The TWILIGHT Zone in California.

There seems to be tendency among some ex-
celleus Democrats Of the old school to speak with
hated breath Of the nations treaty making power
IL exists of course And the courts have gone q
long way to uphold IT, But then there are the re-
served rights Of the states which must and shall be
preserved. Who can decide between them?
No one knows what Mr. Bryan is instructed TO
saw TO the State of California. But there Is be-
lief in some quarters that some such ancient strict
constructonist doctrine will breathe in his words
We sincerely hope that these fears will prove
baseless A more mischievous doctrine than the
view which sets federal rights in sort of perrna-
nent equilibrium and deadlock with state rights
and leaves both parties to the contest impotent 1t is
hard to conceive.
Public opinion IN America has made long strides
away from this old folly. The twilight zone be-
tween national and state authority has been ma
terially cut down in the last quarter century The
decision of the Commerce Court In the Texas rate
cases IS in line with this tendency. for example.
The broad common sense principle must be, we
conceive that where sovereign power is reposed in
the nation there goes with 1t all needed authority to
execute II without let hndrance from the states.
That IL the doctrine which Is likely to control In

The Problem of Scutari.

Scntari fallen seems to he veXing n problem TO
Europe as Scutar untaken was to Montenegro
though without any cause which is convincing to
impartial observers.
It is shocking thing In Austro Hungarian eyes
for Montenegro to "fout the decision Of the great
powers" But what is IL for the powers 10 fout the
rights of Montenegro. the common rights Of bel
ligerence and conquest? 1t is a wicked and depravcd
act for Montenegro TO take Scutari in open and
heroic battle against the wishes Of Austria Hungary.
But what was It for Austria Hungary to seize Bosnia
and Herzegovina against the provisions Of solemn
treaty into which she had entered with the other
powers?
done TO Austria Hungary nor would her political in
terests he IMPAIRED or menaccd In the slightest de
gree by Montenegrn possession Of Scutari, excepting
that she would be to that extent baked in her eff
forts to repress throttle ste and ultimately destroy
two Of the most gallant little states In all Europe
OF course this country is not concerned In the matter
save in an academic and humanitarian fashion. But
Americans do admire pluck and detcst bullying
wherever they see them and at this distance and
from this impartial point of view there seems TO be
no reason why Montenegro should renquish the
prize which she has fairly and valiantly wOn nor
why any honorable and justice loving power should
compel ask her to do so.

Who Shall Do the Peacemaking?

Mr. Bryces farewell contained the suggestion
that the United States should take the lead IN
establishing peace among the nations of the world
That implies compliment to this country which
will be duly appreciated. especially as coming from
one Of the most Informed and sympatheuc upio
matte ENJOYS that ever visited America
But is it really Americas place to do the word
peacemaking? And have we assurance tha' Jul
efforts in that direction will not be regarded as
meddIesome and ofieous? This country undertook
10 assure peace on a basis of equity In China on
the basis of integrity of the realm and the open
door: but there has been more than one complaint
that we have no business to concern ourselves with
the political systems of the Old World.
This nation will not be backward in exertlng all
possible influences for peace Yet 1t Will be at least
as much to the point to paraphrase famous re-
mark on somewhat allied subject for the potentlai
peacebreakers to begin.

A Bill to Protect lncompetents.

The Walker bill giving to classified civil service
employees the right to trial before dismissal ana
10 court review of the trial is a bill to promote
decentralization of the civil service.
So great would be the obstacles to getting rid OF
the incompetent that executives would either have
10 tolerate incompetence or devote large part OF
their energies to holding trials and proving In
court the necessity for dismissals. The state has
already gone as far as 1t can consistently with its
own interests In making positions on the classified
lists secure When a job becomes an absolutely
sure thing the holder Of It is encouraged to become
lazy. No man now occupying classified position
who Is reasonably efficient needs any more protec
ton than he has.
Governor Sulzer prides himself on his support OF
civil service reform. If he has its interests really
at heart he will veto this bill to make the dismissal
Of incompetents virtually impossible If 1t comes TO
him for action.

GUS. He brought his ship in a position
TO break the enemy's line OF battle. He
gave two ships a raking fire with his
starboard guns. poured a broadside into
schooner from his larboard tier. and
lay his ship alongside of the British
commodore. Tho effect OF his FIRE was
terrific and the enemy's battery was 81
fenced in very short time. The Ameri-
can vessels were soon brought UP. and
the contest decided. which had now lasted
for nearly three hours. The enemy was
not only entirely subdued, but all his
vessels were taken and brought TO the
American side OF the lake.
Never did a warrior fight with drawer
or more skilful foe. Commodore Barclay.
who commanded tho British squadron on
that day. was a man OF no ordinary
fame. He had gained laurels at the bat
tie of Trafalgar and other sea fights
where Englishmen had bled and won thu
victory; but this day his experience did
not avail him-he was forced TO Yield.
The loss was great on both sides. but
much more severe on the part OF the
British. They had two hundred killed
and wounded. the Americans about ons
hundred and twenty-three. Commodore
Barclay was severely wounded. having
lost his remaining hand In the Aght. tbs
other having been shot of in some pre-
vious battle.
"In this fight Perry's conduct was marked
with Skill bravery and perseverance. He
omitted nothing. did everything he should
have done and nothing more. He was as
humane as brave. and as modest as hu.
name. He took special care OF the
wounded OF the enemy as well as OF his
own gallant crews, and did all that could
have been done to assuage tho wounds
of person and feeling OF Commodore
Barclay while he was a prisoner IN his

ION September TO- 1872, the American

six hundred persons: sailors. landsmen

in men and metal, being six vessels. car

and some damage was done TO the
Lawrence before Perry could make his
short guns bear upon the enemy. At
length he opened his battery and stood
the fire of the enemy's force for two
hours. The other part Of his fleet did not
come to his assistance.
THE Lawrence was becoming unman-
ageable: her decks were strewn with the
dead her guns were dismounted. At this
moment Perry conveived a bold and most
admirable design. 1t was no sooner con-
ceived than II was put I'm execution. Civ
ing the command OF the Lawrence to Lieu
