noing AVIAN With Character

Doing Away With Character
Capt. w. H. Myers, who sits in
the Virginia assembly, has gone.
to the rescue of the men in his
state. The men, it seems, are
endangered by the styles worn
by women. The captain is out
after the styles. He wants it
made a misdemeanor for a wom-
an to wear a skirt which does not
come within four inches of the
ground. Three inches of throat
may be displayed, he thinks,
without menace to society, but
there must be no transparent
skirts or shirt waists.
Of. course, we cannot know
here in Chicago much about the
susceptibility Of Virginia males.
Perhaps they should be protect
ed by such regulation, just as
they are protected from rabies
by regulations which make OBJ
ligatory muzzles for dogs.
The theory is entirely in line
with our legislation in other
matters. Our wise Legislators
constantly see the defects of
human character. They have set
out to make character necessary
by removing all temptations.
One need not have any power of
seIf-restraint if all opportunity
for employing it is abolished by
law.
There are many advantages in
such action. The chief, perhaps,
is that it relieves all of us from
responsibility about our conduct.
If we go wrong it is because
we have been tempted, because
the system is not perfect, be-
cause all temptations have not
been removed. We can attribute
= all moral laches to heredity, in
sufficient nourishment, or play
: ing pool. 1t puts us in the po-
sition where we can call our
Z selves victims.
The struggle will be a long one.
{ Take, for instance, the case in
!, Virginia. The good captain
= makes no provision for tran
sients. How can he leave the
susceptible Virginia male a prey
: to the lures of such costumes as
! may pass through some such CEN
: ter Of iniquity as New York?
Will the state provide regulation
gowns for visitors, to be put on
like the overshoes tourists wear
! when they go through European
palaces.
! And there are other troubles
q Virginia men ought not to be ex.
4 posed to the l%icentious and wan.
q ton winds. Even a gentle zephyr
unless properly controlled, might
o work havoc of a terrible kind OF
any street corner. But we shoulC
n persist. Character apparently i!
If irreparably faulty. The road tt
perfect conduct obviously is b!
% ~abolishing rather than resisting
&c temptation.@Chicago Tribune.

nrovince of the Bureau to see
that those who seek citizenship
are as they represent themselves
TO be. i. e., persons of good mora
character, having the requisite
United States and State resi-
dence, and that when once nat
uraIized such candidates secure
what they have actually paid foT
that is, unimpeachable citizen
ship.
The matter of citizenship is
one of increasing Importance
particularly where those Of for
eign birth are concerned. Fol
instance, in case of war betweeT
the United States and a foreign
power, the subjects Of that coun
try resident in the United State
at the time, would under on
laws be debarred from naturaliz
alton during the period of such
war. Again, property, as vel
as civic rights depend very often
wholly on the citizenship status
of the person concerned. The
children of those who are foreign
born are especially concerned, as
the naturalization of the parent
confers citizenship upon his mi
nor children who may at the time
be dwelling within the United
States. An American woman
who marries an alien thereby be-
comes an alien, and she is de-
pendent upon her husband be-
coming naturalized to regain her
citizenship. The laws Of the
United States, in the protection
accorded by them to the individ-
ual, and his property, recognize
no distinction between the native
and the naturalized. Declare.
lions of intention, however, DE-
not confer the benefits and pri
vileges of citizenship, and accorC
, their holders little voice in tn,
affairs of this state.
The number of aliens who havI
filed their declarations of inten
ton in this county, is out of al
, proportion to those that hav.
actually applied for naturaliza
. ton. 1t is believed that if tn
native, as well as naturalizec
citizens Of the county woul
+, take a friendly interest in thei
alien friends and neighbors, i'm
pressing upon these alien friend
and neighbors the duty they ow
: themselves, their families, an
adopted country to complet
their citizenship, that the cond.
ton of affairs above referred
would be speedily remedied.
4 is possible also that those VIII
4 have taken no steps at all to 81
|, cure citizenship, though maxim
Il this country their home, and d,
j irving their substance therefron
