The Portuguese Republic.

The Portuguese revolution has made
swift progress. Already a provisional
government has been formed under a re-
publican style of organization. a new ma
tional nag has been adopted and flies
over the public buildings of the capital
and. most striking feature of the entire
situation. the minister from Spain has
ofiicialiy extended recognition to the new
republic by calling upon the leaders at
their headquarters. For good or for Ill.
for a short time or for Il long period,
Portugal has passed from the rule of
kings TO the rule OF the people.
The new President OF Portugal Is de-
scrtbed In the dispatches - . poet and

the Portuguese. That the situation de-
mands a practical economist at the head
of affairs is plain enough from the recent
history of the country. which has been
brought to the verge of bankruptcy by
royal eXtravasances committed by tine

But whether a poet, however expressive
OF the Portuguese sentiment. can effec-
tuaily organize an administration suited

The Hindoo Invasion.
From the San Francisco Chronicle.

Hindoos have been coming into this port
at the rate OF about 300 year. with
indications of a rapid and indefinite in
crease. This invasion is doubtless the re-
suit of systematic stimulation by steam
ship companies, and the inflow of the
coolies Is increasing so rapidly as to ex-
cite real alarm. There is no law under
which these undesira bles can be turned
back il they are free from disease and
not likely to become public charges. All
these immigrants seem to be provided
with cash sufficient to keep them alive
for a few weeks. which is all that the
law requires of healthy man. While
by no means a sturdy looking lot, nearly
all the Hindoos have passed the medical
examination, as In spite OF their appear
ance no infectious or contagious disease
could be detected. The discovery of DIR.
Glover that sixty-five per cent Of small
number Of Hindoos under observation
were aflicted with the hookworm dis
ease seems to open the way to check this
immigration. If anything like that ratio
of sufferers is found to exist in future i'm
portations. the steamship companies will
themselves put an end to the traffic, as
they are obliged to return at their own
expense all aliens who are denied admis-
sion.

The evidence laid before the interstate

Chicago and New York city. to justify
rate advances by the railroads has thus
far been surprisingly unconvincing and
weak. 1t would seem almost as though
the attorneys for the railroads had them
selves become hopelessly entangIed in the
mass of data furnished which has been
under fire OF the shippers attorneys every
day since the hearings began. The coun-
sci for the roads have seemed confused
and on the defensive from the very start
The fact has been clearly brought out by
the shippers that trust products escape
the increases altogether. while the classes
OF goods shipped by the independent mer-
chants have been taxed a round increase.
Every statement has had to be explained
over and over again to no purpose. Then,
too. the figures furnished have in no par
ucular shown justification for the In
efeases. 1t has not been proved that the
wage increase granted some time ago will
continue at such totals as alleged by the
several roads whose evidence has been
submitted. 1t is an open secret that the
railroads are pruning expenses. wherever
possible.

Organism. Populism and Socialism.

Gen Coxey. who commanded the army
Of discomfort that moved on Washing
ton from Ohio sixteen years ago for the
purpose of impressing Congress with the
real needs of the people. wants an ac-
counting. His present cry is. Honor to
whom honor is due and he says a few
things in support of it.
Why this talk about "Bryanizing the
republican party? Why put the case in
that way? Why give to Mr.. Bryan credit
not rightfully his? He originated nothing
that stands in his name. but ed
everything. Before him were the popu-
lists with a platform which. though de-
rided in its day, has since received the
homage of adoption by him almost in its
entirety.
What, then, is Organism but populism
Why not speak of populizing the republi-
can party? Go back to the beginning and
give the matter its proper name? Mr..
Bryan. by borrowing. simply populized
the democracy, and the republicans are
falling in line little later
Such is the Coxey view. But the Ques-
ton does not end there. The socialists
claim that populism in its real tenor was
but a crude lead toward socialism. Its
advocates did not know the source of
their suggestions. They were trying to
throw off burdens without appreciatiag
the logic of their propaganda. They did
not see where 1t logically led. Before
populism was socialism, but little under
stood until recently, but now under full
and free discussion, and coming to play a
part under it's own colors in both state
and national politics.
The origin. growth and application Of
things may be profitably studied at any
time. Especially is this true in the field
of politics, where there is a good deal of
shifting and shutting. and where in the
clash Of personal ambitions the radical
ism of one year is often the conservatism
Of the next, and the sworn enemies OIL
one year are the sworn allies of the next
At Chicago in 1895 David B. Hill warned
his party friends that they were adopting
populism, and Joseph W. Bailey declared
that Mr.. Bryan was not a democrat but
q populist. The Texas leader came with
in an ace Of repudiating the ticket that
year, on the ground that it was not an
expression of true democracy. Since then
Mr.. Bryan has been the conceded leader
OF the democracy, and has advanced in
his doctrines far beyond those that first
gave both Mr.. Hill and Mr.. Bailey pause.

Cholera Expectation.

Under an ideal system of International
amity 1t would be unnecessary for any
government to maintain q quarantine at
its own ports against the possible in
vasion Of disease from country in which
an epidemic was known to be raging In
such circumstances the affiicred country
would protect all others from possibility
of infection by preventing The wholesale
departure of people without a sufficient
precaution to insure against their carry
ing the disease with thesn. For example,
if Italy were to prohibit the departure of
any persons from the areas of cholera in
lection save after detention in perfectly
sanitary conditions for the period Of
disease incubation, there would be prac-
tically no chance of the spread OF the
plague into other lands from that source
Lacking such a system, which Is too
much to expect in the present state of
affairs, IL becomes essential for every
country to maintain a rigid barrier at it's
own ports against all corners from the
afflicted lands.
Apparently our quarantine is effective
The length of time required by trans
atlantic liners to reach our ports suffices
To develop latent cases of the disease.
The chances are that when the vessel
reaches quarantine II will have developed
cholera on board if any infection has
been introduced. At the same time Ii
would seem 10 be incumbent upon every
civilized country TO adopt precautions
against the wholesale departure, without
detention during a precautionary period,
OF hundreds Of people of the very classes
especially subject to the disease. 1t al
most appears as though there was de-
sire abroad to allow as many as possible
Of the people to move westward. shifting
upon the United States the responsibility
for sanitary regulation.

\ New York judge has just decided
that a Nevada divorce is not binding In
the former state, where the marriage was
performed. This decision, especially If
II should be followed by similar rulings
elsewhere, may 60 far to break up the
scandalous practice of divorce granting
on the long-distance basis which has
prevailed in this country for a number
of years. Nothing illustrates the neces-
sity of uniform marriage and divorce
laws so convincingly as the spectacle Of
a wife or a husband to whom the laws
of his own commonwealth do not grant
the right Of legal separation moving to
another place for the sole purpose of
evading or circumventing the statutes
under which he or she fully expects to
live afterward This Is no less than
la wlessness, the more demoralizng be-
cause 1t is the resort only of those with
sufficient means to pay the bills incl
dental TO change of residence. The
poor cannot thus seek release from mat
rimonial troubles. but they see their
more fortunate feliow-citixens literally
defyinx the laws of their states. and they
must acquire a contempt for the statutes
which finds expression In many ways and
leads to many crimes.
A marriage that 10 valid in enc state
should be valid everywhere. A marriage
that Is invalie In one state should not be
valid anywhere. The laws of New York
grant divorce Cor only single cause. and
usually the DEGREES of divorce prohibit the
remarriage OF one of the parties. Yet in
almost every instance this party goes
into another state, perhaps only across
the nearest boundary line. and there con-
tracts a marriage which is socially recog-
nized and is legally good in the state in
which 1t Is contracted. Until such q

LAWYERS and Office.

In speaking of the gubernatorial con-
| test in New York, Judge Parker Is quoted
| as saying: I'VE have tried lawyers for
| that great office, until the state Is almost
broke" A fling at his profession which
| does the finger no credit. He might have
| cracked up" Mr.. Dix in a different way
| Does not Judge Parker know that
Charles f. Hughes-a lawyer-served with
very great success at Albany? He met
the requirements Of the governorship so
completely. desire that he stand for a
third term was widespread, and passed
the boundaries of his own party. Many
democrats shared It, President Taft
pressed the matter before Offering the
seat on the Supreme bench. And, had
| the desire prevailed. the third nomination
| would have been made by reclamation,
and reelection would. have followed be-
yond a doubt. Nothing like the present
situation in the state could have arisen.
And does not Judge Parker know that
his fling at Mr.. Stimson is identical with
one of the filings made at himself In 1904?
He was criticised in certain quarters that
year as being only q lawyer. with but
scant experience in politics and no gen.
eral knowledge of political questions.
What promise of successful President
was there in a man who had spent so
many years on the bench, and whose
tastes had been formed there? Would he
not in office fall prey to selfish in
fluences. and injure himself, the party
and the country?
This argument did not defeat Judge
Parker. He lost as the leader of a COM
bination too incongruous to win. The
campaign was an effort to mix oil and
water: and nature again triumphed. The
rank and file Of the Clevelandites in the
east and of the Bryanites in the west
rejected the work of party managers
gathered in national convention.
Lawyers have done much at the head
of affairs both at Albany and here in
Washington Some of the greatest gov
ernors of states, and some Of the greatest
Presidents of the United States have
been lawyers. Mr.. Stimson's profession
is not against him. He stands very high
in it, and came into notice in much the
same way that Charles E. Hughes did.
If he reaches Albany he will lind good
use for all the law he knows.
But Judge Parker is not, Of course, to
be taken too literally. Mr.. Dix as the
candidate was a surprise, and Judge Par
ker, confronted suddenly with a request
for word of party cheer, did the best
he could In the circumstances. But, evil

The way or the woman teacher is be-

when woman was considered an ideal
instructor. That was when other voca-
tions tempted men from the schoolroom

that young woman graduates lacked
control as we'll as fitness for the teach
ing profession. Then many cities bar
red the married woman. for the reason
that her home interests prevented her

teachers is harmful to the pupil At
