Will Probably be Sent to the
Reformatory.

Earl Taylor, son of Mr.. and Mrs
William Taylor, North 22nd street
and who was in police court yester
day for intoxication, although but
fifteen years old, is being held while
the case is investigated by Mrs. Eli
zabeth Gambler, probation officer
The scene when young Taylor was ar-
raigned in the city court. in the pres
ence Of his father, was one of the
most pathetic in local court records.
For the sake of the boys mother. all
concerned would be glad to do some
thing for him but it appears that the
boy is incorrigible and unapprecia-
tive of the efforts in his behalf HE
refuses to go to school He claims
the LIQUOR with which he beca6e in
toxicated was given him by snHe man
and the police are making al inveS
tigation with view to causing an r.
rest.

Two more cases OF Brights Disease that

tails had failed and life was despared OF.
one IN John II. Gyselaar, the well
known merchant OF Eureka, Cal. He was
In the Lane Hospital In san Francisco
for three months. Was 80 swollen with
dropsy he had TO be tapped every ten
days He was steadily sinking when his
family took him home and put him on
Fulton's Renal Compound for Brights
Disease. The tappings ceased and he be-
gan to mend, and IL now perfectly well.
Everybody In Eureka knows OF his mirac-
ulous escape.
Another case Is that Of Mr.. T. ]. Mulloy
OF 23l6 Bryant ST., San Francisco. a few
months ago he was In the u, $, Marine
Hospital In that city and was so low with
Brights Disease that his sister, Mrs.
French was advised by the physician in
charge that a fatal end was Inevitable
and close at hand. She took him home
and put him on the same treatment that
saved Gyselanr. He recovered and Ave
months later returned to his employment.

out the aid of Congress to turn the overflow of immigration at Ellis Island to a southern port, or perhaps to a gulf port and also 10 South Atlantic port One-half of the immigrants could to their own advantage and to that of the country be landed at Galveston or New Orleans and at Savannah or Charles ton. That would relieve the congestion both at Ellis Island and in the eastern cities. Immigrants could be trans. ported as cheaply and quickly to the far west from Galveston or New Or leans as they now are from Ellis Island.
 Secretary Metcalf should take down his map and look at the cotton belt and study it's needs. This would point at once to a policy that would speedily end oyererowding at Ellis Island, and be satisfactory to a wide sweep of states that sorely needs more white farmers and workmen.

Premier CIemenceau's Plans.

No one knows what Dr. Georges Clemenceau will or will not do when he becomes the real head of France. He is bold, strong man, full of ambi- tion. He is a born fighter, and a born radical. All the rest Is conjecture. What his well-known proclivitles will lead him to attempt when clothed with power, no one can say. He will hot rest content within the lines of red tape. He has no respect for it, or for that matter for anything else.
 He has an American wife, and he was imprisoned during the days of the second empire. This caused him to come to this country, and he stayed here four years,
 The separation law, and income tax and the naturalization of mines and railroads will all rise up before him demanding action if not settlement EdCn 10 d SltdI QutotiOll, duu tdCu Will confront the new premier who will practically be the entire minisrry.
 When responsibility falls full upon the shoulders of M. Clemenceau he may lose some of his radicalism, Eut those who know him best think he will block out daring programme in the hope that it will become historic He may even fight Germany, for he is de- cldedly anti-German. It Is commonly believed that he will arrange q ,nodus vivendl with the Vatican over the sep aration law that he may prosecute un- hindered ambitious plans in other directions. But the truth is, no one knows what he will do. and his govern mental policy may not be announced until next month. The chamber is to be asked to adjourn to October 30 in order to let the premi9r prepare his progfamme.

Ellis Island and Immigrants.

Secretary Metcalf of the department of commerce and labor recently visited Ellis island, where he inspected the detention quarters for immigrants. He at once pronounced the island over crowded. He declared it too small to serve immigration purposes.
 He had many suggestions to offer many remedies for lessening the trouble. The island could be enlarged. Congress should act. Examination boards could be established in Euro pean ports. MT. Metcalf lives in San Francisco. He knows the needs of the Pacific coast and perhaps of the far west. but he evidently does not know that the cotton-growing states consti' tute a considerable and valuable part of the republic The needs and possl- bilities of the cotton belt did not at any rate rise up before him when he was trying to solve the Ellis Island problem.
 The Age-Herald begs to suggest that he let Ellis Island, well equipped with new buildings, stand as it is, and that ha take steps either through or with

Senator Burton In Jail.

Former United States Senator J. R.. Burton of Kansas is lodged in jail at Ironton, Mo. He goes to jail for six months because he served his state in the Senate and bucket shop in the postoffice department simultaneously, which is contrary to the law in that case made and provided. He went to prison full of cheer and philosophy, and the public will soon no doubt for get him and his quick transfer from the Senate to a county jail.
 Nevertheless his incarceration is a step in the course of the nation. It stands by itself, there being no ante cedent case in the records of the coun- try. No Senator had been transferred by the courts to jail to serve out a considerable sentence. He may not sleep many nights in a cell, and he will not be put on jail rations. His meals and his bed will no doubt be specially furnished. He will in other words, be a privileged prisoner. The jail service of the rich and the jail service of the poor and friendless are two quite different matters.
 But still Burton is, technically speak ing. in iail, and the bare fact that a Senator can be jailed at all will oper- ate to render all members of Congress more careful when they mix up public and private duties in the course of their respective terms. The Burton term of jail service may not put an end to all grating in Congress, but it will pull in that direction, and every little helps in the slow movement up the hill of Reform.

Alabama's Pension List.

The war was ended little more than forty-one years ago, and scarcely a survivor of it is less than sixty years old. Many have passed the allotted age of man, and a few are four-score. It will thus be seen that we cannot hope to keep the veterans much longer in this world, and this is why the state should strain a point to make their last days comfortable.
 Only few, comparatively speaking. can be cared for in the retreat founded by Colonel Falkner at Mountain Creek. The great majority of our veterans prefer to stay among their friends and kinsfolk, and pension money thus be- comes the best, and that can be ex- tended to our old Confederate soldiers or to their widows.
 The state will this year pay to 15,475 veterans S473,250. The larger part of this sum will be distributed to the veterans of the fourth class, who will receive $30 apiece The income of the state is constantly rising, and there would be no extravaganza, no waste, no displacement of public moneys, if the pensions of fourth-class veterans were increased to $50 each. This would cost about $3O0,OOO a year addi. tional. This would but put Alabama on a level with Georgia, state that has always recognized the claims of the veterans upon her treasury. In view of the fact that the old soldiers are coming down the home-stretch of life, it does seem as if the next legisla- ture would not act amiss if they should increase the pay of fourth-class pen sioners to $50.
