AN EDUCATED SENTIMENT.

A petit jury in West Chester, Pa,
has sustained the action of the school
board of their city in separating the
eolored children in the public schools
from the white. This verdict was re-
turned in the face of direct charge
action was illegal, as it was a dis
tinction on account of race and color
Despite the law, however, the jury re-
quired but a few minutes to reach it's
findings and, judging from the ex-
pressions of the Pennsylvania news
papers, eminent satisfaction has re-
suited.
The verdicts of JuTies are, as a rule,
the expressions of public sentiment
and may we'll be taken as indicating
the drift of the general opinion in
the sections in which they operate
In the case In point, the jury was
indirectly passing upon a matter of
greater significance than the question
formally presented to them. Practi-
cally they were asked to take a stand
either for or against the separation
of the races. That they stand for that
separation indicates that the North is
| rapidly coming to coincide with the
South In sentiment. at least in so far
as the race question is concerned.
The reason for the change is evil
! dent. The Northern man is learning,
through growing contact with the ne
/ IN 10, a..r ~.
Southern man has known for genera
tions. He is more and more coming
| to realize that there Is bar between
the white race and the black that
cannot be surmounted, bar that ex-
lists from nature and that is not the
mere result of an unfounded preju-
dice. With this realization comes its
kindred knowledge, that the separation
| of the races. so far as social equality
is concerned, is best for both, and
that all things which tend to teach
or establish such equality must be
abandoned.
This change in sentiment through
out the North. as it manifests itself
from time to time. Is a matter on
which the entire country may con-
graduate itself. It means a great
step toward the solution of the race
problem and the doing away with the
sectional friction that has resulted
Judging from the newspaper reports
this righted sentiment is increasing
throughout the North. Let It but be-
come general and a better feeling will
be brought about between the two
great sections Of the country. The
Northern white man, recognizing that
the Southerner knows best how to
deal with the race question will leave
II more and more TO him to solve and
laws which were passed at the dictate
OF a wrong sentiment will be either
repealed or allowed to become mop
erative through disuse.
Sentiment is supreme and will pay
little heed to any laws contrary tc
, It, as the case in Pennsylvania Illus
trates. Though often shaken into err.
ror, yet. like the needle OF the com.
pass, it will finally right itself, though
in many cases the righting is OF com.
parative slow progress Any step m
, that direction, the educating and
, Fighting OF sentiment. is therefore q
subject on which any country ma,
will felicitate itself.

1t may be interesting to prohibition
lists, and others, to know that this is
one of the most temperate countries Of
the world: that is. it stands low in
the scale of countries in the amount of
alcoholic beverages consumed. OFF,
cial statistics gathered by the govern
ment show this to be true. In the per
capita consumption of such beverages
France leads with 1921 gallons per
year. Belgium. owing to it's heavy
beer consumption. follows with 7.SS
gallons. Next in order come Italy
with 6.61 gallons. Germany with 55s
gallons and the United Kingdom with
4.99 gallons. The per capita consump-
tion Of the United States is 1928 gall
Ions, of Sweden 3.O5 gallons and Rus
STA 100 gallons. While Russia stands
ut the foot of the class in per capita
consumption, she consumes actually
more gallons of liquor in grand total
than any other country. She has an
immense population. but the majority
of the people are too poor to buy spir-
ituous liquors.

Mr.. Osbornes article on the recent
election and the political outlook, which
we published yesterday, is an able pa
per and one that will doubtless at
tract considerable attention throughout
the state. 1t contains a number Of
points that ought to set Democrats to
thinking. One of them is this: 1T is
not an esrtravagant statement to make
when I say that there is not a cor
Eoration in the United States to-day
of national Importance that does not
have upon it's pay rolls force of high
salaried men who have no other duty
than TO beg, badger, cajole and intim-
Idate legislative assemblies into grant
tng the monied interests some advan-
tage which the public does not share"
That this is true will hardly be ques-
tioned; it cannot be questioned sue
cessfully. And yet, is it not equally
true that the corporations often have
to fight in self-defense, TO prevent the
conhsoatlon Of their property by means
of antagonistic legislation? 1t some
times happens that in Legislative
bodies there are INSCRIPTIONS men who
get together and form cliques for the
express purpose Of squeezing money
out Of the corporations. They frame
bills aimed at the corporations, and
then say to them in effect. Now, come
across with so much money, or we will
put this thing through" 1t has been
only a short while since the public
was shown an example illustrating the
point IN the Missouri Doodle cases

SUPPLY OF OXYGEN FOR FIREMEN.

An experiment has recently been
made in Paris with an ingenious APP

otherwise be impossible to breathe. The
apparatus is automatic, that is, it
has no connection with the air out

1t is composed Of a tube containing
a provision of oxygen, sufficient to
last a man for breathing purposes for
more than an hour, and a helmet of
aluminium fitting the head exactly by
means of a pneumatic pad. The oxy=

Howard w. Ferris, OF Batesburg, S.
c., has just returned to his home with
no lung or ribs on his right side, aft
err undergoing a hazardous surgical
operation at the Hahnemann Hospital
Ferris had so far improved that the
surgeons were confident of his COM
plete recovery. The operation was per-
formed last August.
Ferris contracted pneumonia while on
a trip as a travelling salesman, and
for weeks was in a critical condition
Physicians at his home removed pleuri-
tic effusion from time to time, but
he failed to recover strength, and came
here. After a rib had been removed
last July a second operation was per-
formed on Aug. 20. DR.. Carl v. Wis

ribs. Twice while the tedious opera
ton was In progress the doctors
thought the patient had suceumbed, but

TREE PLANTING On TEXAS PLAINS
From the Galveston News.

From the Galveston News.
The Fort Worth and Denver Rail-
road is doing a good many good things
for the pan handle country. Not the
least promising of these is it's effort
to promote the growth of forest trees
upon the plains. The prospective bene-
fits are several. The trees will fur
nish firewood and fence posts, and it
is believed they will promote more
even distribution of rainfall, lower the
temperature of the sometime hot winds,
and protect the crops from such winds.
More than $4,000 trees were planted
in 1908, very nearly all of them be-
ing of the black locust species. The
benefits are not altogether prospective.
One of the tree planters, A. Frinster-
wald of Mobeetle, reports that for three
years past he has been getting fence
posts from seedlings planted seven
years ago; that during this time he has
got sufficient posts to keep his fences
in repair and to build fourteen miles
Of new fence. 1t looks very much
as if this tree planting propaganda
would result in a beneficial revolution
in the pan handle country, greatly in
creasing it's agricultural possibilities.

Already some OF the trusts are ap-
parently taking steps to recoup them
selves Of the sums they contributed
to the Republican campaign fund. 1t
has been announced that the price of
steel billets will be advanced from
$3.50 to $2l per ton. An expert says
they can be manufactured with a fair
profit at Sl2 per ton. Every manufac-
turer who uses steel billets as a raw
material will be compelled to contrib
ute to the trusts recoupment fund, and
all consumers of steel articles will be
taxed higher for the articles they buy.
Thus, in the long run, it will be the
consumer who will have to repay the
money the trusts expended for cam
paign PURPOSES.
