It has been heard from several sources
within the last few months that there are
a large number Of willing young men in
this country who are idle for the reason
that they cannot obtain employment, and
one preacher said ia a recent sermon
that these idle young men are drifting
10 the bad as fast as the tide Of time can
float them. II there are so many
idIers. and they really desire employment
and a lettering OF their-condition, mental
" and physically, as well as materially,
why do they not enlist in the United
States navy? There is plenty Of room in
the navy. and the service offers Oppor-
tunities for advancement, as is illustrated
in the case Of Lee Bolsnd, Of this state,
which was published in the Morning News
a few days ago. The navy is in need at
the present moment of many men. There
are shortly to go into commission several
new ships. and the fear has been ex-
pressed that they will have TO go into
service shorthanded. II the men wanted
will be. for the larger part, foreigners.
The young men Of this country, it appears,
do not appreciate the navy.

rank is S24 a month, and a seaman Of the
second rank receives $1s a month. The
pay Of an apprentice is from IS to S12.
A blacksmith gets $50 q month. a fireman
$50 a month, plumber $40 a month, and
a painter $50 a month. Efficient men who
work themselves up from seamen to be
petty officers get from $50 to S125 a month.
All of the men get rations of food in ad-
dition to their pay. Apprentices are given
what may be called a good high school
education, and are trained in gunnery.
torpedo work, and mechanical and cleo
trical engineering. This training fits the
apprentice for the command of vessels in
the merchant marine, or for work on
shore, in case re-enlistment is not desired
at the expiration of the first enlistment.
The apprentices. and the seamen, too, for
that matter. have exceptional opportuni-
ties for foreign travel, and for the saving
of their earnings. and the life aboard
ship is frequently full of dash and adj
venture.
The discipline, TO be sure. is strict. but
it is not unreasonable. Furthermore, it
teaches promptness, temperance and
cleanliness, three sterling virtues. The
naval discipline is said to be less onerous
than that of the army. while the pay is
generally better for relatively the same
class of service. And there is a strong
sentiment among congressman in favor
of making the navy still more attrac-
tive to young Americans by increasing
from the ranks.

Mr. James c. Carter, the eminent New
York lawyer, in his address the other day
in Detroit before the American Bar As
ISOLATION. talked entertainingly and IN
structively Of the great need for reform
in our methods Of legislation. We enact
too many laws. We have a legislature in
each Of the forty-four states and a ma
tionaI congress engaged in making laws
from three 10 six months nearly every
year. About every legislator thinks it his
duty to be the author of at least one law.
and some legislators are the authors Of a
dozen or more laws. The consequence is
the statute books contain so many laws
that it is impossible for the people 10 be-
come acquainted with them. Even the
lawyers are not familiar with them. That
this is true is shown by what has hap
pened in this county recently.
When it was proposed to bring Abe
Small from Baltimore to this city there
was a wrangIe as 10 whether the city or
the county should bear the expense OF
sending for him. When the question II
the reward was raised it was found that
AAlCAE - a aAM WHICH AlahN1 IL AAAE uAlg III
the sheriff to bring fugitives from justice
back TO the county. Still later the COVER
nor. under the advice of the attorney gen.
eral, ordered the ordinary to fix the date
for holding an election for a representa-
tive in this county to fill vacancy. 1t
was pointed out that the attorney general
had made a mistake, and that it was the
duty, under a special law, Of the county
commissioners to fix the date of and to ar
range for the election
We mention these two recent instances
not for the purpose of criticising those
whose duty it was to know the law. but
simply to show that there is so much leg
islation that it is about impossible Cor
lawyers, and much less the people gener-
ally, to keep track of it.
What is needed is much less legislation.
A few good laws would answer far better
than the great mass of general and spec
ial laws that now cucumber the statute
books of every state. And it costs a vast
amount of money to enact these laws
money that comes out of the pockets of
the tax payers. Not only is there too
much legislation, but there is also too
much legislative machinery. In this state.
for instance, one session Of sixty days Of
the legislature once in four years could
provide all the laws the state needs. pro-
vided we had a few wise general laws
that covered the ground that is now COW
cred by special enactments. A reformer
who should reform our methods of legIs-
lation would be entitled to a monument
as the statesman of the century.
