THE REFORMAToRY RESOLUTION.

The committee appointed by the
House on Thursday to inquire into the
ACCESSIBILITY of establishing a REFORM
atory for youthful criminals is to re-
port at an early day. The subject
which the committee is to consider is
very important one, and 1t is doubt
full If justice can be done it in time for
report. Still, that is no reason why
the investigation shouldn't be begun
at once. The wonder is that a re-
formatory wasn't established long ago
No doubt judges and sheriffs all
over the state will agree that most of
the youths who are sent to the peni-
Tertiary or the changing become
hardened criminals. Very few of
them are benefited by the punishment
they receive. The reason is that their
surroundings and associations in pris-
on life tend to make them Indifferent
and careless respecting their future.
They feel they are disgraced, and that
it is practically impossible for them
to become good citizens. Besides, their
| association with old and hardened
criminals weakens them morally, so
that when they regain their liberty
their inclinations are towards an evil
rather than an upright life.
There is no doubt that If Georgia
were to establish a reformatory for
youthful criminals there would be a
gradual falling off in the cost OF
criminal court expenses In proportion
| to the population, and that many
youthful offenders, instead of being
made confirmed criminals by prison ex.
periences. would become selft-respect.

chicngo convention stories.

The following Chicago convention
stories are clipped from the special re-
ports of various newspapers:
William Barnes of Albany county APP
preached Congressman James 5. Sher-
man in the corridor of the Auditorium
Annex at Chicago and said:
Jim, I'll bet you SIS that / can get
all the tickets in the convention that
want for every day 1t meets"
You think you can, eh?'' said Mr..
Sherman. We'll, I'm just about able
to take that bet"
Mr.. Sherman pulled from his pocket
roll of money that made him look
like a native and peeled off a S. note,
Mr.. Barnes matched it from his wallet,
and the $40 was put in the hands of a
newspaper man standing near.
Now, go ahead and get your tick
cts" said Mr.. Sherman.
why, you see, | don't want any,"
replied Mr.. Barnes.
The stakeholder turned the money
over to him before Mr. Sherman had
recovered from the shock.

as to the probable nominee of the COM
ing st. Louis Democratic Convention.

Some bad feeling exists between
members of the New York delegation
and members of the Indiana delegation
over what the New Workers remarked
as an insult to the President. At a
dinner in one of the hotels which was
attended by members of the two dele
cations, one of the Indianians arose
and proposed the following toast:
Here's to Roosevelt the insistent
candidate, whom nobody wants.
The New Workers set down their
glasses and refused to drink the toast.
An effort was made to smooth the
matter over, but it was not altogether
successful.
During lull in the convention pro-
ceedings the Georgia delegation sent
over the following note to the Alaska
delegation, whose bald eagle totem
poles are the picturesque feature of
the convention: "Will you kindly lend
us one of your Alaskan bald eagles on
pledge that we will return it in good
shape at the convention to be held
four years from now? We desire to
cross it with Georgia hooking bird

SOUTH cAROLuNA,s CAMPAIGN.

For the second time in more than a
quarter of a century, South Carolina
is to have quiet state campaign.
Only once since 1878 has candidate
for Governor been nominated by the
Democratic party without opposition
| within the party ranks. That was
when Hugh s. Thompson was given
his second term. in 1886. Following
the adoption of the primary system,
some years ago, there has regularly,
up to the present, been host of can
didates for each of the state offices
60 be filled, and the campaigns that
resulted have been noted for their
warmth and vigor. Only a few years
ago. the stump-speakings were fire.
ouently characterized by personal de-
nunciations and fist fights. It was not
at all uncommon for candidate to
shake his fist in the face of his op-
ponent while saying hard things to
and about him.
But it's all different this year. An
era of good feeling has arrived. Gov,
Hayward is going to have a walk
over, and with him win go all of the
other two-year officials of the state
ticket. with a possible single exception.
The lone exception is in the case Of
the Railroad Commissioner, whose of
flee is being contested by several can
didates. The campaign was formal
Iy opened the other day in Sumter
where the candidates delivered adj
dresses to an audience of about 200 peo-
pie. Sumter is quite a thriving little
city, and the center of populous farm
ing territory: but so little interest Is
felt in the campaign that the farmers
didn't bother about going to the
meeting. They know Hayward, they
have confidence in him. they know he
is going to succeed himself, and so
they We're content to let 1t go at that,
without losing day from their fields.
The speech of the Governor, outlin-
ing his policy for his succeeding term,
was highly commendable. He stress
ed two issues, to which he said he pur-
posed giving especial attention. They
We're, first, education, and second, a
higher regard for human life and re-
spect for law and order. On these is
sues he will have the hearty support
of the better elements of the popula-
ton. South Carolina already has good
schools, but she needs better ones and
more of them. That a higher regard
for human life in the state is
desirable will not be questioned; not
that South Carolina is exceptionally
given to bloodshed as compared with
her sister states, but there is neverthe-
less too much of pistol-toting, pistol
shooting and resorting to extra-legal
methods Of furnishing certain crimes.
The safety and and stability Of popu-
lar government depends on the main
tanning of the orderly process of law
and the respect of the masses for the
law and it's macht-lery.

A Man Of His Word.

In the course of sermon in tribute to
the late Senator Hanna by Rev. 8. Geriah
Lamkins, pastor of the Tenth Street Bap-
fist Church. corner Of 10th and r streets
northwest, yesterday. the pastor said:
Senator Hanna could be truly called a
man of his word 1 remember very dis
tinctly how anxious he was on one occa-
sion to have certain young man trans
ferred from the bureau of engraving and
printing to the Department of Commerce
and Labor. But he had told Secretary
Cortelyou that he would refrain from
making recommendations to his depart
ment, owing to the relation which the
senator sustained to the legislation creating
the department He kept his word.
Senator Hanna was peacemaker. He
was always delighted to pour oil on the
troubled water. But perhaps the most
admirable feature of his character was
his never-dying love for his friends. He
would not only show it in talk, but if need
be he would lay 100000 on the altar for
them. He did not love the black man as
such. What he loved most was man
black or white. With him it was the man
and not the color of his skin. The life Of
Senator Hanna has shown that the poor
man should not hate the rich man nor the
rich man despise the poor because he is

Shoaling of Four-Mile Run.

Ten years ago, before the Washington,
Alexandria and Mt. Vernon railway laid
its tracks across Four Mile run in Vir-
ginia, at a point about a quarter of a
mile west Of where the Washington South
ern railway crosses the run on arches, that
stream was quite respectable sized body
of water, easily navigable for two or three
miles by small boats. The building of the
railway causeway has caused a rapid fill
ing of the stream, until now, at high water,
it is barely covered, and the grass shows
above the surface at all times. 1t is only
a question of a few years before the en-
tire bed of the run to the west of the rail-
way track will be available for farming
This condition is also true of the por-
ton of the run between the electric rail-
way and the steam railway tracks The
bed of the run here is filling rapidly, but
not as fast as is the case to the west of
the electric railway.
Between the shipyard tat Alexandria and
the Jones Point light house is large body
of water, locally knownsas the cove. Ten
years ago 1t was navigable to vessels draw
ing five feet Of water. For some reason 1t
is now filing up rapidly, and today but
two or three feet OF water cover 1t at the
best of tides and only small boats can get In
and out of It, A decade from now, IL the
same rate of fill continues. the cove will be
dry land.
