NO BABY, NO BALLOT.

Father Phelan of St. Louis is adj
yocating that votes be given to a
family in proportion to the number
of children, and Archbishop Diomede
Falconio is quoted as expressing his
appreciation. The slogan mo child,
no ballot" will no doubt bring them
notoriety, but 1t is doubtful IL any
ng else can result.
At first glance the plan may seem
20 some to possess merit, but run
your finger down the long list of
Games of men who have made our
country the power that II is, and
you will find very many who under
Father Phelan's doctrine would be
DISTINGUISHED.
Do you consider that our first Pres
ident, George Washington. who had
no children. was less qualified to
vote intelligently than a stock
yards laborer who had ten, but was
unable to write his own name?
The fact that mans. family
numbers dozen or more is no argu-
ment that he IL good citizen, nor
a good man. Quite often 1t is the
reverse. There are large families
that are the most delightful sight
one could imagine, but a great many
more large families are growing up
under conditions indescribably sor-
did
a puny little girl, whose invalid
mother Is unable to give even medi-
ocre attention to her children, said
with much pride the other day:
I'VE are very large family. There
are ten of us dead, and my little
brother has fits" Yet Father
Phelan and an archbishop would
give this uniformed, undisciplined
father twelve votes, and, for exam
pie, to men like Clifford Pinchot and
Francis J. Heney they would give ne
vote at all. :
The man who has never felt the
arms of child, his own child, about
his neck, nor the warm little lips
pressed against his cheek, has miss
ed the greatest gift tihat the Ruler
of the Universe conferred upon NOR
! tails. He may not think so now, but
1t is nevertheless true, and the
childless man deserves pity, not
punishment.

diate assistants were pushing the
Cunningham Alaska coal land cases
to a hearing before the Government
was in possession of sufficient facts
to warrant hope of success. The
reply which Mr.. Ballinger took to
the President declared that the Gov
eminent already is in a position to
carry these cases to trial with every
confidence of victory.
In addition TO the report prepared
by the Assistant Secretary of the In
terror, the Commissioner of the Cen
field inspection service, Secretary
Ballinger took to the President a
special report Of his own. This was
prepared after his arrival In Wash
lngton from Seattle.
The CLAWS report purports to
show that the Interior Department
officials by their haste would throw
the verdict into the hands of the
Cunningham claimants. The reply
to these charges was framed for the
purpose of proving that the Interior
Department Is in possession OF
enough facts to warrant instant ac-
ton. The supporters of CLAWS
declare that this evidence, though
in all likelihood now in the hands
of the department, could not have
been available had the original or
ders of Assistant Secretary Pierce to
rush the cases to trial been follow
ed. They believe that the protests
Of CLAWS and of Sheridan, who was
sent by the Land Office to succeed
him in the supervision of the Cum
ningham cases, were the only causes
of the postpOnement of the hearings
until the middle of October. Ac-
cording to all the information avail
able, 1t seems clear that the charges
of CLAWS were meant to convey the
impression that the Cunningham
crowd would be benefited by the
original orders of the Interior De-
partment.
The coming battle between the
Cunningham claimants and the Gov
eminent is generally looked upon AZ
struggle between the Guggen-
helms, as proprietors of the Smelt-
er Trust, and the Government of the
United States. II is known that the
Guggenheims paid the expenses of
agents to inspect the tract of 5,2sO
acres Of coal lands north of Katalla,
Alaska, the ownership of which will
be decided by the approaching hear
ings. 1t also has been admitted by

Evidence of connection between

Of his supporters, will lend addition
al interest to controversy which
already has become famous on ac-
count of the active hostility between
the Forest Service and the Interior
Department and because of the inn
mense value of the lands involved in
the coming decision.
According to various estimates
made of the value of coal underlying
the claims filed by Cunningham and
his thirty-two associates, the tract
is worth all the way from $4,000
600 to s1S,O0O.OOO. This represents
the value of the coal as II lies. Coal

The ALASKA Land FRAUDS.

Just after his departure for the
West President Taft approved the
removal from Office of Inspector
CLAWS of the Public Lands office on
the charge of having criticised his
superiors and gone over their
heads" By so doing Mr.. Taft up
held his Secretary of the Interior,
but he by no means closed the Bit
ter and serious controversy that is
on regarding the handling of public
lands and the treatment of what Mr..
Roosevelt would probably call
wealthy malefactors.
There are millions of the public
property at stake, and, what Is more
important, great principle, in the
contest that has grown out OF the
alleged frauds in securing tracts of
coal lands in Alaska of large area
and tremendous wealth.
CLAWS made an attack on Secre-
tary Ballinger, and 1t was necessary
for the President to remove either
the Land Inspector or his Secretary
OF the Interior. ...
In the main, the criticisms lev
elled by Inspector CLAWS at Balm
ger, Pierce, bennett and Schwartz

was of huge dimensions, and not
more than 200 yards away. The
hunters surrounded the animal,
crept along cautiously till within

fired simultaneously.
The walrus rolled over, but
speedily got up again, and tried
to make his escape. But Alta
mont fell upon him with his
Ratchet, and cut off his dorsal
fin. He made a desperate resist
ance, but was overpowered by
his enemies, and soon lay dead,
reddening the ice field with his
blood.
1t was fine animal, measuring
more than 15 feet in length, and
would have been worth a good

contented themselves with cutting
off the most savory parts, and
left the rest to the ravens, who
had just begun to make their ap-

He passed the night sleeping at
