THE CANNON CRACKER.

We hope we have seen the last of the
American cannon cracker In these parts.
This extraordinary Yankee notion has
won deal OF popular approval over its
Chinese or japanese competitors for two
principal reasons 1t makes louder noise
than the imported cracker, and 1t is more
cleaniy and more handsomely built.
We don't like the noise it makes, how
ever II has an ugly sound. II makes a
bang suggestive of a 44-calibre revolver.
Aside from the loudness of 1t, its sound Is
vicious. II doesn't seem like fun. The
peculiar noise 1t makes is said to be due
to the fact that II is charged with dyna-
mite.
As matter of fact, the American can
non cracker is as vicious weapon as its
sound suggests. II is a danger to whom
ever shoots II, and TO any bystanders.
In crowd it is as much menace as a
ihuohNb IN NV bohNo VI Nuo
celebrates by letting drive a big charge OF
powder and heavy wad in the public
thoroughfare. II Is worse, we think, than
a revolver, which is, to our mind,
thoroughly inexcusable noise maker for
Fourth of July sport.
A glance at the list OF Fourth OF July
casualties charges the American cannon
cracker with accomplishing more serious
injury than about anything that was ever
invented for making innocent noise. 1t
is responsible for MANNED limbs, destruc-
tion OF eyesight, and severe woundings.

OF Yankee make is wicked and treacher- !

FRICTION: A FACTOR OF PROG
KESS


They were neighbors on the front seat
of an electric few evenings ago, and
they were interestedly watching the scenes
passing in quick succession on either side
for even South Main street has its pano-
ramic possibilities. Suddenly with much
jarring and jclting their car came to q
standstill just In front of a heavy truck
that was headed in the opposite direction.
The huge wheels were sliding uselessly
round on the car tracks that were wet
and slippery from the rain OF the last
! twenty-four hours. All the teamster's
urging, and the straining OF the horses
were In yain-until the motorman quietly
tossed shovelful of sand on the track
under the heavy wheels, and then the
truck numbered on its way.
The two occupants of the front seat
looked at each other, and let their mutual
observation of the little episode serve as
an INTRODUCTION.
"Friction is a very good thing in its
way" remarked one.
"Yes, and so is sand"-was the re-
joinder.
Now, for our part, we have always kept
up an effort to eliminate the running
against thers' -sharprcorners tendency in
our disposition, but there have been a
number OF times when it seemed to us
that friction was a very excellent thing
either in literal or a figurative use OF
the phrase.
"Friction keeps knots tied" That is one
OF the few facts that a textbook course
in elementary physics impressed upon us.
And the statement is borne out by illus
trations quite beyond the pale Of natural
science. II does often seem as If the
bonds of society were dependent for their
binding force more upon this one quality
than upon any other-the gentle, yet per-
sistent friction whose effect is restricting
rather than irritating.
The movement that finds q perfectly
smooth track for itself through the
thoroughfare OF public opinion is,
thousand TO one, something that makes
no progress whatever. The reform that
has plenty of resistance to overcome, and
makes of the very friction in its path a
means for furthering its course-that is
the movement that is pretty sure to go
ahead.
There is certain wholesome exercise
In overcoming resistance that develops
moral and mental biceps, so to speak.
And the man who has never had to make
his way in spite of friction is liable to be
rather fiabby in both his abilities and
his principles.
And carrying the application from the
individual to the race, 1t is potent that
the nation whose way has been made the
smoothest by nature is never the nation
to gain foremost rank for itself.
1t may be not always easy to feel sure
of it, but 1t is a fact, nevertheless, Shat
friction is an important factor in progress.

rHE "scHOoL HOUSE" PARADE

Yesterday afternoon there was a parade
In East Boston, which had received an
extraordinary amount of preliminary ad-
vertising. II was parade OF the A. p. A.,
and similar organizations, and for some
days before the Fourth, it appears, there
was lot of discussion among the queer
folk in Boston as to whether the parade
should be ''aliowed" or not, especially
as IT was proposed to carry in the parade
s"Little Red Schoolhouse. The prepos-
ferrous proposition that tho "Little Red
Schoolhouse' should not be carried was,
of course, overruled, but it appears that
some folk in Boston gave it very serious
consideration. We had a "Little Red
6choolhouse'' paraded through our
streets here in Providence on the Fourth
of July, 1894, we believe, and, IL we re-
member right, ii received nothing but
q cordial recognition, as it ought to. 1t
is pretty symbol of tremendous power
In our national life, and especially do we
like to cherish 1t here in New England.
Well, the paraders in East Boston par
AIDED, but the promoters of the display
and the municipal authorities evidently
thought it advisable to furnish police
escort to save the procession from being
attacked. Think OF the condition OF
community where police escort has to
be furnished to parade like this, or any
other kind of a parade that is decent.
And in this particular demonstration of
marchers the American flag was SO con-
spicuous that there was no suggestion OF
anything but the most ardent patriotism.
And yet there is an element over in East
Boston OF 30 pernicious a nature that a
police escort had to be provided to pro-
tect all these American flags, and the men
and women who carried them. We're it
not serious, such a situation would be
absurd.
Well, the line was attacked, and boots,
Kisses and yells came from the crowds
along the streets. lncipient interchange
of hard language developed into fracasses,
fracasses into fights, and the fights into
q mob which the police were unprepared
to control without the clubbing of a good
many heads. One man was shot to death,
and good many were seriously hurt
before the disgraceful affair was over.
The riot was more serious than any that
has occurred In Boston within genera
tion. That It should have occurred in the
town of "Boston Common" is an amaz-
ing thing. And that 1t should have
occurred on the Fourth OF July, and that
the American Flag and the "Little Red
schoolhouse" should have been permitted
to be the victims OF attack at the hands
OF a strangely brutal and cowardly mob,
makes the riot one OF the strangest out
breaks in the history Of the land.
