GOOD WILL FARMS,

How to deal with boys who are not hard
ened criminals, but who are wild and way
ward, is one of the problems which have
deep interest for the philanthropist. Many
such boys could be made useful members
of society If the right influence could be
brought to bear upon them at the right
time. The usual thing is to send "incor-
rigible" boys to State reform school, or
some such institution, where, in company
with many others like themselves, they
often, not to say usually, make more or
less rapid progress in depravity. An ex-
pertinent is being tried in Maine which ap-
pears to promise better results than have
been attained in State reform schools. 1t
is called the Good Will farm, and one of
the main causes of the success which
has already been achieved is the plan
of cottage life which has been en-
ployed. Under this plan the boys
are separated as far as possible into
groups in different cottages that have been
erected, so that the beneficial effects of
family life are largely preserved, the house
hold work in each of these "families" be-
ing divided up among the boys, who also
work upon the farm or in the various
shops that have been provided.
The idea is good one, and it has worked
so we'll in Maine that 1t Is receiving attea-
ton in Massachusetts,. A farm has been
boughtin Danvers, and here it is proposed to
care for no less than five hundred destitute
and homeless children. Some of those in
terested in the matter are urging the adop-
ton of the cottage system. This system is
certainly more sensible and more likely to
improve children than the herding of hun
dreds of children together in one "institu-

AN ELASTIC CURRENCY

Henry Bacon, chairman of the house
committee on banking and currency, is a
Democrat, but he isn't State bank, wild
cat money Democrat, and he therefore
doesn't stand on the part of the Demo-
cratic platform which demands the repeal
of the tax on State bank notes. He be-
lieves that control over the issuing of
bank circulation is a constitutional func-
ton of the general government; that the
exercise of this control in the present
situation of the country is necessary, and
that return to State control of such cir
culation can never be safely or success
fully made. He Gays that the bills intro
duced in the last congress to meet the
supposed need for more money and the
arguments used in favor of permitting
State issues indicate very plainly what
some portions of the country are likely to
do If permitted to regulate this matter for
themselves.
One very important matter connected
with the proposed repeal of the tax has not
received the attention due it. This Is the
present condition of the laws in the States.
In thirteen States the emission of notes
for circulation by State banks is expressly
prohibited. These States could en- Joy
none of the supposed benefits of local
currency without amending their consti-
tuition. In fifteen States there is no pro-
vision on the subject. In these States
there is nothing to hinder any man from
exercising his "natural right" to give his
neighbor his written promise to pay for
the purpose of having that neighbor use
it in payment. That is to say, there is
nothing to hinder the emission of unse-
cured circulation, limited only by the
credit the issuers may for the time being
enjoy. In the other States there are pro-
visions of law on the subject differing
widely in their character. In these States
banks could proceed at once to issue oircu-
lating notes, more or less adequately Sc
cured, if the tax should be abolished. Un.
der some Slate laws banks could issue cir.
culating notes to the extent of three times
their paid-up capital stock without depos-
iting any security whatever. Under all
of them the profits on circulation would
be much greater than under the national
system. 1t is morally certain, therefore,
that in the absence of the tax the less con-
servative banks would issue notes and
new banks would be established under
the inducement of greater profits on circu-
lstion.
Those who want an "eIastic" currency
would get 1t If the State bank tax were re-
pealed. 1t would also undoubtedly be
stretched as far as its elasticity would
allow.

CONTEMPLATION.
"PersonRI Responsibility In ,Iu
nIcipal Governments.

personal Responsibility, Ia ,Iu-
nIcipaI Goverument.
To the Editor Of the JoURNAL AxD CoURuER-
Those reformers who think that cur city
government will be rendered substantially
perfect by giving the mayor supreme
power and responsibility" have been
accustomed in years past to point to
Brooklyn as an illustration. By a change
in the Brooklyn city charter a few years
ago the whole power of appointments and
removals and the general responsibility"
of a good administration was confided TO
the mayor. Seth Low, a republican, was
chosen the first mayor under the new eye
TEN, and during his term the experiment
worked fairly we'll. But things have
changed. The last mayor (Chapln) involved
himself and the city officials In . scsn-
dalous stealing scheme connected with the
purchase by the city of the property of tbs
Long leland Water Supply company at an
exorbitsnt price. The present mayor
(Boody) is now under a similar cloud in
volving also several of his sppointees in
consequence of giving outrageous payments
to fsvorites for the celebration of the Co
lumbus anniversary and the dedication of
the memorial arch. A suit has been
brought to recover the money to the city.
1t appears also that under this personal
| responsibility system" the fire department
| has fallen into state of ipefficiency and
| disgrace which Is arousipg public alarm
| and indignation, and has caused q
general rise in the rates of FIRE
| insurance. One of the New York
i papers says: The fayoriiism in giving
| out contracts in the department, the lack
| of discipline in the companies shown by
| the many charges against the meu which
L come before the commissioner, the scan
| dsls in regard to the examinations for po-
| sitions, aud the allegations that hrsmen
| when they should be in the engine houses
| to respond to calls are guzziing In beer
/ shops are all matters that the mayor will
/ be called upon to explain, and it will be
ascertained whether he knows any more
| about this important branch of the city
government than he says he did about the
"rum bills' which he sigued evidently
| with his eyes shut.
These and other evils which sffiict the
city government are generally attributed
to the "infiuence of politics" in the ap
pointments and in the management of the
departments. Personal responsibility
on the part of the mayor becomes delu
sion aud q farce when he is elected for thu
very purpose of running the government IL
the interest of the political bosses who
furnish the votes "The OK knoweth hi
| owner and the ass his masters crib, " anc
| IL is absurd to suppose that most mayor
who are placed In power by the msohin
| and the saloons will not feel themselve
chiefly responsible" to the agencies whicl
u created them.

The Oldest Daily Paper Pab-
Hshed In Connecticut.
AT HARTFORD.


The old legislature died quietly yester
day, after an eventful, stormy and guar
relsome career. Peace to its ashes, an6
may we never see Its like again.
The caucuses last evening developed nc
surprises. Hon. Isaac W. Brooks of Tor
rington, who will be chosen speaker Of the
house, will make very efficient presiding
officer. He has legislative experience, hav.
ing been q member of the house in 1894
and chairman of the Committee on
Finance. He is we'll acquainted with the
public men and public affairs of the State,
Is quick in thought, prompt in decision,
fair-minded and judicious.
Mr.. Brooks will have competent assist
ants in Messrs. Gates and Kellogg. Mr..
Gates was assistant clerk of the old house,
and knows his business. Mr.. Kellogg will
quickly learn, being young man of un-
usual ability, well grounded in the law,
and familiar with parliamentary practice.
The Republicans will have no ahare in
the organization of the senate. The Dem
ocrats nominated Senator Holden, of An
sonia, for president pro tenn. and the Re-
publioans made no nominations, which was
wise, as it would have done no good, unless
the Democrats were willing to give them
"s show" And 1t was not to be expected
that they would be.
Careful inquiry among the members of
the senate and house shows that the claim
that Senator Hawley is sure of reelection
is we'll founded. 1t is asserted by those
who accurately know the situation
that he will have not less than ninety-two
votes, and is more than likely to have one
hundred. So mote 1t be.
There will be great doings at Hartford
to-day and tonight. The Democratic ad-
ministration is going into power in style.
1t is going to make the most of Its oppor-
tunity.
