Since the few days of warm
weather, wheat has changed from
no color to deep green. Glover is
also beginning to show its partial

ting forth their greens. The coun-
try people will soon have nothing
to look upon but green landscapes
and nothing to eat but turnip
greens. Then why should we won
der and grit our teeth when we are
called country greenies?"

THE BEST SIGN OF
A SOUND CONVERSION

Merchants in England and Wales are happy over the
fact that the great religious revival is causing people to
pay their debts.
Here is a substantial good result Of religious hus.
iasm which even the hardest-headed material must
acknowledge.
Missionary work in heather lands makes go
mers for the products of civilization. 1t has 10 ..
recognized that in a broad way, the dollar in the mis-
sionary box is the best Investment business men can make.
And now the English and Welsh merchants are learning
that money given in support of reyivalists comes back
multiplied many times.
The mystery of some peoples financial irresponsible
ity has never been fathomed. They may be the soul of
conscience in every respect but this. Perhaps they never
get a dollars worth of any commodity without a firm in
tent!on to pay for it. But somehow they never do pay for
it, and all the while the thought of not paying for it is
harassing and even shocking to them. There is needed an
authoritative psychological study of the respectable, we'll
meaning "deadbeat."
Probably no one on earth save a bishop of the Eng
fish church would have been found to object to the revival
which began in Wales and is spreading in England on the
ground that 1t is causing people to pay their debts. The
bishop of Carlisle in a recent address, expressed his
scorn of this sort of conversion and minated that the
man whose moral sense had not already made him honest
was a doubtful acquisition, under an emotional impulse
to any Religious organization. A man, he said, should
be honest up and down and through and through. A ere
ligion of emotion and crocodile tears might cause the
man who was not thus honest to pay his debts, but it
would hardly transform him into a person of real con
science.
The idea Of the man who is as religious out of church
as in 1t and who never required conversion to prevent his
buying things that he had no serious intention of paying
for is attractive. There are many such men. Yet it is
easily to be fancied that the merchants and shop keepers,
of whatever faith or moral system, are pleased when they
see the revivalists pricking dulled consciences and caus-
ing long standing accounts to be settled.
In spite of the adverse opinion of the bishop of Car
Isle, the commonly-accepted view among levelheaded
business men must be that the conversion which causes
"deadbeats' to pay their debts is a frstrate kind of con-
version.
The convert who takes time from his praying to hunt
up and square his accounts may not stand the highest
with the bishop, but he makes a hit with all the rest and
no doubt a harp already tuned awaits him on high.

ABOUT DEMAND FOR
y BUSINESS EDUCATION

Frank A. Vanderlip, formerly first assistant secretary
of the federal treasury, and now vice president of the
National City Bank of New York, is worried because col
leges do not teach business to their students.
Vanderlip has been pleading with the university con-
vocation for a university education especially adapted to
men who are to lead commercial lives.
Vanderlip must be accepted as an expert witness on
the subject of business qualifications. He has long been
closely allied with the classes with whom business is a
fine art.
But the main question is whether the country wants
those classes enlarged. Another question is whether edu.
cation has anything to do with the production of such
classes.
A lack of business training has never been regarded
as one of the crying evils of American life. The business
men with whom Vanderip is allied seem to be doing well,
even in the absence Of special university training. Had
possibly be owning the whole earth, with a fence
around it.
The directors of the National City bank, for example,
though they have had no special university business
training, were able to purchase the New York custom
house from the federal treasury on terms that have
amazed and puzzled the country. Does Vanderlip hope
that, with special university training, they would be abe
to take over the entire federal treasury on even easier
terms?
Had the managers of the Equitable had special uni
yersity training would they have succeeded better il
| turning the peoples money to their own private use?
q Rockefeller, without any university training at all
has acquired a billion. If specially trained would h
have acquired a hundred billions?
Not much! Greed is not to be developed through tn
J. intellect. Money making Is an instinct which men shar
e with the ant and the bee and the swine. Education ha
t little TO do with it except TO weaken the instinct.
A university that will teach real business methods
d with a compulsory course in ethics and honesty, Nigh
g work to the advantage of all except those who are no
thriving on the policy of grab-alyoucan-get

orFENsE OF ENGINEER WALLACE.

Much unseemly and unnecessary comment has been
INDUCED in by the public press over the resignation OF
John F. Wallace, chief engineer of the Ishmian canal.
Here Is what he did. He had a job in a country
where there is yellow fever, malaria, high temperature
and low morals; tarantuias, snake bites and funerals
every hour. And there he took orders from men who
knew about as much about canal building IS a pig does
about logarithms, and who could issue them while swing
ing in hammocks and breathing Gods pure air, the while
the waiter mixed cooling drinks and served them.
Mr.. Wallace was offered a better job. 1t was more
congenial and carried a higher salary. So he quit. He
simply exercised his right as an American citizen to lay
down one job and take another, which is a right dear to
the heart of every free man.
Secretary Taft calls Wallace a rank deserter,' which
Is a pretty tough sort of a name to hitch to any man.
The president accepted the resignation and wrote a
"curt note" which must have hurt like blazes.
And now. so far as officialdom is concerned, John F.
Wallace can go hang.
One wonders how long Mr.. Wallace would have been
kept in office had Secretary Taft or the president desired
to dispense with his services, and if patriotism would
have cut any figure in such an event.
About seven seconds is the answer-iust long enough
to write on a telegraph blank: you're fred
It makes all the difference in the world whose OK is
gOred.

rHE AMERICAN AurocRAr.

Thinking men long ago concluded that if this country
shall ever lose it's liberties II will be through the judiciary,
says an exchange. The entertainments of the courts upon
the fundamental principles OF popular government have
been rapid and marked, and in some states they are pro-
ceeding with accelerated speed.
The power conferred upon the courts 70 undo the work
of both legislatures and the people is the kernel OF the
danger. This, backed by the power to punish whoever may
criticise them In an unfriendly spirit, as for contempt,
make them antagonists of the people when they assume
TO assail their rights, not only formidable but almost IN
conquerable. They are the last resort for whatever comes
within their jurisdiction, and if they are without jurisdic.
ton they may usurp it.
There is no appeal from any wrong they commit. The
judiciary is the one department of government that may
indict, try and convict for real or imaginary ofenses
against what il is pleased to term its dignity" The court
may reverse the will of the people on any project, and the
people have no appeal.
The people of Kansas, through their legisltors, passed
a bill and made an appropriation for an oil refinery. The
court overrides the will of the people by declaring the
legislative enactment unconstitutional.
The nation at large, through its representatives and
senators in congress, passed an income tax Jaw. The fed
eral supreme court declared the law unconstitutional, ami
the will of the nation was baked.
The power of the people should be supreme over e7'
cry thing else. but our government lacks the method by
which this power of the people may be expressed and APP
nlied.

BEAUTY IN THE SCHOOLS.

President Eliot's idea of teaching beauty in the
schools may well enough be developed without making it
an obstructive fad.
Beauty is no ATTACHED frll or fringework. It is au
important part of the soul of things. 1t is TO education
and to life what the color and the odor are to the rose.
The very best instruction in the knowledge of beauty
is insensible, and gained while the mini may be actually
engaged in taking in something else. Beauty is best
taught by beautiful surroundings and by incessant sGg-
g~estion, and these things are actually possible in a city
school.
Today the surroundings of the school child are very
much more beautiful than they were a generation ago
Good architecture and a little landscape gardening have
replaced the old plain buildings and the old bare grounds
Pictures, busts and pleasing tints have succeeded the Ole
black whitewashed and blackboarded walls.
The harvest Of this atmosphere of improved sugges
ton is being reaped in the much easier adaptability o
this generation TO beautiful ideas in industrial art and II
the immeasurably increased beauty Of the home.
Albuquerque must wait for a better water system
before her children can receive much instruction in tn
beauty Of plant life and growth.

mo WHITE CHIPS IN THE GAME"

my dear sir, there are no white chips in this game
was the bit of airy persiflage, which an attorney for one OF
Mr.. Devlin's coal companies handed out to a Chicago man
who presented a claim against the Topeka millionaire for
5000.
1t may be doubted, says an exchange, whether the
appreciated the exquisite humor
of this way of classifying the small creditors of Banker
Devlin. You see, in this failure everything, as the "dago'
fruiterer would put it, Is 'grata big" When you come
TO remember that when strangers went to Topeka the
very first thing they were told was about the great
wealth of Mr.. Devlin-thath he was worth certainly as much
as 5 million dollars and probably as much as S MILLIONS,
his high standing in the financial world needs no expla-
nation.
Now, what right had anybody to have dealings with
such a Croesus involving only $4,000? What room was
there for such a bagatelle in the big game Devlin was
playing? Couldn't these "pikers' see that the big, strong
banks were fairly crowding 100000 loans on Mr.. Devlin?
How could they overlook the significant fact that he was
even taking the cautious and conservative Topeka fnan-
ciers off their feet? You may talk about the tragedy
when the "pikers' are caught for all they have, and the
pity of It all, but can anybody exercise sufficient compass
sion to excuse the stupidity of putting up any white
chips in such a game as Devlin played?

SEEMS A LITTLE EXERCISED.

The Journal seems to be a little exercised as to the
position which The Citizen and Mr.. Stricken take on the
investigation Of Bernalilo county officers pending before
the governor. The Hubbells seem to have been able to
take care OF themselves with the Journal in the past and
it seems clear that they will be able to take care Of them
selvs as far as the governor is concerned without the aid
of either the Journal or Citizen. II is also quite evident
that the governor can pass on the merits Of the case with
out the assistance of either paper. When a decision Is
rendered The Citizen will give the. public all the news in
regard to it. This is the sole function of a newspaper II
the premises.
In the meantime we would suggest that the Journa
devote its energies IN securing a session Of the specia
committee Of the city council on the water works prop
OsitOn. Plenty Of water for baths and other purposes dur
ing his warm weather would be quite refreshing If tn,
thought Of S5 cents per Instead of g cents per did not re
strict its use.
