That policy is. in nutshell, to provide
Tor the pressing needs of the government
and then stop. What those needs are,
VIII be determined to a large extent by
the Presidents message. There is a gen.
eral impression that more sources of rev
enue are needed to place the.government' S
receipts on level with the expenditures,
and if this be confirmed by the Presi-
DENTS message one of the pressing duties
OF the House will be to initiate legisla-
ton for this purpose. There are.two gen.
eral ways in which additional revenue
can be raised-by duties on imports or by
| internal taxation. The first plan is
more in accord with Republican policy
| and is the one likely to be adopted,
| though there are good many Republic
cans who are inclined to think that even
the very slight revision which would be
necessary to provide the revenue from the
tariff had better be postponed until the
Republicans are in full control of the gov
eminent. The President is likely to favor
increased internal taxation rather than
increased tariff duties, because that is
more in accord with the tariff-for-re
enue-only policy which he has espoused,
and it may be that he will interpose a
veto to any bill that either increases ex-
isting duties, or levies new ones. How
ever. if the representatives fresh from
the people and empowered by the consti-
tuition to initiate revenue measures pro-
vide in a constitutional way the revenue
needed by the government and the Presi
dent vetoes the measure, upon him will
be the responsibility for the deficit and
the evils in its train.
Another subject which may receive
some attention from Congress is the cur
rency. The Secretary of the Treasury
will undoubtedly thrust it upon them
and try his best to make it the most
pressing question. But while Congress
may give it some attention, it is not at
all likely that it will second the efforss
of the Secretary to make it the most
prominent question. Certainly it will not
retire the greenbacks. Doubtless the cur
rency system needs revision, hut the pres
emit Congress is altogether too heterogen-

undertaken with any hope of success
Possibly the House could do something,
but nothing can be got through the SEN
ate as at present constituted, unless it is
acceptable to the silver men. and bill of
that stamp would be acceptable to nobody
else.
Beyond making provision for more rev.
enue and giving the Secretary of the
Treasury power to issue short bonds to
meet any emergency that may arise, the
present Congress, is not likely to 60 It's
main work will be the construction and
passage of the regular appropriation bills,

it will see to it that these are made as
small as is l. consistentiwlth the needs of

and was pulling at everything he could

Another class of voters, who mad not
reau the instructions carefully, dlu not
understand that they must push IN the
Knobs until they stayed. They came out

h AIop pushed In properly, and all the
otners had failed to count.
some complaint was made of the ma
chlne on account of the noise made by

cupant was voting straight or not The

Young split, " Those who understood
how voted their ''splits'' first
y AT the side of the machine, back of
the KNOBS, had been inserted the names
OF all the candidates precisely the same
as tney.Were on the inside of the cabinet.
At the close of the polls the doors were
opened and opposite the name Of each
candidate was registered the total num-
Der OF votes cast for him. One of the in
spectors called off the figures, while an
other filed out a. printed tally list fur
nished for that purpose.
In this way the complete vote in each
poiilng place was known in less than Is
minutes. While the machine gave gem
eTal satisfaction, it is said that some of
the knobs did not work easily and it ap-
peared that the total vote in some dis
tricts did not correspond properly to the
total number of men who had voted.
This, however, may be explained en- the
ground that some men failed to vote at
all. by not pushing in the knobs far
enough to make them stay. With prac-
tice all these. little defects will pass
away, in, all probability, and it is very
likely that in a very short time every
town in Westchester county will vote by
machine.

Ancient Image of the Infant Christ.


One of the most valuable relics in the
collection of the famous church of Ara
Coeli, Rome, is the noted image which
has frequently been figured and de-
scribed in the investigative magazines
under the heading of 1.-THE Oldest Dol,
In the World. In Italy this valuable
carving is called III Bambino' tssThe
Infantry, and legend says that it is fig
ure of the child Jesus, carved from
tree on the Mount of Olives, the iden.
teal one under which Christ underwent
the agony on the night before the cruel
fixion. According to the popular belief
it was carved by ! franciscan monk or
pilgrim accounts differ on that score)
and painted by St. Luke. In Rome the
figure has been greatly venerated for
centuries on account of the power at,
tributed to it of miraculously healing
the sick.
When cardinals and other high church
dignitaries and officials are supposed to
be on their deathbeds the 'Bambino'' is
often taken to the sickroom, and many
are the miraculous cures that have been
reported. When taken on such missions
the "Bambino" is never carried, but is
tax !, by a prelate in tan colored coach
over which floats the holy vermilion
flag. There is legend that the figure
was once stolen from it's place in the
church reliquary, but that it escaped
and walked back. This supposed Incl
dent is made the subject of poem by
Aldrich which bears the title of "a
Legend of Ara Coeli. '-St. Louis Re-

While we share in DIR. Parsons's exas-
peration at the apathy of the Powers, we
do not believe that the policy he seems to
recommend to the American government
would. under existing circumstances, be
unwise. Scattered through the interior
of Armenia are good many American
missionaries, whose lives are entirely at
the mercy of the Turks, by whom they are
surrounded. There is no evidence that
up to the present time, single one of
them has been harmed. But if an Amer
lean cruiser should enter the Dardenelles
and threaten the Sultan, who is the
head of the Moslem church as well
as the ruler Of Turkey, it is to
be feared that the fanaticisIn which now
expends itself upon the Armenians,
would extend to the missionaries and
that the lives of everyone of them would
be put in jeopardy. This danger may be,
and probably is, one Of the considerations
that make the Powers SO reluctant to re-
sort to coercion. The missionaries are
for the most part in the interior where
no naval force can afford them any pro
lection. Upon the assumption that the
Sultan has control Of the situation in
Armenia and that a word from him
course as DR.. Parsons suggests would
WORK good results; but il the assumption
were wrong, and if, as is probably the
case. the fires of fanaticism, though the
Sultan probably did light them, are be-
yond his power to quench, we can readily
see that such a course weuld. only tend
to increase the fanatioism and the, mas
sacres. 1t is difficult to believe that if
the only problem that confronted the
Powers we're the terrifying of the Sultan
into commanding these massacres to
cease, there would be any hesitation
among them to enter the Dardenelles
in forco and lay in ashes the Sultan's
palace if need be. We fear the truth
is, that the more coercion put upon
the Sultan, the more indignities
heaped upon him, the greater the
danger of the massacres spreading in
Asiatic Turkey. and taking in the mis-
sionaries as wellFas the Armenians. What
the Powers are justly to be blamed for,
Is not for forbearing to make a demonstra-
ton before Constantinople, the result of
which is problematical to say the least,
and as likely to be hurtful as helpful to
the Armsnians; but for permitting their
jealousies to stand in the way of issuing
mandate to Russia to throw troops into
the disturbed district.

The change in the public mind is
the natural result of q vigorous, per
sistant and wide spread advertising
that has been obtained during the
past year or two; for I believe it is
within even so short period as this,
that advertising, in general, has made
itself felt and understood by the pub
lie. The inclination of the latter,
nowadays, is to meet the advertiser
halfway; to seek the advertisement
instead of accepting it when 1t hap
pens along.-Art in Advertising.
