THE BOSS OF THE HOUSE
HE SUPREME OOURT of Ohio has decided, unanimously, at
that, that a man who has become a husband is the sole dictator of his
home, even though the title to the realty and to the bricks and mortar
thereon may have been placed in the name of his wife. It has gone
farther and held that ander all circumstances and conditions it ie for the busband to say who may and who may not spread their legs under his mahogany,
and that when he says his ‘mother-in-law is to ba taboo, why taboo she is*
Whether the Judges went directly to their respective homes after handing
down the decision or whether they sat ap witha sick friend until thé blowing
over of the domestic storm ie not material.
The whole ruction, says the Cincinnati Oommercial Tribune, came from
the fact that 6ne Oscar Green, of the fighting couaty of Erie, gave notice to his
mother-in-law, Mrs. Martha Hibblethwaite, that not only was her presence
undcsirable but would not be tole-ated ander the Oscar Green vine and fig
tree. Nevertheless, and notwiths'anding all of which Martha presented herself
on schedale time, bat was gently led away from the portals and her gripsack
deposited, like a Popalist, in the Middte of the Road. Then Martha had
Oacar arrested and fined, and joy was not uncovfimed in the Oscar Green homestead, for Oscar appealed to the Common Pleas Court, which affirmed the
jadgment, and then to the Supreme Oourt, which righted his wrong, laid it
down that map wae the Bose, and asserted the inalienable privilege of the
head of the house to be a house head and not a mere figurehead. Of course,
it took courage to doit. To fiy direct in the face of the mother-in‘law in the
abstract and collectively, as Oscar Green did individually and in the concrete,
required courage of the highest order, aod when the roll is called for distribation of the Carnegie Medals for Heroism let the names of the Justices of the
Supreme Oourt of Ohio, like Abou Bén Adham’s, lead all the rest. If, io the
fullness of time and when circumetances arise to warrant it, the Sapreme
Court will but take ap and pass upon the privileges of the husband with reference to the night key, anything it may do in trifling matters like the Brannock law or on questions of taxation will be looked apon with indifference.

WILL CHINA REVIVE?
T IS REPORTED on what seems to be good authority that the Chinese
government is seeking army officers in the United States. Encouraged
ty the example of Japan, China has decided to enter into the reform
business also. If it bein earnest in its present movement, the world
may be on the edge of most momentous events. Japan hes surprised the military experte of America and Europe by the success with which it has conducted warlike operations on land and 36a, ani ha3 shown that the Mongolian,
when properly trained and led, makes a most formidable soldier. There is no
reason to suppose that the Ohinese would be otherwise. Properly drilled,
equipped and commanded,a Obinese army should be fally as formidable as
the force of the Mikado, and as China is far mora populous its strength
should be proportionately greater.
It Japan with its comparatively small p»pulation can with little difficalty
overcome the Ragsian fleet and drive the Russian armies before it, a new Ohina
could force the Russians back of the Ural mountains and hold all Siberia.
Probably even the British would have difficulty in retaining possession of
Indla, and it Is within the range of possibilities that China might make iteelf
master of all Asia.
Such are the possibilities, but fortunately for the world, not the probabilities. Ohina may revive, may adopt modern metbods and profit from modern
{oventions, but there is little likelihood that euch will be the case, All indieations point to the dissolution of the empire. China’s conservatism is 60
great that sudden changes cannot be expected, and sudden changes are necessary if the empire isto be preserved. If delayed Many yeare, China will be
dismembered and all chances of revival will be lost.

Mr. and Mre. George W. Ray and

Yesterday the people of the country
