space which when utilized for the erec-
ton of further memorials will doubtless
be thrown open to the public. The cost
of these alterations, it is understood. will
be borne by the dean and chapter, who

Divorces a la Chicago.
1t has been the custom for many years
here to jeer at the United States as the
country of quick divorces, but a recent
report of the divorce court in London
shows a record hard to beat. The court
which is now in session, with two judges
sitting, has seen no diminution in the
spirit of hustle which is characteristic Of
the opening week each term. Sir John
Bigham and Mr.. Justice Bargrave Deane,
between them, tackled a list of forty
cases during three days of the week, and
in general way DEGREES have been
granted at the rate of two every quarter
of an hour of the time the courts have
been sitting AS many as 120 suits have
been listed, and well over the hundred
have been brought, to an issue. These
have all been undefended cases, which.
.'once in court as a lady respondent
wrote i'm a letter. which was read during
the week, ARE all over In ten minutes.

Glass of Beer a Bride.

The gist Of the offense is the corrupt in
ducement. which may be given at any
time before an election. although the ele-
ment of time is, of course. very material
in determining whether the act was done
to influence votes. In one case in 1892

stituted an offense The amount of brib-
ery or extent of treating is quite imma-
terial, for single glass of beer given to
one of his constituents is sufficient to I'M
seat even prime minister or chancei-
lor of eXchequer.
The WAYS in which bribery may be
committed are many IT may be done by
the gift or promise of money or of en-
ployment, payment for loss OF time or
travelling expenses, or treating, or by
innumera BILE changes rung on these
themes. 1t can also be committed under
the more subtle guise of charitable and
other local subscriptions. A candidate is
always at the mercy of al the secretaries
of institutions in his constituency, and
the law kindly allows him to be bled to
any reasonable amount

Must Keep Guarded Tongues.

The old-time candidate had quite an
army of banner bearers, bandsmen and
paid canvassers, and he could hire any
number of vehicles to take the electors to
the polls. Now the number of persons
employed at election is strictly laid
down by statute, and every farthing ex-
pended by an agent has to be accounted
for 1t is also illegal for any one else but
the candidate or his agent to pay money
for the purposes of advancing an cleo
ton. Such payment does not necessarily
invalidate but it may lose q uSeI III num-
Der of votes.
Indiscreet supporters have frequently
caused trouble by circulating false or eX-
aggerated statements, such saying that
a candidate in county constituency was
in the habit of shooting foxes. or that a
lifelong teetotaler was secret drinker.
1t is lso an offenSe to even hint that
candidate had skeleton in his cupboard
or a shady past, even if the assertion be
true. In many other ways illegai1tieS
may be committed, such as by issuing
bills or notices without the name and
address of the printer, for which there is
ia maximum penalty of $500; providing
banners. hat cards. rosettes or cockades,
but none of these offenSes is sufficient
of itself to void an election. On
the whole the path to parliament Is be-
slowed with thorns, and every member
will doubt breathe more freely when
the twenty-one days after his return
have passed. during which petition may
be presented.
Legally a candidate in a borough of
. 500 electors may spend ESQ in election
expenses and not a penny more. In a
county of the same number of electors
he may spend f710. If his borough has
1893 electors his expenses may rise to
f47O or, if county. to ESQ. Nine
thousand nine hundred and ninety-nfne
electors In d borough entitle the candi-
date to spend ESQ, and in county

Few Want Small Farms.

Regarding Mr.. Balfour's recent bid for
the agricultural workers vote by the lib
eral promise of small properties instead
of small holdings. l hear that from the
statistics which will shortly be published
by the board of agriculture it is clearly
shown that there is no very active de-
sire in this country to become owners of
small farms. During the last twelve
months the number of acres which have
been obtained by the county councils for
the purpose of small holdings under the
1903 act is 81 .462, which will be sufficient
to supply about 5000 applicants with a
small holding. most of whom require "a
homestead to be erected in addition. But
the proportion of persons who desire to
purchase a small farm is intinitesimal.
The report will show that altogether
there are something like 1900 or 14,OOl
persons in this country who have been
found suitable for occupation of a small
holding, and proves that the act has been
successful. 1t has increased the number
of acres available for small holdings by
about eighty times the amount which was
secured for that purpose under the act OF
the late Lord Salisbury's government, al
though that act had been in existence flf-
teen years before the passage of the pres
ent measure in 1908. Nearly the whole OF
the acres mentioned will be in the posses
sion of the county councils and ready for
allotment to the applicants by next Sep
ternher

BATH IN ADVANCE.

Washington, Nov. 12.-The his
toric names that have been associ
ated with the beef industry in Chi
cago for couple of generations will
be called out in a. criminal court in
the Windy City some day next Jan.
uary. The month but not the day
has been filed. Then will be placed
under way a giant struggle in which
the best resources of the government
will be used to settle the question
whether there is beef packers
trust and. If so, whether any of the
multi-millionaires who control it can
be made acquainted with prison
work and other routine.
With unlimited cash at hand the
barons will have the brightest lights
in the law business in court to con-
vince the solemn judge and frown-
ing jury that there is no trust, or if
there is one, that the eminent de-
PENDANTS have done nothing that
would Justify their Punishment to
Leavenworth.
A contest over technicalties will
mark the opening OF the battle and
long and weary days may pass before
the actual trial of the barons is be-
gun. Motions to quash and demur-
rers to indictments will be offered
and are likely t. be subjects of long
consideration.
Indictments were returned against
the packers last summer after an in
vestigation conducted by Assistant
Attorney General Kenyon, of Wash
lngton and United States District At

men in the Bureau Of Investigation
of the Department of Justice probed

interest will center in the case for

district will be the unit for expendi-
lures, subject, however, to certain re-
strictions prescribed by the State.
We see the beginnings of this prin-
ciple in the eighty-five per cent re-
quirement for instruction and also
in that portion of the county high
school fund law which requires the
proceeds to be used for instruction
only. The state is most vitally con-
cerned in the instruction given and
the health conditions provided.
Therefore, the probabilities are that
the State will from time to time,
more and more, indicate the mini
mum Institutional and health condi-
tions and also the minimum amount
that must be used for these purposes.
Important Things to be Secured.
"The following arg a few of the
most important things that should
engage our attention:
Il. A reduction of the number
of school districts.
"2. The consolidation of school
districts so that there may be CEN
trail high schools at convenient and
suitable places in every county in
Oregon; the transportation of all
children who reside too far from
such central high school to attend
conveniently.
"3. The improvement of school
houses and grounds so that they may
be modern. sanitary, comfortable, at
tractive, usable and homelike, the
social and educational center of the
communities.
"A. A practical provision for ex-
pert medical inspection of school
to the end that their physi-
cal defects may be discovered and
treated, and their physical welfare be
promoted.
"5. The establishment and main
tenance of fund for the support of
teachers who have become incapaci-
ated by reason of long service in the
school room.
&c. A method of certification
hat will ensure a high standard of
and skill in teaching and
professionalism.
az. A minimum salary for teach
RS. The best talent should be en-
outraged by better remuneration to
