Dentists Are Lined-Up for

WASHINGTON, March 20.-Jus- tice Department agents are quietly enlisting the aid of the nations dentists in one phase of two-fold drive for quick Identification of public enemies"
 Representatives of the Federal Bureau of Investigation have been making contacts with dental socie- ties, urging their members to keep uniform records of work done on the teeth of patients.
 Such records are as accurate as fingerprints in establishing identity, agents say, They have succeeded in identifying several dead criminals through this means.
 The F. B. l.. has also moved to prevent public enemies" from slip ping through the laws dragnet by mutilating their fingertips.

poll and told how the City Council
 called the election of A. J. employees
 to determine how many wanted to
 return to work after being petitioned
 by citizens of the community and
 some of the men. The Examiner questioned the Mayor as to the Councils authority in the matter and Mayor Goldstein explained the election, he believed, could have been held as an informal matter but that it really was an official election provided for by statute. City Attor- ney Faulkner, who followed him on the stand, read that portion of the Territorial Session Laws of 1883 which give Councils authority to deal with matters of public welfare and explained it was his opinion the City had due authority under that statute but that there was nothing to hinder the Council from holding the informal election if it so chose. Mayor Goldstein explained that the cost of the election was paid from the general city funds.
 Record Destroyed
 The records of the city poll have. been destroyed, the Mayor told the Examiner. He explained that when it was decided to sponsor the cleo ton, he and the Council had prom ised it would be absolutely secret and that after the tally had been taken he personally burned the records in the burner at the City Hall so that there could be no chance of any lists of employees or ballots with names on them becoming known. Clifford Mason, former A. J. employee, testified today that he dropped out of the Union in July of 1884 and was not in good standing on May g, 1885, at the time of the strike. The Union ledger, introduced in evidence, revealed that he has been listed as paid up member long after his card showed he had quit paying dues. Allegation has been made throughout the hearing that some of the men claimed by the Un- ion were not actually on the rolls when the strike was called.

We can now see how all his ideas and measures
though dealing apparently with quite separate
matters, all hung together on his fundamental
belief, like beads on one string.
If proletarian city masses Of propertyless wage
earners to be dangerous to the possibility OF
self government, then the problem Of land was OF
prime importance. When Jefferson destroyed
entail and primogeniture in Virgnia-that Is the
tying up of large estates through Inheritance and
their passing to the eldest son-he did not do so
from mere humanitarianism or radicalism. He
did it to prevent the closing up Of vast tracts
from the ordinary man, because if the ordinary
man could not get land, then the proletariat
would begin to FORM Jefferson was not attacking
property. He was trying to insure 1t by having
it widely distributed and so making all men in
terested in its protection.
So -
Again, Jef1ersons lifelong devotion to the
cause of public education was directed to the
same end-the building up Of safe and sane
electorate. His system however, shows his atti-
tude toward the common man. He planned for
lower grade schools which should be free to all,
not only boys, but girls as well. Every one he
believed, was capable Of receiving the rudiments
of an education, and would be a better citizen
for it. This, then should be open to all and a
charge on all But just as he knew that all his
crops were not alike, so he knew human capacity
was not.
Therefore, above the lowest schools he planned
able from what he called "the trash" From the
lowest schools, . certain number Of promising
scholars were to be sent on free to the next
higher and from those again q smaller number
to college.
His plan called for the various grades of
schools with a college at the top, and public
library supported by the State in Richmond. In
this way. he felt on the one hand the door of
opportunity would be opened to all worthy to
pass it, and on the other the State would derive
the full benefit from all the intellectual ability
in it, whether found among rich or poor. The
plan was never adopted in America; but in France
it was, and. Prof. Chinard thinks from Jefiersons
writings.
His Bill for Religious Freedom and his lifelong
struggle for freedom of speech and press both
formed part Of his same effort to build up an
educated, honest and self-respecting electorate.
It Is noteworthy that although sensitive In the
highest degree and suffering from the vilest
ISLANDERS In the press while President, he never
moved against q single one of his slanderers, be-
lieving that freedom of speech was one Of the
great personal liberties and also Of the strong
anchors for q self-governing people, and that
truth would prevail in the end.

we're human rights and liberties Of such trans
cending importance that they should be removed
from the power of any government to destroy
them. The absence Of such Bill OF Rights
was his main objection to the Constitution before
such rights were presumably safeguarded by the
amendments of 1890. The Constitution itself. he
believed, should be amended frequently, but not
for light or transient reasons.
As result of the foregoing analysis of Jeffer
sons real beliefs two questions arise. Is any
party or statesman today genuinely Jenersonian?
What would Jefferson himself think under pres
ent conditions? The party which claims him as
its founder is the Democratic. but We may ask,
in view of the administration of the last three
years: Does the Democratic party disbeeve In
the spoils system? Does it believe that govern
ment should be frugal In expense and as limited
in scope possible? Does 1t believe that govern
ment debt should be kept low? Does it believe
that veterans organizations should not be en-
couraged, that currency should be kept sound
that the government should be kept out Of bank
ing and that the value of money should not be
deprecated? Does it believe in free speech and
free criticism of government policies and
officials?
The answer is that in three years about 100000
new employees have been added to the Government
pay rolls, and the civil service has been struck
a deadly blow. That the scope Of Government
activities has been widened as in no other such
period of time and the debt raised to $3l
oOo, 900, while the President blithey contemplates
the possibility Of $40, 900 900 900. That Congress
voted an extra 81. 500 600 900 or so to veterans
who had already received about $lS500 100000.
That the dollar has been devalued by about 40 per
cent gold contracts repudiated and the basis laid
for that imitation which Jefferson most feared.
That opposition to or criticism of the Government
and its oficials has been so treated as to make
many honest citizens afraid to speak out. 1t Is
impossible for any one who knows Jenersons
mind and does not merely repeat a few phrases,
to believe that he would approve any OF these
things.
It Is difficult to say what he would approve In
this America Of ours. which has reached the
stage of ndustrialism, with all its consequences,
that he felt would spell the downfall Of self
government In such an electorate as We now
have, it Is pretty certain that he would not ap-
prove of universal higher education; Of direct
election of the higher officers of government such
as Senators and President: of pressure groups ana
mail order government: Of most Of the things
we accept and practice, well as those mentioned
in the preceding paragraph.
To predicate what he would wish in the way
of measures is utterly impossible; but 1t seems
fairly certain that neither the statesmen nor the
party which will mouth the word "Jehersonlan"
in the next campaign have the slightest justifca.
ton for doing so.
