GENERALIZATION.

One OF the most interesting
chapters in our political history
is that which traces the growth
of centralized power in general
or federal government. At the
formation of the constitution the
creation of supreme central
government was widely regarded
as grave menace to the rights
of the several states and possibly
to the liberties of the people. To
preserve these intact and yet
create a central government with
ample and enduring powers was
no easy problem, but it was ac-
,complished by the trainers of the
constitution.
The rights of the states, Or
state rights, as we better knew
it, was not then a sectional doc
trine. 1t was held in Massachu-
setts as tenaciously as in South
Carolina; in Rhode Island as
firmly as in Georgia. 1t therefore
followed that the growth Of cen
tralization, constantly watched
by jealous eyes, was slow, in
deed. Yet there was a steady
growth of the idea that the ted.
,eral government should be recog.
nized as the ultimate and domin-
ating government for the whole
land. The result of secession
was to crystalize this idea, and
TODAY we find the representatives
of all the people joining in max.
ing possible the exercise of pow.
,ers by the federal government
which would have been denied
to 1t not many years since. Ever

were longest and most bravely
defended, but two aged senator:

IDLE RICH.

The Thaw-White tragedy in
New York City and the conse-
quent publicity given to the sort
Of life led by the, participants
and their associates is revolving
in the extreme.
But it is no new thing and
need surprise no observant and
thoughtful person. Wealth and
idleness have always produced
such characters and caused such
conditions in society. The hist
ory of mankind from Herodotus
to the present emphasizes the
corrupting, corroding influences
eNerted upon men, and nations
as we'll by wealth and idleness.
1t was this combination that
wrought the decline and fall OF
the Roman Empire. 1t was not
simply the enervating influences
of luxury that destroyed Rome,
but rather was it those social
vices which ever spring from the
combination of wealth and idle
ness.
The idle rich violate more o1
TIE laws Of God and men than &c

A GROWING NUISANCE.

What business is it Of any
body's what President Roosevelt
eats? Why should anyone be
concerned whether the president
breakfasts on hard boiled eggs
or frogs legs? And yet the
newspapers of the east have
been discussing this matter Of
late. The number Of courses in
dulged in by members Of the ex-
ecutive's household has also been
chronicled. Whose business is
this?
This matter was carried to a
point of Righteousness, and the
president, in order to protect
himself and family, was compell-
ed, finally, to give the public a
statement of what he and his
family ate.
1t would seem that the ten
dency of the people to become
meddlers is growing rapidly.
This matter Of diet as concerns
the president but illustrates the
inquisitiveness of certain indi-
viduals that infest every COM
munity. They are eternally pry-
ing into the affairs Of their neigh
bors, sticking their noses into
matters that concern them not,
and the pity is that the self
respect of those thus imposed
upon forbids them breaking the
proboscis of the party thrusting
| it into provinces to which it is
uninvited.
! Even the president is subjected
to the annoyance. Home life
and private family affairs are eE-
posed to g curious public. Moth
ing IS held too sacred to become
gossip for Anticipated nincom
poops. As matter Of fact, the

all other classes of society.
Wealth is not the condition which
gives this resultant, but idle
ness. 1t is true now as when
austere old DIR. Watts wrote it.:
''Satan finds some mischief still
for idle hands to do"
The remedy for the mischiefs
of idleness is chiefly in the
hands of parents. They must
instil the minds of their chill
dren with horror for idleness and
self-indulgence. They must
teach them the true nobility of
labor and have them learn that
there is no measure of success
attainable without earnest, per-
sistent work. Genius alone will
not score success, nor can wealth
purchase it. Fortunate, indeed,
the young man who has these
adventitious aids, but most for
tunate if with them he have
honestly and untiring industry.
1t seems inexpiicable, almost
that the children Of most worthy
parents should become such
worse than miserable failures.
Pittsburg never had a more up
right, respected and public-spir-
tied citizen than William Thaw,
father of Harry. The elder
children were reared under more
careful parental control and they
were deservedly and highly re-
spected. Accommodating business
cares on part of the father and
the demands of society as per
mitted by the mother placed the
training OF the younger children
in the hands of servants who
had no interest in and probably
little fitness for their work.
1t is but another demonstration
of the truth that parents may
not shirk their parental obliga.
tions nor delegate them to others
and hope to escape humiliation
and disgrace because of the
vicious conduct of their neglect
ed children. Truly ''he that
maketh haste to be rich shall
not be innocent. "

The Family Pew.

Some of the most vivid of the emo
lions which thronged upon the sum-
mer pilgrim to the old home were
those which awaited him in the FAM
fly pew of the old meeting house. AS
he took his seat there, and heard the
familiar note of the organ and the
clear, thin voices of the choir, the
years melted away, the faces changed,
the new carpet faded into the well-re-
membered colors of so years ago
and he was in truth a child again His
thought went back to the time when
he was allowed to sit on the footstool
legs. He tasted again the luscious
raisin which found its way from
grandmother pocket to his mouth,
and shifted the pungent southernwood
of the Sunday nosegay in a neighbor's
si1k-mitted hand. 1t was in that pew
that he first realized to the full the
dignity of trousers. 1t was there that
he was proudly conscious of the ap-
proving glances of his friends on his
first college vacation. He recalled in
a flash the intolerable length of the
The pew has sad memories as we'll as
sweet ones. Most poignant of them is
that of his mothers funeral and the
awful Sunday after it, when no one
could bear to take her empty place
and the emptiness of it seemed unen-
durable. Close upon that time fol-
lowed the Sunday when he made SOL
emn profession there of the faith she
had loved so WE'LL Then come the days
of the great war, when the meeting
house blazed with flags and thrilled
with the music of bugle and drum.
The blessing of the volunteers, the
prayers for their safety, and the sad,
sad series of soldiers funerals-all
these came up to the mans memory
in the old pew. Suddenly out of this
dreamland he is called by the stir of
the congregation-and is conscious
that he has missed the good pastors
sermon. But perhaps, says the Youth s
Companion, God Himself has preached
to him out of life's grim struggle-in
the vision of some of his own deep ex.
peIiences and the discovery that they
are still potent to arouse the will and
confirm the faith with their rich and
tender memories.

washinqton's Death Rate,

1t is a convincing reply that the
district commissioners made to the
charge that Washington is the most
unhealthy city in the country. The
death rate of Washington is shown
to be lower than that of Augusta, Me !;
Atlanta, Ga; Annapolis, Md; Lynch
burg, Va; Key West, Fla; Jackson
vile, Fla; Mobile, Ala; Savannah,
Ga; Saratoga, n. Y; San Antonio,
Tex; San Francisco, Cal; Whining

Va, and San Diego, Cal. The death
rate of Washington is essentially the
same as that of Memphis, the city in
which the charge against Washin gton
was given publication
The death rate in Washington is
somewhat higher than in number of
large cities because of the high death
rate among the colored population.
There are more colored people in
Washington than in any other city in
the United States-more than in New
