Moving Toward Foot Ball Reform.

Closely following the action OF George

so modified as TO eliminate the bad fea-
lures OF the sport. II is not to be doubted
that similar action will be taken by other
local school and collegiate authorities.
In New York the Official heads Of the
public schools yesterday decided upon
the abandonment Of the sport. their ac-

The United States and Nicaragua.

III IL is true that the two Americans
lately executed I'm Nicaragua by order of
President Zelaya were engaged In the
revolution, they rendered themselves sub
ject TO capture, and to be treated as pris-
oners of war. The United States could
not imperatively demand the release of
American participants In the Nicaraguan
Instruction. but IL Is justified rDw in en-
tering an emphatic protest against the
execution of the two men. who. whatever
they may have done in Nicaragua, were
still American citizens entitled to the full
est measure of protection by this country
permitted under international law.
A dispatch from Managua states that
these Americans were put to death after
"a fair court-martial, held under the di-
rection of the government" This Is not
convincing. 1t Is not difficult to conceive
that upon examination this so-called
fair court-martial will prove to have been
far from meeting the American concept
OF a trial In which the accused are given
q chance for their lives. There have been
summary executions before in Central
America which have outraged all Of the
principles of justice. even in time of war,
and it is not difficult to believe that Grace
and Cannon were victims OF the same
summary processes that have smade a
mockery OF justice in that part Of the
world.
The United States does not encourage
flibusters or revOlutionists using their
American citizenship as shield. 1t
recognizes and respects the rights of all
the established governments in Central
and South America. II undertakes to
prevent the use OF its ports as points of
departure for expeditionary forces 1t ap-
plies the statutes fairly to insure the
maintenance Of neutrality in cases of
civil war. But II cannot condone acts
of wanton injustice against its own citi-
zens. nor can II countenance summary
methods which deprive them Of their op-
portunity to prove innocence OF the
charges brought against them.

The Slaughter Of the Innocents.

From the Newark Star.
From 2OO.OO0 to 100000 children in the
United States die every year from pre-
ventable causes. The chief statistician
Of the federal census bureau Is the au-
thority for that statement Nearly a
fifth are infants under one yea- of age.
and more than a fourth are children I'M
der five years OF age. 1t Is the conclusion
Of an eminent medical authority that the
deaths Of Al per cent Of the children NAV
he prevented and that 81 per cent Of the
deaths OF children between two and eight
years are also preventable. There Is.
therefore, a ver'table SLAUGHTER Of the in
nocents by ignorance. inattention, neglect
and poverty. Society is not a. well
organized as II should be when Its infants
are thus condemned TO death by the

The Cairo Mob.

The sheriff of the county in which
Cairo is situated has lost his Office as the
result Of the recent mob there. An nli-
nois law requires the dismissal of a
sheriff who surrenders a prisoner to
mob, and Gov. Deneen has executed the
law. Here is another problem connected
with mobs. This dismissed official may
claim that he was powerless as against
superior force. But it is the duty Of those
responsible for prisoners to take every
precaution for their protection. The first
hint of a mob should put sheriffs and
jailers instantly on their guard. and in
spire them to every effort to foil law
breakers. They cannot be held to a too
strict accountability.

The Sugar Trust Scandal.

There Is a growing demand for a con-
gressional investigation of the sugar
trust In It's relations with the Treasury
Department. That those relations have
for years been corrupt is confidently al
legged. Names and dates and circum-
stances are given. Numbers Of govern
mcnt officials. 1t is asserted. some Of them
high up, have been debauched. Many
millions OF dollars have been stolen.
Rascally tricks Of all kinds have been
practiced. In a word. the trust has had
its own way. and has enriched itself by
crime at the public expense.
The only objection. heard to the PROPOSE
ton that Congress take action is founded
on the assertion that such a course would
balk in some. and maybe in large. meas
ure the proceedings OF the Department Of
Justice. which is busy In an effort to
rope in the criminals. Congressional pro-
ceedings. in order to be satisfactory, would
have to be thorough. and tips would nee
esGarily be given to those under charges
trying to escape punishment.
It seems certain that an investigation
will be asked. and the request will in IT.
talk In Congress.
Meanwhile a word as to some Of the
comment on the scandal Let us not for
get that the sugar trust has no politics.
Mr.. Havemeyer years ago confessed that
the organisation In campaign years con-
tributed to both parties. 1t is a wise old
rat. and knows all about cheese. 1t has
nibbled. whichever party was In charge
Of the pantry. 1t wrote its own schedule
into the Gorman-Wilson bill. II never
fails to make its wants known when the
tariff is being revised.
And why see in this matter another
proof of the unwisdom of protection?
The duty on sugar is a revenue duty
Tariff men advocate It,
and when revising the tariff have re-
tanned 1t. The item Is a large one In our
customs receipts. and we shall not see 1t
eliminated. no matter what may be said
In party platforms or by stump speakers
How long the sugar trust has been
operating through government officials for
its own benefit can only be determined by
an inquiry searchingly and impartially
conducted Any attempt to capitalize the
scandal for use In next years congress
sional campaigns should be defeated. If
an investigation Is ordered 1t should in
clude II possible all Of the sugar trusts
reprehensible actions in sugar weighing

unlike the poor. We shall continue to

public interests Is such an exposure of
corruption and criminals as will make
the government safe in future against
similar practices.
