AoGGATT HoMEWARD D WENoS
 HIS WEARY WAY

On April 9th Gov. Milford B. Hog gatt was politely informed by the De- partmeut of the Interior at Washing ten. D. C.. that his room was more Gcsircablr than his company and that it would be we'll for him to journey homeward. and leave the business of national legislation to those who are elected to do it.
 Sadly Hoggatt took his departure nom the national theatcr of politics where hc has 50 long played pro uiuent part; slowly he is coming homeward. not with joy in his heart, but with the internal fires of chagri" gaawiug at his bosom.
 His departure from Washington was ordered April 5th; today he reached san Francisco. At this rate of pro sreSs our genial governor should b' with his loyal subjects about May l7 We are waiting him au&iouSly.
 Perhaps Hoggatt's own reluctance to return is accounted for by the fact that he does not anticipate a partic' rlarly warm welcome from the gam bIers and saloon element" who con yutute about 7S per cent of Alaska $ voters according to the Governors own statements.

MISSIONARY WORK

The massacre of several American missionaries in Turkey is in itself Geplorable. but it serves to remind Us of the indubitoble fact that these men and women would not be killed II they had been at work where they really belong-at home and not a Moad.
 It is an open question if foreign missionaries have not accomplished quite as much harm as good. They attempt to convert to Christianity races who have been born and bred To different religious ideals for cen luries. On paper they accomplish ruany conversions; in reality 1t is lyrdly probable that they make one real Christian out of a hundred con. yerts. In most cases the so called Christianity of Turkish. African or Chinese converts is hardly skin deep.
 The missionaries breed strife for a variance in religious belief is certain 10 lead to trouble. Again most native races are happier and just as well off with their own peculiar religion, be iJ Buddism, Conrucionism or Moham- mechanism. Religion Is matter Of evolution and it IS folly to try to snoye white mans religion into black or yellow race.
 Iuyariable massacres have marked the progress of the missionary in China, Africa. Turkey and among our own Indians. Other tangible results are few.
 On the other hand among the slums in our great cities there is a great field for social settlement and mis. slonary work. and the work will have good results If one half of the mon. ey that is being wasted on foreign Glssions were spent at home every. body concerned would be better off.

is going to adopt prohibition il
should 80 frame the law that The

it should be made a penitentiary

HARE FOR ENGLISH JURYMEN.
Hunted In Morning, Served at Evening,
According to Old Custom.

The quaint custom Of hunting the
hare in the morning, to be served up
for the jury's dinner 1T the annual
court baron, has just been revived At
Chard, says the London Standard.
The custom has been discarded for
the last 40 years, but in the old time it
excited . great deal of interest. A To-
cal pack Of hounds used to hunt the
manor lands in the morning, and the
FIRST hare killed was sent back to the
chief hotel for the dinner Of the jury
At the court baron.
1t IL said that another feature Of
the dinner was an enormous bowl Of
punch, the contents of which would
cost as much as eight pounds sterling.
The young Earl Poulett, who is the
lord OF the manor Of Chard, brought
over the Seavington pack Of hounds
this week and the mayor presented his
lordship with = gold-mounted hunting
crop as . souvenir of the occasion.
Later in the day the court baron din
nsr was held and the hunted hare was
servsd up with all the honors.
Judge Bsresford held the monthly
sitting Of the county court in the
morning and in honor Of the old GUS
tom decided to postpone judgment
summonses till the next court in order
that there might be no commitment Of
debtors to prison on that auspicous &C.
casion.

Mating a La Mode.

The small but active body of
very, very high Iy advanced think
ers which has pestered some of the
coun,ry's Legislatures to enact II
statue permitting ''trial' mar
riages may now come to parade
rest, for it has been demonstrated
that the new plan of the Ethical
Culture Society meets all the de-
sirable conditions of marriage on
trial and ut the same time keeps
within those metes and bounds
which society has set up for it's
own preservation.
Heretofore, vaguely, som 9
knowledge Of the requirements Of
the Plan Of the Ethical Culturists
has permeated into possession of
the non elect, but only in such
scant and distressful measure as
really to be worth little, even as q
clue. But the full reports of the
ethical ruptiaIs of Prof. james H.
Hamilton, who is the boss cultur-
lists, and of Miss Eta Brodski,
who has been assisting the profes
s"r in bis cult, having been print
ed in The Times, its readers now
have firm grasp on the root prin-
ciples of the Plan.
Under the Plan, it appears, all
two need do in order to he ethical
Iy married is to say they are, and
to have some authorized ethical
person admit the fact. There are
no VOWS, no pledges, no agree
ments. One doesn't have to prom
ise either to love or to cherish, or
to give support. There IS nothing
in the ceremony-only there isn't
any ceremony-about until death
do US part or honoring or obeyiug
anybody. All one has to do is
first to stand up and then to sit
down, and look pleasant. There
are no contradictural requirements
no assumption of burden. The
plan is as easy as an old shoe and
rs readily worked as biscuit dough.
We look for vast expansion of
Ethical Culture and broad out
spreading of the Society's propo-
ganda as soon rs the fresh flung
seed of knowledge of the Plan has
had chance to alight on favor

In prohibition Georgia the ac-
tivity of illegal whiskey sellers has
becnme so flagrantly abusive OF
the restraining law that the COVER
nor Of the state threatens to call
out the militia to enforce a better
observance Vt it. As the PROPOSE,
tion Of state prohibition is likely
to come before the Missouri iegis
latnre in the shape of resolution
to submit the question to the peo-
pie, the situution in Georgia should
be Of some interest 10 the people
of Missouri. 1t is time to ask,
why does not prohibition prohibit 2
The ar, rel ly Of the friends Of the
liquor traffic will have to this qnes
lion is, that law cannot be en-
forced where large proportion OF
public sentiment, is against it, even
though a majority of the people
may favor it. But there is a bet.
ter leasop why prohibition does
not prohibit. l, is the fact thai
manufacturers Of liquor are the
principal instiga'ors of The viola
tions Of liquor laws. In trying t.
accomplish prohibition our law
makers merely try to put legal
restraint upon the retailers and
consumers of liquor and leave the
sources Of supply open to all. No
social reform can he accomplished
by beginning at the wrong eud.
Legislatures may appease the pro-
hibition element by enacting anti
liquor laws, but they take care no,
to interfere directly with the capi
tai invested in the manufacture of
intoxicauts. 1t is business" moi
popular demand for liquor that
renders void prohibitory laws
The people soon accustom them
selves to radical change and are
J satisfied with the conditions, but
commercial greed knows no satiaty,
AS long as the liquor manufacture
ers are allowed to force their pro
ducts into prohibition states there
will be people there to buy it; il
they could not get it they woule
soon cease to care anything at al
about it. The way to accomplish
prohibition, then, must be by shut

A woman who has spent many sum.
mers at Haines' Falls in the Catskills
tells the following story:
"A mountain wagon full OF summer
excursionists stopped At the hotel one
morning. They wanted to see the falls
turned on In order to assure q good
dow Of water there is q sort of look
built above the falls The lock is al.
ways kept closed except when some
body makes application to see the
falls; then, ON payment of . quarter
the gates are thrown open and . flns

who had charge Of the falls went out
and opened the gates; the visitors
were delighted, paid their quarter and
drove away. About half an hour lister
another wagonload drove up to the
hotel and asked to see the falls. Again
the old man went out and opened the
gates; but owing to the previous drain
on the water supply the result was far
from satisfactory, and the spectators
were not enthusiastic. The old man
noticed the dissatisfaction Of the visit
