Gsnteel Poverty in Washington.

81 never saw so much genteel poverty be-
fore as exists in Washington, ID. c." writes a
Cabinet members wife in the January
Ladies' Home Journal. "You have no idea
how many of these Department clerks trem-
bic in their boots for fear Of losing their
positions with change of administration and
enforcement of the Civil Service rules. The
Departments unfit botn men and women for
any otper occupation. You would be sur
prised to know how many of the fashionable
society men are department clerks. Some OF
the most attractive among them get major
ity of their meals out of society. They rent
a room for n small amount, and dine out
every night, frequently getting lunch or a
breakfast from a friend. In return, they
makesit their business to bs entertaining and
always in a good hunior, ready to be OF ser
vice and to initiate now people into the
etiquette Of the place.

Principles Pointed Out.

Necessity for Steady Adherence TO Party
Principles Pointed Out.
Boston, Jan. 25.-Among the matters
touched upon by the executive commit
tee Of the Republican club Of Massachu-
setts. which held its annual meeting
Monday afternoon, was this: I'VE are
on the eve OF another great political
contest for the control of the national
house OF representatives. The impor-
tance Of this contest should not be under
estimated. The Republican party
should leave no stone unturned TO main
tain its supremacy in this great and i'm
portant body. A partial victory by
the enemies OF the great principles of
our party will give courage TO those who
In the last presidential campaign en-
deavored to gain control of the govern
meut upon a platform OF disorder and
financial discredit. The issues that con-
front our party cannot be overlooked or
belittled. 1t behooves every lover OF
good government and sound finance not
TO relax for a moment his steady ad-
herence to those principles upon which
the present administration was placed
In power. The forces OF evil are alert.
and there must be no cessation on our
part OF the vigilance upon which rests
the honor and integrity OF our country"
The present membership OF the club
Is 1887. During the past year the club
lost by resignation az members and by
death four Thirty-five members were
taken in during the year.

FRINGE ON THE CONSTITUTION

Among the sections said to be oonsid-
cred by the Constitutional revision COM
mission is one that reads As follows:
1.-The duties and powers Of the secre-
tary of state, attorney general ana gen
eral treasurer shall be such as may be
prescribed by law. The General Assem-
bly, shall provide by law for annual re-
ports from each OF said officers as 10 the
business In his department, the report OF
this attorney general 20 include the dispo-
sltion OF cases In which the state is In
terested."
1t has probably been remarked by per-
sons who have followed the work Of the
commission, so far as IL has been report
ed, that there has teen quite frequent
itching displayed to put fringe OH the
revised document by introducing details
that do not properly belong to Consti-
tuition. Wo incline to the opinion that
the above section is fine specimen OF
this sort of frippery. Why 1t is any part
OF q document OF the character OF Con-
stitution, the basis Of the whole govern
ment, on which the executive, legislative
and judicial structures are built, TO be
cluttered up with a'petty detail requiring
20 bs. n
sition of cases, or, indeed, any provision
or reports of any kind, 1t IL difficult to
understand. Such q provision Is prob
ably all right OF itself. Indeed, 1t seems
a very desirable provision. And there is
no positive harm, perhaps, in grating 1t
on the Constitution. But the objection
to 1t is none the less strong in that this
sort of stuff is not at all in accord with
the purpose OF Constitution which is
to lay down, es simply and broadly as
may he, the fundame ntal principles of
the government and make provision for
such mach inery as is necessary. The
aim should be, we should say, to keep
the document clear Of everything that
could possibly be embodied I'm statutory
law. IL the Constitution Is to provide
for annual reports, and rep orts Of a spe-
ciho kind IL might rs we'll take cogni-
zance Of no end of requirements and du-
ties OF state officials ana, indeed, the
commission would be quite as much JUS
titled In Incorporating the revised
statutes In the document and providing
that all legislative acts hereafter be
deemed part of the Constitution.
Don't put too much in the Constitu-
tion, gentlemen OF the commission. Keep
IL clear Of fringe and frippery. 1t Is a
fundamental law you are instructed to
report, and not batch OF rules and reg
ulationA
