and administration elsewhere I'm.
known; but the recognition Of the
personal nature of the professors
work, OF a distinctively personal
measurement OF his value, has never
been abandoned. it Is AgassiZ, or
Child, or Martin, or Gibbs. or Norton,
or Gildersleeve--not 81 many hours
OF their labor-that Harvard, or Yale,
or Johns Hopkins has had the good
fortune to possess; and every faithful
and competent professor has a right
10 feel that the same is true OF him
in his degree. But how long would
that feeling survive under a system
which required each professor to
make report Of every hour that he
spent upon his work. and have his
pay doled out to him accordingly?
1t is easy TO accuse those who o.
ject to the introduction Of this eff.
cheney nostrum OF being r~eactionaries
.-upholdecs OF the doctrine that what
ever is is right. But it is still easier
to reply to the accusation. Not be-
cause our universities and colleges
are all that they ought to be, but be-
cause the proposed remedy Is a crude
and barbarOus one, do we reject that
remedy. We ought to have more com.
petent teachers, we ought to have
more inspiring leaders of research;
but we shall not get them by means
Of time checks or card catalogues.
The American professor is already
far more subject to managerial con-
troll than his fellow in Germany Or
France; but it is in America, and not
In Germany or France, that the cry
Of incompetent professors and inefi.
Gent instruction is continually heard.
What is needed, above all things else,
is to make the professorship attract
i've to superior :nen-men of original.
ity, men Of power, men Of enthlsi-
assn. When you have got all your
time-card eficicncy.measure mechan-
ism going, you may be able to CON.
pei every professor to come up to a
certain standard; but you cannot com
pei the men whom you ought to have
as professors to enter the calling.
You may get the same amount of ere
suits out of the Faculties for less
money, or a greater amount for the
same money, so far as results can
be measured by your mechanical
methods; hut what you have lost you
will never be able to measure. And
what shall it profit the university to
have gained countless student-hours
and experiment-units and to have lost
what is highest and best in it?

MATRIMONY As A STATE FUNC.
TON.

~"
A young, vigorously growing state,
the one honored with the name OF
Washington, has planned to establish
this year a matrimonial bureau,
through which the surplus Of women
in the east can become better &C.
~quainted with the surplus Of men in
! the northwestern rne of the cour-
try, with serious intentions on both
sides, according to the st. Louis Globe
Democrat. 1t is said that substantial
public sentiment here is urging the
legislature to pass the necessary law,
and that many members are pledged
to it. Woman suffrage has just been
adopted III the state and the move
ment will have the authoritative back
ing of both sexes, as it should to be
wisely proportional. In one Aof the
large counties an official has already
brought about numerous marriages,
and he has lately received from an.
other county the names of 100 bache.
lor homesteaders, who ask to be put
on the active list. He replies that he
has the addresses of 1900 Eastern
women, chiefly factory girls, who de-
sire to go west, marry and grow up
with Yhn nn,rfr1- . II woo ammo tho
Rockies that the first woman suffrage
states were founded, and if they are
also to be the pioneers in %state-pro-
NOTED marriage they will be respon-
sible for another novelty in the sci
of government and sociology.
At various times in the worlds his
tory a surplus of men has looked
around for the corresponding surplus
of women sure to exist somewhere.
History has it that the fellow-colo-
nists of Romulus realized that the
need of wives was imperative. In
looking for a solution they noticed
the girls of a neighboring native
tribe, the Sabines, seemed likely, and
the Roman bachelors proceeded to
help themselves to mates by superior
strength. When the Sabine warriors
to recapture their kinswomen
they found them not unwilling prs-
oners, but advocates of a peaceful al.
lance with the Romans, and that was
the best basis for being happy
forever after. In the early history Of
Virginia, fourteen years after the
first settlement at jamestown, the
London company began to ship young
women to supply the colonists with
wives, at a cost Of l2e pounds Of to-
bacco for each Of the fair assisted
Immigrants. The matches mainly
turned out wellsand wereanot without
certain elements of romance. No
state is prouder than Virginia Of its
first families. They have. atfen the
