Electric Waves.

Electric, waves measured by Hertz
and named after him-were found by
the great scientist to be 80 feet from
the top of one wave to the top Of the
next. The waves used by Marconi in
telegraphing across the Atlantic are
much longer. They are said to be 600
feet or more. They travel at the same
speed as light, $4,000 miles a second.
But the light wave measures only a
few nil Jnths of an inch.

Many a prospective kindergarten and
primary grader did not get away even with

and the steady downpour of rain. Princi-
pals said the enrolment on the first day
this fall may run behind those Of other
years when the opening day was fair,
The sloppy streets and the leaden skies

sending tender youngsters to school and
they decided to wait for fairer meteorologt-

The public schools began the years work
without delays accidents or unusual events,
so far as reported to the office of the super
intendent. Only few teachers were de-
tained by sickness or other reasons from
taking charge of their classes and sub
sttutes had been arranged for in advance.
The size Of the stan was increased by
seven instructors for the three additional

about 500, and a permit has been secured
from the city for the construction.

Leading interpretations
And lnfractions of the Law

Beginning with the Jan. 30 decision
of the United States supreme court,
which sustained the Grosscup injunc-
ton against the beef trust, several
opinions handed down by the higher
courts have seemed to lean toward the
validity Of antitrust legislation and ex-
tension of the larger corporations OBJ
legations toward the public The high
est court also upheld the Kansas and
Texas antitrust laws in February. In
May the same court declared the New
York franchise tax and the Kentucky
corporation tax laws to be valid, and
In July it sustained the Arkansas anti
trust law.
In twenty EIGHT states extensive pros
ecutions have been instituted against
commercial or political graft, while the
federal government has actually
brought number of the land grabbers
to conviction and beef packers to trial.
On Sept. "a at Chicago four beef
packers were convicted Of accepting re-
bates and We're fined $4,000. Prosecu-
tons were begun at Philadelphia, Chi
cago and other railroad centers Dec IS

road officials for violation of the re-
bate law. The gamblers, big and little,
have been checked by Jerome in New

BY the death Of Secretary Hay. His
bold Characterization of the Penrose-
Durham organization as "a corrupt and
criminal combination masquerading
under the names of Republicans" gave
courage to the long enslaved party
worshipers of the keystone State. A
similar note of independence on the
part of the administration was sound
ed by Secretary Taft's Akron co.
speech in October. In big and little
cities wherever an individual or an or
ganization stood squarely for some
moral principle of local affairs the vot-
ers responded effectively.
The enormous vote for Hearst in
New York city as the candidate of the
Municipal Ownership league, such that
Mayor McClellan's official majority
was contested in the courts, was mere
ly an echo of another electoral triumph
for municipal ownership earlier in the
year-namely, Chicago's choice of the
Democratic candidate for mayor
Dunno, by $4,000 over Harlan, the Re
publican. Although Mayor Dunno has
been able to accomplish little toward
immediate city ownership of the street
railroads on account of the majority in
the city council against that policy,
his election on that issue has gone
far toward committing the national
Democratic organization to the general
principle of government ownership of
public utilities The Socialist vote fell
off wherever the municipal ownership
candidates were put up. In this return
of the Democracy toward radical poll
cies the figure of William j. Bryan
doomed up again with prospect of
dominance. He urged the Democrats
to support Roosevelt in trust busting
policy and started with his family on
a world tour Sept. 27.
But of all the political reactions of
the year nothing had more far reach
ing effects than the course of the New
York legislative investigation of the
great life insurance corporations, be-
gun Sept. 6 under the Craftsmanship Of
Senator Armstrong and the skillful
probing of the committees counsel
Charles E. Hughes. This was brought
