English In Colleges

southern colleges have been making steady progress within the past ten years, but with few exceptions these institutions have given too little atten- tion to instruction in English. Grad uates, as a rule, know more of other branches of knowledge than they do of English. And only small percentage of those who write sentences that can be parsed have any idea of style.
 This is an industrial age and the demand for technically educated men increases year by year; but one makes great mistake to think that a mas tery of mathematics and a special training along scientific or mechanical lines will be sufficient to fit the grad uate for technical work. No man more needs a good writing style than the mechanic, the mining, or the electrical engineer. Every engineer who occu pies a position of responsibility is called upon from time to time to make written report and to discuss on paper all sorts of complex problems upon which the investment of capital hinges. Unless the technically edu- cated man has the power of expression the facility of writing in convinc. ing manner-he need not expect ad- vancement or success. With a defi- ciency in English the engineer will amount to little more than a drudge
 Southern educators are beginning to realize the weak place in modern peda- gogy. Last year English was more thoroughly taught than was the case a decade ago and still greater improve ment in this direction is promised. Competent instructors can always be found. Let the administrative depart ment of the college see to it that the English course receives the attention it deserves and excellent results will surely be obtained.

Revision By StandDatterS

If revision be left to Speaker Can non, Serene E. Payne and John Dal- zell it is plain that Dingleyism even will be outdone. This was made plain by MT Payne when he was renom- mated for Congress. The scheme of standpat revision is, briefly, this: The country is to be given a maximum and minimum tariff ostensibly to punish Germany and perhaps France, but really as a cover for further spoliation at home of the many by the few. The standpatters will endeavor as nearly as decency and politics will permit to make the present Dingley duties the country's minimum rates, and then scheme of maximum rates will be added. All the standpatters agree with MT. Taft that some duties should be raised while others might" be re- duced.
 The consumer will not be considered if the next House is handed over to the control of the Cannon-Payne-Dai zell crowd. We have no need at all of a maximum and minimum tariff We can today negotiate reciprocity treat ies with both Germany and France, but the standpatters will not permit such treaties to even come up in the Senate. They squelch them before they come to a vote. MT. Payne did not tell Us how his pet maximum and minimum tariff is to be applied, but he did tell us that the proposition to put goods made by trusts and monopolies on the free list must be voted down. He did not say the campaign subscrib- CTS demand that much for their money. He left that to inference. simply be- cause he could not otherwise explain 1t away.

THE HAUNTED PALACE.

By Rosamund Marriott Watson in Har- per's. The cuckoo calls adown the green arcade Where sunshafts fall aslant between
 the leaves; He knows the haunted palace in the
 glade, The white pavilion with the shadowy There grows the orchard with the golden
 fruit, Whose old trees stand knee-deep in towering grass, Where hands invisible play an unseen
 lute. And the still moat gleams gray as ancient glass. Sweet echoes. strayed from other days
 and lands, Sigh through the chambers when the
 sun is low; White wood-doves-or a glimpse of waved
 white hands?- By the deep easements dimly glance
 and go. The golden silence of the leafy glade Now and again seems stirred by some
 faint air; Where green leaves glimnier 'twixt the
 sun and shade Pale glints of gold betray a dryad's
 hair Haunt of sweet sounds and sweeter si-
 fences, Would that at last my wandering feet
 might win To your calm threshold powered in for
 est trees, Pass the wide door once more and enter
 in. The cuckoo calls me down the green
 arcade Still singing of the way used to know, The path that leads to the enchanted
 glade Peopled with dreams that died long
 years ago.

cessor. A slate covering eight years is thus made.
 That slate will perhaps hold good unless General Menocal, the candidate of the conservatives. can break it. He certainly cannot do that unless he can secure a good many liberal votes, or can manipulate the ballots in some underhanded manner. Governor Ma goon is. however, on the spot to see that the election is fairly and honestly conducted. and there are no indications that General Menocal can poll any lib- eral votes. It is, therefore, reasonable to think that Gomez will be the next President of Cuba. He ran against Palma in the last presidential election and was crowded out This led to revolution, and to the intervention of the United States. Gomez will doubt less be elected in November. and the conservatives will either have to ac- cept him as their chief officer or else start a revolution of their own. They threaten to adopt the latter policy.

FATHER COSTELLO
 REBUKES CATHOLICS

The four masses at St. Pauls church Sunday were well attended. The Rev. Father Costello, who has been delivering a special series of discourses at St. Paufs was the preacher at last mass again yes terday His sermons are said to have made a singularly strong impression on the congregation and the one delivered yesterday was regarded by some as the most edfying of all.
 Father Costello's theme was the suffer- ing which the early Christians heroical- ly endured for Christ. He showed that the spread of the gospel was due to the fact that the disciples of Christ were filled with the spirit of the Master. Christ suffered death on the cross for the sins of the world and the followers of Christ in the early centuries made progress against organism because they were ready to suffer imprisonment, hunger and death in the arena.
 The speaker then drew a sharp contrast between the martyrs-those men, women and children of the primitive church-and the Catholics of today. He made it clear that what present-day Catholics or many of them, needed was more of the spirit of Christ. He rebuked severely those who called themselves Catholics and yet failed to attend mass or who failed to observe days of abstinence and fasting He said that many CdInOllcS WIOSe sous were eternally lost began their downward ca reer by neglecting to hear mass. He re- minded his hearers that failure to attend mass, without good cause, and viola ton of other precepts of the church, were mortal sins
 Father Costello concluded by saying that he believed if the Catholics of this present time had the spirit of Christ and made sacrifices in His name, half of the non-Catholic population of the United States would be converted to the Catholic faith within the next 20 years.
 It was announced that next Wednes- day, Friday and Saturday would be en- Der days-days of fasting and prayer.
 At the various Catholic churches yes terday the prayers of the faithful were asked for the repose of the soul of the Rev. Angelo Chiariglione, who died last week at Daphne, near Mobile The de- ceased was born in Turin, Italy, nearly 30 years ago. He was the faithful pas- tor of the Italian church at Daphne and was greatly esteemed by the clergy of the diocese. Before an Italian priest was stationed in the Birmingham district Father Chiariglione came here during Lent to minister to the Italian colony and was, therefore, well-known in this sec tion

Why Gold May Come Here

The foreign exchange experts are beginning to predict the shipment of perhaps $So,OO0,O00 of gold to this country this fall. Some of it will prob- ably be sent this way next month. Our trade balance in the present calendar year is already nearly $400, ,000, 900. and sales of grain, meats and cotton will soon largely increase the aggregation. We are buying less, while we are main taining sales to other countries. The banks on the other side of the sea are full of gold. They will pay no interest on balances to Us. and this means they will liquidate any indebtedness with gold. Spectators in New York will promote the movement, and all who would be benefited by a rise in the value of securities will lend a helping hand, even the Taft politicians.
 Gold imports are not, however, a natter of sentiment or of politics. II We buy less and sell more, gold will come this way, and this is the expecta- ton at present. Every shipment of our products or securities means foreign exchange for us, and the balance will be apt to be adjusted in the old famil- far way. The moving of crops and the financing of new undertakings would thus be promoted, and so perhaps would spectators of various sorts. That is the outlook at present.

ON BRUTAL JOURNALISM

often defenceless despite the laws to punish the publishers of islander.
 Every newspaper" Col w. c. P. Breckinridge used to say, should be gentleman" How much more decent and how much more sane journalism might be If this quotation from the late editor of the Lexington Herald should be framed and hung in the city room of every newspaper in America. and if an earnest effort should be made to live up to the ideal.
 The liberty of the press insofar as 1t affects public men and public measures is the firmest foundation of national freedom and individual independence of thought. The libel laws and the cau- tion of editors constitute sufficient protection to men in business and pol itics, but no law reaches the newspaper that deliberately makes merchandise of fnnuendo and wantonly invades per- sonal privacy.
 Eventually. perhaps, the profession of journalism will establish a code of ethics. It should have one more rigid than that of the bar or the medical profession. When it regulates itself it will reach higher plane and find a wider field of usefulness. There is at present too much of boyish ire sponsibility-too much pulling off the legs of the grasshopper in newspaper offices. Hot young blood is necessary in the chase for scoops" and the un- ending search for the interesting OF unusual, butt there should be more dis erection and more decency in the hand- ling of news after it reaches the desks of editors. The boy who unth inlxfngly pulls off the legs or the grasshopper and does other inruman things is too frequently placed in a position of au- thority in the news department and too often encoura ged to do his worst by a publishing corporation quite as souI- less as any corporation it pursues till midnight and damns at daylight 365 days in the year. The few newspapers that still refrain from unnecessary brutality in news columns are growing fewer as the methods of the worst types of metropolitan journalism are more widely initiated.

BRYAN OBSERVES SABBATH.
Candidate Refuses to Make Speech to
 Assembled Crowd

Deer Park, Md, September 13-William J. Bryan put his stamp of disapproval on Sunday political speech making With out his knowledge the residents around Mountain Lake Park were notified to assemble there at o'clock today to hear him taltk. Over 1000 of them gath cred, while MT. Bryan, at Deer Park, was protesting to 8 local committee thai he would make no speech. He finally was prevailed upon to make the three mile drive and shake hands with those in the assemblage with the understand ing that he would not speak and that there should be no hand-clappng. The people gave every evidence of their pleas ure at meeting the democratic candidate for President, even though they were disappointed at not hearing him, and as he departed they violated their pledge and applauded him liberally.
 The day was one of quiet and rest, with the exception of the short journey to Mountain Lake Park, and in conse- quence MT Bryan prepared himself for the strenuous week ahead of him. He leaves tonight at 12:35 o'clock for Balti- more and is due to arrive at Camden station, that city, at 7:5O o'clock in the morning.
