The latest English complaint of
American competition comes from the
millers. Its cause is the popularity
of American flour in London, and the
cause of that popularity seems to be
that the flour sent from this coun-
try to the English market is put up
in small bags, for the benefit of the
small consumers, and yet is sold at
the same rate as flour in barrels. This
way of packing flour is something
quite new to the English -four mill
ers, and they are seriously alarmed
over it. The best way out of the diff

A white house attache, speaking of
the presidents recent effort to pur-
chase a carriage team, says: "Any
number of splendid horses with short
tails are to be had, but the president
will not have that kind. He is OPP
posed to the docking of horses tails,
believing the practice cruel and I'M
cessary. He will not indorse the
fad by driving a pair of short-tailed
horses" With the head of the Ameri-
can government thus committed def
nitely to the policy of humane treat
ment for the horse there is at least
some prospect of reform.

The pine forests of the northwestern
states are not only going, but are near
~ gone. The "stumpage," meaning
the value of the standing trees, in
Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin is
now sold at eight and nine dollars a
thousand feet. This is the price that
the best lumber was sold for in the
early days of the industry. Then the
"stumpage" was sold for so cents a
thousand feet. The first pine trees
were simply slaughtered and no plans
were adopted for growing new pine in
their places. The result is that the
pine regions are deforested.

litor OF The Evening Star:

To the Editor OF The Evening Star:
Sherirs too often plead inability to keep
back mob Of lynchers and weakly yield
up their charges. Such impotence Of off,
cial conduct is clearly refuted In a recent
dispatch published In The Star Of August
12} announcing a lynching near Savannah,
Ga. The dispatch stated: There was a
mob Of 400 men who clamored for his life.
but the leaders of the mob, numbering less
than dozen. carried into execution the
plans of vengeance they had formed. The
rest of the mob was kept at distance and
was not allowed to come within 100 yards
of the place where Washington met his
death" Here is the whole case In a nut
shell. Mobs themselves are not bold. Only
a few hot-headed leaders do anything the
others being mere on-lookers. If few ir-
responsible, excited leaders can keep back
a crowd Of hundreds, surely @ sheriff, with
official authority to employ assistance can
to deal directly with the few mob leaders
If sheriffs We're accustomed to resist as
they should lynchings would be less COM
mon. Easy success emboldens the self-con-
stituted dispensers of justice who use the
mob simply to shield their own defiance Of
law and order. The new move in Alabama
is In the right direction. Officers who are
too weak to maintain the honor of .heir
responsibility should be deposed. The above
instance Is evidence that a sheriff and his
posse could keep back large mob IL they
were to try. NJ. L. s.

Street Nomenclature.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
At last the suburbanites seem to be
aroused at the contemplated change IN the
street nomenclature Yet conditions exist
ing In these sections require some changes
In the present nomenclature. and Wnlle
the one suggested seems little radical
perhaps, all things considered, 1t is as
good as could be devised. No one ques-
tons the necessity Of some changes IN
these sections. so that uniformity can De
wrought from proixity, when made &C
cording to some tentative plan. If SIM
plicity be consulted and a seeming tend
ency to confusion avoided. But while, as
urged, the suburban changes may be nee
essary. a halt should be called when 1t Is
sought to agitate the matter Of remaining
the streets of the city proper.
In Tuesdays Star some nameless local
official is quoted as saying that the re-
naming Of the suburban streets is only
preliminary to the remaining of all, and
that the plans ultimately contemplate and
involve the entire city. / do not believe
that such is the intention of the Commits
sioners, and, in fact, do not think that
they have as yet even given the matter
official consideration. The eminent Amer
lean plan, of naming our streets has been
a matter of purely private agitation. 1t
is said to have originated with Mr.. JUS
tlCe ftaSner, ana Inc dlStOTiCdl society
took 1t up energetically. Although numer-
Gus bills have been introduced in Con-
gress upon this subject none have as yet
emanated from a committee room. The
reason is obvious. Our citizens do not de-
sire a change.
The present system Is eminently salts
factory, and, moreover, is such that 1t can
be readily understood by any one. Not So
however, with the eminent American plan
1t appears that the fundamental idea OF
this plan is predicated upon confusion.
Our present A B G veterans have with
stood the onslaughts of the street nomen-
clature reformers for more than a decade
and 1t does not appear that they will
capitulate at this late day even to such
heavily uniformed volunteers as Addison
Benjamin and Campbell. Our citizens dc
not believe in placing sentimental and his
torical considerations, interviewer with
Commissions and complications (the pro-
posed plan) before simplicity and conven-
fence the present plan). If this scheme
should by any possibility be enacted II
would surely be local calamity.
