Why the Swedes Emiqrate.
New York Tines

Poor old King Oscar is starting a stat
istical inquiry to ascertain why it is that
so many of his ieges of the one king
dom that is left to him in his old age
emigrate to America. The purpose of
the investigation is to induce them to
return to Sweden.
Some of the ''by-products" of the in
vestigation may be interesting and even
useful But the inquiry is evidently
superhuous and the ultimate object un-
attainable. Swedes come here. as 9TH
er immigrants come, in order to better
themselves. They stay here because
they have succeeded in lettering them
selves. The attractions of the United
States to Industrious Swedes in the vi
gor of life overbalance any advantages
they enjoy at home. And we find them
among the best and most useful of citi-
zens. They are very welcome. and a
short experience of American life dis
affects them more and more from the
social conditions of their native land
which is as essentially aristocratic as
It's neighbor Norway is essentially dem
ocratic.
A large portion of the Swedes who
come here find themselves within a few
years able to return to Sweden for
pleasure trips. Possibly many of them.
when they have done their work and
amassed competency, may return to
Sweden to end their days. 1t would be
surprising If they did not. For, besides
their sentimental attachment to their
birthplace, a krona will go as far in
Sweden as a dollar in this country.
There they can be ''prodigal within the
circumference of a guinea" ONLY a
krona is not 30 easily come by in Sweden
as dollar in this country. The hope of
winning back to Sweden any considera-
bic proportion of the Swedish emigrants
to America while they are vigorous and
active members of the community is il
lusory and the attempt foredoomed to
failure.

The "RecalI" In Korea.
(Portlsnd Oreoon;arN

Korea, 1t seems, has in its constitn-
ton a curious application of the politi-
cal device which our reformers some
tunes advocate under the same recall. :"
1t compels an unfaithful public servant
TO give up his Office with small cere-
mony, no matter whether his term has
expired or not.
We sometimes speak of the recall
as radical novelty. But, like most of
our so-called novelties, it turns out to
be very old. There is nothing new I'M
der the sun. In applying it to officials
we should naturally begin at the bot
tom. We would wish to see how it
worked with mayors and county school
superintendent before trying it on the
President.
But Orientals generally do things
backwards, according tc our ideas. The
Koreans apply the recall to their
KING and to no other public servant.
when the kings conduct endangers the
public safety he must abdicate. Such a
rule would have been a great advantage
to France in the case of Louis Napol-
con, or to Russia with the present ruler.
The Korean law is of immediate in
terest because it is held that the king
by sending telegram to The Hague
Conference endangered the public safe
ty. Thus the Japanese demand for his
abdication is perfectly legal and regu-
lar. Was there ever a wrong which
could be justified by law? Still, we do
not wish to say that the Japanese are
doing wrong in the case. Korea has
been asleep for a long time without
rough shaking. Quite likely Japan's
rude handling of her dependent neigh
Dor is true kindness, though to Western
eyes the kindness seems to be skilfully
disguised.

SAVED SHIP FROM TINE SEA.
Story Of the Bark That Broke a

"A story of heroism of the sea. rival

OF an intrepid sea captain who resur-

condition that she has broken all records
for sailing craft around the Horn
The sea captain lived at San DIEGO
until year or two ago, having retired
on modest income. His name is Thav-
er- One day he read in the papers of
an auction sale of the hulk of a shin in
the South Seas. He went to San Fran
cisco, where he found that the ship had
been valued at $3.50, 900 and had been
grounded in a storm, deserted by the
crew and supposedly pounded into a
shapeless mass upon the rocks. But he
thought he would take chance, and so
bid her in for 81. 100, getting lawyer in

three-masted bark. Captain Thayer

Is right about it being best TO have the
judges chosen by the Legislature in
stead of being elected by the people.
But we recall the time when it was a
cardinal doctrine of the Virginia De-
mocracy that all the officers, State and
county, including the judges, should be
elected by the people. We remember
well some of the splendid men who were
elected judges in this section of Vir-
glnia, Geo. w. Hopkins, Samuel v.
Fulkerson. John A. Campbell and John
W. Johnston. 1t may be treason. but
we declare with all earnestness that
very few of the judges chosen by the
Legislature measure up to these judges
elected by the people.
The Virginia Democracy has found
that it can only rule by sitting the
voice of the people, and hence its posi-
ton that it will not do to trust the PEG
pie in the selection of judiciary.
The News Leader is greatly mistaken
if it thinks that personal and political
popularity are not essential requisites
to being made judge in Virginia.
While personal popularity is a great es-
sential political popularity is a greater
one. The judges are selected by the
most partisan legislative bodies that
ever assembled in this or any other
State; and the applicant must not only
have the right political brand upon him.
but ne must speak the language of the
tribe, if he speaks at all. We know of
recent instance in which a Judge in
this section of the State had to publicly
recant certain political heresie before
he could be reelected to his position.

NO PRIMARY FOR JUDGES.

With sincere regret we observe that
It has been decided to name the CORPORA
ton judge of the city of Norfolk by a
primary election, the decision of the
majority of voters to be taken as bind
ing instruction on the Legislature.
This newspaper has been and is a con-
sistent friend of the primary system
but that system should halt at the
bench.
When we make the judiciary depen-
dent on personal or political popularity
we weaken it and add to the tempta-
lions which assail it naturally. Judges
being but men. The further we can
keep 1t away from the accidents and ex-
igencies of active politics the better.
We sincerely hope that some fit man
will refuse to go into the primary, an
nouncing in advance his opposition to
the principle of choice of judges by pop
ular election and come before the Leg
islature on his merits. The policy of
virginia has been to seouester the
judges as ia" as possible from outside
influence and considerations. 1t is a
wise policy and should be continued.
In most cases our judges now are
chosen for life, virtually because tradi
ton and custom forbid the defeat of a
Judge so long as he performs his duties
faithfully and assure his reelection
continually. 1t would be better, how
ever, if it was written in the law that
the judge be elected for life or good be-
navior so that there would be no posi-
oility of judge seeking by his decis-
ons to strengthen himself with the
public or with politicians in power.

schooner and sank in eleven minutes.
Or the one hundred and ninety passen-
gers more than one hundred were saved.
although there was desperately little
time to get them from their staterooms
and from the steerage before the ship
was engulfed.
Doran stayed on the bridge and di-
rected the work of his crew, which.
judging by its results in the saving of
lives, must have been marvellously eff
ficient- He appears to have had never
thought for himself, never a shadow
OF a doubt that his duty was to go down
with his vessel.
When all was done that could be done.
when the panic-stricken passengers had
been helped aboard the steamer schoon-
er or loaded on the life-rafts, this stout
hearted sailor shouted "God bless womb
to those who were saved, and calmly
gripped the rail of his bridge as it was
swallowed up in the ocean.
Doran had been skipper of the Colum-
bia for ten years or whereabouts, and
had never had a serious accident. From
