DETACHED scHooL-RooM.

The Collinswood horror has set
the country thinking along lines OF
safety for the millions of children in
America in attendance upon the pub
lie schools; and the farther the argu-
ment runs, the more emphatic De-
comes the universal choice of the de-
tached, ground-hoor school-room,
heated by air or steam from extran-
eous sources. And it will prove a
national blessing when the common
sense Of the country has delivered its
fiat, in this line, to those who have
the building and organizing OF the
school systems in hand. I
1t is one of those questions that
does not involve the issue OF re-
stricted sites; no one ever dreams OF
a school site under block in size
in the cities, nor of less than an acre
in the country districts; and upon
either, the detached principle may bt
followed aboundingly.
There are countries that have sui
fered so much from the fre-lesson, II
theatres, schools, and other public
establishments, that no buildings de
voted to large assemblies are nov
nermitted to stand except they shal
Be detached from all hazards, and a
absolutely immune from neighborint
dangers as human foresight may pro
vide, with exits on all sides ant
available from any direction in tn
interior. This should be taken as tn
organic rule in this country, no
alone for schools, but for all grea
centers of assemblage; and thus pu
human life just notch or two aDoy
the all-imperative dollar.

HUGHES DOESN'T CARE"

An through the press and magazine
comment of the day anent the pos
sible candidacy OF Charles II. Hughes
for the Presidency of the United
States, there is, invariably. the re-
sonant note "that Mr., Hughes doesn't
care; of his conspicuous indifference
as to what is done, by whom, or when,
or how; so long as he is not called
upon to express, or exert, himself IN
the great premise.
Now we are disposed to think very
highly of Governor Hughes as man
and officer; to class him among the
great and successful governors OF the
day, and to accord him the iriendliest
sort OF endorsement in the latest and
highest relation in which his name
has figured. But, If. as is so persist
entity alleged, he doesn't care" the
scope of our appreciation must be
qualified. The man who is, or affects
to be, Indifferent to the suggestion
that he be clothed with the supreme
dignity this nation has in its power
TO confer on one OF its citizens, is a
bit out Of the running with the ordi-
nary man who has been trained to
know and properly estimate the gift.
II Mr.. Hughes really possesses this
extraordinary apathy in this high re-
lation, and if he really prefers the
quietude and dignity of private lite'
| it is his bounden duty to peremptorily
withdraw from a field liable to be
irksome to him, and leave it to men
with a keener regard for the superla-
tive honor it confers. He has no
right to allow the use OF his name
for consideration and use at june
ture when other good men are IN
line and demand, who would know
an drealize the rare and splendid
compliment paid to any in the bare
mention of his name as a possible
candidate for the presidency.
America is not in search OF mer
who are, or think they are, above the
plane of such gifts as this. What she
wants in a Chief Executive, is man
who. realizing the dignity and
sanctity and immense value of the
post, shall take it as the crownine
blessing and honor OF his life, and use
lit TO the uttermost in making it, and
the country that gave it, the center
course of other blessings and honors
wherewith nation such as ours seeks
to invest itself. The man who doesn't
care" primarily, may extend the
dubious quality a fraction too tai
when the prestige and prerogatiye Of
the gift lies in his hand.
Even here, in far off Astoria, the
reputed unconcern of Mr.. Hughes II
| the work Of his friends and admirers
to secure for him the nomination al
| Chicago, is a matter of frequent dis
cussion, and adverse comment; and i
would seem that in the East it should
| by this time, have become an issue o
some concern.

ON
OUTLOOK

President D. D. Curran, of the New
Orleans and Northeastern Railroad,
has recently returned from a vacation
trip spent in the East and while in
Meridian gave the following interest
ing interview to the Meridian Dis
patch:
Mr.. Curran said that the improve
ment noted in the business has been
slow, but there has been a steady in
crease in the volume of freight
handled. which has led railroad men to
believe that there will be a resump-
ton of activity after the presidential
election. No one is looking for a
great improvement in business until
politics are out of the way and it is
known what the business interests
may expect from the administration.
There does not seem to be any fear,
Mr.. Curran said, regarding the result
of the election should it go either
way, but business will not begin to
return to the normal until after the
matter is settled.
Railroads in the East do not look
for resumption of railroad building
until investors are satisfied that there
will be no popular hostility to rail-
roads. Lines, which must make i'm
provements will find the money to
make them, and where it is necessary
to build branch road in order to de-
velop an adjacent territory, lines will
undertake such construction, but
they will not try to make large expen-
ditures for new work until they know
that their investments will remain
secure.
Mr.. Curran said that the Northeast
ern is proceeding with the construc-
ton of its second track between New
Orleans and the lake, fifteen and
half miles long, and that it will be
completed within the next thirty days.

MFRS. EARNEST HoCHMUTH, 17O1
1Vl Maple St., Des Moines, Iowa,
writes: "Two years ago our little boy,
Herman, was taken down with scarlet
fever. He took cold with it, and in
stead of the eruptions coming to the
surface they affected his lungs and
stomach. For weeks we watched by
his bedside, hardly expecting him to
live from one hour to the next.
"Finally he became little better and
was able to sit up. Then he commenced
to cough, and in spite of everything we
coulddo he seemed to get worse all the
time. HIS coughing spells would last
until he was completely exhausted, and
his lungs hurt him great deal. Every
body thought he had consumption.
"One day, while at the drug store, my
husband saw a Peruna almanac and
brought it home. We read in it per-
feet description of his case and we
thought we would try Peruna. We
bought a bottle, quit everything else,
and began giving him Peruna.
"By the time two-thirds of the bottle
was used the cough had almost gone.
Atter he had taken two bottles he was
perfectly cured. He has not seen sick
day since and is hearty, healthy boy.
"we shall always praise Peruna, for
1t saved our boys life"

Our President Maker.

In 1904, the New York Sun, which,
in 1896 and 1900, had supported the
was intolerant in its contempt for the
lack of mentality of some five million
American voters who believed that
Judge Parker could make the country
a better President than Mr.. Roose-
welt. When Judge Parker, near the
close OF the campaign. charged Mr..
Roosevelt and his man Cortelyou with
holding up the corporations, the Sun,
though. with a somewhat more careful
choice Of language, was equally as
emphatic as Mr.. Roosevelt in denying
the truth of the charge and convey
ing to its readers its belief that Judge
Parker was not far removed from the
common, garden variety of liar.
That was four years ago. Since that
time, the Sun. in common with the
rest of US, has been able to revise it's
judgment in the light of fuller evil
dence. What that revision amounts to
on the part of the Sun is best told by
the Sun itself, opportunity for confess
sion being given TO it by the news that
Mr.. Roosevelt has constituted himself
supervisor Of the efforts Of George
Rumsey Shelton in the collection of
the campaign fund. which, which it is
hoped, will enable Mr.. Roosevelt to
perpetuate his reign by leaving a
dummy figure in the chair until he is
ready TO take it again
This is the Suns confessions:
Who but Theodore Roosevelt would
have sent for My Dear Hartman to
raise money on the even Of an cleo
ton, coupling with the invitation the
stimulating assurance that "a few
weeks hence, before | write my mes
sage, shall get you to come down to

not connected with the campaign? A

suffering and shame could not have
been more direct.
who but Theodore Roosevelt
would have directed two years later an
investigation by the interstate com.
merce commission of the Union Pa
cifc Railway system, upon the receipt
Of information conveyed by Mr.. James
Schoolcraft Sherman that Mr.. Harri-
man declined to be mulcted further

industry and therefore with great cor
porations and make him the chair

who but Theodore Roosevelt would
have sought, through his personal Sc
lection of such chairman, a contribu-
ton of 100000 from the Standard Oil
Company, to help re-elect himself?
who but Theodore Roosevelt would

simultaneously letter which direct
ed Mr.. Cortelyou to return the Stand
