Control and Not Destruction. mands destruction of the whole insti to so-called economic justice is that it regards individual wealth as beyond control, thereby imputing to govern- possess. In the firet, place, all abuses of the laws of supply and de- mand have not been due to private property a¢ an ipstitution, and in the next place, if they had been, socialism would not necessarily be the panacea This republic 18 not ready to admit its inability to control wealth even when organized in gigantic forms. It has grappled with and brought to complete land permanent ' solution problems | much more formidablé and it may be depended upon not to fail here. It is proper, sane regulation rather than abolition of wealth that is wanted and which we will have in the United States, all the vagafious theorists to the contrary notwithstanding. This is clearly outlined by President Taft in hig Jackson, Mich., speech, when he says the lesue is being framed with ‘‘respect to the institution of private property,” and’ disgents from those who charge all the economic evils to the abuse of this power and advocate its destruction as the only way of es- tablishing an equilibrium between the masses. There Is no danger that soclalism will ever triumph =o long as the people keep their faith in a popular govern- ment so full of opportunity for indi- The policy of “destruc- tion”” means groping for a last resort, menans weakness and despair, and we are not giving up in this country to- day; we are not placing a premium on human weakness, but on personal effort and organized grit,.and we are showing considerable progress in curb- ing and controlling, directing and regu- lating, the powerful accumiilations of wealth and making them contribute to the development of oMr national life and {ndustries as agencles of mseful- ness rather than a mere mechanism of oppression The Example of Darius Green. According to the mother of Charles K. Hamilton, one of the ambitious avi- ators who wijl compete in the tlight from New York to St. Loufs for a prize of $30,000, her son was originally in- spired by the story of Darius Green and His Flylng Machine, and all his life has been dreaming and working over airships. It may be that other of the twentleth century aviators, pos- sibly the Wright brothers, or Farnam, or Curtisg, or even the foreigners, Ble- riot, Paulhan or Santos-Dumont, got their tirst notion of aerial navigation from the same simple gource. At any rate we may admit that this crude per- sonage in his naive way has sent his influence on_down through nistory. to be felt in' the enlfghtened, progressive agé of the twentlelh “century, as a genuine boon to science and world economy. But before we proceed too far in our marveling over the wonderful feats that are being accomplished, it might be well to go back into history and see if the advancement of the present day is altogether unprece- dented. Between 1823 and 1830 Rufus Porter made a cigar-shaped dirigible balloon strikingly like the one in which Santos-Dumont achieved such fame, and Henri Gifford, the French inventor, constructed a.steam- propelling airship which was & crude model of the modern machine, Nor will the man who succeeds in flying from New York to St. Louis be the first to travel that distance in air. In the latter '50s a flight was from St. Louis to a point 1,200 miles distant in the state of New York in just twenty hours. So that the present human birds have really some pretty fair records to break. a century ago. Them men merely means of balloons, while today they are working toward the perfection of systematic aerial ‘havigation, bringing their aircraft under definite control with a view of making them practical means of transportation. we are achleving. { A Congress of Activity. most prolific of results. for it. For the benefit of believe congress has been indolent it might be stated that during the present eession 26,897 bills have been intro- duced in the house and 8,219 in the The fallacy of the theory that de- tution of private property as a means ment an inherent weakness it does not the made But of course there is a vast differ- ence between what is being done today and what was done three-quarters of salled somewhere through space by And yet the power of the example of the Darius Greens is felt through every triumph The present congress will go down in history as one of the busiest and More actual constructive legislative has been en- acted during this first regular session of the Taft administration than is usu- ally enacted in three years, and the great feature about it is that the over- whelming part of this legislation is that the people have been clamoring those wheo before adjournment, whenever that may be. The people may rest reason- ably assured now that they will secure the enactment of laws on these sub- jects. This is an assurance which the anti-administration organs were not willing to concede a few weeks ago, when they were telling the people that they need not expect congress to give them any rallroad bill, any conserva- {tion or postal savings bill, but the | railroad bill i& on the way and the | conservation bills probably will be| | voted on before many days, while the |others will come In short order. | By the time congress adjourns and the members go home to seek endorse- ment at the polls, there will in all probability have been written upon | the statute books at Washington ample ;mn(erlnl in the form of long-demanded laws to warrant any member who helped .writ them there asking a| vindication from the voters | il | What Ails Royal Europe. | The recent death of one Kuropean |monarch and the serious illness of three others prompts a solicitude of broader scope than just personal anxiety, The possiblities of so much | physical ailment among the erowned heads are not pleasant to contemplate either fn continental Europe or abroad, for talk as we will about the nominal power of the throne, it commands an influénce and sustains a relation whose transter to other hands produces in- convenient effects. It will be a long |time before Great Britain will be able [to set down anything like an accurate estimate of the result upon mnational affairs of the king's death and even private business has not yet been able to relapse into normal condition since | the sad event, | Today the crown prince of Sweden is conducting the affairs of the nation because King Gustayus is too sick to do | 0. Emperor Willlam of Germany is known to be in very uncertain health and was obliged to delegate some of | bis official functions to his eldest son | for a time, while the young King Al- fonso of Spain is reported to be alarm- ingly ill. Added to all this sickness of royalty is the news that President | Fallieres of the republic of . France | contemplates resigning on account of | his health, and that M, Briand, prime | minister, may succeed him. | The question must force itselt ‘on the public mind: What has gone wrong with the official heads of so many European nations. In case| of ‘the republican, Fallieres, we‘ have his own reported statement that he wishes simply to retire from public life, but in the case of the royalty it seems that some sort of contagion had struck the throne and given new signi- ficance to the old saying: ‘‘Uneasy rests the head that wears the crown.” | The New Test. Notice {s given by our amiable dem- ocratic contemporary that the signing of “Statement No. 1" is to be the new test, and presumably the only test, of the democracy of aspiring candidates for the legislature. All democrats who sign “Statement No. 1" will look alike to it and be commended to the confidence and| favor of demacratic voters. \ Just sign ‘‘Statement No. 1" and all past misdeeds will be forgiven. The notorious boodler and the chronic grafter may have an immunity bath by immersing himself in “State- ment No. 1.” All the corporation cappers or other disreputables in the late Douglas dele- gation may reinstate themselves as democrats in good standing by swal- lowing a dose of “Statement No. 1.’ Any liar whose word is at discount and whose bond is below par can float his paper as a legislative candidate on the democratic ticket by signing up for ‘“‘Statement No. 1.” “‘Statement No. 1" is the new polit- ical divining rod that will.tell the true democrat from the false, the real arti- cle from the counterfeit. Oh, if we had only had this infallible test before the ‘“‘sting of Ingratitude’ got in its work! In Iowa. The political spotlight is right now on lowa, where the impending pri- maries will soon tell who's who in the Hawkeye state. Although the pri- maries are to determine the make-up of the tickets of all parties, the inter- est is centered almost wholly on the republican side of the fence, and there on the renomination of members of congress who have been standing with the regular organization. The per- sonal participation of the two United States senators from lowa pleading for a repudiation of the regulars as an endorsement of their own insurgency has drawn factional lines sharply and diverted the issueés in some measure from the personalities of the opposing candidates for primary preference. It remains to be seen, however, whether Iowa republicans will vote to |lem will be to find the best man to her observance of woman suffrage, ‘1 have no time to vote after 1 have done my duty to my children to whom 1 have devoted my life.”” There is a moral in that Refurning to face that judgment for $6,263,205.49, President Barlow of the Water board says the next prob- manage the water plant for the city. How can there be any problem about that when everyone knows the whole scheme from its inception was de- signed to fit into the job one R. B.| Howell, who has been the chief actor in the bunco game? It is not a ques- tion ot the best man to manage the water works, but of the only one who can manage it—the man who has all the other members of the Water board hypnotized, and who is only waiting for them to persuade him to sacrifice himself. Mr. Roosevelt might cite in his own defense, not only the fact that he was given the freedom of the city, but that May 21 the London Spectator declared, “It would be a thousand pities if Mr. Roosevelt should leave us without speaking to the English people and speaking quite plainly what he has to say of them and their work here and abroad.” So far as is known the Spectator has found no room to com- plain since the Guild hall speech.

HE GATHERS THEM IN, Activities of “the Western Kill-Joy” of Democracy. New York World (dem.). When the late Governor Johnson of Min- nesota was in the flesh Mr. Bryan held him in high regard, tempered only by a goawing fear that he might have some plutocratic friends, Governor Harmon of Ohio is now con- spicuous enough to merit and receive the| same distingulshed attention. Mr. Bryan | looks with fawor upon this great demo- crat also, but he entertains a sickening doubt of his courare. One of these days the painful discovery will be made at Lincoln, Neb., that Mayor Gaynor, although a great and good man, has his faults. Any other gentleman of Jettersonian tendéncies who chances to be elected to high office will be likely also to fall a few inches short of the Bryan standards. In this fashion are the hopes of democ- racy blighted as they bloom. The eagle eye of the western kill-joy is upon them. Like death the reaper, he cuts them down; Ilike the gravedigger, he gathers them in. PERSONAL NOTES. English men of letters have treated Roosevelt with eonsideration, but Kipling threatens to write a poem about him, The Prussian Parllament's favorable action on the kaiser's request for a raise of salary seems to be a further recognition of the high cost of living. The bar of England has lost dresser, John Carter, to whose shop by Temple Bar, & relic of London in the merry days when Henry VIII reigned, came each day juniors, K.

Charles Netcher of Chicago iz act- ing man and owner, with her ehildren, of one of the largest department stores in the world. The store covers 15 acres of floor space, represents an investment of more than $15,00,00 and employs upward of 3,00 persons.

The time wi perhaps, when the mounted service school was of this character, but that time has passed, and its present aim is to turn out officer-grad- uates competent to act as Instructors for their regiments in regimental riding schools, It is contemplated that only the finest horsemen be sent from each regiment, and the regulations require regimental com- manders to make their recommndations for student officers on the basis of “zeal In their work and special adaptability for ad- vanced equitation and horse training, and excellent physical condition.”” So stren- uous I8 the ph al feature of the course that the certificate of a medical officer is required to accompany the regimental com- mander's indorsement. Despite the fact that the War depart- ment has adopted and promulgated a policy which places the joint army and militia maneuver camps of this year on & very Ppractical basis, with the minimum amount of construction at these places, numerous requests are being received in Washing- ton from the army quartermasters in charge of camp construction. It is quite evident that the expense in that particular will be only slightly less than it has been in previous years and it will still be within the restrictions imposed by the secretary of war, who desires that the camp shall approach as nearly as possible the condi- tons which would prevall in the field in time of war, with an absence of what may bo called camp comforts and only such con- veniences as are necessary contributions to camp sanitation and the protection of the health of the troops. The officers who are | t work on the program of exercises will | observe the injunction of the secretary of war to have everything on a work-a-day basis. By this means the militia commands which are to participate In these camps will derive the experiences which would be their lot if they took the field In the pres- ence of an enemy., The infantry officers who have been giv- ing attention during the past year to the equipment and apparel of the foot soldler, have been much fmpressed with a new type of shoe, which fs the subject of report recelved by the surgeon general of the army from British military sources, The new shoe appears to obviate some of the difficulties which arise from breaking in new shoes while soldiers are on a cam- palgn. By the arrangement a soldler may re-sole and heel his own shoes. The new type has four soles. The outer and middle soles are constructed of compressed and speclally treated leather. The outer sole Is removable and may be easlly attached. The heels are also interchangeable and are constructed of two stout layers of spe- clally treated leather compressed at a pressure of 10000 pounds to the square inch. The expert who makes the comment on this subject says: “When we consider the large number of people who wear their heels down unevenly, the advantage of be- ing able to shift them from one boot to the other, w0 as to insure thelr being worn down evenly, is obvious. The uppers of these boots are alro treated by a special process which makes them extraordinarily soft and flexible, and also absolutely waterproof, and what s still more remark- able, no amourt of soaking in water makes them lose their flexibility on subsequent drylrg, even before a fire. The military authorities have before them this week an Interesting question sub- mitted from the United States military prison at Fort' Leavenworth. Sums of money of $ aud $, respectively, were taken from two members of the prison guard, being “eceived by them in con- cideration of surreptitously conveying money to convicts. Another sum of $ wes taken from a conviet who had received it from a civilian for delivering newspapers on the prison reservation. The money was confiscated in each case and lurned into the convicts' mess fund. It has been sug- gested by the Inspector general of the army, who 1cported the facts, that a rule could be added to the prison regulations to authoriZe such action. The men have been punished in the regular way and It is held by the War department that the confiscation and disposition of the money was unauthorized by law. It will be necessary, therefore, to return the money to the men ficm whom it was taken. The commandant of the prison has ample au- thority to punish prisoners for infractions of the rule in regard to the unauthqrized receipt of money and he has full authority to take into his custody and hold for the convicts' benefit fund any money which he may receive while In prison from any source. 1 is held that the money was the property of the soldler from whom it was taken. Were it not for such ownership, it would not be possible to dispose of It in the manner reported, The unusual clrcumstances attending the treatment in the last illness of Major Ed- ward Chynoweth, Seventeenth infantry, who died at Fort McPherson, Ga., has re- sulted in the promulgation by the secre- tary of the war of a rule which has been generally observed, although not formally prescribed. In the case of the late officer a civilian physician of Atlanta, Ga., was calle din and the treatment was entrusted to him, although there were on duty at Fort McPherson three army surgeons avallable for this service. The sudden and critical lliness of Major Chynoweth war- anted the family of that officer in thelr action, but the government, by a decision of the comptrolier, to which reference has been made in the Army and Navy Register, has disallowed the claim of the Atlan civilian physician for the medical attend- ance rendered. The point hinged on the fact that Major Chynoweth was removed to the hospital in Atlanta. A difference of opinion was evident between the cheif sur- geon of the department and the surgeon eneral of the army concerning the ability of the local army medical officers to treat the case.

This is the declsion of the supreme court af- ter ftive years' litigation. This was the price put on the plant by two of the three appraisers in 1906, the appralsers having been appointed in 1908. After a little more litigation to determine when the sale be- came effective, and what the earnings of the water company have been, the mat- ter will be settied, which ought to be before Halley's comet gomes again. Beatrice Express: Omaba, like most of the Nebraska towns, has come to the con- clusion that she was expecting too much of the feensus this year. Dissatistied with the government enumeration, the Commer- cial club of that city had a private census taken, with the result that it was found there were several thousand less people in Omaha than was counted on earlier in the year. The galn over the 1900 census will be amall. Similar results in practi- cally all the other towns of the state lead to the conclusion that the census ten years ago was padded considerably.
