Jeffersonian Simplicity ?
There is a great deal of talk about
di-tiKM ratic simplicity at the forthcoming
Inauguration, and especially arc the ref-1
i fences fre.ut. nt to Jeffersonian simplicity.
As a matter of fact Jefferson was an
aristocrat, and this statement is not to
<^o?v? to titul !rtf ftp ft ttic from the honor
duo J< fTerson as a writer on the theory
of equal chan < s for all men. or equal
rights before the courts, or hc a brilliant
Bnii sincere popular leader. Hut Jefferson
was an aristocrat and a man of luxurious
habits, though of intellectual industry.
a combination frequently found ir.
men of high Intellect.
Jefferson lived in a tine house in splendid
surroundings. He owned line paintings
and statues, and used the finest fur-'
niture of the time, the tinest china and
the tinest silver tableware. lie owned
blooded horses, negro slaves and fertile
lands. He had entry to the most exclusive
social circles in Virginia and elsewhere.
The difference between his standard
of living and that of a "poor white"
of his period was greater than the living
difference between a rich man and a poor
man today. Tittle has a "hazening" effect
on class distinctions as those distinctions
were observed bv our ancestors.
In the section of the country in which
Washington stands today pioneer conditions
itad been long outgrown a century
ago. and class distinctions based on family
and wealth were harder to break
through then than they are now. The
people of these parts a hundred years
ago were much closer to the Knglislt idea
of class of that period than we are to the
Knglish idea of class today.
One of the things constantly cropping
_? . .
u|> is the r? ference to Jefferson's inauguration
and hi* simple horseback ride from
i:is hoarding house to the Capitol. Jefferson
was stopping at one of the expensive
hosteiries of the young capital-as much
difference separating it from the usual
drovers' tavern as separates the tall hotel
with oriental rugs and liveried bellhops
from the plain commercial house today?
and the simple horseback ride is a myth.
That story had its origin in a book of
travels written by an Englishman?John
Davis of Salisbury, lie called his book
"Travels of Four Years and a Half in the
Fiuted States of America During 17*.tXli'.h-lsni
and The following extia't
from Davis* book contains the
h,>r*ehack-r!de story, which is refuted by
numerous current accounts of the inauguration
of President Jefferson:
" The city of Washington was now the
center of attraction for the nation. Multitudes
(locked to it in different directions
to hear the inaugural speech of Mr. Jefferson.
Of this general enthusiasm I was
not without niv share. Mr. Jefferson's
notes on Virginia was the book that tirst
taught me to think, and my heart now
beat with a desire to hear the accents of
wisdom fall from the tongue of that man
whose |>en bad engrafted much truth on
my mind. I therefore departed for the
city of Washington, passing through, in
my way to it, Philadelphia and Baltimore.
l,et me now come to the object
of my journey to Washington. The
oliteness of a member from Virginia
procured me a convenient seat in the
apUol and an hour after Air. Jefferson
?i!teie?J the house, when the august as.-einb:y
of American senators rose to reive
him. He came, however, to the
isousc without ostentation. His dress was
of plain cloth and he rode on horseback
t<> the Capitol without a single guard, or
< icii servant in his train, dismounted
vviihcut assistance and hitched the bridle
of his horse to the palisades."
The facts are that Air. Jefferson walked
lrotn his hoarding house?Conrad's?on
New Jersey avenue to the Capitol, es
oi led on one side by Samuel Dexter of
Massachusetts. Secretary of the Treasury,
and on the other by Benjamin Stoddert
of .Maryland, Secretary of the Navy, and
accompanied by an honor guard of a
battalion of militia. An Alexandria militia
battery tired a salute In ills honor.
A great parade in those days was not
held, not because of any leaning toward
simplicity but because of the obstacles
to such an undertaking. Such streets as
Washington had then were roads which
in any part of the country today would
cause the farmers to form a road improvement
association. Travel between
cities was by schooner or chaise or coach,
on horseback, or afoot. The cumulation of
the country was thin, and a ten-mile trip
took more time and cost more money than
a hundred-mile trip in a parlor car costs
today. It was harder to get a crowd of
a thousand Americans together at an inauguration
in Jefferson's time than for a
hundred thousand to get together now.
It is a reasonable belief thai in Jefferson's
time every American ? especially
every democrat?wanted to attend the inaugural
ceremonies. But the hardships,
the delays and the cost of traveling were
too great, and a small crowd would have

N'o Mexican town can tell when conditions
will call on it to be the next to

depression.

New York and Reform.
"Tim" Sullivan is in a sanatorium, no
longer able to manage his affairs, and
ns election to the next House will be
canceled.
\\ hy is not this a good time for New
\ork democrats to reform in the matter
of their congressional selections? "Why
not in this case choose a man associable
with the duties of a national legislator?
Why not the very best man obtainable?
Why not, if necessary, draft a first-class
citizen, intellectually and otherwise, of
the district, and send him here for the
difficult work that will confront Congress
next spring?
What other state is more interested In
the issues of tills day than New York?
Consider how the tariff, the trusts and
the currency affect her. She is a seat
of manufactures, of large trust operations,
and the seat of the largest bank*
ing operations in thia hemisphere.
Now, of course, such a man as Sullivan
should never have been thought of
for a congressional commission. In Ills
best days lie had not the slightest qualifications
for the work. Uneducated, uninformed
in governmental matte**, and
even indifferent to things beyond his
grasp, lie had claims only on the good
will of his kind. A hearty, rough sport
among such, lie was but a ward boss.
And yet the dominating democratic organization
in New York insisted on converting
him into a so-called statesman.
As the poor fellow is down and out
now, the opportunity is ripe for a new
deal in the district: and the democrats
should seize it with avidity. The new
man should be as unlike as possible to
the old. He should know his business.
He should be worthy of a place among
the capable members of the House, and
reflect credit on the financial and commercial
metropolis of the country.
At democratic national conventions NewYork
Is sensitive about her grading. She
resents appraisement on a Tammany
level. At Baltimore last June she felt
affronted by Mr. Bryan's lecture and the
effect it had on the convention. Why
should she be outlawed in such fashion,
and her support made a reproach to a
candidate?
"Tim" Sullivan was in part the answer.
What but suspicion and contempt did
the state invite and deserve when she
offered such a man for the country's
consideration? After drawing upon her
slums for public servants, what right
had she to complain when her sister
states manifested disgust at her action?
Noblesse oblige. New York is a great
state, and should be served in the national
legislature only by men worthy of
her position and renown.
Gen. Aguinaldo. ?
Cable advices from Manila state that
Gen. Aguinaldo and his friends, encouraged
by news from this country, are
preparing for Independent government in
the Philippines. The Jones bill Is to
their liking, and their movement is
based upon it.
There is something appropriate in this.
It was Gen. Aguinaldo who first discovered
the undesirableness of American
occupation and took the field to end it.
He pointed out to his countrymen how
cruel and sordid the whole American
scheme was. His soul revolted at the
purchase of the Filipinos at so much a
head, and at the commercial tone generally
of the change of flags.
Partly because of his deficiency as a
soldier, partly because of tiie efficiency
of the American soldiers, and particularly
because of the alertness of one
KredericK Funston, Uen. Aguinaido tailed.
He was taken into camp, and American
control of the islands became complete.
Since then American sordidness has
had full sway. Roads have been built,
schools opened, business increased, and
security of life and property established.
Jt has cost something, but the work has
been pushed forward steadily. Even the
Filipinos have confessed to its value.
The probability is that Gen. Aguinaldo's
own plantations?he is an oriental farmer
?are marketable today at a higher ligure
than ever before.
Still, the Aguinaldo Aid Society in the
i'nited States, and the general and his
friends at home, are not satisfied. Their
demand is for independence for the
islands, and government according to
Filipino ideals, or notions.
Wejl, if that government is to be an
oriental stagger at a republic. Gen. Aguinaldo
should be the first president. Or,
an oriental mixture of American republic
and Spanish monarchy, he should be
its first president-king, or king-president.
The laborer is worthy of his hire; and
when the Yankee trader appeared and
expelled the Spanish oppressor, it wap
un. j\KUinaiao wno iranniy ioiu n?s counirymon
that they had simply swapped
the devil for a witch. And while he
failed to rid his country the witch
by force, he has never changed his
opinion of the new proprietor.
Senator John W. Weeks.
The election of Representative Weeks
as senator by the Massachusetts legislature
is good news to Washington, where
he is widely known, well liked and highly
regarded. Washington welcomes him to
the upper house of its local legislature.
Senator Weeks follows a long line of
eminent predecessors as a representative
of Massachusetts in the Senate. But the
promise, based on his experience and valuable
service in the House, is that he will
bear well the responsibilities and the
honors of his new and great office; and
the hope of his friends is that for many
years to come he will represent on the
floor of the Senate the people of Massachusetts.
There are some ideas of conservation
that seem to regret that the woods and
water power cannot be lacked up permanently
in a safety deposit vault.
Joe Ettor's remarks about spoiling food
in restaurants as an expression of discontent
among employes seem superfluous
to a number of already dyspeptic diners.

Value of Thrift.
Queer doctrine emanates from some college
professors, and because it is queer
It Is given publicity out of all proportion
to Its desert. It is because a queer doctrine
from such a source Is exceptional
that the fact has the news value which
carries it so far. The fact proves nothing
except that here and there an educated
man. holding a professorship in a college,
lias an unusual mental slant on some particular
subject. It may be. probably is,
that this mental slant is temporary and
due to those mysterious causes which
often Induce a man to say with all evident
sincerity what he really and normally
does not approve. In one of these
mental and verbal lapses a man has the
bad luck to be quoted. Then one who
quotes an observation that Is In Itself unusual
and queer is under the temptation
to add a touch of color or to withhold a
hit of the original setting which will not
diminish the oddity of the observation;
or. rather, the temptation is strong to Improve
upon its oddity. In fact, it is easy
to quote a man accurately, so far as the
quotation goes, and yet lamentably misquote
him. However, It is also a fact that
some college professors do deliver themselves
of unsound opinions that because
of their source exert an undeslrahl* in
fluence on undiscrlmlnating minds.
Recently the press gave extensive notoriety
to the assertion of a high educator
that "the non-saver is now a higher type
than the saver"; that "the non-saver of
earlier generations was an extravagant individual
without family ties or social motives."
and that "non-saving today is a
budgetary pressure, forcing alterations in
the family expenditures." It is also reported
that the professor advised working
girls to borrow money, if need be. in
order to be well dressed and thus advance
themselves socially and in business, and
that he also said, "I tell my students o
spend all that they have and borrow more
and spend that. It is foolish for persons
to scrimp and save. It is argued that
they are endeavoring to put something
aside for ^alny day for old age, but it
is not the individual's duty to do this: i
Is the community's."
The world needs no advice to he extrav
agant. *The need is all to the contrary
Many of the problems that beset men an<
fret them into premature senility wnul
l>e solved by a mixture of common sense
thrift and some self-denial Reasonable
not miserly, self-denial is an rxceller
measure for self-discipline. A ma'
should not let his wants run away wit!
his judgment. When one's neighbor i
simulating a degree of prosperity that h
does not really enjoy and is driving him
self into bankruptcy, exposure, humilia
tion and great need, this should serve no
as an example to be followed, but as on
to be shunned.
Thrift is a very homely thing. It ma:
mean a last winter's overcoat, but i
means also sounder sleep, a better di
gestion, a generally more comfortabl
state of mind and an easier old age.

Style and Expression.
From the New York Sun.
Apparently some business men ar
perplexed or distressed by the course o
instruction which the President-eleo
is giving them. They fail to oomprt
hend the literary temperament, th
righteous desire accompanied with th
power of expression, the temper of th
idealist accompanied with the gift an
liberal occasions of fecundity. Mi
Wilson as an accomplished and success
ful politician they appreciate. If h
were a silent soldier like Grant, if h
were a plain speaker on economic o
other subjects like Mr. McKinley o
Gen. Harrison, they would have n
trouble in understanding him. Wha
sticks in their crops, we imagine, is th
literary art, the style, the poetry, th
thrill" that runs like a golden threai
through the fabric of his recent lecture
and essays.
