DICKINSON as

1t doesn't add any strength to the
claims by the voting machine %contrac-
tors to have Samuel d. Dickinson
stand forth as official sponsor for he
machine, and everybody will recognize
in the long-winded report" by Dickin-
son to the Governor, eulogizing the vot-
ing machine, the stock arguments Of
the contractors disseminated through
out the State in all kinds of literary
shapes.
1t is a question whether the Secre-
tary of State took the trouble to read
over the profuse matter submitted by
him to Governor Stokes as an official
report. If he really read the produc-
ton he took great liberties with the
public patience by stupid characterize
lions of the many citizens of high
standing in this State, including the
Governor-elect, who have objected to
the use of the voting machine, and
want to have the device abolished. 1t
is charitable to believe that Dickinson
didn't read the lucubration given to him
to sign.

2 STATES BEGIN NEW YEAR
dry BEER FLOODS SEWERS

BIRMINGHAM, Ala, Dec. 31.-When
the whistles blow for the coming of
the new year this midnight, the doors
of every saloon in Jefferson County
will swing to, and Birmingham, with
a population of more than 10000, and
the largest city in the South where a
local option measur has passed, will
be dry"
At the same moment the saloons of
Atlanta will close. but Atlanta comes
under the Georgia State prohibition
law, and the closing will not be the
direct result of the voting of the people
of Fulton County. Alabama's State-
wide prohibition goes into effect jan
uary l, 1908.
With Georgia absolutely dry, Ala
bama with forty-nine counties dry out
of sixty-seven, with Mississippi GER
tain to fail in line as soon as the
Legislature c%onvenes, the latter part
of January, and with the crest of the
wave already headed toward New Or
leans and all Louisiana, the solid South
seems to be quickly becoming solidiy
prohibition.
Tennessee is dry except in Memphis,
Nashville and Chattanooga, and North
Carolina is leaving the dispensary for
the strict anti-saloon system.

PRISONS OF THE FUTURE.

Society today is hardly in the mill
lennial condition that makes probable
the realization OF the dream of DR..
Harris r, Cooley, a well-known pencil
ogist, that "in twenty-five years there
will be no such thing as a prison in
the United States" The elimination
of the criminal instinct from men has
not developed to such an extent that
we shall be able to do without our
be. for a long time to come. But DR..
Cooley's plea for the substitution Of
corrective for punitive methods of
treating criminals is in line with the.
ideas OF most other experts on the
subject. To this end the proposition is
good to do away with narrow, gloomy
cells and allow prisoners a larger
amount of open-air activity.
In both particulars European prisons
are far in advance of u own. The
opportunity of rousing better and
cleaner thoughts and a desire for a
decenter order of living in the depress-
ing and dirty surroundings found in
most American jails is small. Perhaps
the prison of the future~will be some-
thing in the nature of an isolated farm
colony where each man will be given
his little plot of ground for cultiva-
ton. He will live in a normal. health
ful atmosphere that will constitute a
vast Improvement. not only over the
narrow cellular prison system of today.
but probably over the system of his
living prior to his Imprisonment.
When thai comes-for environment is
the principal determining factor in evil

MORE SOCIETY ExTRAvAeANcEs.

When people have nothing to do but
pass time away, it is remarkable what
ingenuity they sometimes display in
doing it. 1t is misdirected ingenuity,
generally, but it sometimes has the
merit of novelty. In the latest society
foolishness, perpetrated last week in
Philadelphia, wherein the coming OUT
of a debutante was celebrated to he
tune of $1OO, 900. there was a modicum
of originality displayed in the letting
loose over the heads of the guests of
500 rare butterflies collected in South
America and Asia. The bill for flowers
alone, we are told, was $4,000.
Such l~avishness cannot be accounted
in anything but execrable taste, but it
cannot truthfully be stated that it ac-
complishes no good. 1t at least dis
tributes the money among the florists,
caterers, ct ais, who perhaps car put
1t to better uses than the original own
ers. Yet how much more good could
the money do, or hat portion of the
money in excess Of a common sense
expenditure, il it's circulation were
wisely and charitably plannedl

New ear, Day.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Please tell me something about the his
tory of the celebration of New Years Day.
r. y. w.
1.-THE celebration of the commencement
of the new year dates from high antiquity.
The Jews regarded it as the anniversary Of
Adams birthday, and celebrated it with
splendid entertainments, a practise which
they have continued down to the present
time. The Romans also made this a holt
day and dedicated 1t with rich and numer-
Gus sacrifices; the newly elected magis-
tracy entered upon their duties on this day !,
all undertakings then commenced were con-
sidered sure TO terminate favorably; the
people made each other presents of gilt
dates, figs and plums, and even the en-
perors received from their subjects New
Years gifts. which at a later period it be-
came compulsory TO bestow. From the Ro-
mans the custom of making presents on
New Years Day was borrowed by the
Christians, by whom it was long retained,
until Christmas Day usurped its privileges;
but even in those countries where it lin
sered longest, in France and Scotland, for
instance, congratulatory wishes are now
almost universally substituted for the more
substantial presents that were formally
conferred on this day as marks of affection
and esteem. -Ed.l

AS YOU ENTER" PLAN
IN PITTSBURG CAUSES RIOTS

PITTSBURG, Dec. 3L-Disrupted
schedules. disgruntled conductors re-
signing almost hourly, delayed cars
blocking the thoroughfares of the city,
while the conductors argue or fight
passengers because they nave not paid
their fares, are some of the results of
the attempt of the Pittsburg Railways
Company to enforce the pay as you
enter plan of collecting fare ON its
cars.
The company issued an edict that
beginning at 6 o'clock yesterday morn
ing all fares must be paid to the con-
ductor by the passengers as they enter
the car. This rule had been duly adj
vertised and was in line with the move-
ment in other cities, where it had
worked successfully. The Pittsburg
Railways Company, however, had not
equipped its roads with the side-door
cars for which this system had been
adopted, and as a result it has proved
a dismal failure.
Twenty conductors so far have left
the service of the company. unwilling
longer to submit to the abuse of the
passengers who have ignored the rules
of the company; a number of per-
sons are locked up on the charge of
disorderly conduct, and passengers are
ranking over the failure of the COM
pany to transport them to their homes
in time for their dinners.
Fifth avenue. the most populous
thoroughfare downtown, was blocked
for hours as the cars piled up one after
the other, because the conductors re-
fused to give their motormen the sig
nal to go ahead when passengers re-
fused to pay or get off.

A STATE RECLAMATION MOVEMENT.

There is a large and important public
object in the formation at Tren-
ton yesterday of an organization
with a view to the reclamation of
swamp lands in this State. The Geo
logical Survey some years ago com
puted a total of 296, 500 acres of tide
marsh, some of which has since been
redeemed. There are large areas in
South Jersey that when reclaimed will
prove of great value. Along the sea-
coast summer resorts will multiply and
LAND now worthless for any purpose
win contribute to the wealth of the
State.
There is an object lesson at Cape
May. where a great tidal meadow has
been converted into valuable real es-
tate. In a few years it win be one of
the finest summer resorts on this con-
tinent, with ratables away up in the
millions. Three years ago the tract
was desolation itself. Newark has a
magnificent opportunity in its mead
ows on the bay, which are destined to
have a great commercial Importance to
rival that of the Hudson at Manhattan.
And mosquito ex~tirpation will go hand
in hand with the reclamation of the
waste lands of the State.

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla, Dec. 81
Twenty-three hundred barrels of beer
were poured into the sewers of Okla
homa City yesterday. from the great
watts n tanks of the New State Brew
ing plant, owned by the Annheuser-
Busch Brewing Company. The beer is
worth So a barrel, or SIS, 400.
The efforts of half a dozen men sta
toned in the brew room to keep the en-
trance of the sewers clear were in
vain, and the beer backed up, forming
a great foam that resembled a huge
snow bank. In this room the foam was
nearly three feet deep, and the brewery
officials were compelled to open win
dows and run lines of hose through
them, letting the beer into the streets.
The o spectacle attracted a large
crowd, some of the members of which
came with buckets and scooped up the
beer as it flowed through the streets to
the sewers. Some even stretched them
selves upon the pavement and drank
as If of the cool waters of a running
brook.
The beer is being emptied under the
supervision of Charles Howard, deputy
revenue collector. 1t will require about
three days to finish the work.

THE NEW SCHOOL BOARD.

With the dismissal by Justice Swayze
of the proceedings brought by counsel
for the commissioners of the old School
Board to obstruct the operation of the
new law constituting an appointive
board and defeat the will of the New
ark community, 1t might be hoped that
the ousted commissioners will overhaul
their ~catechisms and take a new de-
parture, a peaceful one, out of official
life. There is now nothing to prevent
the new board from taking the oath Of
office and assuming the duties of the
old board.
The selection of Frederick F. Guild
for president is a judicious one. Mr..
Guild has had a varied training, in
journalism, in law, IN the bench and as
an administrative officer. He Is a man
of affairs and takes a live interest in
educational matters. George w. Tom
kins, the vice-president, is a thorough
business man, was president OF the
Board of Trade and has always been
one of its most active and efficient
members, as well as identified with
local public affairs. All the other COM
missioners are men of approved char
acter and capacity. 1t has seemed an
%ungracious task for old commissioners
to attempt to nullify the selection of
these men and throw the affairs of the
public schools back into the ruts from
which they have now been rescued.

ton has performed an act of msri-
torious generosity in distributing
So, 0oo, 900 among ITS superintendent,
managers and heads of departments.
according to its custom, it is recos-
nized that the trust can afford it.
The custom enables the concern to get
better service. That doesn't detract
from the generosity of the act, for 1t is
voluntary. Nevertheless, 1t pays every
body concerned, employer as well as
employee. Banking houses and trust
companies and other large concerns
are doing the same thing, and it is
good for all concerned hat this custom
is growing.

Nothing is more pathetic or tragic and
Of nothing Is more made in newspaper re-
ports than the circumstance that the vic
tim of the nameless murder on Harrison's
swamp, near Newark, was delicately clad
and evidently delicately nurtured. From
a wealthy home the poor woman, left
lying in ignominy and death. did not come.
She was scarcely from a home well-to-do.
But neither from a poor home did she
come. She had about her all the marks of
fastidious habits, of refinement and free
dom from the pressure Of work.
Such an end for such a woman and the
long. dreary procession of those who came
to identify her from whose homes some
such a woman had disappeared, are both,
with much In the current day, proof of
the extent to which evil snares those free
in the past by happy Surroundings, from
its temptation. AS more women work and
there is more work and pay for women
as greater freedom comes and a wider op-
portunity in life for the young woman,
there is an increase also in the number of
women bred in some ease, well-clad, hav-
ing refinement and not without education,
who tread the paths Of evil, not merely
for a price, but for adventure, pleasure
and some passing addition to the chances,
the excitement and the amusements Of
life.-Philsdelphia Press.
