We have had enough experience with such problems as would be en- countered in Mexico, and are bound to have them on our hands for many “ years to coms in the Philippines with- . out attempting any more, and Mexico would offer the same burdens iIf not woree than did the islands of the Pa- cifie. The poliey of this country is not to broaden its territerial limits such 2% would result through annexation and it isn't seeking to establish a pro- tectorate over that republic though it is anzious to encourage those people to follow out under its influence and agsistanes the good ideas and plans which have been put in operation im the Philippine: Ninety-five per cent. of Mexico’s pop- ition is flliterate.

In the course of a year there are many weak and amusing measures in- troduced in state and national legis- latures, but if submitted to popular vote there jg but little doubt that the . resolution which has been infroduced by Senater Poindexter of Washington would get the first prize as such. This progressive semator seeks the exten- sion of the thanks of congress “to Dr, Brederick A, Cook for his dis- covery of the nerth pole in April, 1908 and thet tho secrotasy of the navy-¥e directed to give Dr. Cook a gold medal in recegnition of hia services to scienge in making sald discovery.” It has been said that pregressive ig ‘as progressive -does, but the party will no doubt he thrown into a quandary as . to just why it shouid be made to i any such effert as that with Seen lanering | wowid ' E d § g %1 8 iésié S ] § g —— RESPONSIBILITY OF DRIVERS. Sunday with its delightful weather was just the occasion needed to mark the opening of the automobile trag- edy season and with three deaths and three badly injured New Jersey made A gruesome start. Speed and a rail- road crossing were the causes, but of upon the raiircad. It was one those instances slow down for a railroad:crossing the ‘Prakes had to be applied so hard and so quick that the car was overturned and sent down an embankment. 5 tylof hawing the car in control so that a stop could be made within a reasonable distance, or ‘proper respect paid to a zailroad cross- ing hed apparently not been comsid- ered, but the failure toido so is at- tributed . to the fact that a railroad erosses the highway' and, that a train was .approaching, a situation which <could be planned on and which should have been anticipated before the train beve in sight. New Jersey ‘has an unenviable rec- ord for auto eccidents, there being in that state last month elght deaths and # injured by amomobiles, and one kL reason for it is as point- h ed out by the secreftary of the national highway protective society that minute good weather comes autoists speed up” and they fail to give proper attention and regard' to danger and to others. When it is realized by tl auto driver that he has it within his power to prevent a great number of apcidents and deaths,*in addition to the prevention which will result from law enforcement, then will the record show a decrease and mot until then. PRACTICAL OR THEORETICAL. Gradually the time i3 approaching ‘when the decision of the interstate commerce commission cencerning the question of permitting a change in the freight rates of the railroads of the east can be expected and as it | "oD draws near it becomes evidemt that the roads roed more money for their oper- ation as a business proposition. This is admitted even Ty the counsel for the commission, but whether the roads will be permitted to get it through the desired raise in rates or have imposed |y upon them the burden of getting it by the manner suggested by Counsel Brandeis—through increased efficiency in operatien—increases the interest in the matter under consideration. It Mecomes a question whether greater weight will be given to the statements which have been made by the roads in which they have demonstrated that they need more income, and which has been sadmitied by the opposing counsel, or whether it will be the the- oretical position taken by Mr. Bran- deis which will get the decision. That the introduction of efficiency and the stopping of many’leake would be to the advantage of raiiroads in seneral cannot be questioned, and steps have heen taken by the roads for the securing of such benefits, but it has not been shown that by this method alone the existing situation could be properly relieved. It is at its best only a theoretical solution which is bound to have uncertain re- sults and In the meantime the bus- iness of the roads and of the country heng in the balance, BDITORIAL NOTES, There are more reasons for believ- ing that the straw hat season is less than two weeks away.
