If the college does not hold to & high level of llving and in some way gecure a higher level of moral con- duct in its graduates it does not do its duty Some of the larger colleges and unl versities are creating branches and es- tablishing night schools, spreading the opportunities of their training to the masses. This 18 a good departure, provided those institutions are first training the classes along the proper lines of civic virtue, but if they are not they had better go slow in pushing out into the masses. Back of a high code of ethics every college should have a well-balanced and conservative temperament in its faculty. Many are grossly lacking in this. We are constantly embarrassed by some professor making a bid for cheap notoriety by a sensational utter- ance which he manages to force into public print. As, for instance, the Harvard man who a few days ago to have discovered that the fall of ancient Rome and Greece was due, not to the increase of luxury, old age and moral and physical decay, as history records, but to mosquitoes. Now, this is no offense in itself, but how far does such a public declaration go toward creating a serious respect for the authority or influence of the colls;e ag an institution? Woman's Work. The supreme court of Illinois has fallen in line with thé thowght of the times by holding to be constitutional atute inten t6 limit"the hours which 'a woman ‘may work. The law was attacked on the grounds that it violated the constitution, both of the United States and of the state of Illi- nois, by limiting the right of freedom of contract. The declsion of the United States ‘supreme court in the baker's case, brought from New York, was cited in support of the contention that the state has no right to place a limit on the number of hours an indi- vidual can contract to labor. But the Illinois court points out that the New York. case was one dealing with men exclusively, while the Illinois law deals with women alone. Under the police power of the state, which broadly means that the state has the right at all times to act in protection of the welfare and morals of its citi- zens, the court holds that the law is good, the physical difference between men and women being made the rea- son for the pronouncement. This decision is entirely in line with modern thought. The presence of woman in industry has presented some new problems for solution, which are being gradually worked out along right lines. One of them is the pro- tection of women against the condi- tions that would have her work be- yond her physical capacity. The ex- tension of the police power of the state to cover this situation is not novel, nor does it do any violence to estab- lished precedent. It is not improbable | that it will bé again evoked to further [ 1imit the “freedom of contract’ of the | indlvidual when, the limftation is | 8hown to be clearly In the interest of | public welfare and good morals. Bryce on American Scenery. Right Hon. James Bryce, British ambassador to the United States, writes with great Interest and instruc tion upon the comparative scenery of | North America and Europe in the April [number of the National Review of London and brings out a point_ often | referred to by American writers as to the ignorance of people in the United States of thelr own country and Iits vast variety of scenic beauty A great traveler and profound thinker, it is natural that Mr, Bryce should look for serlous lessons cven in | the panorama of country that pi | before the traveler's admiring eye. So he finds.in the older sections of Eu- {rnpa. like Italy, which for a thousand |years and more has been the home of civilized man, some subtle reminder that this place has been the stage of many human dramas. and feels the touch of living things come from it, Whether there 'be tangible evidence vnovn in_the landscape or architecture Ito recall such facts or not. In this he finds the widest difference between European and American scenery. In the United States and Canada, with sections of newly-estab- ndustries and their trackless ‘Rt plalng (0 the West, he Ainds LI OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: 'APRIL 24, 1010 (1m0 trace of the past, nothing to tell the traveler what went on befors the dawn of civilization. The busy work: a-day age in which we live has not | had time to discover and mark out {those pathe of the past. “In the great | Mississippl plains, for instance, the traveler asks himself, In passing from Pittsburg to Omaha, whether anything aver happened there, observes Mr. Bryee, though he does not add, as he might, that things, indeed, are hap- pening there today in confusingly rapid succession As he passes from place to place and section to section Mr. Bryce shows an amazing detall of knowledge of North America, particularly the United States, and he finds In this country a greater variety and more wonderful works of Nature tham in any other portion of the world. California with its great Slerra Nevada mountains, its perfect canyons and tranquil valleys and crests of eternal snow; its weird, fantastic. Mojave desert languishing lazily between Tehachapi pass and The Needles, Mount Shasta, its fertile flelds’ of grain, orchards of deciduous and citrus fruft, yineyards, capping all with its Yosemite valley-—in this em pire of unknown wealth and variety of scenery, the traveler-author finds the most wonderful natural beauty on the continent and of Yosemite he says: ‘It has a character altogether its own, and, in its own’ peculiar way, unsur passable.” But the final thought that Mr. Bryce suggests is of the utmost interest. What effect will this variety of scen ery, apart from climate, have upon the character and tastes of the people? Quickly he removes any burden of obligation which might have suggested itself to the reader's mind by adding that it will require centuries for these tatural diversities to work out their telling effects. Cause of High Prices. The inquiry set atoot by President Taft to determine, if possible, how far various trades combinations are re- sponsible for the increased cost of liv- ing is proceeding so definitely that reasonable results may be easily an- ticipated. At Elgin, 111, #t has been developed that the weekly quotations on butter, on which the price of that commodity almost absolutely depends, are not the result of the condition of the market as regards supply and de- mand, but are formulgted by a com- mittee wholly controlled by the dealers. Following this disclosure comes the further news that the operations of the Chicago Board of Trade are being in- quired into very closely to ascertain Wwhat influence its operations have on the price of food products, The re- sult of the inquiry Is still in doubt, but the important fact is that Mr. Taft Is acting energetically to determine if any of the combinations of dealers that exist under the guise of boards of trade or produce exchanges are amen- able to the operations of the Sherman anti-trust law. It so be that they are, the president is equally determined that they shall be proceeded against to the extent of the government's power. When the president and his attor- ney general have finally finished it is lileely that the price of commodities to the consumer will be more reagonably representative of the ratio between supply and demand than has been the case for a long time. People’s Voice is Heard. It is a far cry from the day of Mr. Vanderbilt's famous deflance of pub- lic opinion to this time when financial kings are 80 tolerant as to admit, as Andrew Carnegle did, that graat for- tunes may be amassed only by the peo- ple’s co-operation and that, therefore, half of every such aggregation of wealth should go back to the public through the channels of the inherit- ance tax. Mr. Vanderbilt, we believe, finally denfed the authenticity of the disdain- ful remark, but in his public policies he lived out what his words would not refute, and so to have these frank con- fessions from men like Mr. Carnegle is, indeed, encouraging. Not alone Mr. Carnegie, but President Mellen of the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad and George W. Perkins of J, P. Morgan & Co. have recently made public statements which show conclu- sively the revolution' in sentiment of big business toward the public, show that the people have been recognized and are being consulted, which 1s a healthy sign in a popular government. Vast organizations of capital were necessary and will continye to be nee- eseary to handle large industries and there Is no desire to reduce the size of either, but there is very great need to control the power and privileges of these Industries, and that is all the people have ever clamored for. They are getting what they sought now. They are coming to the time when cap- ital i3 willing to admit that it went too far in the direction of arbitrary power for its own or the people’'s good. This is creditable on the part of capl- tal, but it is more creditable on the part of the people that have helped to point the way to this realization. We need not claim that big men of buginess were evil-minded and sought to override publie rights and thus es- tablish this unequal balance between themselves and the people to see that they were factors in a system that was moving with perilous speed toward general ruin. One evil was that business and polities got mixed up and one fought the other until both were badly injured and each became disrespectful of the other's rights. Now they have come (o A saner poiat of view, where ‘business recognizes that the people's word where -the people acknowledge | business has sacred rights as well | dangerous proclivities. The ultimate end is that as is not to the proper balance of the scales The people have recovered, or are re covering, the power they lost and curbing business exercised without right it Justice Slow But Sure The mills of the gods grind slowly, but grind,” must strike with dramatic force persons who have followed the government's prosecution of the case of Captain Oberlin Carter. It is .a case of pathetic, but stern, justice, and ought to come as & solemn iesson in the ultimate purpose and penalty of law, When men sneer at the law's delay and the undue function of the “Great American Technique” it s sometimes difficult to make defense, but here ls a case embodylng at once the inexorable mandate of the law, its completeness and resourcefulness Captain Carter, an army engineer, conspired with Gaynor and @reene in an attempt to swindle the government out of $2,000,000 at the harbor of Savannah. After years of patient struggling with every obstacle that could beset a prosecution the govern ment found Carter guilty. He was stripped of his soldier's uniform and gent to the federal prison at Leaven worth, where he served a term of years, but that did not satisfy the law's demands. The prosecution de veloped the fact that Carter had se- questrated $400,000 of government funds with a brother and uncle It brought suit to recover the money and a few days ago the United States su- preme court decided that the govern- ment was entitled to the money, set- ting up the principle that it has the right to compel restitution of funds “whether they were traceable to the investments in which they were put or not.” Dismissed from the army, sent to prison, deprived of his fortune, Ober- lin Carter stands as a living example of how thoroughly complete the laws of the United States may be made to operate when applied with impartial determination and the single purpose of justice. Private Voclmmnl Training. The departure of certain railroads in establishing schools in their shops to train their own apprentices may possess some excellent features, but it has at least two apparent defects. One Is that the system is based upon the false theory that the youth is invaria- bly deficient in skill and intelligence; the other that the whole tendency and effect of the system is to narrow, in- stead of broaden the individual. Vogational training is a good thing, but .should be dope by the public and not private corporations with selfish | ends to serve thereby. Narrowing the powers of a young man down to the fine point of a.single line of work is but one way of permanently control- ling his eénergies and output and limit- ing his ambition. This is precisely the principle on which plecework 1s based, and plecework is an attribute of modern industrialism against which the man whose capital is his labor be- lieves in fortifylng himself. Insofar as these rallroad schools inculcate techni- cal knowledge they serve a splendid purpose, but when they seek to reduce all labor to the level of specializing they fail to serve the best ends, It is a well-known fact that the me- chanic in a railroad shop or elsewhere who possesses knowledge and skill in every line of his trade is a more inde- pendent man, as well as a more thor- ough mechanic, than the ome who knows how to do but a single line of the work. His labor is more difficult to control, that !s true, but why should his employer seck to limit the develop- ment of his resources any more than he should seek to prescribe the kind ot work he is to do? True, labor con- troversies may be minimized and more eagily won by the employer where all the tradesmen are speclalists, but is that the larger purpose in the economy of vocational education? Roosevelt and Kossuth. Nowhere in Hurope has Theodore Roosevelt been received with such tu- multuous enthusiasm as that accorded bim at Budapest, the capital of Hun- gary. Despite a drenching rain, thou- sands of people were at the depot when his train arrived and, according to press dispatches, all but mobbed him in their eagerness to do him honor. They halled him with cries of “‘Long live Roosevelt,” 'Long live Louis Kos suth,”’ and made his entire stay an ovation of ceaseless enthusiasm. Thera is more than mere news in- terest in this; there is a deep, solemn vein of human interest that cannot be lost sight of by the student of history or by the lover of liberty who appre- clates the crucible of sacrifice and suf- fering through which that precious heritage to mankind has been wrought. Louls Kossuth represents the principle of eivil and political free- dom to the people of Hungary. He lald his own liberty on the altar of country that his people might be free and in the prosecution of his relent- less crusade crossed the waters to the United States, before whose citizens he pleaded the cause of the Hungarian patriots, In their exclamations of “Loung live Louis Kossuth' the people of Hungary are applauding the principle of human liberty which they hold to be dear as lite itself, and they do former President Roossvelt their highest honor when they link his name in this law - and, yet | Thelr appreciation of him as the American type of a patriotism that !holan country above self should not be | lost on the people of Mr. own land, but should aid them in com proper estimate of his services to the republic and mankind One incideat in the public career of Kossuth servea to emphasize the inter. |est in this pro-Rooseveit demonstra | tion In working out the scheme of | Hungary's independence Kossuth and other advocates of reform had drawn up a petition addressed to Emperor Ferdinand of Austria in behalf of their country's grievances. They were will ing that Hungary should remain sub Ject to the executive authority of Aus- tria, but desired a scparate parlinment achieved, but we are coming nearer |ing even nearer than thay have to a| i v — - | vi | . | worship. Kossuth, accompanied more than one nundred patriots, took this petition to Vienna and presented it to the emperor the Austrian capitnl they were greeted with cries of "Long live Kossuth," cries whose meaning was wasted on not of the Hungarian peasantry from a state of servitude to one of civil nnd political liberty.

He does not forget how Roosevelt sent Root, then secretary of state, up to New York ahen Hearst was trylng to take the governor- ship from Hughes, to harg Hearst's hide on the fence, a job he did with most ex- cellent skill and with an effect so de- clsive that Hearst was the only one on his ticket who fell outside the breastworks. It is easy to comprehend the poor opinion Hearst has of Roosevelt. State and Federal Jastice. Philadelphia Record Justice has moved very slowly against the night riders of Kentucky, witnesses and jurors have been intimidated, and for a time it seemed as If the wheels of the|; criminal machinery were blocked. But eleven men have been triéd in a federal court in Covington, not for night specifically, but for conspiracy in restraint of trade, and elght of them have been con- victed. This will make some impression on their partners in violence and crime. Good Example to Follow. New York Sun. The resolution to have a “safe and sane” celebration of Independence day is spread- Ing in various parts of the country. John Adams more than any other man has beén respbnsible for the celebration of the day with explosives, but if Joun Adams had dreamed of the vogue of the cannon fire- cracker and could have known of the ad- vent of the tetanus dealing toy pistol he surely would have withheld the patriotic admonition which has been so often quoted ON THE PEOPLE'S SIDE.
