PROMOTION COMMITTEE
BOOSTS AUTO Club

The members Of the Promotion
Committee have been trying. for oh.
vious reasons. to add to the member
ship of the local Automobile Club and
with the object in view Mr. Wood sug-
gested that a complete list of owners
Of autos be furnished.
President McCandless. the only mem
Der of the committee present yester-
day. remarked that as the membership
Tee to the auto club Is only six dollars
he felt that the owners should respond
more generally than has been the case.
II Is intended that the floral parade.
which takes place on February %. shall
excel in every way that of last year
but to do this 1t will be necessary to
have a larger club. He hopes that by
bringing the matter to the attention
Of the public in this way there will be
a response and the result will be, not
only a bigger parade but that the in
fluence Of its members for good roads
will be felt.

must employ probation officers; they
must maintain detention home; they
must do something in the way Of pro-
viding school facilities, and in other
ways render assistance to unfortunate
children whose training for lives Of
usefulness rather than for lives Of
crime is worth ten times what it costs
to the state.
It may be suggested that the state
should provide for all this expense.
Doubtless it will at some time, but it
does not do it now. There must be a
beginning and an education of the pub
lie and sometime it will be apparent to
everybody that the cheapest and east
est and surest way to treat crime is to
prevent it-check the tendencies when
they may be checked, cure the disease
before it becomes chronic. To this end
the Protective league will ask the peo
pie of Minneapolis presently for theil
contributions. It is to be hoped thai
the purpose to be served will so com
mend itself to good citizens every
where that they will not be slow ii
responding with sufficient funds t.
make the undertaking serve we'll tn
needs of this community. Other com
munities are employing similar agen
cies; Minneapolis cannot afford to lie
this effort lag for want Of littl

"TRUE AMERICANISM'

Henry Van Dyke in Harper's Magazine.
For what is true Americanism, and
where does it reside9 Not on the
tongue, nor in the clothes, nor among
the transient social forms, refined or
rude, which mottle the surface of hui
man life. True Americanism is this:
To believe that the unalienable rights
Of man to life, liberty and the pursuit
of happiness are given by God.
To believe that any form of power
that tramples on these rights is un-
just.
To believe that taxation without rep
must rest upon the consent of the gov
erned, and that the people should choose
their own rulers.
| To believe that freedom must be safe
guarded by law and order, and that the
end of freedom is fair play for all.
To believe not in: a forced equality
Of conditions and estates, but in true
equalization of burdens, privileges and
opportunities. ... .{E }"
no believe that the selfish interests
of persons, classes and sections must Be
subordinated to the welfare Of the COM
monwealth. -t,s@.
To believe that union is as much a
human necessity as liberty is a divine
gift. - -
TO believe not that all people are
good, but that the way to make them
better is to trust the whole people.
To believe that a free state should
offer an asylum to the oppressed and an
example of, virtue, sobriety and fair
dealing to all nations. r. =.
To believe that for the existence and
perpetuity Of such state man should
be willing to give his whole service, in
property, in labor and in life. RI

The Prison Irvine Plant.

Warden Wolfer reports that the state
prison Irvine plant has made net profit
in the past two years Of $409,452.S7.
This in itself is a splendid practical
showing for the states biggest manu-
featuring industry, but there are other
features still more to its credit. The
prison Irvine has been sold at a price
generally about cents a pound lower
than charged by private manufactur-
ers for the same quality. On the Irvine
actually sold by the prison to Mime
sofa farmers, the purchasers have been
saved $3.50, 900 each year, on the aver
age.' The amount increases as the ca
pacity Of the plant is extended. Prison
Irvine competition has also forced down
the price of other Irvine. sold in Mime
sota, and SO has saved money for every
consumer.
The plant cannot be considered a
competitor Of free labor in Minnesota,
either. The only private Irvine factory
in the state was started this year for
the purp Of driving the state out Of

The Patterson Case.

Joseph Medill Patterson writing for
the Independent makes out severe
case against himself. He has,, he says,
an income of between $4,000 and $780,
900 a year for which he does nothing.
It came to him thru his family. Some
of it comes from the profits ofga news
paper, some from railroads, some from
the Tobacco trust and some from Chi
cago real estate, which came into the
hands Of his family when I it was
cheaper, and has been made valuable
by the people who came TO Chicago to
live and work. He knows nothing
about railroads, he has no knowledge
of tobacco except as a consumer. The
people who work on the railroads sup
port him in splendid style while he
does nothing. Mr.. Patterson says he
is overpaid and consequently somebody
else must be underpaid.
Of course Mr.. Patterson is overpaid,
but it does not follow that he or any
body else is underpaid. The dividends
that he draws on railroad stock come
to him because somebody in his family
loaned money to somebody else to
build railroad. If somebody in his
family had not been able to advance
the capital to build the railroad, prob
ably it would not have been built. In
that case the persons who are now EN-
ployed on the road might not have beer
employed so well, possibly not at all
The persons who borrowed the money
and built the railroad presumably arr
using the capital advanced at prof
or they would discontinue running
trains. So it would appear that who
ever in his family helped to build tn
railroad by earning and lending tn
! money with which it was built con
ferred favor on the world rather thai
: did it a wrong, It might be fgure'
out that the wrong, if there is one,
) Mr.. Patterson IS personal derelictio
rather than one Of system.

The Primaries.

To the Editor of The Journal .
Since the 18th of September many
Of us have been giving the matter Of
the primaries much thought. The sys-
tenn has been torn asunder by both
victor and vanquished, and always
from the standpoint Of the existence Of
party organizations and as if such or
CARNATIONS were to remain forever.
1t is my opinion that the nominating
system, as we have>it in Minnesota, APP
proaches perfection in the light Of
what it accomplishes, with one promi
nent exception and that is-it should
be the right of every man to vote for
any candidate up for nomination, re-
gardless of the party utilization Of vot-
er or nominee, and would strike out
that other portion Of the law that calls
upon a voter to align himself with one
party or another. Then in contest
similar to the recent civic nomination,
all citizens who wished might vote for
either Williams or Jones without frac-
turing the law. The man and his
and partnership with all it's machinery
would sink into oblivion. There can
be no doubt that this is the trend of
the age.
| The primaries have made politicians
Of us all. The preacher has found his
place is at the polls and on the politi-
cal platform, and so he breaches and
practices, and he and his church COM
mittee outrun the brewer and his dea-
cons in the hot race to the polls, right
eousness triumphs eventually, and we
can always count on it so doing in the
land Of the American.
that the majority Of the people shall
| q or1-
a condition possible. The two men
receiving the highest number of votes
in the nominating for any office should
be considered the candidates for that
office to come before the people at the
ensuing election, regardless Of the fact
that there might be socialist, labor
unionist, prohibitionist, a republican
or a democrat after that, office at the
primaries or dozen Of each politica
faith. The sects should be tried out
here and simmered down to two, anc
the whole body Of people, would focu.
its attention on these two. for the cleo
tion. The results would be the
same as we have. them now, the mar
with the largest following at the mi
T. ial step would win in the final tryout
and we would have a great saving il
election expenses and a consequent re
duction of taxation. Of course the pos
sibility exists of not naming a candi
date pleasing to one faction or another
but, the proviso of the present law al
lowing an independent candidate to b
brought out with due notice would still
exist.
Let us open the primary to the pee
pie without the party restrictions an
let us return to the old town meeting
conducted in this new way, every cit
zen having a voice thru the use of hi
, ballot. IT. H. G..

CIVIC ACTIVITIES

Chicago won the second round in her
title for municipal ownership of street
railways when the circuit court upheld
the constitutionality of the Mueller certi-
ficate law. The matter will have to go
thru the supreme court of the state and
after that the companies may trump up
some federal question which will still
longer delay settlement But the peo-
pie have been upheld as far as thew
have gone with the prospect that when
the Mueller certificates are finally placed
on the market the traction companies
will be ready to sell out at reasonable
figure. IT, Il
Six years ago Peru, Ind, purchased for
100000 an electric light plant payable in
ten annual installments. OF late the ser
vice has been so poor that an investiga-
ton was ordered with the result that 1t
is declared necessary to put up from
$4,000 to 100000 to renew the plant This

Hard Road for Reform.

How difficult it is to get "a reformer
who will stay put, is illustrated in the
case of Mayor Weaver of Philadelphia
John Weaver was put into oHlce
by the machine of Philadelphia, which
saw in him serviceable instrument,
first as district attorney, next as mayor
of the city. AS district attorney he
did the work Of the gang. AS mayor
Of the city he did not awake until the
gas lease job was impudently thrust un-
der his nose, and he was told to sign.
AS insulting and humiliating as this de-
mand was Mayor Weaver might have
signed, but for one thing-the ferment
of public indignation. 1t was Mayor
Viewers weakness, not his strength
that saved the city. A strong man
like Quay would have signed; weak
man like Weaver did not sign. !
Immediately upon the defeat of the
gang in the gas matter, the best people
of the city gathered about the mayor
and, accepting him for their leader, or
ganized the city party which in the fol
lowing elections gained remarkable
victory for good government. Bu
here the weakness Of Mayor Weave,
began to show itself. He felt the sep
aration from his old associates. 81
listened to insidious suggestions tina
"the party ought to get. togethe
again. and when the city party at it
second convention rejected his persona
candidate for district attorney, tn
break came. He Topped back to tn
arms of the machine men and bega]
discharging excellent officials whom h
had appointed to city offices. The ad
visory council which he had himsel
named met without him, and apparent
ly, the administration of Philadelphia
had gone back to the depths fror
which Weaver on the impulse Of an in
dignant public had dragged it.
The lesson of this moral defeat 70
reform in Philadelphia is that it
never safe to conclude that the "inte1
ests"' have given up the fight. The
plan and plan after all others hav
turned over in the blessed sleep of 81
curity. They have never ceased to il
intrigue TO- separate Mayor. Weave
from the city party. They have prove
that reform never safely can be mad
matter of one man s leadership. f.
