Saloons and Sunday Closing.

The situation created by the activity
of the. Home Protective league is one
of panic and ill-temper among the sa-
loon. men. They. are trying to work
themselves into a position Of perse-
cuted patriots against whom an unholy
war is being waged.
We do not think that demand for
the enforcement of the Sunday law
against saloons in the residence portion
of the city will ever rise to the pathetic
dignity Of a persecution, but it seems
there are saloonists> with imagination
sufficiently vivid to picture themselves
in this precise situation.
What to do about it's The Sunday
saloon law is there and the league can
enforce it if it wishes. There is no
doubt about that. Any citizen who has
the evidence can bring "a. Sunday sa-
loonist into court and make him take
his medicine. It does not even need
a league This, is the situation, SO
far as the saloons are concerned.
But. there are other Sunday laws.
There is very comprehensive Sunday
| law which prohibits all unnecessary
work on the first day Of the week. BY
invoking this some Of the saloon men
seem to think they could make a diver
sion which would be Of advantage te
them. Probably not, SO far as the Home
! Protective league is concerned. The

The Russian Viewpoint.

Princess Frances Cantacuzene, the
widow Of Russian nobleman, has been
interviewed in New York on the peace
conference, and says: "Americans can
not understand the. Russian viewpoint
They cry out against serfs, but I, who
own serfs, know there is no other ar
rangement possible. The peasants are
untitled to take any part in the man
agement Of the country.' Regarding the
Kishinef massacre, the princess again
expressed her polite : regret that the
Americans could not get at the Russian
viewpoint. cit is the Russian spirit
to fire first and adjust differences later.
In strike times even the American SOL
diers fire on mobs.'
The princess will soon sail for Russia
foreman several years. She ought to
be a useful member of Russian society,"
She seems to have the Russian view
point very pat. The remarkable thing
about this interview is that the woman
who gave it was born in America of
American parents. Her marriage with
Russian prince appears to have made
aeratitle and privilege mad.

New York s Antitip Law.

The antitipping law Of Senator Mar
tin Sake Of New York goes into effect
today and the district attorneys office
expects to- do a land-office business for
time in the Interpretation of its pro-
visions.
The law was intendeds by it's author
to get after the large amount of brib-
cry that is annually committed in New
York in the guise of gratuities or tips
The buffers, coachmen, Wallets and
maids of the rich make enormous sums
every year by robbing their employ
ers. For example the butler is tipped
to direct the trade Of the millionaire
toward certain dealers. The butcher,
the baker and all the rest of the deal
ers have arrangements with the but
lers whereby they get the trade and
the butler, gets bride which is prob
| ably added to thescost of the goods or
subtracted from their weight. The
maid is in the pay of the :milliner and
dressmaker; the coachman has a stand
ing with the horse dealer, the harness
maker and the horseshoer. The en-
ployer, is paying high prices for ordin-
airy service and the employee is pocket
ing more than his salary in brides.
The law aims to restrain this class
| of thievery but it is said to draw some
very fine distinctions between actual
tips or gratuities and bribes. For in.
stance a guest may tip the butler at
a. b:ol 1o 1c c4o I,
baker cannot tip the butler to allow
| him to deliver the pies for the family
| You may tip the waiter for bringing
your dinner promptly, but you cannot
pay him to bring you a dollar Dime,
for fifty cents. The latter would be
| bribery.
The law also tries to restrain one OF
the growing evils of the railroad world
the bribing Of railroad purchasing
agents to divert the buying Of the rail
road toward certain concerns by whom
they are bribed. This traffic has grown
to immense proportions and has become
positive scandal in the great railroad
centers. The tipping Of public serv
ants to divert purchases is also becom
ing common, and is an evil the tax Law
will try to minimize.
Another form of tyranny and graf
which has become well nigh intolerabl,
in New York is the suzerainty, exercised
| by janitors Of fiat buildings. In many
Of them the dealer who does not stant
in with the janitor cannot make de
| livery Of goods to tenant. One o.
| the first efforts Of the district attorne,
| will be to apply the law to these pest
| of modern life. If the law is fopnt
| strong enough to bring to book thu
great American janitor, the law depart
ment is confident it will be readily ap
Piled to the other evils it is meant t
i correct.

Pussy Mothers.

Across the aisle from me, says a
writer in the Boston Herald, sat one
of the fussy' kind of mothers with
her little girl. The mother didn't
leave the child in peace for an instant.
She took off her hat; she smoothed
her hair; she repinned her collar; she
wiped her face with pocket handk =
chief, she took her from the seat and
stood her on the floor to straighten her
frock; she took off her hair ribbon and
retied it; then she began at the begin
ming and did all of these things over
again. The child grimly endured it.
Evidently she had been accustomed to
it all her short life. ~
The energetic attentions of mothers
to their children are certainly exhaust
ing. Some mothers have an idea that
children have no means Of locomotion;
that to get them on or off car you
must half drag, half carry them. In
streetcar the child is given credit for
no notion OF what seat is like. It
is not to be trusted to take one, but
must be violently pushed, thrust and
assaulted into it. It is the same in

This appears to be desideratum, espe

PROMISE or GOOD THINGS IN THE
FIRST ARRIVALS FROM THE FALL
OFFERINGS OF DOUBLEDAY, PAGE e.
cO.-One Of the first books of fiction from
Doubleday, Page & Co.'s fall list
Is Claims and CountercIaims, by Maud
Wilder Goodwin, author Of -Four Roads
to Paradise" This new book is one OF
the kind that gives situation Cone that
any reader may easily imagine his OWN,
and then works it out to a logical conclu-
sion. good story Of the kind takes a
very strong hold upon the reader. He
knows, or thinks he knows, what he
would do under the circumstances and he
is kept in a constant state Of suspense
lest the hero fall down. and thereby
lose the title of hero, in the readers esti-
nation, at least TX
The hero in Claims and Counter
claims Is Anthony Dixie, a physician.
The situation results from his rescue
from almost certain death, by Eustace
Brandyce, at the risk of the latter's life.
Despite a distrust of Brandyce, Dixie
feels his obligation keenly, and tells
Brandyce that If he can ever repay him,
no matter what the cost, he will do so.
Later both men come to love the same
woman, and Dixie discovers that his dis
trust of Brandyce Is we'll founded. What
shall he do?
The problem looks easy, but to a man
of Dilkes temperament it would not be.
Its solution by the author is deftly done,
tho in places a lack of FEASIBILITY leaves
the reader unsatisfed, as, for example
when Dixie hangs out a sign-"Anthony

increases with each succeeding chapter
and the pleasure of reading is enhanced
by flashing epigrams, such as: r, l.

things to which the Ethiopians skin and the

Keep Your Eye on the Consumer

The Journals well-informed
Washington correspondent, who has re-
Gently spent considerable time and has
travelled extensively in Canada, writes
advisedly today on the prospect Of the
adoption by Canada of a system Of high
protection, the highest side being placed
toward the United States. He brings
out how and why this is likely to come
about, and adds tariff barrier calcu-
lated to cut off an export trade Of $175,-
100000 annually to the threats now be-
ing made against American trade in
Europe. s>'-
AS we have already stated, the an
swer which the high protectionist makes
to these apprehensions with regard to
discrimination against American trade
abroad is that our foreign trade, in
manufactured goods at least, is con-
stantly and rapidly increasing and is
bigger now than ever before. Your high
protectionist points to the magnificent
totals Of exports in manufactures dur
ing the past fiscal year and refuses to
listen to any suggestion that our ex-
port trade is threatened in any rdirec-
ton by the rise of a feeling of retalia-
tion backed by prohibitory tariffs
erected between us and some Of our
most important foreign markets.
Nevertheless, the time is soon COM
ing when the policy Of the high pro-
tectionist, shaped and directed as it al
ways has been upon the theory that
the home consumer will bear any bur
den which may be laid upon him,
must be changed. The home consum-
er has patiently borne the burden of
high prices in order that the home pro-
Queer might be guaranteed his home
market on the one hand and on the
other has rejoiced in the ability of the
home manufacturer to gain foothold
in the foreign market. But when the
home consumer begins to realize, as he
does, already to some extent, that the
export trade is largely supported at the
expense Of the home consumer, who is
| compelled, in order to maintain the
prosperity of the manufacturing in.
| dustry, to pay price higher than is
| charged for the same articles abroad
he will cease to bear this burden with
patience. He will call for "square
deal'; and the manufacturer will nc
longer be able to make up in over
charges at home for his low price
abroad. It is this. necessity of dealing
fairly with the home consumer that is
going to compel the high protectionist
in the near future to take an active in
terest in tariff reform as the best means
of the protection of his foreign trade
by means Of reasonable reciprocal
trade relations.

am one of those who believe that no

There's a.fgreat storehouse where L go
How found it 1 do not know.
l could not think it meant for me,
But suddenly lay in my hand the key
Of the storehouse where 1 go.
1t is not given me here to point or name
The path l took or the way l came;
But there are beautiful things for all,
And high is the roof and wide the wall
OF the storehouse where 1 go.
One who is wise to me did say,
All that we take we must give away,
Never to claim and hold the store,
But ever to carry more and more
From the storehouse where go.
1 have asked of many to use my key,
But 1t will not open except for me:
And 1 think you will find you have one, too,
That opens for no one else but you
