FORAKER AND TAFT LOCK HORNS.

TF Senator Foraker expected that he would
4 scare his opponents by his bold challenge to
them to combat for control of the Ohio political
situation, he was badly mistaken. The support
crs Of Secretary Taft have picked up the gauntlet
that Foraker threw down and are prepared to
battle with him ON his own conditions
A statement has been issued by the brother of
Secretary Taft who presiimes that Foraker is
running for either President or Senator The
brother declares that Secretary Taft will enter
the list for either President or Senator Mr.. Taft
also announces that the contest in Ohio is a di-
rect one between the foes of the administration
as represented by Senator Foraker and his po-
litica machine, and the friends of President
Roosevelt as embodied in the candidacy of Sec
retary Taft
The announcement OF Charles B. Taft to this
effect clears the political field and practically puts
Secretary Taft in the for the Presidential
nomination next year with the friends OF the
Roosevelt administration behind him. 1t looks,

Teachers Troubles.

Editor The Evening Journal
The teachers salary question which
is agitating or community at the
present time, is a vital one to every
citizen. The teachers claim that the
requirements and demands Of the pres
ont day are Of such a character that
many able men and women prefer other
positions that are less ncrve-racling
The teachers day is eight hours or
more, just as the occasion demands,
When one considers that grade teachers
are required 90 be In the respective
class rooms in charge of the pupils five
and n half hours, adding the additional
time OF planning lessons. reading and
correcting papers and other profess
sional duties. any one who gives an
inte igent consideration win easily see
that eight hours does not always cover
the time spent. The principals day
is still longer, when Interviews with
parents. notes and reports and super
vision are added.
II surely seems as II those to whom
Is entrusted the task of moulding char
acter and imparting knowledge to the
young should be worthy Of more con-
sideration.

PUBLIC SENTIMENT.

THE so-caed public opinion bill III Massa-
+ chusetts is being opposed in some quar-
ters beause ii is feared that it will lead to gov
ernment bv popular clamor." This is strange
contention in a country presumably ruled by the
voters. The sentiment of the people expressed
at the polls elects the different officials from
President down to members Of the Legislature
The latter are not appointed 10 office by divine
right or authority. The complaints over the con-
duct of the members OF Legislatures OF different
States are because often they are adverse to pub
lie sentiment and devote themselves to obeyng
the behests Of private and individual interests
We in Delaware know this only too we'll
The public opinion bill and the Peoples $
League movements, however, are designed mere
~ TO arouse public sentiment and to stir people
from their indifference. There is no danger that
legislation suggested by these movements would
run wild and solid or vested interests would be
tossed over but the question is whether the
voters will avail themselves of the opportunities
offered We shall soon have test in this city
where the Referendum League has notified the
MAYOR of certain measures to be voted on at the
coming city election. We shall then see whether
there is a real popular clamor' in Wilmington
and whether the people desire to take an active
part in the solution Of questions Of much impor-
tance to the city and State.

FARNHuRsT MANAGEMENT.

THERE is a disposition in some papers Of
4 lower Delaware to critoise the manage
inent of the Delaware State Hospital at Farm
hurst, and to regard it as an extravagant burden
upon the people OF the State The facts however,
furnish little basis for such adverse comment
The institution is, and has been, conducted as
well as possible under the circumstances. The
State owes a duty to its detectives that it cannot
avoid unless we are TO turn back the wheels OF
progress and treat the uniortunates as in the age
of barbarism And the old method OF caring for
this class Of people at the county almshouses was
little short of barbarism. No if the Farnhurst
hospital is expensive, it must be maintained and
bettered 1t should not be crippled in any man
ner whatever
The figures OF the cost Of caring for the pa
tients show that our own institution compares
most favorably with similar hospitals throughout
the country. During the last eight years the cost
OF keeping inmates has not materially increased,
although the living expenses of ordinary families
have increased considerably.
For instance during the last year the average
cost the week per patients has been $3.50. At
the State Hospital at Norristown, Pa, where
there are mors than two thousand inmates the
average cost is $50. The greater the number
OF unfortunates cared for the lower should be
the actual expense OF EACH.
At the Gowanda Hospital, in New York State
an institution of about the same size as Farm
hurst. the average cost is S4.2o, while in a hos
ptal in Maryland little larger than Farnhurst
the cost is S4o7 the patient and it ranges as high
as Szs2 in a small hospital for the insane in East
Nf,;,e Tt will th,s he seen that there is no eX-
travagance at Farnhurst, but rather the reverse.
