Being Ready.

It's Value Shown at a Thea4el
Fire.
| There was a remarkable scenet in
Proctor's New York Theater one
night last week. a policeman onAthe
street saw smoke and fame burst
through the roof. He rang I'm the
fire alarm and notified the nea rest
police station, then rushed INFO the
theater and told the manager,
The push Of an electric button no.
titled every employee in the house OF
the condition of affairs. Tie, man
ager stepped into & box and EcaImIy
instructed the audience wbatk TO do.
The policemen had by FthB time
reached the place. The hoUse was
emptied in six minutes without fright
or physical injury OF any. sort.
This case was particularly fortu-
nate in that the fire was discovered
by an outsider. so that arrangements
could be made to cope With the situa-
ton before the audience Hlnew there
was any danger. Had the audience
first discovered the fire, as was the
case in Chicago, there might have
been a different story to tell.
On the other haI 81, had not the
manager Of this hOu se.swarned by the
Chicago disaster. equipped his house
and drilled his employees to meet just
such an emergency, Jeyen the warn
ing in advance wOnh have been use
less, for the manager would have
been without the kmeans with which
to act
The difference7between good and
bad management in theaters as in
everything else1 consists largely in
getting there first. If every problem
has a solutionEawaiting it before it
comes up to be solved, it is a safe
wager that 1T will not have to be
solved at all. <'Semper paratus.' says
the Latin, W hich means: II isn't half
so hard to 10 the work now as it is
to repent aEterward because you left
il undOne.

haY had an unfortunate experience
Of human nature. If he means that a
ma n who has tried a certain solution
OF "a difficult problem and found that
il works is likely to believe in that
solution, his conclusion is less erratc,
Sut we fail to see how the man is in
any way to blame for his belief. If
he means that the rank outsider al
ways knows more about the rights of
IA thing than the man on the spot,
/ perhaps he would like to invite Sen
atOr Tillman to come to Boston and
| lecture the people on the solution of
the immigration problem or the pro-
motion Of cotton manufacture in New
England. On the whole, that last
course might be highly instructive
for Prof. James, if not for the citizens
OF Boston. He would find out then
| just how much the rank outsider can
teach him about his own business.
If Secretary Taft had been born and
brought up in the Philippines, or
were a Spanish leftover, with all the
prejudices and sentiments of
mOnarChical government, there might
be some sense in accusing him of
prejudice because he cautions us
against too great optimism in judging
the Filipino. But he went to the
Islands as a wide-awake, intelligent
American, and made it his business
to get the Filipino ready for absolute
self-gOVernment as soon as he posi-
bly, could. 1t would be vastly more
TO his political interest to be optimis-
tic than pessimistiC about this thing.
1t does sometimes happen that a rep
resentatiye Of a ruling race which
has been for generations in close con-
tact with a subject race is possessed
by certain prejudices which hinder
fair judgment, but a man who ac-
quires that state of mind in three or
four years must catch prejudices as
easily as a child would the measles.
II there is one thing above all others
which We must learn in order TO be
successful in dealing with Oriental
peoples, it is that the man who has
been there knows more about it than
we do, always provided that he be
honest, fair-minded, and intelligent.

Some industrious person has been
hunting through the New York news
paper files for a score of years past
trying to find out if Judge Parker has
really ever said anything. The
search has brought forth the fact that
in 1888 he was in favor of disenfran-
chising voters found guilty Of bribery.
Americans will have to stop this
buying of votes, or their Government
Will be destroyed" he is reported as
saying. That is interesting, and
might, on a pinch, we suppose, be
made over into a national issue. But
the vitality interesting point in this
connection will be whether, in case
he is nominated, Judge Parker will
make his party live up TO his ideal OF
good citizenship.
