The subject of too strenuous" eN-
changes of compliments between
friends was judiciously considered in a
recent Indianapolis suit 1t is a habit
of some rough but kindly and we'll
meaning men TO treat their friends
with cruelty in exchanging salutations.
A heavy slap on the shoulder. a punch
in the solar pleXus or a specie of the
hand severe enough TO dislocate the
finger joints is their common method
of expressing their friendly sentiments.
These unfriendly friends think that it
is a good joke to infiict mOmentary tor
ture on those whom they meet in jolly
intercourse To the victims of their
humorous strenuousness it is not such
a joke. The decision of the court in
the indianapolis case is printed in the
New York Law Journal and is the es-
sence of common sense on the subject.
Two citizens We're standing on the side
walk talking. one was aged man
of light weight. the other was a young
man of heavier build. y friend Of the
younger man passed by, a heavy, mus
cular person, who had the pleasant
habit of striking his intimates, whirl-
ing them around and calling them odd
Sardine" or similar phrases of affection
He played this part when he saw the
two citizens engaged in conversation on
the sidewalk. The elderly man was
thrown down and seriously injured
Suit was brought against the robust
individual who had caused the injuries
and a substantial judgment for dam
ages was obtained. From this iudg-
ment an appeal was taken. 1t was
claimed by the rough but kindly de-
fendant that he had meant no harm:
that he was a friend of the man whom
he had injured; that it was his habitual
way of treating his friends and that
the bad result was a mere accident for
which he ought not to be held pecuni-
arily responsible. The appellate Judge
in reviewing the case did not see II
in that way. He said: THE facts
shown are sufficient to condemn the
habit OF so-called 'horse-play' between
grown men. The defense relied upon
has been many times tersely expressed
by younger people in the phrase, L
didn't mean to- Plaintiff was injured
through no fault of his own. His right
to be secure in person was violated.
The appellant was responsible therefor.
His act was the primary cause of the
plaintiffs injury" 1t was further said
that the recklessness and total disre-
gard of consequences displayed by the
defendant implied legal malice and q
determination to infiict the injuries for
which the suit had been brought.
There was a constructive intent to COM
NIT injury. The injured person had a
right to be on the street in peace and
safety. This right was. violated and
there was no excuse. In view of the
minor morals involved this case 10 of
great interest. 1t should be warning
against the overstrenuousness Of yio-
lent friendship.

History does not afford a parallel in
stance of a people who in losing all in
the hazard of war gained so much as
has the BOer race in this late terrible
and protracted conflict At the begin
ming Of their contention with England
the Beers were the most obscure and
disregarded race of European stock on
the face of the earth. In the very ma
ture of things. if they had been let alone
the race would have been overwhelm-
ed and absorbed in course of time But
the war which wasted their country,
destroyed their homes, broke their po-
litical independence and nearly deci-
mated their numbers. has given TO the
race new and probably permanent
lease of life. 1t has emphasized their
nationality and established them as a
special people in the worlds respect
secured for them under the strongest
guarantees self-government with the
perpetuation of conditions calculated
to preserve their laws and language
with such provision in ready money for
the restoration of their homes and
farms as will enable them to replace
an antiquated and Outworn system
with one better suited to this age and
to the progress of their country. No
other country ever found itself pos
sessed through defeat of such striking
advantages. No race ever so establish
ed its character and secured a fixed
and honorable status in the world
through the process of losing its inde-
pendent national existence.

| ~ lar and things religious is too
| II sharply drawn in these days. II
| ~ 4 man is TO be truly religious. he
- must exercise his power couSci-
y autiously in every department of
G-J life. He must be loyal ANA ODE
oient TO his impulses in the discharge of
his duties as a citizen. He must do this
if he would be truly faithful To his
church. II is because men have created
the artificial line referred TO that we
have bad laws, incompetent and corrupt
administration. The smaller the govern
mental division the more likely we are
TO find evil conditions. Municipal ad-
miniStration. as a rule, is the worst. The
interest in national elections is always
greater than in any other, while the inter-
est in municipal elections is generally the
least of all. 1t is because of this that
We have usually more incompetent ad-
ministration in municipal government
than elsewhere
We must not be afraid of that word
politics. DO not consent to the ruin of
this word. The boss system is not poll
tics. Politics is authoritatively defined
as the science of government" We
have no more right to call this conspiracy
against the freedom of the people known
as the boss system" politics than we
have to call common, stupid lying by the
name of diplomacy. The remedy for
bossism is to be found only in the hearty
and intelligent cooperation of men of all
parties and of no parties in the work of
destruction. This, insist, is pre-emi-
nently a religious duty. If the church
has not enough influence to make us per-
form this duty, then there is something
radically wrong with the church.
There is a world of difference between
4 leader and boss. The leader says.
come on" the boss says. ''go on" the
leader cOnSults, the boss dictates: the
leader serves the people. the boss tyran-
nizeS the people; the leader plans. the
boss schemes; the leader works in day
light, the boss in darkness.
Let each church have its mems good
government club with meetings on a
weekday, committed to the work Of pre-
pairing the spiritual soil of the parish by
redeeming it from the noxious weeds OF
vice. crime and all unlawful acts and
deeds that hinder the progress of justice
and righteousness.
