Yoke Shirt Waists ponuInr.

Batiste and handkerchief linen shirt
waists will be worn all winter, but
many waists of heavy linen are now
being made for the forthcoming sea-
son. There seems an indication to re-
turn TO the really mannish shirt waist
in the finishing touch of linen collar
and black tie.
Whether made Of madras, heavy lin
en-, albatross or sicilienne, all the new
est models are yoked in some sort Of
way. The ingenious dressmaker may
develop all kinds of new ideas in yokes
and be within the edict of fashion.

WOMAN AND FASHION
For the SCHOOLGIRL.

The schoolgirl is an important per
sonage at this season of the year. and
her wardrobe requires a generous
amount of thought and consideration.
Here is an exceedingly smart and at
tractive little frock which suits her
needs to nicely, is absolutely simple
at the same time that it is in the
height of style and is adapted to vari-
GUS materials. In this instance plaid is
trimmed with black and white banding
and combined with chemisette of taf-
Teta embroidered in eyelet style, and

AS to colors, black is back and plum
color promises to be strong. Blue is
staple and is popular this year as we'll,
carrying out the predictions made last
spring and summer. Next to blue is
green, especially in the shades that de-
pend upon olive tones. And red will
have a hearing.

Simple designs, which can be made
at home by the inexperienced home
sewer, are always welcome 1t is often
the home fashioned waist which out
does the more elaborate in becoming

straps of stitched silk or all over lace.
There is no difficulty possible in the
pattern. as the full fronts and backs
are gathered at top and bottom and
the yoke fits smoothly over the lining.
A soft crush girdle in silk or the ma
terial is the most graceful finish at the
waist line. The sleeve may be made
short. with ii full frill of lace at the
elbow and the neck in Dutch round
outline.

Why it Was Passed.

Viewed in the light of recent develop
ments, it is easy to understand why the
famous Grady Salus libel law was pass
ed. The men who were behind it, steep
ed in corruption to their very lips and
knowing that their acts could not for a
moment stand the light of publicity,
sought to stifie inquiry and exposure.
The newspapers of the State must be
muzzled, if possible, and these short
sighted leaders, ostrich-like. believed
that the threat of the laws terrors
would force the press into silence and
submission AS long as no one dared
call their crimes into question they
thought they were safe from molesta-
tion in career of public wrongdoing.
Therefore they took advantage of the
thin skin and vanity of the man who
had been foisted into the Governorship,
and forced the passage of this libel law.
The protests of all decent citizens who
believe in free press, subject only to
reasonable and rational limitations,
were brutally ignored The measure
was iammed through the Legislature,
and, once passed, its trainers and fathers
fancied themselves secure and free to
work their nefarious will in public af-
fairs. Never were men worse deceived.
The press of the State paid no heed to
them or their law, but went on in its
legitimate work Of exposing graft and
crookedness wherever manifested. In
Philadelphia, where political iniquity
found its most daring field, the press,
with possibly an ignoble exception,
never for moment slackened its efforts
for honest government and the exposure
of the wrongdoers. 1t was uphill work
and long fight. but the victory came
at last. Proof was heaped upon proof
until public sentiment was awakened
and the public conscience was touched
to the quick The crimes of the gang
were laid bare to the State and the
country, the result being such an up
heaval as the United States has not
witnessed in a generation. Today the
gang is defeated, disgraced, overthrown.

The Damn Family.

The troubles of the whole Damn
family, largely ascribed to the Damn
dog, were aired in the Harlem police
court in New York, Monday. Her
man Damn was charged with cruelty
to Mrs. Damn. who had three vigor-
GUS Damn children clinging to her
skirts. Policeman Kelly, who made
the arrest, could not suppress a broad
grin-which was quickly impaired to
the stern countenance OF the judge.
well, observed the magistrate to
his clerk, Il have heard of the whole
Damn family in fiction and l under
stand the family has been dramatized
but l never dreamed that the whole
Damn family was a reality, and l am
sorry to learn that its members are so
pugnacious.
AS the Damn family have a very
slight speaking acquaintance with the
English language, it was with difficult
ty that the court learned that the row
resulted from the husbands bringing
home a yellow dog, and then there were
blows exchanged.
There was commotion in the rear of
the court room, followed by loud yells
That's the Damn dog" said Officer
Kelly. Hes followed the whole Damn
family to court.
Put the Damn dog out" ordered
the magistrate. The Damn dog was
elected and the defendant was discharg-

A Revival of Public Morals.

1t may be delusion, but there are
strong indications of moral and polit-
1cal revival in this country. The time
appears to be close at hand when polit-
ical machines for the ACKNOWLEDGMENT
interest in public affairs beyond pro-
noting the schemes of a few individ-
uals, will be looked upon as political
pirates Grafters Of all kinds will be
regarded as criminals, as they are, and
not as 'shrewd men who know how to
make things come their way" A higher
political morality is already being de-
easily diagnosed. and nothing that is
not genuine will pass.
A good deal of this revival of con-
science may be attributed to President
Roosevelt The example set by the
head of nation has great influence
on the people. The histories of all
countries prove this In Rome the bad
emperors inevitably corrupted the
morals of the people and the good ones
improved them.
The importance of having men of ex-
alted character and incerruptible in
tegrity at the head of affairs cannot be
overestimated. and the keenest discern
ment on the part of the people is nee
essary to distinguish the genuine from
the spurious. Demagogues and pre-
tenders to pure and patriotic motives
are constantly seeking to impose them
selves on the people, and only high in
telligence, unceasing vigilance and un-
selfish patriotism on the part of the
voters can prevent their ascendancy to
place and power.
A process of renovation and regenera-
ton seems now to be in progress. The
example set by the present administra-
tion in tolerating nothing that is in the
least degree tanned with rottenness in
public affairs, has spread to municipal
governments and to private business.
Cities are being cleansed of grafters
and insurance companies are being prob
ed to the bottom. That the good work
will continue is the prayer of every
patriotic citizen. Spirit.

tween Etna and Undercliff, The track
extends one mile, 600 feet of which is
double-tracked. 1t was laid for the

quarter-inch flange on its inner side

high, and rest on plate. They are
connected at intervals of eight feet by
an iron bar called bride, which
screws into chain attached to the rail

POLITICAL.

The anti Elkins movement in West
Virginia took definite form at the meet
ing at White Sulphur Springs, last
Thursday. That state is one OF the
worst boss ridden in the Union, both as
regards political and business condi-
tions.
sIt is my opinion that this fight
which Mayor Weaver is making for
clean government will clarity political
conditions throughout the State. 1t
will mean the end Of the feeling against
Philadelphia that has been engendered
by gang methods.
Congressman Ernest F. Acheson made
this declaration in Philadelphia shortly
before leaving the city for his home in
Washington county.
A Philadelphia assessor has included
Justice John p. Elkin of Indiana county
in the list Of voters for his district, and
after exposure justifes it by saying
that he called at the Hotel Walton for
List Of voters resident there. and was
80 hurried that he put down all the
names that the clerk ratified off" tc
him. The assessor who puts down all
the names ratified off to him is typical
ii the localities where there is use for
padded registration. .-Ex.
City people often make sport Of farm
ers, and some of the more brainless and
supercilllous ones regard them as In
ferior beings. But the fact remains
that when corruptionists and political
pirates are ruling the cities and their
Inhabitants are weakly holding up their
hands while their pockets are being
rifled and their morals corr upted, the
agricuiturist maintains his independ-
ence and his integrity. Save in few
unfortunate instances he is not to be
bribed or intimidated. He has no
mentor but his own conscience, and the
state and nation may rely rpon him to
uphold its honor and its credit. The
sturdy farmers constitute the brake
and the balance wheel which prevents
the engine of republican government
from tearing itself to pieces from its
own impetus, They are the ballast OF
tho skip VI state which keeps it from
being overturned by the waves of
avarice and selfishness which dash
against it.-Ex.

Words of Root. Impulse of
Roosevelt.

These words. at tonce SO blistering and
90 inspiring, are written by the premier
of the Republican National administra-
-tfon They breathe the spirit, as they
reflect the impulse, of Theodore Roose-
veIt. They fix the brand of condemna-
tion on the conspirators, and tear off
the mask OF Repubiicanism with which
they seek to disguise their corrupt and
criminal combination. With such
declaration from the highest Republi-
can authority the anti-graft Republi-
cans will take fresh zeal and courage in
their campaign against the grafters and
al the pro -grafters. They are fighting
to redeem the party from the stigma
which false pretenders would fasten on
it. They knew that all honest Repub-
licans mnst be with them. and now
they have the commission and the god
speed of the National Republican lead
ership. Philadelphia Press.
