Monthly or yearly rates Of payment OF
teachers that seemed ample fifteen 1r

public schools. and ii also applies 10
higher institutions, where the salaries of

Mr. Lodge has NOT made hi. case any
stronger 10y his remarkable exposition
of the origin of military law Under the
customs prevailing generally at the time
OF the Revolution, he said the power of
the King or OF the commander-in-chief
acting. under his orders was absolute.
and he could dismiss or punish without
any restriction except such as he himself
chose to establish" The trainers of the
Constitution. knowing this when they
provided that the President should be

power upon him. Apart from any refer
ence TO that other section Of the C0nstitu-
rion which confers on Congress the
power "to make rules for the govern

argument has q startling interest It
suggests the view attributed % the early
FederaHsts. but generally repudiated by
their defenders, that the royal pTeroga-

other instance in which Mr.. Roosevelt

Hill Points the WAY.

James J. Hill has shed "a food of light
on the railroad situation in letter to
Gov. johnson, OF Minnesota. The great
railroad magnate shows by facts and fig
ures that what is hurting the commerce
of the country II present is lack OF
trackage and equipment of the railroads.
Edward H. Hartman some time ago de-
clared that there was now enough mile
age, and that if any more iron highways
were built it would be difficult to borrow
money on railroad securities
Hin is q practical railroad man-the
greatest of his time. Hartman Is a
railroad speeulator-the greatest the
world has ever known; and let as hope
there will never be another like him. His
use for railroads is for speculative pur-
poses only. He would combine them all
under one system in order to Kill compe-
tition, and thereby be the better enabled
TO apply, unchecked, that ruthless rule
of railroad managemc charge all the
traffic viii bear"
From Mr. HIS view point there is very
little hope of bettermeHt OF present
conditions. The Improvement will nee
essarily De very slow. IN his philosophy
the problem is threef0ld- financial, me-
chauical. and physical. TO increase
uaclzlge and equip it at the rate de
m3nded would require the expenditure of
more than billion dollars "a year for ii
period of five years. In prosecuting this
enterprise Mr. Hill would Dee baked at

The statistics presented by Mr.. Hin are

Depravity Of a Naval cnnrt

What is the matter with tie naval

more such instances as those cited from

for legislation which would give him the
right to dismiss naval officers without
