TO OUR nBEsr cIrIzENsr

Many OF our best citizens" spend a
great deal Of valuable time in bemoan-
ing the low plane on which our affairs
are conducted, and yet these same best
citizens shrink from accepting any Of
fice that isn't handed to them on a
golden platter while tho presentation
is accompanied by the plaudits Of the
populace. A number Of prominent men
have been asked to stand for the vari-
Gus offices to be filled at the coming
city election, but they refuse because
there is apt to be contest in which
unpleasant things will be said
But there are men who have no such
qualms, and they are apt to be OF the
same species as tnose who hold the Of
fees now. We don't think It shculd he
beneath any man to aspire to be mayer
or a member of Council, and certainly
any honest, capable man conll perform
valuable public service in such a caN
pacity. We could take a leaf or two
out of our early history with profit.
Washington was Inclined to absolutely
refuse the Presidency till Hamilton and
his friends persuaded him that the SAC
riioe was necessary. A little of this
feeling Of responsibility would not be
amiss now
II has been suggested that since our
oest citizens are 80 prone to find fault
and they have ample provocation-
It would be instructive to print list
containing the names OF those who
have refused to allow their friends &c
consider them in connection with the
candidacy for public Office. We should
find included many Of those who have
most TO say regarding the mismanaga
ID ant OF our affairs. II there WAS even
time when we needed STRONG men and
an honest administration OF affairs
that time is now. and the man most tc
be respected is he who makes a sacri-
fee when sacrifice Is needed.

was given by Father Valentine, a Pas
sionist priest, in St. Paurs r. c..

whose benefit the lectures are given.
A large audience was present for the
opening lecture. the subject Of which
was: Religion Presupposes God-Does
He Exist?"
l. The introduction was a statement of
the fact that the world was fast drift
ing into iniidelity. The man of wealth
can get along without God. The scien-
tist will no longer claim the worlds at

istence of God and the standard of his

total denial that there is a God.

spirit of inhdelity fills the air and per-
vadcs the masses, until Christians even

lieve in God. Owing to the fact that

BISHOP COLEMAN ON CRIME

Bishop Coleman the other day, in the
city OF Philadelphia, took occasion to
discuss the prevalence Of crime. and
produced statistics 10 show that it is on
the increase. This may be true, al
though statistics are apt to be mislead-
ing. It may he that we have kept bet
ter records in recent years than in an
earlier period. The Philadelphia Ledger
in commenting on the Bishops address
says:
In his discourse at St. Stephens
Church, in This city, on Thursday,
bishop Coleman, of Delaware,
spoke OF the increase OF crime in
the United states. In 1850 we had one
criminal to every 3.442 Of pcpula-
ton. In 1890 the proportion was
one to every us. The figures for
1900 were not given. These were
the statistics OF convicted criminals
only. The exhibit is disturbing
and calls for the careful considera-
ton OF sociologists. The theory
that the world is growing better,
hopefully accepted Dy many writers,
is not supported by the figures pre-
sented by Bishop Coleman. IL Is
commonly believed that the enor-
nous immigration Of recent years
has added certain undesirable ele-
ments to our population who are
responsible for much Of the crime
reported. Possibly the more nu-
merous convictions Of late years
{ are due to the greater activity and
efficiency of the law officers. II
would be gratifying il it could be
demonstrated that conditions are
not quite so mcrtifying as the
quoted figures indicate. There are
more schools, teachers and moral
e agencies at work than ever before
n It is a question whether the statis-
tics OF crime were as accurately
compiled in former years as they
> were by the last census. Bishop
Coleman has suggested an inquiry
e of the greatest importance.
