Things are looking badly for profess
sional politicians at Washington. Ac-
cordlng to World special the Presi-
dent has turned down three National
Committeeman who wanted patronage.
Addicks of Delaware named man for

Yerkes of Kentucky we're likewise turn

mentioned the nonresident member

capital Is less now than it was when he
was Democrat. Apropos of all this
Is an interesting special to the New
York Evening Post which we quote as
follows: Clinton Rogers Woodruff of
Philadelphia was among the Presidents
visitors this morning. Mr. Woodruff is
Chairman of the Dependencies Com
mittee of the National Civil Service Re-

made the emphatic statement, with the
expressed hope that 1t might be spread
everywhere, that In three branches of
the public service he should exclude
political influence of every sort. direct
or Indirect. These are the army, the
navy, and the colonies. In domestic of
fees having any political character, fit
ness being first reasonably assured, and
other things being equal, political con-
siderations would be allowed n legiti-

mentioned. he declared, there should not
be one iota of a concession to politics

Meeker. Col. Jan. 21.-Wolves freed
Roosevelt last night. The rough-rider
sailed forth alone in the evening from
keystone ranch, and as he did not re-
turn for supper a search party was or.
ganized. They found him up a tree
with six dead gray wolves lying ON the
ground about him. The rest of the
pack was scattered by the dogs of the
searching party.
Roosevelt said he saw wolf and
fired at it. The animal was wounded
and set up ye4ping. Other wolves
answered. and number of the ami
mails that came near We're killed The
hunter kept away from the thickets

berS Of gray wolves about him became

safety to climb a tree. In doing so

eued after being prisoner four hours.

The Proposed New Marriage Law

A few years ago there were serious
complaints against Wisconsin, by the
ncighboring states, on account Of the
laxity Of her marriage laws. Wiscon-
sin border towns were the Meccas of
runaway couples and Of those who de-
sired to enter the marriage state has
tily, because no marriage license was
required. Many Minnesota families
were from time 10 time scandalized or
grief-strcken because their young
children slipped over into Wisconsin
and got the matrimonial knot tied
without the parental consent.
For a few years, however, there
has been law on the Wisconsin stat
ute books remedying this evil, and
the border towns in the state have
ceased to be ''Gretna Green" for i'm
pulsive and love-struck youth. Some
of our legislators now propose to 90
to the other extreme, and make mat
rimony as difficult in the Badger
state as it formerly was facie. A bill
has been introduced providing that no
persons can marry who are suffering
either from hereditary insanity or in
sanity caused by vicious habits or the
use Of drugs; from consumption or
various other diseases. Also that
every person who wishes to marry
must 90 before an examining board
of three surgeons, to be appointed in
each county of the state, by the coun-
ty Judges and pass a satisfactory eX-
animation before receiving a license.
In addition, all male candidates for
matrimony under % years of age, and
all female candidates under Is, must
produce the written consent of their
parents before they can procure Ii
cense. Clergymen or magistrates
who perform the ceremony for coup
les not duly qualified under the law,
are subject to the penalty of fine and
i'm prisonment.
This is truly Draconian piece of leg
islation, and we doubt if it will pass.
If it does, the majority of Wisconsin
candidates for matrimony will prob
ably cross the state line and have the
ceremony performed in common
wealth where the requirements are
not so severe. If there could be such
a law as that proposed in Wisconsin
operative in all the states it would no
doubt prove salutary and it's beneii-
cent results would be seen in future
years in more stalwart progeny, as
well rs in fewer divorce eases. There
cannot be very much improvement in
our marriage and divorce laws until
a constitutional amendment is adopt
ed authorizing congress to pass a uni
form law operative in all the states.
Such Il law would solve the problem
Of the stamping out Of polygamy, as
well as the prevention of ill-sorted
and improper marriages.

GREAT SORROW IN LONDON.
Grfef-Stricken Crowds at the Bulletin
Board at Mansion House.

London, Jan. 22.-The gloomy faces
of the crowds necessarily approaching
the bulletin board at the Mansion
House indicated how little the public
hoped to receive better news of the
condition of the queen. Men of all
ages and conditions, women and even
children were content to spend a long
time in awaiting their turn to get
within reading distance of the board.
The grief of all was evident and the
relapse announced ut o'clock was
only too generally anticipated. Never
We're there SO many black ties in the
city before the actual arrival of Il
time of general mourning, and nobody
mingling with the crowds could doubt
for moment that everybody In them
had Il keen personal interest in the
queens condition.
Mr.. Balfour. the first lord of the
treasury, ana the children Of the
Duchess of Connaught, started for OS-
borne in the afternoon. Mr.. Balfour,
it is said, went as the representative
of the premier, Lord Salisbury. The
summoning Of Mr.. Balfour and the
Connaught children was regarded as
indicating that the end of Queen Vie
toria was fast approaching.
There WAS 4 remarkable scene out
side Of the Mansion House early IN
the afternoon. On the receipt of the
alarming reports something resembling
a groan was uttered by the hundreds
of people assembled and then some
one started to sing the national
anthem. All heads were barred and In
4 moment the crowds were singing
God Save the QuecnE" with a fervor
proving how earnestly they wished for
her recovery. The passengers in pass
