PENALTY OF ELECTING FREAKS
TO OFFICE.
To municipal, county and State offi
ces, there are at times men elected,
whose reason for being elected Is due to
some personal idiosyncrasy.
This individual trail, whatever it may
be, gives its possessor some peculiar
fascination, and men will work to secure
such a man's election to office, regard-
Ices of every other qualification neces-
sary to be possessed by an executive in
bucIi office,
Eitreme frankness In manner, blunt
oulspokeness, a rugged honesty of ex
pression, have often, carried men into
public office, who had do qualifications
for administering the duties of the office,
neither had they executive ability In the
smallest degree.
It Is this Individual frankness, which
will cause a community to force into
public service a man, whose official
career will cause every voter to curse
the day they voted for such a man.
The people of Michigan, today, are ex
periencing this reactionary feeling of
electing a freak to office, in getting by
actual results forced upon them, and
feeling the force of these results,
through the public actions of their Gov
ernor. As a potato grower, Governor Plngree
of Michigan, seems to have established
himself firmly in the affections of the
voters of his community and. State,
going by cas"y stages, as tbe affection
of tbe potato lovers increased, from
one public office to another, until be
reached the Chief Executlreshlp of
Michigan.
It Is not specially noted that Gov
ernor I'lngree had other genius, except
tbe ability to get good and large potato
crops.
This however seems to have been all
sufficient, to elevate hlu, through the
voter.
Tbe special freakish trait developed
In Governor Plngree, has been bis free
and unrestrained pardons and paroles to
criminal, under power of his office,
these averaging as per reports, one
release tor every four days of bis
official career.
In Ibis list of paroled 144. commuted
or nardoned 118 convicts, there Is no
discrimination shown, as pardons were
given to all kinds of offenders.
Protest by the Press and the people Is
laughed at by Governor Plngree, who
threatens to release one or mora criml
nals each day during the few remaining
dais of his term of office which ends
this year
And fortunately for the people of
Mlchlt-sn the time Is abort, bat more
fortunate will they be If they learn In
tbe future to avoid electing single Idea
men U public office.
And there are other people and ooev
mnnltlee who ceo lake warning by this
eieanpla la Michigan.

"I have always envied those men who
ait in front of livery stable," said a cit
izen who admits that he is constitution
ally lazy.
"That seems to me a beautiful life. It
must be one long, sweet song, us tbe poet
puts it. 1 have never known any of them
personally," be continued, sighing, "but I
h.ive watched them all my life, and they
fill me with a yearning to be a livery sta
ble man. When I was a boy, I had to
pass a large livery stable on my wny to
school. It had an immense double door,
which was never closed, and inside was a
cool, dim vista of stalls und buxgien in
rows. Four men were always He.ited at
the threshold, tilted bark in cane bot
tomed chairs. They were large, well fed,
contented looking men, and what im
pressed me particularly was their (lit- of
placid abstraction They never said any
thing to one another, but sat there calm
ly gazing into space and chewing straws.
I remember distinctly that the sight of
them always filled me with rebellion
agniust work and made my school tasks
seem all the more abbon-out. 1 bad an
almost irresistible- inclination to chn-k
my books into tbe gutter, seize a cane
bottomed chair and a straw and become
a livery stable man myself.
"I have never got rid of that feeling,"
the lazy citizen went on, lighting his
pipe, "and the strange pint alsmt it U
this: In all tbe years that have gone by
that group at the big door has never
changed, and, moreover, it isn't peculiar
to anv one Ktnble: it is common to theiA
nil. Go where you will, whenever you
encounter a livery stable you will invari
ably find four large, well fed, contented
looking men tilted back in cane bottomed
chairs at the entrance, chewing straws
and gazing into space. They nlways look
exactly alike and never get any older or
any younger. It is my private belief that
they are immortal, and 1 have never ask
ed any questious because I don't want to
run the risk of shattering a beautiful
ideal. What is it that Uret Ilartc says
about San Francisco
"Serene, immulalile as fate,
Thou slttest at the western gate.
'That describes them exactly, and I
am certain the poem must have been in
spired by a California livery stable.
Wars may rage, and thrones may decay,
and Mac may annex tbe Filipinos or tell
them to go to thunder, but nothing will
ever disturb the grand serenity of th:it
group at the front door. I think It very
unkind of fate that I should have be
come a hardworking professional man. I
would have made a superb ornament for
one of those cane bottomed chairs."

HAD THE LAST WORD.
The Secret of One Old Lady's Visit to
Another,
One of these old ladies lives on Wood
ward avenue and the other on Jefferson,
and the latter has much more than an
average share of this world's goods. Mrs.
Woodward is being visited by a grand
daughter, whom she called into the sit
tine room while the rest of the fninil
were nway. saving to her after tbe old
fashioned manner:
'fall up Mrs. Jefferson, present her
with my compliments and say that I
uld esteem it a great favor If hI:c
would send her carriage for me. I want
the pleasure of a short call upon her."
The protest against gnuidmii s ventur
ing out, for she has been a seiin-iiivuli.i
for several years, met with a v:ivc of tbe
band and a "please do as 1 bid you."
Tbe carriage cnine. grandma was safely
placed inside, and in less than two boms
she again occupied her cay chair.
"There," wilb a sigh of relief, "that is
done. It has worried me every day and

8PEAKIN6 OF LUCK.
A floartias; baa Deelaeea That It
lets Owl? la Heal Life,
'Tbe old saying that the odds era.
against tbe tueasvr' is firmly believed in
by nearly all gamblers," said a turfman
who prides himself upon having reduced
betting to a mathematical formula.
"The axiom is a good deal deeper than
Boat people suppose. Taken literally in
games of chance, it is false; applied to
human nature, it is true. Suppose, for
example, that two men pitch pennies.
The chances for heads and tails are per
fectly even, and it can make no differ
ence which of the players does the guess
ing. .Where the guesser appears to have
greatly the worst of it is in such a game
as faro or roulette. The effort to fore
cast each turn is apt to unsettle his
nerves. He gets irritated and demoral
ised! makes reckless bets, presses bad
luck and winds up broke. In fact, the
chief advantage of a 'system' for gam
bling is that it saves nerve force. The
bets are placed according to rule, and the
player and the game are ou the same
cold, mechanical basis. In playing the
races the odds nre seemingly 'against
tbe guessers for the reason that they
are influenced by all Sorts of hiuts, tips
and premonitions, mostly wrong. It isn't
really a case of guessiug, but a case of
misplaced confidence."
"Do you believe in luck?" asked one
of the listeners to the foregoing.
That depends upon whether you mean
theoretically or practically," replied the
scientific turfman.
"Luck is something that doesn't exist
except in real life. Tire late Professor
Proctor once delivered a lecture in Phila
delphia on the 'Mathematics of Chance'
and proved conclusively there was no
such thing as luck. Afterward he took
a dice box and attempted to demonstrate
the fact to some skeptical sports and
went broke in eight minutes by the
watch. There is absolutely no reason
why people should have streaks of good
or bad luck. I can demonstrate to you
on paper that the thing is impossible,
and you can demonstrate to me by ocular
evldence thnt it happens every day. So
there you are.
"It's a funny fact, by the way, that the
two principal 'systems' nt Monte Cnrlo
are based on diametrically opposite the
ories of luck. One is called the 'ninturity
of chance.' To illustrate: Suppose red
turns up three times in succession. Ac
cording to the system, the chance of it
appearing agaiu is greatly diminished aud
grows less with each repetition. Conse
quently the player bets on black. The
other is the 'system of runs.' Its votaries
hold that a color which has once 'repeat
ed' is apt to keep on, nt least five or six
times in succession. Each brand of cranks
proves its cuse by tbe daily record kept
year In and year out at tbe Casino. 'You
pays your money, and you takes your
