it tells the story of one Joel Gay, who
is trying to bring his claim before con-
gress and establish his rights to valu-
able property in the city of Minneapolis
After many failures and disappointments
help comes to him through the hands of
Louise Densmore, the daughter Of one of
the senator's, who becomes interested,
and convinced of Gays rights. Having
persuaded her father to stand sponsor
for the bill, she sets about to lobby for
it, and wins enough votes to carry it
through. One vote, however, that of
Senator Bent, is given in exchange for
her fathers. to carry Bent's bill for the
sale of government land in Arizona Vic
tory is assured, when Gay discovers that
the land bill is a svindle, and although
1t means loss of fortune to Joel, it means
even more, as his poverty must still
stand as a, barrier between him and the
woman he loves, the beautiful and
wealthy Miss Densmore Still he does
not hesitate, and persuades her father
to draw back from the support of the

In the meanwhile an unseen force has
been working for him in the person of
Senator Dinsmores son, whom he has
saved from prof1igate life, and who has
interested a group of wealthy men in
the Gay claim.
But the interest of the play does not
center entirely around Joel and Louise
There are many characters in the play
and all are so skillfully drawn and inter-
woven in the comedy that it makes a
play OF ever changing pictures and alb
sorbing interest.

To Save Juvenile OTenders,
From the Baltimore News


The Washington Star expresses a gratih-
cation that is felt not only by itself, but by
the people of the District of Columbia gen
orally, over the action Of the House District
committee in reporting favorably the bill
introduced in the House by ReDresentatiy
Pearre of Maryland and in the Senate by
Mr.. Mcmillan to save juvenile offenders
from the evil results of incarcerations In
the jail and workhouse, where such in
fiuences prevail as undoubtedly tend to de-
grade them and prevent the progress in
their case of wholesome efforts for reform
1t is a step along the pathway that leads
from the old-style notion of making crimi-
nal of a juvenile to the view that every ef-
fort should be made to reform juvenile Of
tenders instead of combining the effort to
punishment.
The Star hopes to see both houses take
prompt action in passing the measure, a
hope that will be generally shared Wash
ington already has a board Of children 8
guardians, whose object is to save Juveniles
from evil influences and surroundings. This
bill broadenS the powers of this board and
aids 1t materially in its work among the
children who may come under its special
care. 1t also affords relief to the judges of
the police courts. who will no doubt well
come an opportunity by which they can
avoid committing young offenders to the
company of hardened criminals and sur
roundings where the stain Of crime and ais
grace may be placed indelibly upon them.
Representative Pearre has been partic-
ularly active in behalf of the bill in the
House District committee, and he Will re-
ceive the hearty commentator Of his Mary
land constituents for his services in this d.
rection. A striking feature of the bill Is a
clause providing for the trial Of cases in
vovins children separate and apart from
the trial of other cases. This strengthens
and completes the purpose of removing the
child offender as far as possible from the
stigma of crime and saving him from the
influences that tend to degrade him and
confirm him In a life Of evil. Congress cam
imDOrtanca a pnea
that contains such possibilities for good as
this.

A strong Appeal for the Anacostia.

The statement relative to the needs OF
the Anacostia presented today to the COM
mittees of Congress having charge Of river
and harbor improvements by Mr.. Thomas
w. Smith, chairman of the Board of Trade
committee on these improvements. is a
convincing argument for the inclusion of
this item among those to be appropriated
for at this session of Congress. Mr.. Smith
goes into the history of the stream to show
its former Importance and its present needs.
The case, thus stated. is one OF the strong
est appeals for action which has been con-
sidered by Congress In late years In con-
nection with the river and harbor improve
ments.

parishes. The commission expresses the
hope that the substitution of other priests
for the frfars may be accomplished through
the Catholic Church itself, whose best in
terests are to be conserved by granting
the people of the Philippines an ecclesias-
tical administration suited to their needs
and to their prejudices.
While the status of the friars Is thus
matter largely Of church government,
financial problem Of some magnitude is
involved in the case by reason of the fact
that the lands which these religious orders
now hold under title which may not be
successfully assalled must be taken over
by the government. The cost of purchase,
however, would probably not be dispro-
portionate to the advantages which would
Immediately flow from the demonstration
that the American government proposes to
relieve the natives of the intolerable bur-
den of monastic domination. AS the COM
mission indicates. the enterprise could be
so financed as to bring a large return to
the insuar government, the surplus OF
which could be utilized for the purposes
of establishing and maintaining a compre-
hensive school system. for which the peo-
pie are eager.
On the strength of this recommendation,
which follows the lines of the editorial
correspondence Of The Star published
few months ago. there should be no hesi-
tation on the part of the United States
in assailing the problem of the friars with
courage and determination. Properly ham
died, this matter could doubtless be so ad-
justed as to involve no friction with the
Roman Catholic Church. The question can
not be ignored. The friars must not be
permitted to return to the islands to grind
the natives as landlords and virtual pro-
vincial masters. to suggest to the suscep-
tible people that the change of sovereignty
has brought no real amelioration of con-
dition, and thus to encourage the insur-
rectos to remain In the field and foment
trouble between the natives and the civil
authorities. The lands owned or claimed
by the orders, aggregating 403, 900 acres out
of a total of about 100000 acres held un-
der private title in the entire archipelago
must be taken over by the state by some
process and thrown open to settlement
and private ownership. If this step be not
taken and especially II the friars be forced
upon the F'ilipinos the Philippines problem
will remain far from solution for years to
come.

The belief is generally accepted through
| out the country that no outsider can ever
hope to solve the mystery Of New York
| politics. The game is played In that state
by rules which obtain nowhere else, and
| such combinations are effected as puzzle
all who attempt to fathom and explain
them.
There Is just now a case IN point. Last
year while Richard Croker was engaged in
humiliating David B. Hill he had inval-
| liable assistance from Hugh Mclaughlin
The Brooklyn boss stood by the Tammany
boss, and their joint influence defeated Mr.
Hill both in the state convention and at
the national convention. Had Mr.. Hill
been able to command the assistance of
Mr.. Mclaughlin he could have named his
partys candidate for governor, and been
selected himself at Kansas City as New
Yorks representative on the platform
committee. He was particularly desirous
of the honor at Kansas City. but the Nc
Laughlin people were obdurate, and Mr..
Croker won.
Mr.. Mclaughlin IS now at his winter
home in Florida and has been interviewed
there on the political questions of the
day. He answered rather evasively on all
points but one. He declined to discuss the
local New York situation. He intimated
rather than said outright that neither Mr.
Bryan nor Mr.. Cleveland should think of
running for President again. He put the
matter of the reorganization of the party
aside But when he was asked who would
be a good man to lead the democratic
party if 1t should be reorganized," he an
swered pointedly and with emphasis Gov.
Hill is the biggest man in the democratic
party, any other party in this coun-
try
Now when did Mr.. Hill attain this statue
in the estimation Of Mr.. Mclaughlin?
Since last summer? What has he done
since then to accomplish It? His canvass
for Mr.. Bryan was not brilliant. but rather
perfunctory. And since the election he has
not been particularly active. Or did Mr..
Mclaughlin hold this opinion of Mr.. Hill
while he was aiding Mr.. Croker in putting
him down? And, if 50, what was his OBJ
ject in thus allying himself with local
boss OF coarse fiber and instincts against
"the biggest man in the democratic
party? What had Mr. Hill done to de-
serve such treatment, and what good could
come to the party from administering it?
Doubtless these questions are easily an
swered from the New York viewpoint. but
not from any other viewpoint. But if Mr..
Mclaughlin is now Mr.. Hill. $ ally in an
effort to secure control of New York's
vote in the next democratic national con-
vention it means much for Mr.. Hills am
bition to control the nomination of that
convention.
