The republican party has placed
at the head of their county ticket,
in this grand presidential year, a
man whose record as republican
has been clean and square cut.
He was born in the border state of
Missouri. and his political prin>
ciples were inculcated in him at a
time that tried mems souls. He
has never at any time wavered in
his support of republican princi-
ples. He received his nomination
at the hand of the republican county
convention by reclamation. The
democrats and populists practically
conceded his election, and failed to
place a man on their ticket
1t remained for disgruntled man,
who heretofore has called himself ID
republican, to insult the voters of
this county, who will see to it that

Seyenty-Eiya Cent Gas.

II Senator Kyle is In dead earnest-and
there is no reason for not accepting in good
faith his declaration to The Times-the Sem
ate chamber will be full OF gas In about six
weeks. He has served notice that IL his
75-cent-gas bill is not reported from the
District Committee in forty days he will
call it up by resolution and move its consid-
Grafton in open Senate. II is altogether
probable that the South Dakota Senator
viii have to do as he says, because one OF
the most unlikely things to happen within
forty days is report frCn the Senate Dis
trict Committee upon his or any other cheap
gas bill. This conclusion Is warranted by
the fact that even one-dollar gas sticks
in the era ws OF those members of that com
mittee who are fayorably inclined to the
present niOhopoly-therc are six OF them. 1t
is not to be imagined, therefore, that they
will come up to Senator Kyle's expectation
in tie matter OF the bill he has at heart.

this will be done. But it's dollars to dough-
nuts that no cheap-gas bill will be forth

! they have not degraded themselves by ac-
cepting aid.
by the adoption Of such policy it is also
made possible to distinguish the sheep from
the goats. Those that refuse to work, if
they are physically able to do so, furnish
themselves the proof that they are not only
undeserving of assistance, but by proclaim
ing themselves mendicants, pure and sim
pie, should be looked after by the police.
One Of the most important featur
therefore, of any scheme of general charity
is the provision for giving employment
to those that apply for aid, and in this
everybody can help. Housewives who have
more sewing to do than they can do Them
selves, or who stand in need OF other do
mestic help, ought to communicate with
the organizations above named and fur
nisl them with the means Of affording en-
ployment. In the case OF men, there is a
multitude of work that can thus be disposed
OF, greatly to the benefit of the community.
Ii there is only little cooperation the
problem OF mendicancy and pauperism IN
the District can be very much simpliried.

Gamblers Must Go.

Like a bomishell charged with dynamite
and nitro-glycerine. theexpose of The Times
has fallen among the gamblers and their fol-
lowing at Stegmaiers place. near Badens-
burg, and the sounds proceeding from that
direction are mixture of fgnashing OF teeth
and curses loud and deep against the peo-
Pies newspaper. In pleasing contrast to
these ebulhtions, and of infinitely greater
concern TO The Times, are the praises of
the respectable people of Prince Georges
county, who commend this paper for its
vigilance, its energy and its fearlessness.
Our Maryland ncighbors are thoroughly
aroused in this matter. States Attorney
Roger Bells has buckled on his armor of
law and justice, and is ready TO rush upon
the enemies of law and order without delay.
He declares that he will smitc and spare
not, and unless Roger Bells has changed
very much, ne will do just as he says. There
is every reason to believe and To hope that
he will have the active support of Gov.
Lowndes. Much Will depend, of course
upon the attitude of Sheriff Underwood,
but so far nothing has come to the surface
to raise Il suspicion that he will not do his
full duty

The Proposed Department Of Labor

Whether Representative Babcock's bill
creating the Department OF Labor, "a nj max
ing its chief Cabinet officer, becomes
law or not, there can be no question that
it deserves TO te. for the enormous interests
of labor ard the many involved problems
they present call for larger recognition
at the hands of the government than they
have received so far. Important as are
the concerns of agriculture, which are now
represented in the councils OF the Chief
Executive, they are not whit superior
to those OF labor. Indeed, the latter prob
ably claim q greater share of Importance
because of their diversified character.
Judging from the language of the bill Ind
what Mr.. Babcock has said regarding il,
his purpose seems to bc to raise the already
existing Bureau of Labor to the dignity OF
an executive department, and transform the
commissioner into a secretary, with the
necessary assistants and complement OF
clerical help. or course, the mere form OF
the creation of such a department would he

or later there is a complete revolution in

by natural or artificial causes, and IL may
be that the time is about to come when
not only a check is TO be put upon Great
Britain's further colonial expansion. but
even the decimation OF her possessions be-
gun. This is all the more possible as there
is hardly nation in Europe, excepting pos
sibly Denmark and Greece neither OF which

any scheme TO despoil her of some of her
real estate
There is hardly a doubt but the repa rti-
tion OF Africa upon entirely new lines
must come sooner or later Whether the
first steps towards it are TO be taken at
this time will depend largely upon En-
peror William. II he can form an alliance
against England strong enough TO hope for
success, the great conflict may be 4 thing
of tomorrow; if not, 1t is deferred to some
more opportune time.

The Partition of Africa.

or the continent OF Africa, which bids
fair to play n much more conspicuous
part In the history of nations than it has
done hitherto, about 22,0CO,G0O square
miles remain unappropriated by any of the
nations OF Europe OF the remainder nearly
5000 900 square miles. with a population
of about S2,0CO,OOO souls, are portioned
among Great Britain, which, of course, has
the lions share of population: France, which
owns the largest ares; Portugal, Germany,

Congo state; Turkey claims Egypt and Tri-
po.l-but these are practically owned by
Engiand-and then there are the Liberian
republic, the Boer State and Swaziland,
which is under protection of the Beers.
BY hook or crook England has sought TO
extend her domain. and though France,
Germany, and Italy have also done some
thing in that line, yet none of these has
had the experience or hardihoOd in the
matter of land grabbing which John Ball
has acquired from a long and varied prac-
tice. History, however teaches that sooner

The uncertain quantities are the consta-

would be more correct TO say that they are
certain quantities, in that ii appears to DE
the universal opinion of the people in that
section OF Prince George county that these
Officers are not TO he relied upon under
any conceivable circumstances. But as an
offset to their possible or probable delin-
quency, comes the assurance that special
consta will be sworn in to serve the va
rious processes and to guard against any
collusion with the Walton Clubhouse gam
blcrs and crooks.
Best of all, in this fight against the gam
blcrs is the support which the officials are
sure TO get from the moral sentiment OF the
community. The order and decency-loving
people OF Prince George county do not
propose TO have their county infested by the
class of toughs that are usually the hangers
on at gambling dens. Pronounced public
opin Oh like this is not only the surest stiInu-
liant. hut also the stanchest support of
public officials, and hence the uprooting OF
the WALTON Clubhouse crowd, .et Id omne

another, that the people OF the District
should not complain of paying $1.5O fol
gas. This means, IL true, that there are
six men who will do all they can to
prevent a favorable report being made
upon any cheap'gas bill.
Notwithstanding this somewhat discour-
aging outlook, the people OF the District
should leave no stone unturned TO secure
what they SO earnestly desire. They should
press the matter of cheap gas upon the
attention OF Congressman, in season and out
OF season. Nor should they confine their
proselyting efforts TO the Senate, but labor
earnestly and prayerruily with members
of the House of Representatives,, for it is
pretty certain that any cheap-gas bill.
should it pass the Senate, will strike u
big snag when 1t comes To the District Com
nrttce OF that body. In the meantime it
Will be Interesting to observe how Congress-
lien who, on the Iustings, proclaim eternal
hostility TO monopolies and trusts, fall
lovingly into their arms as soon as they
get To Washington.
Whether Senator Kyle's bill becomes
law or not here's more power TO his elbow,
for he is for cheaper gas, anyhow, and may
be counted upon to help the good cause
along.

Must Help Themselves.

The Associated Charities and Citizens
Relief Committee have hit upon the only
rational plan of helping people that are
in need. 1t is to make them help themselves
just as far as 1t lies within their power
to do SO. This is the plan frequently pointed
out by The Times as best calculated to
check pauperism and help people in pre-
serving their self-respect aEd remaining or
becoming useful members of society.
Nothing does 50 much harm as indiscrim-
mate almsgiving. Instead of raising up 1t
drags down. 1t converts the momentariIy
helpless person into a periodical, if not
chronic, mendicant, and not infrequently
lays the foundation for a career OF vice and
crime. All persons that ask for assistance
are not beggars, and in order to keep them
from becoming such they should be put in
a position to do such work as they are able
to do and to earn what they get. 1t is
better for them that this course should be
pursued, for they will feel that they have
given something for something, and that

NEW POKER DECK.
Eleven and Twelve Are the. New
Cards.

Eleven and Twelve Are the New
Cards.
New York World.
A serious DRAWBACKS TO the general intro
ductiou of poker into the parlor has al
ways been that the number Of people who
can sit in game has been necessarily
limited To four or five.
The ideal game of poker is with five
players. On the deal twenty-five cards
are exhausted. That leaves twenty-seven
in the deck from which the players may
draw. Less than that number in reserve
is likely 10 see the deck exhausted on the
draw, which makes IL necessary To go to
the discarded cards to complete the draw
a very unsatisfactory arrangement.
To meet this objection, and to make 1t
possible for a party OF eight to sit around
table, a new deck has been made that
contains sixty. The new cards are the
eleven and tweive-spUts in each suit. The
new deck is known in the trade as the
full house."
The addition Of the additional cards in
wolves no change in The rules of the game,
although il will upset all present theories
of cha noes in the dra W , and the card siia rps
will have 10 do some new figuring.
The inrrodu ction of the eleven and Twelve
materially increases the possible number
of full-hand combinations, increases the
possibilities OF fiushes and straights, and
adds an additional and NEST delightful un-
certainty.
One card manufacturer says that the
objection TO the new cards is the great
similarity upon a casual glance between
the eleven and twelve-sputs. The idea is
not new one.
In 1879 Leary of New York obtained
letters patent upon decks OF cards con-
tanning eleven and twelve-spots, and also
on deck that carried the suits to thirteen.
making deck of sixty-four cards. Six
years later the same manufac cturer took
out patents on decks that ran the suits up
as high as twenty spots. Nothing was
ever done, and the patent has long since
expired.

Nearly every one OF the European govern

duty IL is to look after the industrial inter-
osts OF TIE country. This is notably the
case in Belgium, where the Minister OF In

In the United States, with its laboring
classes composed of natives and foreigners,
and its labor interests constantly growing
and becoming more diversified and more
complex, the enlarged powers and dignity
which Mr.. Babcock's bill is intended TO
confer would be peculiarly appropriate.
