Mr. Strauss puts the matter concretely. * We can all appreciate his object lesson. We all know ‘Would happen if a man should try to strangle a child in First there would be horror, then tremendous indignation, lynching. And yet, as Mr. Strauss says, children are actually murdered ev- @ry day. They are murdered, for instance, by poisoned milk and @Gulterated food. But nobody erfes out. There are no lynehings. The public mind fs a dull thing—except when it ts stirred. When & Grime is pictured before its eyes it is amazed. It is shocked by the spectacle. It demands redress. It moves! But the public mind fe Bot imaginative. It must have the wrong before its face. It is Bet interested in what it does not actually see. . And here is always the hope of better things and here ts the Milssion of the press—pubdlicity. The newspapers must make the People see the wrongs. The abuses of the time must be put con @zetely. The press must study the art of putting things in such a {way as to arouse the public conscience. It must make the people see ‘Wings as they are. what public. then—a The Air Is Conquered Roy Knabenshue, In his Toledo Might in an airship, has demon- Strated that the long-dreamed-of navigation of the air is to some de- Bree at least practicable. His is the first flight ever made that may be called successful. He sailed three miles agaiast a strong wind, with his machine al- ways under perfect control, landed where he had previously an- Bounced that he would land, and then made the return journey to @zactly the spot from which he had started. ‘The essential requirements of aerial navigation have been met. Correct principles have been discovered and properly applied. But a host of difficulties will develop and must be overcome. One swallow does not make a summer; nor does one successful Might fill the sky with airships. ‘The automobile was an accomplished mechanieal fact long years Before it was made practicable for general use. So was the steam engine and every other mechanical !nnovation. ‘The popular mind requires development quite as much as an {n- ¥ention. A long campaign of education through advertising was nec- ‘essary to make even so simple a thing as the bicycle popular. Far @ore than that will be required to induce the public to take to the @ir, even though airships be made perfectly safe. Root Elihu Root resigned his position as secretary of war in February, 3904. As secretary his income was $8,000 a year. Soon after his Fesignation his law practice was paying him at the rate of $200,000 & year. ‘ To some people this appeared the only reason for the change. ‘Bat now in light of Root’s return to the cabinet at the old petty sal- “ary it is fair to look for a better reason. i Root reorganized the war department and the American army. “Hie stopped cld abuses and put everything on the basts of efficiency. By dint of being right and Insisting he was right, until congress Shared his conviction, he carried through every reform he advocat- e4. He proved himself the greatest war secretary since Stanton. Then he resigned. It ts given to some men to be organizers and to some to be po @inistrators. Root is an organizer. When he had done the work in the war department he had entered it to do, the merely routine ad- ministration of the completed mechanism had no attraction for him and he was glad to turn over this work to a lesser man. Now, however, im addition to the president's plea for help, there ts to Root the attraction of another tough job at reorganization. Our diplomatic and consular service is in many ways as crude and old-fashioned as was the army four years ago. Root will reform these services. Muddle and incompetency are a challenge to his strong constructive mind. Hay dealt in higher diplomacy and over- looked y details of organization. Root's job will be to make the American diplomatic and consular service the best tn the world. Meanwhile Roots sacrifice of an income for public service is an fnspiring offset to Morton's desertion of public service for an income.
