REVIVAL OF THE sToRER CASE.

The publicity which has lately been
given to the troubles Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Beliamy Storer, however it was eff
fected. will not incline TO the Storers
Tire sympathy of the public which had
generally forgotten the whole matter in
the stress of later and more important
events than the removal Of Mr.. Storer
from the court at Vienna.
It is now recalled that this was &C
eoSnplished in a summary manner
characteristic of President Roosevelt,
that the Austrian court was inclined
10 resent a breaking of all conventions
In the matter Of recalling an ambassa-
dor. The people of this country were
also al first inclined TO criticise the
president for an act which put both
punishment and humiliation upon Mr..
Siorer.
Though there is yet some doubt as
TO whether Mr.. Storer was guilty of
any other offense than that OF being
che husband of an oficious and meddle-
some woman who presumed both upon
her social relations to the White
Mouse and the exalted position Of an
ambassador, the presidents prevocation
was great. She was so managing af-
fairs at Rome in the matter Of the
creation of another American cardinal
that but for the indignant promptness
Of the president. his name would have
become entangled in the negotiations
in a most embarrassing manner. He
however. took such brusque and en-
phatic action as to leave no doubt that
he was without interest in the ap-
pointment Of cardinals.
There was also taught a lesson to all
other ambitious women whose hus-
bands might be ambassadors and so
far as Americans were concerned the
incident was considered TO have been
ended.
There was some misunderstanding at
the time as to the extent Of the activity
81 Mrs. Storer in this cardinal affair
but that misunderstanding was regard
ed as unimportant. since there should
have been no activity whatever.

A sELF-APPoINTED TASK.

a Miss Chamberlain Of San Fran
cisco, whose chief claim to Immortality
rests upon the statement that she was
a friend of Frances Willard, is said
by 4 San Francisco dispatch to be at
the head of a movement which affects
all Of US. An organization of which
she is the instigator was to be effected
at Oakland day before yesterday and
trary we presume it was effected. The
object Of it is said by the dispatches to
be ito reproduce the human family"
What's TO become Of US who are now
here? Wen admit that perhaps the
human race is not exactly what 1t
ought to be; that it needs fixing. But
we will submit that it is not beyond
repair and that Of late years it has
shown signs Of Improvement II Miss
Chamberlain will keep her hands off
for a few centuries, in the meantime
keeping her hand in by working over
and. if need be. by reproducing the San
Franciscans, we think we will be able
TO show her human family that will
meet her approval
There's no use to be hasty about this
thing. Leave it TO the Almighty, who
started it, and who in His own way
will bring the human family out all
right
It is true that the reforms which
have been made Of us from time to
time have been effected through chosen
human instruments but we cannot be-
lieve that Miss Chamberlain has been
detailed for the work of reproducing
all of us-in this off-hand manner.

that the worst construction is natur-
ally put upon the first vague and omi-

The locality, the same as San Fran

munications and trade. the time is not
far distant when the Old World will
be served with notice, not only that
the New World is no longer subject
to colonization, but also that con-
troversies as to contractual relations
involving debt, public or private, are
exclusively within the sovereignty Of
the American republic concerned,

TWO-CENT FARE EXPERIENCE.

The 2-cent fare rate, under. the law
passed by the Ohio legislature last
winter, although 1t has been In actual
effect only a few months. is already
surprising the expectations OF its au-
thors. The returns show gross pas
senger receipts on a much larger scale
than under the old Scent rate. 1t is
admitted in railroad circles that local
travel between points within the state
has been greatly stimulated by the re-
ductlon. The effect has even been
such that the electric roads have expe-
rienced some diversion of passengers
to the steam railroads. The cities and
larger towns particularly are gratified
by marked tendency of people to
come in greater numbers and from
longer distances to trade.
Sufficient time has not yet elapsed
for an explicit showing of the effect
on the net profit from passenger
traffic, but no doubt is entertained in
Ohio that 1t will be larger than under
the old high rate. Free transporta-
ton was prohibited by the same law,
and this provision is being rigidly en-
forced by the roads. The free pass
abuse in Ohio had reached immense
proportions, representing corre-
spending cost and loss to the roads.
Its abolition goes far to countervail the
cut in net earnings that would natur-
ally have been expected at least tenn
porarily. from the reduction of one
third in the fare.
Probably the most significant cir
cumstance which Is reliably reported
is the increasing satisfaction Of rail-
road officials themselves with their ex-
perience under the new law. which is
found to result also in relieving them
of a world of annoyance and work on
account of the opportunities of pass
seekers. all of which amounted to a
serious element of cost in railroad
management.

SECRETARY ROOTS CLIMAX.

The consummate skill with which
portant mission in South America came
to climax in the notable Buenos
Ayres banquet, presided over by Senior
Drago, former minister of foreign af-
fairs for the Argentine republic, whose
name is associated with statement
of the doctrine that debts, public and
private, are not a proper subject for
forcible collection by foreign govern
ments. Secretary Root, who for diplo-
matte reasons is not able formally to
commit our government at this time
to that doctrine to the extent in which
1t is favored by public sentiment in
South America, had adroitly reserved
for that appropriate time and place
the significant statement that the
United States had never employed and
never would employ its army and
navy for the collection of debts con-
tracted by governments or private in
dividuals."
Undoubtedly the trend of opinion,
following the line of interest in this
country is decidedly In the direction
of the Drago doctrine as applied to
both the American continents. We
have, in fact, stood absolutely for it
as applied TO ourselves from the mo-
ment we became a nation. and within
a century there has been no time we
should not have gone TO. war, for It..
1t lies, In fact. at the basis OF national
independence, and as conditions are
developing becomes logically corol-
larry of the Monroe doctrine. Numer-
Gus threats and actual use OF force by
European governments to collect debts
in Central and South American repub-
lies have naturally produced there a
feeling which is the more passionate
because their weakness has been taken
advantage Of Naturally and properly
the United States government is pro-
ceeding more cautiously In its state
ments and action, because upon 1t
would be devolved the duty of main
taining by force the Drago doctrine IL
it were explicitly proclaimed the same
as in the case of the Monroe doctrine.
And there are even yet some countries
in which complications might arise
through unsettled social conditions
that must in prudence on our part be
guarded against. So

KEEP THE RECORD STRAIGHT.

The democrats OF Nebraska, in spite of
lhe remonstrance OF q. M. Hitchcock, have
declared In favor OF the domination Of
ton, and have made good that declaration
by the nomination OF William H. Thomp-
son.-Omaha Bee.
@. M. Hitchcock IL on record in the World

In the convention as In favor OF nominating
senator by the convention. He ad-
vocated the referendum plan OF direct nom
ination as first choice. but always sup
ported the convention plan as better than
no action, and voted for 1t In committee

World Herald
While about 1t the record might as
well be kept straight all the way
through. In the first place, it is noto-
rious and susceptible of proof that
the alleged referendum plan advo-
Gated by Mr.. Hitchcock. to have the
names of senatorial aspirants put on
the ballot by petition did not originate
with Mr.. Hitchcock at all. Instead of
being Mr.. Hitchcock's plan, 1t is the
railroad plan and was proposed
through Senator Willard long before
Mr.. Hitchcock dreamed of 1t. The rail-
road politicians have figured that
by Its adoption they could get the cleo
ton of United States senator thrown
back to the legislature, where it could
be manipulated by the usual induce
ments to the advantage of the present
incumbent, who could not hope to Sc
cure an outright endorsement direct
from the people. AS part of their plan
the railroad wire pullers thought that
If they could get Hitchcock to procure
its acceptance by the democratic state
convention it would make 1t easier for
them to saddle it upon the repub-
lican convention. While the scheme
had It's inception in the railroad offices
and It's PRONUNCIATION through Senator
Millard and Mr.. Hitchcock, It's sole
purpose is to deprive the people of
any effective voice in the choice of
sene tor.
