CARRIAGES AND THE MAYOR.

doubtless entirely justified. His desire
10 send the offending employees "out on

AT least learn the difference between
their knee and their elbow about vege-
tables" is, however, more than an ex-
preston Of wrath at individuals who

they were green. Before he wandered

ADNTRALS AND TICE-4 DMiRALS.

ADNTPALS AND TICE-ADuiRALS'
Washington dispatches report that the
House Committee on Naval Affairs mas
found way TO give officers In the navy
exercising the highest commands ranh
and nav commensurate with their re-
sponslbilities without enlarging the al
ready top-heavy naval retired list. Inc
Tribune suggested several weeks ago
that the way out was to limit the r'ght
of retirement AS admiralS and vlce-au'
mlrals, and that is apparently IN the
main what the House committee VIII
recommend The rear admiralS In com
mand of the Atlantic and Pacific heets
would have the rank, pay and allow
ances of an admiral while assigned 10
that duty. and the two rear admirals
commanding the second divisions Of the
Atlantic and Pacific fleets would have
the rank, pay and allowances Of vice
admirals. On relinquishing these assign
ments for other duty OF on retiring they
would become rear admirals again.
II Is easy TO see that were the two
higher grades opened to regular pro-
motion there would soon be too large a
number Of retired admirals and vice
admirals. Few officers become rear adj
mirals now until they are more than
sixty years old, and many serve In that
grade less than a year. II the two
higher grades were opened TO all, oppor-
tunities for retiring from them after n
very brief tenure would he eagerly
sought and the present overplus of high
rank retirements would be accentuated.
Under the system approved by the
House committee the officers who do the
most difficult and important work would
receive special consideration and receive
it only in proportion to the work of that
sort which they do. Congress Is natural
" unwilling TO increase the cost Of the
retired establishment, which has been
growing steadily and will continue TO
grow-without now legislation-for sew
eral years TO come

THE RECALL IMPOSSIBLE.

If Judge Archibald is impeached it will,
of course, be said that the non necessity
Of new removal machinery is shown. On
the contrary if the impeachment trial
drags on for months and months, as the
last one did. engaging the time of the
whole Senate and costing the taxpayers
hundreds of thousands Of dollars II is
probable convincing demonstration will
be furnished of the need of some better
method of judicial recall than now
exists.-The New York Globe.
Granted that if impeachment proceed
ings, should they he resorted to in this
case. work a.. badly AS they did in the
last case of the sort before the Senate
an effective method of getting rid of bad
judges will seem indispensable. But the
judicial recall will not serve. A special
election all over the country, costing, as
THE Globe says OF impeachment pro-
ceedings, hundreds Of thousands of dol
lars and taking the time Of the nations
entire population. merely 10 decide
whether or not a single federal judge
should be removed from the bench
would be preposterous. If the people
cannot arrange a system which will take
care Of detail like that and make IT
work without neccssitating their per-
Sonal attention to it then they are max
ing a mess OF popular government.
Where is this recall idea going to
stop? The latest proposal of the Poo
pies Power League in Oregon is 10 ex-
tend the recall to appointiye Offices. 1t
is logical. Why stop with judges and
others Of equal rank? If the people Of
the whole country must take day off
to remove judge who isn't doing his
duty, why not have them also take a
day off TO remove postal clerk when
ever one fails to do his duty? Belief
in the popular government which re-
callers and referendumites have is be-
lief that it has been a failure thus far.
but that 1t may be made success If It
is only made sufficiently difficult.
The recall of federal judges. requiring
a national recall election. IL not 10 be
conceived Of, unless the country goes
mad. If impeachment proceedings are
not effective there is only one thing for
the people TO do: Send men to Congress
who will make them effective.
