THE RECALL IN ANCIENT GREECE

In the palmy days of the Greek Re-
publics, many centuries ago, as histor-
ians tell us, when man arose to such
a height of power or affluence that he
became a possible menace to the state,
the citizens took vote on his case as
an undesirable.
This was sent to the Senate, and if
the vote was sufficiently large and rep
reSentative that body passed resolu-
ton in which the too distinguished
citizen was invited in polite diplomatic
terms to take few years of retirement
abroad-in other words, he was offic-
tally exiled for the good of the state.
This was "ostracism" so called from
the fact, it is explained, that the voting
citizens wrote their names on oyster
shells, and it was instituted as meas
ure of security to the Commonwealth.
Any citizen of great wealth or infiu-
ence or who had large personal fol-
lowing which might in an emergency
be used to the detriment of the state
was liable to receive this distinguished
mark of public consideration. 1t was
kind of primitive recall, which had the
advantage of being equally applicable
to ms and outs.
Those early Greeks were wonderful
fellows and knew how to deal with the
knotty problems Of their day, which
doubtless included grating and other

edits good newspaper down in East

introduced a bill of considerable merit
and Importance to cotton growers.
Mr. Methvin's bill is intended to pre-

as follows:
From and after the passage of this
act each and every individual, firm or
corporation operating ginnery in this
state, and engaged in the business of
ginning cotton for the public, shall be
required to gin each bale of cotton pr5-
scented at any ginnery for that purpose

back only the lint and seed from the
seed cotton carried by said owner t.

To remedy this the local branches of

known as the "non-dues-paying basis"
Every man or woman who believes in
equal rights is asked to sign card
that reads, 81 believe in the right of

myself as a member of the Fayette
County Equal Rights Association"-or
The Rowan County Woman Suffrage
League" or whatever the name of the
local organization may be. There are
40 penalties attached; one does not
commit himself to anything but a be-
lief in the principle on which our ma
lion was founded; that taxation with
out representation is tyranny. If you
believe in this principle, and have not
signed a suffrage card, get one and
sign it. 1t is a small thing to do for
The cause of justice, hut it is valuable.
If no league exists in your county,

The law creating the Kentucky Tu.
berculosis Commission at the last leg
islature provides also a plan for the
building of small hospitals throughout
the state for the proper treatment of
tuberculosis. The plan in brief is as
follows: The Fiscal Court of any
county may declare that county a dis
trict for the purpose of building a hos
pital. Or, by petition, the question
may be submitted to vote of the peo-
Pile at any regular election, and, II
carried, it is then the duty of the Fis-
cal Court to declare the county. dis
trict. Any group of counties touching
one another may declare themselves
a single district for this purpose by a
vote at any general election which
carries in each Of the counties in
volved. Then, under certain restric-
tons in the law, the State Commission
names a considerable group of citi-
zens, men and women, of the county
or counties involved, from which
group the judges of these counties
name District Board of tuberculosis
Hospital Trustees. This Board then
asks Of the Fiscal Court funds to be
raised in the regular levy Of taxes.
From these funds a site is selected,
subject to the approval Of the State
Commission. and then the Board pro-
ceeds to erect the hospital. The State
Commission is given a very general
oversight of the future activities of

Giving Pensions to Posts.

Gently went on the federal pension
rolls as a veteran of the Civil war
and now draws $14 month which
he gives to a worthy Grand Army
organization at home.
Justice Holmes, of the United
States Supreme Court, was shot four
times in as many battles in the
Civil war. but he has never applied
for a pension. There are several
United States senators entitled to
pensions but never having drawn
them. Among these is said to be
United States Senator Nathan Golf
of this city.
The example of Senator Warren is
likely to be emulated by these gen.
tlemen. The Warren plan COM
mends itself. Grand Army posts in
need would find these pensions very
helpful.
