Voting by Nail.

Mr.. Charles Francis Adams plan OF
voting for President by mail does not
seem to meet any present requirements.
it is based upon the idea of an election
by the popular vote of the whole coun-
try, and it would impose large powers
and responsibilities on the Post-ofice
Department. Voting envelopes of spe-
cial form would be delivered to each
registered voter, in which the voter
would record his choice; the envelope
would then be sealed, and delivered to
a special carrier
The plan resembles the plebiscitum of
Napoleon III in 1852, by means of which
that usurper obtained the seeming ap-
proval by the French people. His cleo
ton officers found no difficulty IN re-
turning precisely the vote the Emperor
desired
The voters of the United States will
continue to elect their Presidents in
the constitutional way, by States, and
the citizens qualified to vote will not
hesitate to go to easily accessible polling
places. or else lose their privilege as
electors: But MIR. Adams plan is new,
and its newness will secure for it some
measure of favorable consideration from
all those who think that anything which
is new also must be good.

Germany's Meat Famine.

How severe is the meat famine in
Germany is revealed by the drastic
measures taken by the government to
relax the conditions under which meat
and live cattle are imported into the
country. In the same announcement
which modifes the duties and suspends
the frontier regulations, the Imperial
Chancellor is careful to say that the
ameliorative measures are only tenn
porary expedient to meet what he be-
lieves is temporary scarcity. He adds
that the government does not intend to
depart from the established fiscal sys-
tenn of the country.
These assurances are meant to serve
a double purpose-O To prevent
exultation and encouragement among
German free traders; (2) to soften
the anger of the agrarians, for whose
special benefit the detested food taxes
so long have been maintained. Events
may prove too powerful for the Ger
man protectionists.
The very fact that the suferings and
the agitation of the workers have COM
PEELED the government to break down
the barriers which perverted ingenu-
ity has erected to impede the free
course of trade in itself shows the
inherent weakness of the German pro-
tectionist system.

The Baseball Champions.

The struggle and vicissitudes of the
deciding battles between the crack
teams of the National League and the
American League of professional ball
players is over and once more politics
again will claim our attention, but it
will provide a pleasing topic of con-
versation for many day. Baseball, in
deed. is an American institution when,
as we are told. 252,ooo persons paid
nearly $4,000 Tin admission alone) to
see the two contending teams, the Red
Sox. of Boston, and the Giants, Of New
York, fight determinedly, ably. and
fairly for the mastery (by courtesy of
the whole world. This vast number
does not, however, include the untold
thousands at the tickers or at bulletin
boards or anywhere they could learn
the score quickly. We hear that even
the venerable justices of our highest
court tribunal passed the score bulle-
tions from hand to hand while on the
bench attending to their solemn duties.
America knows how to play ball.
When the championship series runs its
full course and the struggling teams
go into a tenth inning with the score
a tie at to 1. there is good cause to
congratulate not only the winners, but
to applaud the losers. Never, perhaps.
in the history of our great national
game has the struggle been so keenly
and bitterly-but nevertheless so clean
ly-waged, and the Red Sox deserve
the greater credit for carrying off the
palm of victory by so narrow a margin
Praise is due the Giants for the
game fight they made in sprucing up
and winning two games, thus "squar-
ing the series. In fact, victory was in
their grasp at the twelfth hour. but
errors are part of baseball.
To conclude: A team that knows how
to take advantage OF fatal blunders in
the most exciting rush of battle. de-
serves to win.

Worlds Most Radical Charter.

Los Angeles new city charter, which
will be submitted to its voters this
month, embodies some unique features
which, according to the opinion of ex-
perts who attended. the recent Iconven-
ton of the National Municipal League
in some respects are the best thus fai
devised.
The charter grants the city the broad
est powers for taking over and running
municipal enterprises of any city in the
country. 1t provides that Los Angeles
may acquire and run any kind of busi-
ness exactly like an. individual. firm, OF
corporation. g..
Specifically mentioned the city ,oi
Los Angeles may. operate stadiums,
theaters. public forums, fountains
dairies. creameries, milk stations. but
ter and cheese factories, banks. savings
repositories, pawn shops. loan agencies
bureaus of funeral supplies. bake shops
and department stores.
The charter is very brief, but it is
supplemented by an administrative code
which may be changed by a referendum
vote of the citizens, while the charter
provisions themselves can only be al
tered with the consent of the State
Legislature.

The Quaker Quinqnennial.

Quakers do not do a great deal in
. the way of self-advertising, but it is
an error to believe that they are largely
memory only, having little part in the
religious or other organized church ac-
tivities of the present day. Their mum.
bers may not be increasing, but they
are still factors of the higher progress
. This is evidenced by the five years
meeting" of the Religious Society oi
Friends, which this time again con.
ivened at indianapolis.
The division in the sect, which took
place eighty-fve years ago, caused the
two factions-the HicIcsites and the
Trinitarians-to proceed on separate
lines, but the relation. of fellowship
was maintained. But since the beginning
pf the new century there has been a
more noticeable drawing together, re-
suit;ng in additional strength for theii
missionary and educational enterprises
m both of which, according to their
numbers, they occupy a prominent
even . progressive, position.
There are approximately 10000
Quakers in the country, and yet they

Two view. on Concentration.

President Van Hise. Of the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin, is a recent recruit to
the plan of concentration of capital sub
ject to government recognition and
control.
This Western economist takes the
view that such concentration is inevita-
bic and that, competition being dead,
there is but one resort, namely, to have
the central government oversee the
prices. His is familiar idea coinci-
dent substantially with the programme
of the .Progressives.
There could hardly be a better re-
sponse to this sort of argument than
the declaration of Louis Brandeis, the
Boston lawyer. who believes that sug-
gestion like that advanced by Prof.
Hise is based upon an anomalous as
sumption. They presuppose that there
is no danger of control of the govern
ment by the very corporations which il
is expected to regulate. This is sound
logic.
