differences and agree upon a ruler capable Of bring

JEFFERSON'S TACTFUL POLICY.

But they were in a hopeless minor
ity.
Even Mr. Jefferson's attacks upon
the judiciary. that last stronghold into
which they had been driven failed to
bring on the storm they wished for
The process of impeachment was Ac-
lively set afoot. that same year 1908
TO effect the removal OF such federal
judges as made themselves most OBJ
noxious to attack
The Democratic leaders of the House
announced IL as their theory of I'M
parchment under the constitution that
II was not a criminal prosecution but
only process OF removal It's
ground. they said. need not be any
crime or legal misdemeanor. Such
acts sufficed to support It as made the
Judge called in question an instru-
ment of opposition to the course OF
the government
A decision declaring an act OF Con-
gress unconstitutional would support
IT, II must be considered a means OF
keeping the courts In reasonable har-
mony with the will of the nation.
Here was enough and to spare TO
feed the fears and the rising anger OF
the Federalist leaders.
But Congress itself declined the
theory.
Judge Pickering was removed from
office because Of gross irregularities
OF conduct: but Judge Chase was &C.
quilted. despite his violent PARTISAN
ship outspoken from the bench.
The Senate would not Dust merely
for opinions held. and the courts were
safe.
The FederaiIst leaders found. more
over. that their own partisans. upon
wnom they had thought that they
could reckon. gave them no counte-
nance II was impossible TO arouse or
alarm them.
Mr.. Jefferson had proved no mon
ster, after all. but an amiable and at
tractive gentleman. graceful in con-
ciIiation. and apparently honest IN his
desire to serve the whole country
spite Of what was said against him.

AHR JEFFERSON had given the
lWI country its first taste OF his
real quality in action.
He was Democrat. a peoples man.
upon conviction. genuinely and with a
certain touch of passion: but he was
no lawyer.
He stickIed for q strict construction
Of the constitution only when ne
thought that a strict construction
would safeguard the rights of SOM
mon men and keep the old Federa,ISt
theories of government at arm g.
length; not because he disliked to see
the country have power as a nation,
but because he dreaded TO see II put
in bondage TO an autocrutic govern
ment
He wanted as little governing from
the federal capital as might be: but
as much progress az might be. to.
and as much access of power and of
opportunity to the people as a body
of free men. unshackled by any too
meddling government.
ii was his weakness 10 think II safe

but the very gate of revolution for
those Wild were not Democrats. II
only Democrats led, the good sense
Of the country would correct the evil
OF construction when IL should pro-
duce 81 effects!
In the older and more stubborn Fed
erslists IL naturally bred a sort OF
madness to see Mr.. Jefferson turn
loose constructionist to do the very
things which they most dreaded IN
their political calculations.
In New England 1t seemed 10 many
who were high in the Federalist coun-

great field of expansion should be
opened at the very doors OF the South

The great dental congress in San Francisco
called our attention to a subjec. that ba. hcen
sadly neglected in the past and that is getting
more and more attention, particularly from our
educators; Once, perhaps not very long ago,
II we had been told that there was a direct reia,
ton between teeth and education we might have
been tempted to smile Now we know that the
edueatoIs first concern is with the health of
pupils and that neglect OF teeth is in itself tcg-
lcct OF health. So it was not surprising tbe atber
day that, at the dental congress, a strong feeling
should have been expressed in favor of making
dentistry means Of protecting the children in
lists would be an important part OF the teaching
body, not only caring for the teeth of the Children
but instructing children in methods of self-pro,
tertion.

When Henry James, the novelist, was in this
country few years ago, among the many things
that impressed him there was one that seemed
OF teeth among the people that he met. He
had returned here from long stay in Europe,
where teeth were often woefully neglected and
as coming from the United States. The COM
plments paid Americans by this sharp observer
were unquestionabiy mcrited by those well-to-
do people that he was mainly thrown into con-
Der Of people led by their poverty and their lack
OF training to neglect their teeth, sufferers from
disease themselves and the means of spreading
disease among others. For Of the most obvious
causes of infection. it should be borne in mind. re-

The Washington herald., 1915-10-22

1t is appalling to think of the unnecessary suf-
fering that results from the neglect of teeth In
some instances, 1t is true, it is due merely to
thoughtlessneSS or to dread of the dentists chair
In most instances. on the other hand, it results
from poverty Several OF our more cnterprising
cities have established free dental clinics, where
the patients pay for the material only or pay not
at all. There ought to be clinics OF this kind in
every community And there ought to be similar
clinics connected with public schools The
early care Of teeth may save teeth for lifetime
and be a means of maintaining health and useful
ness. The public expenditure instead OF being
loss would be an immense gain. In this respect
we are far behind Australia where the school
children are regularly examined, special attention
being paid to their teeth, their eyes and their gen
cral health.
The Washington herald., 1915-10-22

Among all the lessons taught in the public
schools there is none more important in its effect
on physical wellbcng than the lesson of tho .oo,h
brush. Nevertheless. even now, in large number
of schools, it is altogether neglected. There are
other lessons that go with ii, including niastca-
tion which gives exercise to the teeth and stimu-
lates the flow of saliva so essential to sound d.

that to him Of the saddest sights in the world

the resistance OF nature and wonders why there
is not even more sickness among the young, even
while realizing that there is already an inexeusable
amount

1t is not enough to have good teeth 1t is
essential to know how to use them and how to
keep them in good condition, a simple enough
matter when it is understood and relocated to
