MOUNT HOLLY citizens are not the only
persons who desire moderation in the
firing Of explosives on the Fourth of July.
The residents of Moorestown presented a
petition to the township committee to
have the habit abolished. The New York
Tribune has this to say on the subject:
"Dwellers in New York who were un-
able to leave the city the day before the
Fourth, and to stay away, had at least
one comfort. Not every street was
turned into an inferno If the small boy
did not moderate his transports until he
brought them to a vanishing point. he
was at all events a shade less offensive
than he has often been on the great sum
mer holiday. But from midnight on
Thursday to midnight on Friday the
casualties resulting from the misuse of
fireworks or pistols, and reported by
Police Headquarters and the various hos
pitfalls in Manhattan and the The Bronx
reached the grim total of 1875 This
record casts that of July 4, 1901, into the
shade, and, of course, many cases never
reach public knowledge, being treated by
private physicians. The list as it stands
is appalling enough in all conscience We
read of one boy with the sight of his right
eye destroyed by a firecracker; of a six
year girl receiving a bullet in her
head-quite by accident of course-and
of young man of twenty three who fires
off toy cannon only to have it explode
and fracture his skull with one of its
fragments HE is at the emergency hos
pital and will probably die, says the re-
port concerning this last individual.
Other cases might be cited But are
not these enough to show the monstrous
abnormality of our Fourth Of July per
formances2
''The sickening thing about it all is that
these horrors are as unnecessary as they
are idiotic. On the ignorance, careless
ness and even malice of those who cause
the tragedies of the day we need not
pause. What. indeed, can one say of the
young fiend who deliberately launches a
lighted firecracker at passing horse,
causing him to bolt and throw the occu-
pant of the carriage he is drawing to
either death or manning, and certainly to
great nervous shock, on the stones
What we are chiefly concerned to notice
is not this or that specific manifestation of
Fourth of July madness, but the madness
itself. Why must we put up with itl Is
there some supernatural and sacrosanct tie
between patriotic emotion and insane fury
Is it impossible for great nation to be at
once proud of itself and dignified In
short, ought we not, as intelligent people,
to be ashamed of ourselves when we al
low the abuses of the Fourth of July to 90
on unchecked year after Year,"
