In all the current talk about self.

Ricans and the Fillpinos, not much at
tention has been paid to the rights and
capacities of another subject class,

schoolboy capable of self-governmenti
Can he be induced to think of school
regulations, not merely as rules to be
obeyed-when he cannot evade them
but obligations to be cheerfully ac-

Chicago has been attempting an ex-
pertinent in this direction. The boys
have been a share in the government OF
several of its schools. They have q
voice In making rules, and they are ex-
pected to help enforce them. The plan
is simple. Boys whose conduct Is ex-
emplary, and who use their influence
to induce others to obey the rules, are

of honor. Most of the boys, 1t Is said,

CHOSEN -lrlDuueS, VINO take an active
part in enforcing the regulations. This
post Is much coveted. 1t does not al
ways seem great fun to obey rules but
to enforce them Is quite another and
much more acceptable matter. The
principal who began the Chicago ex-
pertinent gives at least one good reason
for it. He says that the boy who grows
up with the idea that the good order
of the school is solely the teachers duty
to enforce, will probably become the
kind of citizen who thinks that it is not
his concern to be troubled about abuses
in government. He will be too busy or
too lazy to go to the caucus in his dis
trict, or too cowardly to give assistance
In endeavors to detect and punish po-
utical frauds. This is true. On the
other hand, the boy "citizens" who help
to make and enforce school rules are
not likely as men to become Doodle
aldermen, voting franchises for a bribe.
but are very much likely to help send
sneh criminals to the penitentary.

Pann Under Martial Law.

Pana, ILL.,, April ll.-Business, which
was interrupted by the rioting yesterday,
has been resumed, and the city, under
martial law, is quiet and orderly.
MISS Felix, of the Harrison hotel, who
was shot while waiting ON guests, will
probably die.
All deputies have been disarmed and the
soldiers alone control the city.
The Penwell and Pana mines are not in
operation today, and the negro miners,
feeling secure under military protection,
swarm the streets and mingle freely with
the white strikers.
1t was found today that six miners at
the Penwell mine were wounded in yes

ley, colored; Client Rowland, colored
Louis Whitfield, colored; c. Fl. Dorsey
colored; Martin Whiteman, white; Al

The usual knot of people that had
gathered on the sidewalk to look on,
as people always do when horse falls
down, saw in this case something that
was new to at least some OF them. The
horse, the off one of pair hitched to
truck, had gone down on a snow-cov-
cred and slippery asphalt pavement.
The driver cleared away all the har-
ness, loosed all the fastenings so that
the horse would have perfect freedom
of movement, and then did the one
thing that was new. He got from the
truck a big piece of burlap bagging
and went back to the horses head and
prepared to place 1t under the horses
forefeet. He spread 1t under the
horses off forefoot first, because that
was the one he came to first coming
from the truck, arranging it on the
ground close to the foot and then lift
ing the foot and leg and pushing the
burlap under it.
Then he went around the horses
head to repeat the operation with the
nigh foot, and when he got all ready
and had got hold of the horses foot to
lift ii, the horse lifted his foot him.
self, while the driver simply carried
it forward to it's proper place on the
burlap. Then, with this good, secure
hold for his feet the horse got up on
the slippery pavement with no diff
Guilty whatever, and the driver hooked
him up again and drove on.

The sexes show an equal per cent of

In an address to the Municipal
Judges association of Connecticut
Judge Simeon e. Baldwin advocated
the revival of the whipping post. Judge
Baldwin is an ex-President of the
American Bar Association, a dstin-
gulshed writer on legal topics, and a
jurlst of the highest repute. He be-
lieves that the science of penology has
been refined beyond the point of use
fulness, and that IN retaining only
hanging and Imprisonment as punish
ments for crime the deterrent effect of
punishment has lost much force. Evil
IDENTIFY Judge Baldwin is not In sym
PATTY with those who believe in turn
ming the penitentiaries into hospitals
for the persuasive correction of crimi-
nal tendencies. 1t Is what he says about
the reformatory power of the whip
with the young, however, that is of
chief interest. He contends that many
young men and boys would have been
spared a criminal career and averted
from ultimate capital punishment had
the law permitted the Judges who pass
ed upon their first offenses to apply the
punishment in the form of ten or TWEEN
ty lashes of the whip. Undoubtedly
this would be the result in some cases,
but others of more physical courage
would prefer the whip to a term iu
prison or the reformatory. The prob
lem of penology is not so much to make
the punishment fit the crime as it is to
make Ii fit the individual

taken from the slums at a tender age
by a family, and who repaid the kind
ness of her foster parents by trying

tendencies In the young manifesting
themselves despite environment are not
unusual. But the New York society

1t Is a striking feature of our leglsla-
ton that a majority vote in Congress
may begin a war, while a t~o-thirds
vote is required to end it. a declara-
ton of war by Congress Is like an or
binary Legislative enactment. To au-
thorize it, the two houses must act con-
currently, and it must receive the APP
prevail of the President. The formal
conclusion of war. however, is reached
only by a peace treaty, which, like
other treaties, must be negotiated by
the President and approved by a two
thirds vote in the Senate. This is much
more difficult to accomplish than 1t is
to get majority vote In each house. At
first glance 1t looks as If the founders
of the republic intended to make II
easier for the nation to declare war
than to withdraw from one; to begin
trouble than to end it. They evidently
believed that in international relations
the States would act as 4 unlt-that
party lines would dlsappear-and the
two-thirds requirement would serve as
salutary conservative measure. II
has come to pass, however, that treaties
submitted to the Senate are looked
upon as the acts of administrations
that are in power, and because of this
have been supported, with few excep-
tons, by Senators of the dominant
party, and opposed by the political OPP
ponents. 1t rarely happens that any
party has a two-thirds majority in the
Senate. In consequence, it is usually
so difficult to secure ratification that
the Senate has not inaptly been termed
the graveyard of treaties" The num-
Der that have failed to find approval Is
large.

that no one ever has any sympathy

tiers into negotiations to purchase coun-
1erfeit money to pass on his neighbors,
