old and Young Men.

Dr. Wm. Osler is quoted as having said in his farewell address at the an niversary exercises of the Johns Hop kins university. that men above sixty years of age are useless, and that they should stop working at that age. The university ought to be thankful that he has delivered his valedictory, pre- paratory to leaving, and tender it's sympathy to the institution with which he is about to become identified. But, perhaps he is sane on other questions.
 Public life both in this country. and other countries, presents numerous in stances of men at an advanced age, physically and mentally strong. What about such men as Leo XIII, Gladstone, Bismarck, Senator Hoar. and numer- ous others, who made history, at a very advanced age? The learned pro lessor says that no one over the age of sixty has ever accomplished any thing Why. Emperor William, the Great, born in I797. fought France and unified Germany. after he had passed the seventy mark. If we are not mis- informed, Siinonides bore off the prize in a poeticaI contest after his S0th year, and Sophocles wrote Oedipus when he was over so.
 The fact is that some persons are old at 60. while others can be set down as young at four score. Very much de- bends on what kind of life they have led Those who have lived temperateL moral lives, and always taken an ac- tive part in human affairs will live long and renew their strength, provid- ed they have not inherited physical weakness that causes the machinery to wear out rapidly. We have men in this country who are active and wig orous, at a high age, and who are able to transact more business than many who call themselves young.

The Curse of Bribery.

The expulsion of four members of the California state senate for receiving bribes-and getting caught at it- serves to direct the attention of the country to a growing evil of our legis- lative system. At least half dozen states have been confronted by bribery scandals in their legislatures this year. and of course, the exposures form but n small part of the actual deviltry that goes on.
 These incidents are not encouraging. vet the occasional effort to expose at tempts to buy legislation is suggestive of a growing appreciation of the odious character of such transactions. The only way to get rid of this disease that aff1icts many legislative bodies is for honest men in all such bodies to unite for the purpose of sending the brib- CTS and their beneficiaries to prison.
 Popular government as illustrated by state legislatures does not appear to be a success. The voters of the several districts of the several states do not appear to be able to reach point where they insist upon sending to their respective state capitals men of honor and integrity The trouble is that "any old thing" can be elected as a state senator or as a representative and then expected to be honest and decent.
 Bribery of public servants is one Of the evils of today that is as danger ous as the habit of carrying pistols or throwing bombs Bribery and cor ruption of public officers have been re- duced to a fine art. and it ought cer- tainly be possible for the honest and reputable members of every legislative body to keep the bribers at bay or to send them to prison after they commit an offense. The tendency is to consid- CT the bribery of legislators legit- mate Nine of business, and this indi- cates a low state of morals. This evil is as much of a menace to the country as the worst of the trusts. And 1t is coming to be considered that every state legislator is open to corruption It is discouraging to contemplate.

GOV. KIBBEY's CONFIRMATION
Uncertainty as to the Time When He
 Will Take Office.

Judge Kibbey was seen yesterday af- ternoon regarding his confirmation as governor which was announced in the telegraphic columns of The Republican yesterday morning. He replied that he had had no other information concern ing 1t nor did he expect any official knowledge of it before the receipt of his commission, which in the ordinary course should arrive in about ten days.
 He was asked if it was not possible that, the commission having been sent. he would receive telegraphic instruc- tions to assume his duties. He said that that had been done in cases of emergency but as there was none now he did not expect such telegraphic in- structions.
 No word of the action of the senate had been received at the office of Act ing Governor Nichols. It was stated that probably Judge Kibbey would be directed to take charge of the office be- fore the arrival of his commission in the mails. A great many legislative bills are being brought into the office of the governor. So far none of them are of a character which would affect the administration of he incoming governor. Such bills would not be signed by Acting Governor Nichols but would be held up until Judge Kibbey takes his office.

CHAUTAUQUA ASSEMBLY
Arrangements Perfected for the Big
 Educational Enterprise.

MT. James L. Himrod in en inter- view last night said that the Chau- tauqua meeting hitherto referred to in these columns as set for March 11-19 is fully assured. notwithstanding ru- mors to tho contrary. That 1t might be assured beyond any doubt he has secured the names of ten leading busi- ness men to back the enterprise and guarantee payment of any possible de- ficit in the event the meetings them selves did not result in a financial profit.
 The source of revenue will the Sale of season tickets for $50 which may be reserved at Berryhills for fifty cents extra. Single admissions will be 75 cents for the concert on the open ing night and fifty cents for each daily admission thereafter. It will be seen therefore that those who expect to at tend the meetings with any degree of regularity will find it greatly to their benefit to secure season tickets.

The Going Out of Addlcks.

Addicks of Delaware is down and out. or he has caused information to that effect to be spread in order to get away from the big guns that have been ranged upon him for some years. It is conceivable that the man who has done so much to demoralize state is financially and physically broke. For years he has been under a tremendous strain Carrying an immense and pre- cariously balanced financial load. he has permitted his ambitions to inter fere with the dictates of his judgment. He devoted too much time to his polit- ical fences and did not pay enough at tention to the attacks that have been made on the pile he was known to have segregated in the marts of high finance. He bought too many gold bricks financial and political, and the end of him was discounted by the wise ones long ago, when it became certain that he was in desperate political straits.
 The failure of Addicks to attain ann bitions by reprehensible practice shows that the times are not so rotten as the pessfmists would have us believe. The man was undoubtedly shrewd--too shrewd. His rise was rapid. He made figure in financial affairs in spite of the opposition of sharp men and rich men. He knew men and values. He had a beautiful sense of the possibili- ties of system" applied to finance. He created wealth out of nothing. but he had not the genius to provide for the stability of his creation.
 But it was politics that was the un- doing of him. He could meet and cope with the men who were willing to fight for his money and not averse to giv ing him a run for it. But the political harpy had him at a disadvantage. With all his sharpness in the money market, Addicks was a veritable gull in politics. He was dragged through

A Senatorial Tangle.

For the benefit of those who become aisgusted over the interminable tan gles in which small organizations and associations become involved, we desire to submit the following extract from the Congressional Record of re- cent date. The senate had under con- sideratien the agricultural appropria- ton bill, and this was one of the re- suits:
 MT. Morgan-Mr. President, l wish to make a parliamentary inquiry.
 MT. Hansbreugh-If a motion to re- consider the vote by which the amend Inent was adopted is necessary, I make that motion.
 MT. Morgan-I wish to make an in auiry of the chair. I desire to inquire of the chair what is the state of the question before the senate?
 The president pro tempore-The question is on receding from the senate amendment. to which the senator from North Dakota has referred, to the agri- cultural appropriation bill
 MT. Morgan-The agricultural ap- propriation bill, then, is before the sen- ate?
 MT. Teller-Is it before the senate !? The President pro tempore-To thst extent?
 MT. Bacon-Has the bill been re- turned?
 Mir. Teller-Is the agricultural ap- propriation bill before the senate? understand that it is in the house of representatives.
 Mir Hansbrough-The bill has been gent back to the senate.
 The President pro tempore-The res olution brought the bill back to the senate.
 MT. Burrows-The bill came back with the resolution.
 The President pro tempore-The original bill Is here. It was brought back with the resolution of the house
 Mir Allison-I suggest that the prop CT motion is that the senate recede from it's amendment. The senate is now in possession of the bill.
 Mir Hansbrough-That is the motion made.
 Mir Allison-I understand; but some other suggestion was made. 1 think the motion of the senator from Nortf Dakota is in order.
 The President pro tempore-Tht senator from North Dakota moves tha the senate recede from its amendment
 Mir Spooner-Is the bill open ts

amendment? There were a great many amendments made to the bill.
 MT. Teller-I wish to raise a question of order.
 The President pro tempore-Tyhe mo- ton is to recede.
 MT. Teller-A motion to recede is not the proper motion to make in this case
 MT. Spooner-There has been no conference in this case.
 MT. Teller-There has been no con- ference.
 insisting on an amendment or receding from 1t.
 MT. Teller-There is not any ques- ton of receding before the senate.
 Mir Spooner-I ask unanimous con- sent that the votes by which the amendments were ordered to be en- grossed and the bill read the third time and passed be reconsidered.
 Mr. Hale-That is all right.
 There was a lot more of the same sort of thing, participated in by nearly every senator on the floor, before it was finally decided that the proper procedure would be to secure unani- nous consent to reconsider the vote senate Now do you wonder at the snarls the ordinary debating society occasionally finds itself in?
