It's most astonishing how close the
youngest child gets to parents heart
tho boy to his mothers heart, and the girl
to her fathers. One by ono the older ones
marry or leave us, and wo get weanod af-
ter time and take fresh hold and cling
the closer to the last. The sweetest pathos
in the Bible is the pleading of Judah for
his little brother Benjamin. 1t made Jo-
seph weep and it makes mo weep every
time I read it. Our benjamin" hasn't
got coat of many colors, but ho has
spotted cap and rcd surcinglo that he
wears, and Pm afraid the Ishnaclites
will get him some OF these days.
The Agnes Scott is now institution
and has just gotten fair start. The loved
and lamented Tom Cobb named his col
lege at Athens for his daughter Lucy, but
Mr.. Scott has named this ono for his
mother. He has already spent $4,000 Oh
it, and keeps OIL spending. I predict that
he will not stop as long as he lives. Just
let man get his heart tied onto soma
great charity or something for the coed
of humanity, and it seems to expand and
absorb him, and becomes his life work.
I believe that wise Providence designed
this so that great things might be done,
and he raises up men to do it. Alfred
Shorter began his great works with
$4,000. That is all he thought he could
spare. But after awhile he strained
himself to $4,000, and then to $50, 900 and
$4,000, and he never stopped until he
died, and he had given S125,OOO to found
the Shorter college at Rome, and it is
thcrc to-day as his monument.
The Agnes Scott is most happily locn-
ted. It is just far enough from tho State
capital 10 get all of its advantages and

THE SUB-TREASURY PLAN.

Commenting upon THE CALLS assertion
that the so-called Sub-treasury plan is i'm
practicable, the Star says: 1--WE have as
yet seen no evidence that the plan is either
impracticable OF undesirable, providing the
details are managed by business men and
not by politicians" Whether the details
are managed by business men or politicians
the plan really doubles the power of money
to hold wheat or other non-perishable pro-
ducts. A man may use his money over and
over again, leaving the Government a mar
rover margin of security than-any money
lender would insist upon. A man with
100000 could buy and store 100000 worth
OF wheat and draw $4,000 for another oper-
alton. He may then buy and store $50. 600
worth of wheat and have So, 600 for a
third operation. This process may be con-
tnned until the cash received on the last
deposit is insufficient TO buy the smallest
quantity that the warehouse is authorized
to receive. 1t is hardly possible to conceive
oil plan that would enable CAPITALIST to
do more with his money. II wheat goes up
30 per cent he profits by the advance, but If
1t goes down more than 20 per cent he
leaves II on the hands of the Government.
In this way the Government furnishes the
capitalist with money TO speculate with at
very low rate Of interest, while the specu-
lation entered into may result disastrouslv
to the Government. THE CALL simply
warns farmers not to adopt policy which
Will give capital greater power over them
than IL now possesses.

SELECTING A GRAND JURY.

The silence of the Chronicle in respect to
Judge Wailace's charge to the Grand Jury
has been broken. That paper does not like
Ire charge. 1t does not Ike the method by
which The Grand Jury was completed
Neither does CIimmins. Buckley probably
would not if he we're in power, but as he is
now only ''looker on here in Vienna" he
does not trouble himself about Grand Juries.
The Chronicle has taken about the only
position IFS relations to Crimmins would
permit it To take. When Crimmins loaned
tWrnty-0ne members of the last Legislature
to NJ. II. de Young 10 give De Young a
standing among Senatorial aspirants he was
not actuated by sentiment of admiration
for De Young. The loan was attended with
considerable cost 1t settled the moral
standing Of every man so loaned. When
most OF them were afterward included in
FaylOT's combine no one was surprised.
Crimmins had fOolishly placed on his chat
tells the insignia of their class. Ii the Grand
Jury follows up the work Judge Wallace has
mapped out for them these traders in votes
will ind their occupation gone. Crmmins
now controls considerable patronage on the
ground OF his influence in the convention
which nominated several of the present Of
ficials. DE Young is reported to have an in
terest in this patronage. Crimmins consents
to the divide" on the assumption that the
Chronicle has still some political influence.
That the Chronicle should attack move
ment directed 10 close inquiry into the
methods these political bosses employ in rob-
bling the public is quite natural.
The attack is made primarily upon the ap-
pointment of an elisnr to select minority
OF the jury. 1t is not contended that the
law did not place in the hands Of the Judge
the power he exercised. This being ad-
mitted, the exercise of that power is good
OF bad according to the motive. If Judge
Wallace is honest in his expressed desire to
bring criminals to justice it was his duty to
employ lawful means to accomplish that
purpose. To THE CALL the purpose of the
Judge seems sincere. There is no political
capital in it unless something is accom-
plished. If the Grand Jury fails to indict,
or the courts fail to convict, there will be no
honor fori anybody connected with the
movement. The public and the press are
compelled to take certain things on credit.
When movement promises well it Is the
Guty OF good citizens to support it while the
actors in it remain true TO their professions.
A selfish motive may be found for every
noble action. A desire for personal fame
may be urged as selfish motive II real
reform results from the investigations OF the
present Grand Jury Judge Wallace and the
individual jurors are entitled to whatever
political capital grows out of a patriotic ac-
ton. 1t is not wise to permit all the fruits
Of political endeaYor to 90 the professional
boodler.

NATURES LAWS AND STATUTE LAWS

The Boston H'omGn's Journal gives the
following case as au illustration of the al
legged inequality of the sexes before the law
Three points in the case are mutually ad-
mitted: First, that a man and woman lived
as husband and wife eight years; second,
that two children were born to the couple
and, third, that at the expiration of about
eight years the man left the woman and re-
fused TO contribute to her support The
case came into court on a petition of the
woman to be given possession of the chill
dren. The court held that the case depend
ed upon the point whether the man and
woman had been legally married. If they
had the husband could claim the children 4;
If they mad not the children would remain
with the mother. The man swore that
they had been married; the woman swore
that they had not. The court believed the
man and gave the children to him. The
WomGn'S Journal complains of the decision
as giving the unmarried mother greater
rights over her children than the married
mother possesses. The Journal complains
of law of nature. The law which, in effect
declares the woman the sole parent of a
child born out of wedl0ek recognizes the i'm
possibility Of tracing paternity except under
certain conditions of life. In the marriage
state there are two legal parents, but the
relation of parties which justifies tie law
in recognizing two can only be known to
the law in the married state. In other
words, such relation of parties is unlawful
and the law cannot undertake to regulate
the consequences Of an unlawful act. In de-
termlning the rights of parents society has
| to be considered. Which of two parents
can best support the child? The law pre-
sumes that the man can, but in a good
| many States children are given to the
mother upon proof that she can care for
them, when the separation is the fault Of the
father. Cases of hardship necessarily arise
under any marriage law. 1t is hardship to
the other party when either party tires of the
relation they have entered into and with
draws from 1t. The law partially redresses
this wrong when the husband is the erring
party by giving the wife a claim upon the
husbands earnings in cases where there is
no property. Even when the fault Is mutual
| the husband may be held to the mainte-
nance of his wife. But the law, with the best
intentions, cannot reach every possible
case. There seems, however. a disposition
on the part of many advocates of woman's
rights to charge the statute law with conse-
quences that result from the irrepealable
laws of nainra

DEPEN,s HUaTOR.

Chauncey Depew would not be human If
he did not occasionally fail in his humorous
reflections. He is reported RS saying that
be believed that Providence had sent good
crop to America and a bad crop to Europe
in order that the blessings of a Republican
admin alton might be continued. In
other words, good times are good for the
party in power and bad for the party out of
power But if Mr.. Depew made the re-
mark, he probably did not intend it for
print. He would not like to go on the rec
ord as expressing the belief that the Repub-
lican party can only continue in power by
he special interposition of Divine Provi-

EDITORIAL NOTES.

One or two little mishaps to the white squad
ron at New York provoked sarcastic COM
ments from earping critics, but 1t was nothing
compared to The casualties TO The British feet
engaged in the recent maueuvers while on It's
way from Plymouth to Berehaveu. The Swift.

her engine, the Speedwell burst a steam pipe,
the Tartar b. oke an ecceDtric-rOd aud had to
drop out for repairs, the Latonia's condenser
gave OUT. the Pallas' condenser broke down md
with the Latona she put into port for fresh water
the Spider was obliged TO return TO Plymouth to
repair her engine. the Sharpshooter burned out
her furnace bars and the Sparker smashed one
OF Der piston rings and got one of her boilers In
such a condition that she was disabled. There
is material in this list for pretty spicy debate
in the Commons over the naval estimates.
Austrian military journals, In commenting on
recent army changes In Russia including the
ganlzalion OF new army corps, allude to the
enormous disproportiOn between the cavalry
with which Russia and Austria would respect
lively enter the next war. Russia, II is asserted,
could muster 494 SquadJ Ons taken from The eX-
istlng formations, besides 2S4 sQuadrons belong
ing 10 lie second and third leyies. This makes
1872 squadrons, and to this vast force Austro-
Hungary could oppose only 341 sQuadrons or
less than hall. II only The cavalry OF The line be
compared and The differences in quality taken
into account, there would stil remain a differ
ence OF 100 sQuadrons TO the advantage OF Rus
STA.
Tie heterogeneous character of the forces con-
stucting lie Trans Caucasian Railroad is shown
by the fact that the contingent OF aborers cou-

THE ENGLISH HARVEST.

1t has generally been assumed that the
English harvest would be about up to the
average. In estimating the needs of Europe
the United Kingdom has been charged with
Its usual importation Of about 140, 600 coo
bushels. -Four days ago an English paper
SAID that two weeks of good weather
would insure an average harvest. Since
then rain has fallen almost continuously.
A violent storm was reported Friday in the
English Channel, and it is admitted that the
weather dampened the reception to the
French feet Under these conditions it
will not be surprising If full accounts of the
storm show serious damage to the grain

RECEIVING THE FRENCH.

Reading between the lines the impression
is gained that the visit of the French fleet
to English waters did not inspire the aver
age Briton with much enthusiasm. A Lon
don correspondent describes the reception
as marked by the total absence Of hysteria.
Hysteria and enthusiasm run into each
other. When there is much Of one there is
always little of the other. The conclusion
is, therefore, that the reception the English
gave tine French was polite but cool. Lord
Salisbury did not find it convenient to be
