WIFE SAYS RIPLINGER
 INNOCENT
Nuggets Special Service.


 SEATTLE, Aug. 1.-Riplinger's wife, who has arrived here says that her husband will return soon to face the charges of embezzlement levelled against him in connection with his oc- cupation of the position of controller,
 She also states that his disclosures will be sensational, and will make many of the most prominent men in the city feel uncomfortable.
 Her statements have already given rise to many conjectures as to whom the men are, but as a rule her words are taken as meaning only what such words under such circumstances mean usually-merely an attempt to remove the prejudice of the public from the defaulter.

DIMINISHING ENGLISH HEADS.

An English physician, on the author
ity of ''one of the largest hat makers in
the United Kingdom" graVely an
nOunces that the British head is grow
ing smaller. The hat maker, it ap-
pears, informed him that he is making
and selling more small hats than ever
before in his history. And the learned
physician hastens to the conclusion
that there is a big diminutiOn in the
national brain box" Now we suppose
a statement like that made by a citizen
of another nation would be regarded by
England as a casIs belli.
For our own part, we are not in
TiOusly. Indeed, We doubt if he intend
ed himself to be taken seriously. DR..
Osler, it will be remembered. created
a terrible uproar with his assertion
that when men reach the age of 40
years they have passed the period of
their greatest usefulness, and at So if
our recollection is correct, they should
be chloroformed. When taken to task,
DR.. Osler said he never had any idea
that his statement would be taken as
expressing his real opinion.
The English doctor talked to the hat
man at the wrong time. 1t was just
before the Fourth of July, and that
date in history always causes a, dimi-
mutton in the British brain box. Fur
Their diminution is caused by a recOI-
lection of the war of 1872, when Eng
land again undertook TO discipline the
United States with disastrous results
to herself. Then, too the Boer war was
not calculated TO cause any enlarge
case as mildly as possible, for it took
that great nation more than year to
whip a handful of self-expatriated
DLtchmen in South Africa.
Joking aside, it is not fair to base a
sweeping theory such as the one quot
ed on the testimony of a single halter
If a census were taken of all the hat
tiers of Great Britain and statistics
were carefully compiled, and if those
statistics should show that the aver
smaller than the average hat size Of
former years it might prove something.
1t might even prove that our English
cousins who have brain boxes of the
larger sizes are demonstrating the
value of their possession by leaving old
England and coming over to dwell in
the United States.

INCREASING cITYs BURDEN.

According to the official figures fur
rished by the city auditor, the over
draft in the contingent fund, which is
the general expense fund of the city,
was S172.O on June 20. According to
the same official statement, the net to-
tai overdraft on all city funds for the
same date was over 100000
Six months of operations remain to
be met out of this years taxes, which
will be paid in November, and at
very conservative estimate the deficit
in the contingent, or operating fund,
viii be over s1OO, 900 after all the taxes
are in.
That tells the whole story of the
city's financial management under this
administration, a management that is
deliberately creating a deficit in spite
of the fact that the law prohibits such
action, a management which is willing
TO continue a recklessly extravagant
policy in the face of a certain shortage
in funds at the end of the year.
Incidentally, it may be noted that
the American" morning newspaper,
which got the city auditors state
ment at the same time it was given to
The Herald, did not publish the figures,
although the average newspaper would
regard the showing as a matter of con-
siderable news interest, particularly to
the taxpayers. 1t did, however, assert
that this deficit was due TO unpaid
claims left over from the Morris adj
ministration.
The assertion is not true, but even
If it were, that would not excuse the
delinquency of the Thompson admin
istration. 1t is eighteen months since
the Americans" took office: they have
had ample time TO make their expen-
ditures fit their revenues. They knew
about what they were receiving and
what they were expendins. They chose
TO ignore the cOmmOnest rules of bus
mess caution and have already loaded
the city down with what will be a
heavy burden of floating indebtedness
by the end of the year. They have
reached the limit of taxation under the
law, and they disregard that obvious
fact They mean to spend all the mon
ey they can regardless of income and
then charge it to a previous admins
tration-a weak, puerile defense, a
baby plea that is d confession Of in
competence on the face of it.
The city administration ought either
to begin economizing or else stand I'D
and admit that it has no intention of
running the city's business on business
principles 1t can't come in eighteen
months after it took office and offer
as an excuse for it's extravaganza
comings of former administration.

who will have the final say on all leg
islative matters.
1t is not so surprising, therefore,
that the Filipinos should refrain from
registering and voting. If they had
been definitely promised a government
of their own they might be expected to
take an interest, at least in this, their
first opportunity to cast ballots. But
even so, they are missing a great OPP
portunity to show that they are intel
ligent enough to assist in governing
themselves. All persons qualified to
vote should certainly have placed
themselves in a position to do so.
AS matters stand, an expression of
the popular will next Saturday is
hardly possible. The percentage of
stay-at-homes is too great. The Fill
ipinos are in need of further educa-
ton. At the same time we must re-
member that there are in this enlight-
ened country thousands of men who
do not take enough interest in their
government to register and vote. There
are thousands who never attend a pri-
mary election or a convention of any
party, either as spectators or as del
egates.
And it is pointed out, further, that,
though Austria has a law to compel
the exercise of the franchise, more
than 10000 of her citizens refrained
from voting at the last election held in
that country.

POLITICS IN THE PHILIPPINES.

Next Saturday, July 20. the first cleo
ton ever held in the Philippine Is
lands is scheduled to take place. AL
though the date for the voting is just
a week off. 1t is said that very little in
terest has been aroused In fact. II
was only with the greatest difficulty
that enough voters to make a re
spectacle showing could be persuaded
to register. The population of the
Philippines is 100000. The total regis
tration is about 81, 1000.
In Manila, with population Of 22O.-
900. there are only 1900 registered vot-
ers, and this total includes nearly
LOCO Americans. In the United States
a total population of 7,O0OO 900 would cali
for voting list of at least 1000. 600.
About 100000 votes were cast in the
presidential election Of 1900 in this
country, out of a total population of
100000. 1t seems to be evident that
the Filipinos do not care a great deal
about participating in the affairs of
government.
There are reasons for this. The COM
ing election will by no means place
the government of the islands in the
hands of the FilipinOs. They will vote
only for members of territorial house
Of representatives. Above this house
is to be an appointive council with
full power TO shelve any legislation
that the representatives of the island
ers may attempt. And above the coun-
~il is an appointive governor general

ROOSTER CAUSES PROTEST.
Early Morning Growing Disturbs
Somnolent Citizens.

The silence which has prevailed among
citizens of Washington regarding the keep
ing of chickens and the Growing Of roosters,
since the stringent regulation governing
the keeping Of fowls was promulgated by
the Commissioners last fall, has been
broken. In spite Of these strict regulations,
pet ROSTERS are becoming unruly and are
giving vent to their cooped-up lungs, much
to the displeasure of sleepers nearby. and'
as Is customary In such cases, protest
has been made to the Commissioners and
request made for relief
The protest in this case is in the form of
a petition signed by half dozen residents
in the vicinity of 10th and M streets north
west The object of their complaint is
lusty-voiced rooster confined in a yard in
the rear of 10th street The petitioners de-
clare that the regularity OF this ROSTERS
Growing is such as to prevent sleep in the
neighborhood after o'clock in the morn
ing The petition was headed by Mrs. Silas
Boyce and the matter has been referred to
the police of the second precinct.

GOES TO NEW FIELD.
Falls Church Man to Teach in Chinese
School,

testimonial service at Fort Myer
Heights Baptist Chapel yesterday for Percy
Trip Of Falls Church brought out facts of
much interest in the Christian world. Mr..
Trip, who has supplied the chapel pulpit
for six months past recently returned from
the Moody students conference at North
field Conn. While there he received an ap-
pointment as teacher in the government
schools at Tientsin China, and the service
yesterday was the last before leaving for
his new field of work.
After explaining something of the work
at the conference where 100 colleges in
northeastern United States and eastern
Canada were represented by 100 students,
Mr.. Trip told his audience Of the work to
which he goes in China. His call came
from John r. Mott, international secretary
of the Young Mems Christian Association,
New York, upon cablegram from DE-
Galley. who is in charge of the Y. M. c. A.
work in north China, with headquarters at
Picking, asking for two young men as teach
ers. After conference with Mr.. Mott Mr..
Trip was notified of his selection as
teacher of English and history, and was in
formed that r. S. Hall. a graduate of
Worcester (Mass) Polytechnic School had
been appointed to the other place and would
accompany him on the journey to China.
This demand for teachers is believed to be
part Of an important change In Chinese
educational policy and to show the present
attitude of that government toward Chris
tan missionary work. 1t came to DR..
Galley as the Y. NJ C. A representative,
and 1t was stated, is the first case where
teachers for the government schools have
been asked for in this way. If the young
men named succeed it is expected that
many more teachers Will be wanted for
Chinese schools.
Mr.. Trip, who is about twenty-five years
old, has lived in Falls Church practically all
his life. He is the son Of NJ Tripp. a re-
tired timber and lumber dealer who located
here in 1869. He received his academic
schooling in Rockville Academy and in En-
erson Institute in this city when DR.. Young
was principal. He then went to Columbia
University, New York city. whore he grad
uated as bachelor of arts in 1906. He mas
since been engaged In religious work IN the
Falls Church Baptist mission field. He VIII
leave Washington about July 80 IN oroer 10
sail from Seattle on the Ak Maru ON Au-
gust 6. He will stop first at Yokohama LOT
a study Of the japanese scnools, upon
which. It is understood, the new Chlnese sys-
tenn is being modelled, and Will reach lien
tsin to begin work about the middle of
Sentember He has a two years contract
n,ifh the chinese officials in which he is
p,ven the privilege of engaging in Christian
Customary work. For this purpose both he
and Mr. Hall will take up the study Of the
chinese language at once. Their pupils In
the Chinese school, which is about the
grade Of our high schools, all understand
English, and the teaching Is in that lam
yuage.

OWNERS PROTEST.
Cement Sidewalk Not Wanted by Resi-
dents of q Street Block.

vigorous protest has been filed with the
Commissioners by number of property
owners on the north side Of U street be-
tween 18th and 14th streets northwest
against the proposed laying of a new
cement sidewalk in that block. The prop
erty owners who affixed their signatures to
the protest declared that the new side
walk Is not necessary, the surface is in
good condition, and although eight years
old, they believe it to be good enough to
last several more years.
In their protest they stated: There are
thousands of sidewalks in this city that
are In need of new surfaces. but you pay
no attention to them. Do you not think it
is an injustice to make us property owners
pay for work that Is not necessary?
C. B. Hunt, engineer Of highways. to
whom this protest was referred. stated to-
day that this pavement should be laid IN
spite of the opposition and his recommen-
dalton to this effect has been approved by
the board Of Commissioners
