Honesty Of Men and Women.


Mark Twain was honored bv multi
for nothing more than for his chivalric.
almost Quixotic. honesty. But this he
disclaimed for himself in an anecdote
printed in the Forum. In his own
words:
A man can be easily persuaded to
step outside the strict moral line. but
it is not so with woman. 1t was my
wife who said: mo You shall nav
100 cents on the dollar. and | am with
YOU all the time" She kept hers word
and it is rather more due to her than
to myself
Accordingly. instead of paying 30
cents on the dollar and getting a legal
quittance. he paid 100 cents and died
an honest man.
But was it really necessary for him
to he so very honest as to take away
his own character and give it to his
wife! And he phrased it so that he
seems to have ranked masculine hon
esty below feminine. How about that
very important matter? Is everybody
agreed that women are more honest
than men" How many women would
have done what Mark Twain did. with
cut or with the inspiration of their
husha nds' Or. having done so. how
many would have uttered words like
Marks in his posthumous tribute to
petticoat morals? To put matters con-
cretelv. lot us suppose that lady tel
ephoneS to her grocer to send her
bottle of pyro. and that he sends "Old
Crow" and charges for pyro. Would
the ladies all pay the higher price? Or
would they say that the grocer had
made enough out of them in various
grocer's ways. and that the little wind :
fall would be accepted? Are men or
women honester about paying their car
fares when the conductor does not
make a personal demand? What is the
proportion of male and female shoplif-
ters? These exciting questions are
doubtless better suited to cooler wealth
err. but Mark Twain is posthumously
responsible for throwing this apple of
discord in this current week.

Compulsory Marriage.

Among proposed legislation in
France. designed to stimulate the birth
rate in that country. is provision that
makes marriage obligatory for state
employees who have reached the age of
that imposes additional military ser
vice upon bachelors over twenty nine
years of age.
France is republic. but evidently it
does not grant unrestricted liberty to
the individual. A law compelling any
citizen to marry would be unconstitu-
tlonal in this country. 1t may not be
enacted in France. but that it is pro-
posed proves that it would be valid.
Presumably, if it were enacted, all
State employees who were unwilling to
comply with it. or found themselves
una Bile to do so through very possible
rejection of their suit by those whom
they would desire as wives. would have
to resign. 1t may be presumed that
those who are disinclined to marry
would not do so merely in order to hold
their jobs.
France has long been Indifferent to
the slow growth of it's population. 1t
is only natural that suddenly aroused
determination to do something mani
tests itself in extraordinary and some
what absurd manner. Newly awak-
ened enthusiasm is always likely to
produce erratic action.
To make men marry by law is pretty
nearly AS unreasonable as the PROPOSE
ton to make them moral by means of
legislation

Watching Over Young Girls.

Some eastern cities are insisting that
plain clothes men be assigned to their
parks and public places. despite the
claims of the regular guards that there
is no necessity. These ununiformed
officers are wanted to protect young
girls from insult. from their own folly
or from those who frequent shady ave-
nues and paths in search of prey Of
tenders can regulate their conduct
when a uniformed officer appears. but
they never feel sure that the citizen
strollng near is not policeman in
citizens clothing.
The menace to girlhood in these at
tractive and innocent looking parks is
seldom credited with the weight which
is its due Girls in their teens without
escort or parents or elders often need
protection against their own folly.
Their parents also should be protected,
for many times these parents or guar
dams are unaware that their children
have gone to the park or other resort.

The Penalty of Public Trust.

OF course everybody expected Mr..

Col Roosevelt has announced in his

take an active part in the New York
campaign This he made clear,
Wednesday. after a conference with
Gov. Hughes. Mr. Roosevelt said:

man who is most acceptable to the
rank and file Of the Republican party
and the independent voters. | intend

Mr.. Roosevelt declined to mention
his choice for governor. but said he
had had a very interesting talk with
the governor, and it is generally be-
lieved in New York that he will take

for governor. In this relation
quite naturally the first man to come
to mind is Collector Loeb. His ability

OF New York he has distinguished
himself as the most fearless and sue
cessful official who has ever held that
position. He has attacked the high
places and the hard climbs, and has
won out for himself and for the gov
ernment There is no shadow of
doubt that both Roosevelt and
Hughes would hold up both hands for
the nomination of Loeb. but there is
a big trig in the way-a depora BILE
