The ElectOral Vote.

William Mckinley and Theodore Roose-
Welt were today formally declared to lie
chosen by the people Of the United States
as their President and Vice President for
the next term of four years. This deciara-
ton was the last act in the progress of the
process of election which was started In the
summer. 1t il a tribute to the stability of
the American political system that never
for moment after the day succeeding the
casting of the votes of the people for
electors in their respective states has there
been doubt as To the net result of today
count at the Capitol. Within u few days
from the balloting it was understood con-
iiuently by all Americans that if alive Nc
kinley and Roosevelt would receive 2j2
votes each for the offices to which they had
been nominated, aud that Bryan and Ste
yenson would receive 100 for the same
offices. The state polls having been COM
pieted. no shadow of question has rested
upon the purpose OF the men chosen In
those jurisdictions To follow their instruc-
tons in the fullest degree. The ceremony
today has thus been the final official record
i.g of duty performed in accordance with
the traditions which have relegated the cleo
toral college to the rank and function of q
recording board. This year there are no
split state votes. The college has di-
Vided exactly on state lines.

countries what is now being applied right
here in the United States. Within the past
twenty years the work of all the Christian
churches has taken on a very practical.
everyday character The old joke, which
for so long had a great run In irreverent
circles, about the visiting pastor who
handed q starving parishioper a tract and
left him. has disappeared. II IT ever fitted
any times. it certainly doesn't fit these
times. The churches today do not content
themselves with preaching. but are ex-
tersively engaged in works Of everyday util-
ity and everyday heipfulness. They help to
prepare people for employment and then In
many cases they help them find employ
ment. Not the Salvation Army alone has
honored itself by iabors of this patient and
practical description The results, as all
who have had opportunities of observation
confess. have been most gratifying from
every point of View.
When life and property again safe in
China the missionary and the merchant
will return to the field and it will be
strange If both do not show in their new
aciivities some lessons learned from last
years disasters. They may not have de-
served the criticisms that have been passed
upon them. The missionary certainly has
done much good But ii is prudent to heed
criticism even when not altogether de-
served: and evidently the Chinese require
very delicate handling both in the affairs
of this world and the next.

The Compulsory Crossing STOP.

The near-side rule will doubtless be well
coined back to the regulation book by a
large majority of citizens, who sincerely
believe that 1t is the safer method of stop
ping the street cars. involving no disad-
vantage to any material interest. Yet
there seems to be disposition in some
quarters. granting the efficacy OF the near
side rule. to demur at the proposition to re-
uuire the cars to be stopped at certain
crossings. with reference to the fire depart
ment's customary runs. whether there are
passengers to a,ight enter the cars or
not. There are in round numbers about
tD0 streets crossed by cars in the city. per-
haps 410. This includes all places where
passengers are taken on or put off the cars.
1t is the usual experience that car stops
at about half the crossings on the average
trip. 1t depends upon the time of day and
the traffic. Perhaps ~ per cent will suf-
flee basis for cxamina ton. There are
approximately hfty-five sixty places
where the cars are forced tn stop under the
regulations before crossing other street ear
tracks or steam railroad tracks. Calling
this number sixty and the total number of
street crossings on the car lines In the city
40 il appears that there are $50 crossings
ut which the cars row stop only when

Deducting this number. 1t appears that
there will even then remain more than :N1
crossings in the city at which the cars need
not stop before crossing. unless the traffic

80 crossings which the cars may now
cross unchecked. Commissioner mcfarland
proposes to require the companies to halt
their cars at twelve per cent. in order to
reduce to a minimum the chances of col
lsions with the fire apparatus. which may
prove as disastrous to the car companies
as to the fire department. Considering that
the chances are that the cars will stop at
these fOrty-two crossings half the time
anyway. the problem is reduced to the point
OF asking that the cars be stopped at only
q per cent of the city's street crossings

But still to increase its dimensions II tries,

The rich and the poor and the high and the

The wise and the foolish. the fast and the

With all the dissensions which 'mongst

When a nation obtains large share OF the
map,
You'd think it had trouble enough,
For It's hard to forgive and It's easy to
scrap
And governments pathway is rough
But the old-fashioned program they still
will pursue;
They are ever alert for possessions quite
new;
They reach out for Asia and Africa. too
Though you'd think they had trouble
enough.
And, when some one nation possesses the
earth
You'd think twould have trouble enough.
And yet 1t will hustle for all 1t is worth.
Contentment alas, is bluff
Already were trying to let down the bars
And travel through ether far off to the
stars,
And We'll presently try to assimiliate Mars,
For We never have trouble enough.
