THE CHARITY BILLS.

The politically wise have already
dubbed the Assembly OF 1910. 1t is to
90 down in history as the "Tlnancial
Assembly, Its many bills on the reve-
nuo and on the conduct OF moneycd
institutions justify this name, and
give the Assembly it's chief claim to
fame. The dollar mark is the symbol
of craftsmanship just now, and sug-
gestcd increases of the revenue are
the talisman of polit,cal sagacity.
While every one will approve legis-
iators who devote more thought to
saving the States money than to
spending it. they will not wish to see
the Assembly cut off from other
things, as the suggested name would
indicate. Many important measures
are before the Assembly not relating
10 finance, and many wise suggestions
have been offered that will not add
dollar to the Auditors credit balance.
These. VIC believe. will nevertheless re-
ceive the attention of the Assembly
and will be considered for their full
value.
Few of these are more important,
we take it. than those which relate to
tho conduct OF the State charities.
Aside from the bills which relate to
the State hospitals and asylums and
to the State Board of Health, several
hills have been offered on other chart
ties-all of them safe, sound and
,udicious. The bill. for example, which
provides for the States aid In sup
porting the Home for Maynard Girls
should unhesitatingly be approved. Ii
Is only fair that the State should do
as much for these girls as 1t does Tor
the incorriEible boys OF the state. Ii
the latter are trained and frequently
reformed for life. so should the girls

Cox's bill. which would place all crimi

rather than in prisons, may fix too
high an age limit, but it is sound III
principle.
The people are willing that the
appropriations which these bills carry
should be gagged and fixed by the
Assembly, whose members best know
what the State can do. But the people.
we believe are anxious to see Wiz

charity. to reduce the mass of snf-
fering and TO add 10 the happiness OF
those unfortunates who cannot provide
for themselves.
