and microscopical examination in the

the feed is in reality composed of

in death. Rice hulls, Professor

The Spokesman-Reyiew independ-
ent Republican, the leading daily of
the state, says, editorially:
Case of Schively
Schivelys guilt was proven to the
satisfaction of a majority of the state
senators, but he escaped convict on
under the constitutional provision
which requires "a concurrence of two
thirds of the senators elected"
He was saved from conviction, too,
by the shrewd technical defense of
his attorney, who raised the point
that when the alleged acts of NAL
Ifeasance were committed Schively
was only a deputy and should not
now, while holding the office of in
Isurance commissioner, be punished
for offenses perpetrated before he was
elected to a state office.
The Spokesman-RevieW terms this
a technical defense, as it is the clear
intent of the constitution that the
public should have an adequate me-
thod of dlscharging unfit officials. 1t
goes without saying that no private
employer whose interests had been
abused by an emplOye as the state
has been treated by Schiyely would
condone the offense and continue the
unfit person in a position of great
trust and responsibility.
But Schively owes his narrow es-
cape from conviction to something
more than technicality. He was
saved by a political system" In
fluencial ring politicians stood stub
bornly in his defense from two mo-
tives-one of loyalty to a friend
protection. Schively is not the only
state official who has been skating on
thin ice, and some of his alarmed
associates stood resolutely by him
all through the regular session, op-
| posing an investigation of his office
from fear that once the search
/ light began to operate, it would be
! turned on them as well as upon
Schiyely.
The little gang of senators who
have blocked the righteous efforts OF
Governor Hay will find it difficult
to square themselves with their con.
stituents. They and Schively have
won a technical victory, but the mora
triumph is with Governor Hay anC
the better elements of the state sen
ate.
1t yet lies III tire power of the legis
lature to rid the state of Schively by
abolishing his Office. But even il
this should fail, Schively has beer
so thoroughly discredited, and will
be kept under such close espionage
for the remainder of his term, thaf
his power for evil will be greatly dim
inished and a little time will serve
thoroughly to relegate him to poll
tical oblivion.

The Lesson of Schively

The Lesson of Schiyely
The failure of the state senate to
remove John H. Shiyely, the insur-
ance commissioner, from the office he
has disgraced, does not close the is
sue; the issue merely passes to an
other stage and assumes more acute
form.
The Republican party will appeal
from a Republican minority in the
senate to the great body of Republi-
cans in the state of Washington.
Taking the most liberal view of
Schively's shortcomings, no intelli-
gent man could, with a clear con-
science, vote to keep him in office
Admissions made by him, without re-
gard to any other fact in the record,
should have closed his case. Senators
who voted to keep him in office will
not be able to hide behind the tech
nicalities upon which they pretend
ed to predicate their votes.
The lesson of the Schively case
from it's inception, when the legisla-
ture played with it, down to it's dis
graceful and humiliating close, is
perfectly plain. The Republican
party of this state must have lead
err who is aggressive and strong
enough to drive out the unclean ele-
ments and scourge the betrayers from
the camp.
Between the honest Republicans
of this state, and dishonest Republi-
cans who vote to keep a confessed
CRATER in the public service, there is
a line winch cannot again be cross
ed This is a Republican state In
the public affairs of the common
wealth the party has a record foI
honesty, faithfulness and efficiency
which it cannot and will not allow
a pusilanimous and pandering min
GRITTY to faint, and the men who have
been brazen enough to think they
can ram this unclean mOrsel down the
threats of Republicans who believe
in a fair degree of decency in the
public service, will have to count the
votes before they get the verdict.
Out of the saturnalia of wrong
there will spring a robust, aggres
siye and fearless leadership, not only
in the state, but in every county anC
community of the state. and the
rank and file of the Republican party
betrayed and outraged by men too
much honored, plundered and prey
ed upon by pettifoggers and place
hunters, will rally around the banner
Unclean men who have soiled com
missions given them by the Republi
can party must surrender them. Th'
Republican party of this state is too
big, too honest and honorable in pur
pose and achievement, to be domi
mated by an INSCRIPTIONS minority
This issue will be closed only whel
it is rightly closed, and a majorit,
of the more than 100000 Republican
in this state will not only write thu
final judgm ent, but they will execute
the decree.

London Daily Mail.
 Prof. William Stirling elaborated yesterday his views on the handsha ake.
 As reported in this journal, Prof. Stirling In his lecture to children at the Royal Institution on Thursday said that some people had hands like dippers-there was no vigor about the grasp.
 "There are nearly as many kinds of handshakes as there are kinds of men, said the professor yesterday. There is the hearty shake, the two-finger shake. the formal shake. and the this tledown shake at the night of the
 There is the cold hand, and there Is the hot hand. the hand that is moist and clammy. the hand that is more like a tiipper than an organ of prehension. There is the tender pres sure. the vigorous squeeze. and tho frlgid extension. as if one were suh- hitting to a painful operation.
 "A true handshake is like quarrel or marriage; It takes two to make thetic, grasp, with just enough pres fiicting discomfort--that Is the real handshake.
 "A handshake is infinitely preferable as a greeting to the promiscuous kiss ing one sometimes sees. Apart alto- gether from the fact that specific dis ease may be conveyed by the contact of the lips, too much kissing Is always to be discouraged. The mother who will never allow anybody to kiss their babies lips have taken a wise and sound decision.

 Work at night may be conducted at the discretion of the manager in some states. in eighteen it is restricted to .ne sixteenth birthday. The educa- tional standard is being set in almost every state. This is a remarkably aS vanced step when 1t is remembered that there are only two southern states that have compulsory education laws-kentucky and Maryland. These varying laws require that each child who warks in the mills must have had certain amount of education, or must have attended school a stipulated time. As there are in the United States 579.- sa1 illiterates between the ages of ten ana fourteen. and the majority of these are in thirteen southern states, the wisdom of this step is apparent
 Modern altruism Is trying in other ways besides legislation to get child ren out Of Eainful pursuits and into schools that will train them for bet. ter work.

Something of the same con. d,tton exists at the present time.

Philadelphia organiza- tions gave twenty-eight such scholar ships last year. St. Louis places them through the Children's Protective Al lfance and the women's clubs. Pitts. burgh.

In . sermon few days ago an OhN preacher acclaimed against the habit of kissing. "The kiss is an intoxicant. and like the saloon. must go," he de- clared. It's just as we have been ex- pecting. The mania for prohibiting things. and for regulating everything was bound to go on and on until there will be no personal or private habits or desires which will not fall under the ban of the regulator. We need feel no sur prise at any time to find some law maker introducing bill to make kiss ing crime and prohibiting it entirely. Such a law would not be one whit more nonsensical or unjust than some that have been enacted, When the wave of "refawm' gets fairly started there is nothing to do by sensible peo- pie but let it wear itself out. This Ohio spouter Is only one of a class without which any community would be better off
