The record-union., 1893-12-08

REV. Mr.. PARKHURsT of New York
has been preaching that hard times in
business means boom in religion. So he
looks forward to enlarged interest in
churches and church work the coming
winter. There may be something in this,
but we apprehend that it is not of much
importance. Accessions by churches
through stress of things not spiritual are
not apt to be lasting. If men are driven
to religious duty solely because their ma
terial wants are not supplied, then a new
incentive to spirituality has been an
nounced with which the world was not
acquainted to this date as commendable.
If the New York churches are proposing
to add practical relief for the unemployed
to their church work, then we can under
stand why there will be focking to the
pews and the mourners' benches. Fill
ing stomachs and clothing bodies will
draw many to religious instruction who
else will evade it. And why is not such
form of proselyting sensible?

HERE is an idea from China. Finding
that long terms of Imprisonment and
fogging do not check robbery and pir
acy and systematic practice of imposition
on strangers in the nature of thievery in
the Soochow district, the authorities have
resolved to try branding. For the first
offense the thief is to be branded on the
right cheek, and for the second on the left
cheek. The brand is to be the Chinese
sign for the word thief. AS the Chinese
have a superstitious horror of all facial
Disagreement, the belief is entertained
that the new punishment will check the
criminal element. 1t may in China, but
elsewhere branding had no such result.
1t is not in proof that the severity Of pun
ishment matters much-it is the certainty
ofconviction and punishment that counts.
To brand criminals would with US result
in creating class of outlaws who would
put the witnesses of their misdeeds out of
the way. Every robbery would be muir
der also.

eel of the American system.

THE introduction of blood hounds for
the purpose of trailing criminals, and
especially ''road agents." may serve to
make highway robbery so precarious that
it will decline from its present safe level
in California. One of the southern coun-
ties has procured blood hound pack and
put it into training. But what would be
more eficacious would be a small force OF
State constabulary. a chief of such a
force located at the Capital, with six dep
uties in distict sections. and in COM
munication with the chief by wire,
and having authority to call into ac-
tivity the county peace officers, would
give US a system that would render
escape by road agents very rare. Be-
sides it would put the cost upon the
whole State, as State interest. instead of
saddling the whole burden of pursuing,
capturing and Furnishing such criminals
upon a few counties, and always those
least able to bear the expense.

CHICAGO is astonished over the discov-
cry that the Chinese of that city boil their
dead and scrape their bones for shipment
to the Flowery Kingdom. That practice
is no novelty in California. After all it
is in the main matter of sentiment
Such disposition is better than burial, to
which revolving method of disposal the
RECoRD-UNIoN has all along been op-
posed, preferring the better and the clean
lier method, incineration. But the GUS
tom of the Chinese viewed in another
light, serves to prove how non-assimila-
tive these people are. Their exclusive
ness is illustrated by this return of their
bones to their native soil. In that sense
the custom is cited in California as an adj
ditional proof of the fact that the Chinese
cannot and will not become part and par
Gel of the American system.

from publicity Of instructions to Minister
Willis was such secrecy only as is GUS
tomary and discreet. Nevertheless, it is
by no means reprehensible that the pub
lie should seek early knowledge of all
governmental transactions. II really in
dicates a jealousy that is a safeguard in
itself. and may be considered more than
mere curiosity-rather indeed patriotic
spirit. and sensitiveness regarding the
liberties of the country, the preservation
of constitutional guarantees, and strict
holding of public servants to the line of
authority, that is altogether encouraging
for the cause of self-government, and the
the maintenance of the independence and
check of the three grand divisions of our
systematic legislative, judicial and eX-
ecutive.

Mr.. JAMES R. CHURCH is an authority
upon football-in fact the best writer on
the subject. He is, moreover, a practical
player and an earnest advocate Of the
game. What Mr.. Church has to say in
criticism of the sport as it is now played
is, therefore, Of high value. Out OF the
introduction OF the modern rules of the
game arises most of the danger in it. 1t
always was rough game, one demand
ing strength, endurance, agility and abil-
ity to receive considerable punishment.
But originally it did not involve the risks
which are now characteristic of it. Hear
Mr.. Church upon this subject:
With the introduction of the wedge much
of the picturesqueness of football passed
away. Many a regret IS heard because the days
OF long passes, open play, Tree running and
repeated kicking are gone. TIE wedge con-
tracts the play; it huddles the players; il re-
effort; il Injuries 100 many players, dozen
ankles and knees being spra1ned to-day to one
ten years ago.
So much of confession as that from such
an authority and an advocate and defender
of the game, goes far toward making the
case of the RECoRD-UNIoN against the
brute force now employed in the sport,
with the accompanying danger.

Possessed of Excellent Habits.

A fond parent residing in a small New
York State village wrote recently to an
old friend of his, Worth street mer-
chant OF New York making inquiries re
garding the habits of his son, who was in
the old merchants employ.
81 trust he keeps good company the
letter said, "and is cultivating no bad
habits Do you know where he sleeps at
night"
To this the merchant replied: 81 do not
know where he sleeps ct night. But
do not worry yourself on that score.
From the amount of sleeping he does in
the store in the daytime I'll warrant he
gets sufficient rest"

THE EXPERIMENT IN COLORADO.

Now that Colorado has adopted woman
suffrage we shall await the trial of the
system there with great deal of interest.
Colorado is a very different community
from that of Wyoming or Washington Or
Kansas, and the result in those three
States prove very little for or against the
experiment in Colorado.
The State is farther advanced in social
and business lines than either Wyoming
or Washington, where the experiment
was tried under frontier conditions-so to
speak. Colorado has more unified and
self-possessed people than Kansas. The
business character of the Coloradans,
their energy, push and courage and their
local pride are distinctive characteristics.
Woman suffrage in such a State will,
therefore, possess a new interest.
For we may reasonably expect the test
of woman suffrage in Colorado to proceed
upon practical rather than sentimental
lines; to be treated heroically rather than
sentimentally. That it will be given a
perfectly fair show" goes without say
ing. 1t is characteristic of the Colorado
community, containing as it does much
of the better elements of the older East,
broadened in view and activity by the
freedom of the West and the chivalrous
atmosphere of high attitudes, in fact and
in sentiment, to insure fair play, no mat
ter what the contest.
Ifwoman suffrage, which we believe to
be not best for woman's highest interests,
were submitted to the cold and merciless
business world it would not gain foot
ing-not even hearing; but in an active,
spirited, bustling, business community
which is tempered by the chivalry, free
handedness and sentiment of such peo-
pie as went into the West and carved
Colorado out of the mountains, there is
the very best conditions possible for its
fair and even-handed trial.
It is because of these conditions obtain
ing in Colorado that we view the expert
ment of the women there with especial
interest. True. Colorado has been over
hospitable to new things-rather too
ready to accept fads and notions in
finance and other matters. The extreme
liberality of her people has led them into
excess of readiness to experiment and to
test new things. But woman suffrage is
not new. It is an old proposition-one
that has been persistent these many
years. Its advocates are wonderful ex-
amples of patience and perseverance un-
der manifold obstacles and opposition.
1t may be that Coloradans have re-
solved upon trying woman suffrage from
purely selfish reasons; that they hope
through its agency to strengthen their
position upon questions that they make
peculiar to themselves. But however
that may be, the test will not be the less
severe or its lesson the less valuable.
We apprehend that the experiment win
fail; that the women of Colorado will
themselves presently advise its abandon
ment; that men will find in it such diver
sion from domesticity, such interruption
of home life, such added momentum, be-
cause of the experiment, to the drift of
woman into business to her own detri-
ment and that of society. that they will
be solicitous after a very few years for
return to the old political system.

THE passage by the United States SEN
ate of a resolution asking for the Ha-
waiian correspondence indicates the
jealousy of the American people of
secrecy in public affairs. It is not at all
likely, when the correspondence and
instructions are made public, that they
will disclose any matter which it will ap-
pear it was unwise to have withheld from
immediate publicity. Public business
having relation to foreign affairs, of neces-
sity, in the majority of cases, must be
withheld in secrecy during negotiation,
to the end that the purpose in view may
not be defeated. It never has been the
policy of our Government, however, to
maintain such reticence longer than was
deemed absolutely necessary to careful
