Two overcrowded Professions.

Too many young men are entering the
legal and medical professions. says a
recent report of the Carnegie .Founda-
ton. Both professions, It asserts, are
overcrowded and in consequence both
suffer. Lawyers who find it impossible
TO make a living through legitimate
methods are under temptation to try
methods which are not legitimate The
ethics OF the medical profession. which
were the pride Of old-time physicians,
have Jared badly under new harshly
competitive conditions.
There is likely 10 be a sharp division OF
opinion concerning these observations.
President Pritchett. of the foundation,
says the remedy for the condition he de-
plores is in raising the standard of ad-
mission to professional schools. This,
OF course, is the solution commonly pro-
posed and sometimes tried. But even
this has an element of uncertainty.
Even in these admittedly overcrowded
professions the old adage remains true
that plenty OF room exists at the top.
The difficulty is in Identifying those
qualified to reach the top, in sorting
the top-notchers from those who will
never climb above the lower rungs. But
something should be done and the rails
ing of the scholastic requirements seems
the readiest. surest method. Apparent
ly the only recognized profession not
overcrovded is the ministry. Here room
appears TO exist at the top and bot
tom. 1t is not proposed to cut down
admissions to theological schools. Some
day perhaps there will be a change of
sentiment in respect to this noblest of
all professions.

SOCIETY LEADERS
AS FLOWER GIRLS
One Purchase and Then Man Will
No More Be Importuned.
Duchess Flower Girl.

London, May 1s.-The Duchess OF Mari
borough will. for one day only, become a
hower-girl outside the Stock Exchange.
This will be one OF the delightful original
features OF Alexandra Day." which
comes toward the end of June.
The sponsors OF Alexandra Day" are
a number Of society women. whose plan
is to devote this day to the collection of
money for the many hospitals and chari-
ties in which Queen Alexandra is inter
ested.
One way Of collecting funds will be
that a number Of society women will act
as fiower-girls. They will be equipped
with a tray OF artificial Wild roses. which
will be sold for any price which the pur-
chaser chooses to give.
He may buy one for a penny or one
for a sovereign, or even a five-pound
note-and he will not be prevented from
paying more II he insists upon #.
Now note the fine knowledge Of msscu-
line psychology which these pretty
schemers reveal. Once a man has bought
a rose he will not be asked to buy
another. He may go his way without
fear Of the accusing money-box rafting
in his ears and conscience.
The first rose bought purchases i'm
munity, which he will claim by wearing
the flower In his button-hoIe for the re-
mainder of the day.
The man who wears no rose will pro-
claim TO all mis- fellow-men the nlggard-
illness which win not put the hand in the
pocket even once for so good a cause.

The State Of Washington
b. GEoRGE FITCH,
Author Of "At Coed GA siwasA."

The state OF washington. which plays
left end on the map for this glorious re-
public is a large and vociferous Com
rnonwealth, which Is rapidly becoming an
ex-foreA and a future hotbed for ma
tional banks. II lies between Canada,
the Columbia River, Idaho, and the Pa
cine Ocean. and is shaped like maya
zine page after the baby has finished
playing with II.
Thirty years ago Washington had 1000
people, including Indians not washed.
Now II has LOO 900 citizens, and Is grow
ing faster than any State. except Okla
bona. II was acquired by the United
States in 1903 for about cents an acre.
and was allowed 20 grow up Wild until
the late SOS, when enough pine trees
were cut out TO allow q few settlers 70

thus occasionaing much hard feeling
among the conservatIonists. Every time
a Washington pine comes crashing to the

Washington clusters around Puget

body Of water, too highly seasoned for

II has a climate which Is moist enough

tons. Washington is one OF the few

suspending Sentences.

The new practice of suspending SEN
fences in order to give men convicted
of an offense or even of a crime an
opportunity to reform, places a heavy
responsibility upon criminal judges to-
ward the public The power to suspend
sentences must be used discreetly, not
sentimentally or by favor. If there be
any weakness in a judge, the oppor-
tunity to say whether a man who has
been convicted shall go to jail or go
free will be sure to bring it out. 1t
subjects him to all sorts of pressure
from politicians or from friends of the
accused. If he is goodhearted, he is
likely to be led away from duty by his
own feelings. Or he may be made the
victim of untried humanitarian theo-
ries.
This is not to be taken as an argu-
ment against tDuspending sentences. 1t
is merely intended to show that the
practice makes strength of character
and high order of consciousness
indispensable on the bench. The charge
made by the police 81 New York that
the power of suspending sentences has
been abused may be well founded, and
there may be weakness on the Cen
eral Sessions bench that could not be
construed as benefting the commu-
nifty or safeguarding its society. Should
there really be sentimentality, arbitrari-
ness, or political favoritism, the use of
the discretion of suspended sentence by
judges makes it far more important
than ever before that the bench should
be strengthened.

Tall Queen. and short Kings.

Many European monarchs are Of
shorter stature than their queens. George
is several inches shorter than Queen
Mary. The German Empress is slightly
taller than the Kaiser; and II is alleged
that when they are being photographed
together William sees that the Queen
takes a seat while he himself stands.
The Gar of all the Russias is by no
means as tall as his consort, and Alfonso
OF Spain is said to be a head shorter than
Queen Victoria Eugene. The, King of
Italy hardly reaches 10 the shoulder Of
his Montenegrin wife. The Queen of Den
mark. too. is taller than her husband.
Exceptions are the King of Norway and
the King of the Belgians. The latter. six
feet two inches in height, is the tallest
ruler in Europe.

National Control of Levses.

The South is still advocating the
maintenance of the Mississippi levees
by the Federal government She points
out the nationality of the interests in

of Waters" belongs to the nation. For
more than a century the Valley States
have been fighting their own battles

the great spring foods, and she believes
the time is now at hand for the ma
tional government to aid in her unceas-
ing struggle.
Richard H. Edmonds, editor of the
Manufacturers Record, of Baltimore,
points out the fact that the national
Ievee control is not a new idea He
writes:
AT a convention held in Memphis in
IS4S, with 600 delegates. representing
Pennsylvania, Iowa, Indiana, Illinois,
and Ohio, as well as the States OF the
South, and presided over by John c.
Calhoun, the position was taken that
the Mississippi River and its control
was a national and not State problem.
Calhoun, with that broad vision which
characterized his craftsmanship, took
the ground that what individual enter
prise could effect alone should be left
to individual enterprise; that what a
State and individuals could achieve to-
gether was to be left to their joint
action; but what neither of these, sep
arately or conformity, could accomplish
was the province of the Federal gov
eminent, and this, IN his opinion, was
the situation as to the Mississlppi
River"
Although the Mississippi River drains
fully twenty-seven States, only two
comparatively small States have to bear
the brunt of the accumulated foods Of
the great river. This burden should not
be borne by Louisiana and Mississippi
alone. All the Valley States should
aid, and, in a larger sense, the nation
itself should lend the strong arm OF
its resources to the work. The compre-
hensive projects of waterway improve
ment are national, and, by the same
logic, the slow and arduous task OF
levee improvement should be national.

Nationwide Primaries.

If the present Presidential campaign
should settle that the choice Of nominees
IN national conventions, made up Of
delegates elected in separate State pri-
maries, is a method that does not fully
express the will of the voters, it will
be time to consider the plan embodied
in Senator Cummins' bill, now before
the Senate, establishing a national pri-
mary day to nominate Presidential
and Vice Presidential candidates of the
various national parties on single bal
lot and at the same time, the contest
ant receiving the highest number Of
votes to be declared the nominee of his
party in each case. Electoral tickets
are to be elected for each party in the
same manner and at the same primary.
State primary laws, in so far as they
do not conflict with the national plan,
are to govern.
To begin with, the date chosen in
the Cummins bill is all wrong. It is the
second Monday in July a time when
millions of voters may be absent. 1t
is the vacation season, and man must
be a good patriot indeed to persuade
him to remain home and forego the an
ticipated pleasure and needed rec
reation after years labor in order to
register or to vote. Mid-July also is
,,k..-t;.-,hf,s ho.,ys, - ,,.o,,iJ I,o.- -,
the business disturbance which usually
is in the wake of the old convention
system. The Cummins date would
mean the beginning of an active can
vass for nomination in midwinter
and the first period of the contest, end
ing in midsummer, would be followed
by the usual regular campaign that en-
crosses the country until November.
We believe that September would be
preferable, because that month finds
voters back in their customary abodes,
and because it would shorten the con-
test and the uncertainty to business in
terests.
The national primary IS better than
the State primaries and conventions
combined, because direct primary and
convention are not compatible Any
State law governing the choice of dele
gates can be set at naught by the ma
tional convention, which is law unto
itself Another argument in favor of a
national primary is that the consider
able differentiation of time in holding
State primaries enables candidates to
concentrate efforts on certain territory
which may be putting a premium on
corrupt practices.
To conclude; The result of sepa-
rate primaries in the various States may

She has been duly arraigned before

The Defeat Of Berger.

In the indianapolis platform the So
ciaiists show an Inconsistency by charg-
ing that the antitrust laws and rail-
road restrictions, with the indictments
and investigations based upon such leg
islation, have proved to be futile. Lead
ing Socialists have often declared that
the suppression of competition and the
concentration of industry in the hands
of few trusts or individuals was q
long step toward the goal Of collective
ownership. They went 50 far as to
greet the Rockefellers, the Morgans,
&c, as worthy workers in the vineyard
of Socialism, because when the rail-
roads and the mines and manufacturing
industries were brought together under
the control Of a few combinations it
would be SO much easier for the state
to take them over for the common veal.
Anything that delayed this result was
supposed to be opposed to Socialist
policy. Everything fastening it was
cause for congratulations If the So
-cialists really believe that the enforce
ment of the Sherman law has proved
futile, why do they deplore it? They
know better. They know that each
trust and combination that has been
dissolved and defeated represents to
them step backward.
At Indianapolis they were playing
politics, not preaching Socialism. The
only thing fully apparent throughout
the convention was that there was no
harmony, the aggressive faction, head
ed by Haywood 1.-THE Industrial Work
ers of the World, and the more con-
servative Bergerites trying for the su-
prenlacy Even after the vote had been
