STATE GOVERNED
BY CABINET

In an address before the league
Iclub of Chicago, February %, on the
occasion of the cOmmemOration OF
Washington birthday anniversary
Governor John Franklin Fort Of New
Jersey said, discussing the present
day tendency to concentrate great
power in the heads of administra-
Itions:
Man counts for more today, gen
|tlemen, than he has ever done in the
history of the world. Party has not
the potentially that it had some
Years ago. Not because parties are
not necessary, not because they are
not useful, but because the conditions
in the country now are not like they
were in 1860 and on, Immediately
after the war. Men then ran and
|stood for the party rather than for
the individual man. What we need
in our day more than anything else
is men with courage. and our free
school system. our colleges and our
universities are turning out a body
of youth like those whom / had the
honor to address this afternoon, who
are coming into public life and into
the usefulness Of this republic with
a spirit of patriotism, rather than
spirit of partizanship, directing them
in all that they do and in all that
they say. Disraeli said of Great
Britain that she put too much into
system and too little into men, and
that is true of us and has been true
of us largely in the past.
You know the old statement OF DR..
Smiles; all of us remember it from
the early school days, that I'VE have

HARD ON DIVORCED
MEN
JUDGE BALL DECLARES THAT
NEITHER LAPSE OF TIME NOR
ALIMONY.

Chicago, May 13.-Divorced men
have received a shock from Judge F.
@. Ball that has caused not a few
of them TO seek the advice of law
yers. Although divorced so years,
and although no mention of alimony
was made in the decree, no divorced
man, according to the decision of the
Judge, is safe from the payment of
alimony as long as his former wife
lives and fails to marry.
Judge Ball announced that, while a
decree of divorce ended the other
marital obligations, the right to de-
mand such support was not ended.
In other words, a wife who OBJ
tanned a divorce years ago can bob
up and, having discovered that her
former husband has become wealthy,
may go into court and successfully
demand her rights
That is, of course, providing that
she has not married in the mean
time, or did not accept a stipulated
alimony when she was divorced.
Even though the divorced husband
has married again, become the father
of 10 children. and may be even a
grandfather. the former wife's rights
to alimOny are not annulled in any
way.

AN IDEAL BOSTON
IN 1915

There is nothing like a watch word
to give definiteness to movement.
The organization of business men,
philanthropists. and other patriotic
citizens of Boston which has formu-
lated "A Plan of a Plan" for a bet
ter Boston takes as its watchword the
sentence Boston-1915-The Finest
City in the World" Concretely. il
isproposed to plan out all improve
ments and development possible of
execution in the next six years, to
work on the selected lines with the
date 1915 in mind, and at that time
to have kind of stock-taking of
what has actually been accomplished.
At great public meeting held to dis
cuss the project, the presiding officer,
Edward A. Filene, declared his be-
lief that the growth and welfare of
the city could be UNNECESSARILY helped
by coordination and planning ahead
Cities he said, Gin the past five
grown unguided. But change has
come in the world. Cities are being
planned now. And why not?" 1t is
not proposed to invent much new
machinery: Boston has numerous
agencies for good; but to coordinate
these agencies, to get individual men
and wOmen-and even children-tO
engage themselves to work practi-
cally. to give definite hours and days,
to do each an assigned share-all for
the better Boston of 1915. Thus, 4"
said Mr.. Filene, "the Chamber of
Commerce, the Boston Merchants
association, all the citizens associa-
tions, all the schools and churches
and theaters and libraries, shall have
their part, and each shall have the
help of all the others when needed"
Already an outline plan has been
formulated, and as it may we'll serve
as a suggestion for other cities and
as it also expresses practically the
Boston 1915" idea, We give it here
in its most condensed form:
Expert accounting of city fl
nances.
2-To understand waste and losses.
3-To have the best public health
body.
Careful accounting of human
resources.
5-Better relations between city
and employees.
extend present, introduce now
enterprises
Study and better New England
as a whole.
s-Organize great system of public
education
9-Intelligent system of transpor-
tation.
1O-To map physically perfect
Boston.
11-Establish neighborhooi CEN
tiers.
Irregular courses of lectures
in these.
13-Broaden public library
branches.
14-Increase knowledge by picture
and lecture.
15-Have more music in the pub
lie centers.
16-Pension plan for incapacitated
workers.

every man owes it to himself to seek
office when the people want to con-
fer it upon him. Sometimes men
seek it when the people do not wish
to have it conferred upon them, or
even when the appointing pOwed does

of the state appoints everything. We

who doesn't want it, but may be the

and there is no danger to it. No
governor in our state has ever been
able to promote himself or advance
himself in public office under our
system. We have but one governor
under our system who has gone to
the United States senate since 1914.
That is the only one and that was
Theodore Randolph. and that has
been so long ago that the memory
of man almost runneth not to the
contrary.
This idea of seeking office reminds
me of a man who died in our state

official positions. The next morn

the interest but the duty of America
Ito take no further action until it can
be seen whether this policy is sue
cessful; and this is just as wise, just
as incumbent on us, whether we do
or do not believe that it will be sue
cessful The success of the policy
must be gagged by its actual results;
that is, by the extent to which it ar
rests the immigration of large bodies
of japanese If the Japanese govern
ment proves unable to carry its policy
through, then undoubtedly this gov
eminent, by treaty or legislation,
must protect itself and secure the de-
sired results on its own initiative.
But in such case it would be doubly
incumbent upon us to take the action
in the way that would provoke the
least possible friction and cause the
least hard feeling. Moreover, We
should make it evident that the rec
ognition of the fact that it is to the
interest of both races that the masses
of both races should be kept apart is
in no way incompatible with the
heartiest feelings of mutual respect
and admiration between the two
races.
| The fact that all really patriotic
and far-sighted Americans insist that
hand in hand with a policy of good
will toward foreign nations should go

navy is often interpreted by we'll

Town shores; but we are powerless to
enforce this right against any nation

unless we continue to build up and
maintain a first-class fighting navy.
The professional peace advocate who
wishes us to stop building up our
navy is, in reality, seeking to put lis

nation that happened to wish to dis

citizens abroad. or to take any stand
whatever either for our own inter-
national honor or in the interest or
international righteousness. More
over. those well-meaning but fatuous
advocates of peace who would try to
prevent the upbuilding of our navy
utterly misread the temper of their
countrymen. We Americans are our
selves both proud and highspirited.
and we are not always by any means

against war that Uncle Sam can pos

fectlv legitimate inhabitant OF the
wilds, but has no rightful place III L
civilized community. The true regard
for the rights Of others, the lndl-
vidual's responsibility to the whole
or for the general welfare Of ones
fellows-theSe constitute an initial
fact upon which civilization is found
ed. A highly civilized person IS sensl-
lively aware Of the rights of others.
He is aware Of his personal respon-
sibility for the looks Of things. He
is aware of himself as being part
of the public and thereby having
ownership in all public property
which gives him pride in that which is
civic or public, equal with his pride
in that which is personal or private. .
If every citizen in the community
would constitute himself or herself a
committee of one to observe such
rules and be little more careful, 1t
would be very easy matter to have
a city beautiful.
The public places belong to the citl-
zens and every citizen has share IN
the responsibility for the appearance
of these public places.
AS the writer of the article to which
we refer says of Honea Path we might
say the same thing Of Newberry:
'!Our town has progressed and has
forged to the front in industry, hus-
tie, and thrift. We have come to the
point where we do not so much need
an increase of these things; but we
do need sadly more beauty. We need
things that are pleasant to look at
and things to enjoy. We need pleas
anter environment about our homes,
our yards, our schools and our pub
lice places. If these things were OF
more money value we would have
them, but being inexpensive they are
overlooked"
1t is true that we are measuring
everything by the money value. There
are certain things in life which can
not be purchased with money and it
is getting time that we should give
some attention to these other matters.

CIVIC IMPROVEMENT.

We desire to direct the attention OF
this community to an article publish
ed in another column, signed "G. n.
S." on civic Improvement.
This is a matter which is holding
the attention of this community at
presel.t. and we have taken this artl-
Gle from the Honea Path Chronicle
because it is we'll written and applies
with equal force to Newherry. The
matter of civic improvement is at
tracing attention everywhere now,
and in connection with the efforts of
the physicians and other citizens to
prevent the spread Of disease and es-
pecially tuberculosis, it is necessary
to observe certain rules Of cleanliness
and, in fact, we believe that Is one OF
the main things in preventing the
spread Of disease.
We feel that the following para
graph is worthy of reproduction IN this
connection from the arcicle to which
We refer:
