An Echo Of Mulhall.

Representative McDermotts resignation
from the House comes SO long after the
investigation of the so-called Mulhall
charges. which seemed at the time to be
of tremendous Importance. that it finds
the public somewhat cold on the SUBJ
1ect. 1t is necessary practically to re-
mind folks who Mulhall was and what
he did This interesting revealer of
legislative secrets promised a volcanic
eruption Of underground matter but in
truth only blew up few ashes and a
little unconsidered debris. In the case
of Representative McDermott his resig-
nation is accompanied by asseverations
of innocence and virtue which will doubt
less make a good campaign document in
the coming fight in the stockyards distric,
of Chicago. Meanwhile the question is
permissible, what has become Of Mulhall
and what are the results of his exposure
of alleged corruption?

Mexican Complexities.

The American administration is now
entering upon e. most difficult aspect
of the Mexican situation. Having ac-
complished the elimination of Huerta
in manner that has redounded
greatly to the credit of the United
States and thus far fully justified the
policy of President Wilson, whose OBJ
ject from the outset has been to re-
move from the direction of Mexican
affairs the mar who is believed to
have been responsible for the killing
of the late President Madero, this gov
ernment now seeks to secure the estab-
lishment of order in Mexico through
the installation of officials representa- :
tive of the people without adding to
The total of reprisals and cruelties
and property losses.
Events arc moving steadily toward
the accomplishment of this purpose
though the way is beset with Difficult
ties SO serious are these difficulties
indeed. that there must be public pa
thence with the progress. even though
il is slow and at times may seem to
be doubtful of success There is al
this time a natural desire on the part
of the constitutionalists to enter the
City of Mexico with all the glory of a
victorious force. and there is some dis
position as well to resist any dicta-
ton whatsoever respecting the mat
ter Of amnesty and guarantees of the
adjustment of claims of foreigners
President Carbajal has declared that he
will insist upon an agreement by the
constitutionalists to grant a general
amnesty toward those who supported
Huerta, while hints come from the rev.
olutionist camp that a general amnesty
IL out of the question and that the

The New Haven Case.

President Wilson's letter to the Attor-
ney General in the New Haven case ac-
cuses the directors of that railroad COM
pany of breaking faith with the govern
mcnt by reputation of the reorganization
agreement entered into last January. In
consequence of this breach of faith the
government is to proceed al once with a
suit in equity seeking the dissolution of
unlawful nonopo!ization of transportation
IN New England territory now sought to
he maintained" by the corporation. Fur
!hermore. the criminal aspects of the
case are to be laid before grand jury.
This is the beginning of what will
doubtless prove the most far-reaching
court procedure ever instituted by the
government in the case of a corporal ton
alleged 10 he acting in violation of the
federal statutes. The New Haven con-
solidaton is in itself one of the most
complex ever effected by monopoly
seeking transportation company. 1t en-
braces not merely steam railroad but
trolley and steamship lines as well and
the acqusitive activities of the cor
poration even included a gas company It
has been accomplished, according to the
report of the interstate commerce COM
mission. through wasteful series Of
financial transactions, already become the
subject of civil suits instituted by stock
holders. To dissolve this combination is
a task the like of which the government
has not yet undertaken. not even in the
case of the Standard Oil Company or any
OF the other large trusts that it has
sought to disorganize.
The public will be chiefly interested In
the criminal aspects of the case, which
the President directs to be laid before q
grand jury. probably in New York city.
Whether the government can reach by
such means the persons responsible for
the alleged violations of law remains to
be Seen The dissolution of the conbi-
nation, however, seems to be taken as a
matter of course, however involved the
process of accomplishment may be. In
deed. the very evident willingness of the
New Haven directors few months ago
to work out a dissolution process on their
own responsibility, under government
pressure. may be regarded as predicating
the ultimate separation of the corporate
units so expensively acquired.
1t is to be noted that the Attorney
General in his letter to the President, to
which the latter's sweeping instructions
are reply, suggests the possibility of Inn
munity being claimed by certain Of the
New Haven officials in the event of Grim
lnal prosecution in consequence of their
testimony before the interstate commerce
commission That there is friction be-
tween the Department of Justice and the
commission in this case has long been
known 1t remains now to be seen
whether the fears Of the Attorney General
in respect to the matter Of immunity are
well founded.

punishment of certain individuals is
held to be essential to the ends Of
justice and the establishment of peace.
In this matter of amnesty there il
another aspect of the case that will
certainly call for the most careful
ha ndling. This relates t" the charges
that have been made against Villa OF
cruelty in the prosecution of the con-
stitutionalist campaign. The English
government is inimical toward him on
the score Of the killing of Benton
while the French government is now
ment for the killing Of two French
priests. who. 1t is claimed, were or
dered to provide funds for the rebel
forces and refused to do so.
These matters, however difficult are
less SO than the problem already
solved. and there is reason to believe
that with care and circumspect delib-
Grafton the adjustments will proceed
satisfactorily. The danger lies not so
much in any failure on the part of
the United States to serve as an ef-
fective medium for the promotion of
peace as in the existence in Mexico OF
inevitably hostile forces. 1t is neces-
sary at this stage to bear in mind that
the political education of the Mexican
people has not yet advanced far
enough to insure the adoption of a
really national attitude. Personality
plays a large part in the affairs of
the republic. and the gravest peril at
this time consists of the likelihood of
further revolutionary movements. led
by discontented men seeking their
own advancement and using the pre-
text of patriotism. This. however. is
a factor that the United States cannot
control. and in the present handling
of the Mexican problem this govern
ment must be content with the pro-
verbal reflection that sufficient unto
the day is the evil thereof. leaving fu-
ture revolts to be handled as they may
arise.

Patronage.

For months political discussion has
carried little about patronage. Other
subjects have held attention The ad
ministration's unpopularity has been
attributed to it's business policies and
its foreign policies. Business depression
in particular has overshadowed every
thing else.
And yet. as now appears. patronage
has not been forgotten by the plain
people. If New York city and Chicago
have been occupied with the tariff, the
currency and the trusts, Podunk and
Shady Grove have had more In mind
the slow progress made in turning re-
publicans out of and putting demo-
Gratis into office. And as election day ap-
proaches this fact is becoming pain
fully plain to the democratic managers.
Warning comes from many quarters.
An important quarter is New York.
Chairman Osborn of the democratic
state committee has just completed
swing around the circle. made with a
view Of sounding sentiment, and he re-
ports resentment in democratic circles
toward the administration for its fall
ure to give out post Offices" And he
adds: Il think this will affect the con-
gressional vote in this state"
News of like tenor comes from Iowa.
The pie there has not been cut to gen.
eral satisfaction. nor the pieces ap-
portioned to the democracy's advan-
tage. Ten men have been disappointed
to one gratif1ed and the ten are either
nois!ly or quietly resentful. They are
showing no signs Of enthusiasm for the
coming contest.
Politicians of experience when in
frank mood discuss this matter very
entertainingly. They do not want to give
up patronage, but confess that it is
full of dynamite. 1t needs to be handled
with extreme care; and even then ex-
plosions are apt to occur and cause
wide destruction. Many man elected
to office on his merits and showing
merits in office has been put out Of
office by his incapacity to distribute
to his advantage the places that fell
to him. A great lawyer. or great
his Waterloo at the pie counter
This is one of the points made by the
opponents Of government ownership
of the leading public utilities. Govern
ment patronage would be SO enormous
ly multiplied. it could not be handled
with safety either to the handlers or
to the country. The machinery of
operation would break down through
the weight Of size and complication.
But, embarrassing as it Is, patronage
exists. and the politicians must take all
the chances. Sometimes they win with
its aid. Much oftener they lose by its
danger. Feeding a large number of
hungry mouths with only a small
amount OF provender requires more
skill than the great majority of off,
cials command; and empty stomachs
are dangerous at the polls.

There is a common but erroneous idea, -
says the commissioner, that clear water

to all appearances is uncontaminated car
ries the germs of typhoid and dysentery"
Whether he chooses q country hotel. a
farmhouse or a summer camp the va
cationist invariably prefers to be near
a stream of water. Sometimes he drinks
from such stream without the slight
est concern as to the purity Of its source
or as to the contamination to which 1t

Mileage Graft and Others.

The mileage graft. after Its usual dis

there has been much hypocrisy and
playing to the galleries" in the dis
cussing and voting was made clear
during the final consideration by the
lower house. There were several In
teresting comments. and not the least
pertinent was that of Representative
Mann. the minority leader. He took oc-
casion to point out that some of the
stron noest takers against the mileage
grab were men who had habitually alb
sented themselves from the sessions of
the House. and who continued to col
lect their salaries. Such a proceeding
