The City Club Debate.

The discussion of statehood and the
constitution before the Civic club to-
morrow night will certainly be inter
esting, though academic. The men
selected for the discussion are well
equipped for the task, consisting, on
one side. of able opponents of the
constitution and, on the other, of able
advocates. whose advocacy is warmed
by the circumstance that they con-
tributed to it's construction.
But. we believe, it is generally
agreed that the period for a profitable
consideration of the merit, or want Of
merit. of the constitution is past. How
ever. after all. the discussion of this
phase will not be without advantage
that some gentlemen of the City club.
or guests of the club. who may hear
the arguments tomorrow night, will
some time participate in the writing of
constitution for Arizona, and their
equipment for the task will be all the
better for what they may hear. Real
ly. there is nothing wasted in this
world.
As to the discussion of the other phase
what we may call the utility of the
constitution. whereby we mean the
probability whether we will ever have
a chance to use il, that will. of
course, be interesting. but the time
within which profit could possibly
follow is rushing rapidly into the
past. with nobody clutching at its
forelock to stop it,

Court of Domestic Relations.

There is tribunal in Chicago called
where family feuds are supposed tC
be adjudicated. In another depart
ment of the Chicago judiciary there is
one Judge Hopkins. doubtless an able
man in his place. who. however, de-
sires a change. He aspires to the
presidency of the Court of Domestic
Relations He urges the peculiar
qualification that he is a bachelor and
therefore would be an impartial and
disinterested arbitrator in family
squabbles.
He would probably be a disinter-
ested judge. His want of interest
would be such as that which is desir-
able in juries, a disinterestedness ow-
ing to a want of familiarity with the
circumstances surrounding the case to
norance and not infrequently of stu
pidity-a gUarantor of ignorance not
only as to the impending litigation.
but of all sublunary matters.
On the same theory that Judge Hop
kins would preside properly over the
Court of Domestic Relations. an Apache
the most complex water litigation. His
mind would be unbiased by any IA
miliarity with the subject
bachelor is the last man who
should sit over such court. Far bet
ter qualified is he who has acquired
dexterity at evading rolling pins and
flatirons and similar projectiles: to
whom skill has come by practice in
evsding the whirling broomstick and
the common or domestic hoe handle;
who has himself gained a certain accu-
racy of aim with reciprocating brick
bats
Such a judge would not necessarily
feel a bias in any case that might
be brought before him. but he would
more certainly get at the underlying
facts of a household uprising than
bachelor judge. who would have moth
ing before him but the allegations and
the replications.
OF course there might be witnesses;
there probably would be, but usually
the witnesses of a domestic disturb
ance are not able to give testimony
except as to the secondary or tertiary
stage The trouble usually begins
in privacy. and it is in this primary
stage that one or the other parties
is at fault
What could a bachelor judge Of the
Court of Domestic Relations divine
of the proceedings in this period of
unseen incubation of the quarrel?
The married judge would know all
about IT, Who would have a black
smith fix a watch?

Current Comment
UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE.
The Risk No More Speculative Than in
Any Other Form.

Insurance is based upon statistics
that determine the frequency with
which risk would be likely to avail
itself of the guarantee. No adequate
statistics concerning unemployment
nor long established systems for pre-
miums and indemnties, exist IL has
been affirmed that the need for insur-
ance might depend upon the insured
person himself. and that the employ
workman could easily cause himself to
be dismissed. so that he could receive
money without work The objection has
also been made that in other forms of
insurance there can be restoration of
the damage sustained. and that the
remedy for unemployment ought to be
work offered. instead of payments for
not working. and that the question
would still be open as to whether the
insured should accept work that might
be distasteful to him. These objections
are considered today as having been
disposed of by reflections along this
line:
Modern statistics of unemployment
are imperfect. but life. fire. transport
and casualty assurances were begun
without satisfies and created them only
in the course of time Even the i'm
perfect statistics of unemployed today
are more adequate as a basis from
which to work, Herr Dostor Jastrow
says. than the statistics were at the
time of organizing most If the branches
of existing insurance. The objection
that the beginning of the benefits of
insurance depends upon the VIII of the
insured person himself has been
answered by pointing out that this APP
plies likewise to liability insurance,
where bad faith in the person insured
is possible.-Elmer Roberts in Serb

PUTTING BRAINS INTO WORK.
How a Little Scientific Study Quad =
rupled Pig Iron Carriers Capacity.

No work seems more simple. more
unlikely to be subject to scientific
study. than the art of carrying pig
iron. This, however. has been subjected
to the most careful scientific study.
Men at Bethlehem. Pa. were loading
pig iron on cars at the rate Of about
twelve tons a day Certain pig
handlers were given extra wages for
doing his work under special direction.
An attempt was made to ascertain the
relation between the amount Of horse
power which each man exerted and
the fatigue he incurred Long con-
tinued experiment furnished a vast
amount of information. but, apparent
~. no law. Finally. Mr.. + w. Taylor
who was conducting the experiments
handed the data over. to an associate
who was apt at mathematical problems
Very soon he reported that he had dis
covered the law-that fatigue varied i'm
proportion to a certain relation between
the amount Of load and the period of
rest For example, man carrying a
92-pound pig had. i'm order to avoid
fatigue. to he at rest IS per cent OF
the time The discovery Of this law
involved a great amount of data. in
Guiding certain physiological facts CON
cering the poisonous effects Of waste
tissue upon the blood and difficult
mathematic farmulae. including the
plotting of curves. As a result. the
pig handlers were directed exactly how
to lift and carry their loads and when
to rest. and the amount of pig iron
handled by each man every day in
creased from twelve and a half tons to
forty seven. OF course the men Pc
Ceived great advance in wages.

THE WORLD OWES YOU
NOTHING

! Don't think for minute that the
world owes you living. for it doesn't
On the contrary, each person owes il
to the world to give something to it,
and the position is rarely reversed
You remember i'm one of the old
school readers there was a story of a
sluggard around whom everything
went to ruin His home was dilapi-
dated. his children were in rags. the
grounds around his house were run
to weeds, the fence was broken and
the gate hung by single hinge. Ac-
complaining the story was a picture
of the man. He was leaning on the
rickety gatepost. his hair unkempt
and his clothes i'm tatters; his eyes
looked sleepy and between his lips
was pipe. To your childish fancy
he was repulsive-so repulsive that
you early imbibed an idea of the
standard of life you wanted for your
self
IL was that story and the picture
that gave you your first fear of idle
ness and consequent poverty; that
gave you wour first fear of being "A
shiftless, nom producing member of
society. You couldn't endure the
picture because there was aspiration
and determination in you to be self
supporting and To rise above the level
of the mediocre. That picture and
that story gave you the incentive to
strive to put the best of yourself
into your work You may, at times
have grown weary and disheartened
but there was always that within you
that drove you on To achievement.
The sluggard of the old school book
represents the type of person who
believes the world owes him a liv-
ing" Each morning when he arises
he probably says To himself. What's
the use of my working? The world
owes me a living. Food. shelter.
clothing and fuel will come. so what's
the use of wearing myself out in use
less work"
This kind Of man always stays
at the bottom. He never gets any
where. He never wins the respect
of his fellowmen and can scarcely
have the respect of his own con-
science. He is an encumberer of the
world and the world owes him abso-
lutely nothing.
The sluggard doesn't live; he merely
exists. He cannot get pleasure out
of life. for to do that a man must put
something into it. The field mouse
that scurries through the tall grass
on his place; the bird that MARBLES in
the unframed bush in his yard or
any other of the creatures of field
or air is really happier than he be-
cause they are contributing to the
comfort and contentment of the world.
or are. at least. working for the food
and shelter they get
Such "A man cannot feel deep i'm his
heart that a part of all he sees i'm his.
He certainly cannot cOnsCientiously
feel that the air. the sunshine and
the beauties of nature are his on an
equal footing with those who have
given their time and energy to help
create the wealth and comfort of the
world Men of this calibre cannot
feel that they have a definite. fixed
place i'm the world, for such places
belong only to those who are willing
to work to hold them. So true that
we are willing to admit is the asser-
ton that life is what we make it,"
