HE WOULD PUT LID ON
BIRTHS; HIS REASONS
DR.. T. M. CARVER TAKES ISSUE
WITH DR.. ELIOT.
Urges Salary for Guage; Marriage It.
self Is Only Continuance to Linn
it to Supporting Ability; Prog
ress Acts as Bar to Birth-rate;
No Mar Should Have Children
Until He Can Support Them.

Boston, Mass, February 22.-Pro-
fessor Thomas j n. Carver who lee
lures on economies at Harvard col
lege, disagrees with his former chief,
DR.. Charles w. Eliot, as to the size
of families. Dr Eliot, "a few days
ago, argued that mo restriction OF
the birth rate can be supported
either by morals or economics" and
that "a mother should bear a child
once every two years. Granting that
marriage should come at the average
age of twenty-four, this periodical
collaborating should continue till the
mother is forty, resulting in eight
children. This high number, how
ever, would be lowered i'm average by
the death of either parent or two or
more OF the children"
In reply to this Professor Carver
says the size of salary should regu-
late the size of family.
Progress Restricts Birth Rate.
Whoever makes the statement
that no restrictions of the birth rate
can be supported by economics is
certainly not taking the point of
view of most economists" says DR..
Carver. THE entire progress of civ
ilization has been toward this end.
Marriage itself is nothing more or
less than an economic continuance to
control the birth rate. Its purpose is
to make every person responsible for
the offspring he produces. The more
a nation progresses, the more its
birth rate becomes restricted.
Every institution affecting the in
crease of population aims at the clos
er regulation of the increase in chill
dren. This law applies even to the
family. The family exists solely for
the purpose of controlling the num-
Der of children by providing that
every child shall have legal sup
porter.
The Economic Phase.
Where this is not accomplished
the family as an institution is a fail
ure. There would be no such thing
as the family if it were not for the
necessity of providing for the sup
port Of children, and further, there
would be no such thing as the fam
lily if it were not for the express
economic purpose of controlling the
number of children and insuring
their support.
Certainly no economist will admit
that man should have children be-
fore he is qualified to support them
In cases where a man persisted i'm
having more children than he could
support, more than his salary would
care for, | suppose the state would
look out for the extra children

RED CROSS DEGREE WORK
Knights Templar Held An important
Meeting Last Night.

The Knights Templar had work in
the red cross degree last night
They also voted to refuse to grant
the Sir knights of st. Peter consent

Templar in that city. The jurisdic
ton of Mankato commandery No. 4
now extends to the twin cities on
the north, and to grant st. Peter

New York, February 22.-New
York was the first city in the coun-
try to celebrate Washington's birth
day as a holiday, as it was the city
to put Labor day on the calendar.
The first observance of the natal day
of the father of his country took
place at a downtown tavern on the
evening of February %, 1888, when a
number of gentlemen met at dinner,
drank numerous tOasts, made several
speeches lauding General Washing
ton, who had not then become "a
steel engraving" and departed, mel
low and happy, in the early hours of
February %. From that time on
Washingtons birthday was celebrat-
ed annually in this city, the public at
large gradually coming to take part
in the observance.
Other Cities Took Up Practice.
Other cities took up the practice
and before Washington became presi-
dent his birthday had been celebrated
in many parts of the country. Be-
fore Washington's death, the birth.
day celebration in this city had
many of the characteristics Of the OBJ
servance of the kings birthday in
colonial times-an occasion for hard
drinking, merry parades, and no lit
tie disorder. In the year following
the death of the first president, the
observance took on more serious
tone, and the newspapers of that
time report many sermons and eulo-
gies, but no merrymaking. The cen
tennial celebration of Washington's
birth, i'll 1882. was marked in New
York by a famous celebration.
New York Holiday Town.
Few cities in the country observe
holidays so generally as New York
The citizen of the metropolis dearly
loves a day off, and few, who can
possibly do SO neglect an opportunity
to spend day in merrymaking or
joyous idleness. The popular con-
ceptcn of New Yorker as a blase
individual who has seen everything
and knows everything is, taking the
population by and large, an errone-
Gus one. Any sort of a parade in
New York will attract more atten-
ton and a much larger crowd than
would similar spectacle in any
other city in the land. With it's cos
mopolitan population, New York has
holiday or festival of some sort
nearly every day in the year.
York State Chess Meet.
Play commenced today in the an
nual tourney of the New York State
Chess association at the rooms of
the Manhattan Chess club. In addi-
ton to the championship tourney,
which is open to all, there will be a
secondary match for the less expert
players.

EMBOSSED MANKATO BILL
State Automobile Association Took
Action on Measure.

j. II. Hobmann returned last night
from Minneapolis, where he attend
ed the annual meeting of the State
Automobile association as the repre-
sentative of the Mankato Automobile
club. He states that the meeting
was large and very enthusiastic
one.
Mr.. HOhmann succeeded in getting
the meeting to endorse the bill pro-
posed by the Mankato Auto club
to permit railroads to carry road
building material free or at reduced
rates if they desire. This was the
last action taken by the meeting
just before adjournment.
Mr.. HOhmann is in favor of the
proposition advanced at the meet
ing, to have convicts placed at work
on the roads, as in this way they
do not compete with free labor, and
a great deal of good might be &C.
complished.
The automobile show is larger
and better than ever so Mr.. Hob
mann states, and the show room was
crowded yesterday.
