Closing an editorial on this subject on
Monday, Feb. 26, the Washington Post
says:
1t is not exactly the Ben Tillman who
fetched his pitchfork into the chamber
of 1.-THE most dignified legislative body in
the world" eleven years ago. and meta
phorically plucked the beard of some of
our cOnscript fathers. That Ben Tillman
religiously believed that there was but
one honest man in the national councils,
and he a gentleman from South Carolina
with pitchfork in his hand. This Ben
Tillman is bravely over that. He has
grown rapidly. and it is a healthy growth.
His honesty is as sturdy, his independ-
ence is as defiant, his methods as aggres-
sive. his speech as blunt. his resolution
as tenacious as ever. Nor is that all-he
is become one of the most formidable
debaters in the Senate. and mentally he
is the most aggressive and intrepid
public man in the country.
Ii nee astonish nobody if Mr.. Aldrich's
flank movement shall turn out piece Of
Roosevelt luck" At least we know
that it will be big job to iuggle with q
bill in the keeping of Benjamin R. Till
man.

The VanderbiIts in Italy.

Our Eastern friends-we refer to the
jewellers in that contracted but halcyon
territory of which New York City is the
center-no doubt represent the perfect
thing in morals, manners, civilization, cul-
ture ETC., within their immediate boun-
diaries. On the whole, we rather think
they do. But they do not seem to figure
advantageously in emergencies and at
long distances from the Waldorf Astoria
hotel.
These philosophical reflections are in.
spired by the recent automobile expert
ence of young w. X. Vanderbilt in Italy.
AS we already know, that scion of a
somewhat immature but particularly af-
fluent and resembling aristocracy has just
been roughly handled by an Italian mob.
He was touring the land of radiant sun
sets in his high-power automobile, run
ming amrck through the orange and mag
nolia groves of Tuscany, so to speak and
with that beautiful hauteur so character
istic of the elite, strewing his triumphant
path with the mangled remains of cats,
dogs, poultry and other domestic animals,
including children. He was doing, in fact
percisely whdt he had been accustomed
to do at Newport and Lenox, on Long
Island, in Westchester County and wher-
ever the common people pay proper re-
spect to the upper classes. Nevertheless,
according to the press reports, young
w. K. Vanderbilt has been assaied by
an Infatuated peasantry--actua dragged
from his expensive juggernaut and, we
fear, hustled, kicked, cuffed, and gen.
orally mussed up. We do not recall an
incident so offensive in the whole history
of American missionary work abroad 1t
makes our gorge rise to an extent quite
painful.
But we cannot defend young Vanderbilt
as we should like to. He was we'll
within his rights as a representative of
our American nobility in tearing about
over those Italian roads at top speed.
We stand by him in that respect with
out the smallest reservation. He made
a fatal mistake, however, in drawing his
revolver upon the Tuscan populace when
he really didn't mean to use it. That
sort of bluff won't work, even in Arkan-
sas or Arizona. A gentleman must
never pull his gun unless he proposes
to do something with something
prompt and bitter. More men have
lost their lives in the South and West
through such impulsive overtures than
through smallpox, fever, and consump-
ton all combined. 1t won't do. 1t
wouldn't do even in Georgetown or Alex
andria. When a gentleman exhibits a
six-shooter and doesn't use it with
promptness and dispatch, the chances
are ten to one that somebody will knock
him on the head before he is half a
minute older.
1t is the ambition of strenuous and
earnest life to get these New Workers into
touch with the realities. What we want
is to see them taking their proper and
appointed place in the rapturous equa.
ton. They are the most beautiful and
radiant things we have, and we fairly
yearn for the legitimate contamination.
But they can't go about drawing guns
for purposes of mere bluff. They had
much better apologize and pay the bill.
