A CONFESSION OF INCOMPE
TENCE.

In resignine from the Senate
Senator Bailey of Texas per.
formed about the only public ser
vice Of his political career. Be
fore leaving, he made long.
winded address against the Init
iative and Referendum. He
seems unconscious of the fact that
the very presence. of men with
such records as his in legislative
bodies alone, constitutes an I'M
answerabl9 argument for direct
legislation. He Internationally
admitted his own incompetence.
Holding up a copy of the official
pamphlet, which the State of
Oregon sends to all voters eX-
planning the measures to be vot-
ed on, Bailey scoffed at the idea
that the people are capable of
understanding it's contents and
added: 81 could not understand
it all myself" Then, according
to his own confession, the people
are at least as competent as he
is to pass On these matters. Yet
he wants all power to enact leg
islation to he left with represen-
tatives as himself.
Senator Ashurst, of Arizona,
delivered an able reply to Bal
ley's screed. But it was super.
fluous. Bailey had himself suf-
ficiently discredited all that he
stands for.-American Economic
League.

CANADA STILL ADVANCING

By a vote of $4,000 to 5000
the people of Toronto voted on
January LIST in favor of instruct
ing the legislature of Ontarla to
enact a measure allowing I'M
provements to be taxed at Il
lower rate than land values. The
great popular interest that was
taken in the matter is evident
from the fact that city officials
were elected at the same time
and the total vote on the head
of the ticket was 1000. The
majority in favor of taking this
first step toward the single tax
i'll the most important city OF
Canada is four to one of those
voting thereon and is tWo-thirdS
of the entire number voting at
the election.
The vote is only advisory, since
Toronto does not vet have home
rule IN taxation. But it shows
the trend Of public sentiment in
a city that has been a Tory
stronghold. 1t is a strong hint
to Sir James Whitney, Ontario S
Toty Premier, that he was wrong
when he recently declared that
there is no public demand for eX-
emption Of improvements or for
home rule in taxation.
1t is evident that Eastern Can
ada is profiting by the example
of the progressive provinces OF
the West.

QUEEN ENA'S HEROIC FIGHT
FOR SON.

They are burning lights in the
chapels of Spain and lombard
ing heaven with prayers for little
DON Jaime, the heir=apparent to
the throne.
The doctors who have been
treating him for deafness hold out
no hope of a cure. They are
quoted as expressing the convlc-
ton that he is probably doomed
to spend the rest of his life with
out either hearing or speaking.
Only the miraculous Intervention
Of Providence, the good people OF
Spain now believe, can save him.
SO There are votive offerings to
the Lord of Hosts every day that
something may be done for the
younster who may one day be
king.
In all other respects the lad IS
perfectly normal. and physically
vigorous. But from his birth he
has suffered from a chronic COM
plant of the nose and throat,
which has been steadily growing
more severe, in spite of heroic
measures to check it's develop
ment. In the hope of staving Off
permanent deafness, he has been
twice operated on within the last.
six months without experiencing
any appreciable improvement.
The greatest surgeons in Spain
and in other countries have ex-
amined the boy, but profess to see
little opportunity of doing any
thing to relieve him.
Queen Ena, the English-born
mother of the unfortunate child
and most beloved of royal cou-
SORTS, In heartbroken. From the
beginning she has cherished the
hope that science could find
way to correct the troubles which
have cruelty deprived Don
Jaime of the power Of speech and
the sense Of hearing. But nature
refuses to respond to the demands
made upon it.
The mother is not yet ready to
accept the decision of the sur
geons as final, and while there is
the faintest flicker Of a chance
she is determined to keep up the
fight, believing that in some way
and somehow, not now fOrseen,
the way will be found Of remedy
ing the sad plight Of the little
fellow. Don Jaime has now ar
rived at that age where he is be-
ginning to recognize that he can
not do what other boys can, and
looks longingln to his queen
mother to explain to him the rea-
son for it. This adds to. her
anguish and eart-burnings, and
has done much ITO keep up her
courage in spite of all the dis
appointments she has met with to
date. Meanwhile, the lights are
kept burning and the appeals Of
devout Spaniards for Heavenly |
continue necessarily. |

OUT OF GEAR.

Despite the boosted progress
that has been made in educational,
Improvement, there is general
complaint that the present sys-
tenn governing the public schools
is out of gear-that it stutfs our
bows and girls heads with theo-
ries and turns them out less fitted
to cope with the practical eXl-
cencies of life than they were on
entering school. The mere pol
ishing given to the pupils by the
academic course is not sufficient.
More practical teaching, such as
is now suggested by the domestic
science and agricultural depart
ments, is needed. Under this
head, the Trucker and Farmer IN
it's current issue has this to say
Educational systems of the
country seem to be entirely out
Of gear. The fact is that they are
behind the times. This is be
coming recognized on all sides
and there is evidence that there
will be a rigid overhauling soon
that will change them consider
ablN
"This is a practical age. Par
ents are finding fault with the
lack of practical results from the
time spept in the schools and col
leges, especially those supported
by the public funds. Today they
want to see the time of their chll-
dren devoted entirely to the par
ticular business the girl or the
boy is to follow in after days. LIZ
a bov is to be an engineer they
want his time spent with that
speciality alone as his study. They
think that there is no use for
Latin or for ancient history with
such a future laid out for the
youth. They are of the opinion
that a speciality well learned IS
far more useful than a smatter
ing of lot Of things and nothing
done well.
Probably the greatest obstacle
to change Of courses and the
Of the useless is the
attitude of the teachers or learned
professors, who despite the tend, |
ency of the age still fail to rec
Ognize it's force and continue |
with ancient policy that should
have been obliterated half a cen
turN ago.
"What the country needs to-
day instead of Yales and Har
wards with their old time curric-
ulums, are schools devoted to the
demanded by the
present times. !"

The jury condemned the negro to
death by hanging. He had plead
guilty, but the judge refused to
accept that plea. If it had been
accepted he could have been SEN
