If
WENT WITH ROOSEVELT
POWER OP CIVIL SERVICE COMMIS
SION NO LONGER FELT.
Estimate of an cx-Oregonlan. Man on
Vice-President' Aggressiveness
Proved Correct.
WASHINGTON. April 2. (Staff Corre
spondence.) Mr. Frank A. Carle, for sev
eral years connected TVlth The Oregonlan,
Tvas a Washington correspondent 12 years
ago. I vras associated with him and re
member his expression anent the appoint
ment of Theodore .Roosevelt to be. -Civil
Service Commissioner. "Since its crea
tion," said Mr. Carle, "the Civil Service
Commission has been considered as a
fifth -wheel to the Governmental coach.
It will be so no longer. With Rbose
velt as one of the Commissioners it means
that the Commission will take Its place
and perform the functions for which
it was created, otherwise Roosevelt will
revolve recklessly in the midst ol the
machinery- This was true and events
ehowed that 3Ir. Carle knew the man
he was writing about quite thoroughly.
Por eight years the Civil Service Commis
sion was something. For eight years
Roosevelt attempted and did carry out the
law. F05. eight years he was the terror
of the spoilsmen and evil-doers wherever
they were attempting to defeat the in
- tent and spirit of the civil service law.
For four years he made Republican offi
cials uncomfortable, then for four more
years he was the terror of those Demo
crats who tried to evade the law and
make appointments regardless of the law.
Previous to his appointment the Civn
Service Commission amounted to very lit
tle. Whenever there were gross violations
of the law which had to be heeded some
action was taken, but the commission
never made a business of finding out
what was going and seeing that politicians
did not Ignore the law in securing the
appointments of favorites. For eight
years under Roosevelt the Commission
was a part of the Government. Neither
Harrison nor Cleveland cared to risk hav
ing that vigorous character "revolve reck
lessly amidst the machinery," and forced
thalr officers to obey the law, and to
elve heed to the Commission.
Xow in Eclipse.
Since the departure of Roosevelt the Clv-
A Service Commission has heen In eclipse.
There have been reasons for this. The
Spanish War attracted the minds of peo
ple away from the mere matter of office
holding, although It increased the num
ber of office-seekers. The war legislation
provided for the appointment of many ad
ditional clerks, especially in the War De
partment, and this legislation did not spe
cify that these clerks were to be "classi
fied." That meant that they were not to
be appointed under civil service rules and
they were simply "spoils." These cleiks
are for the most part still holding offic'e.
Then there were many appointees under
other provisions of law, and in providing
for these appointees considerable care
I has been taken not to "classify" them,
' and the recommendation of Senators and
Representatives has been effective. The
appointments made in the free rural de
livery service are not made through the
Civil Service Commission, nor are the
clerks of the special commissions and
boards that have been created so made.
This has been one reason why th'e Civil
Service Commission has not been promi
nent. Another Is that the Commissioners
have no desire to make it prominent. They
have been content to lraw salaries and
; go through the routine of their offices
I and let the work move along without fric-
tion. You cannot interfere with office-
I seekers and men seeking patronage wlth-
out causing friction. The Commissioners
-who have been in office for some years
are not looking for friction. They are
good men And no doubt useful men. They.
have performed their duties well up to a
certain point. But they have not been
men "looking for trouble." That's where
they differ from Roosevelt. I do not de
Eire to Intimate that these officers have
not done their duty, but merely that there
has been no extra effort to make the
Civil Service Commission and Its work
too prominent.
There Hare Been Criticisms.
Our present Administration has been
criticised by civil service reformers and
organizations whose object is good gov
ernment. Attention has been called to
alleged violations of the law, but no seri
ous charges bave been made or proven.
The fact is that wherever there have
been violations they bave been of the
small, plcayunlsh sort, performed by
some over-zealous Republican who thinks
he is the ''whole thing" because he has
been appointed to some office. But the
civil service reformers, the good govern
ment people, and all that class who make
a. specialty of looking after men "who are
not carrying out the spirit of the law,
bave been raising a very great to do about
the appointment of ex-Representative
Rodenberg, of Illinois, to be Civil Service
Commissioner. Rodenberg belongs to the
Grosvenor class of statesmen. He voted
with Grosvenor and others to cut off the
appropriation for the Civil Service Com
mission. That has become quite a prom
inent pastime with anti-civil service men
in Congress. They vote in committee of
the whole, where no record is made, to
strike out the appropriation for the Com
mission In the appropriation bill. Then,
when the vote Is taken In the House
where the -vote,, is recorded, the cowards
turn tall and run., 0jui,onae ol the bold
er antagonists of the civil service law
vote their convictions. Rodenberg is one
of those. He voted to strike out the ap
propriation and had his vote recorded. He
is now a member of a Commission which
be tried to kill by cutting off the salaries
and expenses. He Is holding an office, tbe
salary of which would not have been paid
had his view prevailed while he was a'
member of Congress.
Enforcement of the Law.
It may turn out that Mr. Rodenberg
will be very vigorous In the enforcement
of the law: If It should transpire that
Hon. Blnger Hermann becomes Civil Ser
vice Commissioner with Mr. Rodenberg,
these two gentlemen might take it into
their heads to make a record for them
selves and vigorously enforce "every fea
ture of the law, even If it was obnoxious
in certain quarters. There Is an old story
that unpopular laws are sometimes re
pealed when they are enforced to the let
ter. If the-Tcivll service law is unpopular
when strictly carried out, then Congress
would have an opportunity to repeal It If
it so desired. The big effort In that di
rection was made during the 55th Con
gress. At that time It looked as if the law
might be materially amended in the
House, although no disposition was shown
in the Senate to make any changes. The
House found itself divided into three
-factions, however, the Democrats de
manding repeal outright, about half of
the Republicans seeking to have the law
amended, which would make It easier to
secure appointments, while the other fac
tion was against any repeal whatever, and
favored enlarging the scope of the law
so as to include more offices and to re
move appointments further and further
from political Influence. Now, as" a mat
ter of fact, the law will never be repealed.
No Congress would dare to throw down
the doors, leaving all the appointments of
the Government absolutely in control of
an Administration, which would have the
power to make a. clean sweep of all men
in office. It is very doubtful if the law
could be amended, unless It is to improve
it rather than make it nugatory. Per
haps with a new Commission we might
see action taken looking to popularizing
the civil service. Mr. Rodenberg and Mr.
Hermann would have a great opportunity,
should Mr. Hermann be appointed.
The Case of Fnnston.
There is no doubt that the Administra
tion was very glad to have the oppor
tunity to make Frederick Funston a
Brlgadier-G-eneral. From all I could
gather about the War Department I am
inclined to think that this was more than
was -there considered this officer has
earned in the Philippines. President Mc
Klnley was very likely from the first to
take heed, however, of the demand, al
most universal, that a man like Funston,
who risked his life, and by subtle strata
egy captured the leader of the Philippine
rebellion, should receive adequate recog
nition. I heard some men In the
War Department talking about Fred
Funston, and they declared that he was
unfit for a Brlgadler-Genoral. "He makes
a fairly good scout," one of the most
prominent officers of the Army said, ''and
his exploit was a good piece of detective
work, but that don't fit him to be a Brigadier-General.
The Army of the future
Is to be made up of officers who can edu
cate the Army. Funston is not one of
that kind.",. Now, that sounds all right,
but at the same time this very officer had
had a great deal to do with making
Funston a Brigadier-General of Volun
teers. If he is incompetent to be
made a Brigadier-General of the Regular
Army, then he should not nave received
his commission in the volunteer service.
But this Is not true. Funston was a good
soldier as Colonel' of the Twentieth Kan
sas. His Kansas soldiers adore him. He
brought them to a good state of efficiency
and trained them for the very good service
that they did in the Philippines. His sol
dierly qualities were recognized by the
officers under whom he served, who rec
ommended that he be made a Brigadier
General of Volunteers, a place that he
has held with a great deal of credit for
some time. The people of the country
would jiot allow an exploit like the cap
ture of Agulnalde to go unrewarded with
out making a vigorous protest. The
President will never be Influenced by the
clamor of Regular Army officers that .a
young volunteer like Funston should not
be recognized.
Some Comparisons.
If Funston had not been made a Brigadier-General
it would have caused un
pleasant comparisons between his serv
ices and those of young J. Franklin Bell,
Dr. Leonard Wood and Frederick D.
Grant. All of these men were among the
first selected to be Brigadier-Generals un
der the Army reorganization law. Wood
had accomplished some good in Cuba.
Grant had performed his duties in a slow,
perfunctory way In the Philippines, but
he was the son of a great soldier, and of
an ex-President of the United States. J.
Franklin Bell led his regiment-up through
Northern Luzon, making a good record.
He has made a very good offi
cer as Brigadier-General of Vol
unteers, but his selection as a
Brigadier-General of the Regular
Army was nowhere us meritorious as that
of Funston, who had accomplished more
as a Colonel of the Kansas regiment than
Bell did as Colonel of his regiment. Both
Bell and Wood ,wjll serve as ueneral of
ficers for nearly 20 years, Funston would
have seven years longer, because he Is
that much younger than either of them.
There are a number of Army officers In,
Washington who knew Funston very well
In the Philippines, and they speak of him
In the hignest terms. They do not seem
to share the jealousy of some others who
have taken particular pains to decry his.
exploit and belittle his achievement.
Popular "With His Superiors.
Several officers here were telling stories
about Funston and one of them said that
when he was under General MacArthur In
Northern Luzon, and still Colonel of the
Twentieth Kansas, he came into head
quarters one tiay and said. In a quiet way:
"General MacArthur, I do not want to
make a kick on anything, and am here to
make a brief statement of the conditions
which exist in my regiment, and make
suggestions as to what would remedy
them." He then went on giving a suc
cinct account of the situation and making
suggestions which would improve the
service. Some, things he wanted, which
he told the General very frankly. Mac
Arthur heard, him through' and granted
his every request" This officer said that
Funston presented his case In a soldierly
manner, and that 'he was a. soldier
through and through. Other Colonels- of'
regiments came In swaggering and making
complaints, registering kicks, and were
as far from the quiet, modest little Kansas
Colonel as anything could be Imagined.
They made no impression on General
MacArthur, who was a good deal, of a
soldier. The remarks of nearly every man
that I have met who served In the Phil
ippines seem to be commendatory of
Funston:1
I knew General Funston's father quite
well when he was a Representative from
Kansas in the 51st Congress. He was to
tally unlike his son. Young Fred Funston
is a quiet, modest and almost a meek in
dividual. The elder Funston was a- giant
in size, and he had a voice 'like the Bull
of Bashan. He .could roar so loud that the
hall' of the House ' of Representatives
would not contain his voice, but it would
reverberate out into the rotunda and the
dome of the Capitol. He was a very hard
worker, and interested himself thoroughly
in matters of legislation. No one would
take the ex-Congressman and the Gen
eral to be any- relation whatever. My
Army friends saV that General Funston
has no thought of fear. He is a man that
likes to do dramatic things, such as this
capture of Agulnaldo, and such as leading
his regiment across a river, under the fire
of the enemy, in order to win a victory
and fame. While it Is no doubt true that
he may not be a good office soldier, as a
Brigadier-General he will probably be a
splendid officer in the field as long as
there is work to do.

BEET-SIMON INCREASE
IT 'WAS TWO-THIRDS OF WORLD'S
SUPPLY LAST YEAR.
Consnmptlo'h 01 Sngar Eight Times
Greater Now Than It Was '
Sixty Years Ago.
WASHINGTON, April o The rapidly
increasing share of the world's sugar con
sumption, which Is supplied from sugar
beets, Is pointed out by anartlcle in the
Monthly Summary of Commerce and Fi
nance, Just Issued by the Treasury Bureau
of Statistics. - Under the head, "The
World's Sugar Crop of 1900.' It shows
that the vtotal beet-sugar production of
that year was 5,950,000 tons, and the cane
sugar crop 2,850,000 tons, more than two
thirds of the world's sugar supply being
thus produced from beets. -This state
ment Is followed, by a table showing the
cane and beetsugar production In each
decennial, year, beginning . with 1840, and
the percentage which these rival sugar
plants have in supplying the sugar con
sumption of the world.- This table shows
that In 1S40 beets supplied less than 5 per
cent of the world's sugar consumption;
by 1850 they supplied 14 per cent; by 1870,
34 per cent; by 1890, 63 per cent, and In
1S00, 67.71 per cent. The world's consump
tion of sugar in 1900 was 8,200,000 tons
The growth of sugar consumption Is
also shown in a striking -manner by this
table. In 1840 the total sugar crop of the
world was only 1,150,000 tons; In 1870, 2,416,
000 tons; in 1SP0, 5,702,000 tons, and In 1900,
8.S00.000 tons. , The world's population has
no more than doubled during the 60 years,
probably not so much; yet its consumption
of sugar is today fully eight times as'
much as in 1840.
The article In question begins with a
statement from the London Statist to
the effect that but a "single factory in
all the United Kingdom now refines cane
sugar, all the others being exclusively oc
cupied in preparing for the market the
raw product of the beet farms of Ger
many.. France, Austria and Russia.

beet-sugar crop for the year ending Sep

OPEN RIVER TO THE SEA.
Development of. Clearwater Country
Makes This Imperative.
,' :
. .t , Lewiston, Tribune.
The Clearwater country is rapidly .as
suming Intimate commercial relations with
Portland and. jCoast points. The special
farm products are required in the city
markets, mills arid factories. The busi
ness of ore reduction will in the near fu
ture become "a gigantic enterprise in
Portland and the Sound cities. Economic
freight facilities are the requisite of-these'
reduction plants. The -smelter required to
reduce our copper ores to matte will be
located near the mines, but the refineries
for the- treatment of the varied concen
trates of many districts-will be located in
the metropolises of the country at large.
The transportation of ore and fuel to
meet the demands of the mining Industry
will require not only water grades for
our railroads but an open river to the
sea. The cities of the lower country de
pend upon our products and we depend
upon the capital from these centers for
development. Already the capitalists of
these cities are becoming heavy Investors
In the gold, copper, silver and lead mines.
The mining Industry has waited long for
cheap transportation, and the fact that
the most Influential business men in the
Oregon and Washington commercial cen
ters have Invested In the mines Is very
encouraging. A common interest will
hasten the open river project. The devel
opment of these mines will create a
traffic demand tnat cannot be resisted.
With hundreds of great mines, thousands
of interested men of influence -will be
siege Congress not only from the cities of
the Northwest but from, every state in
the Union and demand- an open river to
the sea. The millions In the mines, in the
fields and the forests have been locked
up almost to the limit of their waiting.
The mines particularly are made non
productive by the present restrictions to
traffic. The low-grade ores of this dis
trict will give work to thousands of men
indefinitely when the key to this trans
portation Is produced. The gradual devel
opment of the mines has brought a full
realization of this fact, and the Influence
Is now under way that will give us an
open river In the near future.
MARRIAGE OP CATHOLICS.
Archbishop HoldM It Null and Void
If by Non-Catholics.
MONTREAL, April 7. Archbishop Bru
chesi today Issued a pastoral letter deal
ing with the judgment In the Delplt case,
which declared marriage of Catholics by
non-Catholics legal. "All unions," says
the Archbishop, "contracted with Invalid
ing impediment for which competent au
thority lias not granted dispensation, even
though civil power . looks upon such
unions as valid and legal, must be con
sidered as null and Invalid. This Is a
peril of doctrine that cannot be denied
without that faith be shipwrecked."
The archbishop concludes by pronounc
ing sentence of excommunication on all
those who disobey the laws of the church
concerning marriage, reserving the right
to himself and the vlcar-general to ab
solve thbse who become guilty of such a
fault.
-
Socialism and the. Church.
PORTLAND, April 6. (To the Editor.)
It Is asserted that' the laboring man
Is estranged from, the church, that the
church Is at fault, If It were what it
ought' to be the worklngman would be
with it, would extol and not condemn
it as he now doe's. This matter, because
of misapprehensions, constitutes ,-one of
the greatest problems of our times. If
the church is trespassing against the
common people, of whom the Lord has
made so many, It should not only stop
doing so, but apologize and speedily mend
its ways. If it Is neglecting, .as it is
alleged, social problems, which properly
belong to It, let the offense not be con
doned, but laid bare' without fear or
favor.
But a suggestion or two may not be"
out of place before the final verdict Is
rendered. It should be. remembered that
the church Is not a machine made to
operate everywhere -and upon everything
in .detail.
One eminent rector not long .since con
ceived .It to be the duty of the church
to take control of the dramshop, and so
'opened, or caused to be opened, atemper
unce dramshop. A bright woman of na
tional reputation, comes forward with the
proposition that the church shall win the
public by devoting. Itself, to the servant
girl question. She "wants "the preachers,
to stop preaching, about the life to come
and turn the churches into a training
'school for hired help,4 and "Official
boards" Into agencies to 'secure relief for
-.overburdened and well-nigh distracted
housekeepers. Mrs. Lease, while ha
ranguing a crowd In Portland some years
ago, pathetically exclaimed, "If I had the
power I would turn, every xshurch in the.
land Into a soup house for to feed the
poor," which sentiment was responded to
with a deafening shout. Brother Woolley
comes round and lampoons unmercifully
the church and preachers, because they
do noi turn themselves Into a third 'party
.prohibition corporation. This, scribe re
members vividly a time when the church
was roasted to th'e queen's tasfte, because
it did not espouse the flat money faa,
designed especially, It was declared, for,
"the good of the poor. And now comes
the most complacent declaration .that the
church cannot placate the masses until
It brings about an equality of social con.
dltlon between the rich and poor, vicious
and virtuous, Industrious. and idle, devot
ing Itself 'to the business of 'securing
employment for every man out of a job.
In considering all these features, which.
It may be asked, of the numerous- and
oftentimes antagonistic expedients' for tho
"abolition of poverty and other Inequalities,
so confidently put forth by their various
champions, shall the church adopt? 'Can
it safely indorse any of them without
being In danger of hurting the working
man's best interests, herself becoming
hopelessly tangled, and forfeiting ulti
mately the respect of all sensible people?
Is It not rather for the church to stand
upon a higher plane, inculcating char
acter in the individual, promoting indus
try, economy and patience, with rational
-and peaceful methods of adjusting diffi
culties everywhere? 'Js not the function,
of the church misapprehended by those
who would have her talcing a personal
hand in the various economic questions
arising from day to day? Is It not better
that the church, instead of turning her
places of worship into soup houses for the
multitude, should teach and inspire the
multitude to provide their own soup?
Moreover, might It npt. be a good
scheme for these theorists and censors
of the present work of the church to go
among the masses and organize a. church
which shall more fully .represent their
ideas? This ought to be easy since the
church, as they claim, is eschewed by
the multitude. Certainly according to
their own showing they would have ample
material to work upon. But these would
be progressive Individuals would most
likely find that a more equitable division
of the fruits of human Industry cannot
be secured by theories, for the reason
that the product of human Industry Is
portioned out by natural laws; and there
is no power in the church, or elsewhere,
to change these allotments other .than the
Individuals "themselves. In the world of
economics each man gets what belongs
to him. There may be accidents, fraud,
or bad legislation, temporarily affecting
things, but the condition of different in
dividuals is determined by themselves In
accordance with a law as ' inexorable as
that which holds 'the sun in itB course.
The much talked of wrongs of labor and
encroachments of capital are, therefore,
largely 'imaginary. C. E. CLINE.

How Colonel Llscum Fell.
The wife of Colonel Llscum, who was
killed in the famous charge, of the Ninth
Infantry at Tien Tsin, is really responsi
ble for the title of Frederick Palmer's
"The Ways of the Service," which Messrs.
Charles Scribner's Sons will publish ear
ly In April. A false report that Lls
cum had led his regiment into an Impos
sible position had been circulated. After
Palmer's return from the relief of Pekin,
Mrs. Llscum's card was sent up to his
room at the Nagasaki Hotel.
"Well, It'a hardly a pleasant task," he said
to a friend (an officer), "to tell as devotod a
wife aa Mrs. Llscum how her husband was
killed."
"Oh. she will be a good deal cooler than
you are," waa the response. "It's not the
way of the women of the service to weep on
an occasion like that. They keep their tears
for their rooms."
Mrs. Llscum's grief-stricken face told -what
she had suffered. Though her voice waa
quavering, she was composed, and her eyes
were dry.
"Tour 'husband's conduct could not have
been more courageous. His death waa such
as a sqldler would have chosen," Palmer- be
gan. "Of course, he was brave," she replied.
"That Is taken for granted with an officer,
of tho regular sprvice. wnat 1 came ashore
from the transport to ask you Is If my hus
band, who has been in the army from boy
hood, took men Into a flapk Are.,"
Palmer told her how he had heard a Brit
ish General assign her husband to a veritable
slaughter-pen, and he made plans of the field
showing her how coolly and scientifically the
Colonel had set about extricating himself
when ho fell.
"i knew It was impossible. General Mac
Arthur said It was," she replied. "But he
was not there, and you were. I wanted
the .facts. I knew they would show that my
husband had never led his regiment into a
cul 'de sac."
And then tears of pride glistened In Mrs.
Llscum's eyes.

Mr. Carnegie says there Is as much
chance for a poor boy now as there
ever was in this country. Perhaps Mr.
Carnegie has not heard of the proposi

It is safe to assert that Portland will

Dog- Sledgrlnp: In Siberia.
"Century.
To the music pf yelling natives and
howling dogs our picturesque caravan
started at a 'frightful speed, some of the
dogs every now and then slipping on the
smooth spots of the ice and sprawling on
their sides or backs while being dragged
along by others. Ahead were seen masses
of heaped-up Ice. I was asking myself,
"How Bhall we get over these?" when
In a moment we were In the midst of
them, the driver yelling .out their com

"Straight on!" while the dog leaders at
the head of the pack pricking up their
ears to catch the commands.of their mas
ters, turned now to the left, now to the
right, between the hummocks, while the
sledges jumped and danced over the huge
blocks. Gasping for breath, my feet bal
ancing In the air to prevent my legs from
getting broken, I could hardly tell how
this "mountain pass" was cleared. Soon
the whole caravan was on smooth Ice
again, and a new chain of Ice moun
tans rose in front of us, toward which
the dogs rushed, until a sharp voice in front
yelled "Stop! Stop!" A sledge had been
smashed and the load scattered about. I
became nervous, but the natives, as tran
quil as if nothing had happened, repaired
the sledge, making a hole here and there
by means of a primitive drill, and tying
together the broken parts with thong3 of
leather, while other natives with axes and
Iron-pointed poles cut out a way between
the Ice hummocks, and, after a little more
than half nn hour the caravan was again
on Its way.
Toward noon we were swept by a heavy
snowstorm, but the Ice became smoother,
and the dogs ran onward with great
speed. Only once we took a short rest,
sitting down in a circle on the ice and
regaling ourselves with frozen fish, which
the dogs shared. In places where the
wind had. swept away the snow, the crys
tallized salt, precipitated from the ice by
the cold, made the sledging very heavy.
As we neared the mainland In the after
noon the snowstorm ceased. To the south
east and south extended a mountain
chain, stooping abruptly to the sea, di
minishing in height to the west.
