Not the least important business IN
cident to the convention will be the
selection of a chairman of the national
committee to succeed the late Senator
Hanna. The choice is likely to be Sec
rotary George Bruce Cortelyou, now
head of the department of commerce
and labor, who will thus become the
of Mr.. Roosevelt's campaign.
The Coliseum, in which the convention
is to be held, was dedicated in 1900,
President Mckinley being present. 1t
has a seating capacity of 10000. There
will be about $500 persons in official
attendance at the convention. The del

the national committee as its secretary.
Mr.. Dover's rise In politics has been
rather remarkable. At sixteen he was
editing and managing a country paper.
1t was a small paper, but young Dover
succeeded with it. Eight years ago he
was employed by Charles Dick, then
assistant secretary Of the Republican
national committee. to do clerical work
for him, and Dover took to the duties
so well that Dick pushed him along
into Senator Hanna's employ, and al
most before he knew 1t Dover was get
ting more for assisting him than the
salary which Mr.. Hanna drew from
the government as a member Of the
United States senate, Senator Hanna
did not bother with details. He trusted
all that to his secretary, who justified
the confidence reposed In him.

men each have private secretaries, ste
nographers and clerks who have to
be provided for as official attendants
on the convention. This class numbers
something like 500 and brings the off,
cial attendance up to about 4,5OO. 1t
is estimated that at least 10000 people
will be drawn to Chicago by the event.
The expense of reporting a great con-
vention is tremendous. 1t cost the
Associated Press over $4,000 to re-
port the various conventions of 1896,
and over $4,000 was expended on n
convention of that year alone, the
Democratic. These figures do not take
into consideration at all the amount
expended by other press associations
and individual newspapers. All OF
the large dailies have their individual
correspondents on the scene, many or
them sending a staff of several men
and mourning a large expense.
An estimate as to the total expense
that will be incurred in connection
with the Republican convention at Chi
cago, based on the cost of previous
conventions, gives $1,103,000 as the
amount that will be paid out in rail-
road fares, hotel bills, reporting of the
convention and similar expenditures.

Then it took number of learned men
some years to consider the varying
claims Of the Canadians and the Amer

There may be something in the con-
tention of the Canadians that they have
a proscriptive right to all the territory
between the northern boundaries Of the
United States and the north pole, but
probably not more than there would be
in claim by the Terre del Fuegans
to everything south of them, including
the south pole. Now is the time to
notify our neighbors to the north that
their claims are not to be recognized
offhand. In the event that Peary should
discover the pole and find the same to
be set up in the midst OF a workable
placer claim, we would most assuredly
be disposed to hold fast by the titles

and the philanthropist Of the West
overlooked the squalor which surround
ed him because his heart was moved
by the Indebtedness of the people of
the East
Even today, charity does not begin
at home, but 1t is getting closer to the
home. There are individuals and or
CARNATIONS that prefer to reform and
aid people whose needs they know
nothing about. but there are enough
exceptions to these to justify the be-
lief that in the near future the excep-
lions will make the rule. When hand
kerchiefs were sent to the Hottentots
across the sea, the general public at
home had no means of ascertaining the
exact effect Of the consignment on the
mental and moral condition Of the re-
cipients, and therefore there was little
criticism. But the administration of
charity at home has this general public
for an unprecedented critic, and the re-
suit is that the philanthrOpist is learn
ing a common sense method of doing
good from the frank advice gratuitous-
ly rendered him.
Since the criticism has not fright
ened the philanthropist away from
home; since, on the contrary, he
has gone to some trouble to con-
suit the wishes Of that public
and to profit by its advice, it may
be pronounced a very good thing. 1t
is encouraging to feel that the heather
at home and also the deserving poor
are not being overlooked. 1t is en-
cOuraging, too, to know that the mod
ern philanthropist is no longer a hys-
terical creature or an impractical
dreamer, but a common sense and re-
liable individual, with we'll developed
business bump that prompts him to de-
mand an adequate return for every
philanthropic investment that he
makes.

APPETITE AND GOOD HEALTH.

Eat, drink and be merry, for to-
morrow we diet" says the modern
cynic, but according to the theory of
Prof. Chittenden, of Yale, people would
be much merrier if they consented to
diet today. He has been experiment.
ing on a number Of humans and the
result is that he is able to declare pos
itively that the average man eats
three times as much as is good for
him and that if he ate one-third the
quantity Of food he now consumes he
would show much better physical
and mental condition. But the pro-
fessor's human samples" which he
points to in proof of the value of q
light diet hardly clinch his argument
They have lived for half a year on food
carefully selected and scientifically
prepared, and 1T is not remarkable
that they should thrive on it. Al
though administered in small quanti-
ties, it was probably three times as
nourishing as the food consumed by
the average man.
Americans are not gormands; their
temperaments prove this. But In or
der to satisfy the craving of hunger,
they are forced to eat what Prof. Chit
tenden considers an unnecessary
amount of food. They obtain from
what they eat not one-half the nourish-
ment they would obtain were the food
better adapted to their needs and more
scientifically prepared. Should all
Americans follow Prof. Chittenden's
advice and pat themselves on a light
diet, they would probably be little bet
ter off than they are now, unless the
food improved in quality. For the
average man or woman is sadly igno-
rant Of the nutritive value of the diff
ferent foods, and that which is good is
usually spoiled by the cooks
This country has recently had a
practical demonstration of the bad ef-
feet Of an adulterated food diet, and
Prof. Chittenden's demonstration may
be considered supplementary to this.
Now If some Individual or individuals
will map out a plan whereby the ris-
ing generation may be taught some
thing about food values and the proper
preparation Of food, it will be possible
in the future to eat, drink and be
merry without the serious conse-
quence Of either dieting or dying. The
people have been shown the injurious
effect of adulterated food and they have
been shown what a saving there may
be in the adoption Of a diet that Is
really nourishing. But there is moth
ing taught in the common schools
which will enable the young genera
ton to detect authorizations and to-
prepare food that is nourishing. I'm
til there is. such experiments as Prof
Chittenden has been making will have
little value.

Contemporary Comment
AS to Negro Education.

What strikes the Northern educator
as particularly absurd In current dis
cussions of manual education versus
literary education for the negro is the
notion many people seem to have that
the two kinds of education are mutual
~ exclusive. Granted that the black
man ought to learn trade, 1t still re-
mains true that he ought also to learn
as much literature, mathematics and
science as he is capable of learning;
and that the limit of his capabilities, as
is the case with white men, is deter
mined not by racial but by individual
considerations. A bright young fellow
won't learn any the less brfckIaying
from having the opportunity to learn a
little history and geography, and he is
much more likely to become a desirable

PRE-EMPTING The POLE.

The Canadian government is about
to send out an expedition for the pur-
pose Of establishing the right of the Do
minion to the islands north of the
mainland Of the British possessions in
America. 1t appears that certain Yam
kee shippers commanding whaling ves-
sells have been in the habit of chart
ing islands they have met with unex-
pectedly in the polar regions, giving
them American names and setting up
the usual claims of discoveries. This
custom proving obnoxious to the
Canadians, they have determined 70
make it clear that they own everything
between the American boundary and
the pole.
There is room for contention in this.
but it appears that for the present the
United States will not feel fmpelled to
take any steps to Interfere with the
plans of the British Americans. IT il
true that. so far, the discoveries made
by American explorers in the polar re.
gions have not been held valuable from
the commercial point of view. The be.
