Harvard Ensllsh.-As interest in foot
ball has gone up the ability to spell has
gone down. Here is a concomitant va
ration which probably is worth nothing
except to call attention to the fact that
college men lack great deal in ability to
spell. New England Magazine for De-
cember calls attention to the situation
at Harvard as disclosed In a manu-
script submitted for publication. By
actual count forty-four common words in
the paper are misspelled. The editor
suggests that the university is a good
place to teach spelling, but it can do
that best by refusing entrance to those
who have not the application or the abil-
| ity- to learn rudiments.

CEICd8O ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. y. y
Judge James B. Bradwe1l, the gray
bearded pioneer Of this city, possesses
an interesting relic of Abraham Lincoln.
It Is nothing less than an epigrammatic
definition Of democracy, in the hand
writing of the fnartyred president. The
document reads:
"As would not be slave, SO I would
not be master. This expresses my idea
of democracy. Whatever differs from
this, to the extent Of the difference, is
no democracy. A Lincoln.

Free Trade with the Philippines

- IL o(LO WILL O41S L I'LL
Senator Dubois in his article on the
Filipinos in The ournal's Sunday
Magazine makes a point, in favor of
freer trade, with the Philippines, which
deserves to be emphasized still further
He says that wheE the Taft commission
took testimony on the question of the
tariff between the islands and the
United States the native sugar planters
supported their demand. for free trade
with the argument that free trade
would not increase sugar production so
T. much as to interfere with sugar produc-
/ tior in the United States, that it's ad-
! vantage to them would consist chiefly in
enabling them to get better price for
their product in Japan and China.
AS it is now, Japan and China, know
ing that they do not have free access to
the markets of the United States, beat
down the prices of the Filipino produc-
ers and compel them to sell at much
. less figure than they would be able to
charge if they. had an outlet in the
United States. The price of sugar
made in the Philippines is fixed in Hong
kong, but Hongkong would not be
/ able to fix as low price if the Asiatic
coast did not constitute practically al
the outlet afforded for the product.
This is point in favor of greater
freedom of trade between the island.
and the United States, which has mo-
been made heretofore and which is de
. serving Of considerations. 1t should b,
known definitely whether the Filipino
will be likely to reap the advantage
they claim from free trade, and whethe
& free trade would measurably diver

No Regrets, Anyway.

Judge Phillips of the United States
court upholds the president and Attor-
ney General Moody in not seeking to
fasten upon Secretary Paul Morton re-
sponsibility for the alleged violation
Of the interstate commerce law by the
Santa Fe railroad. Mr.. Morton, it will
be remembered, was in charge Of the
traffic department Of the Santa Fe road
before he became a member of Presi-
dent Roosevelt's cabinet. While he
was in the cabinet prosecution Of the
road conducted by special counsel, Har-
mon and Judson, arrived at point
where they thought the situation de-
sponsible for the deliberate violation
Of the law. The trails seemed to lead
to Mr.. Morton's cabin. Mr.. Morton,
however, disavowed any personal re-
sponsibility or knowledge of the Of
Tense, the president declined to author
ize the proceedings which Harmon and
Judson favored, and they resigned from
the case. ..
The president was quite generally
criticised for his action in the matter
in which he was upheld by Attorney
General Moody. Judge Phillips ha
now given out an opinion to the etfec
that the president is right-that Their
was nothing to Justify the action which
| the special attorneys sought to take
and in this way has supported the pres
ident and his attorney general. Posi-
bly, they were right, but nevertheless
the country has never regretted tina

The Chicago Bank Incident.

The nrompt action of the Chicago
clearing house has averted what might
have developed into a serious situation
in connection with the closing or the
Walsh banks. The clearing house
by guaranteeing that all deposltors
would be paid in full has, made public
uneasiness unnecessary. The lnsCl-
tutions which have failed were prac-
ticallv one and were the property OF
John R. Walsh, who has for years been
a leading light in Chicago.
{ Mr.. Walsh has been a man intensely
: loyal to Chicago and it is his enterprise
+ which has caused his downfall financial
Sly. He backed stone quarrying en-
! terprise in Indiana very heavily, with
the idea of getting its product into the
+ Chicago market at a low cost. He met
I an obstacle in the high freight charges
of the Monon, railroad. To get around
this he spent millions on railroad only
1 to find that he was not strong enough
! to force it's entrance into Chicago. All
: of these drawbacks made his enterprises
. while sound and businesslike, slow OF
/ development. The banks advanced toe
much money to these enterprises with
) the result that the other banks of Chi
cago have been obliged to take over MI
= Walsh s business and come to the res
-, cue of his banks. -,
This they have done in such an in
: credibly brief time for consideration
: that it is an evidence of the marvelou:
strength and the prompt initiative o:
( the Chicago bankers. The result will
y. be that when the Walsh enterprises ART
! ripen.ed some one will make a big lot o:
money out of them. -. ..-
This does not appear to be case lik
the Milwaukee bank, where there wa

these dispensaries were at the time

the books in the oupt of Education,
Auditor and Treasurers offices we
noted that S9S69.G4 of the school
funds were brought forward from
last year and that some schools in
certain townships ran only Il few
months when there were sufficient
funds to have run much longer.
This, we believe is due to the care
lessness and efficiency of the school
trustees and We recommend that the
proper authorities take such steps rs
Is necessary to remedy this.
