MORE PAY FOR SOLDIERS.

The senate on Friday passed a bill
providing for a flat increase of forty
per cent in the average pay of en-
listed men in the army. five per cent
for general officers and twenty per
cent for junior officers. This will in
crease the cost of maintaining the pres
ent establishment by some millions of
ably certain that the act will meet
the approval of the public. The bill
must now go to the house for action,
and if Speaker Cannon regards it fav-
orably. it will become law.
While The Herald has never cared
a great deal about increasing the pay
of the officers of the army. it has been
interested in increasing the pay of the
men. and it has no objection to the
increase for the officers. The latter
are. however. plenty able to take care
of themselves They have been COM
planning bitterly for years about their
inability to pay expenses on the sti-
pend allotted TO them by the govern
nieul, Dul II never seemed 10 occur

problem was to curtail their expendi-
lures. just as people in civilian life

A raise in the pay of the enlisted
men has become vital necessity if
We are TO have any regular army at
all. Everybody who is familiar with
the situation knows that the ranks of
the regulars have become depleted to
such point that in many cases there
are not enough men in a brigade to
fill a single regiment on a proper
basis. Among the reasons assigned for
this condition is the poor pay of the
enlisted men. No doubt there is some
thing in the contention. Any man ca
pable OF making good soldier is
capable Of earning very much more
money, in ordinarily good times, out

mined in advance by the eastern and
southern Democrats.
Al a time when there is so much
good material available there should
be more rivalry in the conventions. if
only to secure an expression from every
section and every class of the cleo
torate. Just as it is bad for the ma
ton to have a minority party too weak
istrative action. so it is bad for any
party to be dominated entirely by the
personality OF. one man, or small CO.
terie of men. If the candidacy of Gov
.ernore Johnson could be followed by the
entrance on the field of men like George
Gray of Delaware and Douglas of Mas
sachusetts and Folk of Missouri, it
would be greatly to the advantage OF
the Democratic party.
Mr.. Bryan is the recognized leader
of the party, but no one man is big
enough TO be given sole control of the
partys fate, nor have his followers
right to assume, as they did in Min
nesota, that support of another candi-
date is betrayal of the Democracy. If
Democracy means anything. it means
that every individual member of the
party has a right to record his con-
victions and support his own candi-
dates without coercion. A national
convention should be a free field to all
Corners.

THE oRMoNDE RACES.

The fast-flying automobilists are
smashing some records at. Ormonde
beach, Florida. Friday a chauffeur
drove his car 100 miles in two sec
onds less than % minutes This is at
the rate of a mile in 43.S seconds
throughout the distance. In order to
make that rate of speed, the chauf-
feur had to cover a little more than
125 feet per second. In five seconds he
would cover one of our long city
blocks. and he would go from the Tenn
pie corner to Fort Douglas in ap-
proximately three minutes. Which is
certainly going some" to use the Ian
guage of the street.
If there is any place in the country
where automobile racing for long dis
tances is permissible and valuable, that
place is Ormonde beach. Although one
or two men have been killed in the
speed events there, notably young
Frank Croker few years ago, the
course is exceptionally safe Also, it
is very fast. The policing of the course
is admirable, and there is practically
no danger TO the innocent bystander.
The races this year are interesting.
not so much from the standpoint of
speed as from the showing of in
creased dependability There have been
fewer breakdowns of important parts
of the machinery, fewer tire troubles.
fewer disablements of every kind than
ever before. This is an indication that
the automobiles are being more scien-
tifically constructed. The next thing
will be to bring the cost of a car, not
a racer, but a comfortable car for the
use of family, down TO a price with
in the reach of people of moderate
means.

A DARK LANTERN AUDIT.

Judging by results. the special au
ditors employed at an exorbitant price
By the city administration find their
chief occupation in suppressing facts
as to the real condition of the city
treasury. In a little less than a year,
these special auditors drew from the
city treasury SIS. 800 for work which
should have cost not more than $1,000
at the outside, work which any high
class certified accountant would glad
ly have done for $4,000, and less. The
$4,000 beauties have rendered no bill
for services since January 10. though
still at work, apparently fearing they
will be cut off i'll the midst of their
delectable job of relieving the treas
ury of cash.
Any first-class accountant ought to
be able to tell within half an hour
exactly the city's status financially:
what it has in bank available for ex-
penses; what it owes and for what
purpose; what its income, actual and
prospective, is. In other words, the
books should show daily what the
city owes and what it has to pay its
debts with. 1t has been more than
six weeks since the city treasurer's re-
port of December 81 was placed in
the mayors hands. 1t has been more
than two months since that report
should have been in the hands of the
public. 1t has been much longer since
aFa Of he
city's financial condition has been pub
lished. Isn't it about time the tax
payers were told something about their
own city business? Or does the
American" administration think the
taxpayers only business is to pay up
when tax collection times comes
around, without asking foolish ques-
tiOns as TO what the trustees of pub
lie money have done with it?
As for these special auditors. their
diem paid them is an imposition on
the public, d reflection on the admin
istration, an extravagant misuse of
trust funds for which there can be
no adequate reason. When an audit
of city affairs was proposed, The Her.
aid supported the proposal as a good
business move, but it had no notion
that the audit was to be made the
pretense for paying SO a day to men
who employ SIS a month men to do
the work; nor had it any idea that
an audit" was to be made the pre-
text for a petty graft in special sta
tionery systems" and endless devices
for milking the treasury without full
value in return.

TO PENALIzE NoN-VoTERs.

Governor Fort of New Jersey, in a
recent message to the legislature of
that state, suggested the enactment of
statute penalizing qualified voters
for failure to exercise the right of
suffrage. Commenting on this, an
eastern contemporary says:
1T is impossible, however, TO make
anything practical out of these COM
pulsory voting propositions. There is
far too great a range for the rational
exercise of individual discretion and
judgment. A voter may stay away
from the polls not because he is in
attentive to his duties. but because he
is dissatisfied with the candidates for
whom he has an opportunity to vote.
Assuming that there are two, he may
believe that they are both unfit on
personal grounds. Or neither of them
may represent the political ideas in
which he has faith. In either case he
viii not choose between them, be-
cause. as he would put it. there is
nothing to choose.
such accounts are common. They are
often effective with independent vot-
ers, who see little in some elections
but the maneuvering of worthless Of
fice-seekers, who use party names to
confuse and betray the people. Then
there are times when sincere party
workers are so Disguised by the actions
of conventions of their own party that
they feel themselves disfranchised.
They will not support the unaccepta-
bic nominee that has been forced upon
them, and party loyalty prevents them
from turning to the opposition"
This is an easily answered argument.
On every voting machine and on every
ballot blank spaces are provided. so
that the voter who is dissatisfied with
the regularly or irregularly named cam
didate for office can write i'm the
names of the men he prefers. 1t is
true that there is hardly an instance
on record in which voting of this char
acter has done any practical good. That
is. the candidates so voted for have
rarely or never been elected.
But the vote is effective as a form
of protest, and every citizen is free
to exercise it as he sees fit. The plea
that none of the candidates selected by
the various parties is acceptable is not
a sound one. 1t is not a valid ex-
cuse for failure to vote. The Herald
does not ask all voters to vote for one
set or another of the names on the
official ballot. 1t does believe that ev-
cry citizen should vote for somebody
in every election. We believe the man
who fails to vote els not a good cit
izen.
In at least one European country
Austria, penalty for not voting is pro-
vided. The result has been entirely
satisfactory. The law has worked we'll
If people were penalized for failure to
vote, party election expenses would be
reduced to a minimum, and We would
have the unusual spectacle of seeing
the offices won by the most popular
candidates. rather than by the candi-
dates of the party having the largest
campaign fund.

THE Indictment of former Governor
Foster M. Voorhees, Of this State, now
president of the State Potable water
commission, seems to show the danger
of officers of tiduciary institutions
signing and swearing to statements
prepared by subordinates. For short
time the Ex-Governor was nominal
president of the Bankers Life InSur-
ance Company of New York. The
company had been in trouble, from
previous mismanagement A request
was made by Superintendent Kelsey,
(who is himself under cloud for a
certain statement which was prepared
by the clerks and under officers of the
institution, and presented to Presi-
dent VOORHEES, with the guarantee
that it was correct. On the strength
of this Mr.. VOORHEES, swore to the
statement, but it is now alleged that
it was not true, and for this the for
mer Governor has been indicted for
perjury. No one would believe for a
moment that Mr.. voorhees, would will
fully have sworn to false statement,
but as it was impossible for him to veri-
fly the details, he took the word of his
subordinates, as is done by the chief
officers of nearly all large institu-
tiOns every week Of the year.
