philadelphia paper followed him
every step of the way to Chicago.
Whenever the train stopped there was
a reporter forcing himself into Mr..
Weaver's presence, unwelcome but
persistent, to ask him about the gas
deal, to report what he said, to describe
how he looked and how he acted. These
reports were telegraphed back to
the newspaper and printed in Phila-
delphia.
Mayor Weaver saw that he was sure
to be held up to the public gaze in his
true light, and as the result Of this per-
sistent exposure he was compelled to
return to Philadelphia and take the
leadership which deceived upon MIN in
An offensive campaign against the gas
ring. Mayor Weaver's sudden change
of policy and sudden assumption of a
fighting attitude was the direct re-
suit Of the pressure of public opinion.
Public opinion can reach almost any
man in the public service who wants
to be crooked, or is trying to shirk re-
sponsibility, if it will only go after
him in the right way.

WHAT CHICAGO NEEDS.

The ten needs of Chicago, according
to the Lake View Woman's club, are:
One-More women's clubs.
Two-Real culture.
Three-Less noise and dirt.
Four-Less extravaganza in dress
and living.
Five-HOme missionaries for chill
dren.
Six-More conscientious apprecia-
ton Of the obligations of citizenship.
Seven-More hospital beds for chill
dren.
Eight-More homes for old people.
Nine-A social center for colored
people.
Ten-A new charter.
These seem many needs even for
Chicago, which needs nearly every
thing, but they are all comprehended
in the first. What Chicago needs is
more womens clubs. The rest will
follow.

they declared, would be demand for
an explanation rather than accusa-
ton. This rule the attorney general
declines to apply for on the ground
that there is no evidence against any
individual officers of the corporation.
Naturally there was not, but there was
evidence against the corporation itself
and it was the privilege as well as
the duty of the government to learn,
if possible, who was responsible for
the act of the corporation in breaking
the law. 1t is certain that the corpo-
ration did not violate the law without
human connivance. 1t is equally GER
tain that those officers or employees OF
the corporation who connived would
not come forward and confess before
they were accused. Therefore, it seems
the attorney general created a mo
thoroughfare" for his attorneys when
he first insisted that he would not pro-
coed against persons, because there
was no evidence gainst persons, and
then declared he would not take the
ordinary legal means of revealing ev-
idence against persons, because that
evidence was not already before him
No wonder Messrs. Harmon and Jui-
son thanked him for his courtesy and
then resigned.
The president in closing the case
tells Mr.. Morton that there is no ev-
idence against him and accepts Mr.
Morton's evasive and unsatisfactory
explanation of the Santa Fee rebates as
complete. Somewhere the president
has been run onto misplaced
switch" in this business. OF course.
Mr.. Roosevelt is not infallible, but he
is 80 nearly always right that 1t is a
matter of great regret that we are
forced to the conclusion that he has
made a bad mistake in this Morton
case.
