Cursory examinations, ‘held after the gamps were ‘subdiled on ‘the two battleships, divulged the fact that both fires were due to crossed wires. _ Coming at this particular time the fires on two of our battleships are most serious.

The state is ‘prohibition ‘and. therefore, everg city in it is supposedly prohibition; but last month it was announced—in a New York paper—that three new bars had been opened in the Maine city: It is‘a well-known fact that no diffi- culty need be experienced in getting any number of “nips” in.

What Portland, Ore. is just now asking of Portland, Me., is to please let the younger ‘city know some of its tricks of evasion and how it can prohibit liquor and have it too. And the two Portlands are having great fun:over this topic. A Fortunate. Life. (Brooklyn Standard-Union.) “Brilliant and, honorable vears’ was the felicitous pnrase by which Editor Mitchell of the Sun charac- terized the forty: years' service of his universally esteemed = contemporary Editor Charles R. Miller, of the New York Times, fittingly celebrated in its spacious assembly hall by his com- rades and their guests, Forty years in any one station, is in itself mem- .orable, and when it has brought with it steady enlargement of influence and power, has commanded honor, love, obedience and troops of friends, the fruitage of sound thinking and steadfast devotion to duty, the result, is, in these days of forced draught and artiffcial deviopment, altogether wholesome and memorable, Exceptional and complete as the | personal achievement' is it, however, in the ‘con- | sideration of the larger aspects of | the matter. That Mr. Miller and his | coworkers have brought the Times to fts commanding position is great credit for them, particularly for the clean and highly 'honorable way In which they have done it. Better yet and of more public import and signl»‘ ficance is the demonstration that this ! is the kind of journalism which the real public really wants, and that the better the paper is, the more faith-| fully and courageously it sticks to its | legitimate business, a trustee for the truth, both in news and opinions foi all its readers, the better its readers like -it, and the more constant and unswerving their support. Speculations as to the future of! newspapers have tempted much dis- cussion and many ‘experiments. ~ It becomes daily more clear that Mr. Miller and the Times have solved what was, after all, never much of a mystery, and assured indefinite con- tinuance of the prospertty which they bushels.

Thera is a difference.—New York World. One of the relics of the reign of po- litical insanity in the pas. decade which remain as monuments to the madness of reformatory zeal that afflicted Congress is the process of physical valuation in which the rail- roads of the country are.engaged. The Interstate Commerce Commission has charge of the work under a special ‘s'ta,tute directing that it be done, but the principal burden and the bulk. of the cost fall on the railroads. , The worst of it all is that as nearly as re- flective intelligence can determine the $60,000,000 more or less will be prac- tically thrown away except for the academic interest which will attach to discovery and proof as to just what it has cost to give the country the great transportation system which it possesses and what, in accordanc: with any just metheds of computa+ tion. the railroads are worth.—New York Sun. Must Raise More Beef. (Seattle Post-Intelligence.) The American feed manufacturer's association, which has a decided in- terest in the increased production of cattle as farm crops, has decided upon a campaign of education to the farm- ers of the country on the advisability of turning greater attention to the production of meats. It has some facts to present at the start of this campaign which are of as much in- terest to consumers as they possibly can be to farmers, For example, the president of the association is able to show that with- in the past 50 years the number of bheef cattle raised for market in pro- portion to population, has declined fifty per cent. According .to census figures, sixty-six were finished and marketed for each 100 of population in 1200.. In 1914 the number was but thirty-six to each 100 population Unless the farmers can be induced to raisc more heef cattle, either there must be less beef eaten in the country or dependence will have to be had on foreign countries for the supply. The country may very well adjust itself to the ldea that the days of cheap beef have departed, never to return. The price of beef from this time forward will be regulated by the cost of production of beef as a staple farm crop. The unlimited free range has gone. The homesteader and the wheat rajser long ago took over the best of the old range. The dry farm- er and irrigationists are taking up what was left of the range. Within an appreciable space -of time the beef of the country will be raised and fed on'farms, on land highly valu- able for the production of other crops and the price will be based upon the cost of production under such condi- tions. . At present prices—and there is lit- tle prospect that they will ever bej much lower—there is money to be made in raising beef on the farm. | But it is a safe assumption that there will be léss proportionately consumed from tHis time forward than there, was in the past and that there will be tendency toward a closer approach te the Huropean standards of diet, in which meat is rated as among the " | luxuries to be enjoyed sparingly. WHAT OTHZRS sAY Vl'.";'l ‘on all sides of timely questions es discussed In ex- changes that come ro Herald- office: § Preparing Men to be Officers, (Waterbury Republican.) In order to.increase the number of reserve officers upon whom the United States would have to depend in case of a national crisis necessitating the AmMmediate raising of volunteer ar- mies, a military training camp for business, and professional men is to be established in Plattsburg, New York, from Aug. 10 to Sept. 6. For several years summer camps have been maintained throughout the country where students from various universities have received Instruction in military training under the im- meédiate supervision of regular army officers. The success attained = with these camps has led to the ‘extension of ‘the original plan to include men no cally voutnful and active. The course of instruction will comprise company and battalion drill, the mechanism and use of the modern rifle, in- cluding target practise, military hy- glene, tactics and strategy. Such troops of the regular army as may be available will co-operate in the military instruction and in the different field maneuvers, exercises and demonstration: These will in- clude exercises in the different arms, including the engineer, signal and medjcal corps, the purpose being to furnish the basic training for all branches of the land service, whiea can be supplemented later by special- ization according to the preference and_qualifications of the individual, S0 A& to give the men opportunities to follow the branches for which they may be best fitted. Maneuvers with regular troops representing the op- posing force will be held toward the end ‘of the camp. Several hundrea business and professional men; in- cluding a number of heads of- big en- terprises have signified their inten- tion of attending, and it is expected that this number will be increased to over a thousand.on the openihg day of the camp. It must be gratifying to the military men of the country that such under- takings meet with such ready re- sponse, particularly now when Ger- man methods are so generally resent- ed. It was Germany which first cre- ated the system of military instruc- tion designed to give the country a force of trained and intelligent men. Every student in the land was put through a course designed to fit him for military service in casé of nation- al necessity and ‘hence it is that, when war came, Germany was able to ‘be- gin at once with trained men because every reserve division had already been put through the elementary training which England found essen- tial before trusting ner recruits in the field. With 1,000 or more profes- sional and business men familiar witn the elements of military law in time of peace the coutnry will be better prepared than at any period in its history to make a determined defense from the outset. Bombs on Steamships. (Norwich, Bulletin.) The letter sent to'a New Orleans newspaper by the allegeéd partner of Muenter bears all the marks of being written by a crank, but it displays nevertheless the necessity of using every meang to guard against just such catastrophes as such madmen or sympathizers can cause. That it is a danger which threatens at every. steamship wharf is disclosed by the discovery of bombs secreted in sacks of sugar when the cargo of a vessel was being discharged at Mar- seilles. The purpose of such acts can- not be doubted and from the fact that such destructive - bombs can ~ be se- creted in the cargoes of freight ships it is apparent that the same thing could be done with passenger ves- sels. Regardless of the loss of life which wouid he caused should a ves- sel be lost at sea from such an fin- fernal machine it is plain that there are enough’ who are willing to un- dertake the job of placing them. There may be many instances when warnings are received of such dan- | ger that can well be ignored, but the Minnehaha and the Kirkoswald are instances which indicated that greater precautions should be adopted for the protection of the vessels against those who would sn:uggle aboard explosives calculated to blow up the ship. 1t is impossible to overlook the fact that while the damage may not be done until the vessel is well beyond the limits of this country it is none t=e less the fact that the. pla¢ing of such bombs aboard ships is a ser- ious crime committed here and every effort should be made to check it. The Lack of Moral Sense. (Brooklyn Eagle) Every little while cases from in- telligent and well-to-do families get into the courts which show so clear- ly the lack of moral sense as to lead one io wonder if there is such a thing as moral training in’ modern families. v, The case of the high school girl who stole from the. dressing rooms on Staten Island was one such. That girl’s room was stacked with plunder from her mates, and she was finally detected because she wore the hat she had stolen from one girl, fasten ed with a pin she had stolen from another, to a public performancs, where the owners of the property recognized it. There was nothing the matter with that girl's intellect; her standing in her studies was excellent. But her serise of right and wrong was simply non-éxistent, and she must have been pretty nearly free from parental control or she would have had to explain her too abun- dant wardrobe. This case at Sea Cliffe is even more striking for the utter lack of moral sense on the part of a young woman who was old enough to have run away with one man, to have:left him afterward, and be applying for m a divorde before ‘she picked up the Loy who stole to get money to run around-with her. And she says that &he "did not know that was wrong, while her “physician says that: she has the intellectual develoyment of « girl ot '15. He might have added that she has displayed the calculat- ing selfishness of a women of 30, and ,vhat her pictures, as reproduced in the newspapers, match that mental attitude more neariy than they do that of a girl of-15.

Good Business. (Collier's Weekly). “Americans have four great -and 8ood habits upon which their present Prosperity is established. These hab- its are: Health, habit, study habit. Work habit, and play habit.” ' That Is what Yozo Nomura, Japanese Com- Missioner to the Panama-Pacific Ex- Position, said when he returned to Yokohoma from san Francisco and reported to Japanese business men upon his trip. Yozo Nomura is, ob- Viously enough, a diplomat. With Americans, he continues, ‘“business is no longer exploitation, but service. The American principle is that busi- ness prospers only when it answers the needs of the people and enhances human happiness.” We don't re- print these compliments because they are deserved; they aren't. And yer, just after writing these words, we picked up a copy of the directions given to their employees by an ice company in the West: Be courteous. Remember, every iceman is supposed to be a thief until he has prqyed his honesty. And again this gleam of advice: If the iceman ““happens” to cut the piece a little short, he should confess to his customer “and then bring a laf‘er piece next time and draw her atten- tion fo that also.” Perhaps the Jap- anese diplomat isn't so wrong after all. “No longer - exploitation, but service. * * * " Think it over. Boys and the Playgrounds. (Justice Hughes of the United*States Supreme Court.) 1 do not know of any better way to teach a hoy to be honorabls and straight than to give him a chance te play with his comrades. 1In the playgroand he learns ' without any suggestion of rebellion against in- structions and precept and preaching. He learns it because he does not want anybody else to cheat him, and is ‘down” on the boy that does mot play fair. And in the long run, be- cause he is “‘down” on the boy thht does not play fair, he will establish standards of conduct which we must maintain in the community and par- ticularly in our- great cities. If there ix one thing that we need more than another it is the constant emphusis among. our citizens of that spirit of fair play, that willingness to give and take, that generosity in defeat -and that lack of sssertiveness in victory which we identify with true sport, and whicn is learned best of all in childhood upor the playgrounnd. In France. (Philadelphia Public Ledger). Pierre is digging down imto his hoard, buried under the hearthstone or tucked away in a bureau drawer, for the gold coin that he had put away and which his governmoent now asks him to give up in exchange. for paper. He loves gold and silver much more than he loves paper, but he also loves His country, and he is tramping into the branches of the bank of France with his. bag of specie in his hand and is taking the paper home. The bank of France in Paris has had to designate six additional tellers to receive gold and give notes. In one day the sums exchanged rang- ed all the way from $2 to $17,000 and there are long lines of people waiting to get into the bank. - It is a run in reverse—a run to get specie into the bank. The notes do not feel nearly so good in thé& French- man’s pocket, but they bear the state- ment that the exchange was made “for national defense.” The Rebel Yeil Still Heard. (Richmond Virginian). Small wonder the rebel yell was one was one of the most effective weap- ons of the Confederate army. It would strike terror to many a manly heart for which the leaden hail of cannon would have no terrors, The veterans love still to give their yvell. It is one of their most distinctive and expressive features at a reunion. Not applause, handclap- ping, stamping—just a yell that stirs your blood if it is for you, and chills your marrow if it is against you. The vell will live with schoolboys —rooters, - swimming-hole pairons and the like—but it will not be a military yell. - Only the confederate veterans can properly give the rebal yell. 1t should be carefully prac- ticed by the sons if they have the spirit of their fathers in them. Italy’s Fine Showing. (New York Evening Post.) Italy has now been actively ‘at war for a little more than a month, and the showing made in the time iz such as_to confirm the good. opinion of the Italian army which foreign military experts and service journals have ex- pressed. Having to operate in a diffic cult country, and against fortifica- tions long ago prepared, the Italian troops have made .steady progress both in the Trentino and in the direc- tion of Trieste. Already they have occupied and virftually anexed far more of the ‘“‘unredeemed’ territory than Italy was promised in: the last reluctant offers of Austria. report the spirit of the A UNUSUAL OFFERING 4 O BED SPREADS Special Prices for This Week Only.

Holt, or Muenter, bought dynamite by wholesale. He traveled freely over long distances by rail. Who sup- plied him with the money?
