Boston Transcript The Philadel-
phia Record remarks that there is a
crying demand for legislation in Penn
sylvania and in all other States of the
Union on the subject of desertion. he
women who have been deserted by their
husbands without means of support,
and in most cases burdened by families
OF helpless children, are numbered by
thousands. In one year 800 cases were
brought to the notice of the organized
charities of Philadelphia alone, and
these probably constituted only a
fraction of the whole number. Many
of the sufferers prefer to endure their lot
in silence and shun the scandal OF pub
licity. The remedies provided by ex
isting laws are wholly inadequate. The
courts may order The recreant to pay a
weekly stipend to his abandoned wife,
but such orders are habitually set a.
naught by the delinquent, who may GO
into hiding or simply take up his juris-
diction. Desertion ought to be made q
criminal otfense, and the deserters II
families made amenable to extradition
and other processes which are effective
across and beyond State boundaries. a
bill to this effect should be enacted IN
every State as speedily as possible.

Boston Herald The Democratic con-
gresham, Butler, who fAs been 40 I'M
tremendously unseated for a second
time 10 the present Congress, comes
from St. Louis, and has been more or
less intimately identified with the gigan-
tic frauds lately uncovered in that city.
Some OF the members of his family, we
believe, are now in all for their crimes
in this connection. Doubtless, this ex-
plains the action of the fervor OF the
House in riding rough-shod over the
Democratic minority. They seem to
have been of the opinion that the de-
tenders of Butler had no rights which
anybody was bound to respect. Prob
ably there is still more trouble ahead
for Butler. He has been reelected to
the next Congress by the same methods
that elected him twice TO the present
one. Ii he gets turned out of his seat
by the Ffty-eighth Congress his record
will be something quite unique.

Boston Transcript There is fresh
and high authority for contradicting a
current bit of misnformation to the
effect that feeling of antagonism exists
between the English and French popu-
lation in Canada The present premier
is French, and never were the two races
ia the Dominion in greater harmony OF
more firmly united. The foundations
of the Dominion, which came into ex.
istence only in 1867, were laid by Sir
John A. Macdonald on very material
grounds, chief among them protection
ism, and protection on this side of the
line has most ably assisted him by keep
ing the neighbors of one continent and
the same race apart and at war in the
great interests of business and industry
Sir George E. Cartier, who supported
hun, another French. Canadian, had no
the Sigh est trace of racial bigotry or
fanaticism in his composition. The
present Liberal premier, Sir Wilfrid
Laurier, a Frenchman and Roman
Catholic, came into power in 1896 and
is perforce, holding all his liberalism as
TO tariff in allegiance. We have the
same high authority for saying that
there is no longer the sire in Canada
to be annexed to this country that there
was in ante Dominion days, and that
the Canadians are as loyal to England
under King Edward as they were under
Queen Victoria.

But the bill before the legislature seem:
to us needlessly complicated and no
