GOOD ADVICE.

1t is not surprising that negroes all over the
country have been made restless by the recent
revelations of the new slavery and the Wlue-
spread lynching Outrages against their race
Neither is it surprising that some negro leaders
are inclined to more radical courses than tne
counseIlors of moderation like Booker T. WASH
ington Never, however. did Washingtons
strong good sense appear to better advantage
than in his latest address on the duties OF the
two races in the face of the present conditions.
His phrase. Let nothing induce US to descend
10 the level of the mob" should be the motto or
every negro teacher and leader, and it should
shame the white Representative citizens" who'
while they do not themselves approve of MOB
rule. never can be brought to take active and
efficient means to prevent it, If the negro in his
ignorance and general helplessness can keep
order under oppression, surely the superior
white. with the courts under his control should
be able to do so. Washington. instead of stand
ing as so many of our white leaders oo' Tor
his race right or wrong, frankly tells his peo-
ple their duty He does not encourage them to
think of the wrongs inflicted upon them, but TO
sur1nount all temptations to idleness and crime
When they talk about lawless punishment
meted out to members Of their race, he tells
them to look at home and train up their sons
not to attack women. How few white men
under corresponding CIRCUMSTANCES LelA tHSlA
incensed fellows to punish their own lawbreak-
ers and lynchers?
Yet Washington is by no means ready to see
his race take a degraded position. He is as
anxious as anybody for its dignity, but he
knows the difference between true and false
dignity He knows that men who defend their
country's flag need not fear reprOach for cow
ardice If they do not resort to disorder in re-
sentiment Of disorder. He also stands as firmly
as can be on the doctrine Of equal laws, and his
appeal to white men for that equality of treat
ment is one to which every white man who be-
lieves at all in human rights must cordially re-
! spond. Nobody wants ignorance to rule knowl-
| edge or worthlessness to take precedence of
worth, but simple justice requires that the law
| treat every person according to his individual
| merit, not according to accidents of color or
! condition. Now the law calls for such treat
ment and what the law calls for the community
must be made to give or anarchy takes the
place OF government

AFTER THE FOURTR.

The brutal debauch OF noise and stencil and
fire and death is over. AT least we may hope it
viii not be prolonged greatly into this trad1-
tional day of rest and peace. Tomorrow the
country will take up again the practical round
of work, a considerable proportion Of which for
some time will be the repairing so far as possi-
bic, of the ravages of the Glorious Fourth"
There are burned buildings to rebuild There
are sick and MANNED people to be nursed back
toward health. There are blinded and crippled
victims to be cared for all the rest Of their
lives There are the dead to be buried and
some days yet before all the ghasuy returns
are in. Could they all be compiled on a single
scroll they would ''staggeC humanity"
American independence was the most precious
thing ever secured by this nation. 1t deserves
all possible remembrance and fitting commem-
Grafton. But it is not fitting that the celebra-
ton should cost more than did the thing itself
Yet we suppose there were few battles in the
Revolutionary War more costly, in the cOnsump-
ton of money, in the destruction Of property
and in the loss Of limb and life than was yes
terday's celebration; and it would not be rash
to reckon that the aggregate of losses in Fourth
Of July celebrations during the century and
more has been greater than that in all the bat
ties of the Revolution. Such a record may to
some unthinking ones denote high degree of
patriotic ardor. To the judicious mind it rather
denotes a low degree of patriotic common sense

PRoRIr SHARING soREMES.

Some portions OF Mr.. Carnegie's address on
assuming the presidency of the British Iron and
Steel Institute a few weeks ago were fairly
well reported by cable at that time. Other feat
ures are more adequately revealed by the lib
eraI reproduction Of the text in 'Cassier's Maya
zine" for July. 1t thus appears that the speaker
discussed at length one phase Of the matter Of
profit sharing between employer and emplOye
He supplemented what is already known about
the attempt to make stockholders out of work
men made this year by the United States Steel
Corporation with one or two important sug
gestions.
Hitherto labor has been indisposed TO assume
any of the financial risks OF industry. 1t is
willing to profit by all advances in price and
increases in demand, but does not care TO share
the consequences when the business in which
il is engaged is losing money. Hence it was
an audacious proposition to offer TO the wage
earners in the iron and steel business a chance
10 take stock in the trust" When the over
ture was first made, about six months ago. to
set aside twenty-five thousand shares Of pre-
ferred stock, TO be taken at $50 90 share by
employees there was much curiosity to learn the
result. It has turned out that the subscriptions
amounted TO nearly fifty thousand shares, that
forty-fve thousand have actually been disposed
of talthough not yet paid for in full, that the
subscribers numbered about one-sixth of the
total working force of the corporation and its
subsidiary companies, and that the parent COM
pany is now meditating an additional offer.
How far other industrial concerns viii feel
inclined TO pursue the same policy and with
what sort OF response they win meet are ques-
tons which even the shrewdest guessers can
not well answer. An inducement TO continue
a stockholder after becoming one has already
been offered. A bonus of IS year per share
IS TO be paid to all workmen who retain their
stock for FIVE years Another one was proposed
IN Mr. Carnegie's address He thinks that in
case OF industrial reverses the repayment OF
workmen's subscriptions should be made the
first duty of q corporation. He advocates leg
islation to that effect. The obligation is com
pared TO a mechanics lien on an unsuccessful
business. In the present instance, as the com
pany adopts the attitude OF an adviser, il has
a special responsibility, different from that TO
its other stockholders. Hence the speaker be-
lfeved that illegal form should be given to the
moral claim.s If this proposition is ever acted

Captains Of industry are likely to consider this
matter carefully in the next few months.
simultaneously with the appearance OF Mr.
Carnegie's address in 'Cassier's Magazine an
other periodical devoted TO technical and labor
topics, "The Engineering Magazine" prints
some related suggestions. John B. c. Kershaw
shows that against the older form of profit shar-
ing. the bonus system as applied to piece work
in machine shops a reaction is taking place IN
England Up 10 the end of 1899 17S firms had
tried it, but ninety-four had abandoned it. Since
that time the number adhering to the plan has
still further diminished. Part of the trouble was
due, Mr.. Kershaw says, to the failure of the en-
ployers to make any profit at all, and part OF II
TO the dissatisfaction Of the men with their
share which in many cases was less than
per cent addition to their wages. Evidently the
writer thinks that circumstances occasionally
arise where much bigger bonuses are warranted.
AT the WESTINGHOUSE works in Pittsburg these
range from % TO 100 per cent of the regular pay

4 MOSQUITO EIFERMINATOR.

Scientists in the Bay State have discovered
that certain strains of music will destroy mos
quitoes ''These musical vibrations" they say,
will cause the mosquito to become suddenly
''and completely paralyzed. The sounds also
"cause the mosquito to plunge toward the spot
whence the music starts"
The men of science seem to take it for grant
ed that the music must come from a point
lower down than the mosquito, and say moth
ing as TO what would take place if the musi-
clan occupied n place high above the festive
mosquito. Would the mosquitoes on the floors
beneath the one occupied by the musician
plunge upward after receiving the stroke of
paralysis from the mosquito music, or would
they be contented with the paralysis and skip
the plunge? But that is a matter Of small de
tail and one as to which little thought should
be wasted except by the scientist who studies
the question in ali its forms For the layman
it is sufficient to know that mosquitoes can be
killed by music, and for him the main object
is to learn the tune.
There have been times when New Workers.
have wished that some songs might have been
less popular. They heard them at all hours
and in all places, but of these, not the rag
time the topical the nOnsensical song, not
the waltz the two-step nor the march, were
ever so popular as the song will be by which
the mosquito will be made to give up its sting
and its buzz and to plunge in a paralyzed con-
dition toward its musical execudoner. Organ
grinders and sheet iron bands will be hired to
play it; at summer resort hotels where mos
ouitoes are unknown the orchestras will play
the mosquito destroying melody because Of its
popularity, and in the churches situated in the
mosquito belt organists will play it for hours
before service to insure an atmosphere unde-
filed by the pest In the rural districts. where
musical instruments are at a premium, the
phonograph will be used to produce the tune
and summer boarders will amuse themselves
watching the destruction of the tiny creatures
The men who made the musical discovery
owe it to their fellows to send the notes Of
their mosquito destroying music through the
land, even at the risk of being told, when the
remedy has been applied that mosquitoes are
not so bad as some music.

movement. They are the men who eliminated
the Orientalisms with which Judaism was
burdened, made it attractive for the younger
people, changed the ritual to English and made
the beautiful houses Of worship possible. They
are proud of their places as refOrmers, but do
not wish to be classed with those who aim to
turn the temples and synagogues into lecture
halls, and in whose eyes the ancient ceremony
of the housewife lighting the Sabbath lamp is
a senseleSs mummery.
Doubtless the champions of both sides are sim
cere. They all aim in their way to elevate the
people of the ancient faith, but to the disinter-
ested spectator it would appear that the Jews
are to be congratulated on the outcome Of the
controversy in which the representatives de-
clare themselves in favor of maintaining the
historical Sabbath as a fundamental institution
of Judaism

4 CUP CONTEST IN IRELAND

Although the evergreen island of Erin has so
far failed to capture the most famous of yacht
ing trophies, 1t has supplied a satisfactory con-
test for the international cup for automobiles
which Mr. James Gordon Bennett, with char
Rcteristic hberality and enterprise, offered for
competition. The merits Of the various ma
chimes and the abilities OF the various chauf-
feurs were tried severely. Fortunately, nobody
was killed. and no one suffered such injuries
that 1t was necessary to send him to hospital
for long continued treatment

1t is fine thing for the United States to have
its own cable line across the Pacific Ocean and
for this country to possess and control so large
an arc of the great circle of Puck's Ciirdle. But
we must not claim too much. There are current
some Overexultant statements to the effect that
now the Pacific Ocean is spanned by cable for
the first time and that now for the first time
there is unbroken telegraphc communication
around the globe. We regret to confess that
The Tribune, in common with some of its con-
temporaries. has carelessly been made to ap-
pear to give such errors sanction. OF course,
such statements are quite erroneous and unjust
to the real pioneers in Pacific cable construc-
ton. An "all-British" cable, editorially
reminded our readers on Friday, was success
fully laid across the Pacific and completed on
October 81, 1902, more than eight months ago.
It was the first to span that ocean, and it first
completed the telegraphic circuit of the globe.

Napoleon, have always been praised by men of

THE ANCIENT SABBATH.

The adoption by the Central Conference Of
American Rabbls of resolution in favor Of the
ancient Sabbath was a step which will be ap-
proved by the great majority of Jews in this
country The discussion of the question. "ShalI
SundayY' will probably go on, however. and the
men who are leaders in the movement TO wipe
out the old landmark will continue to agitate
the question. In their opinion the Jewish Sab
bath is an empty phrase. They maintain that
its observance is practically impossible; that its
place has been maintained on sentimental
grounds; that it widens the gulf between the
Jew and his fellow citizen of the Christian faith
and keeps men of business from attending di-
vine service. They say that "a transfer of Sab
bath TO Sunday, however much opposed by
sentiment, presents TO the student of history
mo element Of danger that the fundamental
truths of the Jewish faith might be affected
'by such a transfer, or that the solidarity OF
1.-The people of Israel might be disturbed"
On the other hand, the Jews who are opposed
to the transfer of the Sabbath to Sunday say
that the holy day is a heritage which was
handed down to them by their fathers, which
they have preserved through all the trials and
yicissitudes to which they were subjected, and
that to part with it now in a country where
they are free to worship when and how they
please would be an objectionable disregard OF
the wishes of their ancestors which could be
productive of no good,
The men who have consistently opposed the
movement which has the transfer of the Jew
ish Sabbath to Sunday in view are not all OF
the ultra a-orthodox class. AS a matter OF fact,
some Of them have been active in the reform
