Speculation as to the Successor Of Judge
Key.
For some time past there has been
considerable speculation as to whom
Governor Hogg would appoint to fill
the vacancy caused by the elevation
of Judge Key to the supreme bench,
and now that his appointment has
been made, as will be seen by refer
ence to another column, the thinking
and guessing will only be increased.
AS things now stand there are three
candidates in the field for the
office, Messrs. Morris and Cochran
having the endorsement of the
Democratic convention and Judge
Glaescock, the candidate Of the Third
partyites of the district. AS it would
be so manifestly unjust to the other
two Governor Hogg will certainly not
appoint any one of the three. Such be-
ing the case the political prognosti-
Gates will have to look around for a
dark horse. The question naturally
arises will the plum be given Hogg
man or a Clark man. Most people
would say at once that Hogg man
would get it of course, but if little
thought is given and careful re-
view is taken of the doings
of the past few weeks
it will be seen that the apparent
policy of the Hogg men is to conciliate
the Clark forces as much as possible
Such being the case The STATESMAN
is inclined to think that some sup
porter of the Little Warwick will SCI
cure the appointment, and in all
probability the gentleman will be Mr..
A. III. Graham. He has been allied
with the Clark movement in this
county since it's incipiency, is law
yer and in every way qualified to fill
the position.

shooting occurred at l o'clock this

THE FORCE BILL.

The force bill proposes to give the
entire control of congressional cleo
tions in the States to "chief supervis
ors,' with choosing whom the people
of the State are to have nothing to do
The chief supervisors have no term
of Office. They are to hold for life
and they are to nominate or select To-
cal supervisors, members of canvassing
or returning boards and special depu-
ty marshals at pleasure in such num-
bers as the exigency of controlling
the election requires.
These supervisors and armed spec
ial deputy marshals are to be empow-
cred to make "house to house can
vassesm,and domiciliary visits, invading
the homes of the people in the capaci-
ty of armed spies of the District of
Columbia politicians.
They are also to take charge of the
polls and make the returns to the
chief supervisors. These returns are
to be canvaased by the federal return
ing boards and on these returns the
clerk of the House is to be compelled
to make up the roll of members-elect.
If he accepts the returns Of the State
authorities against those of the fed
eral returning boards, he is to be
fined from 81 900 TO $4,000 and sent
to the penitentiary from one to five
years.
The chief supervisors, holding office
for life in spite of the people of the
States, can thus control the vote, ap-
pointing and arming as many politi-
clans as they please for special deputy
marshals at salaries of from S6 10 So
day. And If the deputy marshals
find any difficulty in controlling, the
United States army can be called in
to support the chief supervisor aud
his returning boards.--Ex.

THE FAILURE TO MARRY.

The failure of young men TO marry
has compelled hundreds of thousands
of Young women to earn an independ-
ent living, says The Ladies Home
Journal. All honor to the girls who
work; but the Divine plan was that
men should be thu bread-earners and
that women shot d be the center of
homes. Whenever such fundamen-
tai law of society as this is violated,
retribution is inevitable. There are
to-day upward of 100000 women in
the United States who make living
by professional and personal services,
such as the practice of law and medi-
cine, the teaching OF music and art
work, clerical service of one sort or
another in government and other Off
ces, quite apart from the army of
young women who serve in stores
and toll at mechanical labor. No one
who can look back over generation
of time has failed to observe the ex-
tent to which women have become
independent bread earners within
comparatively recent years, and par
ticularly in those avenues which edu-
cation and refined habits of life have
opened up. 1t is, in fact, a grave
social problem where this thing will
end.
1t would seem that this among 9th
er causes is accomplishing the purpose
which Nautilus aimed to teach: For
the inexorable conclusions of the statis-
tician show that the American and
Canadian family is steadily growing
smaller. If the average number per
family had been SO great in 1890 as in
1860, there would have been 100000
people in the United States and 4S0,-
900 in Canada above what the recent
censuses revealed. This is fact of
far-reaching Importance, and applies
its force in other directions than the
subject of this article.
Is there remedy? asks the writer
Certainly there is, and which can be
easily and readily applied. Two hum
dred years ago, guided largely by the
Jesuits, the Jealous King Louis, of
France, made stern laws for the gov
ernment of this young colony in re-
spect to marriage. He decreed that
every father having son eighteen
years of age, or daughter of fifteen,
should be held accountable to the
state if they were not married.
Farther back in history, it is record
ed that bachelors, at certain age,
were very heavily taxed, and were
looked upon with degree of odium.
History can repeat itself in this res
pect, to the benefit of the nation as a
whole, as well as to individuals.
Since the all-wise God made woman
for man, the existence of the two in
the marital relation, has been essen
tial to the happiness and contentment
of both sexes. This being true, and
no one can deny it, then let every
means possible be brought to bear tc
bring ahont the desired result
