THE PRESIDENTS SPEECH.

The speech made by President Nc
Kinley at the banquet of the Home
Market club in Boston last evening will
be read with deep interest. And the
general impression will be, we think
that the President could not have said
what he had to say better. The speech
was clear and hopeful statement Of
the situation as he views it. He is not
discontinued with the present or afraid
Of the future. He believes that we
have been divinely called to benefit the
Philippines and he believes that we are
going to adequately answer the call.
Until. he says, congress shall direct
otherwise, it will be the duty of the
executive to hold the Philippines, CIV
ing to the people thereof peace and Or
der and beneficent government, Offer
Ing them every opportunity to prose-
cute their lawful pursuits, encouraging
them in their industries, making them
know and feel that we are their friends,
not their enemies, that their good is our
aim, that their welfare Is our welfare
but that neither their aspirations nor
ours can be realized until our authority
is acknowledged and unquestioned.
The Presidents speech will not suit
Aguinaldo and his followers and it will
not suit those in this country to whom
Aguinaldo has been looking for some
support But there is no imperialism
in it and it is animated by the idea
that we only Conquer to save"

| it profit us if we gain great wealth as
| a people, and vet fail to give ourselves
| time to enjoy the results of our labor?
If all were united in a recognition of
| the legitimate demands of recreation,
| some way could easily be devised by
! which it could be secured to every in
dividual. After the state has educated
| it's children to reasonable study hours,
with long vacations and weekly holt
days, why shouldi it then thrown them on
| to the world and remove its watchful
care over their welfare, instead of pro-
viding such laws as shall prevent over
work? An equitable distribution of
working hours for each laborer would
also tend to prevent a surplus of labor
ers, l. e., instead of one man working
sixteen hours, let two men work eight
hours each.
If everyone so disposed could legally
claim an eight hour working day, with
a half of a secular day, and all of sun
day each week, and a two weeks yearly
vacation and if public opinion would
support, each one in using his privi-
leges, the moral and physical status of
an enlightened people. well instructed

complished in several ways. Saturday
afternoon might be assigned as legal
holiday for all who wish to take it,
but If not desirable from the point of
| view of business and convenience, for
all the people to take their recreation
at the same time, let different days be
provided, or, better still let each jndi-
vidual be left free to make his own ar
engagements, SO that all may share in
the things of life which are freely given
to us, richly to enjoy. To obviate all
difficulties which might arise, a bill
might be framed which would give GER
tain rights to each individual thus en-
abling employees and employers to make
their own arrangements to suit indi-
vdual cases. Some such measure seems
in accordance with Our advancing civil
lzaton. Why should an educated man
who from choice or necessity, turns his
attention to manufacturing or bust
ress, be compelled, after taking UP his
lifework, to a mere treadmill Of exist
ence which affords no opportunity for
the expansion of his nature in the va
rety of ways which his early training
taught him to enjoy? The busy walks
of life would not be so undesirable If
they also afforded opportunity for
broader culture, and little more of the
Christian spirit put into practice might
easily result In some arrangement the
benefit of which could hardly be esti-
mated. COLUMBIA.

An IMPORTANT QUESTION.

Must cities make their streets safe for
An action for damages against the city
of New York was begun by wheelman
who had been injured in an accident
caused by defective pavement. The
city admitted that there had been a hole
about two feet square and five inches
deep in the pavement, but it contended
that the street was in fit condition for
ordinary vehicles, such as trucks and
carriages, and that the plaintiff rode
through 1t at his own risk Moreover,
1t was argued, the city could not keep
the streets safe at all points for bicy-
clists, and any person using a bicycle
on them must use a higher degree of
care than a driver, and especially at
night. On the other hand the plea was
made that as the city made better
streets according to the demands of
civilization it also assumed greater re-
sponsibilities, and that as the asphalt
pavements had been laid largely for the
accommodation Of bicyclists the city
was responsible for injuries to bicyclists
more than for those to drivers of ordi-
nary vehicles The plaintiff commended
that the roadways should be kept in
condition that would insure the safety
of Wlleelmen, Just as sidewalks are kept
in repair for pedestrians. The lower
court dismissed the case, but upon ap-
new trial was ordered
1t will be interesting to see the end
of this case. The question raised in it
is important to all concerned.

THE REWARD or MERIT.

The reappointment of Highway Com
missioner Macdonald is plain case of
reward of merit. Mr.. Macdonald has
been the chief figure in the good roads
movement in this State since it really
began to move. He has done faithful
and efficient work under dscouraging
circumstances, and his ability, skill and
zeal have made an impression in all
parts of the State. What he has done
IN trying times gives cheering promise
of what he will be able to do when the
times are more propitious, as they now
bid fair to be. If comprehensive and
far-sishted plan for good and nom polit-
ical roads in this State can now be
formed and carried out the State will
greatly profit by it.

The Sunday auestion.

To the Editor Of the Journal and Courier:
The bill before the legislature provid-
ing that it shall be legally right to use
Sunday as a day on which to play ball,
race horses, etc, presents serious ques-
tons
AS a Christian commonwealth, which
has it's basis in proper attitude to-
ward God and man, what are the ideas
which should be embodied in the laws
of our state which are to mould and de-
| velop the character OF our youth =?
Should not our laws recognize the
| whole man--not merely his bodily ma
ture, but also his spiritual nature, and
provide proper laws to minister to his
entire well being? While the ancient
law has fulfilled it's mission of "schooI
| MASTER" and brought us to a recogni
ton OF the fact that the Sabbath was
made FOR man." and that therefore 1t is
not sinful to use it's hours in doing
Whatever Is for mans well being, it is
also true that it's use as a quiet day is
very essential to his we'll being, for in
the present organization of society,
Sunday is the only time in which a
very large class of people have the
leisure to obtain for themselves that
spiritual refreshment which Is an abso-
lutte requisite of true living. and also
in which to carry on mission work for
the rescue Of the lost humanity which
throngs our cities and villages
Ii every soul was in harmony with it's
creator, and our hours OF labor and
recreation were so arranged that a
proper amount of time was given to
each, there would, obviously, be no
need to urge Sunday as a day of spec
ial rest and spiritual recreation, but talk
ing things as they are, Sunday as a
day Of rest from our usual employments
and abstinence from purely secular
amusements, is a precious boon which
can be fully appreciated only by those
who use it as a day of spiritual re-
freshment. Let us do nothing to inter-
fere with it's peacefulness and blessed
opportunities, but rather to enhance
them.
There is, however another side to the
matter. This lies in the important fact
that physical recreation in the shape
of ball playing and other bodily eXer-
cises in the open air, should be encour-
aged for the sake of a healthy, we'll
adjusted body and mind. This being
the case, let us acknowledge it's i'm
portance as cheerfully as we recognize
the importance of hospitals and other
philanthropic institutions (for we all
know IAN ounce of prevention is worth
a pound of cure") and therefore set
aside a special time when the people
shall have a legal right to secure for
themselves the benefit and refreshment
which contact with Mother Nature can
so readily impart.
More and more the necessity of rec

HELP FOR ENGLISH DRUNK

HELP FOR ENGLISH DRUNKARDS.
| An act was passed in the British par
| lament last year for the establishment
of reformatories for inebriates 1t will
soon go into force, and the home Sec
rotary has sent circular to all chair
men of Quarter Sessions explaining how
it may be worked effectively 1t deals
with two classes of criminal inebriates--
first, those who, under the influence of
drink, perpetrate serious crimes, pun
ishable with Imprisonment or penal SER
vitude; and, secondly, habitual drunk
ards, who are guilty Of the various mi
nor offenses which make them public
nuisances and entail liability to fines or
short terms of Imprisonment. Both
classes may be committed for any term
up to three years to Certified Inebriate
Reformatories." These institutions
may be set up either by local authorities
or by the efforts of individual or COM
bined philanthropy, and in order to en-
courage such endeavors and to secure
the success of the act the treasury has
agreed to contribute a weekly grant of
sixteen shillings and ten shillings and
sixpence for each inmate committed re-
spectively under the first and the sec
ond categories. Public notification viii
be made as each reformatory is certi-
fed, and courts will be informed as to
the establishments best suited for any
cases they have in hand The home
secretary points out that there need be
no hesitation about committing Offend
ers of the less serious class for long
period, as the system of treatment will
be remedial and not penal, and he init
mates that there is a consensus of the
best expert opinion that something like
years detention is really essential if
any good is to be done. For the pres
ent there will be nc State inebriate re-
fornatory.
