1t Shows the Patriotic Spirit.

The little bits of red, white and
blue ribbon that everyone IS wear
ing are small and not very con-
spicuous. They are mere scraps,
but in the aggregate these scraps
form so many thousands of yards
that the manufacturers have been
kept hustling making them. An
enterprislng weaver years ago in
augurated flag ribbon as a con-
venient way of supplying these
small flags to enthusiastic political
campaigners. The ribbons were
eagerly bought by dealers, but
didn't sell so readily and were
stored away. The factories quit
making them. The present de-
mand for the little flags, however,
has exhausted the old stock, and
the printing press has taken the
place of the loom, converting rolls
Of white ribbon and barrels of red
and blue ink into American flags
for scarfs and belts for the women
and badges for the men. And
still the demand continues so far
in excess of the supply that it
now seems as If the war will be
over before the makers can posi-
bly, catch up.

THE "INSANITY" DODGE.
An Iowa Judge Opens up a Way to
Prevent the Cheating of Justice.

A recent decision of the Iowa
supreme court deserves attention
as suggesting a sensible and sum
mary method of putting stop to
the Widespread abuse of the i'll
sanity plea of defense of criminals.
This plea has become SO notorious
a subterfuge as last resort for
cheating justice that it has long
ago met deserved disapproval, but
TINS far no effective means of
abolishing it has been found. 1t
has rightly been held that it was
better to let some guilty men
escape rather than establish a
policy that would bar out the plea
for insanity when it happened to
be valid. The decision of the
Iowa court suggests simple solu-
ton of the matter. 1t holds that
if at any time in the course of the
trial doubt shall be raised as to
the sanity of the defendant a
special trial for insanity may i'm
mediately be ordered. If a jury
of medical experts finds that the
defendent is really insane the
criminal trial will at once be
dropped. But this shall by no
means give the defendant his lib
erty. On the contrary, he shall be
sent to the ward for criminal in
sane at the penitentiary for an in
definite time. If the investigation
of. experts, on the other hand,
develops the fact that the defen-
dant is sane, then the trial under
the original indictment will be re-
sumed, and with the insanity dodge
eliminated from the defense.

Must Pay For
Being Patriotic.
INSURED MEMBERS OF THE
KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS INFORMED
THEIR POLICIES ARE VOID
WHILE THEY ARE IN
THE ARMY.
Protection Lost When Most Needed.

The Knights of Pythias is prac-
ticaily the only fraternal or bust
ness organization that has nullified
the insurance policies Of members
who have answered President Nc
Kin1eys call for volunteers.
There are many Knights of
Pythias in the army now encanped
at Southern points or about to
start for Cuba. News that their
insurance policies had been made
void reached these volunteers
recently, and they have been writ
ing home to inquire about this
strong damper that has been
placed on their patriotism. Many
of the Knights were unwilling to
believe that such a course had
been decided upon by the officers
of the order, and much dissatis-
faction over the matter exists
among members who have not
gone to the front.
1t is a fact, however, that an
official notice has been issued by
the Board of Control. nullifying
the policies of members who have
Joined the army.
There are $4,000 members of
the Knights of Pythias in the En-
dowment Rank. A considerable
number of the men insured in the
order now are at the front with
New York and New Jersey regi-
ments. Some Of these men have
been paying on their policies in the
oroer for years. With all of the
life insurance companies continu-
ing in force the policies of volun-
teers, these men are surprised that
their insurance in the Kn ghts of
Pythlas should be declared void
Just at time when they are most
anxious to have it in force.

TAX RATE
TO BE HIGHER?
IT is LIKELY TO REACH
S3.15 THIS YEAR.
Unless Mayor Mclean Uses
His Vetoeing Power.
No Demand For PaSSaiC Prop
erty Now.

lust at this time, when every
thing is at war prizes, when money
is hard to get, and when the peo
pie are bending under the burden
of the many improvements of the
past years and the great expense
of maintaining them, it is dlscour-
aging to learn that the appropria-
tons for this year are likely to
foot up over $22. 900 more than last
year, or total of $377S3I.oo.
There is no question but that
the high rate of taxation in Pas
sale is a serious set back to persons
who would locate here. Real
estate men tell us there is little or
no demand for property in Passaic
and that advertisements in New
York papers bring few or no res
ponses. More than two-thirds OF the
property in the chill" section of
the town is for sale, even for less
than it cost. At no time in the
history of Passalc was there ever
so many houses vacant. Houses
with all improvements and lawn
and gardens which ten or twelve
years ago readily rented at SIS
per month without improvements
find no takers now even at the
same figure.
These are matters which should
receive attention from the Board
of Trade above all others. 1t
could not lend it's influence to any
better result than that looking to
the suspension for time at least
of the unnecessary expenditure
of the public moneys. Present
Improvement will last us for
some time. Give the tax
payers a chance to catch up.
Whatever new expenditures must
be made let it hem the line of
improving our educational facill-
ties

CHILDRENS' DAY.

The beautiful costom of having
a "Chlldren's Sunday" is one to be
commended. Passaic churches on
Sunday were in the hands of the
children and most of the buildings
were crowded to their utmost.
The services were appropriate and
patriotic. The little people OF to-
day will be the men and women
of years to come, and the lesson
taught them by the exercises of
their particular Sunday will have
good result. 1t is in their hands
that the churches will be in the
future, and the churches are wise
to-day IN making them feel their
interests are not wholly over
shadowed by those of the old folks.

American Theatre.

Following the extremely successful in
uguration of their light opera summer
season at the American Theatre so
brilliantly ushered in by Madeleine or
the Magic Kiss, the Castle Square
Opera Company will revive on Monday
night Gilbert & Sullivan's brightly
picturesque comic opera the Condo
iiers.' The revival of the "Gondol1ers'
will be the first of series of reproduc-
tions of the Gilbert and Sullivan operas.
The Roof Garden in connection with
the theatre is one of the coolest and
most delightful resorts in all New York.

Fire at Captain shearman's Residence

An oil stove became over heated
in the basement of Captain c..
Shearman's residence Wednesday
evening and blazing up set fire to
the floor beams and ceiling. Mrs.
Shearman was on the front porch
with a lady friend at the time, the
house maid having gone out.
When the fire was discovered the
house was filled with heat and
smoke. An alarm from box IS
brought the fire department, but
the fire had been put out with a
garden hose by some of the neigh
bors. The damage will probably
reach $50. Capt. Shearman ex-
presses great satisfaction with the
manner in which the fire men
managed the affair, no damage
whatever having been done by
them with water or otherwise, as
has been stated in the daily press.

DR.. Hutton Has Resigned.

The Board of Education Tues
day night decided to dispense with
the services of principal and ex-
superintendent Hutton, who has
had charge of the public schools
for about fourteen years. This
action was surprise to many. The
Board claims to justify its action
on the ground that DR.. Hutton is
now too old to successfully con-
duct it's educational matters. A
new man will be engaged as soon
as possible DIR. Hutton is about
sixty-fve years old and by many
is believed to be capable yet.
Since the foregoing was put in
type DR.. Hutton has handed in his
resignation, without waiting to be
relieved"

No Board Of Trade
Can Work Wonders
Without the Aid of the Right
Kind of Citizen.
He Is Economical without ParsimOny,
and Encourages Home Enterprises.


The thriving city of Middletown
New York owes much of its sue
cess to its Board of Trade but
principally to its public spirited
citizens-men who believe in en-
couraging home enterprises. With
out such men no Board of Trade
canIaccompllsh anything. A town
or city is just what its citizens make
it. Given the right sort of people
and desert waste will be trans
formed into a garden that shall
bloom like the rose and stragg
ling settlement into a thriving
city. Given the wrong sort of
citizens, and all advantages of soil
climate, geographical position and
wealth will go for naught. Manu-
factures do not make the city. 1t
is the city that makes the manu-
factures. The stockyards and the
grain elevators did not make Chic
ago; pork packing did not make
Cincinnattf; railroad center did
not make Indianapolis. In each
case the city is the cause and the
business the effect. These cities
had public spirited men, and they
attracted the kind of business
which is located in them-that is
all.
And what is the right kind of a
citizen? He is the man who does
not look across the continent for
an investment, but spends his
money at home and encourages
home enterprises. The right kind
of citizen does not grumble about
high taxes, because he has sense
enough to know that taxes must
be high in a growing city, and
that if low taxes are a desideratum
he must go to a place that has
stopped growing or that never
has grown much; but he protests
against reckless or extravagant
expenditure of the public moneys,
and his protests usually have
weight. The right kind of citi-
zen knows the distinction between
the virtue of economy, which
avoids all waste, but spends money
freely for necessary public i'm
provemeuts, and the vice of parsl-
mony, that spends nothing unless
absolutely compelled to. The
right kind of citizen may not be a
wealthy man-lndeed he is more
frequently not one-but he cheer
fully helps support the public
schools and churhes, and he is in
favor of the public library and
Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton.
The right kind of citizen be-
lieves in we'll lighted streets and
sidewalks, for he knows that vice
and crime hate gaslight and cleo
trio light almost as much as they
do daylight, and that they delight
in darkness He also knows that
these things give good impress
sion to strangers. The right kind
of citizen also is fully aware of the
fact that no expenditure brings
so great return to the citizen as
that which he pays in taxes pro-
vided it be honestly and judiclous-
ly applied.
The wrong kind of citizen sees
none of these things and does
none of them.
