THE DECENTRALIZATION GROWS.

That the Democrats are completely
demorahzed as to who shall be their can
didate for the Presidency in 1908, and
upon what issues they will go before the
people, is becoming more evident each
day as that election approaches. When
we find such an ultra Democratic news
paper as the Charlottesville, Va, Pro-
gress, edited by man who was Dem
ocratic member of the late partisan
Constitutional Convention of this State,
seriously suggesting that the Democrats
nominate Mr.. Roosevelt as their candi-
date in 1908, we need look no farther for
the complete CONSERVATION that prevails
in the Democratic camp. This solemn
suggestion of the Progress has shocked
the sensitive nerves of such Democratic
papers as the Richmond News Leader,
the Lynchburg News and the Norfolk
Virginian-Pilot. They ridicule the idea
of Roosevelt being the candidate of
their party, both from principle and pol
icy. They are partly right and partly
wrong. Of course Mr.. Roosevelt can
never be the candidate Of the Demo
cratic party, because he is a Republican
from principle and the modern Democ-
racy have no fixed principles. He might,
if willing, become policy candidate of
the Democratic party, for that is the
only kind that party has had in these
latter days.

Amoassadorial Salaries.
Macon Daily Telegranbl

The London Standard says in a pecun-
larry sense Mr.. Bryce. the new English
ambassador 20 Washington, will be
worse off, instead of better. by becom-
ing ambassador to the United States.
his salary as chief secretary was the
curious sum of ga. 425. In Washington
he will receive SIS a year. but it is
generally accepted as a fact that it is
impossible for an ambassador to save on
his pay, large though the amount may
seem" This is equal to something like
$S5. 600.
The plum of England's diplomatic ser
vice, the Standard says, is the Paris en-
bassy. which is now occupied by Sir
Francis BERTHE. 1t carries with it a
salary of $4,000. 'sSir w. E. Goschen
in Vienna, ard Sir Frank Lascelles in
Berlin, draw $4,000 apiece, while Sir
Arthur Nicholson's salary in st. Peters
burg is the same as Mr.. Bryce's."
Turning to the United States the
Standard says this government re-
munerates the members of its diplo-
matte corps on a singularly modest
scale. Mr.. Whitelaw Reid, the Ameri-
can ambassador in London, for instance.
receives only sS,5 a year, out of
which he is understood to pay 81, 900 a
year for Dorchester house, Parklane,
which he has taken furnished on a lease
from Capt. Holford.''
In view of the fact that the first posts
IN the American diplomatic service are
held as a rule by gentlemen who have
made or inherited fortunes and who
have social aspirations to crafty it may
be just as well to let them bear in some
measure the expense of their magnif-
cent establishments.

Mr.. Schwab's School Of Steel Instruc-
tiOn
baltimore SUM

1t is reported that Charles w. Schwab.
head of the Bethlehem Steel Com
pany, has under consideration plan for
the development of the steel industry in
the United States along lines which are
not only interesting, but unique. so far
as this country is concerned. Mr.. Schwab
propose to take leaf out of Kaiser
Wilhelm S book. In having steel work,
1t appears, the United States is without
a rival, but in the manufacture of finer
articles Germany is far in the lead. This
superiority is due to the technical
schools in which Germany excels and to
the activity of the Emperor in promot-
ing technical training. Mr.. Schwab's
plan contemplates practical and techni-
cal training at the Bethlehem Steel
Works. He is a close student as well
as a sincere admirer of German meth
DDS, and he hopes to improve upon these
methods. Three thousand apprentices,
boys and youths, are to be taken into
the Bethlehem works. A great techni-
cal school will be established in connec-
ton with the plant. Thus the appren
tees will have the benefit of both the
DRY and practice-of school and factory.
Mr.. Schwab will turn out finished ar
lists if his plan succeeds. There will
be no weak spots in the armor of our
steelworkers when Mr.. Schwab's an
prentices graduate. Nothing in the
industrial development of the United
States IS more wonderful than the
growth of our steel industry. Yet much
to, be accomplished, according
to the practical men at the head of the
steel plants. If Mr.. Schwab succeeds
with his plan, the steelworkers of the
United States will, in good season, make
the finest and most delicate grades of
tools for the arts and sciences and all
industries, as well as the tools which are
used In the vast steel establishments.
Mr.. Schwab worked his way up to the
top of the ladder by ability and energy.
From mill worker to a magnate of
steel and financier his evolution has
been on natural lines, in keeping with
the rise of other magnates, from OBJ
security to riches and prominence.
Whether his plan is practicable or not,
1t is inspired by worthy motive-to
make American steelworkers the equals
in efficiency and technical knowledge of
the steelmakers of the world. The
Kaiser should keep his eye on Mr..
Schwab.

The French Church Compromise
(Philadelphia Press.N


The decisive majority of $50 to SO bv
which the French Chamber has approx
ed the compromise over the Roman
Catholic churches bespeaks the salts
faction of both sides with the result.
The French mass vote was determin-
ed that the organization of the parishes
should be local. The Church authori-
ties were equally determined that the
Church should be represented bv the
bishops and neither by the laitv nor bv
the parish clergy.
Both secure a part of what thew
sought, but the Church has won the
more substantial victory. The bishops
are not IN direct control. They do not.
as IS true of the same communion in
this country, in many States personally
own and control Church property: but
the bishops name the local priest, who
makes the contract with the local au
thorities. The Vatican has won its
main contention, that the bishops must
be IN ultimate control Of the church ed

The French public gains, on the other
hand, in the active control of the
churches by the parish clergy. Thew

The Church in France is now, for the
hrst time, to be supported by the Iaity.
The influence of this will not be felt AFT

influence the Church.

Mr.. CLEVELAND BEGINS TO SEE.

On tire s1l''l i.--+ President Grover
Cleveland made a notable address be-
fore the Union League Club of Chicago.
Of course his theme was THE Father
of His Country" as the meeting was
held in memory of Washington's birth
day. The press report says:
He dwelt less upon the history and
achievements of Washington than upon
the soundness of Washington's economic
wisdom. The prosperity and glory of
the country were, according to the
speaker, unbounded and imperishable if
the precepts of Washington are actively
recalled, and in general closely follow
ed:
THE Republic still has, he said, i'm
perative need of Washington, and his
example and teachings are as important
to the present generation, as his labors
and guidance were necessary in his own
time"
What will the Democrats of
the Jeffersonian school think of these
remarks of Grover Cleveland? General
Washington and Mr.. Jefferson held en-
tirely different views nall ecnomicque
tions. Washington being a Federalist
and associate of Hamilton, Marshall and
the other great men who were not
strict constructionists" of the Federal
Constitution, as was Mr.. jefferson.

1t is astonishing how quickly business
recuperated in San Francisco. The
chamber of commerce has complied
cetain statistics showing that the bank
clearlngs in August were larger than
they We're in January, and not much
less than they were in March, while in
october they were much larger than in
any previous month of the year. and
the total clearings for ten months were
nearly $50, 900. 900 greater in 1906 than
IN 1905. The sales of real estate in the
FIRST half of 1906 exceeded any previous
halt-year. Of course, most of them
occurred before the earthquake. but
the October sales amounted to nearly
three million dollars. The exports of
domestic merchandise by sea were
nearly as large in September as in
March. Both the imports and the total
exports by sea ware greater in Septem-
Der than in any previous month of 1906.
The city has shown splendid courage
and recuperative capacity.

Mr.. Bryan has thrown a bomb into
the Democratic camp by coming out as
an advocate of the regulation of child
labor in the States by Federal laws. The
Democratic newspapers have been very
busy asserting that such an effort on
the part of the Federal Government
would be in violation of the Constitution
of the United States. We find the pros
pective candidate of the Democratic
party for 1908 is one of the pronounced
friends of what his party has heretofore
termed offensive paternalism on the
part of the General Government.
