~ no Is Peter jan!!

One of the clevereSt editorials from theatrical standpoint. ap- bearing recently, was a scientific cditorial' on Peter Pan, which was recently produced in Rochester, N. Y.. and which appeared in the Post Express of that city. It fol- lows:
 Peter Pan was a parsonage ill the Never-Never-La nd. He was q re- markable younsster, as indeed are all who dwe., in that wonderful domain, whether they be bipeds or quadrupeds. Who can blame Peter for his allegiance to that fascinat- ing country? He was hungry for a mothers love- and Mrs. Darling,s arms were a tempting goal. But the horror of growing up and be- coming president obsessed him. and he fled to his home in the tree tops, back to his familiars, the fairies, back to the wonderful lions and crocodiles. back to the Feni- more Cooper Indians and Robert Louis Stevenson Pirates, back to the Neyer-Never-Land
 Every man with the heart of a boy is a Peter Pan. In infancy he may not have fallen out of
 
 .,,>,4iAg the other way; but at one time or,.Qther he has been blood brother of fre-band of Lost Boys, has adventured in the parlous for ests of the Never-Niui,r-.an1 ana cruised it's desperate seas. The trail of that wonderful land is neither long nor tedious. it offers no difficulties to the nimble feet of youth, though the halting feet of age stumble previously over it's bar riers. Sometimes the trail runs through an orchard or bit of meadow land. crossing a brook or bordering a mill stream: sometimes it's torturous course is confined within the palings of the back yard-that vast frontier of child hood; and sometimes it winds through long halls, up mountainous stairways and into commentaries attics. In fact. there are many, many trails that lead to the Never Never-Land. Every Peter Pan has his favorite route. and is reluctant to share it's secret ways.
 We who have grown up. who have become Olympians. often won- der if we could mark again the path down which our flying feet travelled so joyously in those days of sanguinary encounters with whiskerandoes buccaneers of the Spanish main. and of desperate hand-to-hand engagements with ferocious redskins Every thicket was an ambuscade, every tree con- cealed mortal foe. But We were brave. rash, indomitable. John Silver himself schemed against us in vain and the machinations of Hook and Since did not avail We thwarted the devils at every point

Having fed the unpleasantness or SUI
perheated prohibition campaign, that erst-
while Roosevelt Democrat. John Temple
Graves. is now peregrinating the North
in search Of sentiment for n Southern can
didate for the Presidency. He has found
il in plenty in the neighborhood OF Co
lumbus. Ohio, whence he writes that IF
there is a chance anywhere for -Democ-
racy next year It is in a Southern candi-
date" The entire North. he finds. is so
anxious to vote for n Southern candidate
that the SoutherneT would poll more than
his party strength. Mr.. Graves is now
convinced that the wisest course for the
Democracy would be TO name a Southern
man and to place him on a platform of
definite Democracy" He Is just as sure
OF this now as he was a while ago that
the wisest course for the Democracy TO
pursue would be to nominate Theodore
Roosevelt or that the next wisest thing
would be to nominate William J. Bryan.
What has brought about this change Of
front on the part of our Georgia friend?
We know Of no conditions in the neigh
borhood of the Ohio capital unfavorable
to either Roosevelt OF Bryan. We are
aware that the Southern man idea has
been most indusuiously worked IN the
North by influences hostile 10 both Roose-
welt and Bryan, but it cannot be that Mr..
Graves. a most ardent friend OF both, has
fallen victim 10 these influences. He has
talked he says. with prominent men in
New York and Ohio, "and with one ac
cord they express wonder at the hesita-
ton Of the South in presenting her great
men for the chief magistracy." They are
full OF frateTnal feeling for the South
and want a chance 70 show that the war
is over. They want to bury parties in
an era Of good feeling and revive patriot
ism and the republic. The effect Of the
nomination OF a Southern man would be
magical, we are told, in bringing about
these happy results All Of which is high
" creditable to Northern sentiment. and
to Mr. Graves Astounding love OF our
common country; but it does not answer
the inquiry with which we started, as to
the reason why the Southern man idea
should have taken so strong a hold on
statesman who but a short time since
was throwing his whole soul into the en-
ticing plan of having Bryan nominate
Roosevelt and of abandoning the Demo
cratic ship altogether.
And what on earth is definite Demoe-
racy?"

PATENTS a TRUST BULWARK.
Buying I'D and Suppressing Inven-
tioRs n Gross Abuse.
the New Yoik journal q Commerce.

From the New York Journal Of Commerce
The extent TO which the patent law
is bulwark OF trusts in this country is
not generally appreciated. The exclu-
sive patent right rs the one real mo-
nopoly granted by the government itself
and directly protected by it. 1t is not
a monopoly for the inventor alone. but
for any one to whom he may assign his
patent and who may make use Of it or
not. 1t Is seldom the inventor that gets
any great advantage or profit This
buying up and suppressing inventions is
a Sross abuse which can only be rem
edied by a radical change in the patent
law
Every one who makes a useful and val
liable invention should he assured OF his
reward in fair return from its use.
but even he should not have the excIu-
sive use of it. much less one 20 whom
he may sell the right. It should be for
the benefit of the public and all TO whom
it may be made useful should be able
TO avail Of it upon Just and reasonable
terms. Thus 1t could be made an agent
Of competition and progress instead Of
the mainstay Of monopoly.

IneGectIveness of the Director.

From the Chicago Tribune.
A lone director is about as Intellectual
creature as the minority stakeholder.
Where. as is customary IN large cor
porations, the management Of affairs is
intrusted to an executive committee, a
director who is not a member Of it
counts for little. He counts for even
less when, as in one notable instance,
plenary power is granted 10 the Presi-
dent. II BoUrke Cockran's programme
were carried out. the president, the gov

opportunity to appoint men TO pocket the
fees paid directors who attend board
meetings. Whether they would do much
more than that is problematicai

onr Coast Defenses.

Although Congress, at its last session,
made some effort 70 better the condition
Of our coast defense service by providing
additional men, there are still many inn
portant posts which are so undermined
that IN case of emergency raw recruits
would have to be enlisted TO help In
the work Pretty nearly everywhere
along the coast there is a marked dis
crepaney between the equipment of guns
and the force assigned to handle them,
and. moreover. additional guns are DEEM
ed necessary, have been ordered, and
are to be put in place.
The modern weapons for coast defense
can no longer be handled properly by
unframed men. The machinery is intri-
cate and delicate, and requires def and
skilled hands. After enlisted men have
been trained, the wages they can earn
at outside employments, because Of their
military experience, are so much greater
than the government can offer that there
is difficulty in securing re-enlistments.
One hope of relief is visible. and that
is in the training of the National Guard
for coast defense work, a plan which is
now being tried and which promises fine
results II 1t is properly carried out In Sc
curing the highly-trained soldiers neces-
sary for manning the coast detenses and
the submarine mines. which are managed
from the forts. it must always be neces-
sary now to count largely on the patriotic
spirit OF the men. 1t is this spirit, very
largely. which is responsible for the ere
alton Of the National Guard. men from
every walk Of life who are willing TO
give some of their spare time and energy
10 serve the government. This body may
be trained in mechanics and electricity
so that it may always be ready to man
the coast defenses in time of need, and
the annual drills, TO which its members
will have to go. as well as the camps
of instruction. will be both interesting
and profitable.
The splendid work OF the District
guardsmen at Forts Hunt and Washing
ton affords a striking illustration OF the
wisdom Of the plan here suggested.

DEMOCRATIC OPPORTUNITY.
Concentration on the Tarin VIII
Make Party Formidable.
From the Kansas City Times

From the Kansas City Times.
The abstract principle Of protective
tariff is not worrying the people very
much, but the abuse Of protection by the
trusts comes home to every man who
feels the added cost Of living due to
trust extortions. It has been proved that
it is mighty hard to regulate the trusts
by either civil or criminal laws. but they
can be largely controlled by economic
policies-by admitting the irresistible ele-
ment of competition. If the Democratic
party viii concentrate its campaign on
the tariff. taking full advantage Of the
fact that the necessities of life command
extortionate prices even in a period Of
the greatest productiveness and industrial
and commercial prosperity, it viii make
Itself formidable once more. And on this
stand it viii have q big chance Of vic
tory If the Republican convention should
fail 10 nominate Secretary Taft or some
other candidate Internationally pledged
