5th day of February. 1906. his ad-
minIstration has yet to prove itself
a reform in the slightest degree.
Illinois has needed redemption as
badly as Missouri, though possibly
net precisely in the same way. IN
Missouri the power has been divided
between a Democratic governor and
a Republican Legislature. il Illi-
nois it has been concentrated on a
Republican governor. But the effect
of the two administrations up TO this
point is that Missouri is an inspira-
tion TO the lovers of good govern
ment in every other State and Illi-
nois a sad discouragement.

A Civilized Schedule.

The Algeciras conference has
demonstrated its excuse for exist
ence. 1t was Senator Spooner, if
recollection serves. who predicted
that this conference might prove of
the greatest importance. but it may
we'll be doubted if even the pre-
science of the Badger statesman
carried him TO the point of anticipat-
ing the tremendous significance with
which that gathering was pregnant.
At its Saturday session, according
TO dispatches, the Moors' tariff was
lengthily discussed, all the powers
except Morocco finally deciding that
they would accept neither the princi-
pie nor the rates as a basis"
That is, Morocco's protective tariff
is held by the delegates of the Chris
tian powers to be unchristian. inde-
cent, and wrong. This determina-
ton was due" proceeds the Algeciras
cablegram, Ito the excessive rates
which the Moors sought to impose
on foreign commodities entering
Morocco, the conference taking the
view that such a system would tend
TO defeat the principle of the open
door" And farther on 1t is explain
ed that the present rates are about
10 per cent ad ya!orem, and that
the conference vii! permit them 20
be raised to 1919 per cent.
With awe and wonder we contem-
plate the spectacle OF Germany. with
her tariff rates so high that an Am
erican pig couldn't be shot over the
wall with a thirteen-inch cannon; of
would blush for shame at associa-
tion with a meek and humble l21a
per cent schedule; of France, Spain,
Austria, eId all the rest of the high
tariff continental powers. seriously
deciding that an increase beyond
121z per cent is excessive and would
destroy the principle of the open
door. 1t is good TO think of the guf-
faw that must have gone up from
the English delegates when their col
leagues thus fixed a limit on a civil
liZed tariff.
For now there is the word of the
associated powers of Christendom as
10 THAT constitutes a fair tariff
True. they are fixing tie rates foI
somebody else. But why not accept
this decision, and hen call a con
ference of the powers TO sit on the

The other can be found in Illinois,
where a reform governor has will

lance with one of the very leaders
he had underta ken TO d'splaee.
AS Folks friends put it, he has
made good. He has enforced exas-

amount of Sunday lawbreaking, In
the form of assault and disOrdeF!y
conduct, by half He has controlled
for the public good ali the special
legislation which the State Legisla-

he has done the hardest thing Of all
he has undertaken to keep within
the law the ,rdignation of his fell
low-white men when the offender
was a negro and his crime the one
offense which white men can never
weigh calmly.
But Deneen has pu sued a differ
ent course. He began by obtaining
his nomination through an. alliance
with the then governor, Richard
Yates. That gentleman, a reformer
at the oItseJ like Deneen. was Just
completing a term Of office as fully
maehined as John r Tanners. He
has been in Office over a year and
has accomplished just one thing
the enactment of a primary law to
which his party was committed be-
fore he became the candidate His
only reform appointments have been

has Indignantly refused to close her
eyes TO the unfaithfulness of the
count; and II her womanly pride
she will, If necessary. sacrifice a

said to have cost her family many
millions.
The count ascribes her action TO
absurd jealousy" but he seems not
to realize that an American woman
cannot condone actions which many
French wives readily pardon in their
husbands. Since the countess is abb
solutely above reproach, Count BOni
will assume the "gentlemanly" at

him to proceed without defense. But
here the gontlemanly attitude ceases.
Boni Is willing to lose the wife,
but he will make a hard legal fight
to retain some Of her millions. IN

the wife sues for alimony; and it Is
usually granted. In the Castellane
