BROTHERS UNDER SKINS
Student Of Eugsnies Traces English
speaking Peoples Back to One
Common "SuperwOman."

San Francisco, Dec. 30-Down at
CarmeI-by-the-Sea. DIR. David Starr Jor-
dan is preparing a bombshell In the
shape of a little book that is expected
to blast a hole in the worlds opinion Of
itself.
DR.. Jordan is, among other things,
president of the Eugenics Commission Of
the American Breeders Association, and
his essay ostensibly will be written for
them.
Equipped with charts and aided by the
most expert genealogist on the Pacific
Coast, DIR. Jordan has traced about Loo
American families. representing several
millions Of years back through our an
cestry.
DIR. Jordan has reached these findings:
l. At least half the citizens in this
country of English ancestry are de-
scendants Of one "superwOman" and
members of one colossal family.
2 Isabella Devermandois, daughter of
crusader and wife OF the Duke Of
Warren. living In the twelfth century. is
the common progenitOr of the teeming
millions whom DR.. Jordan stamps as
the fittesr' OF the English-speaklng
race.
3. John D. Rockefeller and J. p. Nor
gan and their millions OF poor rela-
tons" will now be able to prove it,
4. Rockefeller and Morgan have an
cestral lines also which run back TO that
prince OF buccaneers, Sir Francis Drake
5. Washington. Jefferson, Lincoln, the
two HarrisOns. Cleveland, and Roosevelt
are shown to be quite definitely related.
6. President Emeritus Charles w
Eliot, of Harvard, and Presidents
Nicholas Murray Butler. Of Columbia
the two Timothy DwiGhts. and WOOlsey
Of Yale. and DIR. Jordan himself happen
to fall into a college president trust, due
TO their common interest
:. Practically any family which can
trace its lineage back 10 Isabella Deyer-
mandois is mentally and physically
sound, and its progeny stands more than
the usual chance to inherit the earth.
3. The meeting OF Mother Isabella s
progeny is a step toward the ideal Of
eugenics.
.. True love, with the initiative Of the
individuals. tempered by an understand
ing Of eugenlcs, is far and away a better
method of bringing about this selective
IDEAL than resort to state regulation or
parental interference.

MERIT SYSTEM FOR
STREET CAR EMPLOYEES
Washington Railway and Electric Com
pany to Install New Working
Plan Tomorrow.

With a view to furthering the welfare
of its conductors and motormen, and at
the same time to have a tendency to i'm
prove its service, the Washington Rail
way and Electric Company is installing
a merit and demerit system. which be-
comes operative next Thursday.
The company has issued a statement
10 all conductors and motormen IN its
service. calling attention 10 the work
nEs of the system, which. in effect. is a
modification of the Brown system in use
by several of the larger traction COM
panies of the country. and as such
recommended for adoption by the Ameri-
can Railway Transportation and Traffic
Association at its annual convention.
held at Chicago last October.
So that each cmploye may fully under
stand the system. a Vest-pOCket folder
that explains the entire proposition has
been prepared. and will be kept by each
mOtOrman and conductor. in conjunction
with the book Of rules and POPULATIONS
that each s:.au is compelled to have in
his posscss.C.. while on duty.
The company in its statement. in part
says: The practice OF administering dis
cipline by suspension will be discontinued
except in cases where an employee is IL
able TO discharge, and then only during
investigation. but Immediately after in
NeSIBallOn restoration 10 duty or dis
charge will follow
The new system places all the men on
an equal footing. inasmuch as everyone
starts with clear record on New Years
Day, and with an allowance each month
OF three credits. or thirty-sx per annum.
The accumulation OF eighty dement's will
result automatically in discharge from
the service. When fifty dement's have
accured. the employe will be called to
the office of Superintendent Of Transpor-
tation Moffett and shown the lines upon
which he must improve if he expects to
be retained. Each and every employee
may have access to his own record at
any time, so that he may know just
how he stands.
If a discharged employee feels there are
extenuating circumstances, he may ap-
peal personally to the superintendent,
and II his unemployment is approved by
proper authority, the debit against his
record will commence at fifty dement's.
A second accumulation of eighty dement's
will permanently retire the employee.
Credits will be allowed employees for
meritorious service, commendable acts,
deeds of heroism and loyalty, good judge
ment in emergencies. &c. by a like
method of merit marks. the number of
which will concel corresponding num-
Der of dement's.

A GOVERNORS DEVICE AND
WOMAN'S RARE COURAGE

her, has the reputation of being I'M
afraid. And she is such a tiny woman
for such strenuous work!
In the past. not so very distant, either
nobody would have expected women to
take much interest in the Official acts
OF a Governor. no matter what he might
venture to do.
But now that they are serving at the
head Of commissions and in other ca
pacities, where their duties send them
out among the prisons, and in strang
strange work. they are taking the activ-
tiles of the world, its interests, and its
efforts, for their own.
And when We stop to wonder what A
woman might do. and how she might
act in some grave situation, we can
generally find an answer in a woman
who is daily proving that conviction,
independence. and courage are part OF
her working creed.

Admire His Courage.

And as for me I admire his courage and
his humanity. for peonage. as II has
worked out IN other States. is nothing
short Of slavery. Conditions of convict
camp life in Arkansas have not been
made public, but in Georgia, where the
system was abolished about three years
ago, white women were exploited with
the rest.
But If it had happened that the Gov
ernor of Arkansas had been a woman.
what would she have done?
Probably there are few women who
would not have wanted to take exactly
the course he followed, and doubtless
many would have gone ahead. But be-
fore they were approved for their action.
and Endorsed for their independence. and
before half the world took the pains to
learn the iniQuities of the atrocious con-
Wet camp system. there would have been
many cries of feminine emotionalism,
"sentimentalism." and the like. And it
would have taken some courage TO par
don $50 ConviCts, just as a protest

By FRANCES SHAFFER.

As one reads of the remarkable pardon
OF $50 convicts by Gov. George W. Dom
aghey OF Arkansas, several thoughts
come to mind.
In the first place, one is glad that Ar
kansas has a Governor independent
enough to act when he cannot bring
about a much-needed reform in any other
way The convict lease system Is back
of the unusual proceeding. and the stories
that have come from those abominable
camps in other States make one guess
some of the rank abuses that may have
Influenced the Governor TO take this per-
emptory way of wiping out three OF
the camps that he could not abolish
through ordinary channels.
The Governor says he has consistently
fought the system and has urged State
action against il; the public has disap-
proved and vigorously protested: but the
convict camps still remain. with their
ugly stain against modern civilization
and modern Arkansas. So the Governor
has taken the law in his own hands and
has administered an effective rebuke and
mazda a falling stem forward
