two-thirds of the roof was rolled up into

CONGRESSIONAL ELECTIONS.

The Chicago Herald makes pointed
and sensible argument in favor of
changing the time for holding the con-
gressional elections, and the GLOBE in
dorses every word that it has to say on
the subject. The theory is that the
members of the lower house of congress
are taken from the bosom of the people
with instructions how to dispose of cur
rent issues. But how is it in practice?
They are elected just one year and one
month in advance of the assembling of
congress, and it often happens that
questions that were live issues when
they were elected are as dead as
door nail by the time congress
is in session. In the old times, when
population was sparse and locomotion
was slow. it was necessary to have the
elections long way in advance of the
assembling of congress. But in these
days of steam and electricity there is
no other occasion for it. The English
method IS great improvement over
ours. There they have parliamentary
election on a live issue, and the new
parliament seated in shorter space of

THE TRAMP SCHOOL.

Now that the centennial excitement
has died out in New York, the people of
the metropolis are giving their atten-
ton to two other stirring events. Mem
cries of the centennial debauch are lost
in the excitement of six-days walking
tourney. while WARD McALLIsTER's
local prominence is eclipsed by man
who has registered VOW to live 100
days without tasting food, or to die in
the attempt. The pedestrians are jog
ging along at rate that promises to
surpass the record, and the faster has
the satisfaction of knowing that he has
only ninety foodless days yet ahead of
him. But when one of the pc
destrians has been crowned with
victory in the walking match. and the
fool who is starving himself to death
has been buried, what does it all
amount to? Who has been benefited,
and what practical results have been at
tanned? Walking is good exel else, and
people who have to walk usually man
age to accomplish it without any special
training. In these days of swift loco
motion, Professionalism doesn't cut any
figure as one of the uses of civilization.
The man who can walk six days at
stretch doesn't possess any advantage
over the fellow who rides bicycle, so
that walking match is only waste Of
energy without beneficial results. In
the other case of the man who proposes
to live hundred days without food, if
the experiment is success, about
the only consolation that will be
derived from it will be that which is
brought to the tramp community. AS a
rule, the population of earth would not
do without eating If they could. Aside
from its physical benefits, the luxury of
a good square meal is one that the hui
man race would never deny itself of.
If it could be demonstrated that food
was not essential to human existence,
still we would not dispense with our
food supply, for the summum bonum of
human life is what we eat, drink and
wear. Therefore the two events that
are now engaging the attention of New
York society have no possible utility,
except to encourage tramps. They are
the only ones whose business it is to
walk long distances without partaking
of food
