ToWy AND COUNTRY MORALS.

How venerable ideas are being smashed! Only
last Tuesday OF mankind's most cherished
beliefs was hacked INTO fine spllnters when
a normal school principal compared town and
country morals in an address before the New
York State committee of the Young Mems Chris
tian Association. Surely since the days or lIor-
ace and maybe for a longer period, clues nave
universally been regarded as sinks of iniquity,
fostering sores on the face of society, places
peopled with tricksters. thieves and fiabby-con-
scienced creatures. The countryside, on the
other hand. has been the favorite haunt of chaste
simnlicity honesty, loving kindness and all
the other virtues. But after more than two mil
lenniums Of unchallenged supremacy this theory
is now cast down 10y a social Copernlcus, who
tells his hearers that it is far easier for boy
10 20 wrong in the country than III the CITY,
The rural population is said TO be very Immoral
and becoming more So
Assuming this verdict to be based upon ade
ouate observations, we are confronted with a
remarkable social phenomenon which Calls for
investigation and explanation. The speaker at
tributed the decline of rustic morals TO the III
fux of a very low class Of farmhands. But this
is only one phase of the matter, and perhaps
minor one A cynic might even venture 10 Sug-
gest that the recent rush of paryenus and
rsbady'' rich into fashionable country houses has
exerted more harmful Influence upon rustic
morals than hired men have inflicted. The root
of the trouble however, is deeper and manifold.
1t may be summed up roughly in two state
ments: First, the countryman is being brought
more and more into easy contact with town life;
but second. his contact with it is almost wholly
that of q spectator, not participant Trolley
service and frequent railroad excursions, in COM
bnation with the long continued prosperity OF
farmers have brought the latter within arcllght
range of the city's ancient allurements, just as
they have carried the lowest class of city labor
ers out TO the farms. Country boys who used
TO go 10 bed at sundown now run in to 'the
show or else sit up shooting craps with the
hired man And yet although they sip at city
sins they do not taste their unpleasant conse-
ouences so easily as their urban brethren do.
Living in quiet seclusion and dipping into the
Main street crowds only when in search of
Measure country boys do not have the oppor-
tunity to learn what the seamy side Of the
devils vestments looks like Life in a crowded
city street is on the whole, conducive to moral
ity: if has its temptations, TO be sure, but it
also has its hold-up men, its drunken brawers
its policemen with long, hard hitting night
sticks its takers, its crooked politcians-in
short a walking talking argument in favor of
every sort of virtue Joke books 10 the con-
frary Notwithstanding, the rural visitor usually

all this and he is. therefore, all the more likely

What it's signs OF promise are.


Men no longer look 10 the stars for signs Of
promise rs they did i'll those legendary days
when a watchman cried out that strange iumi-
nary was shining overhead and the heavens
singing peace on Garth good Will toward men"
The old Waterman has passed away, together
with the city walls, the black streets and the
utter silence of the dark hours. The heavens
are besmirched nowadays by so much smoke and
fog they are Hidden by the glare Of so many
street lamps and electric billboards that. even
if they had a message nobody could decipher
it. So watchmen have turned their eyes earth
ward and become reporters interVleWers, Spe-
cial correspondents: and they are discovering
a great many sigus this terrestrial globe
which no ancient Natchman ever found written
OH the face Of the starry armament Christmas
Is bua q fortnight of, and yet Watchmen here
and there are proclaimins omens gravely out of
harmony with the traditional message of the
season.
The watchmen in the newspaper and tele-
graph offices of Iopkinsville, KY and the out
living region saw some very un-Chrstmaslike
signs lust before dawn last Saturday. Instead
of choir of angels soaring tunefully among
the still considerations, the Kentucky sentinels
witnessed a band of some five hundred desper-
ADDE'S masked and heavily armed, swoop down
upon the town set fire 10 scores OF buildings,
shoot down citizens and brutally maltreat some
men who had taken the wrong side in the So
called tobacco war. Instead Of ii bright star
guiding them to peaceful scene, the watchers
saw a furious glare in the sky, thrown by the
flames devastating the town. Neatly quarter
million dollars damage was done to Hopkins
vile alone, and nobody yet knows how much the
enyirons suffered. Had there been even slight
wind the entire town would have been burned
,o tbe ground. so numerous and scattered were
the fires started by the might Riders
What signs of promise did that night afford!
Signs of anarchy, signs Of free and easy crimi-
nality. unchecked by the feeble and cowardly
righteous: signs of lynch law bearing its pois-
onous fruit in the complete breakdown OF the
social order; nothing more. If the signs were
readable only at Hopkinsville there would be
small reason TO lose heart over the Waterman S
report: but was the last raid of the Might Rid

A CHANGE OF HEART.

The popular opinion that labor unonists are

something more than rUnlor Time and again
the efforts of progressive educators and school

some form of industrial instruction, either pub

QDually thwarted by laborins men with union af-
affations. The reasons given for this opposition
are many but the chief one is the fear that any
great increase in the number OF educated work

OF these arguments has been seen by the more
