Provisions Become Effective.

AS designated by the convention
the provisions that become effective
with the new year are: Reform in
civil jury system, dispositions by the
state and comment on failure of ac-
cused to testify in criminal cases;
suits against the state, damage for
wrongful death, Investigations by each
house of the general assembly, limit
ing veto power of governor, mechan-
les and builders liens, welfare of EN-
ployes, workmens compensatiOns, con-
servation of natural resources, eight
hour day on public work, removal of
officials, regulating expert testimony
in criminal trials, registering and war
ranting land titles, abolishing prison
contract labor, limiting power of gen
eral assembly in extra sessions,
change in judicial system, judge Of
court of common pleas for each Coun-
ty, compulsory primary elections, Or
ganization of boards of education, reg
ulating insurance, abolishing board of
public works, taxation of state and
municipal bonds, inheritances, in
comes, franchises and production of
minerals, regulating of corporations
and sale of personal property, double
liability of bank stockholders and in
spection of private banks, regulating
state printing, civil service in state
Offices, method of submitting amend
ments to the constitution, amendments
for license to traffic in intoxicating
liquors.
So sweeping are the departures of
many of these amendments and so
fraught with possibilities of good to
all the people and evil to all the peo-
pie that since their adoption many
people have come to believe that the
general assembly in legislating under
them, should make haste slowly. To
feel the way through the provisions,
it is often said. This sentiment finds
encouragement from leaders of the
dominant party, who are, however,
pledged to put into effect the manda-
tory amendments.

Ancient Science,

1t is generally supposed that those
who combated the opinion that the
earth was sphere when Columbus
proposed his great voyage were only
giving expressions to opinions that
had always been entertained. But the
fact is that long before the Christian
era the Greek and Egyptian philoso
pliers entertained the idea that the
earth was round and knew vastly
more about eclipses, the motions Of
the moon and other astronomical mat
ters than many do even today. The
idea of Columbus had been anticipated
by the ancient philosophers by more
than sixteen centuries.

Francis L. Kelley, Catholic chaplain
to the prisoners, is converted into law

has expressed himself as in favor of
passing laws to improve the condi-

If Ohio should adopt such policy,
it would be the first state to try the
experiment, Two years ago Governor
Harmon recommended the plan as one
which would give great results.
Rev. FIR. Kelley suggests that pris-
oners be compelled to attend school
at least three hours each day and that
they be graded in their work. The
studies, he urges, should be the same
as the common school curriculum.
Credit should be irrevocabie, so that

lnfirmary Directors Go.

With the new year the old board Of
public works, the despair of reformers
for a score of years, becomes only
memory, and one man takes the place
of three place holders. In every coun-
ty of the state, by the operation OF the
Browder act doing away with infirmary
directors, three men are turned out of
positions and their duties added to
those of the county commissioners. BY
this law 264 officers are removed.
In the canal department OF the state
government Superintendent John l..
Miller, who succeeds the old board of
public works, says he can save $4,000
o year. His first step is to be to cut off
three canal superintendents, reducing
the number to two. The old board will
meet to turn over the work to Mr..
Miller.

Columbus, O.-Important changes in
Ohio's government, both IL systems
under which various parts are to op-
crate and in the men who administer
the functions came about on January
l with the dawn Of a new year. Not
in decades, perhaps not since the con-
stitution of 1851 went into effect, have
there been so sweeping changes. AS
far as they affect the social organism
the so-called reforms may be said to
be evolutionary rather than revolu-
tionary in their nature.
Not less in the laws than in the in
terpreters of the laws is there muta-
tation. With January the Ohio su-
preme court is recast. 1t remains to
be seen whether the mutations will in
crease the standing before the world
of the highest tribunal of the Buckeye
state. For the first time since the civil
war the court will be controlled by
men who profess Jeffersonian prin-
ciples as against the Hamiltonian, who
have for nearly half century written
the final word in Ohio law.

FAME OF IDAHO ELECTRICITY
SPREADS.

Idaho will become known as the
electrical State if the good WORK
started by the Idaho Club Women
last December keeps up. In that
number this magazine started a cam
paign of exploitation of the electrical
resources of Idaho, telling how the
people of the state use more electri-

power than any other state in the
Union, population considered.
In that excellent book issued by the
State immigration Commissioner, en-
titled, ''The Dawn of Plenty the ar
ticle by the editor of the Idaho Club
Woman, Solving the Servant Girl
Problem" was reprinted entire, illus
trations and all with proper credit,
so that it will be given an additional
circulation of thirty thousand among
the homeseekers and investors of the
East, who will thus learn of the ad-
vantages offered by Idaho in solving
the servant question.
That club women are appreciative
of the superiority of the use of ele-
ctricity over other fuel, is shown by
the following comment in the West
ern Woman's Outlook, Seattle, Wash
ington, which says:
Idaho women have discarded the
oldfashioned cook stove and gas
range, and many of the kitchens are
equipped with electrical cooking ap-
paratus. Isn't it about time for ele-
ctric current to be applied to cook
ing in Seattle? The city should
make some effort to supply electricity
for the purpose at reasonable rate.
Modern convenience demands the re-
legation of the ill-smelling, danger

the background where it belongs

which was finally SKINNED by hand
as usual This crude device formed
the nucleus of de Lavals automatic
centrifugal separator, in which the
cream is discharged in continuous
stream from the rotating vessel. Such
was deLaval's sense of honor that he
refused to sell his invention until he
had first given an option to the in
ventor of its crude prototype. AS the
latter, however did not avail himself
of this offer, de Lvaal proceeded in
dependently with his own device.
De Laval was a great inventor;
but he was more-he was a man of
great character. His patriotism took
the practical shape of services rend-
cred to the State as member of the
Lower and of the Upper House of the
Swedish Parliment. From these act
ivities he retired in 1896, finding
that, after all, his best qualifications
lay in other directions.
