these the Cuban government dealt
promptly and firmly and, as now ap-
pears. effectively. We must assume
that it has also acted with impartiallty
and Justice, so as TO permit a free and
honest while compelling an orderly
election. Upon this achievement 1t is
TO be heartily congratulated. The re-
suit is profound relief to the United
States and will doubtless prove great
benefit to Cuba.
For, in view of the unhappy fire.
duency of unconstitutional methods IN
some other Latin-American states Dor
dering upon the Caribbean Sea, it IS
no incOnsiderable thing for one Of the
foremost Of those states to set an eX-
ample of loyalty to law. 1t is a demon
stration of the increasing. aptitude for
orderly f-government among a people
whose antecedents did not as markedly
as our own cOnduce to that end. This
is the result which does greatly matter
TO the United States, and which mat
tiers more than anything else to the
Cubans themselves. 1t is Of far more
importance to the Cuban Republic TO
have an election conducted lawfully
than to have any one particular candi-
date chosen. The defeated party
should, and we doubt not will, realize
that it is better for it to be defeated
honestly and legally than it would have
been for it TO win by methods of doubt

WILSON ON CORPORATIONS.

Governor Wilson's zeal for such state
regulation Of corporations as will pre-
vent them from enjoying special privi-
leges and monOpolieS at the expense Of
the people appears to make an eXcep-
ton in favor Of some of those cor
porations Of his own state which have
long been regarded as most oppressive
It will be recalled, for example, that
a bill was introduced into the Legis-
lature by a Republican Senator pro-
yiding for the abolition Of the danger
GUS grade crossings on which many
persons are killed or injured every
year. and for its being done at the
cost of the railroads, as expressly pro-
vided in their charters. Not wishing
the Republicans in the Legislature to
win the popular favor which the pas
sage of such bill would give them,
the Governor fought against its enact
ment, and when 1t was finally passed
in spite Of him he refused to sign It,
his chief objection being that 1t would
be a hardship to the railroads
Again, the Republicans, before he be-
came Governor, provided for the thor
ough physical revaluation of the rail-
roads by competent expert. This
work-however intelligent opinion may
divide as to the general ACCESSIBILITY Of
such undertakingS-wa done in man
ner which commanded the interest and
admiration Of authorities all over the
country, and as result the taxable
valuation Of the roads was largely In
creased, as the people Of the state had
long suspected it should be. But now,
says ex-senator Frelinghuysen, the
State Board Of Assessors, three Of
whose four members were appointed by
Governor Wilson, has set aside that
| work and has reduced the assessments
TO a figure acceptable 10 the railroads,
some sixty million dollars below the
valuation of the expert. 1t will be re-
membered, by the way, that Governor
Wilson has been sneering at experts in
his campaign speeches. Evidently he
prefers to have some corporations as
sessed by politicians of his own selec-
ton rather than by impartial men who
have the authority Of special knOwl-
edge.
Ex-senator Frelinghuysen also calls
attention to another fragrant example
Of this pretentious trust controllers
partially for certain favored corpora
tions. Last summer school money to
the amount of about $3,5O0,OOO was on
deposit In certain banks, which were
lOaning it at high rate Of interest to
the very schools TO which II belonged
and to which il ought 10 have been dis
tributed according to law. This state
of affairs was due TO the action, or lack
of action, Of the Democratic Controller
and of Governor Wilson's Board Of
| Assessors. And when the State Board
Of Education, bipartisan body, ap-
pealed to the Governor TO put an end
to the situation by having the money
distributed to the schools, he never
even acknowledged the communication,
(which was delivered into his own
hands" Nor is it known that he has
since apologized with a forgive my
manners"

MIXING THE SIGNALS.

Senator James A. O'Gorman seems
90 have fallen a victim to the complica-
lions Of an up-to-date Democratic cam
paign. He failed to appreciate the fact
that il is absolutely necessary to read
the latest speech Of the Presidential
candidate in order TO know just where
and how the Democratic party stands.
Mr.. O'Gorman has been about Demo
cratic national headquarters somewhat
this fall, but he has evidently neglected
70 keep close enough to the Democratic
candidates chariot wheels TO know
whether that vehicle was heading east
or west.
In q speech delivered in Brooklyn
Friday evening the junior Senator from
this state guessed that the Wilson band
wagon was going one way when, in fact,
It was travelling rapidly in exactly the
opposite direction. Mr.. OGorman pro-
duced an Grafton suited 10 the atmos-
nhere of the Tariff Chamber Of Hor-
rors when, If he had read the news
papers of Friday morning, he must have
noticed that Governor Wilson had per-
emptorily closed up the Chamber and
nailed "To Let" notice on the door.
IT was a sad arrangement Of the
"team work" about which Mr.. Wilson
likes TO talk. The junior Senator might
as well have referred TO the Democratic
national platform Of 1912, which he
helped to compile, as an instructive
and up-to-date document, although all
the world knows that the candidate for
President holds that it contains no
programme" at ALL
Ii was a pathetic case Of misunder-
stood signals when Mr.. OGorman al
lowed himself TO say in Brooklyn that
"we cannot longer endure the ltarifl
"system for which the Republican
"party is responsible Mr.. Wilson said
I'm Philadelphia, and again at the Madi-
son Square Garden meeting, that the
tarlff system was all right in itself and
only. needed to be trimmed Of abuses

best old-fashioned Democratic style
Remove your prOhibitiye trade laws
against foreign importation Of food,
"clothing and other products and the
american people would not be so abb
"solutely at the mercy Of the trusts"
But Mr.. Wilson's last-week- of-the-cam-
paign promise is not to interfere with
existing conditions In trade and in.
dustry which are adjusted to a pro-
tectiye basis. He denies vigorously
any intention TO remove the duties
on food, clothing and other products,
and is trying to convince the voters in
the great industrial states that as a
tariff reformer he is not TO be classed

Randall.
Mr.. O'GOrman should have made his
Brooklyn speech a month ago. Mr..
Wilson was then patronizing the Tariff
Chamber Of Horrors and thought that
he was making voters by doing so.
Now he has discovered that it pays
better to compliment the protective
system than to abuse it. If Mr.. O'Gor-
man had been a more successful stu
dent of wisconsin he would have CON
verified his speech in Brooklyn into an
offhand eulOgy Of protection and echoed
Mr. Wilson's fervent protest that the
Democratic party's attitude toward
protection is 10 more hostile to it than
that of the Republican national plat
form of 1908.

preparedness can have only one re-
suit.
The other item is that of secrecy
Perhaps never before in history was
all Europe so hoodwinked. Nobody
outside Of the Balkan States seems TO
have known what was going on. No
body knew of the formation Of the
Balkan League, or of the vast military
preparations which were In progress.
The latest year books and official re-
ports continued TO rate the various
armies at inconsiderable strength and
inefficient equipment and discipline.
No inkling of the aggressive Intention
Of the states came out. Moreover,
when the war began it was tegun be-
hind a veil Of impenetrable secrecy.
The censorship kept correspondents
from the front and dispatches from
returning 10 the rear. Not until the
blows fell was there any warning or
the direction from which they were to
come or of the objective upon which
they were to fall. Had Turkey known
in advance the plans Of the invaders
she could scarcely have foiled them.
Not having the slightest knowledge OF
them, she could not even perceptibly
delay their execution.
The third lesson is that Of the es-
sentially unchanging character OF war
High power explosives, the vastly in
creased range Of firearms, the mar
veIlous development Of weapons Of pre-
cision and all else that science has
done for warfare have not yet rem
dered obsolete the man-to-man conflict
In bayonet charges which in oldtime
wars was generally the ultimate ar
bitter. In the Napoleonic campaigns,
in our Civil War, in the FrancO-Ger-
man struggle, I'm the Russo-Japanese
War and now i'm this fierce, swift, de-
cisive struggle I'm the historic cockpit
of the world the same story Is repeated
again and again. Armies, however
equipped and manGuvred are simply
great collections of individual fighting
men. and warfare between them con.
sists in the thousandfold or hundred
thousandfold repetition Of the process
Of one mans trying to kill another.
And the man who is the better pre-
pared to kill, and who takes his antag'
onist by surprise, is the likelier TO do
the killing.

A PRIZE WINNERS WORK.

The work Of DR.. Carrel, this years
Nobel prize winner in medicine ana
surgery, is discussed with high pro-
fesSional authority in "The Lancet OF
London. although il is frankly con
fessed that i'm England much less Is
known Of 1t than might be desired.
He is recognized as having worthily
followed in the path which the epochal
achievements Of Lister opened 10 the
world, and as having accomplished
that which has already bestowed bene-
fit upon the human race and which VIII
continue hereafter TO beStow more.
Much Of his work is, of course, too tech
meal for lay understanding, but some
of its fundamental features will APP
peal to every intelligent mind.
His first important demonstrations
were in the surgery Of the vascular
system. 1t had been supposed to be
impossible to sew or otherwise 10 JOIN
the ends of severed vein or artery, or
even TO close with suture a cut or
puncture in the side Of one, but to be
necessary TO employ a ligament. Less
than ten years ago it was argued be
fore surgical societies that any attempt
TO sew together the cut ends Of blood
vessel was doomed TO failure. Dr.
Carrel successfully demonstrated the
entire practicability Of the operation,
however: the requisite conditions be-
ing perfect asepsis and skilful and suf-
ficiently delicate technique. From
that he proceeded TO demonstrate the
practicability Of replacing an injured
or lost section Of an artery or vein
with a piece Of another vessel, and this
remarkable operation is now fully
recognized in practice
The practicabiity of thus trans
planting portions Of the vascular system
suggested to him next the possibility Of
performing the same marvellous process
with other organs, and his experiments
in that direction met with gratifying
success. Several of the vital organs.
especially the kidneys, have thus been
transplanted from one animal 10 an
other Of the same species, and they
have been accepted by their new en-
vironments and have lived and per
formed their natural functions as per
fectly as though they had always be
longed there. In addition, II has been
shown that section Of a blood vessel
may be removed from one animal, be
kept for some days or even weeks IN
cold storage and then be successfully
implanted I'm another animal, even In
one Of another species and in another
part Of the circuatory system. Thus,
piece Of a vein may be taken from
the body Of a dog, be kept in storage
for a week and then be inserted as Il
part Of an artery in Il cat In the
cases in which these operations nave
been performed upon human subjects a
success at least equal 10 that In the
case Of animals has been attained.
The possibilities Of such practice, in
the elimination of diseased or injured
tissues and organs and the replacing Of
them with sound ones, are great be-
yond the reach Of speculation, and
they abundantly proclaim their dis
cOverer a benefactOr Of the race.

one Of Mr.. Roosevelt's organs when 1t

decorum decided to abandon their pro-
jected Saturday parade, and the Re-

Higgins was a generous, public spirited

His ideal Of life was faithful service,
and his activities in public affairs,
which led him 20 high Office, were not
founded in ambition or directed to
spectacular ends. but were forced on
him by the demands OF his neighbors,
who gave him successive trusts, which
he faithfully kept No man devoted
himself 10 public duties with more Of
industry and inAexible integrity than
he. As Senator he made himself
master Of the finances Of the state and
did much 20 further orderly and
economical administration. As Gov
crnor he conducted the affairs Of the
state with great cihclcnGy ana uhqu'S-
toned honesty, taking a leading part in
the introduction OF reforms and the
stamping out Of corruption. His mod
esty and simplicity Of character often
