Peory has Ig-nally failed In his splendid effort to reach the North role. These "sudden dashes" to that slippery and elongated fixture are becoming mo notonous In their dismal failure. The doughty commodore comes back with the stilted glory of having gotten the next closest to the role, but the elus ive magnet seems to have a repcllant force the closer one gets to It. And upon this hypothesis, the man who hall g4t equarely next to It, will be hurled Into space and his report with him, and an enuer world denied the story of fruition for which It bus been waiting these untold thousands Of years. Darn the Pole, anyway! There Is one comforting conclusion In all thla history of disastrous failure, and that Is, that when the apex la definitely located. If It ever Is, It will be at the core of another American possession. There Is a lot of satis faction In knowing that we shall be the owners of the Xorth role, on ac count of the extreme rarity of the thing, It has no duplicate on enrth, tf It exist at all. UNIVERSAL TROUBLE MAKERS. The man of Spain, and his breed the world over, Is. and has been, for centuries, a universal trouble-maker. The Latin Is never at peace with hlm elf nor with his fellows. And the Spanish element Is the liveliest and most Inveterate of them all. This, of course, In the political sense. Oo where one will, If he finds the caste, or re-caste, of the Spaniard, he real izes this truth: In the Philippines. In Cuba, In nny of the South Amerlcnn TepuMW, Mhjj.v.i;. that SpM'sh blood or Its kindred fluids prevail, there is trouble and bitterness and warfare. They cannot govern them selves and their attempts at govern ing others are always a farce. If not something Inconceivably worse. Culm ,g rt yn flortrln of their utter Incapacity for administration. Even under the negls of the most civilized and bearable condition of government on earth, they are prone to their rabid gnerrlla tactic and will not even try to abide by ordalnetl rub' of life and Its orderly control. It's In the blood and Irradlcable. o RECIPROCITY. REPUBLICAN DOCTRINE. CHILD LABOR REFORM. The National Child Uibor Commit tee announces that the third annual meeting of the committee and silled forces will be held In the city of Cin cinnati, Ohio, December IS-16, An un uually attractive program, Including addresses on vital phases of the child labor problem by speakers of nation al reputation, Is being arranged. This gal tiering will be Important. Repre sentatives from state and local com mittees will attend and one session will be devoted to an Interstate con ference of official representatives from four states In the Ohio Valley, to dis cuss the best methods of securing unity and better enforcement of child lalnir laws In that section. The committee also announces that during the past summer an arrange ment has been made with the Antl Chlld Slavery League of New York by which the League Is now merged with the National Committee. HUGHES-HEARST. As an Indication of the extreme Im portance of the New Tork election next Tuesday to the nation at large, It Is only necessary to observe the cvntrallxcd Interest of the press of thd country;. There! are dozens of, states holding elections on the same day, but they are almost Ignored In the concentrated and animated con cern directed upon the Empire State. Secretary Root's brilliant knock-out for Hearst at Syracuse has put the Democrats on all their various side steps, and the Internal dissensions will do the rest. An united Democracy In New Tork this year might have meant something to the detriment of Re publican prestige, but It Is only a question of the extent of the latter party's majorities now, and that Is what all men are eager to be In formed of. Mr. Bryan', long-deferred sop to the Hearst Interest fell as flat as Its "Yellow" objective will fall on the third day of next week, and after that, the country will breathe easier. The editor Teller In the that brcausn clproclty bv of abe T,no,-aster (WlO lue of Sept. 13. claims t.f the opposition to re- "t and -pat" tariff men oooooooooooooooooo O EDITORAL SALAD. 0 OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO We certainly ought not to annex any more outlying territory until we have trained up more experts at sitting on the lid. Secretary Taft might be needed for other duties. tapan Is mistaken In thinking she wishes her subjects here to have all the rights of American citizens. She has forgotten our colored citizens In Casey, 111., and In Atlnnta. o What they need! In the Murphy Hoist political vaudeville now on In New York Is a Henry DeVrles who can enact n:s nair noxen ainerem characters all at one unique performance. AMES C. CAUTFK tlwlarod that tho American people are nfllictoil with a passion for legislation amountinp almost to a diswwe. It U untli'iiiahlv true that tho average miml believe in tho possibility of It KM ED VINO EVERY EVIL BY STATUTORY ENACTMENT. That this idea is a hho and danger ous ono ail human experience attests. It is a significant, perhaps omi nous, evidence of the changes in tho popular idea of tho legislative function that there is a vastly increased rango of subject with which our statiinu now deal. They are becoming largely too largely, I think merely ADMINISTRATIVE AND REGULATIVE, estab lishing rules for the direction and control of biuunoas activities, draw ing lines of separation between that which ia and always was permissi ble and that which shall no longer bo so; establishing boards and com missions and providing for a scrutiny which more and more prios into affairs that once were supposed to pertain exclusively TO THE IN DIVIDUAL primarily interested. it it it All this is more or less irritating, for tho shrinkage in INDIVID UAL LIBERTY involved in it hurts. But it is folly to suppose that modern lifo can go on with its ever increasing complexity and legis lators bo silent When legislators aro considering a subject with which they may rightfully deal the temptation is strong upon them to go farther than is necessary or proper, but this is an infirmity of human nature. In tho summary of legislation from year to yoar there are many statutes which might well havo been omitted from consideration by tho legislatures that passed them. Of all tho bills introduced in any legislative body a comparatively small percentage Womo living enact ments, and of "these few ever really ENTER INTO THE LIFE of tho community. I do not close my eyes to the fact that wo cannot have a bewildering complexity in all our affairs and at tho samo time hare PERFECT SIMPLICITY in government. But in all thin turmoil tho whirl of machinery, governmental anil mechanical, the organization of labor and of capital, the throbbing of every pulse and the strain of it all to brain and to nerve what has become of the individual man? The development of the state and of tho institutions that collectively com-, pose it is steadily proceeding, BUT HOW ABOUT THE UNITS? The one thing that we ought all to work for is to prevent the oblitera tion of men.
