Salt Lake Tribune: Those wliu comment on (Nevada) Senator Jones' return to the republican barty be caue he conisders the silver question dead, and wlio !-av that "not even Mr. Biyau was a stouter defender of free silver e« linage than the sena tor from Nevada, "are in the thick darkness. Senator Jones was the champion of silver before Bryan ever heard of silver as au ecnomie or political question: ami.Tones was always for silver from the economic ptflnd in }Hint, while Bryan was for it from the poitieal standpoint solley: .Tones was for silver because he lielieved it to be good money: Bryan because he considered it bad (or flat) money, and, Bryan would have for any sort of flat money, as he was for greenbacks, while Jones was never a greenbaeker. So that while they were both for silver, they urged it from differentjmo tives and opposite standpoints Kansas City Star :^Th«£suggestion that congress shall undertake_an in vestigation of the Schely case should be prombptly rebuked. The country has had enough of the affair. ^Nothing is to be gained by a further exploitation of the personal preju dices of naval officers. The de mand for it can come only from violent partisans whom a fair ver dict would not satisfy. Unofrtunately, the publication of Maclay's grossly unfair history made an inquiry necesary. The court is constituted of three naval officers of higest rank and national reputation. Its personnel is satis factory to both sides. The judges have presided with scrupulous fair ness that even the Washintgon gos sip are baffled in attempting to pre dict the verdict. All evidence hav ing any bearing on the ca^e has been intruduced. Indeed, the only criticism of the court is that it has been too liberal. Attorneys have been allowed to thrash over the same detail time after time with different witnesses. The judges have preferred to let the hearing drag out to almost interminable length rather than risk the charge of suppressing evidence. The verdict of the court ought to be the final official word on the sub ject. Individuals may disagree "with it. Persons who have followed the testimony have aright to their own views. But the opinion of the thre admirals will justly stand as the decision of the government. No purpose of justice will be fur thered by conrgess taking the mat ter up. Only unreasonable pre judice rin suggest such a course. The country at large will not toler ate it. In addition to the four territories which are likely to seek admission to statehood at the approaching session of Congress, the island of PortRico, it is said, may also be an applicant. The presentation of her claims to President Rosevelt is as serted to be one of the objects of the population of Porto Ricans now traveling in this country. The population of Porto Rico is adequate so far as numbers are concerned, but the objections which are urged against the Porto Rico in a stronger degree. Not only are the Porto Ricans as a people illiterate beyond any tiling that at present exists in tihs country, but the masses are utterly unversed in matters per taining to government. This is their misfortune, not their fautlt, but it is a condition that cannot be ignored. Since the island came un der the folds of the American flag, •ohoos have been established. Others are probjected. The people are already taking part in the dircetion of local affairs. In ten or twenty years Porto Rico may be ripe for representative government. Her admission as a state at the present would invite disaster such as "befell South Carolina and other Southern states in the beginning"of the reconstruction'period.—Milwau Itee Evening Wisconisn.

The small bullet goes farther, and this is why the dangers of the woods have increased during the deer hunting season. A hunter may have a long stretch of country between himself and another seeker for game, but this does not put him out of danger from carelessness on the part of tbe other fellow. The fact is that anybody can be^safe jn tlie^woods when bullets are flying, and the*"longer the range of the rifles the more the risk of deer hunting. The annual casualty list of the deer season is so long, and is increaing so rapidly, that it would not be surprising in the course of time if sportsmen should take steps toward the enactment of a law re quiring the use of rifles of shorter range. But this is a matter for the sportsmen themselves although it will not lie long^before the increas ing settlement of the northern part of the state will compel more care on the part of hunters who are firing across country that is dotted with farms.

The surprise is the greater, liecause Seth Low is the president one of the leading literary instituitons in America a man wtth a large fortune, a scholar and a gen tleman, and would appear well in any circle and in any country. In other words, he is deemed a model man, —neither a poitician nor a par tisan,- and therefore the Britishers supposed that he would be the very last man that the masses in such a festering city as. New York would select as their chief magistrate. But he lias been chosen, to the joy of honest people everywhere. London has been long considering the important question of uniting it numerous municipalities in tne graud* municipality, but the tax payers had been deterred because tliey had heard that the manage ment of tli3 great city of New York, under the Tammany administra tion.had become so dreadful and so replusive that they feared so try the exjeriment in London from the ap prehension that a Tammany power would grow up iu England under one municipality. That fear is being disielled by the election of Seth Low, proving that when the people are thoroughly aroused they can be trusted to do right and act for the benefit of the the community. As the new mayor lias well said, "The victory is not the triumph of one man but of the whole people,.'1 A London journal thus crystalilzes tlie whole result: "It is the greatest blow yet struck at the most nefarious system qf or ganized, triumphant villiany ever foisted on a civilized community by a gang of corrupt blackmailers.'' —Millwaukee Evening Wiconsjm.

The Aniecrican delegation at the Pan American conference held iu the City of Mexico, gave the Mexicans a severe shock by their free and easy manner.

The ladies of the dele gation appeared at a swell function in shirt waist and street attire. The Mexicans feel that they have been insulted. Ex-President Graver' Cleveland condisiders himself_a great power in the politics of the counry, and there fore is moved to interfere in local politics since this retirement as President. He conceived the idea that Seymour the Democratic candi date for governor of New Jersey was a better man for the place than Murphy, the Republican candidate. So he concluded to support Seymour and wrote a short letter in his fa vor which was pulished far and wide. At that time the Republicans felt a^little uncertain as to whether they could cany New Jersey, this being an off year, and 7,500 was the largest majority they expected. The votes are now counted, and Murphy carries the state by over 14,000 ma jority agains Seymour. Cleveland is just now in the con dition of other fussy and ambitious politicians of going out to shear v. ool and coming back shorn. He jjs )a lghed at by the respectable peo ple of New Jersey, because he has /inoed^the'supreme folly of inter fering in"local elections.

In our suc cession of Presidents for over one hndred years we do not think that any of them have committed this indiscretion. But Cleveland is a thorough prartisan, and therefore he cannot appreciate what the statesman should do after his re tirement from the presidency. It is not fair to fasten Mr. Cleve lands' indiscretions upon the Demo cratic party of the United States, because previous Democratic Presi dents have exhibited a reticence and a delicacy in dealing with local poli tical contests, which prove that they recognized that the sentiment of the American people is almost unani mous against the interference of an ex-President in local political con tests.-—Milwaukee Evening Wiscon sin. THE PASSING OF BRYAN. Washington dispatch to the Chi cago Chronicle: In Nebraska Mr. Bryan's participation in the eani paign appears to have had no effect but to increase republican pluralities iu most of the districts of the state. The returns are regarded as a crush ing blow to Mr. Bryan and the ideas which he stands for. He went in to the campaign to save the state. He made a characteristic tour, which included all sections of Ne braska, speaking by day and by night, appealing to his erstwhile populistic followers to join him in crushing republican party. His atti tude really constituted a test not only of his personal influence with the voters of Nebraska, but of the vitality of issues of which he is the most conspicuous champion. Oma ha and Lincoln, the two big cities of Nebraska, did not follow the ex ample of the farming districts by giving increased republican ma jorities, but even their votefurnishes Mr. Bryan with little solace. The erstwhile democrat candidate presi dent, unwilling to admit that the central idea of his politican activity, 10 to 1, was dead issue and desiring to prove[to the millions of democrats who had demanded its permanent retirement that it is still very much alike, hoped to regain the support of those farmers of Nebraska was once constituted the popuilst party of that state. Mr. Bryan found that financial and economic vagaries, however effective they may be in the abstract, are not proof against substantial prosperity. The lesson of the Nebraska campaign is far reaching and cannot be misunder stood. Cole Younger has refused a posi tion on the Minneapolis police force.

Omaha Bee: A few years ago American students who wanted the best instruction in scientific bran ches crossed the Atlantic to aroll themselves in European universities. Now European studens are heading for America to learn the advances made in scientific work entering in American industrial activity.

Name Don't mairy a man to save him. On the reverse side of the card is a prayer. President Roosevelt has ordered that the White House stables shall be purged oi all dock tailed horses. This is a wholesome rebue to a bai' barous and ugly custom. To spoil the beauty of a naturally beautiful animal by depriving it of a means of protecting itself is more wanton cruelty. But President Roosevelt's prompt action will probably not have half the effect that King Ed ward's order prohibiting dock tailed animals from entering the corona tion processions will have. Lazy grooms and coachmen who would rather have their charges suffer, than bother with their long tails will probably have to yield to the ver dict of Edward VII. and President Roosevelt, one the social Moses and the other a homespun, humane American.
