New York. Aug. 6.-The Frawley leg

the incumbent-and ]. Macdonald
(Progressive) for the seat in the
House from Michigan. Mr.. Mann de-
clares that, notwithstanding technical
construction. of the Michigan election
law, in his judgment Macdonald ought
to have the seat.
The case is to be fought out on the
question whether failure to comply with
the campaign publicity law shall dis
qualify candidate from taking his sea.
in Congress. 1t may drag along until
Mr.. Young has drawn most of his
Congressional salary, but it will have
to be settled some time, and the out
come will establish long disputed
point. The Herald at the time Mr..
MacDonald's election was declared in
valid, though he had plurality of the
votes in the disputed district, stated
that he was said to have been guilty
of technical violation of the publicity
law. The details then were widely dis
cussed. The point now being raised
by the Republican leaders is, regardless
of partisanship, whether the failure Of
Mr.. Macdonald to issue the second of
the required two statements within a
certain time constitutes a vital" fail
ure, or whether it should be classified
as a mere technicality.
Two Republicans were ousted by the
Democrats, Theron Catlin, of Missouri,
and Charles c. Bowman, of Pennsyl-
vania, because they spent too much
money for their election. Congress has
no means of determining the amount
spent unless candidates file complete
expense accounts on time. The Re-
publicans raise the point that if a man
is to be ousted because he spent too
much money and is not to be ousted
because he filed no statement at all,
members who have transgressed simply
will forget" to file their expense ac-
counts and thus will get off without
losing their seats.

A Wholesome Prison Reform.

New Jersey is setting an example in
dealing with the prison problem that
other States should follow. A thou
sand acres of farm land have been
purchased and quarry is soon to be
taken over in the northern part Of the
State. Between the two the prisoners
will not lack for work in the open air,
and in neither case will the product of
their labor come into competition with
free labor. The farm produce will be
consumed by the State institutions and
the quarry output will supply road beds
for the State.
Thus the cost of administering the
State institutions and of road building
will be considerably reduced, prisoners
given employment which will occupy
their minds and furnish them with the
needed physical exercise under condi-
tions impossible to duplicate under the
old prison system. The contract sys-
tenn will be wiped out.

What the Railroads Ask.

President Finley, of the Southern
Railroad, in his address to the North
Carolina newspaper men, in session at
Asheville, was outspoken in his state
ments as to the relations of the rail-
ways and the press as representing the
interests of the communities. He said
The railways are asking for no spe-
cial favors. They ask only that their
importance in the development of the
country and that the interest that each
individual has in their individual eff
cheney shall be frankly recognized
They ask that differences which may
arise between them and individuals OF
communities shall be subjects OF full
and free conference, to be adjusted in
accordance with sound business prin.
ciples, or that failing such adjustment
by the tribunals constituted by law.
These words were so apropos of the
present situation and show such q
correct appreciation of existing con-
ditions that they merit recognition and
publicity. 1t is a position in which the
railway companies and the public util-
titles commissions should have the cor
dial support of the people. Railroads
are necessary to the development OF
the nation, the State, and of each CON-
munity-just as necessary as in the
days of their construction.

A Settled Policy, at Last.

1t was but the logical sequel to the
acceptance of Ambassador Wilson's
resignation by the President that he
should declare emphatically that there
would be no recognition of the Huerta
government, but an attempt at friendly
mediation.
A man better known on both sides
of the Rio Grande and better posted
as to the situation-in short, diplo-
mat of more finesse-than former Gov.
Lind OF Minnesota might have been
chosen to begin friendly overtures, but
he may prove to be the right one. The
adoption of a policy-anything to end
the suspense-is far more important
than the agency chosen to start it. Am
bassador Wilson contended that there
was only the alternative of war or
recognition of Huerta as the solution
OF the Mexican problem. The Presi-
dent was not convinced either of
Huerta's right, or of the Ambassador S
dlsinterestedneSS, or OF the Imminence
of war.
With the purpose of the administra-
ton in sending a special representative
of this nation to Mexico. however,
there is general approval. Mr.. Lind is
to aid tn. United States Embassy there
in carrying out the plan to bring about
a constitutional government, such as
this government can recognize.
1t is a sane program and the Presi-
dent has done well to adopt it. 1t
will take his envoy some time, maybe
weeks, to fulfill his mission. Until
then let us hope that jingoism will
know enough to keep quiet and refrain
from comment that would be detri-
mental. The administration at last is
ION the job Give it fair chance.

viding for currency associations confined
to single cities which would be permit
ted to issue emergency currency under
the regulations of the Treasury Depart
ment up to go per cent OF the value of
prime commercial paper guaranteed by

der to retire 1t as soon as the period of
stringency is resolved, a tax of per
cent per annum for the first four months
of issue ana an additional /, per cent q

ton. The currency Issued by an associa-
ton shall at no time exceed half of the
capital and paid up surplus Of the MEM
Der banks which must have a combined
capital of at least s, 100000.
The bill is offered as an amendment to
the Aldrich-vreeland act 1t represents

posed to the administration currency
measure and Of Republicans who wish to
see the vreeland act amended.

Buffalo Bill.

We are told that the Buffalo Bill
show is no more, that it is in the hands
of receivers, that another American in
stitution has ceased to exist; and we
are sorry, we feel for our children,
for whom the annual Only Genuine
Wild West Show" was not only a
feat, but a feast to look forward to
with pleasure.
Alas for poor Buffalo Bill! He GER
tainly had his ups and downs, from the
time when, as Col Cody, he was one
of the most picturesque figures of the
frontier plains. Though somewhat Of
Beau Brummel," he is a survivor
of a chapter in our history on which
the book is closed forever, as our
friend of the Knickerbocker Press
correctly states.
Col. Cody's father was killed in the
border war in Kansas. From 1861 to
1865 young Cody served with the Sew
enth Kansas Cavalry. Later he con-
tracted to furnish buffalo meat for the
laborers on the Kansas-Pacihc Rail
road. 1t was in the days when buffalo
herds were roaming the prairie, and
Cody is credited with killing more than
1000 bison in filling that contract. Be-
cause of this and similar butcheries
the bison are nearly extinct, and Col.
Cody has no reason to be proud OF
his achievement; but this monster
buffalo hunt gave him his name of
Buffalo Bill" Among his many hair
raising adventures were those as chief
scout for Gen. Sheridan.
1t was his romantic and magnetic
personality, as much as his marvellous
shooting, that made the Wild West show
such a great success for many years.
He has enacted the drama of the plains
before the crowned heads of Europe
and fortunes were made out of his
proves.
Buffalo Bills show was not an exact
counterpart OF pioneer days IN the
West. 1t was always pretty. and
harsh only in spots. while the West
in the early days, was always harsh,
but never pretty. The elegant Stetson
sombrero, patent leather leggings
creased curduroys, silk shirts, and
wsxed mustaches pleased the eyes. II
was the West of the novelist but il
was near enough to the real thing tc
satisfy the "tenderfoot' audience.
But it is all over now. Buffalo Bill:
great show is no more. Col. Codys
wife and her ceaseless litigation, the
divorce court, and the motion picture
men were lessening his receipts and
his glory. Approaching old age is
doing the rest. Poor Buffalo Bill

Changing Sentiment.


From the Sioux City Tribune
An Iowa investigation appears to indi-
cate a changing sentiment relative to
rural life by those who are being raised
on the farm"
Boys and girls in thirty-four schools
in Wright County were asked what they
desired to do. OF the 1854 boys ls7 desired
to leave the farm. and 1853 Of the ia girls
desired to DO likewise.
After agriculture and home economics
were taught for three years in the same
schools, the same question was put
again. with the result that this time 1s2
Of the ia boys and 161 Of the 17s girls
want to stay on the farm.
This is a remarkable change In senti-
rhent as the result Of change In the
course Of study, and 1t strilkingly Illus
trates the value Of the country life
propaganda which was given vogue BY
Theodore Roosevelt during his incum-
bency Of the Presidential ONCE.
This Ia the report Of the result Of ex-
periments in one county. and may not
be regarded as altogether conclusive. but
1t leaves little room for doubt that ex-
cellent results may be expected from
furtherance Of the movement It proves
that the boys and girls Of the farm can
be interested amazingly In the life that
they have heretofore regarded as one OF
drudgery and monotony.
But the work cannot b done Alto
gether In the schools, although rom
these may be expected the full fruition
Of the idea In another generation. II
must receive the hearty cooperation of
the farmer. No boy or girl viii desire
to remain on the farm with few amuse-
ments and working hours the length Of
which render association With friends
practically impossible
