He alleges that she has refused to buy
a new dress for two years. He states
that he had frequently urged her to
dress more fashonabiy and in keeping
with the seasons styles, but that his

ALEXANDRIA, VA.
SATURDAY EVENING, NOV. II

The total campaign expenses OF
Judge Baldwin, the successful candi-
date for the goyernorship of Connect
cut we're just $4,000 This is the
smallest sum for which the governor
ship was ever obtained in the memory
of the present generation. Although
his personal means ere large, and al
though the chairman Of the democratic
state central committee besousht him
for moro funds, Judge Baldwin de-
clared that it was matter Of principle
with him not TO contribute more than
one years salary. which Is $1,000.
During the campaign the governor
elect repeatedly called upon his repub-
lean opponent, Charles a. Goodwin,
10 make known the amount OF his
contributions, but the latter main
tanned silence. Popular report IS that
the defeated man spent over SoO, 600
1t has been charged in open letters by
reformers that the expenses OF his
nomination were oyer $4,000, and
that large part Of this was donated by
his cousin, J. Pierpont Morgan. This
but shows that the republicans rely al
most wholly upon carrying elections
by the use OF money, but this year
even this potential! means failed them.

EVERY now and then some OF the
LIMOGES Of this country talk OF annex
ing" Canada to the United states and
declare that annexation" is popular
among the people Of Canada. As an
offset to this idea the jingocs should
read the following from the Charlotte
town, Prince Edward Island, DAILY
Guardian;
1t is high time that the statesmen
of Canada gave serious consideration to
the possibility, to use no stronger term
OF admitting the adjoining state OF
Maine into the Dominion. A glance
at the map is sufficient to show that the
sta'e OF Maine belongs, geographically,
to Canada, rather than to the United
States. Being now n foreign country,
it is to some extent also an obstacle TO
the right development of our great
transportation systems. while at the
same time the state Is shut out from
the great and obvious advantages which
must result from the union with Can
ada, already far too long delayed We
have, Of course, no desire to sedrce our
Maine cousins from their present ale
glance to Uncle Sam and the Stars and
Stripes. Any movement in the direc-
ton o. union with Canada must come
from them, aud with Uncle Sam S con-
sent.

TUBERCULOSIS IN THE PRISON
Per Cent. Of Sufferers Is Enormous
and There Seems but One
Remedy.

From several Investigations that
have been made by the National AS
ISOLATION for the Study and Proven
ton of tuberculosis, 1t is estimated
that on an average about fifteen per
cent. of the prison population Of the
country Is afflicted with tuberculosis.
On this basis, out of the 10000 prison
ers housed in the penal institutions
Of the United States at any given
time, not less than 10000 are infected
with this disease. If the Philippine
islands and other insular possessions
were taken into consideration the
number would be much larger. Some
of the prisons of Pennsylvania, Kan
sas and Ohio show such shocking con-
ditions with reference to tuberculosis
that many wardens admit that these
places of detention are death traps.
Similar conditions could be found in
almost every state. and in the major
ity of cases the only sure remedy is
the destruction of the old buildings
and the erection of new ones.
