Euthanasia will do as a hobby for some men, but not those who have en- joyed the distinction of Dr. Eliot as one of the moulders of national thought and if he is to hold the esteem he has gained through long years of strong leadership he will have to redeem himself from this departure. Such a philosophy might thrive in a country where optimism did not abound as it does in° America, but it will never do well here. It is alien to the conception of life in the United States and could be indigenous only in a country where despair instead of hope was the ruling passion of the people. Here the best thought of the day is devotad to new ways, not of meeting | death, but of combatting disease. State | and national governmenis are engaged with private enterprise in a warfare | against ailments heretofore regsrded‘ 8 incurable and are meeting with astounding success. Men are looking up, not down. They are following life, | not death. .They are gaining courage in combat, not wasting it in submis-| islon. Stremgth, not weakness, is wanted today. Dante's picture of the suicide corner of hell still looms be- fore men with ominous gloom. The man with the key to health and life will get a better hearing today than the one with a somber, sickiy tale of how easy It is to give up and die. The world has need of such men as | Dr. Eliot, but it needs them for their virility of character, their nobility of learning, their wisdom and their sanity. Erudition suffers and dignity is slain when men of his type stoop to | eccentricity.

The weather man was a little late getting around to the rain spout, but there is still plenty of time. One reason why it seems to his critics that President Taft is ‘‘gaining ground” is that he had not lost it. Again the public is assured that Mrs, Leavitt's wedding will be a quiet affair.” Why should it not be quiet? The progress of investigations in Philadelphia has reached the hospitals for the insane. Some maniac gone wrong, probably. The London minister who said Americans were intoxicated with wealth probably meant we were tight with our money. How about it?

M This activity on Edward’'s part is a rather stern rebuke to those reports of his ill-health. The fact is, as Lon- don specials have it, he has never lost his hold on events at Westminster, though so long absent srnm London. Reclamation Returns. The actual test of the government participation in the. work of reclaim- ing the waste reglons of the west has proven that the experiment js a suc- cess. The settlers who took up land under the government-built ditches are paying up promptly, a great ma Jority of them paying in advance. This | can mean but one thing, and that is that the government will receive back the money expended for construction of dams and ditches to provide water for irrigating the dry lands. The peo- ple who have settled on these lands are prospering, and the net result of the project is the creation -of new homes and new sources of supply for national citizenship and national wealth. As one of the pioneers in the move ment for government control of irriga- tion projects, The Bee takes pardona- ble satisfaction in the outcome of the policy it has advocated for years. Governor Deneen has taken about the only course open to him in the case of Senator Lorimer against the regularity of whose election such dam- aging charges are made by the Chicago Tribune by having it submitted to a grand jury. The charges, though de- nied by the senator, were of such a character as to demand investigation, and Lorimer should be one of the first to aid {n the inquiry if he is innocent of any wrong-doing, as he professes to be.

An effort was made during the sixtieth “congress, and is the subject of pending legislation, to have this matter adjusted, so as to provide for the lssuance of commissions.

If the recruits were | vaceinated as they came into the service, it not be long before the vast ma- jority of the enlisted force had received | this form of protection against this par- | | ticular disease. At present vaccination has | been administered to volunteers among the officers and enlisted men and it is esti- mated by the medical authorities that about 6,000 have received the treatment. It was expected that this voluntary vaceina- | tion would not do much in the way of pro- tection against typhold, but it would have | its value In showing the harmlessness of | the procedure and this has been sufficlently | demonstrated. It has not been considered | aavisable to establish compulsory vaccina- | tion and it is now held by the secretary of | | |¢ wos | it s war that until this is done in the army it | 1s not desirable to require recruits to sub- | Ject themselves to the anti-typhold vaccina- | tion, The difficulties which have beset lain J.
