The School Gardens.
From the Boston HeraId.

From the Boston Herald.
One Of the most beneficent features
of our modern educational work is that
of the school gardens. Through pleas
ant outdoor occupation it brings the
children into delightful contact with
nature. II gives them something inter-
esting to do and to think about. 1t i'm
proves them mentally, morally and ply
sically, and is one of the most potent Of
instruments for expanding their minds
and their souls by casting the light of
understanding uDon some Of the mys-
teries of life and growth. This work
has been made regular feature in sew
eral of our Boston public schools, and
has been so extraordinarily successful
that it should be introduced as a part
of the course in all.

Communication from c-.1-sss,,-- So
mltted to State Department.
Washington, Sept. 21.-Interest in
the Panama canal situation now cen
ters in the communication which Dr.
Herran. the Colombia charge, recently
submitted to the state department
from his government. Just what the
nature of this is DR.. Herran and the
state department officials decline to
say. on the ground that it is of a con-
fidential character but it is understood
that it Is in the nature of a PROPOSE
ton which will keep alive the canal
negotiations with the Colombian gov
ernment after the expiration of Sep
tember 22, at which time the existing
treaty expires by limitation. Unless
there should be a considerable re
vulsion of feeling in the Colombian
senate in favor of the Hay-Herran
agreement, that treaty is believed to
be dead by Minister Beaupre at Bo-
gotta and by South American diplomats

LET THEM DO rHEIR DUTY.

A great deal OF interest IS centered
in the fall term Of court which opens
today, for the reason that the attitude
Of the court and Of tho Attorney Gen
eral in regard to the recent lynching
affair VIII be made known. We have
never doubted that the court would
take the proper means to vIndicate the
majesty OF the law, 1t has been
thoroughly cognizant Of ell the par
ticulars Of the lynching affair, and it
win doubtless expect the Attorney Gen
eral to present such evidence to the
grand jury as It has been possible TO
secure.
There seems to be a feeling that
some way under due process Of law
the matter VIII be disposed OF without
causing anyone to suffer by reason OF
participation in the lynching. This
would be adding to the farce, and in
croasing the contempt for the law.
The public has no right to expect any
thing but that the members OF the
grand jury win obey their oaths. and il
necessary ind true bills. even against
their own relatives, should the evil
dence warrant. II may not be a pleas
ant duty to perform. but il the rights
OF the people are to be safe guarded our
juries must not only be disposed to do
their plain duty regardless Of conse-
quences, but they must be backed by
public sentiment
Had the mob not resorted to vio-
lence the court would now be about to
take up the case Of George White. He
would have had an orderly trial and
would have received a proper sentence.
Instead OF that he was hurled into
eternity without judge or jury and
without benefit OF the clergy. Conse-
quently. not George White, but his
lynchers may now be called upon no
stand trial They knew the gravity of
their offence. and they have no excuse
for their violent act. Much depends
upon this term OF court, % it win say
to the werld and to our own people
what the attitude Of Delaware justice
is towards lynchArs.
The Evening Journal has consistent
ly fought for law and order Il urged
the workhouse authorities to defend
their prisoner at all hazards. It coun-
seled order when many who are now
secretly ashamed OF their act were ad-
vocatng violence. When the crime
had been COMPUTED we demanded the
arrest and conviction Of the ring-lead-
ers- There was nothing else to do.
Anything else means an encouragement
Of mob law. tho breaking down Of the
safeguards we have been for centuries
building. II means anarchy and chaos
We wish there were another way o.

eEYoNp LIE PoWER oF UNIONS.

Thore Is an effort among certain
labor leaders 20 make an issue with
President Roosevelt over the re-en-
statement Of W. A. Miller as foreman
OF the book-binding department in the
government printing office. The
brotherhood OF Electrical Workers and
the Central Labor Union. OF Washing
ton. have passed resolutions virtually
calling for boycott on the President.
OF course labor organizations may very
properly protect themselves and their
members. but they win be unable to
do It by being illogical and unfair.
The Presidents oath Of ofice is such
that had he submitted to the dismissal
of Miller without investigation Of the
charges against him, and just because
he had been expelled from the union,
he would have shown himself unworthy
OF his high onice. His first duty is to
his country, and his first allegiance to
the laws which he has sworn to sup
port. The civil service law does not
contemplate removals save for in
efficiency and the government ap-
points Its own officers 10 deter
mine questions involving the fit-
ness Of its employees. To abdi-
cate in favor Of the officers Of labor
unions would be to place these volun-
tary organizations above the govern
ment--a thing utterly unreasonable
and impossible.
It IS customary. too, when charges
are brought against government ere-
r1oyes to have them investigated
whether the employe be a postmaster
or a person in the classified service.
