Mr.. FAIRBANKS LETTER
A Clear and Effective Statement of
~ Republican Principles.

Senator Fairbanks letter Of accept
rectly to the business men and work
ers generally. It Satisfactorily some
of the most important. but perhaps
not sufficiently understood, tenets of
the Republican party in its conflict
with Democracy. ESQ., ~
In calling attention to the service
done to the entire country by the es-
ia biiShment of the Bureau of Com
merce and Labor, with a special de-
partment to deal with corporations.
the Senator points out the first real
attempt by the government to deal
with the trust problem. He clearly
sees that the regulation of the great
combinations of capital by law is pos
sible. is necessary, and he shows the
consistent course of the Republican
party in this regard.
AS to our foreign policy Senator
Fairbanks rightly considers that we

In his enunciation of the Republican
idea of the desirability of closer trade
Canada, the candidate for the Vice
Presidency is peculiarly happy He
is plainly for a liberal movement for
reciprocity between this country and
the people just over the line to the
north. He also emphasizes the value
of the open door secured for us in
China, and promises a continuance of
the benefits of that result of our re-
cent foreign policy.
AS whole, the letter of the Vice
Presidential candidate is strong pa
per. one which commands respect and
confidence. Senator Fairbanks is
meeting the American people face to

the other. in his very lively campaign.
1t is we'll. however to have in hand

ILLEGAL CORPORATIONS
President Action in Enforcing Laws
Against Thorn.
Northwestern Christian Advocate,
Sent 90

Sept 20)
In holding large corporations to
strict accountability to the law the
president is serving the best interests
of those corporations as we'll as con-
serving the welfare of the country. All
corporations which are operating on
an unlawful basis should be compelled
to conform to the law. If they cannot
or will not they should go out of bust
ness. This some have been forced by
the lawless conduct of their promoters
and operators to do, to the great loss
of their stockholders. Many formerly
wealthy men are now broken in for
tune because corporations with which
they were connected were formed and
operated in violation of law. The &C
ton of the president in enforcing the
law would prevent. not promote, such
losses.
One of the crying needs of America
today is such respect for the laws of
the nation as the president has shown.
He did not make the laws. but it is
his duty to obey them. He has set
an example which every citizen should
follow If that be done we shall hear
no more of mobs breaking into jails.

or burning prisoners suspected or con-

which directs that the most vigilant attention be paid to every phase of en- igration. The authorities are to make an effort to ascertain the reasons which compel Hungarians to emigrate and are to endeavor to turn prospective emigrants from their purpose. In the event that they are unable to dissuade them the circular directs that the in- tention of the law must be carried out namely. that emigration must con- form to the interests both of the state and the emigrants. and that the au- thorities must make it impossible for secret agents and unlicensed transpor- tation lines to operate. The authori- ties must search out and severely pun ish such persons and lines, and must vigilantly control the operations of the licensed lines, and the latter must in no case be permitted to encourage emigration.
 It may be that such efforts as these will solve what has proven 10 be dif- ficult problem for this country. and will stop the flood of immigration that is now coming to our shores.

 Few Years Ago.

The question of immigration is de- handing more and more the close study of government officials. This is true not so much because of the num- bers of immigrants coming as because of the class. A half century and less ago when we needed home and empire builders for the west we were drawing them from the countries of the north of Europe; sturdy peoples who brought to the new land desire to profit by every blessing which it offered, and who brought with them qualifications that go to make the good and desirable citizen of whatever country they choose to call their own.

INCREASE OF SUICIDES.
Growing Tendency to Self Destruction in America Shown by
 Statistics.

The census bureau is taking cogniz- ance of the suicidal mania that occasion- ally sweeps over the country with such virulence. The latest bulletin, recently issued, shows that this country still makes comparatively favorable show ing, the proportion of suicides being smaller than in most of the European states. None the less, the total is large, says the Chicago Chronicle, 77,617 for the past l3 years, and, unfortunately, it Is increasing. It is largest in the towns and in certain cities. notably San Fran cisco, St Louis, Chicago and New York, the average of continental Europe is reached. At the same time it should be stated that majority of the self-mur- ders are committed by persons of for eign birth. Americans generally having hopeful disposition, which encourages them to keep on after reverse, with the belief that success will ultimately come to them. With the American element, however, suicide is growing more preva- lent with the greater rush and hurly- burly of life
 As is we'll known, suicide is most fre- quent with men, the ratio as compared with women being about three to one. The two sexes approach nearer to each other in this particular in the cities than in the rural districts. There are con- paratively few suicides of women in the country.
 Fashlon changes in suicide as well as In other things. Previous to 1894 more suicides died by the bullet than by all the other agencies combined, and, in case of disappointment. disgrace or bad health the usual course was "to blow out their brains" A great change. how ever, came over the country when some- one discovered the carbolic acid route. To-day carbolic acid leads the suicide van and more than 800 deaths have re- gently been caused by it.
 The use of poison for "shuffiing off this mortal coil" is growing steadily in favor, especially with women. until it has become necessary to take some &C., ton to prevent the great loss of life from this deadly and painful poison. Tn some or the states the sale of carbolic acid has been regulated and restricted in much the same way as arsenic and other polsons, but it is an article in such gen. eral use that it is difficult to prevent it falling into the hands of those inteud- Ing suicide. It might be well. under these circumstances, to let it be more generally known how good an antidote alcohol is. if promptly applied, to car bolic acid poisoning Some of the cases of poisoning are accidental and in not lew suicides the victim has regretted taking her life.

THE MAKING OF A sKEPTIC.

When father had his picture took he had winnin smile, Jes' like an angel whispered to him every little while: He wore a stand-up collar and button

England and Scotland included.

There are indications that the tide of immigration from Europe has turned. Last year we received through the Ellis island station S57,046 per- sons, and estimates based on such fig ures as are available up to the present time indicate falling off of from ten to 15 per cent. for this year. This may
 be due in part to the efforts that are being made in Austria and Italy to put a stop to emigration from those countries. the authorities there fearing that if it continues it will drain the countries of their vitality. Count Tis- za of Hungary, has issued a circular

HAD TO EAT DOG MEAT,
Frightful Experience of Knowing Ex- petition in Newfoundland-Res
 cued in the Nick of Time.

Advices from the west coast of New foundland state that the Philip Knowl- ing expedition, which sailed from Bay St. George for Glenwood by way of Cormack's track, has arrived at its des tination, after three weeks suffering and extreme hardships Henry Me Whirter, who accompanied the expedi- tion, said:
 From the beginning of the journey the party trudged through mountains of snow. sinking at every step to a great depth. Food ran short after the first ten days. and it is seldom that anything could be shot to sustain the hungry men and dogs. Owing to the continuous snowstorms the guides were unable to get their bearings and frequently wished to be allowed to re- trace their steps. However. the pluck Of MT. Knowing always encouraged them. He would not turn back. Soon came those awful signs of approach ing starvation. Bells were ringing in our ears and voices shouting from all ], directions. Driven to desperation, the Indian guides killed all of their dogs and rayenously ate the flesh"
 The party. after tramping 21 days, had given up hope of reaching Glen wood.
 Exhausted from hunger and thirst, and with no suecor in sight, three had resolved to meet their death, when McWhirter. who was stronger than the others. kept on a short distance. He discovered the head of the Gander river and, returning to the others, they located their position.

PAY OF SCHOOL TEACHERS.
Rany Surprising Facts About Their Meager Wages Brought Out
 By sIRNe~tigatiOn.

The recent movementin Philadelphia D the interest of school teachers and eheir pay brought out many surprising faets about the measer wage whi2E the instructors of youth receive, but more surprising things are coming to light from the investigations of the New England Educational association and other bodies. The average yearly sal
 ary of the 4so.000 pablie school teach srs of the United States is $296 The average salary of the men is less than 1922, and of the women, less than S27o. Ne are on the eve of a great move
 Nent in behalf of the American public school. Students of our social and gov srnment problems, "sociologists" and plain Americans are recognizing the utility of the public school as the mighty agency which turns human raw material into American citizens, and earnest men are considering methods of making the school even more effective than it is. One prominent educator de- slares that the first thing to be done is to improve the teacher; improve his or her physique, equipment, character. And yet t is not likely that any meth pd of doing this will be hit upon ex- sept by offering suitable inducements 1o ambitious young men and women to adopt teaching as life work. The Gel orado labor commissioner found on in- sestigation that out of thirty-two oe
 equations. the only ones commanding ess pay than teachers were gravel coolers, clerks, laborers and walters; and the walters get their tips. Asso- fiations and sociologfsts may thunder forth their theories. but the efficiency at the teaching body will depend on she salaries paid; it will cost money, and it vii, pay.-Philadelphia Record.
