problem Of plumbing thievery. He told
the exchange that he had lost not less

The District Coroner.

For long time past the feeling has
prevailed here, as in other cities, that
there is but little need of a coroner as
that official now fits into the scheme of
judicial procedure. Repeatedly it has
been urged that the system be changed,
to substitute for the coroners inquest,
which is virtually worthless for the de-
termination Of crime facts, a mode Of ex-
animation and report for the immediate
guidance of the prosecuting officials and
the grand jury. Certainly as the ''coro-
ner's inquest is now conducted it is Of
but little value In the detection and pun
ishment of crime and sometimes actually
serves to hinder rather than help.
But however administered, in accord
ance with the law, the office of coroner
should be regarded as immune from polit-
ical considerations and 1t is unfortunate
now that an effort is being made to put
this local position on a political basis
by demanding the removal Of the incum-
bent for the sole reason that he is not of
democratic persuasion, and his replace
ment by one who is of that faith.
To the extent of his authority and with
in the scope of his Office as at present
constituted. Coroner hewitt has dis
charged his duties with conscientious
fidelity. No complaint is heard against
him. no charge is brought for him to re-
fute no doubt is expressed as to his pro-
fessionaI capacity. And yet a demand is
made. even in such high quarter as the
White House. for his replacement by an
other man on the sole ground that the
other man is a democrat. This is spoils-
ism in It's most obnoxious form and the
District people trust that no heed will be
given to the clamor for this or any Other
local Office on such a plane. II any local
officials are dereiict in duty, or incom-
petent, or subject to any question as to
their integrity or diligence. they are
properly subject to criticism and possible
removal from Office. But so far as they
are competent and efficient and faithful
they should be maintained in their posi-
tons. irrespective of any supposed polit-
zeal affiliations or leanings.

Mr.. Roosevelt's Larynx.

There will probably be some contro-
versy over the condition of Mr.. Roose-
velt's larynx. A sentence OF complete
silence for months in the matter Of the
stump would make a difference in his
plans and his party's expectations His
bugie horn is valuable asset in the
bull moose propaganda. Nothing could
take Its PLACE,
But If only outdoor speaking is for

doors. Mr Roosevelt and his friends
may be able to arrange matters The
main point will be his appearance in the
field With crowds gathering TO see him,
he could, after brief salutation, "get
leave TO print; and his views in full
would appear in the afternoon and next
mornings newspapers.
In 1880 an amusing colloquy was re-
ported between Tiidenite and an anti
Tildenite democrat. Said the Tildenite
I'VE must nominate the old man again

Said the anti-Iildenite: But the candi.

Another Sea Collision.

With two inquiries in progress relating
to collisions between ships in fog, a third
accident of that character has occurred,
to give still another board of investiga-
ton occasion to probe the management Of
vessels in dangerous conditions. In this
latest case the vessels were fortunately
near the coast. and both Of them. though
badly damaged. were able to make port
in safety. Had the mishap occurred a
little farther at sea another marine hor-
ror would perhaps have been the result.
Only a few facts relating to the COLI
sion have been made known. 1t appears,
however. that the smaller vessel was
practically standing still on account of
the dense fog that prevailed of the
Needles. in the English channel. and
that even with this small Roadway il
