An adverse decision on the part of the Commission would have been a hard blow to this corporation now valiantly struggling to climb out | of the hole into which greed and finance pushed it. No doubt the report of the Commission accurately voices the present feeling of New Englanders toward this great railroad that | tried to gobble up New England: “The sins and shortcomings of the | company in the past have brought about their own retribution. The | company haé received s stern admonition that it cannot proceed in defiance of law and public policy without the risk of disaster. We believe that this lesson will be heeded and that further recrimination | "pon the conduct of the company in the past can conserve no useful | purpose, but on the contrary is likely to increase the losses, already | sufficiently heavy, sustained by innocent stockholders, and to impair still further the transportation facilities so vital to business pros- rity.” . In the same spirit, now that the New Haven has learned its lesson, now that it has placed its fortunes in the hands of a railroad man like Elliott and turned for advice to # railroad specialist like Hadley, the wider public will be glad to see this once great system win back its credit and self-respect. May the New Haven be proof | positive, ae it has hitherto been proof negative, that the soundest maxim of modern railroad theory is: Be first and last a railroad. ——————— The Carmania seems to have proved that first come is not always first ald. | a WHY NOT? VEN « House of Bishops doesn’t seem to be able to agree E whether religion ought to be taught in the public echools. The Bisaep ef and the Bishop of Tennessce ecathingly denounce the absence of the religious element in genoral education. Bishop Greer of New York fears to make the schools eectarian, while Bishop Lewrence of Massachusetts declares th: church must altogether give up the ides of carrying on religious training in tho publio echools. : In deplocing the fact that 623,840 children in New York City are provided with no religions instraction in their day schools Bishop Gailor of Tennessee cays he is informed that “of the one hundred end four brive-takers who were convicted out in Ohio only eight had not been eduested fn the public ecliools,” from which he argues that “ankeas the public echools supplement the work of the Sunday schools the outlook fs not very bright in this country.” Instead of giving the sectarian question a chance to creep un- Didden into the disoussion by insisting upon the term “religious,” mightn’t it be pessible to start a public echool course in Citizenship, with epecial etress em Truth-Telling and Clean Conduct? Such a course would cover much of the ground about which the churches are meat eolicitous and would be one in which any church would find it Bard to pick holes, ——— 4 Benjamin Altema, merchant and benefactor.

Life-saving stetions in this country have specially devised guns that will carry a line 1,000 feet in ordinary weather and three-quar- ters that distance agninst a gale. An inventor who seems to have some knowledge of life-saving apparatus declares in a letter to the Tribune that “every soul on the Volturno could have boen savod by the breech-loading life guns used by the revenue cutters Snoho- mish and Acushnet with comparative safety to the passengers and entire safety to the rescuing vessels.” Surely not the least important lesson to be learned from the Volturno disester is the desirability of extending the use of the old- fashioned life line and the gun that carries it so that human beings may be safely transferred from one ship to another, even across sens that would swamp ¢ lifdboat. —_— oH ‘This being New York's asiden effort et impeaching a Go ‘ she ts naturally somve,flustored to get ft right, tical Letters From the Fcanle oer creature to die the better for the bell? asked Mr. Siavinsky, FSAAAAAAABABAAAAAAAARAALALAAAAABAAAAS Mr. Jarr Is About A Fine But Mysterious Present FISAAAABABABAAAAS “I mean it ie & anakelke fish,” said Mr. Dinkston. “Then say it without @ long conver- sation,” growled Mr. Slavinsky. “If I was to ry to say a fish was all them things my afms would get tired.
