TEAcHERs on VACATION

No class Of workers 50 wei deserves
the enjoyment Of a vacation as the public
school teachers Of the District of Columbia
The Times has already, in its magnificent
school edition, paid an earnest tribute to
the conscientious labors Of this splendid
body OF men and women to whom has been
intusted the development of the minds
OF $4,000 OF the youth OF Washington, and
it viii always take a keen pleasure in its
reiteration.
For about ten months Of the year they
labor devotedIy and in large measure
unself fishIy-to what extent was never
really known to the people Of the city until
The Times school edition appeared Their
work has not been confined 10 The school
hours 1t must always be with them
And for it all uey are poorly paid No
employees OF the government achieve such
results for so little money. Many among
them are as highly cultured as the holders
OF university professor ships, and yet
their pay and opportunities are not as good
as those OF copyists in the departments.
But pedagogy has a fascination, and its
disciples are not, as rule, discontented.
As virtue is sometimes its own reward, so
the mere pleasure OF awakening the young
mind to a knowledge OF its possibilities
is compensation in itself.
But the teachers are on vacation, and
may they enjoy it to the fullest. Some are
IN the mountains. Others are by the seashore,
many are enriching the humble country
boarding house keeper, and several have
gone to the summer work OF teachers
colleges to stin further qualify themselves
for their high calling. But large number
are too poor to go nywhere, and must seek
compensation for Washington heat in Wash
ington beauties.
Let US always be as helpful as possible
TO our teachers.

HONEST JOURNALISM.

IL believe" said Robert Collyer, that
good newspaper is as sacred in its own
way as the Bible. II has something in ii OF
the very present word of God to man, and
the very present word of man to God"
This was the great tribute of a great
man to honesty in Journalism. II ought to
he the higa ann of every newspaper man
10 deserve il.
What is an honest newspaper?
1t is one that. within its proper sphere as
"A public instrument, tells the truth with
out fear OF favor.
II is one that has ever as its guide the
best AID trueSt interests of the community,
that is faithful TO its constituents, that
uses every legitimate means 10 guard and
foster the welfare OF the people and aid
in their social and political elevation, that
upholds the just law of The land, that does
not become the ready weapon of trusts
and corporate ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
1t is rot one that invades the sancuty
Of the home for the qualification of the
scandal monger OF the satisfaction OF petty
spite.
II is not one that is ever ready to sell
its powerful columns TO those who defy
the law, who oppress the people, who
corrupt legislators and who build great
fortunes on the fallen rights OF citizens.
Newspapers are not published merely
for the health or amusement OF their editors.
They are published for financial gain. The
editor is, or ought 10 be. the servant of the
public, and he il entitled TO a just reNard
for his services. And he gets IL by honest
effort.
But the editor whose greed for wealth
causes him TO open his columns to every
powerful and oppressive schemer is dis
honest and ought to be branded as such.
The merchant who cheats his customers
has his Nemesis. Tie editor who betrays
his people ought to have Place in the
same category.

THE NEW LOAN BUREAU.

II is useless To attempt to cry down the
effort being made To establish a Working
mans Loan Bureau in this city. The prof.
ect is feasible from either a business or a
philanthropio standpoint and similar en-
terprises are successfully conducted in
several large cities. The claim that money
cannot be safely loaned at a low rate OF in
terest with household chatte!s as security
is equally absurd Generally speaking
the poorer classes are more honorable than
those who make commercial or financial
dealings a calling. The success of several
of our large mercantile enterprises which
suPpiy working people with household goods
on the installment plan is sufficient refuta-
tion Of that argument.
The newspaper or individual that tries
20 discourage the establishing of a loan
bureau for the accommodation of the
poor is no friend to the public. The har
vest of Washington Shylocks has been
abundant and oppressive, and there is no
way to prevent its continuation except
through such an institution. Prosecu
tion may check the rascality Of the usurers
for time, but the necessities OF poor
peopel demand temporary financial as
sistance. and if there is no other source
it must be obtained of Shylocks.
In Cincinnati regularly Incorporated COM
panics loan money on household chattels
at II per cent. a year This includes all
expenses, and these companies seem 10 be
prospecting. Allowing for an occasional
loss, money loaned i'll this way would bring
better returns than larger loans at per
cent, which seems to he the prevailing
rate with real estate security. oppor-
tunity now presents itself for people with
surplus money to invest it profitably, as
well as TO do great good. A wprkingman's
loan bureau would keep poor people out
OF the clutches OF Shylocks and prove to
be a good business speculation.

NOT 4 GOOD PROPHET.

Tomorrow the fiscal year for the govern
ment expires and the total deficit Will he
about $45,50O.OOO. There seems to be-
however, no disquieting fears in admins
tration circles concerning the condition
Of the Treasury, and as there are over $780,
OOO, 900 in the gold reserve, there is no
immediate need of another loan. The
expenditures have been less than was
estimated 10y Secretary Carlisle, by a good
many millions of dollars, or the deficit
would roll up such an amount as to seri-
OusIy alarm the country
1t must be admitted that Secretary Car
Isle is a poor prophet. He either does
not understand the art of figures or is an
extremely unreliable prognosticator of
probable events His estimate last De-
cember placed the total revenues of the
government for the fiscal year at S424,-
427 .74S, when in fact they fall short of
that amount by over 500 ,00O, 900. He
predicted the probable deficit at $20,-
000, 900, basng his estimate on the re-
oeipt OF $50 900, 900 from the income tax
and Sc, 100000 sugar duties, both of
which failed TO materialiZe. And had he
not placed too high an estimate on the
eXpenditu res the administration would
have piled up a debt that would have made
it a disastrous financial failure.
Before Secretary Carlisle again goes
into the prophecy business he had better
study up bis arithmetic and also take few
lessons in statistics. Such blunders by
the Secretary OF the Treasury are likely
10 make him ridiculous i'll the eyes of
other uatioR2.

CONDITIONS

wheels of commerce are again set in
motion.
The country is now in precisely the con-
dition when demand makes prosperity
inevitable. We have passed through
serious industrial depression. Too much
political and financial agitation impaired
public confidence and brought on hard
times Mills and factories were com
PEELED to shut down and a general series
of disasters ensued. But the consumption
of products continued, the stock on hand has
been exhausted and in response to com
mercial demand industries are again set
in operation and working people are bene
fitted thereby. The old rate of wages is
being restored and an era of prosperity
seems surely at hand.
Those who fail To See a moral in this i'm
proved state OF affairs must lack ordinary
comprehension. Radical politics and dem
agogy were the causes of the business de-
preston, and TO avoid its repetition work
ing people especially should sbun dema-
gogues and support only those at the polls
whom they know to be friends and upon
whom they can rely to fulfill their pledges.

A STORY WITH A MORAL.

News telegrams of Thursday announced
an increase Of wages in four of the most
important manufacturing centers of the
country, and each successive day records
an Improvement in industrial conditions
Much has been said concerning this evil
dent return OF prosperity and many rea-
sons have been given in explanation of
the change. Most OF them, however, are OF
a political nature and, therefore, are
not worthy q moments consideration.
In this country of abundant resources
and intelligent people no long period of
depression can possibly exist. Unwise
financial agitation or too much political
legislation may for time destroy public
confidence and cause a temporary sus-
pension or good times. But public con-
sumption and the demand for products
must stin continue. and when the stock
on hand is exhausted manufacturing is
once more resumed. and with that inn
pulse new life is given to trade and the

THOMAS HENRY HUXLEY

The death OF Prof Huxley robs the
scientific world of one of its brightest
lights, one that shone with undimmed
luster 60 the very end. He was one OF those
rare men who pursue their Investigations
unimpeded by their own preconceptions
and guided solely by their desire for abso-
lutte truth, and as be saw the truth he
proclaimed IL.
Science owes most to Huxley on account
Of his labors In the field OF natural history
In this branch he has greatly enriched
the store OF human knowledge, and by
his patient, thorough, and far-reaching
Investigations made clear many things that
were obscured by doubt or contention.
Huxley's most famous labors We're ex-
pended on the subject of evolution. He
elaborated and amplified Darwin's theory
OF natural selection, and what the latter
had confined I'd the animal kingdom he
boldly applied to the human race. Mans
evolution from lower organisms was to him
the truth for which he contended.
It is no wonder that with views SO rad
tcsuy different from the orthodox, he
should have dashed With people who held
FAST to the old beliefs. to whom the spon-

DENIED TO THE USURER
New Trial Not Granted to the
Capital Loan Company.
BARRETT NON EST INVENTUS
The Defeated ShyIock Can't Be Found

mons for Him in Another Case.
Ralston & Si.Idon' Defense of the
Poor a nd y eedy.

Justice Church held yesterday that he
could not entertain motion to set aside
verdict rendered by jury in case Of
the kind in which Mrs. Jennie Messer
was recently plaintiff against the Capitol
Guarantee Loan Company. Mrs Messer
sued for $50 20 usurious interest and
the costs of the suit. The plaintiffs attoT-
neys asked for jury trial, the result be-
ing against the ShylOck concern.
Mr. Lorenzo A. Bailey, defendants attor-
ney, gave notice of a motion for new trial,
which cameup forhearing yesterday before
Justice Church. Mr. A R Shikora, of the
Capitol Guarantee Loan Company, was
present. Mr. Ralston, of RaIston & Sid
dons, opposed the notion
CONFINED THE ARGUMENT.
Justice Church confined the argument
which he could consider, to the single
question whether the court could entertain
a motion of the kind made on behalf of the
company.
Mr. Bailey~made the point that there
should be a remedy in cases where veFdiets
of juries may Ice false and the results of
sympathy, prejudice, or passion. 1t was
fair to presume, he said. that the Supreme
Court of the District would provide some
remedy in cases where there are false
verdicts, so that the citizens will not be
subjected TO the whims ard pIejudices of
men who serve at II 2 cents day.
He argued that while the law denying
the right of appeal is unfair. it may b.
materially modified by additional rules
bearing on the point from the Supreme
Court. He made the point that the
phrase try" the case did not mean a
final determination, and that rule l02,
prescribing that a justice OF the peace
may in his discretion within four days
after Judgment reopen the same and grant
new trial, applied to the case in ques-
tion.
MIR. Ralston replied that Mr.. Bailey's
argument was directed 10 showing what
ought to be, rather than what is, the
law. He held that the law applicable TO
this case admitted of no argument
1t was mandatory and left the justice
without discretion. The verdict OF the
jury was The determination contem-
plated in the law and there was an end OF
the ease The language of the statute alb
