TO TAX BACHELORS.

The question of taxing bachelors Boston yesterday. The propos ostion was to tax all unmarried men over thirty-fve years of age who could not set up as a defense that they were not of good moral character. One of those who favored the bill was woman who said among other things that the reason for BOStOn's failure to get the recent ''fashiOn show was that Massa chusetts did not have any first lady of the land, tho governor
 lieutenant governor and speaker of further averred that the deplora ble condition in the Bay State in regard to marriage led her to start a matri- monial bureau last year and since then she had supplied 134 wives for western men, each man Paving fur nished certificate of virtue. When the committee heard this statement it voted to give the petitioner leave to withdraw It was a sensible act.
 The idea of imposing a penalty on men for not marrying simply fur nishes amusement for a legis lative body and for every one else who has a sense of humOr, while one might well inquire what kind of homes the 134 have who obtained husbands through matrimonial agency. Men who take wives under such conditions and women who take husbands With- out knowing who they are or any thing about their character other than a certificate, from a commercial institution, cannot be said to be very particular and if the marriages turn out to be unhappy then it is only what might be expected. Such bills as this which have found their way into the Massachusetts legislature more than once are to be classified as freak bills and ought not to be dig nified by being given a hearing.

CONFERENCE OF CHARITIES.

The Connecticut conference of charities and correction which is to De held in Stamford April 1920 is awakening more than ordinary inter- est this year because of the action that may be taken on matters now pending before the legislature and the influence that action will have on those measures The proposed state farm, reformatory for women, an in stltution for refractory tubercular patients and a new state school for inn beetles are among the reforms pro- posed. The latter is a new idea for the reason that these unfortunate people have heret ofore been provid- ed for, but the number has increased so rapidly that there are accommo- dations now for only about 300 when there are approximately between 5000 and 4,00O to be cared for These questions have all attracted public at tention and they are of such a char acter as to require serious consider ation.
 There can be no disputing the fact that the matter of caring for defec- tive children should be promptly con- sidered. Those afflicted little ones can have much done for them by proper teachers in the right kind of an institution and there can be no mistaking the fact either that such an institution should be provided and maintained by the state It is a legiti- mate expense, and as for the other matters they have been before the public so long that it would seem as if every one ought to know their needs and the importance of prOvid- ing them. It was only recently that special commission recommended that certain county jails be abandoned except as place of detention for those awaiting trial, and there could not be any stronger plea for reform
 made. The only obstacle in the way of the institution of these reforms is the scarcity of funds The states war chest is in bad shape just now.

PERIODICALS SEIZED.
POpc's Prayer For Peace Suspected
 But Matter Is Finally Dropped,

Paris, Feb. 2, 5:30 A. M.-Period- icals containing the text of Pope Benedict's prayer for peace, which he had directed should be read in all churches on Feb. :, were seized on Sunday by the police of the Depart ment of the Seine, according to the Figaro The incident was soon set tied, however, after explanations had been given the authorities by Cardinal Amette Archbishop of Paris, and the embargo was withdrawn
 Tho motives for the seizure were not announced, but it is believed, the Figaro says, that the government feared the expression of hope for an early peace might be mi&interpreted by the public and have a depressing effect upon opinion.

of any intelligent committee to even give them public hearing
 For over two centuries the people Of Connecticut Have expended their effort and their money for the build ing up of a system of higher eduGa ton. The increase of facilities in the high school, especially as offered by such a trade and industrial and con- mercial school system as we have Ill New Haven. has brought numbers into the largest institutions of the sort in the country. 1t i2 unwieldly, it is eN penslNe, but it is increasing worth while. 1t is a school of the people. It offers freee of tuition the education the children of the people need to fit moreover, the best sort of fitting for entrance to the higher educational in sttutiOns
 Are we now to cut off this facility from the people? That's what the paSsa ge of either of these bills would am ount to. It would bTa turning of the educational clock back at least fifty years. It would make Connecti- cut the laughing stock and the re- prOach of the nation. It Is not to be outside of the state hears that there is such unintelligence in Connecticut as to propose them

nin." for instance. Twenty years later, seeing the child grown to man. hood, you discern that his family has never permitted him to forget the classification you put upon him, and you turn aWay-with a flush of guilt nlantling your features
 Listening to an orc hestra play a Russian piece, you label it delight ful, and thus reveal that the com poser did not mean what he thought he meant when he tried to depict in tone a raid of soldiers on a peasant cot.
 A set of travel adjectives is as necessary to the enjoyment of an old house or cataract or a cave, as are the funds for getting to places and tipping the guides. It is more essen tlal than a camera.
 No nation displays greater skill in the application of the adjective than does America when it goes abroad ThirtY-three thousand square wards of the exterior of St. Paul's have been covered with adjectiVes by American visitors. The gOndolas of Venice are invariably adorned with American ad- Jectives down to the water line. One of the few places in Europe not thus GecOTated Is the sultan palace Tn Stambou1 The Sultan. through some prejudice, refused to admit visitors from the states to his chambers, and when the Young Turks took posses sion the inner walls were found in a queer, unfinished state.
 The adjective user Is one of the builders of the age. Some of the best lessons in construction experienced by the erectOrs of temples and city walls and jails in the old world have come from discerning Americans Many grave defects in celebrated edificeS have been pointed out by them. The lack of proper fire exits in the Vati- san: the failure to provide life pre- servers on the NiShni-N -NOvgOrOd bridge over the Nolga; the need of better paving along the Appian Way. Europeans are too close to these things to see the faults in them. But an American, armed with an adjective kit, can see and label them as they are.
 Thus the adjective is helping to lift the race.

DISEASE APPEARS
 AMONG OUR QUAIL Permits for InpOTtationS From
 Mexico Cancelled.

Washington, D. C., Feb. 2.-The third known outbreak Of quail disease has been discovered ny the Bureau of Animal Industry in quail sent for examination from the National Zoo logical park. These birds were re- ceived a few days ago from two of the principal importers in widely separated parts of the country. Most of the quail now on the market are imported from Mexico and are en- tered at the port of Brownsville, Texas. Under these circumstances all outstanding permits have been cancelled and further importations suspended for this season.
 Quail disease, a highly infectious malady, to which all our native quail are apparently subject, was discoye cred in 1907 and was traced to a number of states A second outbreak oc- through the suspension of importa- tion of birds from Mexico from which most of the supply of birds was drawn. Last year practically no birds were imported from Mexico and no quail disease was reported. This year limited number of birds have been permitted to enter at Brownsville subject to quarantine maintained through the cooperation of the Bio logical Survey and the Bureau of Animal Industry. All birds which were suspected of having the disease were examined at Brownsville 1r forwarded to this department, but not until January , were the first undOubted cases of disease detected. Game commissioners and sportsmen who are interested in the introduce tiOn of quail or who may have pur- chased birds for restocking this sea son are requested to advise the de- partment if any of the birds are known to have died from disease of any kind. As measure of precau- ton any birds now in captivity should be kept under close conservation for a period of at least ten days and in case any of them die the bodies should be forwarded to the Bureau of Animal Industry of the Depa rtment of Agriculture for examination.

Rum in Politics.
Chicago TribuncD

Party government has ceased to have existence in Illinois so far as the laWmaking establishment of this great comm OnWeulth is concerned Legislators now are wet or they arc dry. They are no longer republican, democratic, progressive, etc., etc. They are for he demon or they are against the demon, With some slight sentimental attachments to old party names.
 1t is this slight sentimental attach- ment, seemingly, which is causing all the difficulty in the selection of a speaker of the house of representa- tives. If noses could be counted frankly on the real issue there might be a division which would give d majority and elect a speaker, but mem bcrs arc sentimental and posSi- bly, supersttiOus.
 They have regard for the folk at home who elected them as republi- cans. dem OCrats, or DrogressiVes and for the sake of these folk a pretense of party responsibility and party al legiancf is maintained.
 Rum will not permit tho house to organize on partisan lines and parti- sanship will not permit it to organ ize on liquor lines Rum republicans would be more at home with rum democrats and dry democrats would be more at home with dry republi- cans, but the hypocrisy of statecraft will not permit this honest division to take place, and consequently we have the deadlock.
 These facts are beginning to be ap- preciated through out the state and the folk back home will soon under stand that an issue of considera ble importance in this state is the uues- tion of liquor interference in politics and government.

The Sailors "Supe1iority.'
(LOndOn TimeS.)

MT. Conrad, in his novel, "Chance," has a sailor who complains of the general incompetence of everyone on land. No ship" he says, "naVigat- ed and sailed in the lucky manner people conduct their business on shore would ever arrive in port" That is true, and sailors always seem to landsmen very competent They know what they have to do and do it.
 But the reason is, not that they are born cleverer than landsmen or even that they are made so by training, but that ttheir problem is simpler and clearer Their one business is to bring the ship safe and undamaged into port; while they are in her she is their little world and sets them all their duties. But we on land are in a much larger world with duties far more various and conflicting The sailor has to keep only his ship clean; and he does keep it beautifully clean; but we have to keep the whole coun- try clean, and that is a more difficult task and less we'll done.
 Again, on board ship, by necessity all relations are simple and well de- fined. Everyone knows his place anc rebellion is mutiny, an evident dan ger and sin. But on land relations are complex and constantly changing if they were not society would be dead-and a great part of the bus mess of a living society is to deal with this complexity and constant change. So the sailor. used to the order and simplicity of his ship dis likes and despises our most imper- feet solution of our more diverse prob lems; and that, no doubt is one main reason why he always wants tO go to sea again. It may be a hard life, but it is also q simple one. He knows quite well what it is to be d good sailor; but we on land are not so sure of what it is to be good cit izens, and we envy him his plain du ties and the simple, brave and resO- lute character which they form.

Oil Treatments for
 Stomach Trouble

A simple prescription made up of a com bnatiOn of pure vegetable oils is producing wonderful results for suf- ferers from stomach, liver and inter- tinal troubles. The remfdy, which IS said to have originated in France, where it has been used for years by the peasantry, was introduced into this country by George H. Mayr, a leading Chicago druggist, who cured himself of severe stomach, liver ana intestinal troubles by it's use. Those who have used it say the first dose Is sufficient to convince any one of it's remarkable merit, and that within twenty-four hours the sufferer feels like a new person. This medicinc which has become known as Mayr's Wonderful Stomach Remedy, is now sold by first class druggist everywhere. It is now sold here by Riller-Hegema Drug Store.
