Democracy and the South.
Southern 'democrat! profess to aee
In th present predicament of their
party an opportunity for southern
leadership and possibly for a southern
man as the party's nominee for presi
dent in 1912. Writing in his Unci
Remus' Magatlne, Jullen Harris, son
of the lata Joel Chandler Harris, has
this to say: ,
If Watson enters th democratic party,
mimi hi spleen, and take the am high
ground, h will be a power beyond dis
puU: Added to this. If h will work In
constructive aplrlt and he has not mad a
mark for this h will be a tower of
strength. If Mr. Watson stands ready to

It is Impossible to tell Just how

tn rKht 0f. an observation from out
side the breastworks. And so far as
meeting the qualification of dropping
hla spleen, to which Mr. Harris refers,
what would Tom Watson be without
his spleen? It Is our guess that demo
crats In neither the north nor the
south will give any serious thought to
supplanting W. -'J. Bryan with Tom
Wataon.
It baa been a long time since the
democratic party gained a national
victory and a longer time since It had
a presidential nominee from the south,
and yet the south naa continued to
rote the ticket straignt, from tradi
tion, rather than conviction. The
south never was a strong Bryan terri
tory and three futile experiences with
the Nebraskan has driven it further
4
in the direction of its natural con
servatism, so that It scarcely seems
possible that it would now take up
with a leader more radical than Bryan,
merely because he is a southern man
But before any definite estimates may
be formed as to the next democratic
header, it will be necessary, to await
the outcome, of some fall elections to

But it is well, at least, that the

necessity of some 'definite action to
prevent peculations from within. The

average of $7,000,000 a year, J$ cer-

awakening, and wnen one considers

John G. Carlisle.
The death of John Q. Carlisle at the
age of TS marks the passing of another
of the old-line democrats who, with
ftrnver Cleveland. SDurned the new
democracy under Mr. pryan and went
out 0f active politics rather than yield
to Its claim for support. During the
first Bryan campaign in 1896 Mr
Carlisle spoke In bis native state of
Kentucky for Palmer and Buckner,
the gold democrats candidates for
president and vice president, and waa
once or twice assaulted by excited
partisans. His state . divided its elec
toral vote, twelve for McKlnley and
one for Bryan. Mr. Carlisle soon after
removed from Kentucky to New York
City, influenced, it is said, by the treat
ment his own people had accorded
him for his stand against what ho re
garded as false democracy.
The publlo career of John O. Car
lisle began in 1859 as a member of the
Kentucky legislature , ana terminated
lands second administration, in tne
meantime ne naa servea nis state in
the national house and senate and was
three times speaker of the house. In
some respects ne nas oeen ranxea as
the greatest speaker the house ever
had. A man of powerful natural abil
Uy, he waa alao a profound atudent of
affairs and men, with a wonderful
1 capacity for work. His commanding
leadership gave him prestige and In
fluenco aa speaker, which few, If any,
who went before or have como after
1 Mr. Carlisle came from the lips of his
colleague, Senator Blackburn of Ken
tucky, who said:
"Carlisle is entitled to mighty little
credit for what he has done In the
world He has all the wisdom of the
anclenta and the moderns rolled to
gether. To say great things better
than anybody else could say them, he
baa but to open his mouth. That isn't
the result of. work; he wss born that
way."
Senator Carlisle's selection by Presi
dent Cleveland for the treasury port
folio was at the time exceptionally
DODular. for his long study of the
tariff and financial subjects bad given
hhn an intuitive grasp of fiscal affairs.
The' only objection came from the east
and that was based only upon the fear
that a man from west of the Allegheny
mountains was not fitted for such a
position, a delusion soon dissipated.
He was always a great' lawyer and,
long before acquiring his distin
guished practice in New York. In later
years, he had built up the largest
clientele In Kentucky. He was one of
the great men the. Blue Grass state
has given to the nation.
That Tail -End Resolution.
The effort to magnify the tail-end
resolution presented by Congressman
Norrls in the closing confusion of the
republican state convention and de
clared carried by the chairman In
spite of vigorous demanda for a roll
call is like an attempt to 'make a
mountain out of a molehill. The res
olution was never properly presented
nor really passed. Two-thirds of the
delegates had left the. hair and even
with the remnants of the packed gal
leries joining in the chorus the chair
man had to hesitate as to which side
had yelled loudest.
Aside from all that, however, the
tail-end resolution was entirely -out of
order. At the outset the convention
had by unanimous vote ordered all
resolutions to go to the resolutions
committee without reading, and this
resolution should have been ruled out
by the chairman just as in the demo
cratic convention at Grand Island the
chairman had ruled out of order reso
lutions offered on the floor without
being reported back from the reeolu
tlons committee. If it is suggested
that no point of order waa raised the
answer is that the chairman had only
a moment before on his own initiative
ruled out of order a motion to table
under pretext that it would carry with
It the whole platform as reported by
the resolutions committee.
If. the- voters are fully informed of
the circumstances surrounding the
tall-end resolution, they will give It the
weight that belongs to it.
Wireless Aid to Justice. .,
The capture of Dr. Crlppen and his
woman companion as tne suspects In
the murder of the doctor's wife' makes
It evident that we shall hereafter have
to Include wireless telegraphy among
the agencies employed for the appre
hension of persons suspected Of crime.
But for-the use of this system by the
captain of the vessel on which the

treal, It is Impossible to say whrn the

The captain used the wireless to flash
back to London hla suspicions that the

the London police to dispatch an offl

In time to make the arrest.
This wonderful system of communl
cation is sure to play an Important part
from now on in running down . crim
inals and satisfying the ends of Jus
tlce. It thus assumes an aspect of new
and far greater value than even Its
commercial Importance has given It.
It circumscribes the boundaries of the
world when it comes to giving safety
to the fugitive and it ought to have
the effect of discouraging crime, espe
cially where persons count on fleeing
to a foreign country and covering up
their tracks, or, if captured, of hiding
behind the technicalities of interna
tional law. Added to the splendid
modern , system of identification in
vogue at most porta, It multiplies the
chances of capture, affording the
quickest possible action to be taken
where there is the least suspicion.
A Doable Back-Acting Victory.
' According to the Interpretation put
on It down at Lincoln the ruling of
the State Railway commission extend
lng the slx-for-a-quarter area of atreet
car service to Include the suburbs is a
double back-acting victory for the peo
pie. The railway commission has
ruled formally that the inhabitants of
Havelock are equally entftled to the
same atreet car facilities as the Inhab
itants of Lincoln, but Inasmuch as the
reduced fare for Lincoln was prooured
on the showing of greater traffic and
lower proportionate cost of operation
the present decision is taken to fore
shadow eventual 'abolition of the slx-
for-a-quarter fare altogether, but still
leaving Havelock and Lincoln on the
same footing. '
Those on the Inside know that the
contention over street car fare in Lin
coin in its Inception was simply one
phase of the fight between two atreet
car companies, each trying to get the
better of the other even by forcing
concessions to the public. Since the
consolidation and merger of these two
former warring publlo service corpor
ations the whole face of the street
railway situation at Lincoln has been
changed and the desire of the owners
and promoters to favor the public has
been thoroughly stifled. When the
experiment shall have been carried on
a little longer the move will doubtless
be to ask the railway commission to
rescind the slx-for-a-quarter order,
which at this distance, therefore, looks'
more like a fain in form than in sub
stance.

A court of Inquiry will try to find out
how th Fortress Monroe accident occurred.
Until It concludes Its investigation all Is

Matters of Iatrt Oa an aok
of tb Firing X.la Ql from
fh Army aad Vary Kegieter.
It apra to hav ben entirely prema
ture to hav announced, upon th author
ity of the secretary of war, that there would
be no examination of civilian this year for
appointment as second lieutenant of th
army. Such an examination was to occur in
August, but It appeared that there was
likely to be Insufficient vacancies to maHa
the examination worth while notwithstand
ing, th fart that ther had been som
tentative designations of candidates to en
ter the competition. Ther are HO name
on th Hat and If It Is decided to hav th
examination It I probable that not more
than forty or fifty of them will b auth-1
orfzed to appr befor th board. Inasmuch
as It looks as if there would b only ten
or twelve vacancies In th grad of second
lleiftpnant of Infantry, cavadry and field
rtlltery. Th fnal decision now that th
question ' has been reopened will depend
somewhat upon th examination of enlisted
men,
Th War department lias ben advised of
the second trial of Chaplain John B. Pal
lam, Twelfth Infantry. That offloor was
recently brought befor an army court In
th Philippine for criticising Captain F.
B. Wlckhim, Twelfth Infantry, for What
th army chaplain regarded aa a fallur
to Intervene In a disturbance In th quar
ters of Lieutenant Colonel R. F. Ames,
Twelfth Infantry, which trouble led to th
ulctde of Second Lieutenant C. M. Janney
of the same regiment. Chaplain Dallam
used strong language In addressing Cap
tain Wlckham and subquently repeated his
alllualons of an uncomplimentary natur In
an official communication. H waa sen
tenced to be reprimanded and General
Duvali Imposed this In vigorous term.
Whereupon Chaplain Dallam Indulged In a
newspaper statement In which h said,
among other things, "I shall do my pro
fessional duty undeterred by any authority
under the sun, and entirely regardleaa of
rank' and without respect of person. If
this 1 Inconsistent with my position a an
officer, let the military authorities decide, "
which th . military authorities nromDtlr
proceeded to do. It is not known what
action was taken by th court at Manila.
Chaplain Dalla-n presented himself bfor
thl second court after a period of observa
tion and treatment in th division hospital
at Manila.
The general order prescribing regular
physlcal exercise and an annual physical
test for officers of th army ha been ap
proved by General Wood and th aotlngj
secretary of war and will be issued early
In the coming week. Th order Imposes no
excessive conditions 'upon th personnel
and contains no provision which ar likely
to meet with adver comment. The order
Is divided Into two parts, one relating- to
the regular physical exerol and the other
to the annual test. 'The original draft' of
this order contemplated dally ride or walks
of prescribed distances within stipulated
period. It waa found upon a practical
trying out of uoh a requirement that It
was not posulbla to establish any such
regulation, Accordingly, th post com
mander I to be held responsible for main
taining the physical fitness on th part of
th officers attached to his command, the
Idea -being to maintain a physical condition
so that the Officer may take th field under
war conditions at all time. The mean
and 1 methods by which this Individual ef
ficiency may be preserved are left to th
discretion of the post commander. Th re
qulrementa of the annual physical teat ar
practically th same as thoe which hav
hitherto existed. Officers on duty In the
tropics will b- subjected to a teat which
I two-thirds that of the condition of th
test at home station. All general officers
are excused from the annual teat and from
th physical examination. . Department
commanders are required to personally
conduct at least one riding test In their
department, but not as participant. An
important change In tb conditions la that
th annual riding teat will take plao at
th post wtr offioer ar stationed, o far
as practicable, by which arrangement there
will be a savin in mileage, and offioers
will be permitted to rid their own mount.
Officers of th coast artillery may tak tb
annual test by either walking or rlddng.
The quartermaster general of th army
will make an Inspection trip to th two
remount depots at Fort Keough and Fort
Reno. Great progress has been made dur
ing the administration of Oensral Alsshlr
In the development of horses for miliary
. Considerable interest la manifested in
th product of th remount depots through
out the mounted foro,' and General Al
shir has been deriving som valuable ug
gestion from offioer of cavalry and field
artillery, and especially from th offioers
on duty at th mounted aervlo school at
Fort Riley. Brigadier General F. K.
Ward, U. 8. Army, who la tn oommand at
that post, baa reported that that lnstlta

It 1 estimated that th school will n4

authorities of th school believe that fif
teen t or ryar-oid Virginia horse should
b allowed from th remount depot to' be
selected for school work, and that aa many
western horns b selected from th Dia

lng for thes two types is with th purpo
of Instruction In th method of handling
the thoroughbred and th western horses,
It I also desired to select from th

any breed that might max jumper. A
large horse Is needed because all th stu
dent offioer rid th jumper In daily ro
tation, and many of th officers ar heavy
men. The school authorities Insist that
special car I required in the selection of
horse for the school, as th Instruction
of th officers depend on th kind of ani

to show results aa soon aa posslbl without
putting too many difficulties In th way
