W lafter the * R Starting Them Right. The agitation over immigration leg- fslation and the investigation into con ditions confronting the tmmigrant anding in this country seem to be having at least one good result in | directing attention to some of the weak #pots In our immigration machinery. That our unprecedented growth and prosperity is in large part due to the steady influx of new population from abroad is universally admitted, and even those who cry for further restric undesirable’” immigrant. That we have been altogether too neglectful of the newcomer, and that this aeglect has much to do with the degree of Gesirabllity is also becoming plainer. With vast undeveloped resources and the insatiable demand for skilled and unskilled labor in some parts of the country all the time, it is found that the immigration problem is com- plicated for the most part by the in- adequate means of distribution with resultant congestion in the big cities in which the immigrants first debark. The immigration authorities have been exercising scrupulous cage in sifting tlon are careful to inveigh only against | to the building of new railroads, the creation of new centers ‘of population {and the opening up of new regions of agriculture that the mention of ape or |anether excites scarcely passing notice. | But amidst this general stir and bustle the activity now animating the whole western country is worthy of attention Great raflroad systems have appropri ated enormous sums of money for the purpose of putting themselves into con dition to care for the steadily growing traffic and to provide for the needs of the communities they serve. New projects for the extension of the agri- cultural domain are taking on dally the form of actual exisience. A steady stream of new population 18 pouring Into the western states. Not one of them has a monopoly on this growth, but all the region generally referrad to a8 “‘the west” shares in it. At no time since the great days of the early rush{ to the fertile lands of the Great Plains has the uplift been more marked than it is during the present spring. This is the most encouraging sign now in sight. It means new life, new homes, new towns, greater growth and greater wealth, and a groater share In the gen- bers of the much of a good thing, but the doctors hold it mistake it was, is not vital to the in- tent of the law. institutional side of our schools for proof of this.

It fs a dull child who fails to grasp new ideas of the purpose of ed ucation from making useful articles | with his own hands. The natural effect s to broaden his mental vision because it diversifies his scope of ac- | tivities —— Nebraska and the Doctors. One of the doctors who took part in the anti-tuberculosis congress at Washington during the week rather severely criticised the Nebraska legis- lature for the tuberculosis sanitarium law passed at the last session. It ap pears that the Nebraska law-makers have gone rather faster than the doc tors desired. This can be accounted for only on the theory that the mem- legislature thought per haps that they could not have too made, otherwise.

In New York state where the immigration problem presses heavi- est, it is proposed to establish and maintain a state immigration bureau to look after the néw arrivals, put them in touch with friends and rela- tives, assist them to reach their points of ultimate destination and to protect them in the interval against fraud and €poliation in the numerous pitfalls that are spread for them—in a word to make easier the transit from op- pression and dependence to freedom and self-support. This duty does not devolve on New York state alone, but should be met by other states as well, and perhaps by the gencral government itself. It goes without saying that where the states undertake to extend this help to the immigrant the federal 4im- migration authorities shonld by all means co-operate in every possible way. This country need have no fear about keeping its gates wide open to the ambitious and energetic people of the old world who may want to come here, if only we see to it that they start right. Do Nét Sc‘lar Your Fire, The clergy is still asking the ques: tion, “Why do not more men attend church?” One minister who sent out several hundred letters of inquiry to as many men read the answers, tore them up and from the whole formed the concrete conclusion, ‘‘Because they do not want to."” This conclusion presupposes the present to be an irreligious age, a view which ministers as a whole are not content to take. They are show- ing a disposition at last to turn the searchlight of inquiry inward, and thia gives some cncouragement for a solu- tion of their problem. At a recent gathering of ministers in Omaha a prominent attorney, active in church affaire, delivered a toast, “The Pew’s View of the Pulpit,”” in which he took the position that too many ministers scatter their fire and do not concen- trate enough, and also that as a con- sequence they too frequently go into their pulpits unprepared, Irreligious age or not, this is an age when men are thinking, when the spellbinder in pulpit or on the stump cannot sway people’s minds as he once did unless he has a message. The preacher who spends most of the week running from pillar to post in matters thai concern him culy in proportion to his individual relation to society can- not be thoroughly prepared to instruct and enlighten his congregation on Sunday, and he cannot expect long to hold the attention unless he gives something more than the husks of guperficial thought which he has been abie to snate up on the run. Complete preparation, coupled with a deep con vietion and backed by an irreproach- able character will go a long way toward insuring the preacher a respect- ful hearing. It is strange, too, that ministers do not see that if each pastor concentrated his energy on the work ef his own church he would soon re- move the occasion for diverting his actlvities. Infusion of this generating force into the membership of each church would soon arouse them all into a live, working community, each member doing his part. And is not this, after all, one of the ends to be attained? Uplift of the West. From all parts of the country come comforting assurances that business is again on a solid footing. The great manufacturing centers of the east have recovered from whatever depre: sion might have checked their activity the financial centers of the country re- port a steady demand for funds and the great loan agencies have raised their interest rate—a most conclusive proof that the demand for money has increased; and alongside of these cer- tain indications of continued prosper- yield ut $22,000,000, of which $3.- 500,000, or more than one-seventh, will bé “callected in the city of New Xork, Byt it will not be pald there. ity may be ranged the evidences of general activity in the west. People have become so accustomed with a feeling of apprehension by even the closest friends of Great Britain in the family of nations. The new king finds his country on the threshold of a new era in its civic life, facing a political crisis from which it can emerge with safety only by the exer- clse of the wisest gtatesmanship. When a single misstep might plunge it into grave danger, it is a severe crucible in which to try the metal of a soverelgn. But King George brings to the throne no Inconsiderable qualities to match his great task. He Is in the prime of life, vigorous, alert, deter- mined. He is as progressive as was Edward, if not as democratic and has had experience to season his powers. On more than one occasion he has dis- played a knowledge of affairs and breadth of view and conception of what was best for Great Britain's wel- fare that have opened the eyes of his and other nations. His famous speech after touring the colonies calling on England to “wake up,” still rings in the ears of commons and peers alike. The fact is the feeling of misgiving attending his ascension will arise more because of the change in rulers than because George becomes king, for neither his people nor others will have the doubt of him that they had of his father when he went to the throne on the death of Victoria. Fortunately for him, the new king will have his father's sober judgment and even temperament to guide him in the presemt turmoil of national poli- tics and at the very outset becomes heir to his wisdom in securing a late date for the election which is to go so far toward shaping the future of the kingdom. It is inconceivable that Ed- ward covld have foreseen his end in exerting his influence against a spring election, but in the light of events he could have acted from no wiser motive, for it would have been extremely con- fusing for the change in rulers to come in the midst, or on the eve of a general election as would have happened had not the election been put off until fall. But the most beneficent legacy of statesmanship whi¢h King Edward be- queathed his son and people in the ordeal of this crisis is to be found in the fact that today, while Parliament and the country are torn with party strife, the throne is not on trial. And it would have been on trial long ago but for the cool diplomacy of the ruler who has just laid down the scepter. The School and the State. Germany is today one of the strong- est of world powers and her progress dates from the time she adopted the principle enunciated by one of her foremost thinkers, “Whatever we put into the state we must first put into the schools.” It is axiomatic to speak of the German as a thinker. He is essentially the kind of thinker that Ambassador James Bryce was plead- ing for in a recent speech-—an inde- pendent thinker; he does his own reasoning. And this is largely be- cause of the character of his early school training. He has come to it through slow, but sure, processes. Americans boast, and rightly so, of their system of education, their public | schools particularly, but American parents want to change their general view of the public school before their children derive the largest benefits that may flow from it. They want to view the school, not simply as a build- ing where children are taught to read and write and spell and a few other things, but rather as the institutional center of their lives, a place where they shall learn the lessons in funda- mental government, a process for character training. They need to re- gard the school as the foundation stone of civic life, as the vitals, not the limbs of the body politic. The children, of course, have their higher lesson to learn. It is for them to be taught to exalt the idea and ideal of education, but they will not be Vikely to learn this lesson thoroughly until the parent has learned his. But progress is being made toward this better goal, whether the essence of statesmanship, as comprehended in the German's epigram, is sufficiently permeating our public school system or not, We need but to look at the out tuberculosis. same assistance to human beings. One of the chief features of the crit iclem hitherto levied against the law- makers has been their indifference om | this point.

This spirit is to be commended, even if its manifestation does not wholly com- mend itself to the experts who have agreed on very few points, especially when those few points are compre- hended in the Nebraska law. If the‘ immunization feature of the law 'is seriously objectionable it can easily be removed. Rebuking law-makers be-| cause they are unable to 'follow the ramifications of medical debate is not calculated to provide the solution, Healthy Public Sentiment. Men of vast fortunes are giving millior:s to education, religion, charity and other worthy causes. Andrew Carnegie dreads the thought of dying rich, John D. Rockefeller organizes a corporation by which he may dispense hig wealth, D. K. Pearsons chuckles in boastful glee that he at 90 has only a few millions left, while Mrs. Russell Sage, Miss Anne Morgan, Miss Helen Gould and others are proceeding with varied plane of giving. Mani- festly among tha “big rich” the vision of the purpose of wealth has changed | as well as has the attitude toward the | less fortunate member of society. | What has brought about the change? Does Christ's warning to Nicodemus alarm them? Does the ominous eye of | the needle stare the rich in the face? | Have they come at last to the real answer to that immortal query thun- dered through the ages, “Am 1 my brother's keeper?" The extent of this influence to be measured, but it requires no supernatural vision to see that a healthy assertive public sentiment has | produced good results. The volce of | the people is the motive power of the | government and this voice has been raised in popular disapproval of the hoarding of falulous fortunes until it | has brought a response. Through the channels of public expression, :biefly the daily press, on the platform and in legislation, the people have spoken decisively in the last few years and they have creatcd a sentiment which is working out its own results. It h‘ is not one of the best achievements wrought, in this country, this thing of enlisting the service of millionaires in solving | everyday problems of buman life and destiny and it is an inevitable refuta- tion of that pessimistic disclaimer annm’ wealth merely as wealth Telling it to the World. “Gentlemen, His Majesty is dead.” Within a very few minutes after Lord Knollys thus addressed the wait- ing reporters at Buckingham palace, newsboys were rending the night air with their frantic cry, “All about King Edward’'s death,” and the suspense of dread was broken by the grief of knowledge. It was the announcement to the world that Britain's sovereign had passed away. The succeeding king, to be sure, dispatched the sur- rowful news to the lord mayor of Lon- don, attaches of the court had officially advised British representatives at home and abroad and embassies flashed the messages back and forth. But not until those five words were communi- cated to the patient, humble reporters, waiting outside the walls, did the world-at-large have knowledge of the king's death. Tt is the same in every great event or public interest-—the message to the world is transmitted through the medium of this same waiting reporter who keeps his vigil through days of trying excitement and nights of weary- ing gloom, who stands behind the scenes, out of view from the eager millions that await his ‘word. The world little dreams or cares (o think of 'the Jarge place it has to give to the importance of this reporter’s work. It has grown callous in its indifference vigor. Stick Close to the Melon. 8t.
