SEISMIC DANGER SPOTS.

In recent address before the American AS
ISOLATION for the Advancement of Science Pro
fessor g. h Gilbert, Of the United States Geo
logical Survey. considered the possibility Of
foreteIling earthquakes Among the resources
which in his Judgment may eventually help the
forecaster in such work is the tidal theory. He
is not however, yet prepared to say how I'M
portant factor it is likely 10 prove Professor
Gilbert also has a notion that there is certain
rhythm in the recurrence of seismic disturb
ances In one quarter OF the globe which he
mentioned there had been a dozen nota bic
shocks in a little more than century. While
an average of nine years was thus established,
the intervals between the shocks ranged from
one TO twenty-four years. Though the diversity
might be explained by assuming that there are
several rhythms superimposed one another,
the Washington geologist frankly remarked
that the rhythm theory is mot yet in working
order
A rather better guide seems TO be afforded
by the alienation of shocks between different
districts along a well defined fault. After
disturbance in one of these localities it is
sonable 10 expect, perhaps in a year or two,
disturbance in another. Something may
come. too, from a study of the preliminary
tremors which attend a shock. But while Pro
fessor Gilbert does not despair of practical de-
velopments from further investigation, he
earnestly deprecates the "anticipatoryi terror
which may be caused by an imperfect applica-
ton Of these principles.
Concerning the places in which earthquakes
will occur, Professor Gilbert thinks it feasible
to form a more accurate opinion than in re-
gard to the time when they may be expected.
Geology indicates where they may be antici-
pated with certainty. Since favorable con
ditions have long existed in Southern Italy and
elsewhere along the shores of the Medier-
ranean it would seem scarcely less than folly
not to make better provision there for the
future BY the adoption of improved methods
of construction it should be practicable to Sc
cure comparative immunity from harm. Inas-
much the completeness of the destruction in
Messina and several smaller cities makes it
necessary TO erect entirely new buildings, it
would be a pity not TO profit by experience.

THE LTEEW4RH SOUTH.

Our valued contemporary of Columbia, s. c.,
THE State" is amazed that The Tribune should
say that certain Southern states voted reluct-
antly against Taft and for Bryan at the last
election. This suggestion ''The State" nterprets
as IA charge against the Southern people,"
which it repels as absurd and false" The
Tribune had no intention of bringing charge"
when It expressed an opinion which seemed to
it we'll founded and which is widely accepted
even at the South. 1t only intended to compli-
ment the people of that section on realizing that
by Mr.. Tafts policies than by Mr. Bryan's al
though they felt compelled by loyalty TO a dying
tradition to seem TO prefer Mr.. Bryan's sue
cess
The expressions Of the Southern press and
the attitude of the Southern people since Mr..
Tafts election will hardly convince an impair
tial observer that the South viewed the result
Dental candidates defeat could well have been
taken more Ight-heartedly than Mr.. Bryan's
was by a section which gave him its almost
unanimous electoral vote. Were there tears
shed? Did despair and anguish CONFUSE the
Southern heart? We can recall but one great
mind cast down, one genial and optimistic tenn
permanent temporarily soured. The Hon Jo-
sephus Daniels, OF "The Raleigh News and OBJ
server" did turn his face TO the wall for a few
hours. he felt that our democratic system had
somehow broken down, and wanted TO reform,

understood the greatness OF Mr.. Bryan should

TIE RrscrE OF THE REPUBLIC.

The rescue of the passengers and crew of the
White Star steamship Republic Is q signal
triumph for the wireless telegraph. That 1nven-
ton has given man one more potent weapon III
his fight to control the forces of nature. In
bridging space. penetrating the pail of the fog
and patrolling the wastes of the ocean 1t has
greatly reduced the perils of travel by sea and
narrowed the opportunities for great sea dis
aSterS.
Under conditions prevailing up to a few years
ago the Republic would probably have been IN
able TO summon assistance in time. Struck IN
the dead of night and drifting helplessly IN
dense fog. the big liner might have fingered, as
she did for few hours, and then gone down
without getting into communication with the
shore or with any passing ship. Her passengers
and crew would have suffered fate only TOO
common in the history of the dangerous route
from Sandy Hook to Cape Race But the wire
less telegraph has happily transformed the con-
ditions of ocean travel. II a damaged vessel
happens to be near shore or near a generally
fra yelled ocean lane it can communicate It's
plight to many possible rescuers. To keep ahoat
for half day is TO make rescue fairly certain
Thus the Republics messages quickly reached
the shore stations from Newport to Portsmouth
and were caught by the Baltic, the Lucama anu
the Lorraine and concerted efforts could be MADE
to effect a rescue. Whatever part the Florida
may have played ID conAeclIou Win 'h0 "'oi
dent. it was mere chance that the passengers
could thus be transferred to vessel without the
wireless apparatus But if she had not been by
it is clear that the ships summoned from altar
would have arrived in time to effect rescue. me
complete success of these efforts will be hailed as
the sign of great deiverance from the terrors OF
the past by the thousands who travel the At
Iantic 1t will help TO eliminate dread only
too well founded in narrowing experiences ana
to increase mans confidence in his ultimate
ability TO overcome the destructive elements III
the world about him. On the fog laden sea-
where he long seemed so utterly helpless and
isolated. he has now the grateful assurance of
neighborly communication and assistance
The remarkable contrast between the happy
rescue of all the passengers and crew OF the
Republic and the fate of the ships company OF
the Bourgogne, in 1895. gives a striking measure
of progress in ten years.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL EXECUTIVE

Representative Mccall, Of Massachusetts, adj
dressing audience at Columbia University
suggested that the President Of the tnlted
States should be made little more than deco
ratiye fgurehead. and that the cabinet should
exercise the real executive power; and he
seemed, according TO report, TO think that the
chief objection to such an evolution would be
made by the newspapers, which. whatever their
real opinions. would prefer TO MAINTAIN the
possibility of producing sensational effects IN
criticising one man ra Their than group of men
1t seems to US that there is another somewhat
serious obstacle in the way of Mr.. McCalrs in
teresting proposal which is-with all due appre-
citation of newspaper fundamentally more to
be considered than that which he mentions.
That is the instrument known the Constitu-
ton of the United States. which in the most
direct and unequivocal manner prescribes that
the executive power shall be vested in
President of the United States of America
and which quite omits any mention of a Cabi-
net save In reference to 1.-The principal officer
in each Of the executive departments" which
officers 1t makes clear, are to be subject 10 the
Presidents authority.
OF course the nation may some time decide
10 recast its Constitution and to make ours,
as Mr.. Mccall suggests. a purely parlia mentary
government instead of q government of three
coordinate branches. But down to the pres
ent time we must doubt If it has been sutfi
GENTLY impressed with the danger of 1.-THE mer-
.'ciless tyranny of bureaus and OF some chance
"autocratic President with whom Providence
may possibly aflict us" to persuade it thus
10 transform It's whole system and TO confide
itself exclusively TO- the uncovenanted mercies
Of Congress. Mr.. McCall's vision of the spec
tacular rule of some future Castro Is Itself
sufficiently spectacular, but it is not convincing.

THE HARIEE ORDER.

The attempt of the House Naval Committee
backed nv Chairman Tawney Of the Appropria-
sions Committee, 10 aGnul the Presidents re
cent order regarding the use of marines aboard
the ships OF the navy WAS frustrated in the
House Of Representatives by timely point or
oreer The amendment TO tie naval appro-
pristicn hsIi offered by Mr.. Tawney was plainly
open TO the objection that it changed existing
law, since ii imposed the restriction that no
part Of the appropriation for the support of the
marine corps should be available unless Of
Ulcers and enlisted men shall serve hereto
Store on board all battleships and armored
scrusers, and also upon such other vessels as
1.-THE President NAV direct in detachments of
mot less than per cent of the strength of the
"enlssted men of the navy on said vessels.
This proposed legislation was open primarily
&c the criticism that il sought to limit in an I'M
wise and dangerous way the responsibility and
authority OF the President as commander In
chief OF the army and navy. II Congress were
TO assert the right TO determine for a year In
advance Just how the marine corps should be
distributed and used and were to make all
appropriations for the support OF the corps in
valid unless It were so distributed and used.
the legislative branch might as well undertake
to regulate the distribution Of the ships Of the

such discretion to the Executive has been con-
ceded IN ell previous legislation affecting the
marine corps, and the attempt to withdraw
