Field Marshal and

 MMOW that France has revived the q rank of field marshal in favor Of Generalissimo Joseph Joffre on his retirement from the supreme com- mand of the military forces of the republic, army circles are speculating as to whether or not it is to be con- ferred on other distinguished men of arms or be restricted to the officer now honored. In Great Britain the dignity has come down from the time of George II who, in 1735, bestowed t upon the second Duke of Argyle. In recent years there have been as many IT dozen field marshals on the list qt the same time, although the greater 3umber have been royal personages xnther than military heroes.
 Until the European conflict broke ont Emperor William was, along with other monarchs, a field marshal of England. But one of the first acts of xing George after war was declared Was to strike the Kaiser's name from the roll. The Emperor had anticipated <his step, however, for on the day kegtilities began he returned his 1oton, the token of a field marshal, = the English sovereign.
 There are now only seven field mar 6hals in Great Britain, including the King, but after the war several com

 Election Betting

M1O more betting on national cleo
 The revised corrupt practice bill, which follows the line of Senator Owens original draft, and which is to be laid before the Senate today, will probably be passed in the closing days of the Sixty-fourth Congress. Such measure will be long step in the direction of a much needed re- form.
 Under the proposed restrictions in the matter of contributions to presi- dential and congressional campaigns ample money can be raised to carry on the work of the rival parties and give candidates a fair show.
 The republicans in trying to elect Judge Hughes collected and spent over $2,000,000 and the democrats spent upwards of $1,6oO,OOO in behalf of their ticket, but they collected only about $1,250,OO0. When Chairman Vance Mccormick closed democratic headquarters the finance committee faced deficit of s3oO,Oo0, the great CT part of which is still outstanding. Corporations are already prohibited from contributing to any campaign fund in national election, but the re- publicans have hitherto found way to get around the law. The bill now pending is so drastic that it will be we'll nigh impossible to evade it. It used to be easy for national cam paign committees to raise the wind when no limit was placed on contribu- tions. The republicans could always count on Wall street and the "inter- ests." But with a corrupt practice act Tn eIIect a greater effort than ever will have to be made to secure the bulk of the campaign money from the rank and file in small items. The democratic popular subscription fund fell far short of expectations last fall, but the people must be educated up to that plan.
 One of the best provisions of the corrupt practice bill is that which would make betting on elections and the advertising of odds felony. Mil lions of dollars were bet on the Will son. Hughes contest.
 The betting of hats and wagers of a few dollars on an election was never considered gambling; only little di-

FIVE PER CENT
CLAUSE BEF0RE:
SUPREME COURT
COURTS DECISION is INDEFINITE
QUESTION INVOLVES TREATY
PROVISIONS. OTHER NATIONS
ALSO MADE PROTESTS.

Washington, Feb. 23.-The so-called
"five-per cent" cases came before the
supreme court through a clause in the
tariff law which authorized reductions
of five per cent on duties on all mer-
chandise imported in American ships.
All nations with which the United
States has the sO-called favored ma.
ton clause in commercial treaties
protested against the provision as a
discrimination and a violation of
treaty provisions Nations which did
not have such treaties also made pro
tests, and the operation of the law
was held up while the cases were TAX
en- through the lower courts and up
to the Supreme Court.
Meanwhile, the regular duties were
collected, until the federal treasury
amassed between $2j,OOO,OOO and S3O..
100000 which has been held ready to
return to importers in case the court
decides the clause was invalid.
The twenty-five nations with which
49, United States has Commerce and
navigation" treaties guaranteeing reci-
procal exemption from discriminating
duties are; Argentine, Austria-Hun.
gary, Belgium, Bolivia, China, Colon
bia, Korea, Costa Rica, Denmark,
France, Germany, Great Britain,
Greece, Honduras, Italy, Japan, Libe.
ria, Netherlands, Norway Paraguay,
Spain and Sweden.
The most important countries with
out such treaties are Brazil Bulgaria,
Chile, Mexico, Nicaragua, Portugal,
Rumania, Russia, Uruguay, Venezuela
and Switzerland.
The discount clause, designed to
stimulate the American merchant ma
rine was a compromise between the
Senate and House when the present

At the wonderful age OF fifteen;

Little sunbeams at play
Laugh and then race away

At the world that you knew
Golden gifts held for you,
And each morn brought a new-found

What radiant dreams, Dear, were
yours
An. would one could dream them

But the rainbow must fade,
Must it not, little maid?--

And thus, Darling, lay down my pen
For with heart beating high
The child life must speed by
