The manner In which the fire on the
North Dakota was quenched with a COM
paratively small injury to the ship and
the loss Of only three lives attests to
the splendid discipline prevailing on
board. Had not the compartment in
which the fire occurred been Immediately
flooded, in accordance with the routine
prescribed for such emergencies. doubt
less the entire vessel would have been
destroyed, with an appalling loss Of life.
II Is exceedingly unfortunate that 1t was
not possible TO save the three men who
were trapped In the burning place. and
whose death. singularly enough. was
caused by drowning. II appears that
every effort was made to rescue them,
but without avail.
A court Of inquiry has already been
named TO determine the cause Of the ex-
piosion and to afix the responsibility
for II in aeeordapce with the facts. Il
Is TO be believed that this duty will be
faithfully discharged and at the same
time II Is to be hoped that no one will be
found blameworthy. Meanwhile. the
pubic must feel treasured by the demon
stration that this disaster affords OF the

The present prospects of a democratic

a ground swell may roll. Things are very
complicated for the republicans. and may
get worse. IL after the Saratoga con-

thoroughly up they draw no nice distinc-

and everything they do not like and can
reach.
In point OF ability the democrats have
some good men. Judge Parker and Judge
Herrick are of senatorial size, though
neither Is popular. Both stand as legal
advisers too near TO the corporations.
The same Is true OF Edward NJ. Shepard.

A Plain Announcement.

Forewarned is forearmed. That good
old truth is given new exemplification In
the declaration by the travelling con-
tributing editor now on tour through the
middle west that he will under no cir
cumstances take Office with a disposition
TO be lenient toward any bad performer,
however influential he may have been in
effecting his election. The substance Of
his declaration is comprised in the fol-
lowing paragraph from the speech de-
livered at Freeport, H.:
mo corporation, no politician must ever
support me for anything under the idea
that j will pardon that corporation or
that politician if it or he is corrupt. II
either corporation or politician, II either
one or the other, helps to put me i'm po-
sition of influence. let them remember
that IL they are corrupt. il they encourage
corruption in others or benefit by II them
selves. they help me at their peril. for I
VIII hurt them If get the chance"
1t was very considerable on the part of
the travelling contributing editor to pause
In his outgiving of generalized wisdom
and advice to give such plain warning
that he would not take office from his
enemies with forgiveness In his heart.
Any one acquainted with his tempera-
ment and record might easily have been
misled into believing that If elected again
to high position he would welcome his
foes to his arms and pardon them all
their iniquities.
Far be 1t from any proper-minded
American to read into this speech an
announcement OF candidacy. 1t is obvious
from its text that nothing can be further
from the mind of the faunal naturalist
now on tour than ambition again to oc-
cupy the office Of President OF the United
States. 1t is perfectly plain to the peo-
pie Of this country that public position
is nauseous to him. Nothing is more
certain than that If rendered the presi-
dency he would reject it-unless forced to
take it. Every word he has uttered since
leaving Oyster Bay has been capable of
construction as a denial Of presidential
intentions. Every action has been an
advertisement of his aloofness from poll
tics, his inviolable retreat into private
citizenship.
In these circumstances and in the light
of all that has been said and all the
warnings that have been given 1t is now
for the American people to decide whether
they wish to sacrifice on the altar of pub
lie Office this patriotic citizen whose
thought is SO far removed from personal
advantage or glorihcation.

Hear the Hon. Champ clark: II l am
elected Speaker of the next House OF
Representatives, will drive a team Of
Missouri mules down Pennsylvania ave-
nue."
This is not bid for support. Mr.. Clark,
IL he lives and his party controls the next
House, will be the Speaker beyond a
doubt There was a little talk-a very lit
tle-at one time about an eastern man,
but 1t made no Roadway. The better. and
much the stronger. opinion was that the
Missourian was the man for the job, and
that opinion is now unanimous.
Mr. Clark merely announces a program.
And a most interesting program 1t is!
Something Is left to the imagination. To
what shape of vehicle will the animals be
hitched? A buggy. with room for two.
Mr.. Clark and Mr.. Cannon? An old-fash-
toned democrat" with red wheels and a
green body? Or a substantial farm wagon.
such as Missouri mules love, and some
times in play kick the stufin' out of?
But the mules will look well. hitched to
any shape Of vehicle. And OF course on
such an accession Mr. Clark will make
sure that they are on their good beha-
vior. He knows the beast in both real
and fgurative form. He has driven him
In the flesh. and seen him perform as a
figure of speech. No man Is better quail
fed to hold the lines over such a team
and pay out the length of whip in an
emergency.
Well. why not? Why not inaugurate a
Speaker rs we do q President? Mr.. Clark's
program might be developed In that d.
rection and maybe he has that end In
view. The Ozark statesman may see him
self escorted to the Capitol by long pro-
cession, the mule team preceded ard fol-
lowed by mounted men and foot soldiers.

FROM the chicago ecord-Herald.
Mexico is now celebrating it's struggle
for Independence which began one hun
dred years ago. 1t was a small begin
ming, followed by crushing reyerses.
and 1T was not until 1921 that the in
dependence of the country was recog.
nized by Spain. Then came a lone
period OF civil wars. This was the
story throughout Spanish America, and
at times 1t seemed as IL independence
was hardly worth the price that was
being paid for it. The end of feuds
and strife came in Mexico with the
supremacy of DiaZ. During his many
administrations there has been a stable
government but it has not escaped vio-
lent criticism, and even moderate writ
ers have declared that his presidency
Is dictatorship. The attacks have
continued UP to the present day; the
word republic Az 1t is applied to the
country is said to be mockery. IL
must be acknowledged. however. that
there has been vast Improvement
since the FIRST revolt was started, and
this is true of the Spanish-American
nations generally.

the majority OF the committee Is deter
mined to hold the report back until after
the election. while the minority Is equally
determined to spread the case before the
voters at once The consequence will be
the immediate PRONUNCIATION Of what pur-
ports to be the minority report Of the
committee, while the majority report Will
follow several weeks later.
In the circumstances, the spectacle Of
members OF Congress charged with .
most important task Of inquiry, virtually
Sinking their duties and by their alb
sence from a specifically called meeting
permitting the minority to gain . parti-
san advantage Is certain In itself to Gre
ate the impression Of insincerity which
will initiate against the influence Of the
majority report when II T. finally framed
and published.
In this case the country Ii entitled to
a decision without undue delay. The evil
dence has all Teen taken and there has
been sufficient time for a decision.
In point of fact the finding could have
been rendered almost Immediately after
the completion of the taking Of testi-
mony here In Washington. and, as far as
the political effect Of the verdict is
concerned. IL would have been wiser to
settle the case then than to keep II open
for months. 1t is true that this joint
investigating committee is the creature OF
Congress and that its report is to that
body. but Congress has no such exclusive
jurisdiction as to warrant the Withholding
of the findings from the public. for par
tisan purposes. until after the people have
cast their ballots for the election of the
next House of Representatives and the
legislatures that will choose one-third of
the Senate. No process Of reasoning can
establish this case as one lying exclusively
within the responsibilities of Congress.
1t is due to the Secretary Of the In
terror that, If vindication is to be his
portion, 1t should be announced without
further delay. 1t Is due to his accusers
that the committees judgment upon their
charges and the evidence they have ad-
duced to support them should be prompt
ly rendered. Public confidence in the
committees decision has undeniably been
shaken by the partisanship already dis
played by both sides of the committee.
