CHEER THE WRONG MN.
Fresh dir Fund Children THOUGHT
He Vas President Roosevelt.

President Roosevelt missed a hearty cheer by
not being the elevated platform at 155th street
and Eighth avenue yesterday afternoon It was
there that 40 children. who were on their way to
Ardsley, N. Y. where they were sent by the Trfb-
une Fresh Air Fund. were gathered when a stout
man with glasses and a mustache came along and
stopped to look at the group. Then he went over
and began to talk to girl.
AS the walked away the little girl turned 70
her companions and said.
SAY. I think that's President Roosevelt"
When the next girl repeated II there was no
guess about it, II was President Roosevelt Every
girl was staring at the IN awed wonder
Then the boys IN the company heard the news
Bat there owed wonder after youngster
had said, Say. let's give him a cheer And
cheer they did while the man. all unconscious OF
what happening, walked UP the stairs and
over the bridge 70 the baseball game.
This party Of 10 completed the list for the DAY,
which numbered 80 in all In the morning fifty
girls sent st. Helen's Home, Interlaken.
Mass. where they win be entertained by John E
Parsons for two weeks. Probably there no
more needy children sent out by the fresh
air fund than those who went yesterday. The mis-
sonary who told about them said that thoy
represented twenty-five homes. and that in four
teen OF tho twenty-five homes the children were
either orphans or half orphans. Some came from
places where mother was trying To support
family OF five six by taking in washing. In
place two girls OF fifteen and sixteen were the
only support OF family OF six. Another child
from home where a family OF seven we're
living in two rooms
The missionary said that she had had TO lit out
almost every child with outfit OF clothing before
they were in condition 70 so 70 the station To
get the fifty cleaned and ready had taken two
weeks % hard work the part Of two women
Yet IT would have been hard TO find a brighter or
a prettier aggregation Of children than those
fifty yesterday morning.
The missionary also had something TO say about
the heat IN the places where these children live

PACKER AND RANCHMAN.

The difficulties OF drawing the line some
where" are beautifully illustrated in the So
called "post-mortem inspection" controversy
now raging between the livestock commission
men and the meat packers. The packers have
been demanding the privilege of being excused
from paying for cattle found after slaughter to
be diseased The ranchmen and their commits
sion agents object to this, urging that the pack
ers have no reason to demand more than a
rigid ante-mortem inspection and the right to
tag all suspected cattle and turn them over
10 the government inspectors, to be handled for
the account of the owner on the same terms on
which diseased cattle are now handled.
The rule of caUeGt enpptOr IS hard to apply
here satisfactorily, because Of the long range
OF the modern mlscroSCope. Shall q diseased
steer be which manifests some symptoms
Of decrepitude while still a steer2 Or shall
1t be one whose carcass, under the Argus eyes
Of the biological microscope, IS found tainted
with wicked bacn? Or shall it be one which
causes govt III the grandchildren OF those who
eat Of it2 If the pure food theory is applied
consistently, the packers ought to be relieved
Of the trouble of paying for cattle causing Ill
health at any point in history. This goes to
prove that pure food cannot be manufactured
and used by pure reason.

VTTISENTTON.

However personal feelings may differ as to
the right of the community to tolerate vlvi-
section for the sake Of discovering useful facts,
the action Of the Society for the Prevention Of
Cruelty to Animals in investigating the ISLAM
estng" Of two puppies at the Bradford Street
Hospital In Brooklyn must be commented, as
must also the promise Of the societys officers
that they Will endeayor to see to 1t that tho
physicians who conducted the operation are
punished If it can be proved that they viO-
lated the law in any respect
In the present state Of medical and surgical
science vivisection is probably a necessary pro-
cedure under certain exceptional circumstances.
But public policy and the demands Of science
restrict the practice to cases which have been
chosen with deiberatiOn by a number of OK
perts competent to decide whether or not the
probable contribution Of the experiment TO
human knowledge and welfare Outwelghs the
pain which the victim must suffer. The law ~
New York State provides that no vIvisectng
operation shall be performed except under the
direction Of the faculty of some regularly In
corpOrated medical college attached to the
University of the State OF New York. This re-
strictlon is q wise one, and 1t should be rigtdly
enforced 1t Is easy enough, perhaps too easy,
for competent surgeon who IS known 10 be
conducting researches along a certain line to
secure the cooperation of q medical college
whenever he deems an experiment involving
vivisectlon necessary, and there must accord
mgly be a strong presumption that surgeons
who conduct Clandes1ne studies n vfvisectOn
without the sanction Of a medical faculty are
doing something for which they know they
could not obtain permission
There may be some good reason for wishing
10 ascertain whether Il single circulation OF
blood can be induced in the bodies OF two
dogs but if SO, it IS the duty Of those who seek
information on this subject to respect the man
dates Of a liberal and fair law. II the expert
mentors who are to be subjected 20 investigation
have really violated the statutes they should
be punished-not simply out of revenge for the
sufferings inflicted upon the puppies. but chiefly
TO Impress upon scientists, real and self-stylcd.
that disregard OF the law IS no more 10 be
ignored in such case than It IS in commercial
transactions

find one. The federal Constitution recognized
the old idea when it prescribed that a Senator
must be at the time of his election an inhab
liant of the state from which he was elected.
But the sentiment Of state pride rather than
this palpably elastic requirement has thus far
initiated against imported statesmen and con-
fined legislatures generally in their choice Of
Senators to aspirants associated with native
life and interests.
1t is not impossible that Mr.. Williams, if de-
feated in Mississippi may find more apprecia-
tive constituency in Louisiana, and it is not i'm
probable that If Mr.. Bryan should settle In al
most any Southern state he would soon there
after be sent to the United States Senate. Yet
such occurrences would reverse Southern ideas
and might be taken to indicate that the old
spirit of particularsm in that section was rap
idly yielding to the spirit Of nationalism. Are
the Southern States to set the example of going
into the general market for legislators, as Eng
llSh constituencies do, and thereby establishing
school in this country of perlpatetic statesmen?

PERIPATETIe STATESMEN.

Senator Samuel D. McEnery, Of Louisiana,
though a Southerner of the old school, has Just
made a suggestion which seems 10 minimize, If
not upset, traditional Southern theories Of state
loyalty and state paramountcy. He thinks that
If q political leader fails Of proper appreciation
among his own people he should move along
and give some other constituency a chance TO
avail itself OF his talents. Mr.. McEnery was
reported saying the other day at a Mississippi
summer resort:
II Mississippi does not appreciate John Sharp
Williams enough 10 send him 10 the United
states Senate, he has only to move TO Louisiana
and 1 VIII resign my seat in his favor.
This sentiment does credit to the generosity
Of the senior Senator from Louisiana and gives
evidence Of the depth and unselishness of his
friendships Mr.. Williams should feel fattered
and grateful. for few statesmen have been so
positively assured, in case Of defeat at home,
OF recognition and promotion at the hands Of
political strangers. It Is true that the Hon. JO-
seph W. Bailey. when recently upbraidlng the
Legislature Of Texas for undertaking. his worth
and accomplishments, asserted that he had re-
ceived various tempting offers to represent in
the Senate certain less tickle and more observ-
ant commemorative But no specifications were
given and no evidence Of abnegation on the part
Of colleagues from other states was put on the
record. Had Mr.. Bailey been defeated such a
spirit Ol Sell-bocEilltS MI
Williams can justly claim pre-eminence. how
ever, In having created demand for his polt-
zeal services which CELEBRATES state lines and
old fashioned state exclusiveness.
1t is curious that this disposition to forego
old traditions of state pride and state su1clency
should show itself in the Soutb-the home OF

various conventions and bodies, where there was
q mere bilateral contest there would be SOo
names on a ballot, and with three tickets in the

voter would be obliged to grope blindly to pick
out one by the names Of the men VINO
