Democratic Senators might have
risen to something approaching states
manlike opposition to the majority if
they had not linked anti imperial
ISM with their plea for free trade
with the Philippines. If they should
vigorously contend that the Filipinos
ought to be treated as we now treat
the Porto Ricans, and that the half
uuintelligible decision of the Supreme
Court should not be availed of to put
tariff barriers between our islands
and our mainland they would have
strong case and could follow the
most promising political programme

District Attorney Jerome of New
York city, has proved that his heart
is in his work by the fact that he has
given up his New York home to choose
a home over on the east side, on the
borders of the ''red light district, ;"
among those who stand most in need
of his official services. For four years
he intends to live among people who
need him most and most need to
know what the district attorneys
office can do for them, joining his
family occasionally at his country
home at Lakeville. That such move
on Mr. 'Jerome's part is good politics
goes, without saying. That he has a
genius for making himself accept
able to the masses as the phrase
goes was proved by his personal sue
ess in the last municipal campaign.
But that in doing this Mr. jerome has
any other end in view than the end
of so conducting his Office as to make
1t of the greatest possible benefit to
the greatest number of his fellow citi-
zens we do not believe. The place of
district attorney does not mean enough
to him to warrant so great a sacrifice
of what to most men is the comfort of
life. For most of us, whatever our
business is, want to get away from
that business at night. Mr.. jerome has
so arranged that he will be constant
ly invaded by his business, evenings,
no less than daytimes.

the city of Toledo. Majestic build

the turmoil of the streets spurs men
on to activity. AS far as the eve
can see, the lake is dotted with
white sails, while the hail Dor teens
with vessels of all nations. Pass
ing up and down the main streets
we are broug hit face to face with
many evils, so prevalent in large
cities and our hearts ache for life's
unfortunates. The young and IN
experienced boy from the rural
district IS ignorant of the many
dangers awaiting the unwary in a
city, and is fully unprepared 10
meet the advances of corrupt men
and fallen women; heedIessly he
goes on step by step until at some
unguarded moment he is drawn
into the net of vice and sin. But
on the other hand ample provision
has been made by good people and
many are the sheltering Ravens Of
refuge which invite the poor mis-
guided traveller, many are the
missions where the evenings can be
spent and where good Christian
workers are engaged in their laud
able undertakings to bring sun
shine into otherwise cherries lives.
1t is sad fact that some men will
turn a deaf ear 70 all the kind re-

emotions OF their better nature;
crime seems to have to them a
peculiar charm, invariably drawing
