game.
Thomas w. Lawson of Boston may not
be as sincere and genuine reformer as he
claims to be. and his self-assumed work
of breaking the system may be merely
a part of a selfish propaganda Of stock
manipulation. But he has nevertheless told
a profound truth which should be seriously
considered by the public at large in con-
templating the Wall street problem Law
son declares that there will always be dan
ger from the Wan street influence as long
as men are permitted to sell stocks that
they do not own. In other words. he holds
chiefly responsible for the wide fluctuations
of the market. the spasmodic and unrea-
sonable plunges of the price list. the stock
gamblers who are doing no less than bet
ting with another group of stock gamblers
that certain prices will fall instead Of rise.
But what Is to be done about 1t? II the
country can keep It's head level and. fol-
lowing Mr. Carnegie's advice refrain from
indulgence in stock gambling and ignore the
market quotations it can afford as far as
its industrial health is concerned. to let the
bulls and the bears fight each other. But
unfortunately In time the gyrations of the
stock market. whether based upon actual
industrial conditions or upon speculative
factors do have an effect upon public con-
fidence. which in turn Is at the base of
prosperity. Is the evil growing so great
as to call for a remedy in law. to prevent
the unwholesome manipulation of the stock
market by stock gamblers?

America and the Cardinalate.

Again the ruInor that America is TO have
idtional representation in the College of
Cardinals. This comes from Rome on an
average of twice a year. 1t is always read
with interest, though never with credit. So
many disappointments have put people on
their guard. They have come to put gossip
from the Holy city on that subject on a
par with general gossip They will believe
in the new red hat when they see it.
The argument does not differ from year to
year. unless 1t may be said to grow in per-
suasiveness from the American point Of
view. In America the Catholic Church is
strong both in numbers and in organization.
1t has wealth. too. and able leadership.
1t has advanced more signally in influence
under our free flag than in any other
quarter of the globe. In its one cardinal it
has a man who enjoys the respect of all
communions, and is honor to his own.
In Archbishop Ireland it has an orator and
a writer of International fame. and in Arch
bishop Ryan an orator of a large American
influence. Its orders are large, and thrifty
And yet but one prince of the church re-
sides in this country.
One additional cardinal would satisfy
Catholic sentiment, though two, as the
phrase is, would please it better. This
times. and in a variety of ways. but
so far to no purpose. Leo XIII took
the matter under advisement, but man
aged automatically never to decide 1t.
AT that time there something of
what passed by the name of rivalry
between the admirers of Archbishop
Ireland and those of Archbishop Corrigan,
and the solution suggested was that both
prelates be decorated. When the New
York prelate died the name of Archbishop
Ryan was substituted. and lately that of
Archbishop Quigley of Chicago has ap-
peared in the speculation. The latter prel-
ate is now in Rome.
Plus X has halted, as did his prede-
cessor. and probably for the same reason
There is no official announcement, but it is
stated in well-informed quarters in Rome
that the question is not viewed at the
Vatican as here Wealth, numbers, organi-
cation. industry and able leadership in the
church in America are confessed and ap
preciated. but other considerations. we are
told. enter into the matter. Just what they
are is not described nor how long they
are likely to influence the situation pre-
dicted. But the American Catholics are
to be congratulated on the fact that the
one place allowed them is filed to their
satisfaction. and so to insure them a
warm reception when they visit Rome.

The Black Hand on the Platform.

The women of Atlanta, Ga, are vigorous
ly protesting against the Doliteness of the
street car conductors of that city. They
say these public-service functionaries are
altogether too gallant in the matter of as
ssting them to enter and leave the cars.
They do not object to the attentions of the
conductors. but they think it is easier to
get on and off the cars alone than to have
their shirt waists constantly in the laun-
dry to eradicate the marks of the grimy
hands of toll. There is no disputing the
fact tha- conducting a street is bust
ness for a man who wants to keep his
hands clean. What with holding on to
brass ratings, pulling leather straps, push
ing through crowds of the great unwashed
and handling money in all degrees of un-
cleanliness. a Woodworking conductors
hands in the course of an hour of service
are not exactly in a state of ballroom pu-
rity The conductors willingly admit that
their hands are not suited to the require
ments of a high plane of galantry, but
they urge that if they do not offer help
ing hand to the women they are regarded
as derelct in their duties. They are will
ing say some of them, to hold the car
each time while they put on white gloves
but the company demurs to this PROPOSE
ton. Thus the case stands. Possibly the
problem will be solved by the women adopt
ing warning signs to wear upon their
sleeves, Hands OF" or use Gloves"
Then any conductor who ventures to be
polite runs the risk of discipline. Maybe
the car companies can help little in this
matter by having their vehicles con-
structed that women passengers get on
and off without assistance and without
qualifying as acrobats

Localizing the Ohio Fight.

TIT, republican leaders are likely to exert
themselves to keep the Taft-Foraker con-
test within the bounds now set. Come

mended by philosophers. In the oft-quoted
Language of Mr.. Cleveland. it is a condition
and not theory that now confrontS the
republicans. and they must read their duty
by what is, rather than by what they would
have. before them. Judge Taft and Mr..
Foraker. with hands up. confront each
other. and their friends should keep the
ring and insist upon fair play.
In the end, as The Star observed on We'd
nesday. the result is bound to tell else
where. The situation in other states will
necessarily be affected A Taft victory

ing violet

Somewhere the Weakening violet
Awaits the suns caress;
Somewhere the daffodil is set
In joyous loneliness.
But what care 1 for all these things
Who early ventured out
To hear the vernal carolngs
OF song birds hereabout?
For perfumes vainly l repine
When soft the zephyr blows;
They're holding hot drinks and quinine
Meath my contemptuous nose.
l may not tread with bliss complete
The broidered sylvan path,
Because my all too careless feet
Are in a mustard bath.

The Railroad Situation.
From the Brooklyn Eagle.

American financiers who are in Europe
and European financiers who are now in
America, if-cable communication is to be
trusted are devoting attention to what is
termed by them the railroad situation in
America. In their minds the situation is
grave because investors show a reluctance
to nut their money in railroad securities.
ulogically they are disposed to attribute
that reluctance to the agitation by the fed
eral government of the question of the
proper regulation of railroad corporations.
Instead of assembling it to the revelations of
the unlawful and sinful methods employed
by some controlling fnanciers which cast
a doubt over all securities.

ners or of action out of business. So 1t
may be said Of politics that hullabaioo has
taken the place of discussion and reflec-
ton. Voters are appealed to largely on
their sensational side. Spellbinding mas
become a roar and a rant. and is supported
by all sorts of devices for simply amusing
the electorate.
All Of this might be, and should be, cut
out. 1t Is at once expensive and demoraliz-
ing. Candidates are heavily assessed and
their admirers drawn upon to support
horde of jimcrack entertainers who make
business of politics for their own personal
ends. Many OF them are the most worth
less drones on top of ground.
But revolutions do not go backward
this sort of thing does not go backward.
1t must exhaust itself: and the question
relates to how much longer the public taste
will support it, While the demand lasts
the campaign managers will meet 1t at
whatever cost. And. in some way. money to
pay the bills will be collected: Raising
the wind Is one of the tests the managers
must meet. and after passing. the examina-

are not of the stuff to fail in action.

discussion of it interesting. but little more

Chicago Police Blackmail.

From the Chicago Evening Post.
1t is safe to say that no police force in
the country ever was sunk so deep in the
quagmire of political corruption are the
bluecoats who theoretically guard the lives
and property of Chicago citizens. The one
most striking instance of how far Collins
men will venture in their political black
mail is that of the Strauss brothers. whose
hotel is in a state of siege because the pro-
prietors refused to pay 800 tribute to
the Dunno campaign fund. Russia Itself
could offer no example of greater and more
braZen official corruption.
