Major General Leonard Wood has ev- identity studied the situation in the Philippines to some purpose. He reconl- mends that the United States establish permanent insular service, to the end that there may be an enduring person. mel, composed of men of experience, who are sufficiently sure of place and salary to be willing to remain In the service. He believes this can be done only by providing for retirement at the end of twenty-five years service on three .fourths of the pay received at the time of retirement, and for retirement before twenty-five years in case of dis ability, the compensation in such cases to be regulated by the pay of the bene- ficiary, his length Of service and the degree of disability, General Wood says that at present really first class men who go to the Philippines remain OLly SuOlb llliiSJ dllO bitCA Sp nO4llC or into business. He adds: Years are necessary for the men to become famil- far with the people they are associated with and gain their confidence. A few
 men of independent means may be found to fill the higher positions, but we cannot Ioolc to this class of VoI1n~ teers as life officials. The permanent insular service proposed should carry with it such a system of promotion as will, provided the qualifications of abil-
 ity and character exist, insure advance ment to higher positions. It is probable that the highest positions will frequent ly, and perhars always, be filled by di- rect appointments from the home coun- try, in order that these officials may be

4 NOTABLE coNCESSToN.

A sign of the times can be discerned in the remarks of John Dalzell of Pennsylvania, an obstructionist and stand-patter in the last Congress, who now says that, while personally he does not see any reason for revising the tariff" he does realize that there is a sentiment in some parts of the country favoring it," and Is ready to admit that this sentiment Is entitled to some consideration Consequently he is moved to say that i've should take up the subject immediately after the next President has taken his seat"
 This is a good deal for MT. Dalzell to say. It is a good deal for him to real ize that there is sentiment in some parts of the country favorlng tariff re- vision. It is perhaps even more for him to admit that this sentiment is en- titled to some consideration, How much he means to allow it, so far as he has the say, may be question, but fl may get more than now seems prob able.

It has been calculated that the cost of a muddy day in London Is some thing like $25O0O, This is not surpris- ing, says Tit-Bits, when one remem- bers that no fewer than thirty-two tons of mud are carried about from place to place on the wheels of carts and carriages and horses hoofs. After a wet day the dry mud brushed from peoples clothing amounts to fifteen tons, and very similar amount is shaken out of the door mats. City mud, however. has its good points. The sRloeblack increases his earnings in the muddy weather, and new silk hats and dresses and boots and shoes are each and all the direct outcome of its de- structive qualities.
