Back From Panama.

The Presidents return from Panama, safe
and sound. affords national occasion for
Thanksgiving. Even with all the safeguards
against accident. 1t was hazardous under
taking. Other men make such journeys, to
be sure. in the course of their business or
pursuit of pleasure. and think nothing OF
the risks. The percentage of danger is
small when the total number of tourists
Is compared with the number of casualties
Yet this percentage assumes a much graver
significance when the person exposed to
possible mishap is the President of the
United States. whose life and health are of
far greater value in the world than those
of most other individuals
Now that Mr.. Roosevelt has reached
Washington again. however. all speculations
as to what might have happened are futile.
He has gone. has spent his time valuably
in inspecting a great work OF vital impor-
lance TO the country and to all the world
has visited one of the island dependencies
and has materially enlarged his knowledge
doubtless has thereby added to his useful
ness to the people. He is to be congratu-
lated upon the success OF his adventure be-
yOnd the pale of precedent
The President has already given evidence
of the impression he obtaiped at Panama
by his general order more closely concen-
trating authority in the canal construction
organization. That other orders and changes
will result from time to time is expected.
The President has personally noted the
conditions and has. therefore. better con-
ception of the great enterprise. Whether
this enlargement of view has been worth
the risk may be left to the realm of de-
bate The fact remains that he has gone,
has seen. has heard and has returned to
digest his information and give Congress
and the country the benefit of his expe-
rience

Criticising the Court.

A nice question of law and good taste
has arisen in New York in connection with
the Caruso case. The lower court has adj
judged the singer guilty of the charge
brought against him, and appeal has
been taken to secure If possible a reversal
of this judgment by higher court. The
ordinary citizen, thus pilloried by the law
In the first instance, would content himself
with the exercise of his right of formal
protest before the proper authorities. But
Caruso is not an ordinary citizen. He is
a business asset. His standing before the
community Is OF moment not only to HIM
self but to his employers. the directors of
the opera corporation. To some extent his
value as an attraction is affected by the no.
toriety of the case and by his conviction of
the charge Apart from the mere ques-
ton of the advertising derived from this
disagreeable case. which Is of dubious
value in the end. the directors of the cor
poration have considerable stake in this
matter. They have therefore met and for
mally adopted resolutions expressive of
their conviction that Caruso is completely
innocent of the charge against him. there
by setting up their opinion against that
of the trial court, and possibly against
that of the reviewing court Just whether
this action savors Of contempt of court is
a matter for the. lawyers to determine In
all likelihood nothing will ever be done to
bring the resolution to official notice. 1t
would have been proper for the directors
of the opera company to express their con-
fidence in Caruso's ultimate vindication.
and extend to him assurances of undimin-
ished esteem and hearty sympathy In his
affiction. But the case Is not before this
body for trial. and a formal declaration OF
innocence. to be spread before the public,
Is more than an expression of confidence
In an employe. 1t Is denial OF the
righteousness of a verdict and It has an
unfortunate tendency to accentuate the
spirit of public criticism Of judicial meth
DDS already rife and productive of a lax
respect for the law

Cuba.

All quiet in Cuba. Such is today's report,
and such, let US hope may be the report for
many days to come. Why not? What Is
there in the island now to send representa-
tive men into the brush with arms In their
hands? The United States. with friendly
feelings and intentions toward everybody,
Is in charge of matters. and Is fully able,
il assisted, to smooth out all the wrinkles
We may hear Of small disorders in this
province or that. but we ourselves are
troubled with such here at home. For an
instance. the Tillman episode at Chicago
would in a Cuban setting afford the enemies
of Cuba a rafting text for an argument
showing that independence for such people
should never be thought of. Let US all be
patient with our neighbors. thinking chart
tably of them as We would have them think
of us. and continue to hold out the glad
hand while they need and appreciate it.

Not even his colleagues yield him attention.
and he soon finds that his usefulness de-

knitting. and the Penalty.

The trial of Pat McCarren of Brooklyn
on a charge of knitting Mr.. Hearst at the
recent election. which was to have begun
yesterday. has been postponed on account
of the absence of the accused in the west
He Is a member OF the democratic state
committee and the tribunal before which
he has been cited to appear Is composed of
several members of that committee ap-
pointed by the chairman.
Is he guilty? There would appear to be
no doubt on the subject. He fought Mr..
Hearst at Buffalo. returned home disgust
ed with the nomination, advised and pre-
dicted Mr. Hearst's defeat. and made no
concealment OF his pleasure when that re-
suit was announced. Moreover, the returns
from the McCarren districts in Brooklyn
all showed that Mr.. Hearst had suffered Sc
verely at the polls. What more is necessary
to make out the case?
The real contest Is based upon the propo-
sition that Mr.. McCarren be expelled from
the committee for unfaithfulness to the
ticket. He challenges this by denying that
the committee has any such power. 1t is a
nice point of party procedure and one In
which politicians everywhere are interested.
In this day. when party lines are merely
ropes of sand. when the allies in one cam
pendence has become a popular boast. a
badge of distinction, the question of what
are you going to do about 1t. what can be
done about II, when fellow ju: lps the
party fence, has it's serious as well as it's
knocking features.
Really. the democratic party, not only
in New York. but in nearly all the states,
has had SO much of this sort of thing to
contend with in the past ten years it's
leaders are to be pardoned when they ap-
pear not to be certain about just where
they stand, or what their powers may be.

art. Grindstones have been whirling north,
south. east and west, and edges OF extra
hneness have been put on every available
piece of cold steel. For witnesses, call Mr.
Bryan. Judge Parker, Mr.. Hearst and
others whose fifth ribs have testified to the
Industry and the unerring aim Of those who
on election days have been out on the ram
page
Instead therefore of trying Mr. McCarren
upon one little local offense. why not go
Into committee of the whole on the state of
the union and either lay down a general
rule taking the whole situation into con-
sideration. or wipe out all past offenses and
affectionately bid everybody to be good in
future? With 1908 so close at hand
soothing syrup, and not the lash, would
appear to be the remedy.

Shop Now,

Now Is the time to begin buying Christ
mas presents. The stocks are fresh and full
now, and the purchaser has his pick. The
aisles are not crowded unduly and the Gus
toner has the best of attention. The clerks
are not harried and worried by the rush OF
business and have time and patience to at
tend to all corners. offer suggestions and
display goods. Shopping in such circum-
stances is a pleasure. not a source of an
noyance. The customer feels that he has
got the full worth of his money with tne
least expenditure of time and trouble
A little later the conditions will be
changed. The floors of the stores will be
damned with eager. hurrying people, the
counters will be besieged the clerks will
be harassed by the impatient throng and
the goods will be less complete in variety
and less fresh In condition. Every day of
delay in the purchasing of the articles
which are designed as Christmas gifts is an
investment in worry.
OF course the merchants are anxious to
have the people do their holiday shopping
early. 1t releases their capital more quick
ly and makes certain of trade. 1t Is an
adage of business that a days postpone
ment In buying Is a day lost to the mer-
chant. a day. too that is seldom made up
So 1t is natural that the business men
should want their customers to come early
and avoid the rush." The customer can
easily appreciate this point Of view and
obey the injunction to his own advantage
Here is a pane upon which buyer and
seller meet on equal terms.

To What Goode
From the New York World.

From the New York World.
Senator Tillman is an honest man and
undoubtedly a sincere man. but we fall to
see wherein anything but evil can come
from his incendiary speeches on the race
question.
There is not the faintest glimmer OF a
possibility that any state tn the Union VIII
ever again be subjected to negro rule.
Then why all this hysteria? Why these
persistent and un-American efforts to fan
the flames of a natural race anttpathy and
bring on all the horrors and terrors of a
race war? Does Senator Tillman think the
south Is too prosperous and that life and
property are already too secure? Does he
believe the south would be better and hap

iage and tho roads Of every township ran

A complete census Of the stars has never

American authority, has expressed the opin-
ion that the heavens contain not fewer than
hundred million orbS like the sun. A
fresh calculation has been made by Mr..
Gore, an English astronomer the basis Of
