fact that Pennsylvania, Mr.. Palmer's
home state, is unshakabfy republican.
Tho majority in a presidential year
is anywhere from a quarter Of mil
lion up.
And yet the governor and the At
torney General on this question OF
law and o.der and keeping down un,
rest as much as possible are in COM
plete accord. Politics, in their opin-
ion, is not involved. The welfare OF
the country in a matter entirely I'M
associable with politics is the sole CON,
sideration with them; and both as citi.
zens and as officials they are stan ding
together, prepared to do their duty
by the great majority of the people.
This is the true American spirit,
and it exists in every state Of the
Union. If it were absent, there would
soon be no Union at all, but simply
a population of hundred million peG-
pie divided into classes warning
among themselves for advantage, each
class for itself, and devil take the
hindmost. And should we ever turn
fool in that fashion, we shall be able
to give Russia cards and spades and
beat her in the game of bloody chaos.
For the rotten lily is always more Of
feusive than the rotten weed.

More Teachers Needed.

With over 10000 pupils enrolled in
the public schools of the District, the
largest number in local history, addi-
tional teac hers are imperatively nee
essary to conduct the schools on a
basis of efficiency. The Commission
ers are su Emitting to Congress an
emergency estimate of $133, 900, to be
Immediately available, for the employ
ment of 1872 more teachers. This ap-
preparation should be voted without
delay. A real emergency exists. The
children are crowded into classes that
are too large to permit proper atten-
ton to them. The teachers are over
burdened. Some of them have already
yielded to the intense strain and been
forced to leave the service, tempo
rarily or permanently. It is unfair
to the children as well as to the teach
ers to attempt to maintain a school on
SO inadequate a basis. The building
problem is in itself serious, but that
cannot be remedied as quickly as the
need of additional teachers. The
matter of equipment, however, should
be taken up for the earliest possible
consideration, presumably in the fran
ing of the regular appropriation bill,
which should carry a large sum for
construc ton. Washington's schools
will continue to grow and must have
room and teachers in proportion.

The Jenkins Ransom.

The State Department takes the
view that when Consular Agent Jen-
kins, through his representatives, paid
Mexican bandits $3.50, 900 ransom for
his release, he assumed all response
bility for any claim that might be
made against the Mexican government
for reimbursement. This position is
based upon the principle that the
United States would not itself pay a
ransom in the event . citizen Of a
foreign country should be kidnapped in
this country. IF the United States,
regarding Mr.. Jenkins Is an officer Of
the government, had itself paid the
ransom it would presumably have had
a claim against Mexico. Mr.. Jenkins
release was effected as personal mat
ter, however He or his friends did
not wait for this government to take
up the case, and, therefore, the ran
som stands as personal payment, for
recovery of which he will have to
sue in Mexico. With the State Do
partnent holding a. it does that there

Americans Standing Together

Evidence multiplies that men Of
both the leading political parties are
standing together in championing Law
and order and our American institu-
lions. The men of Massachusetts set
an example last Tuesday which men
elsewhere are copying. Men every
where will copy it as the issue strikes
in. The champions of confusion and
disorder have but to proceed full
speed ahead to find themselves up
against a stone wall.
Yesterday, at Harrisburg, Pa, con-
ference of mayors and burgesses
called by Gov. Sproul was held for
considering the question of fair prices
"a very interesting question these
days, when so many prices are unfair,
and profteers are adding to the pre-
yailing unrest throughout the country
Gov. Sproul presided, and the prin-
cipal speaker was Attorney General
Palmer, who. in his address. ode
nounced the move of the state Fed
Grafton of Labor for a general strike
of workingmen in Pennsylvania" Gov
Sproul applauded the address and
said "he was proud to listen to such
Statements
On political questions these two
men are as the poles apart. Gov
Sproul is a republican, of brand SO
unmistakable he has reached his
party's highest state honor. There has
been suggestion of presenting his
name to the next republican national
convention for the nomination for
President.
Mr. Palmer is a democrat. of q
brand so unmistakable he has reached
place in the cabinet. He is men
toned for the democratic nomination
for President. Indeed. there is 6

tho esnpliment is the greater for tn.

tho case. there would seem to be little
likelihood Of recovery Of the Jenkins
ransom, or, indeed, of any other sum
that may hereafter be paid in case of
kidnapping by bandits south Of the
border. IF tho Mexican government is
relieved, Of all financial responsibility
it does not seem probable that the
authorities at Mexico City will be
spurred to greater activity in discour-
aging banditry. It is perhaps unfor-
tunate that this case did not go to the
point of direct governmental inter
|ventioD for jenkins release. AS it
stands the jenkins case is virtually
an inducement to kidnapping enter
prise below the Rio Grande.
