TIE TWENTIETH CENTURY
PROBLEM.

10 the Editor of the Alexandria Gazette:
Among all the various remarks as to
when the nineteenth century closes and
the twentieth century begins, l hav =
not seen single solution or explana-
ton of the problem, though as am not
close reader it may have escaped my
notice.
noticed in prominent daily recent
ly that the difference of opinion arose
from the fact that the enumeration OF
time did not begin with zero. Now
that is certainly mist AXE, and it is sur
prising that great and learned men
should differ on the subject.
The enumeration of time certainly
does begin at zero. The 0 point is that
at which the time b. c. leaves OF and
A. D. begios just as the 0 of the ther-
mometer marks the point from which
we count the degrees both ways. The
time B G.. might be written with mi
nus sign, thus-.360 years would indi-
.te $50 wears before we begin to count
time, or $50 B. G.
The first 365 days constituted the first
wear or the year /, A. d., and any date
u that year would be written thus,
February %, (of the year one), the
year really being counted in advance.
10 the same manner the first 100 years
constituted the first century and was
counted 10 advance, thus the year 20
was in the first century and the year
125 was in the second century, and so
on to the present time. always count
ing the year and century in advance.
But here is where some people seem to
stumble. Since it requires 100 years to
make century, therefore it requires
1900 years to make 19 centuries, and
by what precedes, counting 10 advance,
the 19.h century will not be com-
Dleted until miduieht of the 3lsr OF
December next. We are on the 1900 b
mile but have not reached the l9OOth
milestone.
We have adopted this method OF
counting in advance for all our reckon
ngs OF time; thus when the sun rises
on the first day OF February we will
say this is the first day of the second
month, and will continue to call 1t the
second month for % days.

LET THE PUBLIC MARK 1T.

The only distinctive feature assumed
by the Republican local canvass thus far
is the one presented in the columns Of
the Pioneer Press. 1t takes the dual form
OF charges against former Democratic ad-
mInistrauons and compliments of for
mer Republican administrations. It rep
resents the weakest and essentially the
most dishonest form Of advocacy 1t as
sumes all that is being contended for on
the one side, and begs the question on all
that Is claimed on the other.
In political campaigns. such as that
which is about to open, it is far from un-
usual that unguarded and untenable state
ments shall be put forward That is to
some extent to rbe looked for. 1t is so
recognized. Fearless political advocates
make allowance for it, and the cowardly
and dishonest ones avail themselves of the
opportunity it offers.
Our contemporary does not apparently
seek to enter the ranks of the fearless
advocates. If 1t maintains Its very pc
culiar methods of advocacy is must be
Classed among the cowardIy and essen
TALLY dishonest.
Why? Because It gives exceptional
prominence in isolated form to unsup-
ported and unqualified statements. Be-
cause it imposes such statements on It's
readers as Items Of news and matters of
undisputed fact. Because It applies its
news columns to an essentially dishon-
orable and unprofessionaI use. Because 1t
resorts to a cowardly makeshift which
all newspaper men understand, seeking to
make its news department carry a re-
sponsibility which its editorial depart
ment apparently refuses to assume.
The G o e will deal as nearly con-
vincingly as may be with the lying and
dishonesty presented claims of the Pho
neer Press as the campaign progresses.
For the present 1t merely seeks to direct
general attention to the cowardly and i'm
moral character which its advocacy OF
