In France and Italy the influence
of the American woman is not so OBJ
vtous as in England. but 1t is there.
The custom OF girls going out alone
is yearly making Roadway. Former
Iy II was not safe for girl to ven
,ure alone on the streets in any
French or Italian city. She would
be understood as inviting insult. But
that is now thing RI the past. French
men and Italians are accustomed to
seeing well-6ressed girls walking
alone, and no longer dream that this
solitartness means anything except
that the girl fnis companion I'M
necessary In Paris girls OF the up
per middle class think nothing row
of mounting an omaibus alone. They
are certain to find an English or
American woman In the omnibus who
is going somewhere unattended and in
perfect safety. In he higher classes
the French young person is still strict

LAW AND ATLANTIC CITY.

The whole country has taken no.
tice of the controversy that arose in
New Jersey when Governor Fort de-
manded that the saloonkeepers of At
lantic City observe the law. The fol-
Loving is the New York worlds COM
ment upon the affair:
Atlantic City's moral and legal
problems are similar to those of other
popular resorts. as Coney Island
Saratoga and Long Branch. Are the
same moral code and sumptuary leg
islation to be applied to a recreation
and vacation place as to a home and
business community? Are laws to
be enforced only in the communities
which desire enforcement and need
them least?
Governor. Fort was confronted
with the refusal of the Atlantic City
authorities to enforce the law. Three
grand jurors were engaged every
Sunday in violating the liquor law.
other grand jurors violated other
laws. They naturally refused to in
dict themselves or their fellow-offen-
ders. The mayor. the sheriff and the
chief of police refused to act.
On Coney Island the law is violat.
ed but not defiled. To the American
view this is a great distinction. If
the mayor and police commissioner
of New York were openly to announce
their refusal to enforce the laws
against gambling and Sunday liquor
selling on Coney Island the cases
would be parallel. In New York the
governor could remove them. He
could appoint a new sheriff, direct
the calling Of a special grand jury
and send an upstate judge to con-
duct court. In New Jersey the gov
ernor has not the power OF removal,
but Governor Forts threat to call
special session of the legislature and
send militia to enforce the law has
made Atlantic City's officials back
down.
There IS more Sunday liquor SELL
ing, more gambling and more i'm
morality in New York than in At
lantic City Yet on the records Of
the criminal courts here appear just
about as many convictions and inn
prisonments for such offenses as on
the court records Of Ocean County,
New Jersey.
After an, is open defiance so mucn
worse than hypocrltical pretense Of
obedience?

WHO Is SORRY NOW?

As Pendleton's army 0f children
gather for the opening of school wh>
can regret that the town is dry?
People who would otherwise prefer
Tie old conditions cannot bu. appre.
olate the chang4 when they consider
the boys and girls.
Pendleton is a better school town
because the county went for prohibi-
ton. In former years people who
wished to move here that their child
rem might have the advantages Of the
schools often felt uneasy regarding
the moral conditions of the town.
The sight of the 25 saloons with the
attendant drunks and loafers filled
many a mothers heart with distrust
lest her boy might be led astray.
Parents may now send their boys
to Pendleton high school with more
confidence in their security In more
ways than one the atmosphere is
now better for growing young man.

KUROPATKIN.

shown that this conception OF Cen

taken. The fact seems to have been
that he was really saving the Russian

merely a necessary ruse Of war. A

At the same time the American
people are studying the problem Of
conserving the natural resources OF
the country it might be well to ex-
pend some energy trying to devise
ways and means by which other
property interests might be saved
from destruction, says an exchange.
To let a forest be destroyed by fire Is
wasteful but not more so than to let
those same forests burn after they
have been sawed to lumber and built
into houses. Men Of science should
be able to discover a practical fire
proofing process or invent successful
fire-extinguishing appliances within
the means Of ordinary property
owners.

Company is filed to its capacity with

About 10000 bales of cotton will be
