SAVING THE CHILD WIVES.
Mrs. Wallace Describes the Evils of
midas Marriage System.

In discussing The Child Wives of
India" before a large audience Of women
yesterday afternoon Mrs. Caroline p.
Wallace predicted that the worst features
Of the system of child marriage in the
Hindoo land will be changed in the next
five years.
Mrs. Wallace described the evils of the
system to the audience in the Fifth Bap-
fist Church yesterday, and before an
other gathering under the auspices Of the
Women's INSTRUMENTATION Missionary
Union in the Luther Place Memorial
Church this morning.
The remedy for the evil, Mrs. Wallace
said. Is found in education rather than in
legislation. che system has been in vogue
for so many generations among the
Hindoos that they know nothing better.
and therefore the educational process IS
slow. AS the English government has
adhered to a rule not to interfere in the
religious affairs OF its dependencies, II has
hesitated to take any definite step against
the system. But the missionaries hope to
accomplish a change by appealing TO the
higher nature of the iindoo.
Mrs. Wallace explained that she Is try
ing to form. in every city of the country,
a league devoted to the cause which she
represents and furnishing money for con-
tinuing the missionary work IN India.

Capitalization.

Among many voters in the recent
campaign, some fear was entertained
over possible evil consequences of a
so-called Capitalization of power in
the federal government. Some were
OF the opinion that GENERALIZATION"
meant robbery Of local government,
corruption, class discrimination, de-
cay. The question was argued dur
ing the campaign, but there are
many yet who entertain some fear OF
a Capitalization of power in our
government In his last annual
message TO Congress. President
Roosevelt devoted an interesting
paragraph to this question Of cen
trallzation, pointing out that not
more power, Is wanted or needed, but
the means of adequately using al
ready existing power in the proper
channels, and this distinction should
he carefully considered by those to
whom the question does not seem
quite clear.
After enumerating the measures
deemed by him to be vitality neces-
sary for the federal regulation OF in
terstate corporations, President
Roosevelt states:
To accomplish this. means of
course n certain increase in the use
oE-not the creation of-power, by
the Central Government. The power
already exists; it does not have to
he created; the only question is
whether it shall be used or left idle
and meanwhile the corporations
over which the power ought to be
exercised will not remain idle. Let
those who object to this increase in
the use of the only power available.
the national power, he frank, and
admit openly that they propose to
abandon any effort to control the
great business corporations and to
exercise supervision over the accum-
ulation and distribution of wealth,
for such supervision and control can
only come through this particular
kind of increase of power. We no
more believe in that empiricism
which demands absolutely unre-
strained individualism than we do
in that empiricism which clamors for
a deadening socialism which would
destroy all individual initiative and
would ruin the country with COM
pleteness that not even an unrestrain-
ed indivIduaHsm itself could achieve.
The dagger to American delNocracy
lies not In the least in the concen-
responsible and accountable hands.
1t lies In having the power insuffic-
fently concentrated, so that no one
can he held responsible to the people
for its use. oncentrated power Is
palpabIe. visible, responsible, easily
reached. quickly held to account.
Power scattered through many adj
ministrators, many Legislators, many
men who work behind and through
legislators and administrators, Is i'm

can not he reached, can not be held
to account. Democracy Is in peril
wherever the administration Of poll
tical power Is scattered among a
variety of men who work in secret,
whose very names are unknown to
the common people. 1t is not in
peril from any man who derives au-
thority from the people, who eXer-
cises 1t in sight of the people, and
who Is from time to time compelled
to give an account OF its exercise to
the people"

The way in which some Democratic
newspapers admonish their home peo-
pie to patronize home industries in
the matter OF buying Christmas
goods is quite inconsistent with their
attitude In regard to protecting home
industries in the levying of the tariff.
In this instance, at least, they aban-
don the old Democratic idea of free
trade and adopt the Republican
theory OF protection.
