THE PROGRESSIVE CAUCUS.

It is meet that the Progressive Senators should have caucus The Republicans recently took time off to devote to discussion of party pro- gram for the next session of Congress. If they got no farther than agreeing upon officers to preside over the nations lawmakers when Congress convenes next D cember, at least something was accomplish ed The Democrats preferred to meet as a Ma tional Committee and talk about 1892 and national csmpaigl issues. It is apparent they made even less headway than their friends the enemy. Thus if Mir Norris MT Borah, MT. La Toilette, ct al, end ther oonvocation without doing more than making the Vekin ring, they at least following the mode and keeping pace with their fellows who upon occasion have been and will again be both friend and enemy

More than this they can hardly look for since the public as whole seems less than lukewarm to it as a leading issue for the national election If the Progressives really want issue which will produce not leader but many, and not few scattered supporters but capture them by legions, they should study the repeal of the Eighteenth Amendment But being more Norris minded and Borah- minded than progressive minded they hardly apt to take any such radical action that

CUTTING TEACHERS PAY POOR
 ECONOMY.

Answering the suggestions made in several States that reductions be made in the salaries of school teachers of reducing public expenditures, the National Education Association has issued a warning that such policy would be disastrous to the cause of education and against the best in- terests of public welfare. Its word of caution is timely. The salaries paid to school teachers, at best not commensurate with the stipends earned by members of other professions They are notor- iously underpaid when there is taken into consid- eration the expense and time required by them in qualifying for their calling. To lower the pay they receive would inevitably drive out many of the higher class teachers either into communities who do not participate in the reductions, into some other line of work
 The calber of the whole profession would be lowered and the schools of the country necessarily suffer. In recent years, standards of teaching re- qurements have been raised perceptibly, and this has been accompanied by comparable lifting of the standards of work in the schools But the stan dard of salaries has not kept pace. Thus to lower salaries now would be wholly unjust putting bur- den on those who are least able to stand it.

To "The World"
(New York Herald-Tribune. )

As the adversary of The World" in many hard. fought political battles salute its courage and depore it's passing. The city can badly afford to lose alike the point of view which it expressed and the spirit which it's staff displayed to the last hour.
 To every one without the World" office as within it seemed though it must continue. There was the same conflict of emotions the same un- reality that one feels before the laundering of a ship. By every sign fatal blow had been struck and the end could not be far away. But great newspaper has life of it's own. Not in vain had generations of human beings yielded their devo- tion and bent their energy and wills to its up- building So stanch vessel could not go down.
 Workers, readers, rivals watched anxiously hope fully Rescue must come from quarter There were surely idealists with a Presidential election in sight to help, Rarely has the city witnessed so prolonged and poignant a suspense, SO dramatic a midnight ending.
 Looking backward it is possible to feel that the result inevitable From the day that the late Joseph Pulitzer sought to reach forward through the years and control with his dead hand the poli- cies and management of his properties some such fate was knocking at the door. For the scene shifts
 life moves on. Here in America the current of change in social conditions in political philosophy in business practice, with appalling swiftness It was madness and folly for the strange, powerful man who made "The World" to believe that he could stem such stream canalize it down the years
 Since the continuation of the World" news papers by their old staffs in their old form was impossible their purchase by the Scripps- Howard interests is a matter of general congratuation Under MT Roy Towards alert direction "The Tele- gram" has already become vigorous force in the AS "The World-Telegram" it is certain to take on new wisdom and power In many re- spects the policies of the two organizations run parallel By contrast, it is easy to think of des- tinations for the Pulitzer journals which would  that much of the old World" spirit will live its embodiment To the new World Telegram" wish long life and all suc- cess.

Proving a Conspiracy.
(New York Times.)

Most people laughed merely wondered when reading of the wicked political conspiracy which Representative McFadden disclosed in all its horrid details, on Wednesday. He started with the fact that the resolution to investigate Tammany was defeated at Albany by the vote of two Republican State Senators To the ordinary mind this result. sad as it was appeared capable of a simple and natural explanation But the penetrating gaze Of the Chairman of the House Committee on Banking and Currency went below the surface and discovered whole chain of discriminating circumstances Three on vacation. This showed that he felt secure could have to him only through the Repub- lican boss of Westchester County. But return favor exacted TOT the delivery of the votes of the, two WestcheSter Senators. What was it? Ob- viously-or at least it is obvious to Representative McFadden-the delivery of the votes of two Demo- cratis United States Senators at Washington in favor of the nomination of MT. Eugene Meyer to be Governor of the Reserve Board.
 This might have seemed too ridiculousy round- about and fantastic to be noticed by the Senate Yet both Senator Wagner and Senator Copeland rose soemny to brand" as unfounded, false malic-
 ous, infamous. and all the rest of the Senatorial vocabulary the insinuatonS made by Representative McFadden. He, of course will eagerly seize upon these denunciatons further evidence that he had laid bare the facts. When Shakespeare declared that to people who jealous" trifles light as air are strong confirmation as proofs of Holy Writ. he could not have known the susceptibilities and capacities in that line of the modern politician To him nothing important can happen without his at once Interpreting 1t as mysterious deal" or plot" The more improbable the thing is the surer he is that he has found the truth at the bottom of the we'll

 This is the last appearance of "The World" it's readers have known it. The ownership of the newspaper has passed from the heirs of Joseph Pulitzer to the publishers of the Scripps- Howard chain of newspapers With this sale the responsi- billty of the present editorial direction comes to an end.

 We have striven, subject to the limita- tions of our ability and of ordinary human frailty, to carry out the solemn injunction of the founder that The World" should be conducted "as public institution for motives higher than mere gain." and at all times "in spirit of independence" We be- ueve that the readers of "The World" have shown their faith in the genuineness of this purpose by the loyalty with which they have supported the paper.
