pinned on the breasts of married
men in Chicago because a lesser
number of them have landed in jail
than single men, but they just made
the race by a nose and they are en-
titled, according to statistics, to no
such halOs as have been stuck on the
heads Of married men in Los Angeles,
where Police Court Defender James
Pope declared 80 per cent more bach
elOTs get in Jail than benediCts.
There were 1854 men in the
county Jail last year, and of these
1871 were married, leaving 5,783not
married. But hold! Don't jump at
conclusions! Of that lot of single
men there were 1,517 who were be-
low the manageable age, so they
have to be counted out, which gives
the married men a percentage Of
less than 10 to the better of the
bachelors.
Warden Will T. Davies of the
County Jail furnished the figures, and
in his explanation to a Day Book re-
porter of the reason for the slim per-
centage the married men have to the
good he didn't put blue ribbons on
matrimony, but offered logical
Observation-Disclosures path rea-
son for the single men.
THE statistics Of married and sin
gle men in the Gail in the past year
make it almost an even break, War
den Davies said, but in the cases
where there are more single men
than married serving time, as it true
in some of the prisons, it is because~E
a young fellow starts a career of
crime long before he is of a mar
riageable age. Many of them are
from IA to 16 years old when they |
commit their first offense. If the boy !
continues in crime by the time he. is |
25 he is probably serving a long SEN
tence somewhere and has served sew
eraI shorter ones between the time
he was IA and q, so that he hasn't
baaD in q DOSitiOn to marry.

MARRIED MEN ENTITLED TO THE BLUE RIBBON
BUT NOT BY A VERY BIG MARGIN

cry BIG MARGIN
| prisons are under 80 years Of age and
are undoubtedly single, but what
chance would they have to get mar
ried, even if they wanted to?
IF man who is in jail here want
ed to get married I wouldn't permit
it unless in a so-called 'bastardy
case where it may legitimatize a
child, and when these young fellows
are out Of Jail or prisons they do not
lead lives that give them any desire
for marriage.
"Of course, l am speaking of cases
where there are more single men
than married in prisons. The differ
ence in percentage here is too small
to use as any proof that marriage is
a preventive of crime, and I doubt if
the figures for a given year in Los
Angeles would show any such per-
centage as has been given for the
short period covered by Police Court
Defender Pope"
The reporter called Mr.. Davies at
tentiOn to the fact that the very few
marriedrmen who did land in Jail in
Los Angeles were without the re-
straining influence of children in the
home, but Mr.. Davies handed out
Some more figures that Offset this.
For the married men in the County
jail last year had divided among them
just exactly 2,164 living children.

The Heroism of Peace.

tfrou. Tic Boston Giob'I
Heroes Of peace can be found IN the street.
in tho shop. in the home. Occasionally they
achieve publicity; usually they do not. often,
when their activity is political or they seek
some great constructive ideal they achieve
publicity which makes them unpopular and
affords the opportunity for heroism which Is
not recognized as such until after they are
dead
Haywood R. C. Mott and Hugh ". Rice
ordcrlcs At the Boston city Hospital, have
received publicity, and their heroism is OF
the kind which Is easily recognized and CON
corning which there can never be any doubt.
These young men risked their lives tina;
DR.. Frank 3. Mallory. discoverer OF the scar
let fever bacillus. might experiment with 1t.
They allowed tho deadly germs to be placed
in their tousils in order that great work
for the benefit of humanity might progress.
The germs. instead Of the young men met
death. but an object lesson. we'll known 10
musicians. however. was public proclaimed
namely. that "a germ disease is not so dan
gerous in a healthy body. That the expert
ment does not prove moro did not dctract
from the heroism OF the youn. men.

"THE WARNING y
Responsibility Of the People as Great as
That of the Politicians.
The Editor Of The Tribune.

To tho Editor or The Tribune.
Sir: No thoughtful citizen can read the
Tribune's editorial Of to-day entitled The
Warning" and fail to appreciate the vision
and practical point of view which inspired II.
II is not only constructive, but remedial IN ITS
purpose; yet il seems TO me- IT fails to en-
phasizc az it might the larger and more
threatening cause. while II stands as com
positc picture Of effects.
II is natural and easy IN blame our admin
istrativc and legislative default in the prem
ises. and its written and implied dcnuncia-
ton OF our government can no doubt be fully
sustained and justified by the deporsble facts
in tho case.
The indictment should also include all cti-
zcns Of the country who, by their indifference
10 public matters. by lack of sclf-sacriiice
and personal initiative, have suffered the
spinclcss. cringng attitude and apparent i'm
policy Of the present Administration to stand
unchallengcd. thus by their own nsction and
silence giving their assent to It, and thus to
cowardce and neficency in high places.
II is the imperative duty Of leading men and
all men OF vision and practical sense TO arouse
themselves into serious political activity and
protest. and thus honestly and justly guide
state and national politics and legislation, a.
they have the inherent power and skill, as
we'll as the votes TO do, If put into action.
Because such citizens have not done so and
have failed TO register protest and disapproval
" Washington and all along the line condl-
tions such as this editorial illumines threaten
US.
We must thank God for the power Of the
press and for such editorial vision as this In
default Of individual initiative and action
which lies at the root Of the cause.
The citizen Of conviction and judgment who
selfshly fails to speak out in public and pr-
waite for fear Of being called crank IS as bad
a citizen as one who refuses TO join the firing
line when danger and duty call. The present
Administration we'll represents this vicious
and reprehensibe element in our country, and
by its delays reversals and platitudinous d.
plomacy exactly pictures the average indiffer
cnt and selfish and reprehensible public att
tude upon public questions.
The Tribune has proved itself to be the
public eye, the public ear the telescope to-
scan far and near horizons for the approach OF
bcnefcent or malignant influences. II IS one
instrument to shake up and wake up the
American men Of business and sense to active
participation in national affairs.

Fair and Warmer"

These rare and precious words have
been conspicuous on the billboards all
winter. by a grim and appropriate stroke
of chance. as the title Of roaring farce.
Blue, enwrapped, shiyering, coughing,
wheeling mortals. extremely conscious Of
their mortality, have looked in vain for
any such slogan in the weather report or
prophecy.
Perhaps now. at last. this dull slow-to-
start year will get under way. Nothing
has seemed like anything so far. The
Giants and Yankees opened the most fas.
and mysterious baseball season
in a decade without stirring anything like
a fitting war whoop. Golf greens have
been mere potato patches Of their forme"
selves; and nobody has had the heart TO
mention tennis A few red naples and
horse chestnuts and spears Of grass have
taken their lives in their hands and
dressed for spring. The world generally
has chung to its overcoat and waited. Al
most everybody feels little winter-killed
in spots. May the new sun start the sap
stirring in the driest of US.

Responsibility for the Irish Revolt.

Now that the ill-timed and futile up
rising in Dublin is represed and the rebels
for the moment have abandoned all hope
of setting up an Irish republic, the gov
eminent may turn their attention to that
obligation which the Prime Minister SO
frankly recognizes of conducting "a search
ing investigation into the causes of these
events and the responsibility for them.
The inquiry will be narrowed by circum-
stances which restrict the choice of scape-
goats. There are no generals or admirals
on this occasion who can possibly be
blamed for the course that was taken.
and the part played by politicians is well
enough known to the public generally. II
was the boast Of the Sim Fciners and of
the pro-German element in Dublin that
they worked in the open, and they were
right in holding that their strength lay in
this circumstance; but it is a circumstance
that will embarrass the government in any
attempt to evade responsibility.
For months we'll informed people every
where in Ireland had been warning the
government Of the madness Of suffering
sedition to be preached abroad everywhere.
Yet no effort was made to suppress the
agitators While Mr.. Redmond and the
Nationalist party were doing their best to
raise recruits. they got little or no en-
enlargement from the Chief Secretary for
Ireland or any of the ministers. Only a
fortnight before the outbreak in Dublin
"The Irish Times spoke thus Of Mr.. Biz
rclrs scandalous neglect of his office:
"There is no more disgraceful Incl
dent in modern politics than his alb
sentce tenure of the Irish Chief Sec
retaryship. He does not live in Ire
land: he only cares about Ireland as
the source Of his $4,000 a year; he
has not made two recruiting speeches
i'm ireland during the last twelve
months; his sole ambition is not to be
troubled with the necessity of making
decisions about Ireland Responsible
