DR. Carlton, of Athens, will not be a
candidate for the governorship for the
fun Of the thing, or for the glory of going
on the stump and making political
speeches. He has had a taste of political
life, has won his spurs as a public servant
and is resting on well-earned reputa-
tion. If he enters the lists again it will
be because the people want him, not be-
cause he wants office The stand the
doctor has taken with regard TO his possi-
BILE candidacy is considerate of the
avowed candidates and of the wishes of
the people, and is to be highly COM

Popular subscriptions are being taken
in Brazil for the purpose of erecting a
monument to President James Monroe at
Rio de Janeiro. But for the well known
attitude Of this government with respect
to European interference with the politi-
cal affairs Of any of the Central or South
American countries, the autonomy Of
those countries probably would not con-
tinue long. Indeed, it may be said that
the Monroe doctrine of the United States
is the keystone of Central and South
American independence. Except for the
prompt attention of the United Estates
navy, the recent trouble in Brazil might
have afforded the opportunity for some
foreign power to gain controlof the great
est federation of South American states.
The Brazilians seem to appreciate this ;
hence their movement to honor the mem
ory Of the propounder of the Monroe
doctrine.

A petition demanding that a closure
rule be passed by the Senate has been put
In circulation. II is understood that Sen
ator Berry has charge of it and is being
assisted by several of the younger SEN
ators. The old fellows, however. are
violently opposed to the proposition, and
will listen to no explanation or urging
upon the part of the younger fellows.
Senator Stewart, the Nevada patriarch.
is credited with being the most bitterly
opposed Of all the senator's, holding that
the suggestion of closure on any bill is an
admission that the bill is inherently
weak. Measured by similar standard.
Senator Stewards idea of physical
strength must be the capacity to talk; in
which event the gentleman from Nevada
Is an inapproaehable athlete.

Compulsory Education in New York.

From the Philadelphia Record tDeml.
The compulsory education law passed by
the New York legislature Just prior to adj
Journment was the outcome OF tifte en- years
OF co5ltatlOn on this subject. AN enactment
so well thought out ought to be wisely adapted
10 the purpose in view. 1t may be hoped that

1t is notable that the reduction of the op-
Grating forces in the Carnegie steel works
at Homestead, Pa, noted in our dis
patches of yesterday, was not occasioned
by any lack of demand for the products
of the mills, but by the employment of
improved machinery. Five hundred men
were laid off at the works, yet the out
put of the works is to be increased. Fear
of the Wilson bill cannot be alleged by
the republicans as the reason for these
workingmen being out of jobs; the inven-
tors have merely substituted machine
labor FOR the manual labor of 500 or
more men.

Democracy in Ohio does not seem to be
at discount. In the third district of
Ohio an election for congressman was held
Tuesday. Last year Mckinley carried
the district by 500 majority. ON Tuesday
the democrats carried it by about $500
majority. This does not look as if demo-
Gratis were dropping away from the Dem
ocratic party. 1t looks, in fact, as if
they were full of enthusiasm and fight.
Gov. Mckinley says the reason the demo
Gratis were victorious was that the re-
publicans took no interest in the cleo
tion. The governors excuse is not con-
vincing

Representative Bell, of Colorado, rings
in a chestnut in the hope of lifting him

Profit Sharing.

In an open letter to employers and en-
ployes the Association for the Promotion
of Profit Sharing, of which Carroll D.
Wright. who is at the head of the labor
bureau at Washington, is the president,
calls attention to the advantages of profit
sharing. 1t is stated that the profit
sharing system has been approved by
economists of this country and Europe.
and it is asserted as fact that the sys-
tenn has been successful and satisfactory
wherever it has been tried.
The system provides for paying en-
ployes as good wages as the business will
bear, and for giving employees a share in
the profits besides. 1t is contended that
the interest of employees will be so en-
listed in the business of employers
that they will be much more economi-
cal and industrious, and that therefore
additional profits will be earned and that
employees, instead of losing, will be the
gamers by the system.
Mr.. Wright has given this matter a
great deal of attention, and, apparently,
is convinced that profit sharing offers
satisfactory solution of labor trou-
bles. No doubt the system establishes a
more friendly relation between employers
and employees, and it is certain that it has
the effecr of making employees, as rule,
more careful of the interests of their en-
ployers.
Profit sharing is not a new thing, and
if it has so many benefits for both en-
ployes and employers, 1T is rather strange
that it has not been adopted to a much
greater extent. This would seem to in
dicatc that it is very fine in theory, but
not so satisfactory in practice.

An incident illustrating how fraudulent
pensions are sometimes obtained came up
in the pension Office the other day. A
Michigan widow wrote to her representa-
tive in congress to find out why her pen
sion had been stopped The reason was
ascertained to be that the soldier, whose
widowshe claimed.to be, had applied for
an original pension for himself. had been
allowed the pension and was drawing 1t
regularly. The soldier had anidavits to
prove that he was the person he claimed
to be and that he was alive. Upon these
facts being reported to the widow she
made affidayit that the soldier was dead.
and supported it with affidavits of friends
who nursed himin his last illness. The
congressman insists that the widow is a
widow, and that the soldier who is draw
ing the pension is dead. Itis very evident
that a fraud has been perpetrated, and
the bureau is going to find out where the
fraud lies

A New Haven street railway company
has hit upon novel plan to prevent
riders from giving other people their
transfer checks. A set of miniature
heads is printed on each check. The first
is of a smooth-faced man, the second the
head and face of mustached man, the
third wears side whiskers, and the fourth
has full beard. OF feminine heads there
are only two, one with bonnet and one
without. The conductor punches out the
description of the person to whom he
gives the transfer ticket, and if a smooth
faced man tenders a ticket on which a
whiskered head is punctured, there is a
racket. The idea is unique, certainly;
but its adoption suggests that the New
Haven street car companies have mighty
uncertain population to contend with. In
almost any southern city the travellers
could be trusted not to try to beat the
company out of fraction of cents.

1t is we'll enough to keep before our
northern republican contemporaries the
fact that Coxeyism, whatever may be its
end, had its beginning in the northern,
"loyal," republican state of Ohio The
south, so far, has taken no part in the
senseless demonstrations. Commenting
on the place of origin of Coxeyism, the
Chicago Herald says: "If the movement
had begun in the south, with thousands

A peculiar and interesting fact brought
out in the testimony in the Meyer poison
ing case in New York is that not more
than one healthy man in ,OCO voluntarily
applies for life insurance. Men who are
not good risks, and whose applications
are rejected, apply numerously unso-
licited, but in the case of healthy men 999
out of 900 of them do not take out life
insurance until solicited to do so by in
surance agents. When a perfectly healthy
man applies voluntarily for life insurance
he becomes marked man among insur-
ance people who know the circumstances.
These facts were testified to by several
insurance experts, and photograph ex-
hibited was identified by one examiner as
the likeness Of Meyers alleged victim,
Notwithstanding the fact that the wit
ness had made several hundred examina-
tions subsequently, because the man
whose likeness it was had been volun-
tary applicant, which fact caused the ex-
aminer to take especial note of him.

Congressmnn krle,s Camnairn.

Representative Kyle of Mississippi, when
making his first fight for congress, had the
misfortune to start his canvass rather late,
and as a consequence he experienced some
difficulty in getting his farmer constitu-
ents, who were busily engaged putting in
their crops, to listen to him while he laid
before them his claims for the place In
order to overcome this, he hit upon a rath-
er novel expedient Taking a good stout
negro in his buggy, he would go out into
the backwoods and drive along the road till
he sighted an old farmer blowing Then
drawing up along the straggly worm
fence, - the candidate would wait until the
voter got to the end of his row, when he
would sing out, Say, there, want to talk
with you minute Can't STOP" the
old fellow would reply; bound to git this
crop laid TO tomorrer night. Amt got
time to talk to no can idate bout nothin
now"
But " as Mr.. Kyle would say, give
got the best plowhand in the country here
in the buggy with me. He'll pillow while
we talk politics. Better not let him plant
any waternelons for you, though, because
when this niger plants watermelons they
grow so fast that the vines wear the mel
ons out dragging them over the ground.
You have to fasten the vines to give the
melons chance to grow, and when they
do you have 90 stand ON barrel to thump
them on top. Pomp, get down and plow
for the gentleman awhile" Then Mr..
Kyle and the voter would lie under the
shade of tree, swap yarns, abuse the Re-
publicans and jaw the negro because he
was SO lazy. The result of this peculiar
campaign was the nomination and election
of Mr.. Kyle by an overwhelming major
