CAPTAIN HORSON ON THE
JAPANESE PERIL.

Whether we agree with Capt.
Richmond P. Hobson or not, there
can be no doubt that the argument
contained in his open letter to Presi
dent Roosevelt is clear and forceful,
saws the "Baltimoe Sum-" His
manner is entirely respectful and
his language courteous. And yet he
decribes the action of the President,
in the San Francisco school case
where japanese were refused admiss-
ion to the white school, in a way
which cannot fall to tie unpleasant to
Mr.. Roosevelt Captain Hobson ap-
peals respectfully and urgently t."
Mr.. Roosevelt to reconsider his de-
cision to withdraw the battleship
fleet from the Pacific. His attitude
toward Japan resembles that OF the
celebrated Roman Senator tow ard
Carthage, who concluded every
speech he made in the Senate with
the warning that "Carthrge must
be destroyed Captain Hobson
does not 90 to that extreme length
toward Japan, but it is all on &C.
count oil Japan that he wishes the
feet to remain in the Pacific Ocean
It's constant presence there, he vehe-
mently maintains, sis the only chance
on earth TO maintain peace He be-
lieves that if the fleet had bee in the
Pacific at the time, Japan would
not have thought of making the de-
mand upon the Federal Government
that japanese children should be adj
mitted into the white schools of San
Francisco. He reminds the Prsdent
that the Federal Government has
no authority over public schools Of
California; he reminds him that the
subjects of Japan and of other
foreign Governments had met with
mob violence in the United States
and the Federal Government had re-
fused to interfere The President
knows, Captain Hobson continues,
that the japanese cannot assimilate
with our people. And yet he threat
ened to use the army and navy
against California in the school mat
ter, and urged Congress to pass
law permitting japanese to become
naturalzed citizens of the United
States. These things, Captain Hob
son assumes, the President would
not have done at the demand of
Japan if the fleet had been in the
Pacific. "It could only have
been sense of our country's immi-
nent danger at that juncture, Cap
tain Hobson declares to the Presi.
dent, shat could have caused you
to do these things. By withdr awning
the fleet you will lay the country
open again to precisely the same
danger

NEW ROAD HAS SURPLUS.

Baltimore has been materially
benefited by the building of the in
terurban electric line which come cts
it with Washington. It is matter
of qualification that the earnings
hove fir" Nv hn"nme-- large enough to
us. The October
s that this was the
re history of the road
record a deficit. 1t
ii Importance that such
an improvement has taken place.
The road is owned by out-of-town
capitalists, and took considerable
nerve and confidence in skiing over
five million do liars in tho venture
To build up virgin transportation
field is no easy task, and it was ex
pected that several months would
be necessary before the operations
could be on profitable basis. That
this point has been reached is er-
couraging, for Baltimore wishes the
investors to reap satisfactory returns
on their faith and money. The road
is doing much to develop the state
and to stimulate travel to Baltimore.
It is gratifying that the ter
ritory served is repaying with pa
tronage the service rendered.

DEFENDS THE RELIGION OF TAFT
Roosevelt, in Letter, Declares a
Mans Creed Is His Own Affair.

President Roosevelt, in a letter to
J. c. Martin, of Dayton, Ohio, defends
the religious belief of William Fl. Taft,
PreSident-elect. and answers those who
criticise the theological tenets of the
Ohioan. The letter is in reply to an
inquiry from Mr.. Martin.
The President holds that a mans
creed is purely his own affair, and that
it interferes in no wise with the faith
full discharge of his duty. To allow the
subject of religion to enter the politics
of this country, Mr.. Roosevelt said
would be to bark back to bigotry. If
man wishes to keep silence in regard
to his faith, that is his privilege, and
no one should vote against him for it.
Honesty and upright living are the
qualifications necessary for a public
official.
The United States citizenship and
the civilization Of this day call for the
broadcast liberality. declares the chief
executive. Emphasizing his argument.
he points to the fact that Catholic and
Protestant, Christian and Jew. sit side
by side at his cabinet table, all of one
mind in the consideration of the ma
terial affairs of 100000 people of
many faiths.

WOMEN COWBOYS TERRoRIzE.
Daughters of Farmer "Shoot Up0
school House in Western Style.

ScnoOt mouse IN western style.
real, live. daredevil exhibition Of
wild west tactics was revealed TO the peo-
pie of Crivitz the other day, and the quiet
little Marinette county village hasn't re-
covered from the shock yet. When Miss
Engler, the district school teacher. was
engaged in impressiEg the Importance of
the three RS" upon the youthful MINDS
of the children of the village, three rus.
fans rode up to the school house dooc
and commanded the teacher and all the
pupils to throw up their hands," The
men We're dressed in true cowboy style
and were armed TO the teeth, revolvers
dangling from their belts, while over their
shoulders were slung Winchester rifles.
The teacher and pupils readily complied
with their order to throw up their
hands," and the desperadoes strobe in
and took possession of the school room.
They shot the panes out of the windows,
demolished the front of bookcase, and
disposed of the inkstand on Miss Engler's
desk with a well-aimed shot from one of
their rifles. When they had completely
terrorized the school the strangers mount
ed their horses and rode into the woods.
And now the strange thing about the af-
fair is out. 1t has developed that the
three ''desperadoes" are daughters of a
we'll known farmer who recently moved
into that section from Illinois. No rea-
son for the unique adventure of the young
women is known and the authorities are
at loss to know what to do about it.

GOTHAM POSTMASTER SHOT.
Is Waylaid and Wounded by Man
Who Nursed Grievance.

Postmaster Edward NJ. Morgan of
New York City was shot down in the
street as he was leaving his home in One
Hundred and Forty-sixth street for the
pestoffice Monday morning by Eric H
B. Mackey, a stenographer employed by
a law firm, who then shot and killed
himself. The bullet which struck Mr.
Morgan entered the right side of the
abdomen and passed out at the left side
without penetrating the walls There
is every likelihood that the wounded
man will recover.
The only known motive for the shoot
ing lay in the fact that Mackey had
complained to the authorities at Wash
ington that his mail had been opened,
and that some one turned out an cleo
trio light when he was reading by it
in the corridor of the postoffice. Mackey
had received reply that there was no
evidence of tampering with his mail.
and that the incident of the electric
light was an accident.
The shooting took place in the pres
ence of Miss Dorothy Morgan. the
14yearold daughter of the postmaster.
who was accompanying her father to
the subway station on her way to
school,

best, and soon they walked down into the
parlor, where John saw a sweet, matronly
woman and pretty young woman, both
smiling and both having evidences of re-
cent tears.
During the week that followed John
engaged a hired man to ease his fathers
work and a trusty girl to relieve his
mother. He also hired a carpenter to do
some needed repairing and set in motion
many plans for the future comfort of his
parents.
