Until recently the rush of seekers after
MONIES has been to the far west-a great
wave OF anxious humanity has swept
across prairie and mountain to find a place
where labor would bring forth sufficient
remuneration. That much of the migration
was unreasoning and to some extent un-
wise has been shown very clearly and now
comes definite Information that there is
IN prospect an extensive movement from
the middle west to the southeast. Nego-
tfattons are about concluded for the pur-
chase by syndicate of an enormous tract
or land In one Of the southern Atlantic
states; land which is to be occupied by
northern and northwestern farmers who
nave not been entirely successful and who
feel as though their efforts would be more
profitable were they put forth in latitude
rich In rain and sunshine. The expert
ment Will undoubtedly be watched by thou
sands who have well-founded climatic OBJ
Jections to residence on the northern from
tier and who. If sufficient inducements
are held forth. " ould be glad enough to
move into the land of Dixie. No one need,
however. imagine that the migrative tide
Will flow eastward in great volume There
Is opportunity In the south but the vast
plains and the everlasting hills of the far
west will always be magnets of tremendous
power.

1t Is noted by some observer that the de-
batting society and the literary circle are
again coming Into vogue through the coun-
try and he draws from this phenomenon
optimistic deductions saying that the de-
hating society is a sure index of the state
of the public mind. There Is no question
that In the debating society young men
and women learn much that is useful to
them. In these days Of great activity and
intense interest in public questions the
lyceum or debating club can be made an
excellent training school for the future
citizen. Women. too, are such factors in
the public welfare just now that they find
natural place in that company. Intel
ligent reading Of the newspapers, followed
by we'll regulated, sensible discussion of
the merits of matters OF timely interest,
stimulates healthy activities of the brain
and makes men more amenable to good
laws. and more ready to protest sensibly
against bad ones. Many dangerous tenden-
cies OF the present day may be Offset by
the spread Of intelligence among the masses,
through the schools, through the news
papers, and through tine associations of
men and women in all parts of the country
for mutual improvement and enlighten-
nent. 1E such a country as this the de-
batting club has al excellent function.

Of earnings. In other words, 1t is to be,

Itself, dead open and shut" The gov

there will be little sympathy in the minds
CT the people for the gamblers If they
should finally fall under this rule, but as a
business principle 1t is not an equitable
proposition to disregard the losings while
taxing the winnings. If the tax thus ap-
pied were part of general movement to
discourage gambling there would be some
reason In 1t, but as the case stands the
idea is put one more Illustration of the ab-
surd looseness Of the law, the negligence
SHOWN In Its construction, and the impos-
si5iiity of logical consistency In Its applica-
ton. Public confidence in the measure is
now so thoroughly shaken that a few more
such absurdities can do no harm.

1t is a curious phase of the general mud
dIe.over the income-tax law that the first
move to apply that piece Of vague legisla-
ton to the fraternity of gamblers should be
made in Kentucky. Collector Desha Breck-
tnridge has the honor of originating the
opinion that this class of citizens Is covered
by the act, and the final decision of the
Commissioner Of Internal Revenue will be
awaited with some interest. 1t cannot be
thought that such an effort. If successful in
the beginning. will net the government any
considerable revenue, for the number of
gamblers who make an annual "rake-otf'
OF over $4,000 is very small indeed. Then,
too, they can hardly be expected to be
strictly accurate ia their returns, and there
Is no known method Of proving charges Of
.falee returns against them. Collector
Breckenridge. however. goes too far 1t
seems, when he undertakes to establish the

gamblers are to be taxed, his losings must

Up to this time Russia's bluff in behalf

Up to this time Russia's bluff in behalf
Of China appears to be an utter failure,
for In spite Of all that has been printed in
Russia's official organs and all that has
been done by Russian diplomats, the cold.
immovable fact remains that Japan and
China are at peace with each other, and
on terms that include possession of con-
siderable slice of what prior to the war
v as Chinese territory. There is official
confirmation of the statement that a treaty
of peace has today been signed at Shimo-
nCseki, and 1t Is announced that the
treaty provides for the independence of
Corea, the permanent cession of Formosa
to Japan, the retention by the Japanese of
all the conquered places, and of the ter
ritory east Of the Lao river the payment
by China of an indemnity Of s1OO0O0.00O.
and. most important of all. an offensive
and defensive alliance between China and
Japan. This latter provision Is of much
greater consequence to Russia and to the
other European powers interested in the
east than all the remainder of the treaty
combined. The independence of Corea could
not seriously interfere with any of Russia's
known plans. nor would Japanese possess
sion Of captured territory be menace to
any of Europe's commercial schemes, but
the offensive and defensive alliance will
prevent any combination of England,
France. Russia or Germany with the
celestials for the purpose of humbling the
Japanese or to shut out less favored ma
tier especially the United States-from
the rich markets that are slowly but surely
being opened up In the hitherto almost in
accessible empire. Controlled by Japan

but capable. nevertheless, of caring for it.
self and of compelling worldwide respect
1t is possible that China may feel as
though the Japanese demands are exorbi-
tant. but thoughtful and unprejudiced peo-
pie must admit that there is now prospect
OF more material and immediate success
for China than would have been a possi-
b,lity within the next fifty years had the
Chinese people been left to their own de-
vices.

On the day when the Supreme Court of
the United States made public its conglom-
crate decision on the income tax, The Star
editorially suggested the advisability of a
rehearing Of that important cause. Since
then it has daily become more evident that
a rehearing is absolutely necessary. for
without 1t there will be no possibility of
avoiding serious complications. The court
was organized as all such tribunals should
be. so as to prevent indecision, but the in
disposition of Justice Jackson left the court
evenly divided on a momentous question.
1t Is hoped that Justice Jackson may soon
be well enough to come to Washington, if
only to hear the arguments and record his
judgment as to this particular matter.

In the public interest The Star suggests
that the District Commissioners and the
authorized representatives Of the Balti.
more and Ohio Railroad Company lay aside
their minor differences OF opinion, come to-
gether in practical. business conference
and by so doing provide the public with the
safeguards which are needed along the
tracks operated in the District by the Bal
timore and Ohio railroad. The court has
decided that the regulations framed and
promulgated by the Commissioners for the
purpose Of compelling steam railroad cor
porations to erect fences and equip cross
tngs with safety-gates and watchmen are
void, thus technically releasing the rail-
road companies of legal responsibility 1t
Is made evident in the news columns OF
The Star today that but little while ago
the Baltimore and Ohio Company expressed
Willingness to do whatever could he re-
garded as necessary to protect the public
from dangers incidental to grade crossings;
the willingness extending beyond the limits
OF what could be required under the strict
terms of the law. The public safety should
be the first consideration. and neither the
Commissioners nor the railroad authorities
should permit any feeling of personal re-
sentiment to postpone for a single day the
protection of the lives and limbs Of citizens
which Is promised by these safeguards.
