TAKE NO CHANCES.

TTHE Hindu has been bred for gener-
ations untold in filth and squalor.
a He is the product of land in
which plague and pestilence roam al
most at will, deliShting in the fertility
of the field of it's operations.
While there may be found among the
more enlightened classes of Hindus a
reasonable regard for the laws of
health as they are known and COM
monty observed in America, the history
and tradition of the darker race bring
conviction that the presence of hordes
of the more lowly bred among them is
a distinct menace to the general health
not only of that portion OF the Ameri-
can continent in which they seek a per-
manent foothold. but, as the result OF
contagion and infection, a not very re-
mote menace to the health, and conse-
quently to the prosperity, of the nation
Regardles of the attitude of organ
lied American labor on this question
the Hindu immigrant should be kept
out of America unless he can show moi
only fitness for the privileges of sover-
eign American citizenship but also ar
unquestionably clean bill of health
And in case any doubt should arise ir
regard to his condition of mind and
body we should not assume the tire.
mendous risk Of admitting him to oul
national household.

punishment for such violations, if any
there have been, they will rightfully
expose themselves to grave criticism
on the part of the people of the state,
which criticism may and should crys-
tallize into proceedings not agreeable to
members of the commission, if the peo-
pie OF the state are fortunate enough
at the next election to choose legisla-
ture not dominated by the corporation
or corporations guilty of violating the
law.
However, a careful study of the law
would seem to show that the people of
the state are not entirely dependent
upon the action of the board of railroad
commissioners for redress against the
state making rebating and special rates
a crime. There appears to be no rea-
sonable doubt that the granting of re-
bates and special rates upon intra-
state commerce by common carriers
subject to the laws of this state is a
crime which is cognizable by the dis
trict attorneys and grand juries of the
different counties of the state where
the crime may have been committed,
and we would suggest to those officials
and bodies the propriety of endeavor-
ing, by the institution of proper in
quiries under the authority which the
law confers upon them to investigate
suspected violations of the law, to in
form themselves as to the infiiction
upon the citizens of this state of the
peculiarly odious and destructive crime
of granting rebates and special rates by
the common carriers of the state and
the punishment of those corporations
if they are found to be guilty.
The Herald pledges itself to employ
all it's power and influence to force the
public officials into whose hands this
great responsibility has been placed to
take steps toward the fulfllment of the
laws decree.

MENTAL ACROBATICS

GN 0 honest corporation has any
secrets as regards it's man
agement to conceal from the
public says John D. Rockefeller mo
honest corporation" mind you. Now,
logically, what brand of moral turpi-
tude is that which aff1icts Standard OIL,
if not dishonesty?
If Mr.. Rockefeller read the published
reports of certain legal inquiry into
the affairs of Standard Oil, and it is
fair to assume that he did so, does he
not realize that those officials of the
company who. by reason of the authori-
tative posts they held must have been
cognizant of certain details of opera
tion into which inquiry was made,
could n& recall" failed to remem-
ber" and other inexpressibly curious
memory stunts, have left a record
which makes the words we have quoted
from his utterance stand out as evil
dence OF his Grass ignorance, his du-
plicity or his hypocrisy?
When Rockefeller asserts, as he did
further along in the authorized inter-
view from which these words are
culled, that ''the public has right to
the facts" and when Rockefeller and
Rockefeller's neutenants and high pri-
Yates in the army of monopoly perform
mental acrobatics which so strain their
brains and their consciences that they
cannot remember" and fail to recall"
such trifles as the disposition of a few
stray millions of dollars. for instance,
what must even Rockefeller himself
think. upon maturer reflection, of his
Jeckyl and Hyde controversy with him
self?

Gaping THE CLIMAX

II T is to be presumed that the press
correspondents who camped on the
trail during the recent presidential
excursion into the Businesses of Louis
lana, though absorbing somewhat of
the executive exhalations of enthusi-
asm, nevertheless endeavored to keep
toierably well within the limits of
veracity.
But perhaps we presume too much.
1t looks so.
One correspondent telegraphs: when
the president arrived in camp with the
bear on his horse" he alighted, ran
about the camp and Jumped five feet
high between his whoops." Another
states that the president carried the
bear on his horse the entire distance of
ten miles from the spot where he killed
the brute to the camp. The bear
weighed 800 pounds.
Now note: The president GOO pounds)
plus the bear (30O pounds) plus
saddle. gun, etc., say another fifty
pounds, all carried ten miles on horse
back. Just what breed of hunting horse
is able to perform this feat the corre-
spondents failed to mention. They also
failed to look up the record of athletic
feats before placing the president of the
United States in the light of the cham
pion high jumper.
President Roosevelt has been at vari-
Gus times the victim of well-meaning
but overenthusiastic asininity on the
part OF his legion of newspaper friends,
but when they make him jump five feet
high. meanwhile whooping so loudly that
he can be heard half mile away and
make his hunting horse do the work of
an eight-ton traction engine, they place
a cap on the climax that should hold
the pinnacle for awhile.

STRUCK BY CAR, SKULL
is FRACTURED; MAY DIE

E. A. Bedell, 1914 West Twentieth
street, was seriously injured by being
struck by a street car at Fifth and
Main streets yesterday morning.
The man was taken to the receiving
hospital. where the physicians made
an examination. He was found to be
suffering with a fractured skull and
numerous cuts and bruises. He was
sent to the county hospital. There 1t
was announced last night that, though
still unconscious, he may survive.

scare-likewise to score. Does any man
who reads the papers, running his eye
over the space "between the lines,
suppose for one sane moment that any
railroad company seriously contem-
plates forcing the people to come to
terms by steps that will result in cur
tailment of necessary expenses when it
has more business on hand than it can
properly care for, not to speak of the
enormously increased business now in
sight?
The Pasadena News is unnecessarily
agitated. Just watch every blessed rail-
road in America while it continues to
make every possible preparation to get
all that is coming to It, in the fear that
if it relaxes one muscle some vigilant
rival will steal march upon it.

NOW THE BRACELET COCKTAIL
Another Fascinating Vision of Metro
 politan Life.

The cocktail bracelet is the latest Tor women. There are fashionable women of this city who wear circlets on their wrists which sometimes con- tain a Martini dry or a Manhattan, says New York correspondent. The bracelets have one drawback 1t is said, and that is they will not accom- modate the cherry that goes with the fairy cocktail. The other night Pittsburg attorney observed a woman let. He thought that she was paying tribute to her own loveliness. but learned later she was merely refresh ing her inner self with a mixture of cordials. The nip contained in bracelet cocktail is so small that 1t cannot be called a drink. but cock tail it Is, nevertheless Of course, the bracelet is hollow If large enough 1t holds three thimblefuls of ready cocktail, and pressure on an almost in- visible spring permits the fluid to trickle through a tiny hole in the gold shell. which is almost too small to be seen. With one of those graceful movements which appear to be nat ural with a woman the drink may be imbIbed without fear of detection. A Broadway goldsmith sells numbers of tho bracelets every week, and as most of the purchasers prefer secrecy in connection with the transaction they pay a pretty penny for the dr rbiously useful trinkets.

WHEN A QUEEN BATHEs.
Spanish Royalty in seclusien Sports
 with the Sea Waves.

Tho fashionable bathing resort of Spain is in San Sebastian. But do women in that well-nigh tropical cline wear startling costumes? By no means. Their garb is as staid as that worn on the English coasts; very charming, and becoming, but withal re- served and dignified. The material is apt to be dark blue serge trimmed with white braid or crimson serge. At Trouville, in France, the bathers are not rarely annoyed-or not an noyed ?-by the leveling of opera glasses, which practice is vigorously forbidden in the Spanish resort. This prohibition is partly explained by the frequent presence of the queen moth CT, and also the young queen, who, of course. are left perfectly unmolested. Their bathing box Is very picturesque. It is built in the Moorish style, with minarets on either side, and the dome in the middle surmounted by the roy al crown in gold. When in use, it is slowly rolled down to sea, and roy alty can bathe in perfect privacy though the box" Is not inclosed.

GUARDING HIS OWN PROPERTY.
Jackson's Method of Dealing with
 Avaricious Merchant.

Here said the Virginia veteran, Ifs another Jackson yarn.
 Jackson used bales of cotton in the ramparts that he threw up in de- fense of New Orleans and it was nat urally matter of indifference to him whose cotton he employed. Some of it happened to belong to rich mer- chant.
 "The merchant followed his bales with doglike devotion. He could not bear to tear himself away from them. He was standing over them when Jackson happened to draw near and running up to the chief, he said:
 Monsieur, it is damage for your men to take my cotton. All property is sacred and must be protected
 But said Jackson, are you sure this is your cotton?'
 "'Oh, sure! Most sure, said the merchant. I know the marks, all of them. Et puis, alors, this cotton, sir, must be defended
 Jackson turned to private and told him to fetch a musket at once. The musket being brought, the gen eral laid 1t in the merchants arms and said, with grim smile:
 My friend, you are the most prop CT person I know of to defend youl own property. Stay here, then, anc do so. Stir at your peril "-Detrol' Free Press.

GREATEST OF ALL HARvEsrs.
John J. Ingalls, Magnificent Euloay os
 Grass.

Grass Is the forgiveness of nature
 her constant benediction. Fields trampled with battle, saturated with blood, torn with the ruts of cannon, grow green again with grass. and carnage Is forgotten Streets aban- doned by traffic become grass-grown like rural lanes, and are obliterated. Forests decay, harvests perish, fiow- CTS vanish, but grass is immortal Be- leaguered by the seven hosts of win ter, it withdraws into the impregnar ble fortress of its subterranean viz tality and emerges upon the first so- licitation of spring. Sown by the winds, by the wandering birds. prop agated by the subtle horticulture of the elements which are its ministers and servants, 1t softens the nude out line of the world It's tenacious fibers hold the earth in it's place and pre- vent its soluble components from washing into the waiting sea. It in- vades the solitude of deserts, climbs the inaccessible slopes and forbidden pinnacles, of mountains, modifies eli mates and determines the history, character and destiny of nations. Un- obtrusive and patient, it has immortal vigor and aggression. Banished from the thoroughfare and the field, it bides its time to return, and when vigilance is relaxed, or the dynasty has perished. it silently resumes the throne from which it has been ex- pelled, but which 1t never abdicates. It bears no blazonry of bloom to charm the senses with fragrance or splendor, but its homely hue is more enchanting than the lily or the rose. It yields no fruit in earth or air, and yet, should its harvest fail for a single year, famine would depopulate the world.-John J. Ingalls,.

The average man cannot afford to employ a good physician for every slight all ment or injury that may occur fin his family, nor can he afford to neglect them, as so slight an injury as the scratch of a pin has been known to cause the loss of a limb.

Roses In Legend and History.

When the captive Jews in Babylon hung their harps upon the willows, the air was sweet with the fragrance of growing roses; and upon returning to their own land the exiles are said to have carried with them seeds of the flowers which had frightened their captivity. Thus Syria became the home of roses. Even the name of this country is derived, according to some philologists, from "Seri." meaning "a wild rose" In the Sanskrit, the oldest of Tindu myths declares that vishnu found his wife in the heart of rose Since the day of Vishnu, many another has found his wife, if not in the heart of rose, by means of a rose.

Battle with Feroclous Rats.

In battle with rats, Abraham Hunsberger, of this place, killed 2S which had attacked him, while as many more escaped. When the fight began he struck at one huge gray rat with the hoe; the animal squealed and in an instant the loft was full of rats, which attacked Hunsberger, grabbing at his legs and tearing his trousers with their sharp teeth, others jumping on his back and snapping at him.
 Hunsberger dropped the hoe, fright ened, and endeavored to get out of the loft through a trap door. The door had caught" and, finding he could not get it open. he again grabbed the hoe. and, with part of the handle as a weapon, fought the infuriated little animals.-L (Pa) Dispatch to Philadelphia Record.
