The Republicans say that they
will make ;i.ca,npa'yn all over the
State. bnt II is not believed that
they have very much money. One
of their leaders SAID, when the Ex-
ecutlve Committee was in session,
that he thought enough money
would he raised for fairly good
campaign, but nothing extravagant
could be attempted. Of course,
the money spent Is simply for a
show, az there IS no chance of elect
ing any one Of their candidates.

The Honorable Senator Tom Platts bill aiming
at the reduction Of the South's representation in
Congress need not scare anybody. Having intro
duced It, the venerable T. c. P. may as we'll totter
away back and sit down.
His bill resembles nothing so much as the bill
OF an antiquated mosquito, capable of stinging
little but having no suction behind 1t to draw blood
Congress will undoubtedly have sense enough TO
pay no more attention to it than the average healthy
body would accord to invitation to jump astride
Of buzz saw; for nothing is more admirably cal
culated to split that august body Congress is not
looking for trouble. With its vast top-heavy Re
publican majority 1t has literally enough troubles Of
its own already on hand.
The Republican party in Congress suggests an
other comparison-that of the ancient elms Of New
England which split OF their own vast spreading
weight The Republican party is looking rather
for iron bands to bind its big limbs together than
FOR extra burdens to sunder them down.

would politely refurn.it with his veto-and he has

NO APATHY HERE.

The senatorial situation in Missouri is rapidly
assuming the condition Of a ee-fer-all, with two
or three of the aspirants fighting hard, and maybe
to the DEATH and the other four five hitting about
in less vndctive but decidedly battle royal fashion
And this aspect of the free-for-all is what in
terests the dark horse, the man who has not pub
licly announced but is hoping. He calculates that
all of the seven eight in the arena may be done
for by their very manner of fighting: that they may
lose public confidence altogether and render them
selves impossible: in which event he will be the
only logical selection.
And the number of "ony logical" selections is
almost past comprehension. 1t is scarcely limited
by the number Of Republican voters in the State
There are more senatorial candidates in Missouri
than colonels in Kentucky. Our honorable men are
all ambitious. There is no apathy anywhere
May the best man win. From such big field
there ought to be good selection; though it would
take two of the present aspirants to make Vest or
Cockrell.

Education i'm simplicity.

The simple life being. above all. the
product of a direction Of the mind. 1t is
natural that education should have a
great influence in that domain.
We employ scarcely more than two
methods of bringing up. children.
The first consists in bringing them up
for ourselves
The second consists in bringing them
TN for themselves.
In the first case, the child Is considered
az a complement OF the parents. He
forms a part of their belongings and oc-
cIIpies place among the objects which
they possess. Sometimes that place is
the noblest; when parents appreciate the
life of the affections most. Sometimes
also when material interests predoninate

last place. In no case Is, he someone.

BUILDING CODE HEARING.

Architects contractors real estate agents. public
officials, officers OF improvement associations ani
all who are interested In building construction,
should participate In the public hearing which the
Councils Committee Sanitary Affairs will con-
duct next Friday afternoon on the proposed re-
vision of the building code. The bill has been
wisely amended by the House Of Delegates II
there Is to be adequate legislation the Council must
have support from experts.
Revision Of the building code is matter of great
importance; Of imperative necessity. The present
laws are incomplete and ineffective. The bill as
amended by the House Of Delegates is in some re-
epects mockery Of legislation and even of prin-
ciple: some Of its provisions are worse both in
meaning and in disregard Of correct rules, than a
few OF the sections of the existing ordinances
One or two amendments, to which The Republic
referred some time ago, ought never to be allowed
in any municipal ordinance and ought never to have
the approval of q single member of the Municipal
Assembly.
St Louis needs complete, modern effective
building code, and to obtain revision the City Coun-
ell and the public officials ought to have vigorous
encouragement. The urgency of revision is obvious
Around the City Hall are seen rows of mere shacks

coincide with rules to safety, much less as to

There is doubt to the force Of penalty provisions

antagonism to certain desirable reforms in the code

amendments made by the House evoke reproof from
experts and from citizens who are Jealous about

II is bad system that produces such
fruit, and however simple it appears. at
tho foundation 1t engenders all the COM
plications
The other system is the opposite ex-
treme. 1t consists in bringing the children
up for themselves. The position is re-
versed; the parents are there for the
child. Scarcely Is he born, when he be-
comes the center. The white heads of
the grandparents and the robust one OF
the father incline before that curly head.

leadership is the proper material the English
university, whose aim is primarily to train men.
For half 4 century American universities have been
largely influenced by the German educational idea,
which looks chiefly to the training of Investigators.
and, as President Jesse pointed ont last year. the
result of the Rhodes Scholarships ultimately should
be to minge the tide of German influence with 4
tide of English influence. From the American
standpoint. which is matter-of-fact and practical
the effect will be beneficial Pedagogy may bring
out partisan adherents to the German idea exciI-
sively, but the argument of American utilitarianisni
