GOV. DAVIS ON COMING. =

MoRGANTowN. Jan. SThe win.
er course In agriculture is starting
on much to the satisfaction of those
who have been promoting it Yester-
day morning Professor Atkeson lee
tured tot 80 Interested people FROM
nearly all sections OF the State. These
and others who come win ind much to
interest and benefit them in the lee
lures and addresses. as well as in the
conferences and laboratory exercises.
One OF the evening lectures to be
given during the short course in agrt-
culture which the public will be spe-
cially interested in is that to be given
on the evening of January by Pro-
fessor w. R. Waite. pathologist in
charge of the bureau of plant industry
in the department of agriculture at
Washington. 1t VIII be an illustrated
lecture, lantern slides being used. The
lecture will deal largely with orchard.
fruits and their diseases. Professor
Waite is an authority on these sub
jects, and his coming to West Virgin
la ought to be appreciated by the peo-
pie OF the State. This is the only
public lecture which he will give, and
everybody is cordially invited. The
lecture will be given in Commence
ment Hall.
1t is some what remarkable that
Governor Dawson should choose such
a subject for his lecture on Friday
night as The Importance of Agricul-
ture in West Virginia" But 1t hap
pens that the governor knows West
Virginia conditions, and SO has reallz-
ed something of the agricultural pos
sibillties of the State. Those who
heard his address at Elkins last fall
have a lively impression of what he
said on similar topic at that time.
He expressed the opinion then that
representatives of the farmers organ.
izations ought to be admitted to mem
bership in the Board of Trade; for
the farmer is business man, Just as
the manufacturer and the merchant
are business men. We are coming to
understand that farming is business,
a business demanding business train
ing and business aptitude on the part
of those who are to be real leaders in
the occupation. Governor Dawson un-
derstands this; hence the suitability
of his topic. Commencement Hall
ought to be crowded to hear what he
shall say.

sprIngaeId Republ!ean:

The need Of more play for children
is admitted by physicians everywhere.
The development OF education up to
this point has been mainly'in increas-
ing the tax upon the growing brain
both in variety of subject and in
length of years. AS civilization be-
comes more complex, the preparation
needed by the coming men and women
must be constantly more complex and
IN similar proportion. The change in
requirements for success has been
steadily from the physical to the men
tai, and it is an unfortunate fact that
too many have lost sight of the de-
pendcnce of the latter upon the for
mer. In crowdfug the brain so early
in life the physique has been stunted.
with the result that the mind has been
too often permanently handicapped.
Doctors have given the warning. A
committee of Boston physicians report
ed to the school board there, fe"
months ago. that the children were be:
ing confined too early in life. A ten
denc yin the right direction has shown
itself in the schools in regard to
lengthening the recess periods and in
taking the pupils into the open air in
the interim. Spencer has gone little
further in this direction than any
other town that has come to our at
tentIon. There provision is made for
relaxation after each recitation, and
a schedule arranged so that some
group of children is enjoying itself
during every period of the day.
Such tightening of the curriculum
must continue in the elementary
schools. When rightly managed, kin
dergartens afford a good place in
which to play-if there is no better.
But thnv should always allow the child
to invent his own plays as far as pos
sible and keep moving. The natural
and rightful heritage of the young is
reopen air and unfenced fields where
they can romp to their hearts con-
tent. Insanity is increasing at an
alarming rate, and who can say how
much of it is due to the premature
confinement of very young children in
school-rooms?

NEW BASEBALL RULE.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, jar. a new rule
to abolish delays in baseball games
will be brought before the magnates
of the American League at their meet
ing tomorrow. The rule is said to be
favored by President Johnson and a
majority of the club owners and VIII
probably be passed. The action grew
out of the fine of $500 imposed by
Johnson, and sustained by the direc-
tors, on the Cleveland club for using
dilatory tactics in a game at Detroit
on September IS. Later the club
owners voted to revoke the fine, but
NOS until a considerable sentiment had
been aroused in favor of stringent
ruling that will serve to prevent dila-
tory tactics and intentional delays.

Taxatlon and RlaekmalI.

Hartford COurant.
The advocates of the single tax
have addressed Governor Hughes. of
New York, urging him to push that re.
form. and in their communication they
make the astonishing statement that
at present the State of New York
gets its chief revenues from "legalize1
blackmail" on saloons, stock brokers
and decedents.
This is interesting and radical, but
not convincing. except of the extremes
OF language to which reformers will go
when they once start. First Of all,
to be strictly literal, there is no tax
of pny kind lin this WORLD on dece
dents. They're gone. when they Sc
cure title to their description. The
accounts that they settle as dece-
dents are settled elsewhere. There
is tax on the property they leave
behind them. That is entirely differ.
ent from a tax on the individual. This
tax, generally called with us the In
heritance tax, is toll that the State
collects for the passage of the prop
erty to its future owners. The own
ership ceased when the owner depart.
ed and left It behind. The law, which
is the voice of the State, prescribes
how the new ownership shall be de-
termined-and charges for so doing.
That is no more blackmail than 1t is
blacltmail for a lawyer to charge for
his services.
If it is blackmaIl to tax saloons
through the license for conducting
their business and blackmail for tax
ing sales of stocks and bonds by brok-
ers. then it is also blackmail to tan
life insurance companies or banks or
railroads or any other interest. What
It all seems to come to is that the adj
vocate OF the single tax regards all
other taxes as blackmail. Why, then.
isn't tax on land also blackmail?

Personal ResponsIbIIIty.

Chicago Record-Herald.
In consular report from Germany
which was published some months ago
the statement was made that not only
is every wreck, collision or minor rail-
road accident, thoroughly Investigate
ed" in that country, but that "invarta-
bly, some one is held responsible anil
punished for the occurrence" except
where the proof is conclusive that hut
man vigilance and care could not have
averted it. 1t is strange and perplex.
ing to contract this condition with the
situation in this country. Apart from
tho fact that as yet no provision has
been made for thorough governmental
Investigation of accidents and for re-
norts definitely fixing responsibility.
there is the graver circumstance that
no one here is apparently in danger
OF punishment for his share OF respon.
slbfIity for n railroad accident. So far
no one has ever been convicted for
negligence causing wreck, and the
result Of recent trials is very -signif-
can't 20 say the least.

Icnaincer, conductor and brakeman who
had been indicted for the Terra Cot
