IN AN INVESTIGATION Of a case
Z of restitution. The Herald has
found these facts: the father is a dis
solute drunkard. unwilling to support
his family; the mother is in poor
health, inefficient at her best and help
less most OF the time; the children, of
whom there are several boys and girls.
are practically without care or guild
ance. The inevitable result viii be the
rearing Of those children in an atmos-
phere Of squalor. vice and restitution.
Already there are evidences Of de-
generation.
The state law provides a method for
the removal of the children but il
does not provide the machinery for
such action, nor does it designate the
official upon whom the responsibility
for action should fall. Apparently
these helpless ones are to be left to go
their ways to a life OF uselessness If
not of vice, to be a charge upon the
community and possibly to become
criminals.

business is nobody's business; because

OIL AS FUEL.

THE ARRIVAL Of the steamship Ne
braskan IN New York harbor from
San Francisco. and San Diego with a
cargo Of wine was reported in the New
York papers the other day. But the in
teresting fact about the steamer is that
1t accomplished a journey of $4,000
miles without stopping once for coal
And she did not hoist a rag of sail
from the beginning to the end of the
voyage. The Nebraskan burns oil. The
success Of her trip demonstrates the
possibilities of oil as fuel for ocean
going ships.
The average steampship is obliged to
coal at least once in four or five thou
sand miles. The journey of the Ne
braskln was equivalent to a trip COW
ering two-thirds of the distance around
the earth. When she reached New
York she had enough oil left in her
tanks for a further journey of sew
eraI thousand miles. 1t is difficult to
estimate the value of oil as a fuel on
warships. for instance. The oil takes
up very much less room than coal, it
makes no smoke and the ship is not
tied to a cOaling station.
The same thing is true Of merchant
vessels. The story of the Nebraskan
is likely TO be read with deep interest
by naval men everywhere. Details of

but they viii probably be embodied in
some sort Of statement from the off,

| II HE QUESTION of the prevention Of
hoodlumism among the boys of
Salt Lake is beginning to attract the
attention it deserves. The school prin-
cipals have taken it up now. They tell
US a great many things we already
knew, but they fail to suggest any sat
isfactory solution of the problem. We
know boys are permitted to run wild
on the streets Of Salt Lake. They are
disrespectful to older persons. they
smoke cigarettes. they engage in petty
thievery, they are guilty of acts of var.>
dahsm and malicious mischief.
How can the evil be corrected? It
has been said. and truly. that the first
place to begin the training Of a boy is
the home. Give him a wholesome home
environment and he viii be more in
terested in his home than in the street
But it is difficult to make home attrac-
tive for some boys. They do not care
to read books that are good for them,
they viii not long amuse themselves
with innocent games. What is to be
done with them?
Parents are largely responsible for
hoodlumism. They should make it
their business to know where their
boys are all the time. If they are in
bad company they should be removed
from it; if they are acquiring bad hab-
its. those habits should be broken off
before they become absolutely fxec.
Boys are not born incorrigible. They
often become incorrigfble through lack
of proper training. but nearly every
boy. if taken in time, can be made a
respectful, respectable. manly young
ster-
We don't want to raise a generation
of goOdy-gOOdy boys. The lad who is
always painfully proper. painfully cor
rect in everything he says and does is
as unbearable as the little hoodIum
who is always into some more or less
reprehensible mischief We do want
the next generation. though. to be
clean and sturdy and wholesome and
honest, and we should bend every en-
ergy to make them so. A fight now and
then doesn't hurt a boy. A bloody nose
really does him good if acquired in a
fair battle. a broken window pane
doesn't damn boy for life any more
than single cigarette damns him.
Give him a reasonable amount Of lee
way. but let him know that you are re-
serving the veto power; let him know
it vigorously. if you please, but don't
try to break his spirit.

THE REPUBLICAN, FEup.

HE REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES OF
L Thursday evening developed some
thing OF a surprise in the refusal Of
Senator Kearns' friends 10 offer them
selves up for sacrifice. Former Con-
gresham Sutherland and Senator
Smoot, with their followers, had ar
ranged a neat little barbecue at which
the Kearns combination was 10 furnish
the piece de resistance. Judge then the
grievous disappointment Of the Suther-
iand-SmOot people when they dis
covered no one at the feast but them
selves, no foes TO barbecue, no innocent
victims ready to walk up and be
slaughtered for the holiday occasion.
Now that it is over. it would take a
wise politician to determine whether
the triumph was worth while. Mr..
Sutherland has finally arrayed himself
On the side OF Senator SmOOt, whose
election he deplored; Senator Smoot
finds himself in a position which gives
cOloring to the assumption that even
the most powerful do not care to op-
pose a man of his ecclesiastical posi-
tiOn; and the whole Sutherland moot-
Callister combination is at once put on
the defensive.
NOminally. Senator Kearns and his
friends have withdrawn from active
participation in Republican party af.
fairs, but the man who assumes that
they have quit permanently is apt to
lose his scalp If he goes to sleep on
that assumption. As a matter of fact
the Kearns people have played shrewd
politics whether by design or not. The
delegation 10 the national convention
IS not important enough to fight for in
year when the choice Of a presiden-
tial candidate win be perfunctory: it
was apparent that the Sutherland
Smoot aggregation meant to slaughter
everybody who had any friendship for
the senior senator. and it would have
involved a serious loss of prestige for
him had Senator Kearns been an issue
and been defeated at the primaries.
Having succeeded in securing con-
troll Of the salt Lake delegation and
being reasonably sure of controlling
the state convention, it remains to be
seen whether the victOrs are willing to
risk the schism that will result If they
compel Senator Kearns and his friends
10 stay at home and send none but
SmoOt- Sutherland delegates to the
national convention.
To a rank outsider, il looks as though
the feud which found expression in the
primaries would involve the whole Re
publican party of the state. In that
event. the Democracy of Utah will
shed no tears. There would be a beauti-
ful poetic justice in having the Re-
publican party split in twain by Sen
ator Shoots adherents. since it was
through his influence that the party
carried the state. chose an apostle for
the senatorship and swept everything
political in the last election.
Meanwhile, there is a prospect of
Democratic success this year. Unless
something like a miracle effects a re-
Cancellation Of the Republican factions,
the Democrats have more than a fight
ing chance To re-establish themselves
in power. The city election last fan
showed what a straight-away fight
with good leaders can do; it should not
be difficult to repeat the performance
at the polls this fail.

The Jews in Italy

Although Italy is one Of the first Of
European countries in which Jews set
tied, the Jewish population there now
is very small, only about one one-hun-
dredth per cent Of the entire population.
Out of a population of 81 100000, Italy
has only 1851 Jews. Most Of the Jews
live in northern Italy especially in Tus-
cany, with $500 Jews in the city Of Lii
vorno; then follows Piedsmont with l.
$40 Jews Very few Jews live in the
country towns, eighty-five per cent being
settled in the larger cities. The largest
Jewish community is in Rome, with Z, ,121
members, then follows Maitland with g.
OLE, and Turin with $500 Jews. Genoa
has 1,O5O, while Naples has only 327
Jews. Mantua has LOGS and Ferrara l.,
227 Jews. Although the population of
Italy increased more than 100000 dur
ing the last thirty years, the Jewish pop
ulatiOn remained almost stationary. The
Jews enjoy full liberty and equal rights
in all the provinces of Italy. There are
173 Jewish officers in the italian army

Jewish Physicians in Russian

While Russia is sOlemnly declaring to
the United States government that she
can not admit Jewish citizens of this
country to her territory, in her armies
in Manchuria the much -despised Russian
Jewish doctor is binding up the wounds
of her soldiers. Fully One-half accord
ing to some, seventy-five per cent, OF the
physicians at the front are Jews. The
Russian paper, the Novosti, makes the
statement and urges that the restrictions
placed upon the Jews studying in medi-
cal institutions be relaxed, not because
they have earned their right to an edu-
cation. but because Russia needs all the
doctors she can get at present, and Jews
take to the profession of medicine more
naturally than do other Russians. 10

then not give him chance to live seems
to the average Russian mind fair eX-

scians should go on record. When few
fearful Jewish soldiers tried to escape
military duty and fled across the German
border we were told with great wealth
Of detail how they were pursued by pa
triotic soldiers and killed or returned to
their regiments. Let it be known that
there is another Jewish story to be told.
Moderate estimates place the number OF
Jewish soldiers at the front at 10000. Ii
