ENFORCE EXISTING LAWS. The large amount of joy riding and the many aecidents which result from the overspeeding of sutomobiles and therefore lack of control has stirred up the people of Boston and viclnity to the organization of the Highway Safe- ty league for the purpose of stopping the auto speed mania.

Mrs. Merriwid had - fallen into a chair, overflowed it with limp arms and drooping head; her eyes were closed languidly and she gasped faintly for breath. Only her naturally blooming color was reassuring. “All T want is air,” murmured Mrs. Merriwid, faintly. “Fresh air and raw onions and ungrammatical language.

DISPLAY OF WEAKNESS, President Wilson held to his an- nounced declston to sign the sundry civil BHl and it has now become law three months and & half after Presi- dent Taft vetoed it, with explanations by the present executive, who consid- ers it contalns an unjustifiable rider, but the -appropriation was necessary. It is the tmportance of the bill. which caused.ihe president to afix his sig- nature, and that it should not be for- gotten is the reason for attaching the rider to this bill. The most important ones and invarigbly the necessary ap- propriation bills are the ones to which the riders are fastened for that very reason that they will go through on the strength of the bill. Tt 1s the vetoimg of such propositions and not the g to them which is golng to stop the practice of encourag- ing “rider” legislation. President Wil- son has displaveq a weakness Yather than strength in his attitude concern- ing the matter. Even though the rider can be circumvented through other funds which are available for uphold- ing the anti-trust laws against the la- bor tmions and the farmers, he has yieled to a practice which should be discouraged, even though congress passed it over his veto. Riders should be frowned upon and such legislation should be made to stand upon its own feet and be passed on its merlts, but the acceptance of them with the admis- sion of unjustifiable legislation only In- vites a repetition of past performances in this regard. CREWS AND COACHES. Marked is the influence which the coaches of the crews in the varlous colleges Nave upon the men and the results of the intercollegiate races. Not only s it the training which these men give the crews, but it is the ateady ap- plieation of the same metheds during their years of training until they are thoroughly imbedded in the minds and actions of the rowing squads. Crews become automatons Inspired by the directions which have been drflléd into them by their coaches until as the New | York Post says: “The men who rowed in the boats on the Thames and the Hudson come In for comment only as to the degren of success with whi they mechanically applied the coach’s ideas. Since 1900 Cornell has won the Poughkeepsie race ten times, confes- sedly becanse of Courtney. When Cor- mell fafls to win, Syracuse leads sumably because of Ten Byck. bly it is the mere monotony of Cor- mell victories against which a mnon- Cornellian rebels, but one sometimes wonders what a boat race would be in which the men were not buried be- neath the technique. As a mere nov- eity, the experiment of a race between coachless crews, trained under ' an elected captain who himself sits in the boat, would be of interest. This might be applying I. W. W. principles to the highly organized game of rowing, but, Ike the I W. W., it would be exciting.” Without the benefit or the influence ©of a coach or a determined Stroke, a crew would be in much the position of the participants in a tubrace. The crew is the reflection of the coach and his ideas. George W. Perkins 1s complaining because he has not been rewarded with a title the same a nadians have received for doing such work as he has. There's no telling what Roose- velt would have had to provide him with had his fight for the third cup of Coffee been successful. - 1t is generous but not complimentary fo American business for Dr. Muller fo tell us that “the United States not getting its share of Brazilian trade, In fact it is gotting hardly any,” Cold facts such us these ought not to be allowed to exist long. TWhen an official declares that a woman's clothing could be crowded into a pint measure it is not sur- that some cities are recogniz- ng the need of protecting women from themselves. There iz an exchange of eompliments the governor of Mew York which of some of tha cheice bits of uation fails to improve. As long as it is not the fauit of the present laws it is hard to understand how more laws will serve to improve the situatien. What the organization needs to do is to work for the enforcement of- the existing regulations. If the auto drivers who persist in disregarting all bounds of reason, causing injuries, and death, were given the same treatment as other viglators of the law, instead of having thejr actions laughed at or winked at, the situation would soon clear itself: and in this both the offi- cials and the court have a well de- fined duty. Until the inefficiency of existing laws is determined additional legislation is simply a waste of effort. PUBLIC OPINION'S CHANCE. Those who are watching the eper- ation of commission form of govern- ment have their attention glued -upon Jersey City at this time, the largest city in the east to adopt this form. At the present time that city of 268,000 is concerned with the enforcement of the law and at the outset Sunday liquor selling is the object of attack, the saloons having been shut up Sun- day for the first time in a long period of vears. In repect to a state act the new commissioner of safety ordered the saloons closed and the police to see that they observed the law in that regard This is of course nothing more than could have been accomplished under the old form of government. The law has long existed but it has been en- tirely disregarded and it remains now to be seen with a new order of things how long public sentiment will give it support. If through- the new system the city has placed men in power who have the inclination to see that the law is observed, regardless of political or vice influence, Jersey City has done one of the best things in its history. The success of this recognition of the law and the putting on of the lid de- pends upon the amount of favor it re- celves from the people. The best form of municipal government can only re- flect the sentiment of the citizens and whether Jersey City favors the com- mendable course which has been taken will soon be determined through pub- lic opinion. CALIFORNIA’S POSTPONED CASES. Cabinet trouble is beginning early with the new administration but the serioueness of it will depend upon the promptness and decisiveness with which the president acts. The situa- tion which has developed Is an un- fortunate one involving as it does the department of justice and notorious white glave cases over which Califor- nia is much concerned. It is but nat- ural that there should be a prompt trial of the cases and If the statements of the United States attorney proper- ly set forth the situation the depart- ment of justice should be equally in- terested in prosecuting the cases and not endeavoring to bring about a de- lay, which is so often perilous to such cases, Whether the officials in Washington acted without giving due . considera- tion to the importance the cases, from political influence, Or failed to heed Attorney McNab's warning be- cause of conflict of authority may be unearthed in due time but it is ap- parent that the department of justice ought to give worthy consideration to its representative on the ground rather than to influences which may be at work in behalf of the defend- ants. Perhaps too little importance | has been attached to the matter in Washington for it is evident the order does not reflect the feeling in Call- fornia. There appears to be reason for finding out the exact cause of the posinonement and the establishing, if possible, its justification. EDITORIAL NOTES. It is a lucky thing for President Wil- son that he doesn’t have a poet laureate in his list of appointments. On to Gettysburg is the appeal which brings back memories of half a cen- tury ago to the Grand Army men. Bryan's unreserved endorsement of the currency bill ought to help to unite the party in behalf of the measure. This 18 the very time of the.year when the deficiency test should be ap- plied to the sidewalks and the remedy applied It isn't Friday the 13th, but every pleasant Sunday which is being crowd- ed with deaths from accidents and drownings. The state reformatory is a. credit to Connecticut, but it will be a greater credit if it accomplishes what it is intended to. Boston has removed its “keep off the grass” signs in the parks, believing it is better to sacrifice the grass than the lives of children. Those California cases which the de- partment of justice seeks to postpone are not of a character which should be subjected to delay and be over- 1ooked. Happy thought for today: The fact that world beaters in the steamship line are being sent here doesn’t make it any easier for some people to cross the water. plans promises to be sent all askew if the president's sacrificés are lived up to by the lawmakers. It 1s a strenuous but interesting pace which he 13 setting.

He meant to be very kind, too.” “He admires you very much” Aunt Jane remarked. “I_know it, Merriwid. said Mrs. “He's given me to understand that he | does and.it's something I can’t quite explain to myself, because I'm not 150 years old and I haven’t got an ances- tral aquiline nose or a knobby therax and - dngular elbows.

Incidentally, it shows that other rallroads than'the New Haven have a fashion of indulging in tactics which are calculated to arouse the ire of the public.—Meriden Record. We are inclined to belleve that the ' coroner's_recommendations concerning women . drivers were induced by ‘the general assumption that man is the | stronger sex, bunt the driving of a modern automoblle Is child’s play so far as physical strength Is concerned, are other qualities are infinitely more important—Bridgeport Telegram. President Wilson's bold aggressive- ness on the tariff and currency ques- tions is in marked contrast to Roose- velt's timid avoidance of both. The latter was sure of himself only on moral questions, which offered oppor- | tunity for stirring denunciation and appeal. But economic questions call for very definite ideas and specific treatment.—Waterbury American. We do not belleve President Wilson Is right in his premises. We do not belleve that the period of restricted credit which he justly apprehends will be elther unnatural, unreasonable or unnecessary. Finance is no such fool as to cut off its own nose to spite its own. face, so long as finance is repre- sented by loss or profit to the men who speak or act for it.—New London Telegraph. If there should be a decrease in the number of bonfires on the eve of July Fourth, it will be difficult for some people to see in it a great public loss. The permission of bonfires is a sus- pension of the law in the first place, and it promotes lawlessness and gen- eral disorder in other respects. Some day we shall become sane enough to walt at least until daylight on the Fourth before beginning the racket, and the suspension of the bonfle will help as greatly as anything in that direction—New Haven Register.
