Under the heading New spaper Medi-
cane" the Journal of the American
Medical Association publishes n re-
view Of articles that have recently
appeared in various newspapers with
comments upon the attitude Of lay
writers when discussing physicians.
Discussion of these subjects in the lay
press Is appreciated by this true ex'
ponent of the medical profession MS

be asked: Who is more competent to
advise on these matters? And it may
also be here noted that 80 far from
"ruling too much" the various fool acts
Of our legislators prove the contrary.
This has been illustrated recently by
performances Of the Legislatures of

The other day THE Sun noticed with
sympathy and approval Rex Aurei

translation by Mr.. ARcADius AvEL-

forbearance was the product Of a spirit
Of fair play. coupled with widespread
esteem for Mr.. WILSON. The public,
including political dissentients. were
inclined to suspend judgment until the
programme Of the party might be so
far developed as to be capable Of ap-
praisal as whole.
But 1t cannot be doubted that since
the close Of the Presidents first year
OF Office and the general striking Of a
balance which marked that occasion
there has been distinct change Of
tone. Doubters have begun to q,ies-
ton, opponents have unsealed their lips
and what looks like a rising wave Of
criticism has set In. How FAR this
may 60. how high II may rise, how
dangerous II may prove to the Demo-
cratic bark. no one can tell. Much de-
ponds on the fortunes Of the people in
the meantime, and politicians may well
fear to-day that proxlmate conditions
in this regard will not be favorable to
the party In power.
Parallel with the possible alteration
IN public sentiment runs the Presidents
determination to carry out his pro-
grammc to the bitter end. The ex-
perience Of the last year indicates that
there will he no effective opposition In

extremes to which they are urged.
they have no stomach for insurgency.
In the surrender Of some doubtful per-
quisites the sorely tried postulants for
reelection find possible peace Offering
to lay before the public. OF course 1t
is bitter that they have to pay for the
Presidents obstinacy out of their own
pockets. But difficult situations call
for drastic remedies. To profit too
richly themselves while trade and IN
dustry languish and the unemployed
growl would seem to be tempting Prov
idence and the voters. whispers OF
discretion have reached the hearts Of
the patriots 10 lately clamdrous for all
that was coming to them, and In silence
and gloom they have at least assumed a
becoming virtue and spurned the long
accustomed graft.
Let us hope they will gain such re-
ward as may be due them.

The action OF the House of Repre-
sentatives yesterday in voting down
the mileage abuse and stopping short
in the secretaries pay grab indicates
an awakened attention in Washington
to the general direction Of straws blown
about by currents of popular opinion.
1t is only a week or two since II was
quite evident to all that the 20 cents
q mile allowance per legislator was the
minimum on which they could be ex-
pected to journey to Washington. and
the sorrows OF the $500 secretary
cried out to heaven for 5000 worth Of
redress.
Very likely in their secret hearts the
lawmakers are Of the same opinion
still, Their sad If not sulky demeanor
as they sacrificed themselves and the
secretaries on Friday suggests that
they were not uplifted with the joy
that comes OF conscious rectitude.
Their attitude might be llkened to that
Of mariners who sadly throw their

1t looks as II realization were be-

racy that the period of glamour, in
which anything and everything 1t chose
70 do looked good. has passed by and
a stage Of question and criticism has
arrived, with indications that II nav

Republican Administration of THEODORE
ROOSEVELT. JOHN HAY being his Secre-
tary Of State.
JOHN HAY is dead. Colonel ROOSEVELT
Is in the wilderness. Both. however. have
declared in the most positive and un-
cQ,iivocal fashion that nothing in the
action Of the Roosevelt Administration
with regard TO Colombia and Panama
" matter for regret or subject for
apology on the part Of this republic.
Colonel ROOSEVELT has said:
1--WE did our best TO get Colombia to let
Us treat her with more than generous
Justice we exercised patience to beyond
the verge OF proper forbearance. When
we did act and recognize Panama, Colom-
bia at once acknowledged her own guilt
by promptly Offering to do what we had
demanded. and what she had protested IL
was not in her power to do. But the
offer came too late. Colombia
was solely responsible for her own humil-
iation and she had not then, and has not
now. one shadow of claim upon us, moral
or legal; all the wrong that was done was
done by her"
JOHN HAY has said:
"The action of the President tRoosE-
vRLrl in the Panama matter is not only In
,-t. -,
Justice and equity, and In line with all the
best presidents of our public policy. but I,
was the only course he could have taken

obligations"
