NATURAL RIGHTS ARE EQUALLY
BESTOWED.
Some Men are not Willing to Grant
Others the Rights They Claim for
Themselves.

'All men are created equal; and en-
dowed by their Creator with certain
unalienable rights. Among these are
life, liberty and the pursuit of happi-
ness" These words are familiar to
every school boy, and are said to be
''self-evident" truths. Of course no
one can believe that all men are created
equal in social position, or endowed
with equal prOweSs, or with equal
mental ability. But they are endowed
with equal rights to life, liberty and all
that goes to make up the sum total of
human happiness. The creator gave
life to all, and to all alike; with free
dom of choice as to how to spend that
life. In other words, man was created
free moral agent, giving him power
to make choice for himself in all things
that pertained to happiness, and with
freedom in the exercise of all his quail
tiles, with only one restriction. And
even that restriction is equal, for it
must effect all alike. To express this
in other words: There is but one limi-
tation in the free exercise of ones
rights; and that limitation effects all
men like.
Mr.. Herbert Spencer, has we'll ex-
pressed the idea as follows: Every
man has the right to do whatsoever he
wills, provided that in the doing there
Of he infringes not the equal right of
some other man." These words are
worthy of being written in letters of
gold and stamped upon the tablet of
every mans memory. What a differ
ent world this would be if every man
would remember that all others have
equal rights with themselves and that
they should always allow to others the
same rights which they claim for them
selves. When men are not willing to
do this, it is very evident that some
thing is wrong with the man. He
must either be selfish, or bigoted, or
intolerant and despotic; or perhaps all
together.
1t is very evident, that many today

l had waited until morning to jot them

1T is little thing sometimes that is
the turning point in great and hotly
contested case. and l believe that sa-
lient points that come to NE in that
manner have aided me to win cases
where l was apprehensive of the re-
suit. Some authors and poets, l be-
lieve, have followed some such plan in
preserving brilliant thoughts and ideas
and even whole poems that came at
such moments as if by inspiration.

account by the unthinking. He must
spend four years at college to obtain
the general knowledge essential to the
intelligent performance of his duties.
If he intends to enter the law he must
in addition attend law school and Sc
ries of lectures on legal themes; if
doctor, he must study at medical
school, and inform himself thoroughly
on the mechanism of the human body,
be well versed in pathology, and an ex-
pert in mental phenomena as bearing
upon physical disorders; if a clergy
man, he must attend theological SEM
mary and inform himself as to all dog
mas and creeds, all doctrines and here
sizes, all revelation and superstition.
Years of time are consumed, and much
money expended in preparation for a
professional life. OF this the general
public takes no account. And yet it is
as legitimate an outlay as is the ex-
penditure a merchant makes for a
stock of goods.
A young man can be fitted for COM
mercial pursuits at far less cost than
is necessary to fit him for a professional
career, and it requires far less effort
and patience to achieve success. The
quality called enterprise is not essential
in the professions, but learning, clear
judgment, quick comprehension, a
knowledge of men and their peculiari
ties, both physical and mental, are OF
prime Importance. The man who sur
mounts all difficulties, and by patience
skill and acumen makes name fol
himself, deserves the emoluments he
receives. There are few professional
men who are paid too much for theil
services 1t has cost them dearly t(
qualify themselves for the positions
they occupy, and few right-minded peo
pie will begrudge them either the honor
or the compensation they have won

REWARDS OF PROFESSIONAL MEN.
No Right-minded Man Will Begrudge
Them Their Just and Merited Com
pensatiOu,

An occasional paragraph in the news
papers mentioning the receipt of an ex-
traordinary fee by a lawyer or a ply
sician or other professional men leads
to the erroneous impression in many
minds that the learned professions are
highways to wealth and renown. The
majority of men believe that the re-
wards of effort are very unequally dis
tributed, and that the men who belong
to the learned professions receive far
more than their share. And in making
plans for the future of his sons the aver
age citizen elects that one, at least,
shall enter upon career that promises
distinction. This has resulted in the
overcrowding Of the professions to a
degree, with the result that we find a
doctor for every dozen patients, law
yer for every litigant, and half dozen
preachers for every pulpit.
Every large city contains scores OF
lawyers who seldom see the inside of
court room in the way of business, and
physicians who rarely see case OF
sickness. The majority of these men
are learned, capable and industrious,
but if they hope to succeed they are
compelled to toll and struggle for years,
poorly requited for their services, en-
during hardships, rebutfs and disap-
pointments ere they reach the position
where they can command their own
price for their services, and find those
services in constant request. There are
scores of lawyers who have more clients
than they can attend to; there are
scores of doctors who have more
patients than they can care for properly
Every man who has grievance to re-
dress at law seeks the services of an
attorney who has achieved high stand
ing at the bar; every person afflicted
with slight bodily ailment applies to
the most eminent physician of his ac-
quaintance for relief. and pays the fee
demanded, no matter how large, with
cheerfulness, if not alacrity. Meantime
there are hundreds of poor lawyers
well versed in the profession, who are
sitting in their lonesome offices waiting
for something to show up, but waiting
in vain And there are physicians
skillful and learned, who sit gloomily
at their windows watching their more
fortunate brethren dash by in theil
carriages to the homes of the wealthy
But do the successful physicians, ant
lawyers, and clergymen, and literar!
and dramatic writer's receive more thai
their just reward? Few of them become
wealthy; a still less number attain com
petence; the vast majority of those wh'
achieve distinction are only in moderate
financial circumstances, and are com
PEELED to labor constantly to maintain
their social position and keep grin
want at bay. And, as a rule, the

gagged in other occupations. The cos

ROT.
The Law of Heredity as a Factor in
Choosing Men to Fill Prominent
Positions.
Positions,

There seems to be disposition on
the part of many newspapers to hold
the opinion that all ordinary rules gov
erning life, more especially public life,
should be set aside whenever de-
scendent of an iIlustriOus man be-
comes an applicant for position. AS
an instance of the above noticed in
late influential paper that a grandson
of the late Maj. Genl. w. S. Hancock
had been rejected, as cadet at West
Point, because he did not come up to
the required standard weight by five
pounds. They roundly criticise the ex-
aminers because they did not set aside
the established rule and admit him, for
the reason that he was the grandson of
an illustrious general. The article
went on to say that being who he was,
that the law of heredity would in all
probability have made him one of our
foremost military leaders. This is all
rot and of the worst type. If the law
of heredity always held good, then some
of our ablest men in times past and
present would never have been heard
of. Lincoln would have been simply
back woOdsman. Grant would have
been an ordinary labOring man, while
hosts of other eminent men would to-
day be walking in the cOmmOnest paths
of life. But even for the sake of argu-
ment, supposing that the law of hered-
ity exists in the form spoken of by this
able journal, is it reason that an estab-
lished law governing the admission of
candidates to West Point should be ab-
rogated in favor of young man, sim
ply because he is the grandson of his
grandfather? Among the well defined
qualifications requisite to the admiS-
sion of person to a cadetship at West
Point it is strictly enjoined that the ap-
plicant shall be of a certain weight.
1t is just as necessary that an appli-
cant should fulfill the conditions of
physical ability as that he should be
otherwise prepared, and the wisdom
of those who know best what the
standard of physical ability should
have set the weight at certain num-
Der of pounds, under which an appli-
cant is not eligible to appointment
l do not understand that under the law
it makes any difference whether the
applicant is the son of our most illus
trious citizen, or of Peter Smith the
city scavenger. In the capitols OF
of Europe this might and probaly
would make difference, but here il
democratic America it cannot anC
probably never will. While yeild tC
no man in point of honoring that brave
old soldier Gen Hancock under whom
1 had the good fortune to serve, yet
still claim the right to repel any move
ment that would place his grandson
above the law, simply because he il
his grandson, and if the young mar
has the sturdy manliness of his grand
| sire, he would not accept even if of
, fered a position where rule woul(
have to be set aside to make him eligi
, BILE. if the law of heredity holds good
, then he may be safely trusted to max
good headway on lifes journey and a
it's end be able to render good &C
/ count of his stewardship. L.

TWO VICTORIES.

There is time when Sorrow comes,
With clash of spears and roll of drums;
When he who mOurnS may find relief.
To wear the panoply of grief;
To drag his troubles into light
And give it fair and honest fight,
A hero tried and true is he
Who strives and wins such victory!
There is time when Sorrow creepS
Within the heart and sits and weepS
From dawn till dusk. We live, we smile.
Yet hear her SObbing all the while,
Oh, the dull aching in the breast
OF grief denied and uncOnfeSSed!
A saint uncrOwned, martyr he,
Who bears such trouble manfully

nENNING ASSOCIATION.
The Citizens Meet and Consider Some
Questions.

The Benning Citizens Association last
night entertained the Brghtwood and
Northeast Washington associations. After
the minutes of the last meeting were read
and approved the Benning road commit
tee reported that Mr.. Watson had begun the
repair of all county roads In and about Ben
ming, as far out the District line. On
motion of Mr.. Baker the Anacostia road
was added TO the schedule of those needing
repairs. The secretary was ordered to re-
turn the petition in reference to substa-
ton to the chairman of the special commit
tee having that matter in charge. On mo-
ton the invitation to the Mt. Pleasant asso-
citation was tabled indefinitely. Sergeant
Kerby of the police force was present and
delivered a very interesting speech in refer
ence to the necessity of having a substa-
ton built at Benning. He stated that
thirty three years ago there We're ten
mounted men this side of the river,
whereas today, with population three
times as large as then, there are only nine
mounted men, He favored the purchase of
a site and the erection of a station and sta
bic, and also said there should be a reserve
man to act in the absence of others at
court. In a very clear and imprisoned
manner he urged the association to act
promptly and forcibly In the matter.
After other minor matters were disposed
of Mr.. John Duke was initiated as a MEN,
Der of the association, and ii is putting 1t

down the house.
During the half hour recess that follow ed
hot coffee and sandwiches We're served TO
those present including several ladies. Vice
President Mewshaw then delivered an able
address on good fellowship taking CO.
operation as his watchword. He was fol-
lowed by Mr.. j. l.. Norris of the Bright
wood association, who thought the people
of Benning too good-natured and har-
monious He was loudly cheered, as was
also his colleague. Mr.. Robinson, of the
same association. who spoke forcibly of CO.
operation, believing that the time at
hand when all suburban associations must
stand together.
Treasurer Holster Of the Northeast assoc
citation then introduced Major jerome H.
Burke, eX-warden of the jail and vice pres
ident of his association. The ma jor was in
a happy frame of mind and kept the entire
audience convulsed with laughter through
out the course of his remarks, which were
full of satire. He was I'm favor of suffrage
in the District because that would give
democrats a chance to vote. He said they
had stopped voting In the states. He was
followed by Mr.. b. l.. Nevins OF the eNecu-
tive committee of the Northeast association
in neat little speech, after which the
meeting adjourned. Cigars were served as
the guests departed.
