Taking Time by Forelock.

All the steamboat companies doing busi-
ness on the river are laying in large sup
plies of soft coal. all available space on the
wharves being utilized for the storage OF
the fuel. There are rumors about the
wharves Of trouble in the soft-coal regions
which may end in strike. and the steam
boat men do not want to be caught with
out good supply ahead when the strike
comes. This is just at the beginning Of
the busy season on the Potomac. and to tie
boats up would mean the loss of good
many thousand dollars The price now
being paid for the fuel Is about double
what 1t was two years ago.

EDITORIAL OPINION
The Tide Of immigration.


From the Boston Globe.
The March immigration I'M New
York was some 10000 more than the
previous YEAR. and the influx shows no
signs OF abatement The probability
is that this years admission will
break all records.
The immigration into this country is
truly astonishing. We have received
p 900 900 immigrants since 1921, and
over 20.000O00 Of them have. landed
since 1S45.
Thus, within a single generation
this country has absorbed from Europe
mainly a population moro than equal
to that OF Norway Sweden, Denmark
and Servia combined, twice ais many
as now live in Persia, once the wcrld'e
mistress; or nearly as many as the
total peopling today Of Ireland. Scot
land. Wales and all Canada.
We need not he afraid OF these as-
founding accessions, nor are we liable
to be swamped by them The problem
is not how to exclude them, but how
to get these hundreds OF thousands OF
newcomers away from the coast cities
TO the farms OF the Middle West, where
the need OF labor is very keen, where
wages are good, and social conditions
as hopefil as sunny skies.

DOCTORS TIMELY CHAT
ON ILLS OF THE SEASON

The feather bed, which used TO
regarded as q great luxury, is fast
disappearing from the homes Of those
who have learned that there is some
thing better The best kind Of a bed,
in my opinion, is a good hair mattress
on good wire springs. If people are
going to be extravagant anywhere
they may best be so about their beds
for they spend upon them a larger part
of their time than in any other one
place. The use of the feather bed is
bad for many reasons, even for healthy
people. 1t is still worse for invalids
1t is almost impossible to make it up so
the surface will not be uneven. It re-
tains moisture and offensive odors,
promotes the formation Of bed sores
and retards recovery from fevers. 1t
is said to be the custom I'm some parts
of Nova Scotia 10 sleep with the feath-
er bed as a covering, instead of lying
on II as we do. Which way is the more
healthful am not able to say.
Much care should be taken with the
invalid's bed. 1t should be kept scru-
pulously clean and should be changed
frequently. A soiled undersheet may
be replaced by a clean one without dis
turbing the patient except by rolling
him over a few inches. Roll up the
soiled sheet lengthwise on the side OF
the bed not occupied, until II is rolled
close to the patients body. Then
spread the clean sheet over the uncov-
cred surface, and having it similarly
rolled on the opposite side, place it as
close to the patient as possible. All
that will then be required will be for
the patient to turn over on the clean
sheet, when the soiled one is removed
and the clean one unrolled over the re-
naming surface of the bed. In max
ing up a bed the under sheet should al
ways be drawn as tight as possible,
as wrinkles are an abomination to q
we'll person and a torture to the sick.
A sleeping room should be well ven
tilated, and yet the bed should not be
allowed to stand in a draught. To ar
range the room properly is sometimes
perplexing. The bed should not stand
close TO the wall, for experiments have
proved that even when there is a
strong current IN the centre of the
room, there is a layer of air near the
walls which is subject to very little
change. If It Is necessary to have the
bed set against the wall during the
day. It should be moved out two or
three feet at night. There should al
ways be an open window in a Sleep
ing room. l like the plain of having
the window open, a little at both TOP
and bottom. This gives the dead ali
chance to go out while the fresh air
comes in. At any rate. be sure tc
have plenty OF pure, fresh air &C
breathe while you sleep. l am conf
dent that much of the anaemia we
have in these times is due to sleeping
in small, close rooms where the sam,
air is breathed over and over again
with it lifegiving, blood -vitalizinl
elements nearly all exhausted.

covERNoR nuNN.s VISITORS

The delegation which is in Dover to-
day is composed IN general OF mem
who are representative of that which
is best in the community. It contains
professional men and business men,
farmers and. mechanics. and its nom
partisanship may be inferred from the
fact that Republicans, Democrats and
Prohibitionists join in the appeal.
Governor HUM has less than two
years more to serve. Soon he will re-
tire from Office and his administration
will be history. There has been great
deal of strife during his term and much
hansh criticism. yet every act thus far
is susceptible OF some SORT Of an ex-
PLANTATION. Now upon his shoulders is
placed a responsibility he cannot eyade.
Bribery at our elections has run ram
pant, and the Voters Assistant law has
been the chief instrument That is
admitted by even the Union Republi-
can leaders. Therefore, If the Cover
nor should be the instrument through
which this law is retained, he would
make a record that his life would not
be long enough in which 70 explain.
The present administration will long
be remembered by what the Governor
does with this measure. II he signs it,
we shall rejoice that our Chief Execu-
tive has the courage Of his convictions
and even the Union Republicans will
respect him. In after years John HUM
would be known as the Governor whC
helped to stamp out a most pernicioul
law II is inconceivalble in this enlight
ened age that the man chosen to ad

day to day amendments are added un-
I'll there is bill which, if it becomes
law, will tie the hands of the news
paper men and make independent jour
nhlism extremely hazardous.
The bill requires the publication at
the head Of the editorial columns Of
the names of the officers of the
company, or the owner. together with
that CT the managing editor. This Is
matter OF little consequence, since
the names of the responsible persons
are always revealed by a suit. Its sweep
ing provision against cartoons would
take away all of the most attractive
features of the modern papers, and
would shield only those who ought to
be exposed. since mo cartoon is effec-
tive unless 1t expresses "a great truth.
The latest amendment allows the
jury in assessing the damages to take
into consideration the type, headlines
and general position Of the lfbelous
article. This is a move to throttle The
press, and is made by those who are
either ignorant CT journalism or indif
gerent to its requirements. The editor
of a newspaper every day has to weigh
stories and decide instantly whether
they should be published He cannot
weigh all the evidence like a jury. or
there wouldbe no newspaper. To sup
press that which is believed to be true
Injuries his paper, deprives the public
OF what it has a right to kncw and
Shields these who should be exposed.
The press needs TO be protected rather
than penalized.

RELIGIoN IN rnE soHooLs

One Of the cardinal doctrines Of the
American people is the separation OF
church and State We have adhered
pretty closely to the idea that no per-
son shall be Disseminated against on
account Of his religious beliefs. We re-
gard the public schools as the cradle
Of libsrty. and have insisted that they
shall not be used to further the inter-
ests of any sect. Teachers have been
somewhat hRmpened, it is true, be-
cause 1t is SO difficult to treat religion
In the abstract. and 10 divorce moral
10y from scripsural authority. But. on
The whole, our public schools have
measured up TO the American idea, and
IL recent years there have been fes
