AZ ~ MUNICIPALITIES

Il will not he long-it may not be
more than a month hence-before the
question Of municipal charters for Ho-
aolulu and Hilo and of village organiz-
ation for smaller places will have to be
taken up. Speaking of this matter
some time ago local contemporary
proposed the organization OF a young
mems municipal league. We do not
know why municipal league should
be vested with an age limit, especially
a limit which excludes the principal
taxpayers. What is better is league
embracing representative men. young
and old. who will discuss the civic
needs OF the towns and crystalline
their best thought in charters which
will finally be submitted to boards OF
freeh0lders for use in draughting the
ultimate measure. Such leagues could
prontably gather literature about city
charters from all over the United
States and from certain countries Of
the old world which have produced ac-
ceptable city governments. They could
hold weekly meetings, at which the
general subject or special features OF
II might be debated. Further than this
they could have addresses from men,
local and otherwise. who have. like Al
bert Shaw. made the ruling Of cities
the serious study Of years. In this
way some light on complex but vast
ly important problem could perhaps
be gained. After that II the young
men have any surplus energy they
might do well TO organize leagues for
putting good charter through at the
polls. IIn.y

for anterior ones.
Now AZ 10 the propriely OF keeping
Mr.. Roberts out We have a definite
warrant for Il IN certain established
facts. The Utah Representative-elect
made himself ineligible TO holding Of
fee under the United States by con
tracing a rolygamous marriage after
the passage of the law of 1882 forbid
ding such unions; he did not become
eligible under the amnesty proolama-
lions because he neglected TO comply
with their rules. He made himself
again ineligible by living in polygam-
Gus relations subsequent to the amnes-
ty and prior to the admission OF Utah
as a State. Furthermore he IL now
living In violation OF the statutes OF
the State he claims to represent
statutes passed to carry into effect
clause OF the Constitution which was
made a condition precedent to the ad-
mission OF Utah as State"
Upon these grounds the Outlook
holds that "the responsibility for de-
termining whether Mr.. Roberts is elig-
ible to represent his State rests with
Congress and that 1t cannot avoid that
responsibility: that 1t has clear
moral duty, in the exercise OF It's con-
stitutional powers, to refuse him ad-
mission: and that l. is even doubtful
whether 1t has the legal and certain
that It has not the moral right to over
rule an Act of Congress. adopted by

Some of the advocates of the eight
o'clock school opening idea hold that
an hour at class work in the morning
Is worth two hours in the afternoon.
Probably this is'true providing the pu-
pills have time to eat their breakfasts
and get them bit settled before reci-
tations begin. But to make a child
choke down hasty meal and rush to
school for an eight o'clock bell Is to so
upset him physically that he can do

The British Government is said. to
have already fixed the penalties 1t will
visit on the two Boer republics. An
indemnity covering the cost of the war
will be imposed ms a tax which British
officials will collect. The rumor also
prevails in London that Presidents
Kruger and Steyn and Transvaal State
Secretary Reitz will be banished and
that no Boer leader in the present
troubles will be permitted to represent
constituencies. Meanwhile, however,
the task of imposing these conditions
meets with unexpected obstacles.

The Advertiser cordially agrees with
the Henry plan. the more so in that It
would foist no extra burden Of cost
