the subject. there is demand for
other changes In the constitution that
would no doubt make 1t easy to pass
"A bill for constitutional convention.
'The article covering elections Is un-
satisfactory In several respects. There
are three amendments to this article
awaiting legislative action. all or
which passed the general assembly IN
1899. If a majority of the members
i'm each house vote FOR them at this
session, they will be submitted to the
voters at the election in November
and If approved By them they VIII
he incorporated in the fundamental
law. These amendments provide for
the enactment of laws to permit per-
sonal registration in cities, the eltmin-
aton of the numbers on ballots ana
10 permit the Use of voting machines
instead of ballots. There is another
amendment introduced at this session
by Representative Hall. of Allegheny.
10 change the section prescribing the
method of apportioning the state INTO
senatorial districts. Mr.. Han would
leave the section as II stands. except
the number of senators. He holds
that 1t is impossible to apportion the
state under the present constitution
into fifty senatorial districts without
violating the provisions prescribing
the method to be followed. He be.
licves in making the total number OF
senators elastic. to be increased when
il is not possible to contine 1t to fifty
senator's but not to go below that
number"
But most important of all. the con
stitutinnal provision relating to legis'
lation for cities is unsatisfactory and
antiuua,ed. Whatever may be the
theoretical objection to special legis-
lation. the division of all cities into
only three classes has wrought hard
ships in municipal development which
"A new convention IF constitution re-
visers would undoubtedly remedy.

mucn work Tor conStl-
Y tutional convention, eX-
perience and new devel-
spments calling for considerable revis-
Ions of the constitution of 1874, the
proposition made in certain quarters,
to rush the calling of one as il it were
of the utmost Importance TO revise the
constitution on galop. does not com
mend itself TO the Judgment of the
judicious.
"lf," says the Harrisburg correspond
ent of the Philadelphia Ledger, "a bill
were passed for constitutional con-
vention it could be submitted to the
people next November and the dele
gates elected at the same time, should
he voters approve of the convention,
t could organize next December and
complete its work in two or three
months, and the proposed constitution
.ould be submitted at a special elec-
ion in the spring. 1t would not be nee
'ssary to enact any law to enforce such
/ provision (as the curtailment of the
veto power) as the convention might
insert in the new constitution TO con-
ipe the governors powers TO an ap-
lioval or veto of separate items APP
,ropriating public funds. 1t would en-
,orce itself as the provision relating to
The same subject in the present con-
stitutiOn does"
IL tlle only or the chief reason for a
constitutional convention We're the r,-
strlction of the gubernatorial veto
power, ii might well be asked whether
the game would be worth the candle.
ii Is extremely doubtful If conven-
tion could be elected which would in
terfere with the executives present
prerogative as defined i'm the recent
decision of the Supreme court. That
power Is generally regarded as both
Wholesome and well placed. 1t is a
valuable check upon legislative
thoughtlessness or eNtravagance, and
while not likely To be used save in
times Of admitted necessity. its exist
ence Is an excellent safeguard.
But AS the Ledger correspondent
points out elsewhere in his review OF
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1901-04-30

makes, for himself and for the business
men of New York city, simply dupli-
cate what is heard from business and
professional men everywhere. Scarce
ly any" of the boys or girls who enter
Office or store has q clearly formed
handwriting. Few of them have been
tolerable spoilers. Lastly and surely
he tells of their proficiency in wrong
pronunciation. bad grammar. and COM
mand of slang except where the home
training has corrected these; the
schools have not.
The bad spelling will continue as a
matter of course while the fad of
teaching reading without spelling"
continues. The art of spelling and
writing correctly. on which Mr.. Sted-
man rightfully lays such stress, never
can be acquired under this improved"
method. Some day our business men
all over the land will rebel against the
cramming system. the numberless side
fadss the vague ideas about arts,
olosies, and so-called studies" referred
to by Mr.. Stedman: and will insist on
better teaching of "the three RS as
he does.
When they come to that time they
will discover that the things 10 be
thrown out have not been put into the
curriculums by the teachers. but have
been forced upon them; also that for
teaching well what is most needful the
classes need to be small enough for the
teacher to give individual care to each
pupil. and to keep such daily record
and knowledge of each as will wholly
supersede the present examination and
promotion system.

On Changing the Capital.

ONE of the arguments ad-
- vanced in favor of substitute
~ ing Philadelphia in place Of
Harrisburg as the capital Of
the state undoubtedly have weight.
For one thing, the hotel accommnda-
tions of the larger city are much SUI
perior. on special occasions, when
political interest runs high Harris
burg is literally overcrowded. ami
those who prefer rest ut night to noise
and revelry are at a disadvantage.
Then. too, Philadelphia is a center
OF intellectual and public interests
which would be helpful to the officials
of the state government in many ways
now impossible at Harrisburg. The
big city nowadays draws to it the best
in all departments of life and thought:
and legislators who are honest and
earnest could hardly fail to stimu-
lated by the superior associations and
broadening influences of the better So
ciety the intellectual society. OF the
Quaker City. than which there is none
better anywhere.
Modern modes of travel have done
away with the early necessity for To-
eating the state capital near the geo.
graphical center of the commonwealth.
AS matter of fact. Philadelphia is
today easier of access to a majority
of Pennsylvanians than Harrisburg is.
Railroads enter it from all directions.
1t is on number of the main high
ways of travel. Harrisburg, though
not difficult TO get to, IS less favorably
located. And Its native life is slow
and malarial.
If the people want to vote on chang
ing the capital. now is certainly the
time to do it. A new capitol will soon
have to be built. If it is not to he
built in Harrisburg the fact should be
known. At the same time. we do not
believe that there is much likelihood
of a change. If we thought there
were, we should suggest TO the COM
monwealth the propriety of moving the
state government to Scranton.
