POVERTY AND WEALTH.

poverty and wealth both have their
advantages and dangers. Poverty may
be stern and harsh, but 1t sometimes
calls out the best in man, which
wealth would only stihe. Sudden foi-
tune getting can only mean danger
only the wisest persons are able toI
preserye their balance with the acquis-
ition Of great wealth
Charles Howard Griggs, formerly a
professor in Leland Stanford uniyer-
sity. California, is the author Of these
words He spoke them before a 81
Louis woman's club recently.
While this may be true, what man
is there who will not assume the risk
and. If given his choice, take wealth
and its attendant dangers instead oi
poverty that might bring out the best
in him. Looking at the question from
the cold standpoint of facts and STA
tistics Mr Criigs' statement Is open
10 question. What individual over
come by poverty, does not feel the re-
straint this places on his endeavorss
How much more he could accomplish
n II we're not necessary to slave for
livingl
There are exceptional cases where
poverty brings out the best in man;
where II forces the endeavor that
would not have been made in case OF
wealth but these are the exceptions.
II is a sad fact that the vast major
ity who are compelled to strive hard
for the bare necessities become embit'
tered Constant rebuffs harden them.
They may become immune to misfor'
tunes knocks, but this process STILES
rather than develops their better side
Sudden wealth would by no means
be advisable in an effort to bring ou'
the unselfsh characteristics OF these
individuals. for that in truth, is often
misfortune. Gradual alleviation OF
distressing conditions might have the
desired effect. Evolution in the ma
terial sense would be followed by
corresponding upward tendency OF th'
souls desires. Man is a creature o
habit Ground into the dust by poy
erty or oppression, sudden wealth
would. in most cases be followed b.
the qualification of selfish ends.
Between the extremes of povert'
ami wealth the student of human ma
lure finds the man who is nearest th'
ideal. He has enough for earthl'
wants and the machinery of his life
so regulated that the supply for tn
material. while constant is not lavish
There is no inducement for extrava
gance. yet no necessity for restraint
Regular habits of living are essentia
factors in preserving this balance o'
tween opulence and poverty, an
health follows 1t is under these cor
iions thar the best in man is mos
frequently developed.

SHALL THERE BE TWO JUDGES


Judge Hazen. of the Shawnee dis
trict court, agrees with the Topeka
lawyers who favor the establishing CT
second county court or the dividing of
the work of the present court between
two judges.
Judge Hazen win retire from the
bench next January after II years SER
vice He knows better than anyone
else the amount of work which de-
wolves upon the Judge of the court.
Before Judge Hazen assumed the po-
sition the court docket was a thou
sand cases behind and the court of
common pleas was established with
J. B. Johnson as Judge, to assist the
district court in cleaning up the docket.
This court went out of existence soon
after Judge Hazen became judge and
for practically IL years he has handled
all the district court work.
To keep up with the docket has ne
cessitated great amount of work
and the hurrying of cases. For the
April term, of FIVE months, Judge Ha-
zen will have over 300 cases on the
docket. When asked about the rumor
that there should be two courts or two
judges Judge Hazen said this morning:
1.-THE way out of the present difficulty
is to have two judges in the district
court or to have another court created.
Whether two judges of one court is
admissible under the constitution
cannot say as I have not looked it up.
There is work enough for two judges"
It has been suggested by lawyers
that the jurisdiction of the city court
be extended. Should anything be done.
however. it is likely that the district
court will have two judges or another
court will be established. At any rate
nothing can be done before the leg's-
lature meets. It will be pretty difficult
however, to convince the people that
another court is necessary. Judge Ha-
zen has kept his docket clean and he
has done it by hard, persistent work
but there is no reason why his success
sor should not do the same.

Two New Ones Devoted to Mat
thew Arnold.
Both Are Put Out by American
Publishers.
OF DIFFERENT SCOPE.
One Sustains Existence of an
Arnold Cult.
Neither Makes Any Comment
Upon tina Literary Quality.

Two books on Matthew Arnold have
Just appeared. One by G. W. E. Rus
sell from the press of Charles Serb
ners Sons under the simple title Mat
:; new ,,a r1 Arnold and the other by Will
lam darbutt Dawson, published by G.
Putnam & Son. under the title,
Matthew Arnold and His Relation to
the Thought of Our Time''
A New York reviewer says in a dis
cusslon or these books in the Evening
The simultaneous appearance of
these two works, which have, of course
very much in common, Matthew Ar
notu message was so plain and SO
clearly expressed, however slow and
gradual must be it's dissemination
among the very materiaIistic people 10
whom he addressed it primarily, would
appear to justify Mr.. Dawsons claim
that there exists a Matthew Arnold
cult" the very thing, it may be added,
against whose existence and propa-
ganda Arnold himself would have pro-
tested most vigorously, as bearing in
it the germs of a possible perversion
OF the aim and deeper meaning of his
apostleship, a circumscription of its
usefulness to future generations. Mr..
ever, to put the question, WAS it nee
essary to write such a book?" At the
very beginning he places himself upon
the defensive. His answer is affirma-
tive, of course; his aim has been, he
says, ito give unity to Arnold's the
cries and ideas. to his admonitions and
warnings because the voice still
cries, and it cries in the wilderness, -
which is unhappily true.
Mr.. Dawson succeeds very well in
attaining his end; SO does Mr.. Russell,
whose work is, however, of different
scope, dealing with the man and his
time and his message as an indivisible
trinity. Mr.. Dawson lays stress upon
Arnold's religious mission, devoting to
1t no less than ten of his eighteen chap
tiers; Mr.. Russell strikes a better bal
ance, and is inclined throughout TO
give the weight of Importance to
Arnold's social criticism. Both writer's
are agreed in considering as utterly
Superf1uous any comment whatever
upon the purely literary quality of their
heroS work. It must be added, how
ever, that in this regard Mr.. Russell
shows the greater respect for the ex-
ample of the master of style in the
quality of his own.
The world of today, and not only the
Anglo-Saxon world, needs Arnold's
message even more than it needed it in
his own day. Mr.. DawSon's cult is
certainly a crying need. For the Bar
