NOTES..

The Anti-License Committee has
attempted to answer the letter Of
Michael Reagan, Secretary to the
Mayor of Fall River, Mass, by a
statement from some Salvation Army
officer, who says that he was once
stationed in that city.
Why can't these people be hon
est?
We make a brief comparison be-
tween Fall River, a license city now,
and Brockton, a no license city, both
in Massachusetts, and manufactur-
ing towns; Fall River leading in
cotton mills, and Brockton the seat
of the w. L. Douglass Shoe Mfg.
Company.
Brockton is the first city named
in the no license column of the
educational" circular sent out by
the anti-license educators. "

ask you to turn back Delaware, now
forging forward, into the slough of
material retrogression and moral rot
tenness where Maine now founders.
Every license state in this great
division of our commonwealth stands
far ahead of Maine.
Why should the wheel of progress
turn backward?

As to Bishop Moreland and the
references he makes: More girls and
young men rode a bicycle to hell in
the days of the bicycle craze than
went that way through the saloon in
the same period.
More are going that way now by
routes endorsed by the moralists
than go by the open door of the
saloon, however bad that may be
when not controlled.
Milford chronicle., 1907-10-04
And we do not believe
he is correctly quoted.

These same people who now use
his name to help foist a humbug
policy on the people of Delaware
shamefully abused and bitterly con-
demned him, when he permitted
wine to be served in the White
House, and on occasion used it him
self, going so far that they demanded
the Methodist church should put
him on trial for violation of their
dicipline.
Their use of his name is most
unfit: an indecent descration of his
memory.

Royal
| Highness.
The American woman, it is
stated, possesses a charm far
greater than any of her foreign
sisters. 1t is true there are hand
some women the world over, each
with their individual attractive
ness, but the American woman,
be she sister, wife or sweetheart,
possesses a magnetism unequaled
by all others. Why is this true?
To what can this be attributed !?
Merely to the adaptness with
which they clothe themselves,
the good taste they display in
selecting their apparel, each diff
ferent article being made to har-
monte with all others, and all
arranged to bring out to its full
value the particular style of
beauty possessed by the wearer.
And why should this not be
equally true of the American man?
1t has been claimed that business
methods of to-day leave no time
in which to study details that go
far toward making perfect clothes
garments that give to the man
that same magnetism as possessed
by the woman. Allowing this to
be true, there is still no reason
why you should not be as attrac-
tive as your fair sister. The
Royal Tailors have made a life
long study of clothes making, and
stand ready to import into your
garments all that it is possible to
give you-that charm, that at
Effectiveness which we so much
admire in Her Royal Highness,
The American Woman.
The Royal Tailors have sent
us what they believe to be, this
fall, the most elaborate and COM
plete line of the newest weaves
and latest in color, ever put out

SAN FRANCISCO POLICE REOR
GANIZATION

With the surrender OF the Schmitz
board of police commissioners and the
resignation of Chief of Police Oman.
San Francisco has advanced another
notch toward regeneration. but it still
has a long way to travel. The police
OF San Francisco have been under the
control Of as corrupt an organization
as ever existed and the police force has
been the chief bulwark behind which
violence. lawlessness generally and
corruption operated. The prosecution
of the bribetakers and grafters at an
early stage was greatly handicapped as
well as were all other reform measures
which were set on foot In all indus
trial disputes which have arisen in
San Francisco in recent years the
police instead of protecting the public
made matters worse
When the force has been reorgan-
lied and all influences which have for
years controlled it have been removed
the work of rebuilding the city morally
and physically will be greatly facil-
itated.

The dispute between the Building
Trades Council and the Labor Council
at San Francisco over contributions to
the Carmens strike fund discloses that
strikes are expensive. In eleven
weeks the former council has con-
tributed $4,000 to it while the
latter council which includes the
Garments union has paid in one fourth
as much. The Building Trades Council
now demands that the Labor Council
come in with $4,000. Thus. here is

PHOENIX, ARIZ., AUG. "a, 1907.
THE TWO SETS OF POLICIES.

For more than year our democratic
friends have been accusing President
Roosevelt OF stealing the political no
tions Of William ]. Bryan of ancient
date and of gazing longingly and lar
cenously at the later projects founded
BY the Platte salesman who. however.
keeps them so constantly and promi-
nently in the public eye that they can
not be appropriated without detection.
So foolish and unreasonable is this
charge-which at the most could
amount TO nothing more than an accu-
sation OF petty larceny that the Re-
publican has not deemed 1t worth
while TO devote any time and space to
its refutation. We are therefore sur
prised that Secretary Taft in his CO.
lumbus speech saw fit to attempt a
differentiation OF the policies OF Mr..
Roosevelt from those of Mr.. Bryan.
The secretary did not take the re-
spective policies IN seriatim. In fact
he alluded to their correlation or want
OF correlation in a rather vague way.
entering general denial to the charge
OF larceny. But he selected. we think.
the unhappiest of them all to show
with some specification that the no.
tions OF Mr.. Bryan are wild and I'M
tenable. He was replying to Mr.. Bry-
ans criticism of the rate law as 1t was
passed. providing for a judicial review
of the orders of the Interstate COM
merce commission. That provision,
said Mr.. Bryan. amounted to emascu-
lation and made the law impossible Of
enforcement. Mr.. Taft replying said
the law providing against a court re-
view would have been unconstitution-
al.
This recalls to US that that was pre-
cisely what the opponents OF the orr
ginay Hepburn BILL the one so vigor-
ously advocated by the president. said
of IT. and next to the rate fixing clause.
the court review feature was the chief
storm center of the fight between the
senators and the president. who was
finally brought to agree to a compro-
mise providing for a moderate court
review. That proposition was not ac-
cepted by the senators and the bill as
passed deprived the courts of none OF
the jurisdiction they may exercise IN
der the constitution in disputes be-
tween citizens.
1t is not now remembered how Mr.
Taft stood as to the court review fea-
ture at the time. He probably did not
give an expression. but he undoubtedly
entertained the same opinion then. for
he was then an able lawyer. as he does
now when he points out to Mr.. Bryan
the folly Of enacting an unconstitu-
tional law.

business and avoid the danger OF for
feiting its charter. There is nothing
TO show whether this experience is be-
ing repeated at the present time. The
telegraph is used more for business
purposes now than It was twenty four
years ago. but on the other hand the
long distance telephone was unknown
then. If people who are accustomed to
patronize the telegraph resort to the
telephone. relieving the pressure on the
telegraph companies. the experience OF
twentyfou years ago may again have
an important bearing on the outcome
OF the strike.

A FORMER STRIKE RECALLED

Twenty-four years ago, according to
the Indianapolis News. the last great
srike Of telegraph operators occurred. It
lasted month and then ended in a VIC
tory for the Western Union. One factor
that FASTENED the settlement of the
strike, it states, was something entire
~ unlocked for by the operators. This
was the great decrease in the volume
OF business which took pace as soon
as the men went out The number of
messages offered the company for trans
mission fell of almost TO the vanishing
point. enabling the company, even
though badly crippled to handle its

One grievance of the telegraph oper-
ators is that they want the companies
to furnish them with typewriters. This
grievance We understand is offered
only in the case of the unmarried men.

young men and the companies would
have no trouble in meeting this de-
mand. ..
