The degraded child-life that has been uncovered in Son Franclscco, and In our next-door neighbor, Portland, within the last few weeks, has both a certain cause and points as certain a moral. The cause is the shameful "dragging up" that too many parents among us practice with seemingly no regard for the future of the family or the sacredness of the home. This is no fancy,' but a fact A parent believes a child so honest that he may handle money uncounted, yet wonders that the child forgeti the value of prop erty and the meaning: of property right Others do not stop to notice whether their children's thoughts flow in pure or Impure channels, whether they read help ful or demoralizing books, whether they meet good or bad companions. Yet they call their erring children unworthy of them. Everybody knows such oases and recognizes the evil. Parental responsi bility is a commonplace of moral teach ing which, like many another axiom of duty, meets with general acceptance. To call attention to It is to run the rUk of advocating a- recognised truth, 1 ut there is here no danger of preaching In favor of a universal practice. Many agencies are at work for the up lifting of the masses. Fathers and mothers are being Instructed in their higher duties to their children, and chil dren are taught to be Industrious, sober, cleanly and honest. This ettort is Hie work of society to ward off Its own de struction by the Improvement of its worst elements. But when tbe better elements In that society becomes careless of per petuating their own virtues, the utility of missionary work becomes doubtful. If the educated families are too absorbed In their own pursuits to train their children properly, the general welfare Is seriously threatened. Criminals can be kept In order, poverty relieved, dangers external and Internal can be averted so long as the moral fibre of the well-to-do and well behaved body of citizens Is preserved. How It educates Its children Is something more thun a question for the home and the pulpit. It Is a question whlcn con cerns the state. Altogether too large a proportion of tlio worthless and criminal population springs not from a criminal ancestry, but from respectable families so careless, so foolish, so material that they take no pains to guard their chil dren against early growths of tendencies to evil.. CARLYLK'S CENTKNAHYV One hundred years ago today Thomas Carlyle was brought Into a world he did his full share to astonish, entertain, per plex and confound. Beyond the opening of a show of portraits and brlo-a-brao at his old home, no notice of the tact Is to be made on the other sldo of the water, where but a few weeks since the air was full of Keats' centenary., It Is the rule often proved In history thut in proportion as men make personal stir In literature during their lives tliey make less after death. Keat :vas almost nobody while he livedo -Year by year Ills place In the sAilfiiUton and worship of inQnJlld-.s more assured. Carlyle dur ' "Ing his life was as conspicuous hnd as forceful a personality as Humuol Johnson In his day. With his death his fame was bound to decline within that domain where the' only test Is not personal im prcsslveness but the enduring quality' of the written word. Hud time required any artificial aid to settle Carlyle more speedily Into his due and abiding estate, the brutal course of his executor, Froude, supplied what served effectually to dis illusion a generation. Nevertheless, even with time, the fame of Carlyle cannot fade. It rests upon a body of powerful and permanent work, Informed with surpassing graip of Kreat events, authentic In what purports to be merely the Judgment of a fallible human being and sincere in Its loyalty to the author's perceptions and convictions. After Froude. the lnslnore, the untruth teller, shall have sunk Into the neglect due to history written according to the ethics of the counterfeiter, and Ravels depleted with lofty disdain of facts, Carlyle will bo road for iho splendor of his dramatic sceiics -as witness his French Revolti lien and for the tender ness of his sympathy with lowliness and love witness tlio essay on Durns. An earthquake In Consiuntinoplo Just now, If It were severe enough, would clear the political atmosphere for the lime being, calling the truce of Clod among the Infuriated factions and enforcing It at Uast upon such as were burled if Its ruins. There has been enough scattered sehmlc agitation In the vicinity during the last year to lay In the dust the dome of Sophia and the crvscenta. temple and palace If it had been concentrated upon them. Relief from critical social and t'oittt. ftl conditions la not always to be i x;, eti J from sn opportune earthquake, but Hi thing nilirht happen, and If Con-i-'..iiiltuiH were to drop out of sight be r,i uh the water of the Bosphorus, as 1 . ;.n ,ne rtiil beneath the floods of the ' i it wcold extinguish a lot of polltl- ' '. ' .'. - ;!"! rivalries old and rooted' . ' t iiU as the hills, and mlfciit bS Productive of snltttarj' consequences all round. It has been the thrbno and fortress of tnlsrulo ulmout since sweet Europa's mantle blow unclasped at any rats, since It first up-, ptared in hlotory. Dut It will probably continue In its place in splto of all forms cf cosmic agitation, as it has done for so many centuries, though it Is likely to change tenants now und then In the fulifre, as In the past. 6uc!i a change Just at present appears rather Imminent, but political weather signs over there are habitually misleading, and the threatened storm, black as It looks, may blow away. It Is not often that voters have a chancj to honor with their confidence a man so thoroughly worthy as is Mr. Henry Nel son. Years ago, in the halcyon days of salmon canning, as bookkeeper And par tial manager for the West Coaut Packing Co. and the Fishermen's Packing Co., his worth as a careful, honest man of busi ness was fully proven. These two In stitutions were the most prosperous and progressive of all the cooperative cainer les, and a great deal of this success was due to his care and foresight. His famil iarity with his profession enables him to systematize and reduce to the simplest form the clerical work and accounts of any employer that seeks his services. His long residence In this city, his fidelity to the highest Interests of the Republican party, during all of that time, and his present position as a candidate without solicitation, all combine to make him worthy of any honor that may be bestow ed on him. The books of the city of As toria are In a condition which is the nat ural result of incompetency. The present Incumbent has never attempted to better tholr condition because he didn't know how, and for that matter no man who has ever occupied the position has really been capable of performing ' its duties. Mr. Kelson will work as faithfully for the city, as he has worked for private in dividuals, and, what Is more to the point, he knows how to do It. His opponent does not. When Osburn heelers solicit you for votes ask them If they can say a word against Mr. Nelson's ability, or hgalnst his reputation. Ask them what krhd of service they think he would render If he were elected to the position of audi. or a id police Judge. Then vote accordingly. The fact has been established beyond ar gument or question that Dr. Alfred Kin ney, C. J. Curtis, and Kleber Osburn, have formed a political combination with the object of electing themselves to office re gardless of the fate of anybody else on either ticket In the field. No trick will be overlooked by this Trinity of Ignor ance, during the next 1ve days; no argu ment will be too coarse to use in the at tempt to gain a few paltry votes. There Is one consolation. Standing together, they will go down together. We will give Mr. Osburn from now to the day of election to present to the pub lic a tilal balam a and a balunco sheet, showing the onditljn of the olly's af fairsnot half a dozen meaningless rows of figures thrown together, but a correct and complete trial balance and balance sheet. Of course he can't do it, but we would really like to have him try. Just for the purpose of showing the public how near he comes to being a bookkeeper, After Mayor Kinney got the railroad (at Flavel), and a saw mill (at Flavel) and a flour, mill (at Flavel), and an ele vator (at Flavel), he can take Osburn and Curtis along with him and start up a lit tie political party of his own. Then they will be able to get Flavel incorporated, and pass a charier through the legisla ture. Just think, what a sweet thing, what a poem In blank verse, that charter would bel The Trinity of ignorance three wrong men gono worse. ALL THE EXERCISE YOU WANT. The Latest Invention a Bicycle That Makes No Progress. With the aid of a new Invention ou can run a five-mile bicycle race or a hundred miles, for that matter In a room five feet square. The new device Is the sta'lonary bl cyole. The bicycle portion of the ma chine is Identically hTsame a the ordi nary wheel, but It is mounted on sup ports i t hlch clear the wheels from the RTSuhd. To the wheels Is attached an Instrument which records on a register adjoining the machine every revolution All the rider must do Is to mount the wheel and work the pedals. So many reovlutlons make a mile, tnd that Is all there Is to the machine, althouhg It Is quite an ingenious Invention. The rider Is not compelled to pace any one, doecn't have to turn corners, nor need he fear collisions or a fall. All he must do Is to work his feet, and though he may run any number of miles, when he Is through he will not have moved an Inoh. HAD A GENERAL IDXA. (Chicago Tribune.)
