How Editors Are Importuned 10

The practice of excepting things ont

for daily newspaper to do its duty

newspapers not to publish the facts.
There is hardly week In the year

Too Much For the Flies.

A young man In Philadelphia, who
has plenty of time to devote to scien
tific questions. has discovered that
music has great terrors for flies. He
learned the fact from observing at a
park concert that while the audience
was greatly annoyed by the insects the
musicians in the shell were free from
all Inconvenience.
His conclusion is that the sound
waves from the shell kept back the
flies and that although hundreds of
them struggled to reach the shell they
might as well have attempted TO fly in
the face of a tornado. and thus. he de-
clares, Enclosed by magic curtain
made of their own music the musicians
played Wagner unannoyed by the sticky
and pestering files"

This sum OF S6,O00.000, known officially

only amount of chancery for which
owners are not absolutely visible, and
for O large part of these dormant funds
owners are pretty certainly known.

The GREAT DESTROYER.
The New York "Joutpal' on
Sunday Saloons"

The greatest moral objection to Sum
day opening is this:
AT the door of the American saloon,
family life ends.
If you open the saloon on Sunday you
will diminish family life on that day.
The wife who has worked hard and
alone all the week, taking care of the
house and of the children, will be left
alone again on the one family day.
The children whose father leaves for
work while they sleep and returns after
dark have now q Glance to get acquain-
ted with him on Sunday.
If you open the Sunday saloon for
him you will take him away from his
children on the one day that might
unite them. You will remove him from
the atmosphere which develops the
noblest traits Of character, and what
will you give him as a substitute?
If you open the door of the saloon for
the man who thinks he wants it open,
what will you do for the women and
the children who know that they want
it closed?
Turning to the personal liberty plea
OF the saloonist, the Journal proceeds:
All Americans believe in liberty
the fullest liberty.
But what is liberty and what is L.
cense?
Is not the life of humanity struggle
against temptations, and effort by each
to do what he knows he should do, to
conquer what he knows he should con-
quero
Individually we are weak, and we
agree to make and abide by laws that
shall do us all good.
If you say, "a man should be free to
get drinks on Sunday if he wants to, -
some one else may say, ga man should
be free to gamble or smoke opium in
public places If he wants to-"
But we all agree to forbid public
gambling, and the opening of opium
dens.
OF those who demand the right to
drink on Sunday, tens of thousands in
their hearts are really glad to be pro
tected agsinst themselves.
That man should be coerced, tha,
it should be necessary to control him
seems sad.
But here is one working man, with 9
taste for drink, made excusable per
haps by hard work and poor fare. And
here are biz five children and his wife
Should the needs of the six be consid
cred, or the appetite of the one?
If you say that blackmailing of saloor
keepers can only be prevented by Sun
day opening, we deny your statement
On the same theory, gambling ST ould
be open.
If you say that the popular vot.
should settle the question, we can only
say that of course popular vote would
but such a vote, If 1t declared for Sun
day opening, would only represent one
half the adult male population, and +
would not represent At all the will o
those most deeply commemorative wo
men. Nor would it express the inter
est OF another great body-the chill
ldren.
| But the saloon Of today, the saloon q
quick drinking, Of hard drinking, o
selfish isolation for men, can never b.
an addition to the Sabbath. To opel
on Sunday the actual American salool
means to hurt the family, rather thai
to promote liberty.
