In the downfall of Tweed of New Yerk only one was convicted; in the Lexow investigation, none of any importerce, but in St. Louis 13 per- sons have been convicted, and more are to follow. The gxeat- est vaiue of the exposure of mupn/cinal crime has not been the punishment of criminals, but the awakenixg of the public con- sclenve tu the enormity of bribery.”’ + Se POST-DISPATCH CHRISTMAS FESTIVAL FUND. °* Post-Dispatch readers will note, in today’s news columns, the total amount received to date for the Christmas Festival, to be held at the Colisoum, and for the Christmas dinner to be sent to the invalid poor at their homes on Christmas day. Last year the total cost of the festival, including the dinner at the Coliseum, with its entertainment, Christmas tree, toys, etc., and for the 1500 baskets, each containing a substantial and tasty Christmas dinner, that were sent to the invalid sick at their homes, was $4368.23. The contributions to up and including Sun- day were about $3200. On account of the increased cost of all supplies this year, and the additional cost of work that had to be done in preparing the Exposition and the Coliseum for the Christmas Festival, the committees in charge of the festival cannot expect to reduce the total cost below that of last year. Ample provision must be made, not only for the dinners, festivities and gifts at the Ex- position building, but for the hundreds of baskets to be sent to the homes of those who cannot be present in person and who would otherwise have a cheerless day in their poor homes and tenements. Magnificent efforts have been made by the citizens and ladies who are interested in the festival; the ladies’ committees es- pecially, and the children who have contributed, have done and are doing, excellent work. But the sum that will be required, in order to carry out all the plans that have been decided upon is not yet in the hands of the treasurer of the fuad. The Post-Dispatch believes that it -will be raised There must be no disappointment. Every man, wom- an and child m St. Louls not otherwise provided for must be given Christmas cheer as promised. In order to make sure of «lis, those who have lists to fill out shoula attend te the matter at once; those who wish to give should do so promptly. Only two days remain in which to com- plete the fund. Prompt and iiberal contributions are necessary to make the Christmas Festival the success it should be. _-_ = % a i With 3,260,000,000 books now on hand in the world, and the supply. increased annually 75,000,000, Mr. Carnegie will have no trouble in getting his orders filled. * — '—-— = FOR WIDER TIRES. The suggestion made by the Civic Improvement League that the city ordinance relative to the width of tires on vehicles be more rigidly enforced should be acted upon. It is said that we have the best ordinance in the country on this subject, but that no effort has been made to enforce it. The taxpayers will be called upon to expend large sums of money for the construction and improvement of streets, in preparation for the World's Fair. But much of this expenditure will be wasted if the streets are allowed to be torn up by heavily-laden vehicles equipped with narrow tires. The matter can easily be controlled by refusing license to’ own- ers of vehicics who persist in ignoring the law. It is to the in- terest of all the citizens that this law should be enforced. A minority of vehicle owners has no right to mulct the whole com- munity ir order to save a few dollars for themselves. All classes should be united in the effort to get good streets and maintain ihem. —---———-. -- #00 — ~ an spl.e of prosperity, trouble with thieves and burglars has been general over the United States, says the chief of the Wash- ingtcn*police department.

As for the snobs, they are without sensibilities. Mr. Roosevelt is now criticised for pardoning Bank Wrecker Marsh, who was a fugitive from justice for seven years and who had served only four years of a term of 12. Pardoning bank wreckers is certainly worse than splitting infinitives. Tom Reed was never influential with President Harrison. Said the great Speaker: ‘I had only two enemies inthe state of Maine. One of them the President appointed collector of Port- land, and the other he pardoned from the penitentiary.”’ The world is continually reminded that Calvin made it very hot for Servetus ‘The fact has even got into some of the Sun- day-before-Christmas discourses. a = = * ——_— POST-DISPATCH SNAP SHOTS. freemen or are we slaves?

Debt Collection by Force and Arms. To the Editor of the lost-Dispatch. Allow me to answer F. G. F., who wants to know the difference between the nations holding up debtors with guns and warships and a private citizen doing likewise. The reason for it is because the nations are under a system of monarchy, where the a few coal barons can starve a hundred thousand men, women and children into submission and go scot free. But if a private citizen was to starve his child he would go to jail. The only remedy for it is the collective ownership of the earth (or the natural re- sources), and the machinery of production, distribution and exehange, lishing a system of industrial equality that would be in uniformity with our sys- tem of political equality, where the masses rule over the minority or the individual. Under a system of monarchy the king is law: under a system of equality the law is king. Cc. SCHEFFLER. St. "Luts. Henpecked. To the Editor of the Post-Dispatch.

Still, if you travel and observe, from the mouth of the Danube to the Golden Gate, you will find most men wear- ing a coat with a useless collar marked with a useless V-shaped slash and dec- orated with two useless buttons at the small of the back and one or more use- less buttons at the cuffs. The collar. the slash and the buttons are there tn an- swer to no rational need; it is not a com- mon climate nor a common racial need of protection against climate that they repre- sent, but a common civilization whose form and ritual they mutely confess. Over this entire area those who aspire to be of the Brahmin caste deck their heads for wed- ding, funeral and feast with a black cylin- drical covering suited, so far as we can discern, neither to avert the weapon of ad- versary or the dart of the rain, nor to provide a seat whereon man may sit and rest himself.

WRAY. s - st y- Ee he might not have lost two straight falls e and a $100 side bet in his wrestling match a with George Baptiste yesterday afternoon at the South Broadway Athletic Club. At as _ game manner, for it was by means of leg E ne - work that he was first brought to the can- was and then made to turn over in surren- '. Im addition to having legs, Donnelly was Pe foolish eneugh to get on to the mat with a - ‘pair of arms and a body for Baptiste to ’ take hold of and torture and twist incon- -‘eelvably.

In every respect he was the weaker man, ay 7 a H, Pe Re Be was succumbing to two crotch holds did ‘he assume the aggressive. . Those 30 seconds cost him one, of the falls.

Don- while he was not at a great disad- age in weight, was built more like a “boxer than like a wrestler. His muscles were long and flexible, while Baptiste stood up rugged and gnarled as an oak. BETTER $100 THAN $60. Deep through the chest, narrow of loin and ey powerful of leg, with nearly 20 years of * wrestling experience, Baptiste appeaered to have every chance.

TOLEDO, O., Dec. 22.—James J. Corbett has offered his services as head waiter at the Salvation Army dinner to the poor. John L. Sullivan will also assist. We protest that James J. Jeffries is no champion. We hesitate to think he really is, when we take him at his word. James got mixed up with a copper miner out at Butte, Mont., Saturday night, and after four rounds had been fought the ref- eree gave the decision on points to the miner. Later James made the remark that Mun- roe, his opponent, was a dub. We would like to inquire what that makes out Jef- fries to be. To be a dub is bad enough, but to be whipped by one—! Munroe, it is said, has eschewed pugil- ism and gone back to the mines. Jeffries might go with him. SCHREIBER NOT “AT HOME.” A sad refrain again drifts in from San Francisco. This morning we are in receipt of private information from Ingleside that the books are suffering terribly and Bar- ney Schreiber is one of the heaviest losers. It is a most remarkable circumstance that every time Schreiber goes to booking away from home he loses his safe full of money. For anyone so intelligent as the master of Woodlands we think he is a long time tumbling to the fact that. home, sweet home, is the best place for him, for he never fails to win here, Tf you are a baseball magnate and want players wait awhile.

Dr. Hyatt is a conscienceless prophet. It is qa pretty hard-hearted man who will take the bread and butter out of a man's mouth, but when it comes to steal‘ng dog biscuit from the kennel it is time to draw the line. For some time Dr. Hyatt has persisted in declaring rains for Sunday afternoon. Or- dinarily we might expect fair weather to follow, but the doctor persistently refuses to follow his habits and insists on having his Sunday predictions come out all right. Right here is where the dog biscuit comes in. Dogs must eat, even the dogs who chase rabbits at Delmar Park. If you have ever chased rabbits yourself you know it is a rather har(e)assing occupation and is fol- lowed by an inordinate desire to have con- nection with a solid substance. But in order to eat, the Delmar dogs must run. They are among the few self- Supporting dogs in the world. When it rains nobody pays to see them perform. Hence, no dog biscuit. The future is very plain—no dog biscuit, no dog. No dog, no coursing, and no coursing will throw several idle sports on the community. If we were the dog we would know | what té& do. Dr. Hyatt has trousers and on &@ part of them he is accustomed to sit. We would make him dine off the mantel for some time to come, and perhaps might reach his conscience through his trousers. Capt. Adrian Anson, formerly of basebal! fame and now the conductor of bowling alleys in Chicago, is confronted with a His pin boys have all gone off on a strike. What he wants to know is how he can “spare” them. As this is the first instance of a ‘“‘strike’’ in Chicago bowli annals, it is encourag- ing to note that an improvement must be taking place n the sport up there; But that doesn’t supply pin boys for the captain. We respectfully suggest that he secure safety pin boys. Chicago bowlers are discussing the advis- ability of using the loaded ball. We are not up on the bowling question to the ex- tent of giving advice on the subject, but judging from some of the bowling we have seen in St. Loujs the plan olight to be put through. A ball properly charged, that would explode at the moment it reached thed end of the alley, ought: to insure much- needed strikes. If.you can’t win that way, get a pair of loaded dice and throw for first place.
