Betting on Elections.

A bill to prohibit betting on elections
has passed the Georgia house Of repre-
sentatives. and probably will pass the
senate and become a law Of the State
before the present legislature adjourns.
The author OF this refor1natory meas
ere, Hon. Barry Wright. is to be con-
graduated. His proposal is eminentiy
righteous and in line with common sense.
1t ought to be against the law everywhere
to bet on elections. and we hope that
Georgia's prohibitive example win be fol-
lowed by the nation generally.
There is no legitimate argument in a
bet It's appeal is entirely irrational.
The man who wagers his money on a
candidate or a measure becomes at once
prejudiced partisan Of that man or
measure. He pleads with other men to
vote his way, not because II Is the right
way or the logical way. but because 1t
is the way his money Is placed. 1t fire.
quently happens that he is willing enough
to go in for corrupting the ballot. If
only he may win by some hook or crook.
In closely contested and smaller and
less important elections the influence Of
the man who bets often may be clearly
and Enthusiastically traced. In the great
majority OF cases the man with hts coin
on the result Of an election concerns
himself not at all with the principles in
volved. His activity is entirely sinister
and sordid In motive.
Betting on anything is silly business, at
best. Betting on elections is worse than
silly. because it units a man for that
calm and carefully considered exercise
OF his franchise that is so essential to
good government The sacrifice is more
than any citizen should be permitted TO
make. II It can be avoided. The legisla-
ture OF Georgia appears to think it may be
avoided-at least, in very great measure.
And so do we. At all events. the expert
ment is well worth trying.

TO-DAY IN HISTORY.
Birth of Daniel Cornell, the Great Irish Liberator

To-day IS the anniversary Of the birth IN
1T75. Of Daniel o'Connell, whom Ireland
loves to refer to as the great liberator."
The town OF his birth has the odd
name OF Cahirciveen. II is locat-
cd in County Kerry, about forty
FIVE miles from Killarney. His an
cestors had been chiefs in the old days,
and, like those Of most of the Irish chiefs,
their lands had been conhscated in the
wars.
They were OF sturdy stock. however,
and made the best OF having 10 toll on
the lands once their own, where they
dwelt as tenants and earned only a
meager living. Several members OF the
family, however. went 70 France and
served brilliantly IN her wars ia the
eighteenth century.
From his earliest youth young Daniel
was taught to appreciate the high estate
OF his ancestors and to look upon Eng
land as the oppressor Of his beloved coun-
try and the enemy OF the faith OF his
fathers. He went 10 the first school IN
Cork where Catholic teachers were al
lowed TO instruct the Irish youth; and ne
finished his education at the Seminary OF
st. Omar, in France. and at the College
OF Douay, also OF that country.
The ST. Omar educational institution
was conducted particularly for English
and Irish Roman Catholics. and had sue
ceeded a jesuit college. founded by
Father Parsons, for young Englishmen.
The college of Douya was founded by Car
dinal Allen, an Englishman, for the edu-
cation OF priests for that country.
II was under the influence OF the care
ful teaching In these institutions Of learn
ing that young O'Connell began to study
deeply into political questions Of the day.
He learned 10 dread anarchy and all the
dangers that arise from hasty and an
popular judgments. He saw much OF the
horror OF the French Revolution. and his
mind became imbued with the impOr-
lance Of strict and honest laws that
should protect life and property.
O'ConnelI adopted the profession OF the
law and was admitted 10 the Irish bar
In 1885 His first brilliant successes were
ascribed to the fact that ne so thor
oughly understood the characteristics OF
his countrymen. lie could lead and bend
them in any way through HIS examina-
ton OF witnesses. But he soon demon
strated his remarkable knowledge OF con-
stitutional and criminal law. and his elo-
quence was such that he is ranked among
the foremost OF the brilliant leaders OF
the Irish bar
His heart was absorbed IN the cues
tons OF justice for his people. and the
elevation Of his country to her rightful

It's Worth a Dollar and Litigation
So Far Has Cost $3.50.
From the Kansas City Times
An old log chain worth a dollar Is prov
ing an expensive piece OF property for
John r. Lewis, a sidewalk contractor OF
Independence. and Alfred CTenshaw, a
laoorer Of that city. Both men are claim
ing tn chain. First they had a flight over
the possession OF II and Lewis was the
better fighter. Then Crenshaw brought a
Teplevin suit in the court OF Justice W. 5.
Loar. Witnesses disagreed as 10 the
ownership OF the chain. Each man said
he had used the chain about three years
Lewis said he had used 4 to drag mortar
boxes and other heavy articles.
The exact manner in which il had been
adjusted around a dolbletree had been
explained to the judge. He sent out and
got a doubletree and fastening the chain
around II, found that certain links which
had been worn smooth came on the under
side OF the double tree. This appeared
conclusive evidence. so he decided in
favor OF Lewis
Crenshaw refused 20 let that chain go
so easily. He appealed yesterday 20 the
Circuit Court. The cost OF the suit in the
justice court was $3.50 for Crenshaw and
$3.50 for Lewis. Docketing the case in the
Circuit Court ran the total costs. so far.
Up to $3.50 TO say nothing OF attorneys

DURING CIVIL WAR.

Dr. Emerson D. Fife has written an
interesting volume on Social and IN
dustrial Conditions IN the North During
the Civil War"
That the North during the civil war

chapter end its steady growth is shown.
Although the crops Of 1881 says DR..

history OF the country Up 70 that time.
the production OF wheat in this year was
surpassed in every year or the var. In
this record year 1Ss.Ooo,oOO bushels OF
wheat were produced by the loyal States:
In 1852 100000 bushels; the leading ag-

their output" Three things saved the
hsrvests; the Increased use Of labor

in the fields. and the continued influx
OF new population. During this time
there was a shortage Of wheat in Europe
and England. and while Northern wheat

The Legal Tip.

This business Of parentalism in govern
ment seems 20 be going little too far.
now that they have succeeded in making
tipping legal The precedent set by the
Comptroller Of the Treasury, that auto
crat In money matters, Is likely 10 be
far-reaching. not 10 say epoch-making.
It is we'll known how carefully the Comp
troller scrutinizes every bill that comes
before him to be o. KID, and when an
Alaskan official turned in his expense ac-
count it was found that he had included
an item for tips. 1t was not mueh-only
rs eents-but It was enough to establish
a precedent. for the Comptroller passed IL
Thus has the thin part Of the wedge en-
tered. The end no man may see. Now
that Uncle Sam IS committed to the
tipping evil. just think what vast sums
may be disbursed by the thousands Of
officials who have expense accounts and
who meet the tipping claimants on their
travels.
Up to the present the tip has retained
something. at least OF the nature of
gratuity. In giving that extra quarter or
half dollar TO the waiter, you could-if
you chose to ignore the fact that you
were brow-bsaten into it by custom-feeI,
or at least simulate, a fine glow Of gen.
erous satisfaction. You could feel that
you had been moved by the thought of
the poor wife and eleven starving children
that the waiter had at home. II on a
Pullman you tipped the porter after an
uncomfortable night in one OF those ex-
pensive uppers. you knew that you were
heaping Goals OF fire on the devoted head
Of the Pullman Company and were feeling
the porter because you knew that the pIu-
tocratic company did not pay him sufi-
cient wage.
But all these satisfactions over tipping
are 10 be taken from US now The tip is
not a generous dole; 1t is a legal addition
TO, our other expenses, sanctioned by the
government, approved by the Comptroller.
There was some hope for US before.
If the Comptroller had refused TO allow
tnat ltem' government officials everywhere
would have been justified in declining TO
give tips, and some Of us-we hate TO do
it. but are afraid not tonight have taken
refuge in the governmental refusal. Some
OF US, indeed, might even have passed
ourselves of as government officials so
as to avoid tipping. But that refuge has
gone forever. and by a simple 90 K"
the Comptroller. who should also be the
conservator, has added greatly to the
higher cost of living No longer is 10

only hope that from the Treasury Depart
ment may come brochure on the subject
advising US just what, under various and
varying circumstances. may be considered
the proper amount to give.

Population to Order.

Undoubtedly France has reason to be
alarmed over the marked decline in her
birth rate and to argue 10 herself that a
preponderance Of deaths over births
points to a decadence that must mean.
eventually. the death Of the nation. But
there will be considerable doubt whether
our sister republic will meet with the
success she hopes for in trying TO in
crease the birth rate by act of Parlia-
ment. In the first place. one doubts
whether it can be done at all; in the
second place II it can be done. would It
be desirable?
Prominent among the measures dis
oussed in the French Senate recently was
one imposing additional military service
on bachelors over twenty-five years Of
age, requiring all public employees over
twenty-five TO be married men. and pro-
viding additional wages for such Of them
as have more than three children.
OF course. it is not pretended that France
needs the additional military service
from bachelors, nor thinks that married
employees are better servants than bach.
elors. These are simply penalties at
tached to bachelordom and inducements
for young men TO get married early and
to pray for large families.
1t would be curious to note-in an
academic way-what would be the effect
Of such statutory provisions. If. by such
inducements, France could bring its
birth rate up to something nearer the
normal standard, would its citizens OF
the coming generation be able TO hold
their own in the battle OF life? Marriages
contracted just for reasons Of selfish gain
would hardly be likely to turn out so
happily as to be an advantage to the
state. Under our present social system,

Army and Navy Physical Tests.

The time has again arrived for a revi-
sion OF the methods OF conducting physi-
cal tests Of certain officers Of the army
and navy. A general order pertaining
to army officers has been issued from the
War Department prescribing the re-
quirements for the coming year. A
similar order is in course OF preparation
In the Navy Department for the guild
ance OF the personnel OF the navy and
Marine Corps.
The army physical test has been some
what modified. and there Is said to be in
contemplation a greater modification OF
the requirements governing the naval
and Marine Corps test
This lessening of the severity Of the
demand upon officers is wise and Just
The physical test, as a demonstration Of
fitness for military duty. has caused de-
moralization Of the personnel, in that
# has created wide discomfort and
aroused much apprehension. It has had
a psychological effect which must have
eKerted its influence upon the efficiency
Of the personnel, especially as there are
not wanting examples OF the premature
retirement OF officers whose "dlsuuallfca-
ton" was based on an excessive and
extraordinary standard, which overlooked
experience and other characteristics
that should have counted for something
against the inability 20 ride or walk a
stipulated distance within designated
periods.
SO long as the physical test Is protect

OF elimination-for the sake Of promo

be TO junior officers. impatient over pres
ent delays-there is nothing TO be offered
in objection 10 the system; but when II

posed 70 prevent any such unfair and
unnecessary elimination. Those officials
have pointed out the dangers Of taking

ercise.

officers can be kept in good physical

hard and fast rules by which officers
shall abide in maintaining that desirable
state OF physical readiness.

it should be considerate OF advancing age
and avoid requirements which make no
