A Statue for TiIden.

Writing to the New York World in
advocacy of the Sulzer bill to erect a
statue to the memory of Samuel J.
Tilden in Washington, Hon. John Bige-
low says: What Tilden did for the
city of New York in crushing the
Tweed ring, what he did for the state
in crushing the canal ring, and the
declaration of the house of representa-
tives in II that he had been the choice
of the people of the United States for
president, seems to entitle him to the
proposed evidence of national consid-
Grafton"
With or without a statue in Wash
ington, Tilden's place in American his
tory is secure; yet it is peculiarly fit
ting that there should be some kind of
a public memorial in the national cap
ital to the man whom Representative
Sulzer described In his argument be-
fore the house committee as the great
American reformer."
Tilden never held a federal Office.
He was never a representative or a
senator or a cabinet minister; yet it
may be doubted If any other man since
Lincoln exerted so great an influence
upon national affairs.
He was, indeed, 'the great American
reformer." His successful fight against
the Tweed ring was the beginning of
the great movement to throw off the
shackles of political corruption which
the civil war riveted upon the country.
His successful fight against the canal
ring gave a new impetus to political
reform in nearly every northern state.
1t was under his leadership that the
democratic party was again politically
rehabilitated, and the political reha-

Rock River improvements.

Letters are being sent out by Ma
jor Charles Keller of the engineers
Office to towns that will be benefited
by the proposed improvement of
Rock river from Sterling to James
vile, Wis. The letter, which is self
explanatory, reads:
Little interest seems to have been
taken in the suggested improvement
of Rock river to seven feet between
Sterling and GAINESVILLE. If you are
interested in the matter is it sug-
gested that any information or views
you or other prominent citizens have,
are desired at once, touching the
following inquiries:
l. What, is the actual present de-
mand for the Improvement?
2. What benefits do you think
might be expected to follow the i'm
provement?
3. What specific reasons can be
4. What industries would be bene-
fitted by the improvement?

freight rates and if so what commod-

Judson Harmon and the Presidency.

Judson Harmon and the Presidency.
The candidacy of Governor Judson
Harmon of Ohio for the democratic
presidential nomination in 49, was
formally launched in the Buckeye state
convention yesterday, in connection
With the denomination of Judge Har-
mon for the gubernatorial chair he has
graced with so much distinction.
Judge Harmon is the man of the hour
in the light of present events to lead
the democratic hosts two years hence.
An old line democrat, who has always
been in line, meriting and command
ing the support of every element of the
party, he would prove an ideal candi-
date. A man of exceptional power
and ability, with the confidence of the
conservative wing. he should be like
wise strong with the Bryan following,
owing to his unwavering loyalty to Mr..
Bryan in each of the campaigns in
which the Nebraskan has been the
party's gallant standard bearer.
With Harmon and harmony as the
battle cry in 1912, the democrats would
sweep the country.

HELP BIRTH RATE
Object of Series of Measures
Introduced in the French
Parliament.
PUT BACHELORS IN ARMY
Compel State Employees to Wed, Stop
Equal Division of Estates and
Pension Heads Families.

Paris, June PA series of meas
ures to stimulate the birth rate IL
France was introduced in parliament
yesterday.
The means by which race suicide is
to be avoided include:
The imposition of additional mil
itary service upon bachelors over
30 years of age.
Obligatory marriage of state en-
ployes who have reached the age
of % years.
supplementary salaries and pen
sion allowances for those with
more than three children.
Repeal of the law requiring the
equal distribution of estates among
the children.
Dislike to Divide Wealth.
The dislike of Frenchmen to divide
their property is a frequent cause oi
restricted families, according to those
who have made a study of the subject
The proposed legislation follows the
recent publication of vital statistics
which showed that the births in the re
public during 1909 were 10000
against 1872 900 in the preceding year
and that the population has been in
creased by only 100000 since 1851.
The measures were prepared by Pro
fessor Lannelogue, senator and mem
Der of the Institute of France.
If the men will not serve their coun
try by rearing children, they must
serve it by army work." he declared
explaining the first feature of the meas
uTe.
state employees should set an ex
ample TO others and have big families
Government salaries should be made
adequate for many children.
The repeal of the distribution law
would remove a parents fear that the
family fortune will be dissipated be
tween many children and would accus
tom children TO rely on themselves in
stead of waiting for their patrimony.'
