A Meaningless Local Statute.

An evidence of the carelessness with
which laws sometimes framed by
Congress is afforded by the discovery by
one of the local police judges that the
wrong word was written into a statute af-
fecting the District of Columbia enacted
during the recent session. This statute
amending the weights and measures law
already in existence. declares that mo per-
son shall sell or offer for sale anywhere
in the District of Columbia any provisions,
etc. for weight or measure less than
tho true weight or measure thereof" 1t
calls for but glance at this language to
indicate that II was the meaning of Con
gress to use the words for a weight or
measure greater than The true weight or
measure thereof" No statue is necessary
to prevent dealer from selling ten pounds
or quarts for the price of five, but the
strongest kind OF law is needed to keep the
retailers and wholesalers from trying to sell
1--WE for the price of ten.
1t would be interesting 10 know how this
blunder occurred, but it is far more I'M
portanl to ascertain whether this obvious
clerical error, which should have been
caught before the act was engrossed and
signed, viliates the whole statute or per-
mits II 10 stand in its meaningless form
while remaining as a repeal of the former
law The recently conducted short-weight
prosecutions against the ice men have been
based upon this new law. the silly IAN
guage or which has only just now been dis
covered If the courts rule that the new
statute is null and void complication in
the records of the Police Court is assured
1t Will be a public misfortune II the re-
peal OF the old law is sustained while the
new law remains imperative. There Will
then he for some months no safeguard
against short-weighting in this District. 1t
IS TO be hoped that the courts, in constru-
ing the case. Will take the public wei
fare view OF the situation and sustain one
of the statutes operative to prevent
frauds.

The Tar Heel Republicans.

The republicans of North Carolina held a
strenuous convention, fought out their diff
ferences as to candidates and organiza-
ttou and came together al the close to make
things unanimous. Now for the COM

ness Whatever is worth having is worth

Southern republicans have had an expe-
rience at once amusing and pathetic. OF
course their democratic neighbors have
held them up 10 derision. 1t was part of

ter. the northern republicans have supplied
the pathetic. They have accepted the
southern democratic appraisement as cor
rect, and practically taken sides against
the southern republicans. Hunting offices

tons for all legitimate advantages; mas

they have regretted to see their southern
brethren similarly employed. and have laid
down rules OF much sweetness and light
which they themselves have never fol-
lowed. Still they have urged energy on the
southern republicans, and told them that
while success Is impossible. they must
strike high and try to deserve it.
Those southern republicans who have won
victories-the men of Maryland. Of West
Virginia, OF Kentucky. of Missouri. and OF
North Carolina-did so by hard work and
without outside aid. Their organizations
showed care, and they did not put any
practical thing beneath them or behind
them. Such should continue to be their

Yale and the Monroe Doctrine.

Prof Wheeler of Yale, in an address the
other night at New Haven, said:
THE Monroe doctrine. which IS the eiev-
enth commandment of this government is
selhshness. recent Secretary of State
Is quoted as saying that this government
In foreign affairs was on a principle
that was combination of the Golden Rule
and the Monroe doctrine. The man that
can associate the two or assimilate them
must be a wonderful scientist and mathe-
matician. We have followed this Monroe
doctrine as our main political principle on
the plausible theory that we should carry
our Ideas OF government to all nations"
On the contrary, the Monroe doctrine was
originally put forward, and has been sup
ported. 10 prevent the monarchlcal nations
of Europe from forcing their ideas of gov
errment on us. The main purpose was to
prevent them from establishing anywhere
on this hemisphere such a foothold as
would enable them If at any time disposed
10 move against US 10 their advantage. And
1t has served that purpose. That is why
the doctrine Is so strong with us after SO
many years. and why when invoked by Mr..
Cleveland in the case of Venezuela it pro-
duced SO much enthusiasm in both parties
In every section OF the country.
Proceeding, Prof Wheeler said
In following out this doctrine we have
been carried away with the theory that our
particular form of government was fitted
for every nation in every stage of develop
ment. and no more crazy Illusion ever
entered mans mind. republican form of
government IS the worst possible for certain
nations, but we have been advancing the
fallacy OF forcing this on others. If II is
such a desirable and successful form of
government why not leave 1t to example
TO spread ii to other nations? AS nation
we think we must also advance our religion
toll q t,1ra
gunboats to do it and it has to be spread
at the point of the bayonet."
Forty years ago. following the spirit of
the Monroe doctrine. we warned Louis
Napoleon out of Mexico. The result was
the establishment, not by our direction, but
by the people of Mexico of their own choice.
of republican form of government which
still stands. and is the best government that
country has ever known. Under IT Mexico
has prospered wonderfully, and Is now a
nation of authority and progress
Fooled by US In an important Plan on this
side, the French emperor renewed his
scheming on that side. and In few years
lost his throne On the ruins OF his rotten
government rose a government of the
French people which still stands. which is
a power for great good In Europe. and
which Is the best government the French
people have ever known.
In what way and at what time has the
Monroe doctrine ever been followed by US
to our own or any peoples disadvantage?
Not In the case of Mexico. Not In the case
of France Not in the case of Venezuela
since we invoked the doctrine against
the policy of Great Britain, that great
power has become one of our stanchest
friends, and in our affair with Spain she
stood with us when Europe was unfriendly.
What is the matter with Yale? Her pro-
fessor of history is far from being all right.

the states affairs. His friends claim. and
some democrats concede that he was once
elected governor OF Tennessee, and then
counted out. The appeal for him now
therefore will include. In addition to his
merits as a man and the principles for
which he stands, a proposition to right the
wrong that some twelve years ago was done
him and his party. Mr.. Evans Is . good
speaker. and In joint debate or otherwise
should on the stump stir his party friends
up to a high pitch Of enthusiasm.
The platform adopted is not as good as
the candidate A dodge on the tariff will
not help. The democrats having ignored
the subject. the republicans should have
delivered themselves with all the greater
emphasis Instead OF that they have left
said not only that the tarfn should be re-
vised by its friends. but that the time was
ripe for the performance? Tennessee
wants protection, but cannot hope to profit
by schedules which the country has out
grown, and which many OF the stanchest
friends Of protection want changed.
The President is properly praised for the
acts cited. but there IS some risk and ex-
t-avagance in the prediction that he will
stand in history as the greatest statesman
of the twentieth century" The century
will not stand completed for ninety-four
years, and. at the pace the world Is NOV
ing, things and men may develop dwarflng
all that we know and greatly appraise
today. This palm will be awarded more
safely at a later time.

Campaign Money.

Commenting on The Stars opinion that
neither party will be hard up for money in
this years congressional campaigns, the
Chattanooga News says:
"Of course there has been a great deal
of nonsense written on the subject of cam
paign contributions recently. The impress
sion has gone out that neither party Will
have enough money to pay for postage
stamps used In the congressional campaign.
Nothing could be more erroneous than such
a supposition. Both committees will doubt
less have enough money to conduct a feg1tl-
mate campaign, and that is all that the re-
formers are working for. If we can reduce
our campaign expenses to the legitimate
figure. 1t will be better for the whole coun-
try. but 1t may be accepted as foregone
fact that 1t will require several years OF
agitation for us to reach even that point
The News is right. It will require several
years of agitation to bring about the re-
forms needed In the matter Of conducting
our political campaigns And meanwhile
the case should be put into very different
hands from those that have recently been
managing 1t. The fact that no legislation
on the subject of campaign contributions
was obtained at the recent session of Con-
gress was due In large measure to the fact
that some of the most prominent in
the movement were not of the kind properly
to be associated with so good cause. Peo-
pie wondered at their activity, and what it
might mean. Nobody associated it with the
purity of the ballot box. The result was
that the question became confused, and at a
time when SO much else was pressing it
went over.
The Indianapolis News, reproducing
portion of The Stars editorial says:
1T might. perhaps. be profitable to add
that one of the reform ideas that may
prevail will be that the people do not need
money to do their duty. They are not de-
pendent on the great interests. 1t is these
that are dependent on them
If the people would only wake up and do
their duty no legislation on the subject
would be needed. But that is the trouble.
Some voters cannot be aroused either by
love of party or love OF money. Others
have to be paid for everything they do dur
ing the progress of the campaign. includ-
Ing their own ballots election day. And
still others. while above bribery and yot-
ing their sentiments when the time comes,
have no suggestions or assistance to offer
to those who have been called to shoulder
the responsibility for the campaign results
Legislation may do something, but not
all by any manner of means. toward rem
edying the evil of which both sides Justly
complain. Years of prodigality In campaign
expenses, and rewards of the highest order
to men who have debauched the ballot
boxes, have had their influence on public
sentiment, and made the task of reform
very difficult. We all talk reform, but when
the campaign warns UP we all want to
win, and. after the battle. are none too
particular about how our side, if 1t WOE
got there.

The Tennessee Republicans.

No state campaign of the year should
prove of greater interest than that in Ten
nessee. The democrats led of with con-
yentlon fuil of acrimony and ginger, and

The result Is two strong tickets. Some
threats of sulking are heard on both sides
