After a really brilliant debate in the
Assembly, THE EVENING WORLDS bill,
giving a right of appeal in cases of the
commitment of children to the care of
charitable and benevolent societies, was
ordered to a third reading by an over
whelming majority. 1t is strange that the
organized societies should have made any
opposition to this righteous measure. 1t is,
as The WORLDS plucky and energetic
scion declares, better that the autocratic
privileges of ninety and nine bureau
cratic societies should be reasonably
abridged than that the rights of a single
helpless infant should be strangled in
Charity's red-tape." The right of appeal is
too sacred to be denied even to children.

ON WITH THE GOOD FIGHT.


The Assembly did nobly. The autocrats
we're put to rout. The Peoples Cause was
all potent. Old fashioned Justice had her
inning. Like mist before the morning sun
wal swept away for the time the bureaucratic
opposition TO the Children's bill. It passed
a third reading. and its final passage In the
Assembly is assured.
But there's the Senate! The lobbying
methods Of the Bureaucratic. desperate in
their efforts to retain their autocratic power,
will be employed str%enuously to blockade
there the righteous reform. And the Bureau
Gratis, led by Mr.. ELBRIDoE T. GERRY. are
indeed formidable. They have wealth,
social standing, prejudice and organization
behind them.
But there is one hacker they c~onspicuously
lack. And that is Justice. She is whole
souled on the side of the Children's bill.
And with Justice for an ally in the Peoples
Cause there's no such word as "fail" in
The EVENING WoRLD's vocabulary.

PIG RECORDS IN DISPUTE.
MANY READERS ARE NCREDULOUs AS TO
THE TIMES SUBMITTED.

Some of the pig-drivine records submitted
to us have been the subject of doubt to many
readers. and indeed, it is not to be wondered
at, when one takes into consideration the
marvellous time of two and three seconds
which the writer's claim as their official time.
Several challenges to repeat these records
have been offered, but none as yet accepted.
A young man of fifteen years states this
morning that he has penned the pigs in four
and one-half seconds, which is an improve
ment on the alleged time of less than three
seconds, which was sent in yesterday.
Among the letters published this morning
are two which suggest a variation of the
ordinary methods employed. and may be
found upon trial to be an interesting way of
adding to the charm of that razzle-dazzle
patiepce-tester.
