AN APPETIzER.

We intend no reflection of st. Louis
hostelries when we assert that visitors
to the Louisiana Purchase exposition
will bring back with them even better
appetites than they will take with
them, for pure food exhibit on a
larger scale than ever before attempted
is to be one of the features of the. eX-,
position. There is nothing so COM
forting to the average Individual as
the sight of a pure food or a model
food factory exhibit. 1t settles for
time, at least, all those disauieting
doubts which Mrs. Rorer's advice on
what not to eat and newspaper stories
of the seizure of adulterated foods
implant in the mind. Are we troubled
in spirit because Of the exposure of
some unsanitary condition in break
fast food factory? We have only to
visit it's model exhibit to regain CUR
appetites and our confidence. Are we
assailed with doubt as to the purity of
some favorite article of food? We have
ton and listen for few minutes to
the learned language of the demon
strator whose duty it Is to explain
away all doubt in order to be supplied
with fresh faith.
Troublesome Investigators may in
sist that there is alum in this and
borax in that, but we who have visited
model food exhibits know that the food
we eat is invariably prepared by
clearly little maids in attractive pink
and blue gowns and eoquettish, caps
and aprons. We have looked into their
candid eyes and we are positive that
they could not deceive us. Fault-find-
ing officials may declare that this fac
ed, but we who have Visited model
food factory exhibits know that the
clearly maidens always work in flow
er-decorated rooms surrounded By
freshly secured tables on which are
arranged shining pans. This comfort
have we derived from model food fac
tory exhibits and pure food exhibits.
and an occasional exposure, or even
Mrs. Rorer herself, Cannot take it from
us.
And now we are to have the addi-
tional comfort OF this mammoth pure
food exhibit. We are to renew ae-
auaintance with the clearly little
maids in the eoquettish caps and
aprons (only there will be many, many
more Of them than we have ever seen
before) and we are to be once more
convinced that a food factory is like
June garden, always beautiful and
fresh and fair. We will come away
more firmly convinced than ever that
the wholesale adulteration of food is
merely a delusfon of the government
official who is paid for discovering it;
that the unsanitary factory is his in.
yention; that what, we eat, in fact. is
all that our grocer assures us it is.
May the pure food exhibit and the
model food factory exhibit flourish.
They supply confidence to doubling
and dyspeptic Thomas.

WATER HAS ITS WAY
Property Loss in Wyoming
Valley q Million.

WILKESBARRE, Pa, March g.
The city of Wilkesbarre and the Wy
ening valley was in a turmoil today.
The water spread all about it, sweep
ing in it's path whatever there was to
invade. Industries along the entire
stream, from Pittston to Nanticoke, are
closed down and in many places water
is flowing into the mines. In the CEN
trail portion of Wilkesbarre today bust
ness was crippled. Over million dol
lars worth of property has been de-
stroyed in the Wyoming valley and
over two thousand families rendered
homeless.
Though the river is falling at
Wilkesbarre tonight, towns in the vi
cinity of Bloomsbury are experiencing
the worst flood in their history.
HARRISBURG, Pa, March 9.-Aft-
in this vicinity that Burgess Whistler,
of Middletown, has asked aid of this
city for the relief of the people who
have been rendered homeless. Over
half a mile of the town is covered
with ice and silt from two feet to fif-
teen feet. Between 500 and 500 houses
are surrounded and can be reached
only by entering the second story win
doWs. Many houses have been en-
tirely ruined, while others have been
lifted from their foundations and their
contents lost. In Harrisburg condi-
tions are improving rapidly.

to be shown that reformation should
entirely supersede punishment as the
aim of the processes of the criminal
law.
: 1t is a notorious fact that the petty
criminals who infest the great cities
very frequently have prison records.
The police exercise an almost constant
supervision of men who have served
terms in the reformatories and when a
crime is committed it is almost the in
variable practice of the authorities to
draw in the drag net full of paroled
men. This is not persecution. because
it very generally transpires that crimes
are ferreted out by the examination of
these men. They mix with the, Grim
inal classes-pefhaps because, wearing
the badge of the reformatory they are
barred from other society, more likely
because of their criminal instincts.
The criminal who has known pun
ishment and cannot escape the law
strives for a refermatory sentence as
another man strives for liberty. Pos
sibly the reformatory is too desirable
a place Of residence. In any event
there is something wrong with a penal
system that doubles the population Of
the reformatory in SO short a time.
The matter Is worthy the attention of
practical penoIogists. s.,

British House Takes Vote on

LONDON, March s.-During to-

Austen Chamberlain and other mem
pers of the government on the fiscal
question, moved that this house, not

demnation of any such policy"
Mr. Prizes motion was debated for
three hours, and the arguments COW
cred mainly the previous ground Of
nscal discussion. Herbert H. Asuuith.
the principal opposition speaker, drew
from Premier Balfour the admission
that he had withdrawn the memoran-
dunn presented to the cabinet advocat-
ing preferential tariffs and a tax on
food.
The premier repeated his statement
that general election must preeede
any fundamental change in the fiscal
policy. He said he did not believe
the country would accept any fiscal ar
the taxation of food, and contended
that Unionists who desired to go fur
ther than that Were entitled to their
view, but that they need not therefore
vote against the government
Mr.. Prizes motion was rejected by
2S9 votes to 243, and loud opposition
cheers greeted the reduction in the
government majority. A number Of
Tree food Unionists supported Mr.
Prize and some protectionists abstain
ed from voting.
The fiscal controversy took on a new
Phase which showed the strength of
the Chamberlain party. AS an offset
to Mr.. Prizes motion, Premier Bal
four put up a Conservative member of
the house, John Lloyd Wharton, to
move an amendment approving the
ministerial declarations of the fiscal
policy, as including neither a general
system OF protection, nor preference
based on the taxation of food"
Chamberlainites to the number of
100 held meeting this evening, and
as result they intimated to the gov
eminent that unless the Wharton
amendment be withdrawn they would
abstain from voting on the Prize mo-
ton.
AS this would almost certainly have
led to the defeat of the government,
Mr.. Wharton's amendment was with
drawn. The incident proves that Pre-
mier Balfour can hold office only by
consent of the pronounced protection

THE OHIO RACE WAR.

1t has been the especial province of
the Republican press of the United
States to make political capital out of
the fact that it was frequently thought
necessary in the Southern states to kill
a black man in order to keep his kind
in subsection. The Ohio politician has
been the fugleman of the Republican
advance on account of the colored
Ohio the disposition to kill niger"
is developed to an extent that is in
conceivable in the black belt of the
South.
There is a real race war on in
Springfield, Ohio, a Republican state
that has benefited most by preaching
the doctrine that the Democrats were
responsible for the Iynchings in the
South. A black man killed white
man. The whites were not particularly
interested in the white man until he
had died at the hands of negro. Then
they went out and demanded-and ex-
acted-the blood atonement. For two
days Springfield has been in the throes
of a race war. Every white man was
the sworn foe Of every black man, and
an organized effort was made by the
superior race to exterminate the in
ferier people.
1t occurs sometimes in the South that
black man is killed by a mob for the
assassination of a white man. The re-
yenge is senseless, and it has been
charged that it could only be exaeted
by people Indifferent to the processes
Of law. 1t has frequently occurred that
negro beast has been killed as a
white beast would be killed under sim
liar aggravation anywhere. And the
Republican party has in effect, held
the Democrats of the North responsible
for the deeds of the white men of the
South in taking revenge on black Grim
inals. The charge has been insidiously
made, but it has been effective in
places.
Now it is demonstrated that in Ohio,
Indiana, Delaware and other Northern
states that racial antipathies are not
restricted to any section Of the coun-
try. The Ohio mob acted upon the
same impulse that has moved the Ala
bama mob. If the people of Alabama

who killed a criminal because he hap
burned down the homes of his fellow
blacks? Ohio is a hotbed of Repub-
licanism. The men who led the mob
in Springfield were, of course, Repub-
Iicans. But they acted like savages I'M
der a savage impulse.
The Republican loves the black man
not at all. He has made the ignorant
black to believe that he is his savior
and should therefore control his vote
The nation gave the black man his
liberty; the Republican party controls
his vote by making him what some
wit has called the "cuspidorian" of the
nation.
The salvation of the negro is in him
self, not in the specious promises OF
the Republican platform nor in the alb
surd assertions of the Republican press
