CHILDREN OF THE VICIOUS
They Imbibe Hatred Of Authority
With Mothers Milk

Crime Is contagious and infections.
To the young and ignorant, to those
whose daily life has made them familiar
with crime. it has all the glamour and
attraction of chivalry and bravery The
bold robber. the cunningly planned
house or bank breaking, the street fight,
the homicide and the still more dreadful
incendary, are discussed with an eager
ness ard an awe not unmixed with ad-
miration.
With the children of the ignorant, the
poorly developed, the vicious. defying
the law seems like defyng a hated and
relentless foe. This hatred of author
ity is imbibed with the mothers milk.
Law to thsh represents nothing but
oppression. That is why they admire
THE law-breaker To them he is hero
he dares do something which is for
hidden. He d'efies the law!
That is often the material with which
we have 20 deal in our classrooms. The
child, even of honest parents, daily hab-
ituated to the sight of vice, soon comes
to lose his horror of it. Nature yields to
surroundings, or as Mile puts 1t: His
tory teaches the extraordinary suscep-
tibility of human nature to external in
fuences. and the extreme variableness
of those manifestations which are sup
posed to be universal and uniform"
The tendency 10 crime" may be n
phase of human character, but so is the
tendency to virtue" Mans body is an
imal and drags him down, but the soul
is spiritual and bears him up again. 1t
is the soul we must reach if we would
save the race. This is the teachers pro-
vince. The SOUL being immaterial, is
nourished and strengthened by ideas
only Can we make our teaching so
effective that ideas OF truth. and love,
and justice. and kindliness will pene-
trate the awakening soul and possess il
forever?--New York Teachers Quar-

POLITICAL CHIPS.

Every day sees the completion of
the tickets of Mayor Elmendorf, Judge
Callaghan and Judge Levy, and as
every day mergeS into another, the
uncompleted tickets keep pace and
make no progress.
There was an interesting meeting
yesterday afternoon in the White
building on Commerce street, by the
Callaghan leaders. This was to have
been the final meeting and the ticket
would have been completed, but
there was a place in the aldermanic
at-large ticket that needed fixing. Mr..
Ed. Braden, Jr.. was considered a
trifie too weak and while Judge Cal
laghan and Mr.. Braden stepped down
stairs to take something" the name
was eliminated" from the ticket.
This vacancy will be filed at another
meeting to be held this afternoon.
A delegation to support Mr.. Theo.
succeeded in placing that gentleman
on the ticket.
The ward aldermanic ticket was
completed as follows:
Ward Lee Kilgore.
Ward Wv. l.. Richter.
Ward 3-Thos. Johnston.
Ward 4-Chas. Il. Wilson.
Ward Ludwig Mahncke.
Ward 6-John Miller.
Ward &c. A. Denny.
Ward S-W. w. Johnson.
The Thos- Johnston for Third ward
on this ticket is contractor, not Thos.
b. Johnson, of the Light, who is an
independent candidate for city treas
urer
In the Elmendorf party, there has
been one or two changes, and one adj
dition to the ticket-Edward Dreiss
for treasurer and the pulling down of
Mr.. G.. Frasch as assessor in favor of
Paul Meerscheidt. 1t is said also Mr..
Chas. Sauer has been slated for audi
tor.
The Levy ticket will be filled out
this afternoon. City attorney, treas
urer, one alderman-at-large and al
derman for Ward s are to be select
ed.
A rumor was afOat today that an
assessment of $3.50 each was made
on the aldermen on the Callaghan
ticket The assessments on theLewy
mad ElmendOrf tickets could not be
learned, but they are likewise heavy.
