WRITER in the North American Review holds that as a rule families are too large to admit of parents discharging their full duty to their offspring, in view ‘of the right of the child to the best opportunity and equipment for the battle of life that its parents can possibly give it. ; This has not been the popular belief. On the contrary, there has been complaint that the disposition is not to raise large families, and that this tendency should be com batted. The “Review” points out that the large family is generally found among the poorer and less intelligent classes of the population who are responsible for burdening the community with the expense of caring for thousands upon thousands of defective and dependent children. It jis also held that the injunction be fruitful and multiply applied to different conditions from those which prevail among us, and that we have reached that point in history when the quality of our people is of more importance than the quantity. That is true: When we read of the crartioally, imprisoned and half-starved twenty thousand little children work. ; ing long hours in the cotton mills of the South, and of the thousands of boys, who ought to be in school, laboring on Minded Children is full to bursting, and that there is a long list of applicants; when we read the reports of children’s protective societies, and learn from them that there are some 4000 children in this State whose condition calls annually for the interference of these organizations to protect these little ones and their human rights, and when we examine the reports of the juvenile correctionals, we are impelled to believe] . that this writer of the Review’ s article. if not wholly right, is partly so. It is certainly true either that” parénts do not perform their duties to their children fully, or there are more children than can be cared for by parents, or there is misfortune in ihe conditions surroundings the dependent and defective classes against which human provision has not been made. yo rryraernd GEORGE ROGERS CLABM. MOVEMENT is on foot to erect a monument at Clarksville, Ind., in memory of General George Rogers Clarke, who broke the British power in the West during the Revolutionary War. Doubtless this movement has been suggested by the novel, “Alicé of Old Vincennes,” which has called the attention of the public mind to the eminent services of a long neglected hero. ‘Clark died in poverty, a soured and disappointed man. In his old age, tired of waiting for the government to requite his services and recompense his expenditures, he drowned his sorrows in drink. But his giving way to this weakrfess cannot detract from the glory and honor of his campaigns in the Indian country west of the Alleghanies and north of the Ohio. ‘ There is no more stirring chapter in history than the story of General Clark’s march with a handful of men through the wilds of Indiana and Illinois; how he won the assistance of the French colonists, cowed the Indian tribes and captured the chain of British posts reaching from Lake Erie to Kaskasia on the Mississippi. Clark established the authority of the Continental Congress over a region as large as France, and he secured the western border from Indian attack while Washington and his ragged soldiery were battling with the British armies in front. But for his bravery, military genius and address, the close of the Revolution must have left the British flag waving over the entire region west of Pittsburg lying between the Ohio and Mississippi rivers and the Great Lakes. Clark impoverished himself and exhausted his personal credit to provide funds for his operations. Yet when peace came, all he got in return was a vote of thanks from Congress. He was unable to keep his promises to the Indians, or even to his own gallant followers. Years afterward Congress made him a grant of wild land and voted him a jeweled sword, He had no means to develop his land and parted with it for a song to keep the wolf from .the door. When the sword Congress voted was presented to him he threw it scornfully on the floor, saying: ‘When the country needed a sword for its protection I fntnished one, and now when I ask for my just dues Congress sends me a sword.” George Rogers Clark is past rewards or wrongs, but his the time that tried men’s souls. It is proper that his fame and exploits should be commemorated in a fitting manner, any and it is to be hoped that the movement to erect a monument will not be allowed to fail. } announced later. “A RAGING STORM. very Heavy Rainfall and considerable Damage Done. ays Toleg Killed in Wreck: 3 soci Or., diets 26—The AtNous. day night at 8: 15 o’clook over the OreThe storm continued all of last night and today without abating and the fall of rain was the heaviest that has been recorded in this city for several years in the same length of time.
