pressive and beautiful one.

BIG ORDER FOR CARTRIDGES
Frankford Arsenal to Make 100000
of Kraq-Joruensen Type.


Philadelphia, Feb. 14.-An order for
100000 ball cartridges has been re.
ceived from the ordnance department
at the Franhord arsenal here. They
are to be of SO-calibre and Of the
Krag-Jorgensen type. Although no in
formation could be obtained at the
arsenal as to the reason for the large
additional order for cartridges, 1t is
understood they are intended for the
troops in the Philippines. These troops
it is understood use the Krag-Jorgen
sen rife exclusively, and 1t is init
mated that the increased order for am.
munition is in anticipation of possible
trouble in China. The present daily
output of cartridges at the arsenal is
10000, and the new order will in
crease it 10000 daily for the next
four months.

WHERE CURFEW SHOULD RING

The father who Is chasing the dol
lar to the sacrifice of his boy must
also answer for the worthlessness of
his offspring. He not only chases the
dollar all day, but must needs go
out to his club at night and thereby
deny the boy even this short time
before retiring which might be
made of great value to the boy.
As we stated in an article last
week, we believe the greatest curse
TO this country to-day is not the
bar-roOms and other temptations
that lure the boy astrav, but the
great and growing deficiencies in
home ties and home sacredness
Let the proper influence and guild
ance be thrown around the boy at
home and there need not be so
much fear from these others. And
further still, there would be no. so
much demand for the curfew ordin-
ances.

CONCENTRATED WEALTH.

President Roosevelt in recent
speeches in his last message to con
gress boldly advocates a progressive
tax on swollen fortunes aid concen-
trated wealth. That it would serve
greatly to eliminate the evils arising
from unchecked avarice and cut
throat methods in accommodating
wealth there can be no doubt. In a
speech at Washington, April 18th
last, he said;
We shall ultimately have to con
slider the adoption of some such
scheme as that Of the progressive
tax 9n all fortunes beyond a certain
amount, either given in life or de-
vised or bequeathed upon death to
any Individual tax SO framed as
90 put it out of the power of the
owner of one of these enormous
fortunes to hand on more than a
certain amount to any Individual
And in his recent message to
Congress he says:
+ the near future our national
legislators should enact a law pro
vidIug for a graduated Inheritance

increase very heavily with the in
crease of the amOut left to any in.
