COMMISSION IDEA SPREADS.

Mount Vernon. one of New York s largest suburbs, has adopted the "Des Moines plan" of city government, which is a modified form of the orig. inal Galveston commission now es- tableshed in Houston. Dallas and Fort Worth. The Mount Vernon commits sion will have only three commission CTS to be chosen for five years. sub of fact, it is more nearly democratic in the abstract sense than any other form of representative government. The commissioners are all elected by the whole people of the city, whereas under the aldermanic and ward plan the ruling body is composed of a group of men selected by only parts of the electorate. A ward alderman, strictly speaking. represents only a neighborhood: a commissioner repre- sents the entire community. Democ- racy means the rule of the people acting as a whole by majority ex- pression.
 Another popular objection which the commission idea must combat is the merging of the three departments of government, to wit. the legislative. the executive and the judiciary. People do not realize, until they stop to think about it. that city govern ment is almost entirely administra- tive. Its legislation and it's judi ciary cover only petty matters All ed interests and very little else. ai- wise rejection. with all its risks and dangers? Or will they counsel dis cretion and patience in the hope of victory a year later on the issue of tariff reform uncomplicated by the Issue of the lords veto? The answer will be given before the end of the month.

THE LORDS AND THE BUDGET

There IS significance in the vote on the Lloyd-George budget in the house of commons, although the result itself is not at all unexpected. There are revolutionary principles in the bud get, the taxation of the ''unearned in- crement" of land being the most strik- ing of them, yet no one of the moder- ate or conservative liberals voted against it. Two liberal members ab- stained from voting ,as did all the Irish nationalists, and the majority for the radical finance bill was larg- CT than the ministry had hoped it would be. The full strength of the party thus arrays itself in support of the measure that has for months been denounced as sociaIistic and uncoG. stitutional.
 As for the Irish, they made it per fectly and uncomfortably plain to the tories that they will throw their full . weight on the side of the commons in the event of the rejection or at tempted emasculation of the budget by the privileged and unrepresenta- tive upper house. The only reason they had for abstaining was that the additional tax on liquor meant increas- ed burdens on Irish industry. They had no sympathy with the liquor trade as such, nor with the opposition to temperance. Facing conditions as they are, the Irish members could not vote for increased taxation on any industry that remained to their is land. But the land taxes, the yalUa ton scheme, the surtax on large in comes-tbe things, in short, which the lords particularly dislike-haye the support of the Irish members.
 And now the budget is at last be fore the lords. What they will dC is even now uncertain. Bermondsey'. by-election stiffened the backs O those who advise rejection or amend nnent, but Bermoadsey once misle; the tories, and they cannot trust it Besides, extraordinary efforts in on, one constituency may locally yield re sc.ts which are impossible in a gen c--l election.

RELATION OF BODY AND MIND
Assertion Made That No Healthy Per
 son Is Wholly Bad.

The close relation of body and minc h the matter of physical health. oi which so much is said by various re ligfous and semi-religious organiza tions and by class of professional ~healers." is considered from fresh point of view by an English clergy. man. His argument is that no p@- son who Is healthy can be wholly bad The cleryman further expressed ths conviction that there Is a close con nection between health and morals and that the man who has reached middle age in 8 sound bodily condition thereby proves that he has led a de cent life. In support of his position be advanced the assertion that g large proportion of the convicts ip English prison are physical degener. ates. From this it would seem that he does not confine his designation q badness" to the vices involved in in temperance and other forms of sensual dissipation, but. since conyicts are guilty of many things apart from these, as theft. burglary, forgery and the like, holds that they are led to the perpetration of even this class c, crimes by defective bodily state.

THE OLD CLEBNOHTb BELL-LAUNCHiHG
 THE CLEEHoNT IT,
 beautiful silver fligree glass vase filled with water from the well on the Liy- ingston estate at Clermont-on-the-H Hud- son. where Fulton's steamboat made the first stop of her IAaiden trip. As the vase was shattered Mrs. Sutcliffe said:
 'I name thee ClermOut and again auspiciousiy proclaim to the American people the sentiments of Robert Fulton as expressed in an essay to the friends of maukind: Industry will give abun- daEec to q virtuous world and call mankind to one unbounded feast of harmony and friendship. The liberty of the seas will be the happiness of the worlds"
 Tbcn all the small craft in the har- bar blew their whistles. and six carrier pigeons. which were concealed in a basket in the prov. were liberated. The vessel slid slowly. and after the crane had ceased helping # along it almost stuck Many of the men in the crowd broke through the ropes Rt this point and went to the aid of p.uns uoJeu 11

 wide, feet deep and draws 8 feet of water. Her sides are almost straight up and down, and both ends are wedge shaped. She will be equipped with q replica of the old engine and make her f..fr, 4E,, Ia5- her own steam.
 The difficulty of determining the ex- act dimensions and equipment of the Clermont was great, and it was only through the efforts = the late Rear Admiral Joseph B. Coghlan, naval con structor; William J. Baxter, U. s. N; Captain Jacob w Miller. MT. Eben Olcot and Messrs. J. ". Willard and Frank E. Kirby, naval architects, that it was possible for lhe commission to build an ezactjreplica of the Clermont According to the plans of the coamis- sion, the ClermOut will be escorted by the Half Moon. Henry HudsOn's ship, and a fleet of war vessels of many hations when the naval parade starts on Friday, Oct. 1, on the commence rative trip from New York city to AL bany.
 One of the ways of making the Hud- son-Fulton celebration productive Of greater patriotism and interest in the history of the country is to give the children and youth of the schools of New York city and state leading part in it. It is expected that about a million children in the Greater New York will participate in some way in the pageants. tableaux and festivals of the celebration. Some of tho sub jccts for tableaux will incluce the progress Of civilization in the past scr years in New York state and vicinity. The principal ceremonies in which
 ;iiglren will participate will be held Sept. 2S aud Oct. 2.

 The recent launching of the Clermont iu the yards of the Staten Island slip building company gave q foretaste oi the ceremonies of the real celebration for it was an occasion replete with his toric interest and picturesque in lis setting. The original Clermont set forth on her first trip up the Hudson to Albany on that eventful n1oraing of ..ug. IT. 1897. amid the jeers of some in the small crowd that witnessed hcT departure.

Ia the northern part of India sheep are put to a use unthought of tn EU- ropean or American countries. They are made to gerve as beasts of bur den, because they are more sure-foot- ed than larger beasts, and the noun. tain paths along the foothills of the Himalayas are steep and difficult. The load for each sheep Is from 16 Co 20 pounds. The sheep are driven from the village to village, with the wool still growing, and in each town the farmer shears as much wool as he can sell there and loads the sheep with the grain which he receives in ex- change.
