BRITISH BUTCKFRY.

South Africa is just now undergoing
an experience that many people in far
away lands have undergone during the
manufacture OF history. The Matabeles
are being brought by England through
butcheries and burnings and massacres
to a proper sense Of the fact that they
have no right to their own country
when 1t suits Great Britain to extend
her influence or her territory.
Just now the necessities of Cape Col
ony require the wiping out of King
L~obenEula. Some three or four thou.
sand savages have already been slaugh.
tered in accomplishing this object, and
Mr.. Labouchere asked the question In
the House of Commons yesterday
whether this was not somewhat unnec.
essary bloodshed. But what does Afrl.
can blood measure against English

only the light woollens which form a
part of every Summer wardrobe are
liable to be moth eaten and require
especial care. All of these which are
soiled should be washed and pressed:

SHALL THE COURT OF APPEALS BE
SAVED

The electors Of the state Of New York
will be called upon next Tuesday to dis
charge one OF the highest and most re-
sponsible duties a people can ever be re-
qu!red to perform The ballots they cast
that day in the exercise OF the most
sacred privilege Of citizenship will decide
shall remain an unsullied tribunal, COM
handing the confidence OF the commu-
nifty, or shall be tainted by the presence
of a convenient politician. without quail
hcatlon or character for a judicial posi-
ton, and wearing its honors only as n
reward for a discreditable partisan ser
vice.
Judge Maynard is already on the Bench
Of the Court OF Appeals. But he is there
temporarily only, by the appointment Of
a political Governor in payment OF a
political debt. His election by the people
for a full term would be quite a different
matter. 1t would mean the justification
OF a great public wrong, a permanent
lowering OF the character OF the Court,
an insult to the entire judiciary OF the
State over whose decisions the Appellate
tribunal has final jurisdiction.
For nearly fifty years, since the or
ganization of the Court under the Con-
stitution of 1876 and it's reconstruction
under the constitutional amendment OF
1869. lone but men OF marked ability,
established learning and unblemished
character hav sat or Its bench. The
list is an honorable and spotless one.
Scan 1t from Freedom G. Jewett, Greene
c.. Bronson. Charles II. Ruggles and
Addison Gardner, elected in 1s47. down
Charles Andrews, elected in 1892, and no,
a single name can be found that does
not do honor to the Judiciary. Are the
people of New York willing to add Isaac
H. Maynard to such a list at the bidding
Of half a dozen political leaders?
The principle of an elective judiciar!
Is on trial. II party bosses can fore,
the nomination of a convenient partisa:
for a Judge OF the Court OF Appeals q,
they can compel the appointment of 4
Police Justice. and II the voters can b,

tive judiciary must be a failure.
1t Is for the people to decide whetael
they will save the highest court of tn,
State or whether they will open the wa!

~scrupulous politicians. 1t Is their las

Open Letter to q Young Man.

To the Editor:
For a young man who wants to be a dentist
At nineteen years you really have your life be-
fore you. Al a successful dentist. more sue
cessful than the average. let me advise you to
try any other profession. II you must have q
profession. the law, medicine, architecture. or
better than all, electricity. Ny reason for speak
ing in this manner is that as l grow older l realize
more and more the ~frtilIty OF trying to earn a com-
potency with one pair OF hands. a dentist who
is successful would, with the same amount OF
study and practice applied to any business or
trade, make enough to retire at fifty. One pair
OF hands cannot do enough in these times. even
II accident and sickness pass by on the other
side. The young man who is anxious to sue.
coed should learn some business where he can
some day control enough labor to earn his living
and more; and never forget that a dentist only
has an income while he works; when he leaves
bis once for an hour his income ceases.
